Scene from one of the most successful Organist" at the Gennett AT THE THEATERS - Vaudeville at the Phillips. In the face of severe competition and weather of the most discouraging nature, vaudeville at the New Phil lips is holding its own this week and that is saying a Jreat deal, under the circumstances. The bill, as is by this time known to the entire city, is a pleasing one and well worthy the patronage of any lover of vaudeville. This week will afford the last op portunity patrons of the -house will have to see vaudeville independently for some time as next week Manager Murray will present his patrons with reportoire the well known and popu lar Dora Woodruff company. How ever, this company not only presents reportoire but has vaudeville features as well, so that those who like both or either will have no excuse for stayng away. Murray Comedy Company Gennett. Iast night the Murray Comedy company presented A Convict s Wife" at the Gennett to patronage that under the circumstances must certainly be classed as liberal. The week has not proven a propitious one for public entertainments in this city but the Murray company has no rea son to complain and the hundreds who have seen the company's performances and specialties have nothing but words of praise. The bill for the remainder of the week is as follows: Thursday matinee, "Nature's Nobleman," Thursday night, "A Country Courtship," Friday matinee, "A Counry Courtship," Friday night, "Dora Thorne," Saturday matinee, "Foxy Grandpa" and Saturday night "The Texan." Special attention is called to the fact that admission to the matinees is but ten cents to all parts of the i house. The specialties alone are well worth more than this sum and the same is true of the night prices. "The Volunteer Organist" Gennett. William B. Gray's beautiful drama of New England life, entitled "The Volunteer Organist" will be the attraction at the Gennett next Monday. The play scored a most emphatic success on its presentation here last season, and the advance sale for the present engagement has been unusually large. The piece has that sympathetic heart interest which, theatregoers so well like. There i may be those who rather scoff at the idea that a play could be writ ten with a popular song as its theme, but such is the case, and Mr. Gray has presented to the stage something entirely new and novel in the annals of playwriting and which promises to live for many, many years. "Gay New York" Gennett. In these times of utter disregard for motive it is more than gratifying to know that in "Gay New York", which will be given Its initial local hearing at the Gennett next Tuesday night, we are to have a musical comedy fashioned on plot principles and that the actors are not obliged to wade through an uncertain sea of merriment in order to insure an evening of rationally amusing pastime. Another and still greater joy will be the admiration of pretty girls, without inquiring into the reasons for their opportune appearance to sing and cavort in the most approved manner. These are some things to be thankful for, and if the other novel features promised in "Gay New York" are on an equal standing of originality an entertainment of more than expected pleasure can confident ly be counted upon. "The Pit" Gennett. Wright Huntington in "The Pit", the reigning success on the American stage, a play that has created a veritable sensation and has an unbroken record of great prosperity, will come to the Gennett. Friday night, Nov. 0th. Tim Murphy Coming. Tim Murphy long ago recognized as the leading portrayer of quaint and lovable stage characters has re turned to a role of that kind, and is making a fine revival of "Old Innocence," a comedy that held a prominent place in his repertoire some seasons ago. He will be seen at the Gennett soon in "this beautiful play assisted by Dorothy Sherrod and many members who graced his support in this play before. Mr. Murphy is seen at his best in the character of Jason Green in this play for the role is exactly suited to his quite i dignified style and enables him to i

His presentation will be given with full attention to all requirements aud should prove one of the most enjoyable offerings he has made for some time. Repertoire at the Phillips. The ever popular Dora Woodruff Stock company will come to the Phil lips theatre for a solid week's engage1 ment next Monday night, November 26, opening in the great military play, "The Altar of Love." Miss Woodruff comes to Richmond with a much larger and better company, carrying 20 people and a superb band and orchestra. On Monday night ladies will be admitted free if accompanied by a person holding a paid SO-cent ticket, purchased before G p. m., Monday. A 10 cent matinee will be given daily.

Thorough preparations were made by the police department and counsel to proceed with the case against Enrico Caruso, the famous tenor of the Metropolitan Opera company, for a hearing in police court on the charge that, Caruso annoyed a woman in the monkey house at Cen'rral park.

In the absence cf the witness, the detective who arrested Caruso is prepared to go on with the case and act as complainant, declaring that he witnessed the annoyance of which Mrs. Graham complained. Heinrich Conried of the Metropolitan Opera Hou3e, has loyally defended Caruso from the charge, and the singer himself asserts that he was a victim of extraordinary circumstances or cf an attempt to make a false case against him. Police Captain Stephenson of Central park station said he was informed by a prominent business man who knows Mrs. Graham that she "would not appear in court for anything, as she does not want to be snap-shotted and have her name spread about the city and perhaps the country." Captain Stephenson said his informan told him that Mrs. Graham is a woman of eminent respectability.

Publishers' Press Chica 3 r-, , auvt. i WO Lilt author:clSc'als several ties and other government unearthed alleged frauds by underwriting and incorporating companies, said to be the greatest ever perpetrated in Chicago. Seven men involved in alleged fraudulent underwriting schemes were arrested on indictments returned by the federal grand jury, in which it is stated they u&ed the United States mails to promote fraudulent underwriting. Two alleged comrades of the men previously arrested were arrested in connection with the alleged fraudulent schemes. The names of the persons arrested and the companies with which the federal officers say they are connected follow: W. J. Root, president: W. H. Welch, vice president, and W. D. Hulburt, secretary of the Central States Underwriting and Guarantee company; Charles Endicott Brown, president of the Prudential Securities corporation, brokers; Frank S.

HOTEL FOR BOYS. f jat!tntlon Where TonnK'trm Bf7 Be Self ScpporUnc Quietly, with no preliminary announcement, the real hotel for boys in New York city recently came into existence uuder the management of Miss Mary Laidlaw Proudfoot, member of a well known family. It has today eight patrons, proud young fellows, who are office boys, messengers and the like throughout New York, aud there is room for six more. For these six vacancies there are so many applications that at the outset It is realized that a larger establishment mcst be found, and for such a place there fs a search being made. There is nothing of charity about the establishment. Each one pays according to his means, and that gives him the privilege of having his own room, his own possessions, with only the restrictions of good conduct and good order to continue him on the hotel register. Miss Proudfoot is the niece of th. late Mrs. Mary Laidlaw, who during her life devoted much of her means to the helping of boys. She established the Eighth Ward mission, where the youngsters, were educated and trained, and after her death Miss Proudfoot continued the work. Each year there come from orphanages and asylums an army of boys to New York. These range from twelve to fourteen years of age, and they go to work at a wage that would not ov erage more than 55, it tnat. xney must live somewhere, and usually they go to a corner of a tenement room. This kind of boys are welcomed at the Boys' hotel. Each is expected to put a certain amount into the household fund, and it does not matter how small tt Is.

11 The Starr 931 PARTY FDR WHITE SENATOR MORGAN'S IDEA He Wants Democracy to Declare Itself In Favor of a Political Organization With No Negroes in the Membership. IPublishers Fresj Washington, Nov. 21. Senator Morgan of Alabama created a ripple of excitement here by advocating a declaration on the part of the Democratic party that it is a white man's party. The senator says at the next national' Democratic convention he will propose a resolution for adoption subUantially as follows: "Resolved, that the Democratic party of the United States is and always has been a white man's party." He thinks tfiat the adoption of such a plank would result in overtopping all other issues and surely elect a Democratic president. He says the people of the north will sooner or later have to face the negro problem, just as the south has had to struggle with it, and that the quicker it Is met the better it will be for all concerned. He declares that a proper Interpretation of the constitution leaves no place for the negro or the Indian in the enjoyment of the benefits conferred by that instrument. CASTOR! A Fc 7.
