September 1, will have a double Importance. Mr. Miller will bo the first attraction of tho whiter theatrical season in this city, nnd in his present vehicle he Is raid to cre ato ono of the greatest, most power ful and forceful characters over por trayed by him. In the role of Rich ard Craig, tho injured husband of H. S. Sheldon's three-act drama, Mr. Miller is given full opportunity for the display of his genuine histrionic talents, and not for many years has he appeared in a character that so completely furnishes him tho chance to prove his sterling worth as a cre ator of stage figures. In each of tho threo acts of the play there is at least one big domi nant dramatic scene, and particularly at tho end of tho first act, wherein Mr. Miller In the rdo" of Richard Craig, denounces a treacherous guest in his house, does tho actor-manager rise to great heights. Tho New York critics on tho occasion of his first appearance at the Bloju theater In New York city proclaimed that Mil ler's work even surpassed the famous characterizations of Sidney Carton in "The Only Way" and Stephen Ghent In "Tho Great Divide. ' San Francis co, tho next largo city to be visited njftor tho metropolitan run, which was of over 200 nights' duration, nnd which was perhaps the most success ful the actor-manager had known In many years, spoke of Mr. Miller's Richard Craig in the samo glowing terms, announcing that tho perform nnco of "Tho Havoc" as given by Mr. Miller nnd his Bpleudld supporting company was tho most perfect ptoco of stage work it had ever been tho good fortuno of San Francisco's theater goors to sco. Tho result of Mr. Mil ler's fortnight engagement at the Co lunibla theater In San Francisco saw tho playhouse filled to capacity nt every performance nnd threo extra matinees were given on tho last week.

Farrar of Louisiana, presi dent of tho greatest body of law yers In tho United States. "The burning question agitating tho minds of tho American people to day," said Farrar while his fellow lawyers listened with the deepest in terest, "is how to control corjora tlons, how to break up aggregations of capital seomlngly as powerful as the government itself, and how to pre vent the formation of such combina tions in tho future." Uiircot I'vrvnuVx Nut Ion. "Tho agitation for the recall of Judges," said President Farrar. "Is only ono symptom of tho political, social and economic unrest pervad ing tho nation." Farrar defended tho corporation principle saying that it had come per manently nnd that It was necessary to the Industrial advancement of the country. "If hero are Frankonstelns in cor porato form," he continued, "Malk lng tho land, terrorizing and threat' ening destruction, tho peoplo them selves havo created them by their legislatures.
