This cotntry proposes to set the pace in the con. struction of great waterways. More than 104,000 women are share holders in the national banks. In dis cussing the question of “plutocracy,’’ it is well to master the exact facts. Women are doing the work of men in Japan ; but that is no more than right, since the men are working for the worn- tn around Port Arthur and Mukden. Official reports state that the Russians at Port Arthur have abandoned the battleships Peresviet, Poltava, Pobleda and Retvizan and the cruisers Pallada and Bayan. Those who contend that women have no business ability will find an exception in the case of Mrs. Chadwick, who has developed all the shrewdness of a Wall street magnate. Rural free delivery, an achievement of Republican administration, occupies a iront place in the annual postal reports. The party that does things continues to abound in good works.

The entertainment given by the pupils of St. Alphonsns Academy reflected great credit on that institution and the young theatrical amateurs. Taking the pro gram as a whole it was well carried out and was one of the l>e8t entertainments given at the academy, and in a great many respects it surpassed the then tri - cal shows that have come to this city. It was deserving of a full house, but the hall was a little over three parts full. The first piece was an overture bv the orchestra, followed with the humorous sketch “The Sniggles Family,” in which Misses Mvrtle Vaughn, Ella McCormick, Mary Fitzpatrick, Sadie Guptil, Veronica Melchior, Mary Michaud. Anna Fitz p-itrick and Bessie Terwilliger took part. They all carried out their parts nicely and were loudly applauded. “Bonaparte’s Grand March ” by the orchestra followed, after which the cur tain rose to the play of the evening, “The Country Kid.” It was nicely staged and from, the first it could be seen that the young amateurs had been well trained and remembered well their parts, for the playi proceeded without a break. The country kid (L. Ferns worth) deserves a word of praise, so does Zeben Cunning ham (Herman Sander) and Mariah (Miss Veronica Melchoir), but the two actors who carried their parts out to the best advantage were Chick (Miss Sadie Gup til) and Bill Taylor (John Melchoir). The ease and girl like actions of Chick, and the original quaintness of Bill Tai lor made them the star actors in the plav. The play was in three acts, and if the applause was any criterion to go bv, the audience was well pleased with the play and the young amateurs were richly de serving the applause. Following is the cast: Tom Cunningham, lawful heir, Heurv Plasker. Frank Blandon,imposter, Nick Melchoir. Mary Blandon, his wife..... Nick Melchior Mary Blandon, his wife....... Tillie Ellstn. Zeben Cunningham, farmer, Herman Sander. Mariah, his wife......... Veronica Melchior. Chick, their daughter............ Sadie Guptil. The Country Kid ............. L. Ferns worth. Bill Taylor, tramp, accomplice of F. Blandon ................... .John Melchior. Sheriff......................................... Ben Sander. Jim Jones, tough.................. John Plasker. “Gallop Over Sticks and Stones’’ was the next piece by the orchestra. Miss E. W. Macdonald’» violin solo, “Spring Song” (with piano accompanist bv Miss Alice Vessey). brought forth a round of applause and she had to answer to an encore, Alfred Nolan nicely recited “His Mamina’s Scare.’* Miss I. Jenkins gave a vocal solo, “Do They Think of Me at Home.’’ in her usual style. George Dur- rrr • iso gave a recitation. The humorous farce, “Troubled by Ghosts,“ in which Pins Jacobs. Robert Maxwell, Joseph Guptil and Lawrence Ferns worth took part, kept the audience in a roar of laughter. The boys did well«especially the nigger and the Dutch man. Frtther I^e Miller thanked the audience for their patronage, and eugolized the work of the Sisters in a few brief but ap propriate remarks. Mr. C. I.
