HourIi, Frank R. Adams and Joseph IS. 1 Howard have done is their musical J play, "The Time, The Place and The Girl", which will be offered nt the Columbia Theatre, Monday, October 26, for the first time in this city. It is a play that must be placed in a class by itself, a phy with music, fairlv bubbling i. sparkling with witty lines, a neat plot and many popular and catchy airs. The scene is laid at a sanf tarium in Virginia, where Hicks anu bis pal, lorn Cunningham are forced to flee. Trouble having arisen in a Boston gambling house, Cunningham in an argument struck one of the inmates on the head with a wine bottle. They manage to reach the sanitarium ahead of the police and before the officers can make any arrest the sanitarium is placed under quarantine for small pox. Tom Cunningham, a rich man's son, wants to marry Marga ret Simpson, "The Girl" of the title a farmer's daughter who is also at the sanitarium wi'h her father and brother anJ othe-sl Af ter the small-nox cm a ran tine is fie. elated, the servants of the hotel and sanitarium desert and the gtiesfs are forced to look after their own want.

She refuses and her meals are summarily cutoff. The guests go on a strike and refuse to work. Cunninghanr breaks the strike by jerking off his coat and offering to meet them one at a time. Hicks falls in love with Molly Kelly, the head nurse. Just previous to the arrival of Hicks and Cunningham, Laure Farnham is sent to the water cure hv his nln-si. cian with a letter to the head nurse to the effect that Farnham is to re ceive the 'most strenuous water treatment. While waiting for the nurse, lie reads the letter and plac es it back in his pocket. Cunning ham introduces Hicks to Farnham. who requests Hicks to hand the letter to the nurse. The nurse or ders her assistants to put Hicks throuch a course of treatment I Among some of the others in quar antine are' Mrs. Talcott and her spoiled son: an oriran crinder. a coal heaver who tries to escape on account of wanting to get married the next morning.

Take Hall's Family Pills for con- From our Kecular Correspondent. Washington, D. C, Oct. 19, 1908 lhe ways of women and the ways of fashion have according to tradition, never been fathomed. A number of Washington men who have put up a large sum of money lor me purpose ot having a horse snow nave met with disappoint merit and loss because fashionable society will not co-operate. Just what the reasons are that the smart set will not exhibit their horses nor attend the show nobody seems 10 know clearly but the fact re mains that the horse show was a failure. Everyone knows that next to crand opera the smartest thino- in New York and elsewhere is the horse show and that everyone who aspires to be of the haut ton deem it a necessity to be seen in the boxes. On the second day of the exhibition here, though the weather was per fect, exactly one dozen reserved seats were sold. Since the anti betting laws have been passed hore racing has almost come to an end in uie uistnct ot Columbia and the discouragement to betting on exhi bition horses has been so keen that even that class could not be count ed upon to fill the empty benches. ror some reason also not known several of the fashionable young ladies who have their own stables and who were on the programs as exhibitors had sudden engagements tv,-4- t .1 irr. i t ... mat jjicvcuicu iiiem exniDiting tripir crrinnro rf Vi n f -... : . ers and thus some of the handsom-' est animals were withdrawn at the last moment. In horseshows as in other affairs one must alwavsl cherche la femnie and in this case I it was probably the presence of J some other woman at the show to ' whom Mrs. Grundy's pets objected. I as everywuere else "society" in Washington is a union and all of the people outside of it are to all of the people inside the sacred ring merely "scabs." And just as in labor unions the presence of a I scab is cause enough for the en terprise to be boycotted. Happily the price of meat and bread are not affected by the failure and there are many people, in Washington who are not losing any sleep over the matter. If. in -fart th. anything at all about it. On the other hand there are some pious folks who take it as a sign of Washington's dawning moral mil leniura and a still greater number of more practical ones who point to it as u much desired result of the anti betting laws. the positive announcement early last week that the engagement had been broken- It is something less than a week since Mr-. Elkins at her own home gave out the in for- j mation that no engagement existed and that the Duke - although a "chawnving" man was nothing more than a friend of the family so that tl ose people who concern themselves with the affairs of the great and the near-srreat are dointr a great deal of speculating as to wnai u an means, i. lie tact of the matter is that the Kine of Ital v nnd cousin of the Duke is opposed to the marriage and has refused his consent. Miss Elkins on the other hand refused to become the trior ganatic wife of the Duke so thnt the affair is off. It is interesting 1 to read in the same connection that I the London Globe asserts that should the auestiorof Alba ninti in. ! dependence from Turk PV be rnicprl at the conference at Monastir the crown of Albania will be offered tn : the Duke thus makinsr hi 111 a L-inor 1 even though he should never sue-! 1 A.
