than on heavy receipts. An occasional
coop of broilers Is beginning to strag

Mshcd as yul. Receipts of calves at
the yards were light, and the market
wa« Arm Butter and eggs are hold
ing steady, but neither Is very strong.
The murket Is pretty well supplied with
strawberries now. Stock Is arriving in
good average condition and finds a

prospective purchasers feared they
were buying more litigation than any

THE STAGE
GARRICK.
Aftsr seeing “The Taming of the
Shrew,’* even s suffragette would have
to acknowledge that every woman
love* a masterful man. at least, If the
master should bs anything like Mr.
Sothern’s Petruchlo, and the woman
the prototype of Miss Marlowe's Kath
erines M seen Wednesday evening, in
the Oarrlck theater. A houseful of
people, occupying every nook and
corner of tbs theater, and a fashion
able gathering it was, too, laughed Im
moderately at this boisterous farce
of Shakespeare's. There seemed to be
a suspiciously enthusiastic demon
stration of approval at times from
the men spectators aa Petruchlo made
Katherine “stand around’* or scored
one against the proud and scornful
beauty.
Petruchlo ia one of Mr. Sothern’a
happiest conceptions. He plays the
braggart with a skill that loses none
of Its effect because his artistry em
ables him to convey to the spectator
that Petruchlo la really acting a part.
He carries the air of keen scent of
the game throughout, and if Katherine
is driven into submission through
sheer mental and physical fatigue,
Petruchlo shows no signs of lessening
strength of arm or will and roars and
bailies and swaggers everyone wlthlu
hearing into a sense of fear of his
temper and Importance, to the very
end of the capitulation of hla lady to
her lord and master.
Miss Marlowe’s Katherine is as de
lightful in its tempestuous moods as
in the softer moments. Her imperson
ation is subtlety—different to Ada
Rehac’s acting of the part Miss
Rehan for years was considered the
best Katherine the Cngllah-spcaklng
stage ever offered and in the minds of
her loyal admirers %till occupies that
pedestal of perfection. As Miss Rehan
played the part to the. ePtruchlo of
Otis Skinner, In the Detroit opera
house about ten years ago, her pres
entation Is still to be remembered In
comparison wit hthat of Miss Mar
lowe. The latter has the advantage
of beauty and certain attributes with
which nature failed to endow Miss
Rehan. Miss Marlowe is very adept
in delineating delicate gradations of
character, and this gift has ample
scope In the part of Katherine, whose
peppery disposition and strong will
are the terror of her household when
Petruchio's keen eyes fall upon her
in admiration and he determines to
win her and to take his own way and
time to mold her into a docile wife.
The molding process is revealed by
Mlse Marlowe with flne effect.
The farce is played by the distin
guished co-stars and their company,
in a high comedy key throughout, and
the fun was as fast and furious for
the audience as it was for the play
ers. Every member of the company
measured up to hie or her own high
standard set in the previous plays pre
sented, and not in the memory of
the oldest or youngest* theatergoer
qould a more admirable and enjoyable
presentation of “The Taming of the
sbrew“ be discovered.
The staging Is excellently carried
out, showing the ever-preeent pains
taking regard and originality for
which the Sother%-Marlowe stage
productions are famous.
Thursday evening, “The Merchant
Os Venice" will ..be given and Friday
evening, “Hamlet.”
Fair Actresses Disdain
Stage Door Spring Poets
In Racine, 111., some poor stage-door

ty little maid who is many miles

WEBT.
Carew had no sooner arrived in tho
thoater, Monday morning, than the
stage manager handed her a letter,
postmarked “Racine.” Inside was a
tender missive, inclosing a “pome”
that ran like this:
Olive, dear, do you remember when I
chanced to nee you last?
Love. 1 alt and weep and ponder o’er
the memorlea of the past.
I know that time doth all things
change; now you’re many miles
away—
Vain hope Is all that’s left me that I
see you some sweet day.
Every cloud has a sliver lining back
behind the misty end;
Cherished hopes now seem to ssy. dear,
that I’ve won you as a friend.
After all, life’s what we make It, and
today I’m really sad:
Really, you're the one that sure can
change It and make me very glad.
Empty out your little heart, dear, love
me Just a little bit;
Won’t you send one ray of hope, dear,
and I swear I’ll do the rest.
The poet, whoever ho Is, has takeu
the trouble to make the Initial let
ters of his love-sick verses spell the
name of th eadoced one. Mist Carew
and her fair partner enjoyed a good
laugh at the expense of the former's
unknown admirer. But poets seem to
come In palm down In RaclQc, for the
next mall brought Miss West a set of
versee that for ardent love put the
others In the shade.
"I remember a couple of fellows
hrnflng around the stage door a good
deal In Racine and once or twice
they tried to speak to us. but we hur-,

BISHOP WILLIAMS ÜBGES
CAUTION IH MARRIAGE
Says Clergy Should See That
Contracting Parties Are
Physically Sound
Bishop Charles D. Williams, In ad
dressing the Michigan diocesan con
, ventlon, in Christ church, Wednesday
afternoon, made a plea for clergymen
ito exercise greater care In marrying
couples. The clergy, he said, should
j see to It that the people who come to
them to be married are physically lit,
and should not perform a ceremony un*
> less the contracting parties or the
! witnesses are known to the pastor
1 called on.
The bishop said, in part:
"The law plainly prohlblta under
most heavy penalties the marriage of
any persons afflicted with certain dis
eases. It provides for prosecutions In
such cases, wherein husbands are
obliged to testify against wives and
wives against husbands, contrary to
the usual legal exemption.
“It forbids under heavy penalties
any one aiding in or abetting such
marriages. And then It distinctly de
clares ‘that all Justices of the peace
: and ministers of the gospel are here
by authorised and required before
solemnising any marriage to examine
at least one of the parties on oath,
which oath they are hereby authoris
ed to administer as to the legality of
such intended marriage.”’
The Michigan State homeopathic
society, In its closing meeting, Wed
nesday afternoon, adopted a resolu
tion, urging the members to assist In
every way possible to bring about an
enforcement of the law which pro
vides that persons afflicted with cer
tain diseases shall not be married;
also asking that these diseases be
listed with other and communicable
diseases dangerous to the public
health.
SAYS PRESIDENT TAFTS
DOOM HAS BEEN SEALED
(CoithuH fro* Page Om.)
delegates. The only way In which
the Taft forces could possibly pre
vent Roosevelt’s nomination now
would be to decide every contest, no
matter how flimsy or fraudulent, in
favor of Taft, and thus pack the con
vention hall with a crowd of hand
plcked delegates not the result of the
primaries nor representative of the
sentiment in the party.
Nobody expects the national com
mittee to undertake high-handed fraud
or force of this character, but should
It do so the results would be sensa
tional in the extreme.
Roosevelt has said frankly that he
Is willing to abide by the reaults of
the popular vote, but that he Is not
willing to abide by the results of
fraud or politloal force.
It la expected now that all theae un
certainties will, within a few days, be
swept away In the rush of the band
wagon sentiment.
Everybody in Washington regards
the fight as over and even Director
MeKlnley and the staunchest of Taft’s
supporters will find It hard to con
tinue to keep up even the appearance
of reelatence.
The sltuatiop Is best reflected In an
editorial printed In the New York
Sun. which concedes Taft’s defeat and
Roosevelt’s victory and calls upon the
Democratic party to put up a fight to
defeat Roosevelt. When a Taft or
gan like the Sun throws up the sponge
there Is not much more to be said.
! Taft and T. R. Appeal
to New Jersey Voters
TRENTON, N. J., May 23.—Presi
dent Taft and his predecessor In of
fice, Theodore Roosevelt, transferred
their activities to New Jersey today
and from now until next Tuesday will
speak to the voters In an effort to
win supremacy in the primaries.
Senator LaFollette "got the jump”
on them by making the first speech
In Jersey City, last night, where he
assured a large and enthusiastic audi
ence that after “the smoke cleared
away”- he would be the Republican
nominee. .
The fight lii the Republican ranks
will prove bitter and the two leading
aspirants have so arranged their
Itinerary that they will cover every
section of the state.
President Taft makes three
speeches tonight, at Camden, Burling
ton and Trenton. He will keep on
the go until next Tuesday noon, quit
ting only when the ballot boxes are
opened for the primaries.
Col. Roosevelt started his speaking
campaign at Paterson at noon today
and before he quits tonight he will
have spoken in Pasealc, Hackensack,
Orange, Rutherford, Belleville, Bloom
field, Montclair, Newark and Jersey
City.
Control of Two Ohio
Conventions in Doubt
COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 23.—Con
trol of both the coming Democratic
and Republican conventions next
month appears in doubt today.
Where yesterday the Roosevelt
forces were making no claims in re
gard to the Republican convention,
which will elect six delegates-at
lnrge to the national convention, they
are now claiming that Roosevelt will
have a slight majority. There will be
769 delegates. The Roosevelt forces
are now claiming 387, conceding 372
to Taft.
The Harmon forces, at first confi
dent of controlling the Democratic
state convention, which has power to
order the unit rule of voting on the
entire Ohio delegation to the nation
al convention, are now uncertain or
their strength.
Mayor Baker, of Cleveland. State
Chairman E W. Hanley, of Dayton,
besides anti-llarmon lenders In Cin
cinnati. Toledo and other places are
expected to lead the fight against the
unit rule.

Sheehan Has Carried
English Opera To Success

JOBEPH BHEEHAN.
The exception to prove the rule of
the truism of the old proverb, “A
prophet Is without honor in his own
country,’’ is Joseph F. Sheehan now
appearing with his own English com
pany, in the Detroit opera house. Mr.
Sheehan has made opera in English
an artistic and box office success, in
the face of almost insurmountable
obstacles and after such resourceful
producers as Henry W. Savage have
given up the game.
The announcement that the Metro
politan opera company will at last un
bend from Its false dignity and pro
duce operas In English has been a
source of great gratification to Mr.
Sheehan. Unlike most producers, he
welcomes, rather than deplores, com
petition. It is his contention that the
more good companies presenting
opera In English the more familiar
the American public will become with
a higher class of music. Observation
has proven that famlliarty with the
operas is all that is necessary to de
velop muelc lovers. Mr. Sheehan la
surcharged with what he calls “Amer
lcanltls.” In a recent address to a
body of music students, he said: “If
I could Impress upon the American
music student the utter fallacy of go
ing to Europe for their musical edu
cation, I would, Indeed, be happy.
