Washington, Aug. It Careful Inquiry at
tba State Department derelopes the fact
that no Invitation has passed through that
department to any King, Prince or poten
tate to attend tho World's lair at St.
Louie.
The exeouttvs branch of tho Government
doea not Intend to lsaue Invitations of this
kind except on explicit direction of Con-
greet. Congress hea appropriated no
money to entertain royal visitors, and,
moreover. It Is regarded a highly de
alrabla that there should be no discrimi
nation In such Invitations, and It Is not
feasible to Invite all tho crowned heads
of Europe to St. louis at tho Govern
ment's expenses.
It Is possible that some distinguished
visitors will come of their own volition,
in which case tho President will s"e to It
that they receive every possible courtesy,
but he cannot extend Invitations.

They had orders to "stop" this pass, (o

Anything on tlia "stop-list." be it tho pas

MISS BERGERE'S JAPANESE
PLAYLET AT THE COLUMBIA.
Not nince her performance of Belasco's
"Mme. Butterfly" has Valerie Bergere
been so fortunate In the choice of a play
let as In "His Japanese Wife." now on
view at the Columbia.
Last evening Miss Bergere was the im
mediate successor of four vaudeville
"gents," who sang topical songs and Imi
tated a German band. Such predecessors
might cast a spell of the ridiculous upon
many arilstes. Valeric Bergere Mmply ob
literated the "comedy quartet" from your
mind.
She exactly responded to one's Idea of a
Japanese girl In ?trang surroundings.
O Chicka San had married an American
Senator. He brought her to his home in
Washlrgton. where he vainly sought to
have her fall into American customs and
Mrjt. of politeness. Hut O Chicka San was
terribly stubborn. There was no peace un
less he had her Oriental furniture, her
kimonos and her small pipe. Desperate,
the Senator sent for hL" sister. She sug
gested strategy. In a painful little scene
the Strator informed O Chlika San that
Dhe mu-Jt return to her honorable parents.
Mitre she could continue to live a- her
early teachings had outlined, o Chicka
San then awakened to her love for lilm.
She was willing to agree to anything he
preferred.
The Senator, to assert himself, insisted
upon her departure and said farewell. Fcr
several tense moments Chicka Kan's
agony was o real that the audience rat
held by the magic of her acting.
The Senator at Iat relented and when
he told her that -he nn to rem iH his
loyal but more obedient wife "forever and
over." her Joy was a delight to behold.
She donned the "stilt" (her name for
American sho-s), had the Japan." furni
ture relegated to the basement nnd
charmingly entered upon a :icw career
with a determination to- hive her hus
band elected "President of the U-nited
'late-." Miss Bcrsere's dialect was at nil
times admirable. The enthusiasm over her
work was spontaneous.
A kaleidoscopic array of performers
rounded out the bill. The Columbian
troupe offered a musical fantasy; Marlow,
Plunket and company appeared in a trav
esty: the Powers Brothers were trick bi
cyclists and Barney Frist was heard in a
Hebrew monologue.
A special matinee performance of "Wav
Down East" will be given at the Olympic
Thursday afternoon, the occasion being
the seventy-fifth representation of the pas
toral at the Olympic. Handsome souvenirs
are to be given to each lady present.
