AMUSEMENTS.
Blue Jeans.
Theatre-goers will welcome the quaint
charaCters, good story and stirring in-
cidents of Blue Jeans, which will be seen
at Hoyt’s Theatre on Saturday evening,
October 2L The play pictures in strong
colors the lives and doings of the simple
folks of Rising Sun, and its unaffected
naturalness'is one of its great charms.
It will be presented by an adequate com-
pany and with all the elaborate scenic
effects. Among the special features are
the Blue Jeans Quartette and the great
saw mill scene.
A Contented Woman-
Next Thursday evening at Hoyt’s
Theatre the much talked of, and ex-
tensively advertised success “A Con-
tented Woman,” the most pretentious
work of America’s popular playwright,
Charles Hoyt, will be presented for the
first time in this town, identically the
same in every detail as given at Hoyt’s
Theatre, New York. “A. Contented
Woman” like all of Mr. Hoyt’s
comedies, is a satire, and was construct-
ed for laughing purposes only, and to
furnish an enjoyable evening’s enter-
tainmentf It is said that Mr. Hoyt has
been lavish in the expenditure of
money in making this a production that
will appeal to the eye, as well as the
ear.
The Village Postmaster-
The Village Postmaster will be at
Hoyt’s Theatre, Tuesday, October 24.
-. The better part of realism that is not
wholly confined to scenery and effects
but is shown in characterization, inci-
dents and dialogues marks, The Village
Postmaster, which was enacted at the
Fourteenth Street Theatre, New York,
for 150 nights last season and was al-
so seeu in Boston for three weeks. As
areproductiou or New England life,‘
naturalness is its prevailing trait. The .
story of the play is interesting and
' runs through a series of charming‘ ru- '
ral scenes, which include incidents of ,
farm life. -, ’ ;
.CHAMBERLAIN'S SPEECH.
Obllged‘ to Refract Some Offensive
Utterances,
LONDON, Oct. 20’.’—~The house of com- '
mons was crowded yesterday, as it was
generally anticipated that Colonial Secre-
tary Chamberlain" Would make the effort
of his career. There was a scene Tn the.
house when the debate on Mr. Stanhope’s
amendment to the reply to the queen’s.
speech was resumed. '
Mr. Chamberlain, gazing through his
monocle at Mr. Stanhope, accused him of
using criticism that was neither honest
nor honorable.
Mr. Stanhope interrupted and asked
the speaker if a term of that sort could
be applied to a member of the house. -
The speaker replied that the language
used by the honorable gentleman (Mr.
Chamberlain) was beyond parliamentary
bounds. .
Secretary Chamberlain immediately
withdrew the offensive words, but said
he hoped for the honor of the house that
few members on the other side sympa—
thized with Mr. Stanhope. He declared
that it was impossible to find parlia-
mentary language that would adequately
describe Mr. Stnnhope’s accusation that
be (Mr. Chamberlain) and Sir Alfred
Milner had fomcnted war. ‘
Proceeding Mr. Cb'amberlain said:
“I challenge any one to see. a sign of
provocation, blood guiltiness or desire of
war in the negotiations. The govern-
ment incréased the garrisons for defense
on pressure from the Natal administra-
tion, to whom gratitude and thanks are
due. Never before the administration
and colony of Natal so completely identi-
fied themselves with the mother country.
They knew they would be the first to"
bear the brunt of attack, yet they threw
in their lot, heart and soul, with the
mother country.
“Our countrymen have seen a magnifi-
cent demonstration not only of loyalty
but of sympathy with the objects of the
government on the part of the colonies.
I have been as anxious for peace as any
man, but the government hold that there
are considerations which are even more
important than peace, and one of these
is the maintenance of equality between
the white races in South Africa. In their
endeavor to maintain peace the govern-
ment have shown endless patience. It
was PreSIdcnt Kruger who settled file is-
sue. He appealed to the God of battles.
If I may do so with reverence, I say we
accept that appeal, believing our quarrel
just.”
Mr. Chamberlain, who had spoken two
hours and three-quarters, resumed his
seat amid loud and prolonged cheering.
Presbyterinns Against Divorce.
.TROY, N. Y., Oct. 20.—At the after-
noon’s session of the New York Presby-
terian synod Bishop Potter’s lead on the
divorce question was followed by the
adoption of the following resolution:
“The synod of New York, recognizing
with sorrow and alarm an increasing
tendency toward a lowered regard fox
the sacredness of the marriage tie, here-
by cnjoins upon all its ministers abso-
lutely to refuse to marry divorced per-
sons cxcept it is the innocent party un-
der a divorce granted for reasons fully
recognized in the New Testament and
further urges upon all its
church officers and members to use all
possible proper means to cultivate a high.
moral and religious sentiment on this
subject in all our communities.”
A Revolution In Coke.
CHICAGO, Oct. ‘20.—Thc Times-Her—
ald today says: “A revolution of the coke
business of the country is promised by
tests made of a new system now in op-
eration in Chicago. For the first time
soft coal mined west of the Pennsylva-
nia coalficlds has been coked successfully.
Herctoforc all efforts have produced a
product far less valuable 'than the. east-
ern. because the percentage of fixedcar-
bons or heat giving qualtics was much
less. Now, it is asserted, an apparatus
has been devised whereby Illinois, Iowa,
Indiana and Utah coal may be 'cokcd,
leaving a commodity of C(unmercial value
at far less expense than the coke of the
cast. All experimental plant is being
worked here.”

THE EIGHTH FLUKE.
___.—.—
The Yacht. Fail to Make the Course
In Prescribed Time.
NEW YORK, Oct. 20.———Had the wind
held yesterday the Columbia-Shamrock
series for America’s cup would have end-
ed in three straight beats for the de-
fender, and the Irish mug hunter would
have sailed home without the trophy,
beaten as decisively as any past can-
didate for cup honors. Only the failure
of the wind saved her from experiencing
a defeat more stinging than she suffered
on Monday, when, over a windward and
leeward course of 30 miles, she lost the
race by 10m. 8s. Yesterday she was
beaten on the run to the outer mark by
5111. 51s., elapsed time. and on the leg
home, which should have been a heat,
but which, owing to a shift of the wind,
was a broad reach, the white flier sailed
away from her like a witch.
When the race was declared off, about
20 minutes before the expiration pf the
time limit, the Columbia was leading by
about three miles. She was then four
miles from the finish. Had the boats fin»
ished, the challenger would have been
ignom'miously beaten by at least 20 min-
utes. Sir Thomas’ hard luck continued
to follow. His boat was very badly han-
dled yesterday in spite of the aggre-
gation of talent aboard of her.
