Bright lines, tuneful music charm ingly sung, pretty girls and gorgeous dresses provide a combination that goes to make "The Rose Maid," which will be seen here for a return engage ment tonight at the Auditorium tho same big hit it was last season. The musical comedy is presented in two acts, and the second seems to out do the lirst In hnndsome settings. The piece was adapted by Harry B. Smith and Robert H. Smith with music by Brune Hranichstaedten in Vienna, and it has proved a worthy successor to its sister opera. "The Spring Maid." When first introduced on Broadway. "The Hose Muld." . with its delicious songs and pretty dances captured the town. It started society dancing the "turkey trot" and tango, and its rich melodies at once become the favorite in all the big restaurants and cabaret halls. The bonk of the opera tells the story of a demure little maid who was act ing as housekeeper for the Duke of Barchester while that gay young aris tocrat was being driven to his ruin by a coterie of European bankers and money lenders. Tit 's jilted by the Princess Hilda and deserted by his friends when poverty overtakes him. but the little maid known as Daphne, the rose girl, finally rescues him, and induces his wealthy old uncle to give the boy another chance. The money lenders are the come dians and their "Money Talks" song is one of the comedy hits of "The Hose Maid." Dainty Grate Klnnecott, so successful last season in the title roll, will against be the charming Paphne with the handsome Marie Crenjer act- ins as .French countess, who comically rhaperonei a Hock of American heir esses that 'figure in the opera as bid ders for the Duke's title. The cast is I large and efficient Including the prima donna, Orelllo Collins, the piquant 1 soubrette, Helen Thompson, that fine character actor, George D. Winn and the five comedians. Lew lederer, Ed- win A. Clark, W. E. Moore. Lawrence l-'arQuhar. and Howard Marsh. A I sweet voiced tenor said to be a new find In light opera, was secured from the concert field to take the important nde of the duke and has Bcored a pro- i nounccd success. The large chorus of Broadwa) girls is claimed to be nut the least attractive feature of .'The liose Maid." that promises one of Hu most delightful musical treats of the season when it is given here. Prices will range from 5U cents m $2. ANTI TRUST SUIT ARGUMENT APRIL 14 New York.

It took a whole lot of money to dig the big ditch at Pana ma. Not a dollor of it was wasted in graft, and the entri neers actually decreased the cost of operations from day to day while the work went on. But even with the cleanest administration and the greatest economies, the canal cost $375,000,000. You helped to pay this money and that is why this ca nal is your canal. You have already contributed your share to the cost of the enterprise, either in taxes already paid or in respond bility for bonds issued.
