Man Haters at Daly's and Women Haters at Waflacka Provide Muoh Fun. Special April Fool's Day matinees were in progress at Daly's and at WaUaok's yesterday. The matinee at Daly's, owing to. the satire of Clyde Fitch's play. Girls, had appropriately been named a Man Haters' Matinee." and re ticket bad been mailed to some 2uO women who had sent requests and formally declared themselves as haters of th stronger sex.

The matinee across the street. In striking contrast, had been dubbed the Woman Haters' Matinee "and the woman haters, It must be admitted, had rather the best of the fun. At Daly's the man haters came In unobtrusively and took their seats without uproar or comment, relieved to find that their contempt for the male sex had for once served a good purpose. Across the street It was entirely different. A special box, office.

Inside the rail, had been set sslde for the applications of alleged woman haters, of whom more appeared upon the scene than even the busy press agent of A Knight tor a Day had dared to hope. In this box office were four especially entrancing young women from the company, and it was their pleasant duty to put th applicant through a course of sprouts before giving him a free ticket. Tney nan license to try cajolery and all other feminine arguments to make the woman haters relont and buy seats at th regular prices. And manv of the men. who enjoyed th fun as much as the onlookers, relented.

The score or more of brave men who persisted, eacn received a tool's cap and a free seat. They had each to sign a document stating that they absolutely despised women ot all kinds, and agreeing to wear th caps during th performance. The fun reached Its climax a few minutes after the beginning of the performance, when a large banner droSped down over the left-side boxes. This banner bore the strange device: Human Zoo. Women haters are In these boxes below." The audience broke into a roar of laughter, and th girls on the stage pelted the women haters with rice, hops, and confetti.

When some of the men tried to make their escape through the stag door they were literally fallen upon and vanquished by the chorus girls. Fidello 8ung at the Metropolitan. Fidello was sung for the third and last time this season at th Metropolitan Opera House last evening under the direction of Gustav Mahler. The cast Included Mmea Morena and Alten and Messrs.

The Easter Number of The Times will also include a section devoted entirely to a presentation of the fashions for women during the Spring and Summer seasons.

The designs include gowns of many sorts suitable for morning, afternoon and evening wear, and millinery for all possible occasions. In all, this Fashion Section will be one high above the ordinary productions along this line one of quite unusual attractiveness and of real value to women.

Orders for The Times Easter Number should be placed; with newsdealers at once.

GHAMCELLOR DAY IS Charges In Connection with His Criticisms of Roosevelt Ols-. missed by Conference, LAUGHED OUT OF MEETING Stvtro Criticism of Bishop Potter and Aliened Statement by Cardinal Gibbons on Raoo Track Question. The charges brought against the Rev.

Dr. James Day. Chancellor ot Syracuse University, by the Rev. George A- Cook et Brandon. Vt on aooeunt of bis attack on President Roosevelt and hi policies, were dismissed yesterday by Bishop David H- Moore et Portland.

Oregon, at the opening session os tne new Tork Methodist Episcopal Conference at St. James' Church. Madison Avenue and 128th Street, amid tn laughter ot th 400 brethren present. The Rev. Mr.

Cook, who Is a member of the Troy Conference, filed th charge several weeks ago, alleging' that Chancellor Day-was guilty ot violating- Paragraph 30 of the General Rules ot the Methodist Episcopal Church, by defaming the character of th President, Th charge enumerated five oounts oa which th defamation of character was based, liberal quotations from Chancellor Day'a book. -The Raid on Prosperity being cited and particularly the following extract from an Interview purported to have been given outby him at Syracuse In May. 1900: Anarchy of the rt praetleed by Fresideat Rooaavelt la th most eaiureroaa kind Of anar chy. Anarchism la the Whit Hons is the most perilous anarchism that has ever threatened our country. It means anarchy the Judges era to be set aslda and their verdicts upheld to criticism by tn sraeiaerM.

Bishop Moore, in ruling- the charges out of court, said: I rule these etiarges out an the around, ta the first place, that there Is attached to them no sUmature of any member of this conference nor of any man who has been slandered nor his representative. Now allow to say further that while it Is bad policy to mutilats a corpae. It is also bad policy to let these changes die without a little tnrture. T.nurt arjDlause.1 I suppose our annual conference is sufficient to Judge of the general character and good name of Its members, and it ought to be a aettled mattes that a member ef aa alien conference cannot attack the character ot a member of another conferenoe. The time has come wbea there should be an amendment to the lules of the General Conference that no man, no matter how high hi a motives, shall have the right to leap conference bonds and bring charges against another roan.

The thing has gone too far: It must be stepped. Of course, there la the Inalienable right of any man to present oomplalnts, but some member of the conference In which he who is complained against Uvea must sign the complaint. In the nest place these charges are absurd, ajid might aa well be brought against one of the leading Methodists of this country a Senator of the United States who In the Senate Just the other day spoke feelingly 6f Executive lnvsalon." There might, I say, be charges brought Just as readily against Senator Teller.
