Which the same I would rise to explain. Ah Bin waa his name And I shall not deny. In regard to the same, What that name might Imrly: But his smile It was pensive and childlike. As I frequently remarked to Dili Is ye. It was Aujrust the third, And Quite soft was the ekles: Which It might be Inferred That Ah Bin was likewise; Yet he played It that day upon Wil liam And me In a way I despise.

Which we had a small game, And Ah Bin took a hand It was euchr. The same He did not understand: But he smiled as he sat by the table, 1th the smile that was childlike and bland. Yet the cards they were stocked In a way that I grieve. And my feelings were shocked At the state of Nye's sleeve, wnioh was stuffed full of aces and Dowers. And the same with Intent to deceive.

But the hands that were played By that heathen Chinee And the points that ha made Were quite frightful to see Till at last he put down a right bower WhlHh the same Nye had dealt unto me. Then I looked up at Nye, And he gazed upon me; And he rose with a sigh. And said, "Can this be? We are ruined, by Chinese cheap labor" And he went for that heathen Chinee. In the scene that ensued I did not take a hand; But the floor it was strewed Like the leaves on the strunrt With the cards that Ah Sin had been hiding, In the game "he did not understand." In his Bloeves, which wpre long. He hud twenty-four packs W'hlrh was coming It strong1, Yet I state the And we fonud on his nails, which were taper, What is frequent in tapers that's wax.

Which is why 1 remark, And my Innguago is plain, That for ways that are dnr.k And for tricks that arc vain The heathen Chinee Is peculiar, Which the same I am free to maintain. Hret Harte.

Music and Drama This morning the eat sale opened for John Mason's engagement In "I Uu Witching Hour at the Winnipeg thea tre this Thursday, I riiinj and naturaay evenings, also Saturday afternoon. Mr. is Americas representative actor In his own Urn' and is supported by an all-round excellent company of pluy-ers. Augustus Thomas' play is said to he the best he has yet written and tills Is saying much when one recalls how many great plays be tins given to the public.

Including which was so much enjoy -il by local playgoers last week. "The Witching Hour" is entirely new In theme and Is very exulting. Harry Mayo, who firBt visited Win nipeg as a member of a famous sing ing organization, i ne r.mpire iuy Quartette, Is cementing the good opin ion he nrst created In his appearances alone nt the Walker this week. Mayo is one of the best basBO singers in audeville, und his selections are chosen with a care that reflects Itself In their popular appeal. Mayos turn is the artistic hit of a sensational bill at the Wulker this week.

There may be farces and farces, but It will be a long time before anybody comes ulong. witn anyining mat is lultu as gay. light nnd attractive as 'The Blue Mouse," which is drawing capacity houses at the Dominion this week. The Dominion players are giv ing the comedy a very complete pro duction. There will be matinee per formances at the IJumlnlon tomorrow and Saturday.

Tho final performance of "Tho Awa kening of Helena Richie" will be given this evening at-the Winnipeg theatre by Margaret Anglln and her excellent company. Miss Anglln's engagement has been a veritable triumph for her here artistically and financially. Anyone wishing to see the perfection of emotional acting should not fall to witness Miss Anglln's of Helena, ns It is Indeed a work of art. The play Is very interesting, and It la splendidly presented by tho mem bers of Miss Anglln's company as well as by the star herself. A play to mako people think is the Khubert production of "The Witching Hour, Augustus Thomas' masterpiece, which will be presented at the Winnipeg theatre tomorrow evening.

and for the remainder of the week, Including Saturday mntlnee. In this remarkable piece Mr. Thomas iota provided exciting episodes and situations, much genuinely stirring drnma of the higher sort, many unique and curious little surprises of plot dealing with mystic phenomena, weird Inheritances of ancestry and startling Influences of personality upon personality down through three generations and from the gambler's fashionable card room to the very shadow of the supreme court and the Jurv room of a great murder trial. The skill with which he has woven so many human interests together with all the new Ideas that are afloat in the air concerning telepathy, Christian science, spiritualism, hypnotism, mesmerism nnd all that concerns those unknown mysteries is enough to stnmp this as an even greater achievement of its author than was even his "Alabama" or his "In Mlz-zotira or his "Arizona," capital plays ns they all are. The playgoer who Is wise enough to see "The Witching Hour" will carry home with him from this play a multitude of new sensations, feelings and thoughts and will find fresh Interest In the curlouB co-Incidences and strange Impressions of every ilny life.

Its striking success in Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia and other cities, as well as Its run of over a 5ar Bt the liaekelt theatre, New-York, has been umple confirmation of his own faith and Is a credit to the brains and hearts of the pluygocra of the day, who are ao often made unjustly to take the blame for slipshod und worthless dramatic offerings. John Hlglus, the champion Juniper of the world, Is doing some lino work this week at the HIJ011. Ills leap over the seven foot, five laired gate Is a particularly fine Jump and Is not without its quota of danger as was seen clearly In the week when he fell whllo attempting the Jump and sustained a nasty shaking up.
