sued by tho Bulgarians climbs a waterspout and breaks into her room as she isretiring for the night Is highly entertain-ing This is the beginning of the ro-mance which culminates at the end ofthe third act after some very interestingcomplications Raina is a highly roman-tic girl and the unexpected advent of theofficer undor such conditions leads hor tohide him from his pursuers The nextday he departs In disguise and sixjnonthslater returns to claim for his wife thegirl who had saved him

THE CLOSING OF CHASES
The Pro i cc H for the Future ofVaudeville Here
brought Us tenth season ofvaudeville to a close last night and
been one of the most successful InHistory Next season the theater will
throw open Its doors on August 31
and the management forecasts a sea-son of forty weeks or more filled with asteady succession of European apd Amencan novelty creations
In tho meantime passes tomorrow into the renovatorsdecorators and artists emerging In timefor the fall opening with added beautiescomforts and conveniences sustainingIts wlfle reputation of being tho handsomost best conducted and most pope

Neither Chases nor its management Isafflicted with somnolency in this or anyother regard concerning its very lispertant local and theatrical Interests but themanagement states hi order to removeany misapprehension in this respect fromthe minds of any unaware or misinformed-as to the actual that Chases isprepared to perpetuityor In other words Chases will be herela Washington long after the readers ofthis article are gathered to their fathers
Since Congress began to discuss activelythe question of purchasing alt the landon the south side of the Avenue themanagement has been fairly besieged byproperty owners and capitalists In thelast few weeks a score of sites and asmany fortunes have been placed at thedisposal of the management thenewspapers have given
reports To none of these has Chasesgiven more than courteous heed for thesimple reason that Chases long ago madeup Its as to when its permanent
be erected and it shouldbe added out not with unkindly intentthat the site is not one of the many oftendebated although a person standing atthe southeast corner of Fifteenth streetand Pennsylvania avenue can see now thespot upon which Chases will itssolid and successful theyears to come In curi-osity will be gratified and long before Itwilt become necessary to tenant the structune the new Chases will be in readinesaIt will be owned land and edifice by PB Chase and the saint Chases Wiltblaze its permanent assurance of politevaudeville over its doors it being MrChases intention to make the new Chasescomparable in beauty to the stately na-tional buildings here and to have it standas a memorial to vaudeville
Today the polite interests inthe theatrical world are compactly andpermanently affiliated the in
B F Keith F FWilliams Oscar Hararoersteln P BChase and other foremost magnates inthis held and this combination Insuresnot only prevention from infringementamong themselves but It also providesprotection against extraneous encroach-ment and guarantees an extent andity of attractions which no
could hope to obtain The posany opposition to Chases fromany of the affiliated is therefore remote
and the probability of any opposition ofany character whatsoever being able toline of attractions that would dithe popularity of Chases is equal
ly as if not more condi-tions are not thely considerations but while they are in
they are subordinated to eonlegal inviolability and busi-
ness sanctity for their binding effectChases success has not been accidental
grown out of an unselfish wish togive Washington the cleanest entertain-ment in the handsomest environmentand at the lowest price possible On sucha foundation as this Chases has built ittreputation and reared its standard andthe future holds no hazard affecting either the continuity of the performance orthe popularity of the theater The priceat the dally matinees next season will be26 for oven seat In all parts of thotheater

Operas by Poimlnr VoteTomorrow night at tho Now National
Theater a unique voting contest will beinaugurated It will differ from the contest hold last at this same the-ater in that the operas from which tochoose a repertoire will not be namedthe Aborns laying themselves liable toproduction of whatever operas may be se-lected or rather the ones that securetho highest vote
All of the programmes of the theaterwill contain printed slips from now untilJuno 27 on which will appear the votingInstructions The idea will be to deter-mine In this way just what opera aremost desired by patrons for production j
during the month of July The only re-striction connected with the contest isthat none of the operas thus far pre-sented will be repeated All votes mustbe for works that have not produced
last summer or thisorder of preference the operas
will be given during July the first to befor the week beginning July 6 when theopera receiving the most votes will bogiven with a complete cast and elaboratescenic investiture

P m the Otfcaen TrtsoofIf you are a fullblooded American
worker in Chicago the chances are threeout of five that you pay rent to a land-lord who is foreign born The averagenative American in Chicago cant getahead on a salary of X a week Theaverage foreignborn resident savesmoney and becomes a landlord on an income much smaller
At the present rate at which theer renting properties are beingby foreign blood it will not be manydecades before most of the rent receiptswill be signed by LandlordsSmisnlewicz Zettlach or Rubertski
This tendency te one that ought to in-

ture of things grow into modest com-petence but which on the contrary isdrifting Into a dependence that must lookto blood dictatorship

WhyGo through a score of the front vesti-
bules on your street and read the nameson the malt boxes In almost every buildIng you will find one American familyand one foreign family It is a safe betthat the foreigner is the landlord Youwill not ibid the reverse true once intwenty times
This is not an overdrawn picture ofmany extensive sections of Chicago Theassessment rolls show whole blocks ofrenting properties without a singleAmerican owner so far as may be judged by the names
The cause to answer the question superftcially Ites in habit Foreign resi-dents of Chicago have the saving habitThey have the property craze Nativeshave the spending habit Ask th aver-age American Vorker in Chicago why hedoesnt own a home or small rentingproperty and he will reply-

tied in life before he begins to save Andhe never finds himself settled until hewakes up to the fact that hes gettingold Then hos settled beyond redemp-tion
The foreigner begins to save at thestart He puts a mortgage on the futureand pays it oft so that by the time he Isforty or fifty he Is practically
collecting rents from Jones andSmith who didnt want to be tied downAs landlord he has carved a little nichefor himself in the city where he defieseviction and loan sharks Jones andSmith are doing tho hustling to supporthimAfter all It takes comparatively littleto support a family In comfort Mr
zf rsvflki with his 10000 is content Heearns a little additional perhaps buthe snaps his fingers at the world
You the American worker ought tolearn a valuable lesson from your foreignlandlord
