Oct. 14.—The Japanese government has issued a denial of the alarmist rejicrts of the immnience of war with Russia, in a dispatch from Tokio, dated yesterday, and sent to the Japanese minister* abroad. It says: , "The negotiations concerning Man- ohurian and Corean questions are fol lowing their normal course, and there Is no reason to anticipate a rupture between Japan and Russia.

Miss Eva Mountford’s presentation of “When Her Soul Speaks’’ at the Star Theatre last Monday evening was a most pronounced success from an artistic standpoint. The play is not one that appeals to the frivolous, and it can hardly be said that there was a comedy vein in it. But the acting was good, in fact splendid. At times the leading lady, Miss Mount- ford, would rise to heights of elo quence and display undoubted dram atic ability, The entire company was good, Mr. Elmer Grandin being especially strong as “David Danger- field,” the minister. In ail the long years that Richards k Pringle’s Famous Georgia Minstrels have been before the public, they have never offered such a strong array of talent as the one that makes up this season’s organization. They bring many new people, acts and novelties this year, only retain ing from last season those that ‘‘made good” with the public and press. The scenery used in the opening or “First Part,” as it is commonly called, is very beautiful and appro priate, representing as it does the veranda of the Royal Ponciauna Hotel, Palm Beach, Fla.; the waiters in this, the largest hotel in the world, are giving an entertainment to the 3,000 guests. This is the greatest minstrel opening ever seen with this company. The features introduced this season are novel, numerous and startling, and include many innovations on the field of minstrelsy. The singing por tion of the show is the strongest put together—Carlyle Williams, Wra. Garland, Wm. Goode, Sidney Kirk, Napoleon Johnson and T. P. Jones the six highest salaried colored sing ers in the world. In comedy the company is espec ially strong and numbers everybody’s favorites—S H. Dudley, Clarence Powell, Emmet Davis, Bunk Camp bell and Charles Scott. The olio is made up of J. W. Cooper and his talking figures; Simpson k Pittman, musical artists; Campbell Bros., coon comedy exponents ; Kraton, the marvelous Hoop Controller; Dudley & Kelley, comedy boomers; “Boom- sky,” In illusions; The No. 3 Toneys, acrobats; Clarence Powell, in a new budget of funny sayings, and Dud ley in bis latest creation, “Jim Jack- son, at the Policy Shop.” The big parade takes place about dood, In which two big bands will furnish the music. The gallery will be reserved for the colored people exclusively. Seats on •ale at Cherokee Drug Co., today. Only three plays produced in tbe last half dozen years have been, strictly speaking literary productions. These have been “Tbe Favor of the Queen” Introducing William Shake speare as a character, which is to be at tbe Star Theatre on October 80th with Miss Percy Haswell as tbe star, supported by the George Fewoett Company. “Cyrano de Bergerac” and “Ulyeeee” now running In New York. Of tbeee “The Favor of the Queen” wae so striking In theme and In literary as well as playable qualities It wae immediately decided to give It a big New York production. This prodnotlon to be seen here Is tbe same company, scenery and cos tuming that will be seen when Miss Haswell goes into New York city fora run there. The following criticism of “Romeo & Juliet” which will,be at tbe Star Theatre later in tbe season, will be found timely, and is from the Sher brooke, Quebec, Canada, Record: ‘ ‘Shakespeare’s great love tragedy, ‘Romeo & Juliet’, was produced at the Clement theatre last evening by the Simvelle company. A large au dience saw the production and the (•Hpibie impersonation of the immor tal hero and heroine was accorded liberal applause. The play has the advantage over most of the works of the great bard in that it is easily understood and followed by all. It was evident that from the orchestra to the 'goiR’ all felt well repaid for their attendance laat evening. Shake sperian plays are in a class entirely by themselves. There is nothing in modern or ancient production that reaches their level and the theatrical management which is able to present several of these productions during the season deserves the highest com mendation for its act, and besides, that will do much to destroy the im pressions left by some of the inferior companies which are constantly forcing their impositions upon the public.” LIVER TROUBLES “I find Thrtford'* Bl»ok-Dnmrht a Rood merticino for livar diaoMe.

'Port Arthur, Tuesday, Oct. 13.— The review of the viceroy, Admiral Al-exleff, on Sunday of 76,000 soldiers participating in the maneuvers, was the final act of last week’s war game. This force was massed on the field fust outside the city. They includ ed infantry, cavalry and artillery. The InJa/ntry regiment is partly mounted. In accordance with the recent regula tions. Foreigners were given every opportunity to witness the display, and the statement of officers regarding the total force were verified by the count of the visiting experts. It Jwas also officially announced that the en tire force within easy operating dis tance of Port Arthur numbers 100 000 men. Two months ago It was 10,000 men. Sunday’s spectacle dem onstrated that the reports regarding reinforcements arriving in Manchuria h*a underestimated the real increase. Th® army assembled Sunday was great er than the Pekin diplomats believed Ruasla'e entire force In Manchuria to be. Officials here are taking pains to advertise Russia’s strength and proclaim that the maneuvers are in tended as an object lesson. Admiral Alexieff, speaking to an American, of ficial. said; “War would be a great calamity. Here we believe that the best way to prevent It would be to strengthen ourselves, as much as possible. There fore we here left no steps untaken for that purpose.” The details of the maneuvers were kept secret, but the correspondent of The Associated Press learns that the landing of forces at Talien Wan bay were repulsed. It is reported that the attacking army broke through Port Arthur’s defenses at the three points. Two battleships and two cruisers are on their vay here from Russia. When they arrive Russia’s naval force on this station will be stronger than Japan’s, according to the views of the Rus sian officer*. Anticipation of war is at a feverish heat in the army and navy, but this Is based entirely on the activity of the preparations visible everywhere. The higher officials believe that Japan has been over-awed by the demonstration of Russia’s power. No step* towards the evacuation of Manchuria have been taken. The of ficial journal, the editor of which is a colonel In the viceroy’s staff, says none will be taken. The governors of East Siberia an here consulting with the viceroy for the purpose of arranging a new divi sion of territory, beyond the Amur in to three provinces. The reports that a Chinese army had assembled in the rear of Mukden are not confirmed. M lV P Bank .1 T Coyle .1 A MeKown J B Pettet B G Clary Carroll.
