When "-Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch," written by Ali<(! Hegan Uice was published some 1 .'> years ago. the beauty of the story created a profound imiiresfiion. It speedily asserted its sirperiority, and is today looked upon as one of the best sell¬ ers In the litorary world. This splendid story has been picturized by Paramount as a starring vehicle for -Marguerite Clyrk. and it will b^ shown at the Y. .M. C A .\udtioriurn. ' Saturday. May 3.
i     The   book   subs«yiuontly   was   dra- 'mutizod   hy   Ann   Crawford   Flexner I the well known dramatist and novel ist, and  it  was  presented   with  gr'-.ii success at the Savoy Theatre In New York,  on  Sept.  3,   1904.     In  the pic- turizatiom,   the   beat   points     of     the novel  and  the  play have  been  incor¬ porated   with  signal  rcsultus  by   K\'- I'nsell, while the pictirre  was  direct (¦d   by  Httgh   Ford,  who  by  a  coinci¬ dence, directed the produ<tion of the j play 14 years ago.
In     "Mrs.     Wiggs of  the Cabbage Patch,"  -Miss Clark portrays the role of  Lovey  Mary,  a  monitor  in  an  or¬ phanage   in   whose   care   is   placed   •' child, of whose parents she is  ignor¬ ant, and whom she lovtis as a brof' er.     This   child   subsequently   is   the central     figure     of     un story, the development of which pro yokes many dramatic situations,  n of which Miss Clark makes the most -Miss   Clark   is   splendidly   support¬ ed  in  this picture,     Gareth     Hughes playing opprjsite her as nUly Wiggs; -Mary Carr is Mrs. Wiggs. und  Vivian Ogden  has the role of Tabitha Hazy. Little Lawrence Johnson will be seen as  Tommy.     The  cast  throughout   Is of tho highest quality.

Notwithstanding the fact that the Fr> • li government, last No¬ vember,  •xfu-essed Its willingness to accept Seiior Pani's nomination, he has been unable to presi nt los credentials to the French government throughout his long stay ¦] Paris. In view ot the above circunisti'iice-j. President Car- ranza. through this depart ment, has ordered that Seuor Panl, together with the legation corps, proceed from France to Spain, there K- await cabled instruct ion-s"
The other statement  follows:
"The confer nee now meeting at Paris has consiilered the recognition of the Monroe Doctrine. S<jme gov¬ ernments, friends of Mexico, ha- e asked Mexico for its opinion regard¬ ing the doctrine, and the Mexican de¬ partment of foreign relations has an¬ swered that the Mexican government has not re< iii^'iiized, nnd will not rec¬ ognize the Monroj Doctrine, or any other doctrine that ntti cks the sov¬ ereignty and .nilejiendence of Mexico."
Mexico's substitute f r the Monroe Doctrint- so ;ar ns Its town affairs are concerned Is the Carranza doctrine, which  wns thus summed up ;
1. No nation should intervene In any form or for any reason In the af¬ fairs   of  another.
ii. Nationals and aliens should be equal before the sovereignty of the country  In  which  t' "y  rtslde.
H. Diplomacy should not serve to prole,'t   prUiiie   interests
