The Bowery Theatre.

The management OF the Bowery Theatre took
the opportunity Of presenting to a large audience
last night two dramas OF tho emotional and
sensational school, which met on the whole,
with o somewhat Indifferent reception, but
which at particular points were greeted
with no little applause. The first OF the
two so-called emotional plays was denominated
as "Mol Pitcher, the Fortune Teller OF Linn" in
which Mrs. W. G. Jones and Mr.. M. J. Cogswel as
sumed the leading roles but In which neither
evinced much higher order Of dramatic talent
than the most Insignificant In the COMPANY which
assisted them. Even those who had come to the
BOwery willing to applaud these two leading char
acters iound but little opportunity to evince their
good intentions, for the play OF "Mo Pitcher" was
stupid and heavy throughout, and but very indi-
ferentiy put upon the stage. Mr.. Edwin Barry, as
ElIiston, made his nrst appearance, but failed, not
only to fun the possibilities but even the Ordt-
nary requirements OF his part. 1t was
only at the conclusion OF the play. and
upon the grouping OF the characters in
the nnal sensational and startling tableaux that
anything ike enthusiasm was aroused. The
play which followed was an adaptation from
WeDer's opera OF 'Der Freiscnurz,n which was
credttable enough in the incantatio scene to
evince some consideration upon the part OF the
MANAGEMENT Tor the public who frequent the
BOwery and which elected considerable applause.
There Is but little doubt tnat the majority OF the
audience which last night poured from this thea
ire were satisfied with what they saw.

The other day, on a Michigan Central
train coming East was an old lady who
had never Travelled q great deal. She
wasn't used to the ways of book agents,
the peanut boys, and the prize package
nuisances who pass through the train
every few minutes. When the peanut
boy came along and dropped q big Afri-
can peanut into her lap she sucked it,
opened her mouth and dropped the ker-
nal down, instead of regarding it with
silent contempt or pitching it out of the
window. The book agent came along
and dropped a book in her lap. She
said she was "mucll obleeged," and she
carefully locked it up in her yalise. The
prize package boy came along and drop
ped a sample, and she wandered how
the road could afford to give away 50
much. When he returned she had OPP
ened it and was wearing the breastpin
and eating the gum drops. The book
agent came back aud wanted his book,
and before she woul. give, 10 up she
called the conductor to see if it was
right. The card boy wanted his pay,
and she appealed to the passengers.

The Duty of a Woman to be a
t5 Lady F@@g glicf q

Wildness is thing which girls can
not afford. Delicacy is a thing which
can not be lost and found. No art can
restore to the grape its bloom. Famil-
iarity without love, without confidence,
without regard, is destructive to all
that makes woman exalting and lenno-
bling. ys aa - ,-s-t 81, f.9
The world is wide, these things are small;
They may be nothing, but they are all. 4
Nothing 1t is the first duty Of a wo-,
man to be lady. Good breeding is
good sense. Bad manners in woman1s
immortality. Awkwardness may be in
eradicable. Bashfulness is constitu-
tional. Ignorance of etiquette is the re-
suit of circumstances. AL can be con-
doned, and do not Danish man or wo-
man from the amenities of their kind.
But self-possessed, unshrinking, and
aggressive coarseness Of demeanor may
be reckoned as a State Prison offsnse,
and certainly merits the mild term of
restraint called imprisonment for life.
1t is shame for women to be lectured
on their manners. 1t is bitter shame
that they need it. Women are the UNI.
pires of society. 1t is they to whom all
mooted points should be referred. To
be lady is more than to be a prince.
A lady is always in her right inaliena-
bly, worthy ofrespect. To lady, prince
and peasant alike bow. Do not be re-
strained. DO not have impulses that
need restraint. Do not wish to dance
with the prince unsought; feel differ
emily. Re such that you confer honor.
Carry yourself 50 loftily that men shall
look up to you for reward, not at yeu
in rebuke. The natural sentiment OF
man toward woman Is reverence. He
loses large means of grace, when he
is obliged to account her being to be
trained into propriety. A mans ideal
is not wounded when woman fails in
wardly wisdom; but if in grace, i'm
tact, in sentiment, in delicacy, in kind
ness, she should be found wanting, he
receives an inward hurt. r 5i
