Rose Eytings employed fashionable San
Francisco mOdtsie to create her costumes in the
character of Cleopatra which she is now per-
sOnating with great success. The Frisco
artistic in modern woncns wear was quite al
loss 10 know how this ancient dame was
dressed, and so she called at the picture gallery
to inspect PicOu's celebrated painting,
hoping that 1t might afford sugges-
tions. The costume of Cleopatra in that
picture, you remember, consists chiefly of neck
lace, earrings, armlets, and anklets, rather
more expensive, but not less primitive than
the draperies of Eve after the apple scene in
garden. The dressmaker was heard to remark.
as she hurried from the place, that the matter
might more properly be referred to a jeweler.
However, other models were aftcrward chosen,
and the costumes prepared from them are ssid
to be marvols Of magnifcence and effective
ness.
Although Rose Eytinge is favorite here,
and will play in neighbOring cities, she will
not come to Washington this season.
