LOTS OF SMELLS


present, who behaved as badly as swelis
can behave when they are in public.
They came late, gabbled loud, slammed
their seats and acted generally in way
to convey the impression that they would
not pay double price for seats and con-
duct themselves decently. Mr. Draper,
Rabbi Hert's rival in business, came in
with lady after the curtain was up, and
while pushing her through the crowd is
alleged 10 have cOmforted her by saying:
"Never mind your clothes, dear; I'll buy
you some more tomorrow" Senator
Blaine and lady burst down the aisle
with the force of a tornado; then the SEN
ator glared at Mr.. Dana, who, in turn,
glared al Mr.. Whitelaw Reid, who sat
behind him. The Glider was there in
all masculine integrity of cheviot
sho citing coat aud vest, standing collar,
ulster and short skirts Governor Cor
nell and wife marched in like lions, but
sat down like lambs. After them fol
lowed the Cuttings, the Lorillards, the
French consul, Mr.. De Bebian, Admiral
Freycinet, and q real life count-Count
Marefoschi. Another delegation COM
prised III. X. Thurber and his charming
wife, personal friend OF Nile. Bern
hardt, Senator Conkling, Mr.. and Mrs.
John TilfOrd, Mrs. French and Mrs.
E. n Angel, looking like
AN OILED AssYRIAN BULL,
came in, accompanied by three Herbraic
danes of the most pronounced type, one
of whom gave an usher rats for pre-
Stunning te request her TO moderate her
somewhat palpable voice. Quite num-
Der of similar incidents of this kind oc-
Cured among this class of visitors. The
Einsteins, root, stem and branches, rat
tied down TO their seats with gorgeous
pomp. Then came the Kings, arrayed
like unto Solomon in all his glory, WITH
out the slightest effort to hide their
presence: The joyous Abeccasis bowed
and smiled at everybody he knew, and
compensated for his mistakes by stand
ing up at the end of each act SO as 10 in
sure recognition. The Seligmans were
out in full financial force, while Abe
Hummei looked altogether too sweet, in
the naitiest OF dress suits. Judge Dit
tenhoefer, accompanied by host of fe-
male judges-of iamonds-beamed be-
nj ~nantly on the assembled multitude
So did the Liliputian Spingarn, Julian
Nathan, rotund Louis LehmaieF, Julius
Landsberg, Alfred Lyons and other
PILLARS OF THE SYNAGOGUE,
who gave the fair ones treat in the
and seemed inexpressibly happy. The
iennesse dore were on hand, represented
by the gorgeous Perzel, the Mephis:o-
phelian Nordman, elegant Bob Crane,
studious Larry HattoD, pious Dore Lyon,
sedate Colin Anderson, amiabie Mara,
pretty Aguara, lucky Rubino, venerable
Dan Bixby, the pictorial Mora, and a
host Of press men, all of great selEim-
portance, and they dIdn't seem 70 forget
IL, either. Among the ladies of the up
pertendom were Mrs. DENIM. Mrs. Edi-
son, Miss Prescott, Miss Miller, Miss
Grihfhs, and Mrs. O'Brien, Sarony and
his pretty wife represented art on the
same slde Of the house where Surrogate
Calvin and Sheriff Bowe presented the
world Of local politics. Capt. Berghold
kept his eye on the rear OF the orches-
ira seats, while Till6tson, under q crush
hat, kept both eyes on matters in gener-
al.
The peculior features of the audience
Independently of its mixed character,
were the apparent innocence of the
French language and of the motive Of
the play. The comments freely made
also Indicated that many persons pses-
ent had left courtesy and breeding at
home. Indeed, coarse and vulgar ex-
pFessions of opinion were frequently au-
dibIe and afforded an excuse for the
rather violent remark of q gentleman in
an orchestra seat, sthat ali the
HOGS AND FIRsr-HrGHTERs
In town were assembled In mass meet !
