MRS. LANGTRY,s DEBUT.
fHeE Wonderful Beauty taae Probable
Causc or Fourteen Encores-
Critics Pleased

New YORK, Nov. 6.-An audience rep
resenting all that,is noted il New York
society greeted Mrs. Langtry this evening
and called her before the footlights IA
times with, perhaps, the desire to get a
closer look at her. The general verdict of
critics and the audience was that, beauty
Or no beauty, Mrs. Langtry is the most
charming vision that has appeared on our
stage for these many years. As Hester
Gracebrook in Gan Unequal Match she
first appeared as rustic beauty, then as a
neglected wife, then as a butterfly Of
fashion. In all these she was simply
charming. Some people find her features
heavy, and SO they are while in repose,
but when she speaks the expression is so
full.of delightful vivacity and grace that
the heaviness is forgotten and the secret Of
her fame becomes apparent. AS an actress
Mrs. Langtry is no more than acceptable,
but no one went to see an actress. The
world went to see a beauty and was not
disappointed.

A Temperance 0Eovesaase ut.

Washington sneei4l: 1'he temperance
people OF the District Of Columbia are
about to undertake the task Of securing
ractical prohibition IF the liquor traffic
within the limits of Washington and
Georgetown. There are about 800 saloons
within the city limits, and altogether
about 700 III places where liquors are said
to be drank is a beverage. The liquor
dealers have an organized association for
the protection Of its members. Under
such circumstances tile undertaking of the
temperance people is thought Jo be diff
cult one. Nevertheless, they have gone
to work resoluteiY with the fixed purpose
OF cleaning Washington Of drinking sa-
looms. Al a meeting Of the grand divis-
ion Of the Sons of Temperance for the
District of Columbia the preliminary steps
were taken. The plan is TO ask Congress
would enable the people of the district, IT,
respective OF sex, to vote on the question
OF local option," and for that purpose to
divide the city into elections districts. Re-
specting the latter proposition the tenn
perance people will volunteer plan by
which the city viii be So divided that.every
district shall include territory enough to
carry the question. A large majority of
the Washington people Gnc!uGing Wonenj
favor prohibition uut! lne temperance peo-
pie calculate that nv an Ingenious appor
ito nment Of The city no district will fail to
be carried for prohibition under the local
option law. 'Ehe iel>t expected is that
the area luI the safe Of liquor will be
greatly narrowed down, and that ulti-
mately it Will be possible to obtain such
action from congress as VIII prohibit the
or sale Of al! intoxicating
drinks within the District of Columbia. Il
is understood that The various temperance
OF the district will co-Ope-
rate in this movement against the liquor
traffic and that Influential aid will be
from the Yarious orgAniza
ions Of the various states.

a London medical journal says: S'The
custom now i among ladies Of ton to
wear tea gown, which, it may be explain
ed for the uniCiated, is nothing more than
an elegant form Of dressing gown, the
whole afternoon, aud even when en famille,
to dine in it. As its use usually enables
the wearer to dispense with the corset,
the hygienic value Of tie tea gown is ar-
wear corsets even beneath the tea gown,
but they are III q small minority. If the
tea gown be the 9ioaeer Of other garments
which may ex5 5ut4t eorsets from the list
OF ladies' clothing, il should indeed be
welcomed"

shAl Brown at Caldwell last summer, died
yesterday from the wounds received in his

skull. Though this shot entered his brain
and others went through his body, he lived
for 80 days and talked Of recovery up to |

he became unconscious. He mad been

Hints to Young Lady Riders.

If q young lady be possessed OF good
nerve, teach her to ride, by all means,
but not otherwise, as it is t1yln% in the
face ofProvidence; but do not allow her
for moment to imagine that III the
curb bit, the pommel and the stirrups
there is safety.
1. Let her learn 10 sit square upon
the saddle, with ~ light hand upon the
rein-the lighter her hand the less ssher
horse will pull, and vice versa, rs u.s.
ing force against force she has no
chance; and let one of her first lessons
be to ride without stirrup, so that ut
any time she may be independent OF it,
and never so ride upon it hat her foot,
driven home, cannot be extricated in q
moment.
The habit should not be so long as to
impede her movements just long
enough to cover her foot. Then, in case
of fall she may escape unhurt.
1t may safely be conceded that AZ
least one-hah of the accidents OF ia'iies
occur in consequence Of cowardice OF
nervousness, or whatever it may be
called, which simply amounts to q want
of nerve to act with determination o.
the sudden appearance of IN unlocked
for danger.
A scream, and the reins are gone
the horse catches the contagion OF fear
and a fatal casualty, which might hav'
been averted by one atom OF eontidenc'
on the part of the victim, is the conse
ouence. BY careful training this dan
GER may be obviated completely

stnssmsnt Of Mr. Washington Monroe, Of catsln,

"For many years had suffered from a
complaint which the physicians called
gravel. | had employed some of the
most noted doctors without obtaining
any permanent relief, and for a long
time my case was regarded as hopeless.
All who knew the circumstances said
must die. Finally my wife induced me
to try bottle of DIR. Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy which she had somewhere heard
of or seen advertised. Without the
slightest faith in it but solely to crafty
her, bought a bottle of a druggist in
our village. l used that and two oI
three bottles more, and-tomake long
story short-I am now as healthy man
as there is in the country.
Since then have recommended 'Fa-
vorite remedy to others whom l knew to
have suffered from kidney and livei
complaints; and I assure the public that
the 'Favorite Remedy has done its work
with a similar completeness in every

Tx question Of holding but one
session OF the Legislature is being Ag-
irated among -the members Of the
present Legislature, and it Is said
with much favor. The Constitution
contemplates but one session during
the two years, and the first LegislatuFe
elected after its adoption held bob Sne.
The next Legislature, ho~sgsE IN or
der to circumvent this Constitutional
provision, held an adjourned session,
and each succeeding Legislature has
followed this precedent, which virtu.
ally amounts 10 two sessions during
the term. It Is objected to the single
session that the large appropriations
necessary for two years are liable to
extravaganza. We do not think the
point is well taken. With a single
session the cost of an adjourned one may
be appropriated for the bene fit Of some
of the State institutions, the demands
upon which are increasing yearly. We
think the present is a good time to
plumb the Constitution, and at least
try the experiment of a single session.
