AT THE OPERA HOUSE. Alvin Joslin' Played to a Good House ''Held by the Enemy'' Next,

Without Charles L. Davis fine orchestra his performance at the opera house last night would not have been half what it was. "Alvin Joslin'' does not hold a candle to such pieces as ''Edgwood Folks and "Joshua Whitcomb," but it draws fully as we'll, as was evidenced by last nights audience, and seems to please the people.
 William Gillette's "Held by the Enemy will return to this city and give one per- formance at the opera house next Wednes- day evening. There will be an improvement in the scenic effects over the last perform ance here. Much of the scenery was then in New York being repainted. It has now been returned to the company and will be used at the performance next Wednesday evening.

DEFEATED AT NEW HAVEN. The Waterburys Outplayed at Every
 Point Last Night.

The New Ravens whitewashed the Brass city polo team in the presence of a crowd ed rink last night. New Haven played the best game ever played in the rink. with possibly one exception-the Boston game. Every man played almost to perfection and the spectators left the rink finding consol- ation in the thought that the champion ship is yet within reach.
 New Haven played a fine passing game, like a machine Churchill was the lion of the night and his play at center was ap- plauded again and again.
 Newcombe started the game by taking the rush aad caging the ball in 1:4s. The third goal he made by rushing the ball from the center, carrying it down the rink alone and poking it in, surrounded by Waterbury players, in eight seconds amid deafening applause.

Should Be Bread Winners.

Every one, women as well as men, should be bread winners, in a broad sense, at least; and it should be taught early that natural capacity is to decide the line in which the in- dividual is to be educated. If girl shows a natural aptitude for teaching, let her be educated to be teacher; but do not send every girl through the Normal college be- cause a halo rests over a teachers chair. When every vacancy in school or office calls forth thirty or forty anxious applicants, why do not women turn their attention to some thing besides teaching, type writing, and similar employments? Let them take up the neglected needle and the despised scissors, and putting the same energy into mastering these humble instruments that is wasted on didactics, let them aim to do we'll the work that is crying to be done-Harriet Cushman in Demorest's Monthly.

Save Your Strength.

7 Young mothers, be as chary of your strength as miser is of his money You will have abundant use for all at your com. mand, in the rearing of your children. All used unnecessarily is wasted, squandered You have a certain life supply, and when this is exhausted, you must fail, though that exhaustion may occur at forty years of age Like the moments, never returning, the vital supply, that was intended for the whole life, cannot return when once wasted. Let little feet run up and down stairs, to do little errands; it will do the the children no harm to do that part, and will favor you very much. Do not lift a whole tub or even a pail of water, if it in any way overexerts yourself A little planning, little time taken for hard effort, little rest, taken when you are weary, will prove economy. Overwork is as disastrousa S the payment of exorbitant interest.-Dr. Hanaford.

She Was 8 Woman.

Mrs Belva A. Lockwood relates, at con. siderable length, in Lippincott's, the difficult ties she had to surmount before being per mitted to plead as lawyer. At first she was admitted to the district bar, but when she sought to gain access to the bar of the court of claims her greatest sorrows were to come. She thus relates this circumstance: "At precisely 12 o'clock the five justices of that dignified court marched in, made their sol emn bows and sat down. Without ceremony, after the formal opening of the court by the clerk and the reading of the minutes of the last session, my gracious attorney moved my admission. There was painful pause. Every eye in the court room was fixed first upon me, and then upon the court, when Justice Drake, in measured words, announced, Mis- tress Lockwood, you are a woman.' For the first time in my life began to realize that it was a crime to be woman" It is not reces- sary to state that Mistress Lockwood suc- ceeded at last, and made her presence felt at the bar.-The Epoch.

How to Wash the Face.


 Tell the girl whose nose is red the first thing she has to do is to give up tight lacing. Nine times out of ten that's the cause of the glowing effect. She can put a little camphor on every night and this may do it some good. The chances are she doesn't know how to wash her face, a something that the average woman is very ignorant of She may know how to scrub it until she takes all the bloom off it, or she may know how to dab it, giving what the darkies call Ia lick and promise :" Now, here's the way one should wash ones face: Have big bowl full of hot water when say hot mean hot I don't mean tepid put in both hands and lave the face thor oughly with this hot water until it is as red as the proverbial lobster. The hands are the proper things to wash the face with, because they are cloths with intelligence added to them. Do not dry the face, but just as quickly as possible give it another laying with very cold water. The warm water cleanses the skin, the cold water gives vigor to it, makes the flesh firm and prevents one from catching cold.-"Bob" ill New York Star.

interested in the report brought here
to-. day to the effect that a herd Of
fifty buffalos were seen sixty miles
north of here last week, on the bank
of the Missouri river. John White
sides, hunter who arrived here to.
day, says that he saw the herd and
killed one of the animals, while the
animals were stampeding to the river
for water. Whiteside narrowly .es-
capped being caught in a. narrow ra.
vine and trampled upon by the thirsty
beasts. The bufaloes swan the ri.
yer and started in northwesterly
direction from the western bank. This
is the first herd seen in Dakota for
over five years, and it is supposed that
they have been driven from the North
west Territory by hunters. A large
number of settlers have started in pur.
suit in hopes of capturing the big
game.

to Butte City, Mont, learnd other bad
luck recently, and on the very day she
ended her life he repented ofhis deser-
ton and telegraphed her money to
buy railroad ticket and pay her ex-
penses to..return to him. The messen-
ger boy arrived with the message only
a few hours after the unfortunate wo.
man had breathed her last. The
weeping mother had new cause of
grief when she learned how her daugh-
ter's life might have been saved had
the message come few hours sooner.
