John Il. Strickler whose portrait of Colonel
Robert e.. Ingersoll Is still we'll remembered rs
one of the best of its kind, has returned again,
and threatens to do some hard and conscien-

There are few Young artists in Now York
who more really deserve success than Miss

The cast Of "Ermin!e" has been changed
IN some respects since the opera was
last presented here and it cannot be
said that the change is for the bet
ter. We prefer the polished pomposity OF
Plunkett as the Cheralier to the garrulous gro
tesqueness of Freeman, who has succeeded
him In that role. Daboll is unapproachable as
RdrenRes, though Plunkett as Rdrry won uni
versnl praise from those who saw the opera fol
the first time. Pauline Hall, Marie Jansen and
Francis Wilson, who appeared in their accus'
TONED parts were given an ovation that mus

They visit the Clubs with the Boys and
sInye a Gno1 Time

Have Good Time.
A Philadelphia dispatch says. The
New Year dawned bright and cheerful,
more cheerful than some Of the fantastic
paraders looked who were dragging
their weary footsteps along in the wake
of band of music Mt the hour when the
beautiful dawn occurred. The custom
of New York parading has grown TO be
a very popular one among social clubs,
and as year succeeds year the elaborate
character of the turnouts surpasses all
the preceding ones. While many Of the
paradiug club had masquoradcrs in fem
mine attire, there was one organization,
the Magnolia Club, that furnished the
single exception in having in il real fem
mime characters. The club turned ont
in couples, male and female. The fact
that these masqueraders in skirts were
the genuine article was easily detected
by the long flowing hair down their
backs and general aspect of dolicacy
beside their stronger companions The
girls all wore masks 1t is said they
started out last evening, and had been
parading, with the exception Of intervals
during their visits to other clubs, con
tinuously up TO ! o'clock, when they
marched up Chestnut street behind a
band of music looking dreadfully tired.
