WOMAN'S PAINTED FACE.

1t Was Seen In Nineveh, and 1t Costs .
Pile In America To-day.
The art OF beautifying the complexion
by artificial means is very old. The
women Of gray antiquity knew how to
give their cheeks the rosy hue which
nature had denied them. In Nineveh
the practice Of enameling was quito
common. The skin was made smooth
and clean with pumice stone and then
covered with layer Of white chemical
preparations. A toilet case found in the
ruins Of Thebes contained whole ar
senal Of little bottles full Of perfumeries
and complexion medicines. The women
Of Athens painted themselves with
white lead and vermilion. The poet Of
Ovid described various paints which
were used by the Roman mstrons, and
complained that the women tried to
initiate with cosmetics the rosy COM
plexion which health alone could
give. He also spoke Of the de-
ceitful pallor lent to their checks
by white lead, and Of curious
methods they had Of beautifying their
eyes. Again he mentions that pals
face was a necessity for every woman
who aspired to be good form" P1iny
speaks of concoction of -four Of peas
and barley, eggs, hartshorn, ETC., which
fashionable women in Rome wore ON
their faces all night and part Of the day
for the purpose of clearing their slkins-
The custom Of painting the face was
brought to Gaul and Germany by the,
Romans. A few centuries later one,
hundred different salves for the COM
plexion was sold in the German market.
In modern times France has been tho,
great manufacturer and consumer o&
cosmetics. In England, too, the use %
them has been general. In ITO tho Ea1
glish Parliament found it expedient ri
consider bill to the effect that "al1
women, without distinction as to age hr
rank, maidens as we'll as widows, whS|
should deceive the male subjects OF hts|
Majesty and mislead them into mari
riage by means Of paint, salve, beauty
water, false teeth, false hair, Spanish,
wool, corsets or padded hips, should heI
punished under the provisions Of thA|
law against sorcery, and the marriaS4
should be declared null" 4

estimates that the money which Ames
can women pay for cosmetics would psni
for the painting Of $1,000 houses at d

that are in tho world keep us from

Ruskin's Frisndship for Millais.

"The painter Millais," said London
friend to Eugene Field, sis a prince.
BY that mean that he is enormously
rich, has superb home in the suburbs
of London, and lives and entertains in
the most lavish manner. OF course, he
is great artist, but it is pretty gener-
ally understood that his advancement to
fame and prosperity would not have
been 80 rapid but for tho friendly offices
OF John Ruskin. For years Ruskin
spent most of his time and devoted most
of his talents in advertising Millais. In
return for this priceless service Millsis
married Ruskin's divorced WIFE"

SPORT At THE TRAPS.
SECOND DAY OF THE STATE SHOOTING
TOURNAMENT.
Some Good Scores at Live Birds and
Inanimate Targets-Important
Events for To-day.

Visiting sportsmen in attendance on the
annual shooting tournament under the
auspices of the State Sportsmen's Associa-
ton were much better pleased with the
weather yesterday than on the previous
day, when the north wind made it so dis
agreeable. There was a good attendance
at the shooting grounds, several gentlemen
having arrived who could not be present
on the first day-notably Henry Bassford
and Mr.. Donaldson, of Vacaville; W.
Golcher and Secretary Briggs, of San Fran
cisco, and others.
Word was received yesterday that sew
eral of the crack shots Of San Francisco,
including John K Orr, Crittenden Robin
son, Ed. Fay and Frank Mackey would
probably be on hand to-day, when several
important matches will be shot at live
birds.
Yesterdays shooting was mostly at"blue
rocks" or clay discs, thrown from spring
traps. Their fight very closely resembles
quails rising from the ground, and-while
the sport is not so exciting as live-bird
shooting-it is very excellent substitute.
and much less expensive to the partici
pants.
H. Fl. Briggs, Secretary of the Associa-
ton, oficiated SIS referee during the day,
and when be wasn't quite satisfied with his
own decisions he appealed to the shooters
and spectators, and occasionally reversed
himself-or, rather his decisions. The best
of feeling prevailed, and everything passed
off pleasantly.
The first match was at six single live
birds, entrance S., divided into five moneys.
The scores were aa follnWs.

.AMUsEMENTs.

At TIE Metropolitan Theater on Monday
and Tuesday evenings next the comedian
and character artist, Henry E. Dixey, one
of the best known men on the stage, will
appear, presenting his two principal pieces,
"Adonis" and his Interpretation in charac-
ter acts of Sbakespeare's mastery summing
up of the chief stages in life, in the famous
lines from "As You Like 1t" and known
as THE Seven Ages of Man."
The same company which Dixey brought
to the coast and that supported him on his
recent long engagement at the Baldwin
Theater, San Francisco, will appear with
him here-ffty-five persons in all. The
troupe carries also all the scenery used in
the two plays.
In "Adonis," Dixey's first great success,
he is so widely known that it is scarcely
necessary now to more than refer to his
fine limitations, his graceful posing, his
his graceful dancing. ''Adonis' has been
a source of great profit to him, and critics
still contend among themselves whether he
is better in that or in 1.-The Seven Ages"
Probably ia the latter bis abilities have
broader field, since it involves more in
tellectual work and much greater variety
of character assumption of sharply con-
trasted characters. 1t is said that his
audience is never agreed upon which of the
parts he assumes in The Seven Ages is
the cleverest portrayal. The most difficult
without doubt is that of the grandfather,
but it is quite question if Joe Jefferson
himself could sink his identity more abSo-
luiely than Dixey does in this instance.
The two pieces Mr.. Diyey will present
here are both snowy, rich in fine costumery
and each peoples the stsge with graceful
men and women moving to the lime of
taking music There are delightful tab.
leaux, witching dances passages of fine wi.
and rich humor and scenes both grotesque
and spectscularly beautiful. The Portland
Oregonian says of Dixey and his success in
creating what is known as the Dixey school
of burlesque:
There Is probably no artist on the American
stage to-day who presents to his audiences more
picturesqueness and genuine merit, and no one
has done more conscientious work to elevate
to a high moral plane the burlesque side of the
dramatic profession. His cardinal idea as en-
cied IN the two plays presented here is abso-
lutte cleanliness. There is nothing 10 offend the
eye or the ear, and there is much TO please both
senses. Carrying with him company of artists
of fine capacity, scenery by the carload, indi-
Gates an amount of enterprise and desire to
please that is rarely found in this age of very
mediocre travelling companies.
The box sheet for the sale of seats opens
to morrow. The same prices are to obtain
here that ruled in San Francisco and all
other points where the troupe has appeared.

An Excellent Thing.

Colonel r. NJ. Thompson, of the Trade
and Commerce Publishing Company, has
returned to Sacramento after an absence of
four years, and proposes iopublish another
pamphlet upon this city. We hope our
business men will give them their support,
as this is very good medium for adver-
Using. The work will be handsomely got
ten up in pamphlet form for general dis
tribution, and will set forth the many re-
sources and advantages possessed by this
city and county, and the rich fields open
here for the employment of capital and
business enterprise. Much labor will be
spent in gathering and compiling authentic
and reliable facts and figures in support of
Sacrsmento's claims. The Trade and Com.
merce Publishing Company comes here
with the best of Endorsements, and their
credentials, and the plan of the contem-
plated Sacramento Review" has been
submitted TO Mayor Comstock and Mr.. p.
<. Platt, President, and Mr.. G. G.. Pickett
Secretary and Attorney of the Board oil
Trade, also to several other prominent citi.
zens, all of whom heartily indorse the
work.
