"Bluebeard, Jr., the musical spectacular
extravaganza which is 10 be presented at
the theater to-nig 1t and tomorrow night.
with Tuesday matinee, made great hit
in New Orleans The New Orleans papers
pronounced it the greatest production of
the kind ever seen In that city.
1T Is seldom" said the Daily
states, that the people of New
Orleans have the opportunity OF witnessing
such @ performance as was given last night,
and, barring all accidents, the Grand this
week should do the heaviest business, of the
season. 'Bluebeard, Jr., is one of those de-
hghtful extravagauzas that were SO much
the rage before the so-called farce-comedies
took possessioI Of the stage. Colville in his
best days and with his famous Folly Com
paay, and Rice with all of his managerial
capacity and picked stars, never gave a per-
Torrance equal to the one given last night.
IL was perfect in every detail, and such
wonderfully beautiful scenes were brought
70 view in quick succession, each one more
handsome than It's predecessor, that the de-
nghted audience was prepared for almost
anything. Everything went smoothly.
THE songs were delightfully."- rendered,
the chorus singing was harmonious, while
the dancing was as graceful and pretty as
one could wish. II is unnecessary to men-
ton the ability of each member OF the
troupe; they were all good, from the high
est to the lowest. The costumes were rich
and varied, while the scenery was a marvel
OF the artists brush some Of it resembled
oil paintings more than anything else. The
performance was perfect in every detail
The dialogue was crisp and witty, the plot
interesting aud the jokes new and fresh"
Manager johnson is to be congratulated
on having arranged for matinee perform
auce of the piece tomorrow afternoon. The
ourlesque, with its scenery, costumes and
accessories. is great matinee attraction.
Every matinee, north and south, has been
crowded with ladies end children.

The Building of the Eiffel Tower

The great monsters OF mechanical
skill and genius call for the sacrifice
of a great deal of life and limb in
their construction. The greater the
engineering feat the more extensive
is the loss of life. In the construc-
ton of the Eiffel tower, for instance,
twenty-six lives were lost, according
to the official returns of the French
government; but it is said that the
number would be largely augmented
if the names were given of men who
died from injuries received during
the construction of the tower, and of
others who were killed and whose
deaths were not reported owing to
the hue and cry which was raised af-
ter the first two dozen lives had been
sacrificed on the great structure.
The number of men who were in
jured during the construction of the
Eiffel tower has been placed at 5000.
This enormous showing is accounted
for by the fact that every injury was
reported and registered which re-
ceived treatment from the official
surgeons. When a man bruised his
finger he went to a government sur
geon to have it dressed, and a clum-
sy workman thus got on the list
dozen or two times a year. Serious
injuries were very small proportion
of the whole. On the great Forth
bridge in Scotland list Of forty
lives lost has been published; but
there is no record of injuries.

A Petrified Giant.

Joseph Sweshenger, who resides near
Stanford, writes to the RiUe7 Press par
ticulars of a wonderful discovery he
recently made in an unfrequented
mountain near his residence. The dis
covery consists of petrified man, with
all his limbs in perfect state of preser-
walton. The body stands by massive
bowlder, of which 1t seems to have
become part and can not be removed
without considerable labor and expense.
A tiny stream of water flowing from a
spring above falls directly upon the
head of the body, after passing over it
loses itself in the surrounding rock. The
body measures feet and inches from
the crown of the head to the soles of
the feet, and is we'll proportioned. the
chest and limbs being of ponderous
width and size. The features are of a
severe Roman type, surmounted by a
broad. high forehead and luxurious
growth of hair, which is as firm as
rock itself. A beard reaching to the
waist completes picture which inspires
feeling of awe and reverence in the
beholder. Certain hieroglyphics are
cut upon the rock, a true copy of which
Mr.. Sweshenger promises to send us.
Thus far he has kept the discovery a
secret, but will in due time divulge its
locality. 1t is, indeed, a wonderful
discovery, indicating as it does that the
first inhabitants of this country were
giants. Tacoma NeaOS.

ironing.
Gloves are found in lovely tints of
old rose, shading from ashes of
roses to deep plum. Drab tans and
gray brown have greensh cast,
which is not bronze, but as near
that as anything. Fine cords with
tiny rows of embroidery appear on
the backs. Mousquetaires are as
popular as ever, and are worn both
for dress and on ordinary occasions.

cept full dress. Green shades are
odd. Long, light shades for even
ing wear have quilting of old lace,
and are embroidered near the elbow
in silk and gold thread, with either
monograms or armorial bearings.
The lace falls down over the glove in
an attractive cloudy way that adds
to the fine lights Of the full dress.
Silk gloves are shown with double
woven and kid finished fnger-tips.

Fashion Notes.

Perfumed ink is ready for adop-
ton.
For a walking costume soutane
cloth of military blue is very stylish.
A black fan of turkeys feathers is
considered chic with the most deli
cate evening toilet.
If you want to seem tall and CON-
mending carry white parasol and
wear a white hat or white aigrette.
1t is permissible to paint the low
err panes of glass in window of a
vestibule door and use it as back
ground for studies in flowers and
still life.
Carasolettes of crimson, crinkled
tissue are adjusted to the gas-burner
in such way that the light streams
down through the inverted shade.
Bodices and basques finished with
a side effect, whether double breast
ed or la Russo, suggest the pretty
rosette or bow of ribbon pinned on
the shoulder or collar under the ear.
1t is unreasonable.f for a woman to
expect her walking jacket or long
cloak to fit when she sits down.
The garment is regular standing
affair, and she is in great luck if it
holds when she is on her feet.
White toilets will be in vigue this
summer: green is unquestionably a
la mode; brown is the poets color,
and the yellow tints, particularly baiz,
primrose, apricot, and cameo, are on
the top wave of popularity.
Monochromatic is the most fash
ionably descriptive adjective in use.
1t is applied to dinner table, an
opera toilet, an interior and a we'd
ding. To be monochromatic, to
have spread en- monochrome is the
perfection of taste.
Gold braid is put on gray dresses
and silver on brown. The Grecian
border is very beautiful done in rib
bon or machine work about the
skirt and corsage of a house dress,
but to employ either on a street
dress is an ofense against good
taste.
A speciality in the show window
of a Broadway art furnisher consists
of two panel folding screen, three
feet high, made of ebonized wood.
Inside there are two shelves for brio

In cheap goods the Brandenburg
cloth attracts great attention. The
cotton yarns are SO clean and smooth
that they might almost be called

Cheap Excursions to Kansas and
the West.

For number of years the people
of the East have had no good oppor-
tunity to visit the farming and stock
country in the West during the
spring time at low railroad rates, but
this year the Santa Fe Route, Atchl-
son, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad,
has decided to give such an oppor-
tunitv, and will sell excursion tickets
on the dates named below, at such
low rates that the cost of the trip
will be within the reach of any per
son who thinks of going West to pur-
chase farm. The two dates fixed
upon for these cheap excursions are
Tuesday, April ~, Tuesday, May
20. The tickets will be sold on
these two dates, and will be good
for return for 80 days from the date
of sale. On these rates you can
reach any point OIL the Santa Fe
System in Kansas, Indian Territory,
Texas, Colorado, New Mexico.

and from Kansas City over the

At teachers meeting in Illinois
last week a general discussion of the
subject of arithmetic was had, in
which the belief was freely expressed
and almost unanimously concurred
in that the arithmetical school books
of the day should be revised and cut
down so as to eliminate all impraC-
ticable topics. Some of the best edu-
Gators in the state gave this as their
idea based upon the results of expe-
rience and careful thought. A letter
was read from DR.. Harris, the head
of the educational bureau of the
United States, expressing his view to
the same effect. Briefly stated the
opinion of the convention was that
in great many respects the old
time arithmetic was the best.
