ner that was startling to say the least. Her
first costume was well enough. 1t was that OF
a student, and was neat, pretty and TASTEFUL
The second was negligee in no sense remark-
able, but the third produced j sensation. 1t
consisted of pair of tights and closely-ntting
upper garment that clung without crease TO
every curve It was in these light and airy
nothings that Miss JOhnstone took the center
of the stage and posed as a model in the studio
scene. There was not trace of drapery. and
when the posing was finished Mr.. Lackaye
carefully embodied her in loosely flowing wrap
thar only emphasized the nakeGness of her
neck and ankles.
ITO say the spectators were surprised but
feebly expresses the sensation caused by the
exposure. They fairly gasped for breath. In
the fourth act Miss Johnsrone wore a light
silk wrapper of such himsy material that it
clung persistently to her and disclosed the fact
that she still had on her model costume. Her
performance, histrionically, was highly sue
cessful."
II is not probable that Pittsburg will be
shocked with a view of this unpleasant play
and its peculiar concomitants.

Manager WA. Brady under whose fostering
care Bobby Gaylor and ''The Irish Arab" are
travelling, is remarkable man. Not physically
perhaps, for hel IS small in stature, but in the
brain department. Five years ago he was a
property man, to-day he owns four dramatic
companies all of which are on paying basis.
and as he is not yet 30 years old he has plenty
of time to make bigger mark. Those who are
familiar with his career attribute his success to
his good business qualities, his knowledge of
stage Graf. and judgment of human nature.
His dramatic policy has been to take old plays
and by dInt of new talent and general retouch-
ing galvanize them into success. Mr.. Grady Is
plainly factor to be counted in the managerial
world. HEPBURN JOHNS.

will certainly present a unique entertainment
for the coming week. A genuine Japanese
village is indeed novelty. Dai Nippon and his
troupe are termed "Oriental art missionaries" !"
They transform the house into semblance of
q Japanese village. A street Is shown and on
either side are booths at which Japanese arti-
sans are at work. Some paint on silk and satin;
others work with bamboo. making easels, tables
and chairs. Another paints on china; one
makes toys and tops, one embroiders, and the
entire show is not only amusing but instructive
Kaposka, a real japanese maiden, holds high
tea and after making the tea in true Oriental
styie dispenses it to lady visitors. All the work
is done under the eve OF the visitor, and those
who have looked AZ the village say that it is the
most novel exhibition of the kind ever witnessed
1t is undoubtedly an entertainment that will
be of special interest to ladies and children.
Several souvenir days are TO be introduced by
Manager DAVIS. and every one will have an op-
portunity TO obtain some of the articles that
are brought into existence under their eyes.
Mr. Davis evidently believes in giving his pa
irons plenty for their money, and in addition to
the proposed Village will have nneritor1ous
musical attraction on the Roof Garden in addi-
tior, to the many fnanimate features that can be
seen there. On the parlor stage of the thea
torium there viii be an exceptionally strong

titled the Power of Music" and the
Gleason children, two very young Comedians,
are said to be clever. The Welehes, Drew's
Black Art, and many other features copfplste
a full hours entertainment. The manager of
this house said he would present entertainment
for ladies and children. and the diversity of
thefeatures ho is giving clearly indicates that
be is eonseientiously keeping his word.
THE Worlds Museum offers an entire change
of bill, and among the new attractions are syl-
iyester Crooiee, who hangs himself by the neck
as often as desired; Prof. Wallace, who can imj.
tate the songsters Of the grove SO well that he
8 called the "Mau-birdp the Martin Sisters.
Albinos of great personal charms: Edward and
Louise LorTett, who produce wonderful pict.
ures, and Prof. Barbour. who will introduce the
public, through his stereoptiean. to views of in.
feresting places. and portraits Of famous men
and women in the Old and New World. Besides
these curiosities, which are well fitted to please
ladies and children, there viii be performance
in the theator. lasting for an hour or more, BY
the An-Star Worlds Specially Company.

With Marie Wainwright. the Exposition,
shopping tours, drives and little informal
teas the week has been quite gay one.
Everything begins to look decidedly win
try, the promenades are filled with ladies
arrayed in the new plaids and wearing fur
capes or coats and gentlemen walking
briskly with topcoats buttoned up snugly,
while the cheerv CRATE fires that glimmer
through the prettily-draped windows in the
evenings invite the allegiance that has been
paid so faithfully for some months past to
the yerandas and tennis courts.
The dawn of the new season pressages JOY
and mi-th for the social world, and innumer-
able conquests for those on conquest intent.
And to make dou6ly certain of her victory,
what do you suppose the society belle is
studying up? Nothing more or less than
the dangerous science of hypnotism.

Changes in City Architecture.

1t is pleasing thought that the
habit Of building long rows Of CITY
houses, all exactly alike in outward
appearance, as well as in interior
arrangement, is fast going out OF
fashion. The marble trimmed rows
OF Philadelphia, the brown stone
rows OF New. York, the brick rows Of
baltimore, st. Louis and other
cities, 50 monotc.nous in their lines
and 50 opposed to all ideas of distiuc-
tive individuality, are fast becoming
things OF the past They are being
rapidly replaced by dwellings ar
ustic in all their detsils, each having
its own particular charm and no
two Of which are exactly alike. The
advantage TO the neighkorhood in
which these new styles predomInate
is very great, while the satisfaction
OF the individual tenants must he
even greater. 1t costs no more
money, or at most a very little
more, TO build with pleasing Variety
in this manner than to put I'D the
unattractive rows of buildings
which have heretofore been the
rule. Shrewd builders have been
quick to note the change in public
taste in this regard, and those who
have been ready to supply the want
have made handsome profits. On
the other hand, those who are per-
sistng in building houses of the
old style are finding them In MANY
cases unstable at any price,
