Entertainments. HYPERION THEATER,

For some reason or other ''Tuxedo," 1" which was presented at the Hyperion yes terday afternoon, did not prove the drawing card that it ought and it was given to very many vacant seats. Thatcher has made quite bold move in bringing together minstrelsey and farce comedy, and to his his credit be it said that he has done it successfully. The performance yesterday was, from the beg inning to the end, full of all the most pleasant features of first class minstrel show, and coupled with the ludicrous makeups and hu morous situa. tions of all farces, it made most pleasing entertainment. With such minstrel stars as Thatcher, Dougherty, Coleman, Moore Lewis, Frillman, etc., and coterie of very choice soubrettes, it can be easily seen that ''Tuxedo" could be nothing but a meritori ous play. "Tuxedo" will be repeated thit evening.
 ''The Pearl of Pekin" comes Tuesday next, and DeMille's great play, "The Lost Paradise," will be the attraction Friday and Saturday, with special matinees both days.
 GRAND OPERA HOUSE. The Swedish dialect comedy, "Ole Ol sen," as portrayed by Ben Hendricks and an unusually competent company, suc- ceeded in attracting two very large au diences yesterday afternoon and evening The comedy will be repeated this afternoon and evening"
 That well known and highly popular farce comedy, "A Bunch of Keys" will be the attraction the frat three days of next week.
 PRoCToR's OPERA HOUSE. The "Grab Bag" was the Christmas at traction here and played to fair-size6 houses. It is not farce-comedy of the best type, but is new and hard to tell wha may be it's result. Some very funny situ ations are developed during the progress of the play, especially that of making the quilt. The comedy, by eliminating some of it's parts and by judicious interpolation in others, will probably be made success This is the company's first week, and o1 course they have not fully, as yet, grasp ed the situations. Miss Theresa Vaughn in her role of Vera Van Vechten, ''jus right" is the redeeming feature of the play. She is really good and was encored several times. The remaining perform ances will be this afternoon and evening Hanlon Brothers famous ''Fantasma, with numerous additions and improve ments, will be presented Monday and Tuesday evenings of next week. NO MATINEE TO-DAY

He Wee Tny Q hrn f n~

Yesterday afternoon John Conlon, res ident of the lower part of the town, cele- brated Christmas in getting uproariously drunk, and the fact led Officer Dennehy to believe that he would be better off in the lookup. He did not think so and tried to argue the case with the officer. His argument had force, but those which the officer brought forward had greater force. He was convinced against his will, and an hour later was sleeping off the effects of his potations at the lookup at station 9. This morning he will face three charges, drunkenness, breach of the peace and re- sisting an officer.

 The sermon by the rector, Rev. Dr. Harwood, was in more than one respect appropriate to the occasion. His text, from Romans xii, 4 5, was as follows: ''For as we have many members in one body and all members have not the same office, so we being many are one body in Christ, and everyone members one of another"
 Extracts from the sermon are as follows: ftNo man liveth unto himself alone. The individual man is not the unit, as we are so closely associated one with another.
 The present Christmas is not the bright est. Many persons in the community are
 suffering with the painful and sometimes dangerous epidemic, and for this
 has not an unusually cheerful aspect, but notwithstanding this, we will hold the feast and celebrate the day. This is fes- tival for all people and for all nations, and on this occasion we are brought face to face with the undenisble fact that we are not isolated. Men who spend but little time with their families are admonished to pass more time than usual in the home circle to-day. s-- Let us consider the greatness and scope of our religion, and may our vision reach
 to the highest, to the throne of God, and may this Christmas be blessed to us. The walls of the church in the rear of the desks were attractively ornamented
 with evergreens and similar decorations. A large star of eyergreens was suspended | from the ceiling and the large stIeamers of | the same material was festooned from the | center of the arch to either side of the | chancel walls.

PITIEs THE HUNGRY.
The Praiseworthy Habit of Park
Row Window Cook.


A man who wore white linen cap
and big white apron was cooking ham
and eggs night or two ago on a cake
griddle in the window of little res
taurant in Park row, says the New
York Sun. A little crowd gathered in
front of the window to watch him. In
the crowd were two street Arabs. They
stood close to the window and pressed
their faces against the glass i'll their
eagerness to see the ham and eggs cook
ing. The boys looked hungry.
After awhile the man in the white
cap glanced at the crowd. He saw the
boys, looked steadily and critically at
them for a few seconds, and then turned
to pour some pancake batter on the
griddle to fill an order. Then, without
looking up again, he broke two eggs on
the griddle and cooked them. He
turned them over, and cooked them on
both sides. Then he took two thick
pieces of bread, and put an egg on each.
He glanced up again, saw the two boys
still standing outside, nodded pleas
autly to them, went to the door and
gave them the bread and eggs. The
little fellows took the food eagerly, and
went up the street eating it.
Then the man in the white cap re-
turned to his regular cooking.

asked man who sat eating his supper
not far from the cook.

PARTED.

Once more my hand will clasp your hand;
Your loved voice / shall hear once more;
But we shall never see the Ian d.,
The pleasant land we knew of yore;
Never, on any summer day,
Hear the To- music Of its streams,
Or wander down the leafy way
That leadeth to the land Of dreams.
Still, borne upon the scented air,
The songs of birds rise clear and sweet,
AS when gathered roses there,
And heaped their glories at your feet;
And still the golden pathway lies
At eve across the Western sea,
And lovers dream beneath those skies,
Which shine no more for you and me.
No more, ali, nevermore and yet
They seem so near, those summer days,
When hope was like jewel set
To shine adown Times misty ways.
Will bring them back to us once more,
And that It's but one long dark night
Since we two parted by the shore.
We parted with soft words and low,
And Farewell till tomorrow" said;
From sea and sky and sunsets glow
A golden halo round you shed;
Then as you went heard you sing,
Haste thee, sweet morrow Parting thus
How could we dream that life would bring
Not any morrow there for us?
We parted, and that last farewell
Its shadow on our life path cast;
And Times relentless barriers fell
Between us and our happy past,
And now we meet when cares and tears
Have dulled the parting and the pain,
But never can the weary years
Bring back our golden dreams again.

Women Who Faint.

The latest thing in church fairs Is a
bazaar held in Edinburg for the purpose
of raising funds to provide .accommoda-
tons for ladies who faint during the
service. Evidently the women of Edin-
burg have not yet been visited with
the wave of wOman's advancement, and
are not cognizant of the fact that faint
ing is as old-fashioned as Hannah
More's novels, and that any such en-
courage to syncope is contrary to the
spirit of the age. If the typical woman
of the age felt like fainting she would
be so occupied in the scientific study OF
her own sensations that she would for
get to collapse at the proper time.
