Handkerchiefs.

We must not forget Handkerchiefs.
Think of Christmas stocking with
out a handkerchief In it If it is
something exceptionally chic that is
wanted, here are handkerchiefs en-
broidered in every delicate shade, the
popular muslin de sole. But what
prizes are these in silk bolting-cloth-
airy, fairy in texture, every stitch of
their embroidery a touch of art.
Many ladies think them more desira-
BILE than the finest lace. They are the
correct thing, certainly, for the most
elegant costume, and may be had as
low as sec. Then mark these Ladies'
handkerchiefs in German hand-work
and the colored silk handkerchiefs for
neck-wear and this line of gentlemen's
white silk initial handkerchiefs.

she consents to become his wife. Darrell
tells her the story of the duel in the old
ruin as occurring between two friends.
During this recital vision at the back con-
veys the scene to her clairvoyant sense.
Mortified, she denounced Darrell as a muir
derer, and at this supreme moment Ortega
euters-to the relief of Darrell and to the
stunned amaZement Of Virginia, who falls.
On the night of the duel ~Ortega had been
found by negro farm hands, and fearing
they would be charged with the murder,
they had carried him away and secretly
nursed him back to life. He had gone back
to Mexico, but love, stronger than pru-
dence, had tempted him back in order to re-
new his love if possible. There is another
woman in the case-Hilda, former weak
ness OF Ortega's. Jealous of Virginia, she
reveals all 10 Darrell, charging Virginia
with being the mistress Of Ortega This
almost drives Darrell to madness, who
overhearing conversation between Ortega
and Virginia - she denouncing Ortega's

geance. He orders his servants to fog
Ortega after the Russian fashion, and the
villain, crushed in spirit but malignant
still, crawls from Darrell's presence bleed
ing from his wounds but inte-t on ven

too, and chivalrously determines to offer
himself as hostage for the girl. He makes
his way to the brigand's retreat, to discover
in the outlaw, his quondam friend, Ortega.
The situation is very dramatic and power
full. Ortega determines to hold both, and
orders Darrell to be subjected to the same
punishment formerly melted out to him.
Situation follows situation. which ends in a
duel with knives 10 the death. The end
comes all right. Ortega dies. the lovers
are united. and the wedding bells peal mer-
rily, as they should when true love conquers
all and wins its own.
Mixed with this is some enjoyable comedy
between other characters, and the intro

She has beautiful daughter, sixteen wears
old, by whose means she hopes to win her
way to wealth and luxury. She attends a
dance in the salon of an artist, with her
daughter dressed as page. A young
sculptor there falls in love with the beauti-
full girl In spite Of her mothers desire
that she should wed wealthy Russian
count, who has been in love with her, she
eventually becomes the wife of the young
sculptor. She apparently gives all of her
affection to her husband, and poses as a
model for a statue that is to make his name
famous. The unfortunate man accident
ally discovers his wife's intrigues, kills her
lover and drives her away. He is after
wards induced to go to her house. She re-
fuses to fly with him, and he kills her. This
brief outline sketch will give some idea of
the character of the play. 1t is decidedly
French in tone. and yet, if all that is said of
it be true, it is no more improper than
Camille which has long been regarded
as a standard play of its kind. The COM
pany which will appear here is the same
that gave the play in Boston and New York,
which caused SO much sensational talk.

least one hundred people employed in the
performance, and what with its martial eff
feet, its mob scenes during the draft riots, its
Broadway splendor, when the regiments
were departing in 1863, and its magnificent
forge scene, with the running metal and the
s4Gden conversion of the workmen into 4
battalion of soldiers, impresses one with
ingenious mclodranatic clevcrness of the
author The piece, too, produced Il pro-
