ADLAI L. STEVENSON.
The Democratic Candidate for Vice.
Presidents Home Life.

His Venerable nlother-His Wife and
Three Pretty Daughters-He has but
One Son Their Modest Home In
Bloomin gton, Illinois.
The home life of Adlai E. Stevenson,
the democratic candidate, is highly in
teresting one. His family consists OF
three remarkably interesting girls, an
amiable mother and an old and very dear
grandmother. The masculine portion OF
Gen. Stevenson's family consists only OF
the general himself and of his son, Louis
Green Stevenson, a man of twenty three.
Louis is an interesting and a manly
young man, but his health is not good,
and for that reason it is probable that he
will not figure very largely in the coming
campaign. He was at Exeter school, in
New Hampshire, a few years ago, prepar-
ing for Yale College. One day while out
shooting his shoulder was injured by the
explosion of his gun. The hurt pros
trated his system generally, and for quite
while he was an invalid. For year
and half he had to remain within doors.
Only recently was he able to leave the
house. He was taken to Southern Cali
fornia, and there health, in large meas
ure, cane pdck TO n1In.' he is now IN
Bloomington, ILL.,, their home, particle
pating In the glories of the fame which
has come to his father, and looking quite
well and particularly happy.
Letftia, the youngest of the girls, was
sixteen years old June %, the day before
her father was nominated for the vice
presidency. Her eyes are like those of
ox-eyed Juno, demure at times and then
sparkling with merriment. She has a
crown of hair which would win paint
er's admiration. The sun has tinted it
with that rare and beautiful color which
Titan gave to the greatest of his master
pieces.
Julia Scott Stevenson is seventeen years
old. The cast in her countenance is clas-
sic, and for pure form of face a sculptor
would find her most admirable model.
There are some who say she is the beauty
of the family, but it is ungracious to at
tempt to distinguish in this respect
among three such lovely young women.
1t is as if one were to undertake to de-
eide which were the most beautiful, the
lily, the rose or the violet. In one re-
spect of personal charm Julia does differ
from her sisters. She is brunette and
the only one of dark complexion in the
family.

A Coming Attraction.

Mr.. Joseph Hollands performance of
"Mr. PercIval Perrin" in Mr.. WILKINSON
Ridotcs, is sure to be an agreeable sur.
prise to his many friends and the theatre
going public in Cheyenne. 1t is one of
the most exacting comedy roles that has
been seen on the stage in a long time,
both in regard to the artistic gifts and
splendid vitality necessary to give 1t ade-
auate portrayal. His facial expression of
the varied emotions which he depicts in
the course of his three hours incessant
work, is said by the New York critics to
be a subject worthy of serious and close
study. His performance of the role has
given him a very high place among the
leading juvenile men of the day.

MATTE PUTNAM.
A Pleasing Performance Given Last
Evening.

In spite of the tad.weather there was a
good house last evening to hear Katie
Putnam in her play Love Finds a Way.
Miss Putnam is a petite little actress who
is natural in every character she assumes,
whether it be that of a rougish little girl,
a graceful young lady or an irrepressible
bad boy. Miss Putnam has with her a
verv capable company. Mr.. Robert Z.
Bell as Samuel Smirks" captured the
good will OF the audience and was recalled
time and time again after his funny topi-
cal songs. Tonight the play will be
E7na the Ell, a bright play full of catchy
songs and pretty dances. The Chicago
Herald SAYS of Miss Putnam and this
play: Miss Putnam is a bright, viva
cious little soubrette, with tender touches
of womanly nature that please her audi
ence. As "Erma, the Elf" her chances
for hoydenish skipping, combined with
tender love scenes and heroic climaxes,
gives her an unlimited opportunity for
displaying her varied talents"

effect that the three year proviso was the
