ssJohnny'' Dobbs succumb. 10 Com
 sumption in Bellevue Hospital-
 His Operations in Connecticut and
 Elsewhere.
 NEW YORK, May 15.-"Johnny" Dobbs,
 aged sixty, noted bank burglar, died of
 consumption this morning in Bellevue hos
 pital, where he was brought by a friend on
 Friday. Dobbs then gave his name as
 John Kenyon, but he was recognized by a
 detective. Dobbs had been associated with
 some of the most daring safe breakers and
 many we'll known robberies in all parts of
 the country have been attributed to him. In 1874 he was convicted of burglary in Connecticut and was sentenced to the Wethersfeld prison. He escaped soon after, but in 1880 he was arrested in Philadelphia while trying to dispose of some of the bonds stolen from the Man hstten bank of this city. He was tried in l this city. but was not convicted and was sent back to finish his term in Wethers- l field Dobbs was released from the Mass achusetts state prison at Cherlestown only l few days ago, where he had been serving l a sentence of ten years for an attempted ! robbery in Lawrence.
 Senator Vance Better. WASHINGTON, May 15.-Senator Vance
 arrived this morning from his mountain
 home at Combroom, N. C., where he was
 taken sick the middle of last week. He is l in a comparatively comfortable condition | and it is thought he will be able to resume his senatorial duties in few days. OUR NATIONAL LAWMAKERS. | What is Likely 10 Come Up in the | House and Senate the Coming Week l Senator Frye,s River and HarboT Bill to Come Up Tomorrow. | WASHINGTON, May 15.-To-Inorrow in the house consideration of the sundry civil
 bill will be resumed and the bill will be ! pressed to a final vote as speedily as possi. ! ble. It is unsafe to predict how long 6 | time will be necessary to bring it to q | vote. Either the postofice or fertilization bill will follow the sundry civil bill unless MT. Hatch should successfully antagonize | their consideration with the anti-options | bill.
 In the senate Monday will be devoted tc | the funeral services of the late Senator | Barbour. The senate will probably re | sume consideration of the naval appropria | ton bill Tuesday. It is probable that sf | ter the passage of that measure there will
 be clash among several other bills which occupy positions of s more or less privi- l legged character. The silk culture bill was made a special order for Monday and its l friends may endeavor to have it tconsidered the next day. But this would trench upon the time allotted by special order for con-
 siderstion of the bin fixing the compensa- | ton of United States district attorneys What may prove to bo an effective obstacle
 to both of those measures, however, is the
 river and harbor bill, which Senator Frye
 according to notice, will call up Tuesday
 If this bill is taken up its consideration will doubtless consume the greater part of
 the week, displacing even the unfinished
 business, which is the compulsory pilotage bill.

who has honored me with her confidence
is TO say this much TO her about patterns
in general:
There are three points of view from
which the pattern may be considered, and
from two of them IL is oblectionabi,e
view point, though this by persons who are
thoroughly sane is not held TO afford any
irnportant outlook. From the fashionable
standpoint the pattern cannot he al
mitted. because il is only when thing
has ceased To be novelty that 1T gets
round TO the pattern makers.
There is next the artistic standpoint,
and from this vantage ground also the
pattern is flouted, because IL deals only
with the needs and the tastes OF the average
woman, and the average woman as we all
know when we stop to think about her or
TO took for her, doesnlt exist, we Tre eacn
and every one of us individuals. The pat
tern is Philistinic and conventional.
There Is, last OF all, the common sense
standpoint, and common sense, being n
Philistine and being usually conven-
tiopal, stretches out both hands in cordial
welcome to the pattern because IL is con-
yenient, and the convenience OF conyen-
fence in this world is not TO be denied.
The pattern has therefore the best OF
the controversy, because few people care
much about art, and everybody cares
about convenience, and its success in ar
gument is not greatly 10 be regretted, be-
cause it is not impossible TO reconcile art
and convenience. There is, that is to say,
q right way to use pattern.
This right way is not to follow II.
Rather make it follow you. The Critic
has been talking endlessly about the alb
sence of the creative faculty in women,
but the handiest cudgel it could have
picked up for the blows it has been deal
ing It has let lie unnoticed; that cudgel
is the pattern. Because women copy it
copy it as the Chinese copy trousers and
shoes from old ones, patches, breaks,
stains and all.
You buy pattern for an idea in it; the
general shape or fashion of draping suits

Gaiety Opera House,

Vernona Jarbeau, that most piquant of
all soubrettes. supported by a strong
comedy company, will commence a weeks
engagement at the Gaiety Opera House,
Monday, introducing her popular three
act musical farce comedy, Starlight"
Miss Jarbeau's company Is of that pecu-
liar diversified character which is suited
to the play. The audience is treated to
individualities, each having an equal in
terest of its own. The play is full of ami
nation, with Miss Jarbeau as the most
animated character of all, in the leading
role of Carlotta, or as she is known TO her
audience, Starlight. Her acting has the
merit of freshness and originality, while
her French vivacity adds TO the brilliancy
of her acting singing and dancing. Her
singing of "Pi-ouit," and her imitation
OF Nine. Theo in Where Are You Going,
My Pretty Maid" are simply inimitable.
She brings to her performance a beautiful
face and form, and degree of versatility
and originality seldom met with in such u
happy combination.

Club last evening entitled The Body of
Woman" which was listened to with deep
interest Mr.. Stetson approached his sub

reverence for all that is good and beauti-

Never lapsing into the conventional

Lothrop's Providence Museum.

At Lothrop's Providence Museum
during the current week will be presented
Leah, the Forsaken," drama that has
always been a favorite. not only with the
leading actresses but with the theatre
going public us well. The story of the
play is familiar to everyone, yet its very
familiarity renders il the more enjoyable,
aud the mere announcement that it is to
be presented at any theatre is always
sufficient TO severely test the capacity of
the house. This will undoubtedly prove
to be the case at the Museum during the
week when the play will be given a staging
that will fully accord with the high stand
ard which the play has attained. A
finished and consistent portrayal may be
expected. Miss Ethel Tucker will appear
as Leah and Charles Barringer will be af-
forded an opportunity of winning fresh
laurels and of adding to his popularity in
the role of Nathan, the apostate Jew. The
other members of Lothrop's stock COM
pany will appear in roles suitable TO their
capabilities. Supplementary TO the drama
the members of Aothrop's comedy com
pany will present one OF their funny farce
comedies and the Holbrooks will intro
duce their famous musical sketch.

THE GIRLS FRIENDLY SOCIETY.
An Address Before It In st. James Church
Last Evening.


The fourth of the series of services and
addresses which are being held at st.
James Church on Friday evenings dur
ing Lent, was given last evening. The
speaker was the Rev. George Prescott,
rector of the Church OF the Good Shep-
herd of Boston, and he addressed the
various branches of the Girls Friendly
Society o. this city. The text was from
Romans, XVI: "Wc then that are strong
ought 10 bear the infrmities or the weak,
and not TO please ourselves.
This law, he said, is simply an upset
ting of the usual course Of things on liie's
surface, but when we go deeper we hnd
that these worls are portrayal OF every
humane life. The strong bearing the in
firmities of the weak are TO be found every
where. Every one of us is called into LIE
for purpose: with different abilities and
gifts, but to do what we can toward in-
creasing the sum of human happiness.
There are spiritual burdens as well as
physical burdens. and we must stand by
each other in the carrying of both kinds.
This tiirls' Friendly Society which is
established all over the land is TO bear
the spiritual burden for this soul which is
right within. The work for any individual
soul will not end right there. The work
of God is too large TO be cornered up In
any one corner. The question, who is the
one 10 help me, rather than the question
whom can / help, / fear Is what this
Girls Friendly Society is sometimes ask
ing. But we must remember st. Paups
law and make il so that 1t is not all senti-
ment. We cannot rest IN our own help.
Having found the Rock of Ages and our
comfort in Christ, we must not rest here.
but must help others to find Him.
Before / close / want TO give word in
regard to this Society. ] fear that the
young girls are not taught how to help
each other Have them take hold Of this
law, 1--WE that are strong must help the
