GRAND OPERA HOUSE.
A POWERFUL DRAMA DE-
LIGHTFULLY PRESENTED.
"a Duel of Hearts" Charms Select
Audience of Play Goers.

That romantic play "a Duel of
Hearts," by Mrs. Lander and Fred
Paulding, was given at the Grand
last night and drew a good audi
ence despite the inclement wealth
er.
The play is of the romantic
school," and is very tittingly des-
cribed in it's title "a Duel of
Hearts" Niscount de Ligny,
brother to the Count who is per-
sonated by Mr.. Paulding, falls in
love with Lady Anita STAN
hope, who rejects his suit. Driven
to despair by the refusal of the
lady to whom he is so devOtedly
attached, the Niscount takes his
own life In the meantime the
Count, incognitO upon the scene,
discovers the dead body of his
brother, and shortly is himself the
loved of the young lady who has
rejected his brother. Moved by
strong brotherly resentment, he
refuses to reciprOcate Lady Stan
hopes affection, and she be-
comes insane. Time works
it's changes in the Counts own feel
ings, and touched by the strong
love of the lady he soon yields to
the soft emotion and declares him.
self her lover. This change in him
effects a cure of the lady's malady
and the "Duel of Hearts" ends in a
marriage.
The work of Edgar Baum, as
Niscount De Ligny, is very etfec-
tive and contrasts favOrably with
that of Mr.. Paulding himself as
Count De Ligny. The presenta-
ton of this character is story
piece of dramatic work, and stamps
theactor man capable of sustain
ing the strong points of a strong
situation with effectiveness.
Mrs. Henry Nendenhotf, as the
mother of the Count and NiscOunt,
deserves mention for a very nat
ural and artistic presentation of
the bereaved mother.
The interest naturally conferred
round the leading characters of the
drama, the Count Eugene and
Lady Stanhope, personated by Mr..
Frederick Paulding and Miss
Mazda Craigan. Mr.. Paul
ding has a fine presence,
we'll modulated voice, very natural
movement, and falls so naturally
into the situations that the real
power of his work is apt to pass
unrecogniZed by casual observers.
He is strong, effective, easy, rising
readily to the demands of the stu
alton and placing the stamp of his
own original power upon the char
acter assumed.
Miss Craigan is woman who
impresses one with a distinct per-
sonality of her own, and this marked
individuality is plainly seen in her
work upon the stage. She has fine
form, sweet, round voice and a
very graceful carriage. Her work in
the second act is exceptionally fine
her passiOnal scenes being more
native to her than the portrayal
of frenzy, as seen in her closing
act. it may be that this impress
sion arises from the peculiar ma
ture of the situation, but il so
strikes the critic. The play itself
is fine one. The plot is most
interesting one, the denOuement
natural and yet very impressive.
"a Duel of Hearts" is one of the
best plays yet put upon the boards
of the Grand. 1t will be repeated
tonight.

TO the Daily LIGHT:
Last week while there were four
men engaged in digging well
south of the city, two of them were
down in it when it caved in on
them. Help was called for to get
them out. They went to work TO
cut a tunnel to where the men
were, and they worked night and
day for thirty-nine hours until
they got them out. In the caving
in of the well there were some flat
stones or slabs and they formed an
arch over them and thus protected
| them from instant death. Strange
to say only one of them was slight
ly hurt.
COOL WAVE.
At 9:45 p. m. Saturday night
flock of wild geese passed over the
city going south, and early next
morning a cool wave struck this
city and has continued cool ever
since. This was the first cold snap
of the season. The thermometer
was about 60 degrees the past four
days.

Jealousy.

True love. they say, is always accom-
panied by jealousy, statement open to
controversy, for any one brought into
contact with this class of people soon
discover that, though loving and low
able, they are usually vain and self-con-
scious. tits not enough for them to know
they are beloved; the world must know
it too, and the object on which their
troublesome affections are bestowed
must not seem untrue in deed or
thought. The jealous woman devotes
the time when she is with the man
whom she loves to questions as to what
he has done, where he has been, whom
he has seen, etc., and this last, as rule,
usually leads to trouble, for if the
woman suspects that any of the mo-
ments spent away from her have been
devoted to another, hornets nest
would be mild and peaceful haven
of rest in comparison with the storm
that will ensue if her conjectures prove
correct. Tears, pleadings, protestations,
wild bursts of passionate devotion all
mark the tempestuous courtship of
jealous woman. The happiness of the
moment is completely swallowed up in
fear of the future. Wise is the lover
who breaks the cords that bind him to
his exacting mistress ere it is too late!
AS her husband, life becomes intoler-
able. He dares not say another is good
looking, can not praise the fit of a gown
or size of shoe without being ac-
cused of being madly in love with
their wearers. For him to speak to q
woman, whether pretty or not. means
scene, and even his men acquaintance
come under the ban of his tyrant. She
is jealous of his mother-of his sisters
of that part of his past in which she
has had no part. If he can convince
her that she is the only woman he ever
loved-that life without her would be
desert, and that sort of thing, you know,
then he may enjoy moderate share of
happiness ; but if not, we regret to say
that being in love and being in hot
water will prove synonymous terms to
the man who is unfortunately married
to a iealous woman.

Getting Along with One Dress.

If you are limited as to means, and
must make one dress serve many needs,
choose color that is not striking-none
of those that register themselves each
time on the retina or stimulate the un-
friendly to counting the number of
times you have appeared in it. With
certain change in the dressing of the
neck, fresh knots of ribbon, lace or
some pretty conceit of your own, a single
frock in its time can play many parts.
1t is one of those touches of the homely
that Howells sometimes uses with such
skill, when, In speaking Of two little old
maids, he told how their black silk
dresses, from many makings over, re-
tanned the lines of small holes where the
thread was ripped out, and how they
wore them high at the throat when they
went on their little shopping expedi-
tions and at night turned them in" if
they went out to tea. Even if there is
touch of pathos about all this, they
were undoubtedly ingenious and re-
Sourceful little people.

PeculiaritIes of the Language.

Talking of the misuse of words, it is
possible for people to be too precise in
their conversation. Recently the fol-
lowing dialogue took place in a hard
ware store. A customer asked the
clerk to show him small, low-priced
shears. perhaps you mean pair of
shears?" the clerk responded. Il mean
precisely what L say" Are there not
two blades here?" said the clerk, de-
family opening a specimen article.
"And doesn't that make pair?" You
have two legs" was the answer. Does
that make you pair of man?" And
the clerk had nothing to say.
