Part II.

The second edition of The Cosmopol-
itan for September brought the total edi-
ton up to I'll ,OOo copies. without doubt
the largest edition of any magazine in
the world for this month. 1t remained
for The Cosmopolitan to have the great
fair treated in single number by twelve
different writer's. As the exposition of
1898 must remain one of the leading
events in the history of tns United
States, the most distinguished men were
asked to prepare this magazine volume,
which is destined to become valuable as
one of the most perfect descriptions of
tue Worlds Fair. Among the number
of those who contribute are o4r only ex-
president, Walter Besant, the most dis
tinguislled of the English literary men
who visited the exposition, and host of
others. Besides the usual fiction, in
cluding story by Mark Twain, entitled
g Is He Living or Is He Dead 7" and the
regular departments, The Cosmopolitan
contains nearly one hundred illustra-
tions devoted to the Worlds Fair, in
Guiding eleven full pages. 1t is pro-
nounced one Of the most remarkable of
the publications yet Issued regarding
the Fair. 1t is completely ilIustra-
ted guide or souvenir, as one prefers to
call it, by the most famous writer's of
the day, put before the reader at the
price Of 1871 cents, and more than the
equal of the books of the Fair which
sell for seventy-fve cents and one dol

ssThe Wife" and ssThe Charity Ball"
The announcement that the Lyceum
company vii. give At least one perform
ance each Of the excellent plays THE
wife" and THE Charity Ball" besides
its new plays. 1.-THE Grey Mare" and
Americans Abroad. Fat the Seattle theater
next week, will be pleasant news 70 the
theater goers Of this city. No dramas
ever presented have given such truthful
and interesting pictures OF Fashionable life.
and with such admirable. yet not over
drawn pictures of daily life and its troubles
and laughanle happenings. They are the
sort OF plays in which there is nothing to
offend the most sensitive minds. and
which are devoid of tine slightest suggest
iveness. Ye: at the same time they are .
liberal education. A play to which .
father feels not only willing. but anxious
to take his growing daughter. and which
he feels is giving her knowledge Of life as
II il yet to come 70 her. without present
ing the repulsive side. is alwaSs sure to be
wished for. And this sort OF plays. pre-
sented by such coterie OF finished artists
as the Lyceum company, Of New York. Is
like q modest subject painted by . genius
would DO in the field of ARIA picture to
DO admired without being marred by .
single excuse or apology.
