There should be plenty OF laughter al
b. +. Keith's Opera House next week. The
attraction there will be that liveliest oi
musical farces, sThe Hustler" One rea-
son for the continued popularity Of pieces
like "The Hustler" is that they are cap
able OF undergoing constant change and
renewal. Many of the incidents and all OF
the many interpolated specialties of "The
Hustler y this season are entirely new to
the play. Hence the entertainment has
nowan element OF novelty, while ii still
retains all those elements by which il won
such great favor in Providence last sea-

One OF the new features is hoisterous

company surprises the audience by march.

with flags flying, drums beating, horns

song to the inspiriting tune of "Marc hing

Another Of the more important OF the
novelties OF "The Hustler' this season is
q remarkable act by James p. Smith and
James +. Smith, in which these agile and
clever performers, in the guise OF two
Coxeyite tramps, display amazing skill as
acrobats, and at the same time evoke
howls OF laughter from the audience.
Ihe features just mentioned are but two
OF many that combine to make "The
Hustler" one OF the liveliest of entertain
menus. Otner tnlngs that have won ap-
pfnuse elsewhere are the artistic and pc--
cuIiar vocal speciality of Gus Mills, the
unique parodies sung with quaint and
unctuous humor by Edward j. Heffernan,
. Western comedian of rare humorous
talent; the new and very tuneful songs
rendered by pretty Mamie Mayo; the
melodious work of "The Huster'' quartet.

WOmanly Philosophy,

The helpless woman's strength is in
er weakness, as we all know. but it
IS she who also encourages, guides and
cheers her men folks when SORROW or
trouble is nigh, and bears their bur-
dens for them. The secret of this in
consistency is that labor is divided.
She leaves all the practical RESPONSE
bility to the male portion of the house
hold. They must make the money;
pay the butcher and baker, discharge
unruly servants, make the landlord
put in a new furnace, discuss the big
grocery bill with the German green
goods man, and attend to all those
unpleasant ant hills which are to the
helpless woman as mountains
But she is the one who takes the
spiritual responsibilities. When any

to the rosy-cheeked giant husband
whom she orders about so delightfully."-
is in trouble he comes straight to her.
1t is strange where she gets all these
mental balms which soothe so effect
ually; and her resources are unlimited.
When the giant is ill and. like every
ether sick man, is sure he is going to
die. she sits beside him and talks to
him. Her comforting words are more
sweet than logical and she mixes up
pet names. religion and practical adj
vice SO indiscriminatcly that he is

systematic chaos of the feminine mind
but she walks nOiSelcsSly. her voice is

makes him see things in an entirely

SAVAGE ANIMALS.
How Wild Beasts Differ in Muscular
Strength and Fierceness.

How Wild Beasts Differ in Muscular
Strength and Fierceness.
1t is the opinion of tanners that the
tiger is more to BE feared than the lion.
one will kill man with as much ease
as the other; but the lion gives fair
warning of his murderous intention by
rushing at his victim with roar,
whereas the tiger, true representative
Of the eat tribe, comes sneaking up
with the semblance of an affectionate
purr, only to set his fangs, with sud-
den spring, into the very life of his
victim The lion has somewhat great.
or muscular power than the tiger, but
the latter has greater quickneSS. In
intelligence they are about equal.
If lion and a strong horse We're to
pull in opposite directions, the horse
would would pull the lion backward
with comparative ease; but if the lion
were hitchcd behind the horse and
facing in the same direction. and were
allowed to exert his strength in back
ing. he could easily pull the horse
down upon his launches, or drag him
across the ring. so much greater is his
strength when eNerted backward from
the hind legs than in pulling forward.
Il distance of six feet would knock
down Il horse or bullock with Il single
blow of his forearm, backed by the
momentum of his 300 pounds weight.
A full grown lion in the jungleS will
jump twenty-five or thirty feet on the
level from running start. In cap
tivity the same lion would clear Il dis
tancc about half as great. A lion can
jump over a fence eight or ten feet
high. but not at bound. He catches
first with his forelegs and drags his
body after him. l have repeatedly
watched the lion Yellow Prince jump
over the tigers with bound which
would have cleared an obstacle four
or five feet above the floor. Tigers
will jump a trifle higher than this. But
of all wild animals the leopards are
the greatest jumpers. being able to
hurl their 1.-the and beautiful bodies,
curled up almost into ball, extra
ordinary heights. They bound with
ease, for instance. from the floor of
the cage so as to touch a ceiling twelve
feet high.
For a short distance lion or a tiger
can outrun a man and can equal the
speed of Il fast horse but they lose
their wind at the end of half Il mile
ut the most. They have little endur-
ance. and are remarkably weak in
lung power. Their strength is the
kind which is capable of terrific eff
fort for Il short time. 1t would take
six men to hold a lion down, even
after his legs We're tied so that he
could not Use his paws.-Cleveland

College Girls Room.

Young girls who are ambitious to
excel in the arrangement and decora-
ton of their own rooms or of their
modest country parlors would enjoy
Il peep into some of the artistic "denS''
of the students in some of our girls
collcges-Smith's for instance.
In Il certain room where the paper
decorations are of china blue upon Il
white ground, an inexpensive blue
chenille curtain hanging upon a slen-
der brass rod from the lower of two
shallow shelves we'll filled with books,
covers Il narrow folding bed.
One corner of the room is furnished
with Il divan-simply a narrow mat
trcSS laid upon wire spring. covered
with IL Bagdad curtain striped in what
is commonly called dirty blue and
deep yellow. Its pillows, which lie in
artistic confusion against the wall, are
for the most part of blue chintz out
lined in various conventional designs
in darker blue or white.
The china furnishings of the pretty
Japanese tea table are of various de-
signs and sizes, but are mostly blue in
color.
The fact that the fair occupant of
this chamber is al enthusiastic yale
:,.l." and that the blue yale color
exhibited upon her wall above the
group of no less than forty photo
graphs. chiefly of bcardless youths,
which hang IN their wire support be-
low. is of course, accidental, as is the
further coincidence of the old china
plates ranged on hanging rack being
blue.
The irregular figures in the Japan
ESQ mating upon the floor are blue.
The rugs are white and gray-goat
and wolf skins. acknowledgements,
but effective and comfortable.
Upon the walls hang a half-doZen
watcr-color sketches yellow, red,
green. even purple in tone-nearly all
the work of companion students in the
:"t school The narrow cheap frames
upon them are all in white with silver
moulding.
The curtains at the little high square
windows are of dotted Swiss, ruff1ed
and tied with blue ribbons, which to
III" investigating eye look as if they
had Drcn through the tribulations of a
waSh-tub and ironing board. But the
effect is good and artistic. The fact
of their having been washed is given
merely to show what can be done with
apparently hopeless materials.-Ilar-

The paper, however, was defective and in
few months commenced to fade.
| have, therefore, placed suit for indem-
nifty in the hands of my attorney-to recover
damages caused by the same; to set myself
right before my patrons and substantiate my
oft assurances of guarantees of all my work
In order to carry out my purposes as above
given, will consider it marked favor for all
my patrons to examine their pictures and
those Of their friends made by me- and, if
defective, collect them, and l will with pleas
ure replace them.
1T has been most unfortunate affair to
me, aiming, as do, to use the best material
and thus insure the best possible work.
As proof of the permanency of my work
with reliable paper, invite an inspection
