"AMAzONs" TO SAY GO0D-BY.
Those Delightful Boy-Girls at the
Lyceum Will Leave Us,
Hoyt & Mckee's Plans at the Madi-
son Square-Theatrical Gossip.

The last Thursday matinee Of the
'Amazons'' was given yesterday. and
the Lyceum Theatre was packed. 1t
was a woman's audience. The few men
present could be seen with difficulty
among the protruding leg-o'-mutton
sleeves and butterfiy-bowed hats. Col
lege and university women have been
coming home for vacation all week. A
good deal has been said and written
about Miss Georgia Cayvan's indian
club swinging. and that for
the number of wise-looking young
women present. There were Smith.
Vassar. Barnard and Bryn Mawr girls
in the audience: there were Normal
C%ollegeites, and athletic adies from
the Sergeant and Savage schools. and
the evolutions of Miss Cayvan filled
them with envy and admiration. Her
clothes are not beautiful, but her clubs
are. There are two things one Harvard
Annex woman wants to know-how
Miss Cayvan learned to swing the clubs
and how Miss Bessie Tyree learned to
smoke cigarettes so d~eliciously.
