lively comedy called ga Night at the Circus"

possessed of magnetic talent as formerly, or, as
some one describes her, she is wealth of jollity
done UP in a small parcel of pretty humanity.
There are no tears to be shed Except through
laughter, no reminders of the pastand present

retired Miss Coggswell was formerly connected
with the Frederick Warde company, and has
achieved large measure of success before the
footlights. She will play Hetty Preene to Mr..
Osbourne's George Preene in the forth

and well known to our public. 1t is full of
the modern Babylon, all more or less strongly
drawn. By the crowds attending the Orpheum

of the liveliest places in this city.

Land. Johns attempt to capture Robin and to
abduct Marian, upon whom he has cast lustful
eyes, gives rise to a series of drama tic pictures
and 10 incidents and complications which
evolve the plot of the play. The scenes may
briefly be described as follows:
The arrival Of King John and his suite at the
home of Sir Richard OF Lea and an attempt to
abduct Maid Marian; the timely arrival on the
scene of Robin, who brings John to his knees
and compels him 10 apologize for his attempted
act.
The second scene is the famous interview be-
tween Friar Tuck and King Richard in the
forest This is interrupted by the advent of
King John and his followers in pursuit. of
Richard, who is fatally wounded by his
brother John.
Fountains Abbey makes up the third scene.
The fourth shows the foresters in the heart
of "Green Sherwood; the coming, in male
costume of Marian and Marjorie; the love
scenes between Robin and Marian, and be-
tween Littlejohn and Marjorie.
The prison near StaineS is shown in the fifth
scene with an affecting parting interview be-
tween Robin and Friar Tuck and Robins fare

the famous Magma Charta Island in the middle
of the stream. This scene also represents the
historical picture OF the signing of the great
charter.
From first to last 'fRunnymede" is full of
action. The lines are written in blank verse
and are sustained by exquisite music, the work
of II. J. Stewart. 1t may be said that from the
time the curtain rises on the first scene until it
falls on the close there is continuous move

Mesmerism and Psychology.

Professor R. B. Dodd, who halls from this

progress through the East, discoursing on his
favorite themes, to the study of which he has
devoted his life but the attempt to solve them

however, attracting widespread attention just

told the people in few words before the cur

occasionally he forgot he was too fat, and his
action was too nimble for the amount of ap-

Another English Star.

Herbert Beerbohm Tree arrived in New York
on Wednesday, January %, and proposes to
make his appearance at Abbey's tomorrow
evening. Besides his reported great acting
ability Tree is the manager OF the London
Haymarket. His acting scope is from the Rev
Mr.. Spaulding in "The Private Secretary to
the lofty heights of "Hamlet."
MIR. Tree was born in London In 1893 OF Ger
man parentage on the paternal side. Educated
partly in England and partly in Germany, he
entered his fathers office as grain merchant
in 1870. But strong love for acting soon
manifested itself, and in 1878 he made his
first professional appearance at the Globe.
From that time on, hard work, 1ndefatgable
study and an earnest love for his art and its
details soon placed him among the leaders OF
the English stage
1t is not his ambition, it would appear, to
shine as a star by contract with his company,
for he has engaged the best players in london
to accompany him. Such names as Mr. Henry

AT THE INSTITUTE.
What the Specialists Are Doing Daily
to Restore Health and Strength
Tn Sufferers

1t is an established rule of the Institute that no
incurable diseases are taken. IF an applicant is
found to be suffering from true cancer or tubercu-
lar consumption he is frankly told that he cannot
be cured though much may be done to allay his
suiferings, but medical science has yet failed to
discover any cure for these two dreadful malades
all the physicians at the Institute say freely and
frankly that it is beyond human power to remove
these evils. Nevertheless it should not be for
gotten that there are many instances where mis-
takes have been made in diagnosing these dis
cases. so it is well for all sufferers apply for help
at the Institute.
All the Following Cases Are Durable.
Catarrh of the head, stomach or bladder all bron-
chial diseases all functional nervous diseases; St.
Vitus' dance: hysteria; shaking palsy; epilepsy:
all venereal diseases; all kinds of blood troubles;
ulcers; wastes of vital forces; rheumatism; govt;
eczema; all skin diseases, from whatever cause
arising; psoriasis all blood poisoning: varicocele;
troubles; nervous exhaustion and prostratton; in
cipient paresis all kidney diseases: lumbago;
sciatica all bladder troubles; dyspepsia: indiges-
ton constipation all viscera disorders, which are
treated by the depurating department. Special
instruments for bladder troubles.
There are few of the special diseases in which
exceptionally remarkable cures have been made
by the specialists, and it may frankly be stated
that helping hand is extended to every patient.

Herrmann's Electrical Palace.

The Chevalier Herrmann-as they call him in
Paris, where he was born-for he is decore, is
said to have made So. 900 900, or, the better to
amaze the French mind, $4,000, 900 francs, in
the thirty-six years he has practlced the magl-
clans art. This enables him TO carry out any
idea that occurs to him, no matter what the
expense may be. He lives in sort OF Aladdin
like palace when he is at home now, which
half century ago was an old colonial manson
where Washington once camped and devised
plans OF campaign against the British beneath
the shade of the venerable trees that adorn its
grounds. 1t is on the tip of Long Island Sound,
canopied by skies of sunny blue. Here the
magician reposes during twelve weeks OF every
summer, smokes his cigarette on its verandas
and watches the white sails that pass to and
fro on the Sound, or occasionally ne Doards
dainty and elegantly furnished naphtha launch
of his own and skins swiftly over the Sounds
calm waters.
This magical palace is mierocosm of curios.
It is fitting resting-place for wizard. If you
should happen TO call on the genius OF the
palace the gates swing open at your approach
and the doors silently roll apart at your tap
without any visible human agency. An
automaton approaches and extends silver
salver for your card. Only the later coming OF
a real live servant girl, whose buxom appear
ance shows that q magical aura must be good
for the health dispels the illusion that you are
in an enchanted place. II you lunch with the
master OF this home OF mystery the tablecloth
will be found laid, but no dishes placed there
on. These are made to appear suddenly on the
board. Wine and liqueurs follow with the same
absence of human agency apparently. If you
are invited to drive or ride choice may be made
from fourteen conveyances and eleven horses
The carriage will appear like Cinderella's
coach. Not a word is spoken.
After all the secret of this automatic business
is simply electricity. Herrmann's home is his
hobby. He owns nineteen acres at Cryders
Point and has made his palace a museum.
Curios from all parts of the world fill its hooks
corners and inches. and every summer he IN
vents something new for its adornment and
makes additions to its rich and rare collections.

Miss O'Connor Eccles at the Pioneer

commended had as many disadvantages
as advantages, or possibly more Snob-

The vulgarity of the superior person"
also came in for some scathing but
amusing criticism. and the literary in

There has lately come over the seas a
little story about little Washington
girl and the Kaiser Wilhelm. Miss Ber-

Brodt of this city, was recently sent to
Germany to complete her education in
the language of her parents fatherland.
She is not yet ''sweet 49," but the adj
jective goes just as we'll year younger
The German emperor was out with a
hunting party and passed the school at
Neidrefenow, near Berlin, where Miss
Brodt and the rest of the schoolgirls
were drawn up to see the royal party
pass. All of the girls had nosegays of
flowers. and when the emperor passed
down the line the little American girl
of the party stepped out, and with a
smile offered him her bunch of posies
The kaiser was probably as much sur
prised as any one else at such a greeting,
but to his credit be it said that he did
not lose his royal presence of mind, and
returning Miss Brodt's greeting in Eng
lish took the flowers and bowed down
and kissed her, saying that he was glad
to have gained so sweet a subject, even
for so short time And then he rode
away leaving all the rest of the girls
wondering why it had not occurred to
them to offer the emperor their nosegays.
