MT. John Drew has an admirable part in Frederick Ossian in "The Butter flies" Ossian is a young man who has run through whatever fortune he had. He has the good luck, however, to rescue a young lady from drowning, and therefrom grows a pretty tale of love, which winds up with a "bless you my children" MT. Drew brings his best work into his part, drollery and sentiment predominating. He played "The Butterflies" with great success for over 150 nights. MT. Drew's supporting company includes Maud Adams, Anna Belmont, Virginia Buchanan, Olive Berkeley, Annie Adams, Harry Har- wood, Lewis Baker, Arthur Byron, Les lie Allen, Frank Lamb and others. The engagement is for two performances. On Friday at the matinee "The Masked Ball" will be presented. At night "The Butterflies Sale of seats now open.
 E. 1T. Sothern appears in his new com edy, Capt. Lettarblair," Saturday night. A young man yet, he has been a successful comedy star for eight years. The first stellar part he as- stunned in "The Highest Bidder" pleased the public. Each of his succeeding plays, "Lord Chumley," "The Master of Woodbarrow," "The Dancing Girl" Sheridan" and Capt. Lettarblair," deepened the first favorable impression and yielded large financial results. He has never scored even partial fail ure. There is no more careful student
 
 than MT. Sothern. Daniel Frohman se- lects all his plays, his company and directs when and where they shall ap- pear. Sale of seats now open.

Polls Wonderland rheater.

Mile. Charcot's practical illustrations of hypnotism at the Wonderland are making a great hit. Never before has local interest been more aroused over this mysterious science. At every per- formance a number of subjects present themselves to test the young woman's powers and she always succeeds in hyp- notizing nearly half of those that pre- sent themselves. This is larger aver age than even she herself claims to be able to accomplish, which is most flattering testimonial to her powers. Mile Charcot also introduces so much comedy into her experiments that every body is amused. Joe Flynn keeps eye ryone laughing also with his funny par odles, as do MT. Bartlett and Miss May with their unique exhibition of loose- jointed comedy, It is good bill throughout.

NEW YORK TENEMENTs.
The Crowding Has Gone Beyond Al
Precedent.
WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS,

The Crowding Has Gone Beyond All
Precedent.
Forty years ago the first legislative COM
mission was appointed to find out what was
the matter with New York, where things
seemed 10 be going from bad 10 worse,
says the Forum. IL found growing popu-
lation housed in wretched tenements,
housed any way, without regard to any
ones rights but the rent collector and
suiting its life TO its environment. 1t
recommended the prevention Of drunken
ness by providing every man with clean
and comfortable house. and was probably
laughed at rOr its pains A quarter OF
century later the first tenement-hOuse
committee repeated the same warning, if
not in lie same words, TO the same pur-
pose. Here now is the testimony of the
third investigating body as TO the condi-
tion Of today. The wding-alike the
measure Of distress ana danger in a city
populauOn-has grown beyond all pre-
cedeHt
The city below the Har!em-that is,
Manhattan Islands shown in the present
report TO have q greater density Of pOpu-
latiOn Than any olher city in the world
namely, 1892 per acre. Paris comes
next with 1852 and Berlin third with
1886. But in the tenth ward the pOpu-
lation crowds to the extent OF 626. 26 per
acre aud in one sanitary district OF the
eleventh ward the density reaches even
9S6 4 persons TO every one or The thirty
two aCres 1t is clear that in sEch crowds
fresh air and sunlight must become unat-
tainahle luXuries. Every cons Iteration
OF health, OF comfort, ana Of ordinary de-
ceAcy has to be sacrificed 10 the demand
OF the rent collector. As matter Of fact,
the committee found block in which 80
per cent OF The whole ground area was
covered with brick and mortar.
BY way OF comparison, IL is pointed out
that the apparently dcnsest small section
OF Europe, the Josefstadt of Prague, has
only 4S5 a to the acre But the tenth ward
alone has nearly five times the acreage OF
the crowded district in Prague. More
than one-half-to quote the committee,
eight ht-tifteenths-of the city's population
live in what are here called tenements.
Including the better kind OF flats, which
are legally tenements, the number is
swollen to three-fourths, but Of these the
Report takes no account.

chinese six Factory Girls.

The Woman's Voice, of Sydney, N. S. w,
publishes an article of considerable inter
est and some significance on the work of
women in Chinese silk factories. The
writer, a woman, declares that the gayest
and brightest native women workers she
has found in the East are the silk factory
girls The filatures are large, clean, Well
vent Hated, and well regulate d. The
coQuettish girls, each with Two mirrors,
hairbrush, and Oothbrush-implements
sometimes forfeited for misconduct-are
charmingly dressed in blue with saucy
little decorated slippers and sTnQoth hair
decked with flowers and silver, gilt, or
enameled pins. Some powder th.lr faces,
though many of the country women have
natural pink in their checks that vies with
the roscs they wear.
One filature at Sing Chang, employing
900 native girls, had European fore women,
with man at the head OF the whole factory.
Some Of the women begin work at $50
a. m, have ten-minute rest for break
fast during the morning. and the hour be-
tween IL and II for dinner. They eat
breakfast sitting at their places OF work,
though the machinery is stopped, but the
dinner is eaten in great room, and the
girls make common stock of their provisions.
They bring not only these two meals, but
each girl has at her side while at work q
little teapot in padded basket and tiny
teacup She drinks tea frequently, With
out milk or sugar, and in small quantities.
Work stops at O'Clock, so that working
day is trifle under nine hours. Many
little girls are employed, some of them
under ten years OF age, though this hap
pens only through Misrepresentation.

ODDS AND ENDS.

The epidermis of brunette is said to be
one-tenth of a milIimeter thicker than that
of a blonde.
Sir Benjamin Richardson, noted En-
glish physician, thinks that the normal
period of human life is about 10 years,
and that seven out of ten average people
ought to live that long if they took proper
care of themselves.
The japanese religion demands that q
man must worship on the soil every day.
Princes and rich men evade this by sprink
ling little dirt in one corner of the room
on a square of cement made for the pur-
pose.
During the most peacefuk years the world
has 3,700,000 soldiers, who are with
drawn from productive occupations to
pose as soldiers. The pay, equipments,
food and clothing of these men cost the
worlds taxpa yers nearly $S,000,000 a
day.
To this day Lapp men and women dress
precisely alike. Their tunics belted loosely
at the waist, their tight breecGes and their
wrinkled leathern stockings, their pointed
shoes; the whole appearance of them, in
short, is identical
One of the most remarkable sights to be
seen in Australia is a burning mountain
1 $40 feet in height. The mountain is sup
posed to be underlaid with an exhaust
