PLANT OF The HEROINE OF FICTION.

I once had lovely golden hair,
Or raven hair-no matter which.
I was as good and sweet and fair
AS any angel IN a niche.
Or, if / did a little wrong,
It was to prove mt human still.
NV feelings were extremely strong,
But ! had disciplined my will.
A change has cOmo-and what a change!
With awful problems ! am vexed,
From crime to crime ] reckless range,
l know not what will happen next.
From frantic woo to frantic bliss,
From frantic wrath to frantic glee-
! never wished to be Like this!
I can't make out what's come to mel
Gone are my gayety and cheer,
Gone is my hero bold and true
IN my historical career
livery often long for you!
Now me, all other woes above,
My bitter destiny compelS
To wed a man l do not love,
Then fall in love with some one else.
Yet me how would you recognize,
O Hero, If you met me now?
What scorn would tighten from o eyes
And corrugate your manly brow!
The modern hero | have found,
Upon the whole, l do not like.
He's either stupid or unsound,
And If ! were not worse I'd strike.
But / am worse-I never guessed
How bad | could be till l tried,
Compelled too often to arrest
My headlong course BY suicide,
And though / cease from guilt and slang
A fresh repricve l FUN would beg,
For other authors seem to hang
Theories on. me like a peg.
All, yet l long a little share
OF happiness and love to lind.
Again | would be gay md fair,
L0yal and chivalrous and kind
ALL do not bid me rant and rave.
All! do not bid me preach and bore.
Give back my Hero, true and brave,
Whom / shall love forever more.

FRENCH FOLLY COMPANY.
Opened a Three Days Engagement q

opened a Three Days Engagement at
Davis Theatre Yesterday.
Miss Pearl Bradburn leads the new
French Folly company which opened a
three days engagement at Davis thea
tire yesterday afternoon. The show Is
not up to the usual standard Of per-
formances OF its kind, though 1t has q
few desirable features. The monologue
work of Comedian Tom Ripley brings
out some new and old jokes. It's the
manner in which he springs them that
takes.
The acrobatic work of the Herbert
Brothers Is another good thing. Miss
Bradburn is sufficiently chic and effer-
vescent. The show opens with trav-
esty called the Tally Ho Club and ends
with burlesque on "The Merry World"
with the word wicked" added to the
title. The performance will be re-
peated this and tomorrow evenings
with afternoon matinees.

drilling with dash and cleverness that
10 rarely seen here. The comedy. like
all Of Hoyt's plays. Is gotten up solely
to please and make the people laugh.
There u NO attempt at legitimate or
even plausible plot. but nevertheless
the situations are extremely ludicrous
and the dialogue so replete with wit
and repartee that It cannot fail to am
use and entertain.
Dancing and other specialities were
all that could be desired and the singing
enlivened by the accompaniment of q
brass band on the stage made the per-
formance a success from the rise of the
curtain until the fall.
