Charles III. Yale's extravaganza "The
Devils Auction" Is at Keith's Opera House
this week and a series of most interesting
performances at that house is thereby as
eured. At the opening last night, the
theater was crowded from the red plush
fauteuils to the back row of the top gall
lery and there were hundreds who ac-
cepted standing room, only, rather than
not see the show.
Show Is the most fitting term for the
"Devil's Auction" ard it is a very gor-
Reous one. There is the one familiar idea
OF the good spirit and the devil and the
alternating defeats and victories OF their
several subjects, and this is carried out and
made prominent throughout the three
acts In spite of the rapid succession of
many disconnected but most amusing
events.
There is big company engaged in the
production. Everything is put on in
lavish manner as far as scenery and cos
TUNES are concerned and the effects OF the
many startling transformations from
fiery bits of inferno to the sparkling grot-
toes of the fairies, of a lightning transfer
from an Oriental harem to the New York
Bowery, and of the dozens of dances and
burlesques all mixed up In combination
that is not confusion, are very dazzling.
The Oriental scene is the most original
IN Yale's productions and, as many OF the
others are, 1t Is not suggestive of the
Black Crook and several other spectacular
pieces. The Chinese worship and the
other features OF this particular portion
of the burlesque are extremely comical.
And SO is the tear around and break-open
street car scene In the last act.
The dancing of the handsomely cos
tuned groups OF shapely chorus girls is
good, while the work of the premieres,
Signoritas Chitten, Bartoletti and Amore
is exceptionally clever.
The individual work of the mortaIs in
the cast, whose business it is to talk
enough to explain the pantomime, is,
without exception, satisfactory.

One of the prerogatives OF women Is to
dress, and 10 look as well as it Is possible
for them to look. Not only do men, as a
general rule, admire well-dressed ladies,
but tho fair sex themselves admire each
other. How often do you notice them
turn and contemplate with undisguised
admiration the quality and style of some
particularly well-dreSsed person who may
happen 10 pass them upon the crowded
thoroughfare? III she be pretty, besides,
so much the better, but whether she Is
pretty or not the good clothes make up
for great big deficiency. Exclusive
styles, uncommon quality of standard
fabric Is what attracts. Ladies who have
exquisite taste, who are genteel and know
what good goods are, without any sug.
gestion or help from the salesman, select
what they require in quiet, unobtrusive
manner.
II is becoming quite the fashion now in
the great dry goods establishments OF the
metropolis to simply select the goods at
one counter, the trimmings at another,
then TO visit the dressmaking department
connected, undergo careful measure
ment, consult with the dressmaker
as TO style and make, appoint a day for
preliminary fitting, and In a short time
II is ready, a delightful addition TO the
wardrobe. This takes place every day at
the III. W. Ladd Co., and Madame Jeanne
Carr, who has charge OF the dressmakinu
department. lends her aid to lady patrons
who are just now preparing gowns for
