CLAY CLEMENT TONIGHT
Supported by a Strong Comany.-A Large
 Audience should Greet Him.

When Mir. Clay Clement appears at the Opera-house this evening he will introduce a play that has been reaping the highest laurels in the East, as d comedy of d style that has been unknown OH the stage, and that is, for this season, creating something of q furore in the East, where its being played to crowded houses and receiving the highest endorsement Of the press and public. Mir. Clay Clement, one Of the clever est comedy playwrights aud actors of the day, is the author of the play which is called "The New Dominion, and deals with life in Virginia. While the story told is one of love, the theme is garbed in originality and of sytle that has ar once brought it into popularity and will eventually make it one of the great est of stage successes and triumphs. Mr. Clay Clement has told his story tersely and sweetly with every beauty
 
 of the English language. and has added sentiment that borders up- on pathos, and makes it the sweeter for the telling. Storytelling is an accomplishment with this gifted author, and with rare tact he has surrounded himself with a company that is equally felicitious in the art, and the story is recounted with every touch that clever acting, perfect effects and stage setting can give. The leading role is a new creation in high comedy. Baron Hohehstaufien is a German scien- tist and hotanist, who delights in the beautiful, and visits Virginia to study the fora of that State. He is highly educated, refined and accom- plished, but, unfortunately, finds it difficult to express himself in English. This failing causes him to make many mistakes that gives him opportunity to present lndicron s situations. Mr. Clement plays the role, and gives it a portrayal that is said to be simply exquisite. NJ ana ger Joseph Adelman has provided Mr. Clement with an exceptionally y strong supporting company, among whome may be mentioned: J. D. Williams. w. Brown Smith, Lee Arthur, karra Kenwyn. Hay Buckley Clayton. Minna C. Adelman and Amelia Gardner.

EStablShment-lt Is the
Pride of OcaIa.
ADVENTURES OF A SHIRT
Yesterday morning. through the
courtesy of Mr.. Johanson, the
obliging manager OF the Steam
Laundry, we were shown through
that interesting institution, and
had the modus operandi explained
to us.
MARKING ROOM.
First we were taken to the
marking room, where each piece is
marked with the owners private
mark. Should it be dark goods, a
small tag is used, upon which the
owners mark is inscribed.
WASHERS.
The next move is to the big os-
ci1lating washers, where the soiled
linen is dumped in. This machine
is a large cylinder, with cleats ar
ranged so that the clothes are taken
partly around, then dropped, and
so on, when, after revolving several
times, it is reversed. This motion
thoroughly shakes up the clothes
and removes the dirt, without any
friction whatever.
Mr.. Johanson uses soap which
he makes himself, and which he
says is much superior to that which
he used to buy, and he has no
trouble with varying strength
and cleansing power. He says
that since using this soap he has
never found his clothes injured or
rotted.
A lot of clothes, as they are
called, are run through nine waters,
most of them we'll filled with soap.
When they leave this washer the
clothes are put in a copper cylin-
der, called
THE EXTRACTOR,
which is open at the top. This ex-
tractor revolves at the rate of 400
revolutions to the minute. The
clothes do not move in the cylin-
der till taken out. The high rate
of speed whirls every drop of water
out of the clothes, which then 60
to different women, who proceed
with them.
All starched articles go to
THE STARCHER,
a revolving wooden box, where as
much starch, bulk for bulk, as
there are collars and cuffs is put in
This is thoroughly mixed. This
starch is cooked by steam in cop
per kettle placed near the starcher
After leaving the starcher the
collars, cuffs, shirts, etc, go to the
STARCHING TABLE,
where two women go over each ar
-icle by hand, smoothing toem out
with starched cloth, and getting
he starch evenly and smoothly
All starched pieces are then
lung up in the
DRYING ROOM,
where two hours of steam heat

where they are dampened again,
and then to the
IRONING MACHINE,
where the collars, cuffs and shirt
bosoms are ironed by an oscillating
roller, so arranged that it will iron
any sized piece from a shirt down.
This is what gives the garments
the high gloss or polish that some
think is produced by chemicals.
The sole secret is the heavy press
ure and rapid motion of the iron
rollers.
From this machine the shirts go
to a machine where the ncckbands
are ironed, then to a woman who
puts the finishing touches on the
bosoms, then to another who irons
the body of the shirt, and folds it,
and it is ready to send out.
After leaving the ironer the col
lars go to a table where they are
finished. The standing collars are
run through a machine which
rounds them up. The rundown
collars are moistened in the crease
with a small tube made for the
purpose and then folded over.
Except sorting and laying up,we
are now through with this lot of
cuffs, collars and shirts We will
now go back to the "fat goods.
These, after leaving the extractor,
are run through
THE MANGLE,
a hollow iron cylinder. This has a
heavy band of cloth stretched un-
der it. The clothes are spread out
on it and pass around it, the cloth
keeping them pressed tightly
against the roller, which has small
er rollers pressed against it all
around except the top.
This machine is about twelve feet
long, and two women can turn out
with it 5000 pieces in day.
All irons, except the mangle, are
heated by gas. Before the estab-
lishment of the gas company Mr..
Johanson manufactured his own
gas on the premises.
Mr.. Johanson has an adjustable
frame for stretching and drying lace
curtains. and thus can make lace
curtains look as nice as new ones.
The power is furnished by s.
horse power steam engine, and the
water is furnished by large natu-
raj spring, which has been dug out
and cemented up.

Newspaper Detective Work.

One of the most important functions
OF the modern newspapers is the
detection and exposure of crime and
crookedness among public officials and
1t affords the broadest field for the
newspaper as detective agent. The
vigorous and fearless exercise of this
function by the press is the strongest
safeguard against maladministration in
public affairs, says the Omaha Bee.
The searchlght of the press, more than
any other agency, has been the terror
OF evildoers in all vocations, and
especially among public officials and
in public institutions. The Tammany
ring was broken up by the New York
Times and its staff of reporters acting
in the capacity of detectives and Boss
Tweed and his accomplices were not
only driven from power and place, but
made to suffer the penalties of the law
by the irresistible force of the public
opinion formulated through the papers
In the great metropolis that were not
owned or controlled by Tweed and his
gang.
The breaking up of the new Tam.
many ring, the forced retirement of
Boss Croker and the exposures of
rottenness in the New York police are
all due to the fearless exercise of
detective functions by the press. 1t
was reporter acting as a detective
that brought to light the horrors of the
Bloomingdale Asylum. and every
metropolitan paper of any pretension
is always prepared to embark in any
inquisition that would lead to the
detection and exposure of wrongdoing
and criminal practices in public
places
Only three weeks ago the Chicago
Herald detailed one of its staff to
play detective upon Doodle councilmen
and created a sensation bv pinning
down a member who Offered to deliver
majority of the Chicago council for
$4,000.
