CULTURE.

pr, s. Moxom at the United Church.
 The Mems Sunday Evening club was addressed at the United church last night by Rev. Philip s. Moxom of Springfield, Mass. The subject was "Culture-Its Meaning and How to Gain it."
 The speaker. commenced by saying there were two erroneous ideas about culture which ought to be cleared up The first is that culture is something apart from life. Culture does not be long to the fringe of life. On the con- trary, it has to do with the most pro- found realities of every life The sec ond erroneous idea is that culture is ob- tain.ed by only the few. True the best gifts of life are not scattered with a law ish hand. There was only one Plato in five hundred years, only one Shakes. peare in a millennial; but culture is meant to be within the possibility ot every resolved soul. It is the possible achievement of every serious life.
 ! What is the meaning of culture? The importance of education is more rsaliz- ed to-day than ever before. Within the past twelve months s12. 100000 has been given to educational institutions. TC build real man and build a real wo- man morally and intellectually is the supreme idea of education. and in this

poL,,s WONDERLAND rHEArnR.


 Again Polls Wonderland theater is to the front with a marvslously attractive novelty and sensational bill. For this week the three Sisters Dunbar, direct from the Tivoli in London, and O'Brien and Havel, the sensation at Keiths Union Square theater the past two weeks, have been secured as a grand double featu1e. The Dunbar Sisters were brought over here four weeks ago as the special feature of the open- ing of the new Imperial theater in Broadway, New York, and MT. Poli has been able to secure them this week by special assignment with MT. Kraus of the Imperiak This is possibly the only week they will be seen in America out side of the Imperial, to which they re- turn next week to remain during the rest of their stay in this country. MT. O'Brien and Miss Havel, the accom- panying special feature, will present their great acrobatic comedietta "The Newsboy's Courtship," which is said to be about the funniest and best acrobat io sketch on the stage. To support this grand double feature an exception ally strong combination has been se- cured, including among others Harry Moore, the brother of the famous Ray mon Moore, presenting the same kind of speciality; Haynes and Redmond, Garfield and Carleton, Mclean and Hall, the Maginleys, the Waterbury brothers and Kenna, and Ed. Bancker. It is a powerful combination that will furnish a most attractive entertain ment, and the attendances at the Won derland ought to be very great again this week.

 Once again Charles Hoyts "A Milk White Flag" will flutter triumphantly on the stage of the Hyperion tonight and tomorrow night. This company, which is the most ostentatious and stu- pondous emanation from the fertile brain Of Charles Hoyt, has been seen before in this city and attracted large and delighted audiences. As is general ly known. "A MILK White Flag" is a keen but kindly satire on on the anna teur warriors who compose the militia companies of this great continent. We are told that the play comes to us this season brighter and better than ever, and with some of the criticised features Withdrawn and crisp and witty dialogue and humorous situations introduced in their stead. Among the old favoriteS Whc are in the cast are Charles Stanley; the man whom Napoleon looked like; Lloyd Wilson, q fine baritone singer; Ed. Garvie as a surgeon; Frank Law ton, the wonderful whistler, as the only 'private;" that capital actor, John $. Mable, as the undertaken and that clev- CT artist, George A. Beane, as 'the dear departed one" The new corners are Miss Lee Lamar, 8 southern girl, and said to be very beautiful and clever actress; she will impersonate the wid- ow; Cora Tinnie, as the friend; Charles Warren as the general, and Hoyt's lat est discovery in the soubrette line, Clairesse Agnew, as the orphan. The costumes and scenery are all new this season, and the band of the Ransom Guard will play on'' as before, and all the latest catchy music will be heard in "A Milk White Flag" and it will doubt less float brayely in the breezes of popu- lar flavor during it's stay in this city.
 MT. James A. Herne, the author ot "Shore Acres has had a hard struggle to gain recognition for his art, and his present success Is justly deserved. In speaking about .'Shore Acres" which is now playing it's fifth season, Sol Smith Russell said: T came very near getting the play. had an appointment with MT. Herne regarding it, but through a mistake I made in the date l missed and lost Shore Acres. Shore Acres" will be given a fine scenic pro. duction at the Hyperion Friday night January 31, Sale of seats opens We'd nesday.
