When the curtain rises on the law offices

disappearance has laid bare defalcations

honor of the firm by repaying the money.
The appearance of Sir Humphrey Bum

reconsidering his refusal to benefit under
the will OF his uncle, hampered by the
conditions that he renounce his nationality,

his rich inheritance with his English cousin,

She therefore takes only a passing inter

The action of the comedy shows how

Grnnd-IngersoIrs Lecture Tonight.

Robert G. Ingersoll who is scheduled TO
deliver his latest lecture on How TO Re
form Mankind" at the Grand tonight. is
one of the most popular men in the United
States. Aside from his views on religion,
which may or may not be in accord with
those of his listeners, he is an orator
whose lectures give an intellectual pleas
ure. He has marked vein of poetry in his
nature that finds expression whenever he
speaks. Ii is hardly necessary TO say that
he is humorist. Every true poet has more
or less humOr in his composition, and in the
case of Colonel Ingersoll ii bubbles forth
without effort. i'm a sparkling stream that
brightens everything around him. When he
drops into a serious mood. and lays down.
with incisive logic. the facts that he has
gathered by long years of scholarly re-
search, his auditors listen with an intense
interest that is an unconscious tribute TO
the power of his reasoning. Then he breaks
out into some droll turn of expression, or
with some irresiStibly comic anecdote, and
clinches the assertion that he has just
made i'm sober earneStnesS. An orator and
philosopher OF many sides, il is no wonder
that he is able To attract large audiences

IN LONDON BARBER SHOPS.
Shaving Mugs Adorned with Emblems
of the Owners Business.

Shaving Mugs Adorned with Emblems
of the Owners Business.
an interesting feature of the east end
barber shops is the rack of pigeonholes
filled with shaving mugs, each bearing,
usually in German text, the name of the
owner, says Pearson's Weekly. The
shaving mug is evidently esteemed a
valuable advertising medium, for
many a mug bears, in addition to the
owners name, some emblem of his
business. The undertaken puts on his
mug the picture of a richly-appointed
hearse, with all the proper trappings Of
woe. The butcher decorates his mug
with shoulders of mutton, pigs heads
and linked sausages. The dentist dis
plays the traditional double row of an
noyingly perfect teeth. The fireman's
mug bears the illuminated picture Of a
fire engine.
Vain and handsome men adorn their
cups with photographs of themselves.
Others place beneath their names some
inscription-a sentiment from the poets
or an old German rhyme of good cheer.
A child's photograph occasionally APP
pears on a shaving mug and now and
then a coat of arms is emblazoned above
the owners name. for coats Of arms are
as abundant in the east end as elsewhere
in the town. Sometimes it is a national
coat of arms. German, Austrian, Swiss
or Italian, displayed in honor of tn de-
serted fatherland.
