on long lines.
A tall brunette woman that came
sweeping into the tea room with her
wrap on her arm looked admirable IN
her dahlia velvet blouse. The back Oh
the blouse was plain and seamless, with
the fulness at the waist line disposed
Of in tiny plaits. The front fastened
over to the left shoulder and under
arm seam. The velvet at the front
was seWed into the shoulder seams IN
plaits and the fulness was drawn down
into a wide girdle of black satin rib
bon.
Coming from the shoulder seams and
falling just to the bust line was piece
of pale gold satin covered with heavily
spangled net. Just at the front OF the
bodice the satin was fashioned into
broad box plat that was allowed TO
fare straight from the black satin col
lar.
SHOPPING BAGS.
Women here are rather dependent on
those tiny little shopping bags that are
attached to the waist. Now that
dresses are devoid or pockets, and
sleeves are too tight at the wrists for a
handkerchief to be tucked away there,
it is almost necessary to resort to one
Of these useful little bags. One | saw

bright, pretty color note to the sombre
brown gown. Il was made Of turquoise
blue morocco mounted on gold clasps.
A narrow gold belt with turquoise
clasps supporting the bag.
These little bags are made to re-
semble pieces of jewelry, in fact are

The advance sale OF season tickets My
for the May music festival will begin at the
Big Four ticket office next Thursday morn
ing, and there is every reason to expect a
great demand. The novel and superior at
fractions of the festival this year nave
aroused unusal interest in the annual sea-
son Of song. With a new and better or
chestra than ever before and a greater ar
ray Of famous artists, including Nine.
Calve, the coming of the festival is awaited
with anticipations of pleasure.
There will be no advance in the prices of
season tickets this year, although the
generally increased expense incident to the
Calve engagement makes it necessary to
raise the prices of seats for the concert
at which she appears. The only sure way
TO secure seats for this night, so the direc-
tors of the festival believe, is to buy season
tickets, as from the inquiries already re-
ceived, they are satisfied that all the seats
for the Calve concert will be disposed of
before the opening of the festival.
h subscription plan of buying season
tickets, which has been put in operation for
the first time here this year, is meeting
much favor, and the responses to the re-
quests for subscriptions are coming in rap
idly. AS all the railroads will give half
fare rates from all Indiana points for the
festival a much larger attendance than
ever before is expected. Seats can be Sc
cured by people in other places by writing
or telegraphing to B.. G. Kelsey, Big Four
ticket office.

In exhibiting its adulation for Mr.. Cleve-
land, the Baltimore News ~disregards politi-
cal history, and exhibits gross ingratitude
to the gentlemen who removed the OBJ
stacles and made his last election TO the
presidency possible. The News says:
But as far as Mr.. Cleveland is con-
cerned, it ought not to be necessary to re-
mind the gentlemen who are displaying so
much concern about him that he has never
had to intrigue for nominations. They AVE
all come to him as a gift from the people
when machine politicians were doing their
very best to prevent the catastrophe which
they predicted would follow"
The most effective piece Of political ma
chinery ever utilized in behalf of q presi-
Dental candidate was in operation at and
before the Chicago convention. 1t was
thoroughly and skillfully organized and
moved without a jar. There was no lack
of funds to see that the gifts of the peo-
pie didn't miscarry and the manipulation
necessary, to produce Mr.. Cleveland's nomi-
nation on the first and decisive ballot was
that of a masters hand. Ingratitude is by
no means a new thing in politics, but no
matter how much Mr.. Cleveland's mistaken
friends may talk of gifts of the people
and unsolicited honors," the people will
never forget how Hon. William Collins
Whitney brought about the nomination Of
Hon. Grover Cleveland in 1899.

Woman who insists that all young women

Vincents Hospital, New York. He is one
of three brothers, all of whom have been
actors, and one, Charles r. Thorne, proba-

history of the American stage. 1t was
Charles Thorne who declared, on returning
from a visit to London at the height of his
career, that he would rather be a lamp
post in New York than the Prince Of Wales

The Thorne family is an old New Eng
land one of actors. William Thorne, the
eldest of the three brothers, left the stage

Emily Jordan, was one of the greatest
stage favorites of her time. She left the
stage nearly twenty years ago to marry
John Chamberlin.

the sole representative of the family on the
stage. For years his name was associated

The Bike Came Between Them.

A New York paper has the following ac-
count of the experience of a street-car
motorman and his wife with a bicycle:
The cycle began it. 1t was like the kettle
in that Christmas story of Dickens, and
also, like the kettle, it made a good deal of
hot water for a worthy couple.

Brooklyn, has been making century run
on a motor car as an employe of the Mas

wife Ell was fired with ambition to make

the bicycle. His earnings as motorman are
only 81 per week, but his wife pinched and
saved till she could buy a wheel. His hours
were from before daylight until early in
the afternoon, and that was just the time
she, wanted to go out to ride. He had to
cook his own dinner, and every time that,
tired and weary, he lit the kitchen fire,
the fire of his love grew colder. His meat
was tough and OVerdone and grim dySpep-
STA marked him for its own. Often he and
his child went to bed hungry before his
wife returned.

must choose. She chose the bicycle, and
