The New Schiller Tnes,rs.

The most fetching item in the
theatrical small talk of Chicago this
week has been the formation Of what
is called the Schiller Theatre COM
pany. This company is composed
Of five or six big men locally. They
are rich Individually and by their
success in di fferent ways they have
proved their quality. This is i'm
portant in this connection, because
the average new theatrical enterprise
is founded in hope and small means.
The purpose Of this organization is
to establish an old fashioned stock
company theatre of the highest of
the highest class, and to make the
Schiller a producing theatre. They
have shown their mettle by going
over the swarmiug field of actors and
picking out for their ends only such
as have attained the highest consid-
GRAFTON for acting ability. In this
list are such known values, in the
sense Of acting reputation, as J. H.
Gilmour, Elita Proctor Otis, Mimi g
Dupree. George Nash, Minnie Rad
cliffe, George Edeson, BENJAMIN
Horning. George W Leslie, Matte
Earle, and several others of like ex-
cellence The first play to be offered
is one Of American life, with an army
favor. 1t is the dramatization of a
story. which the author, Capt. XII z.
put into the form of novel, after
he had written the play. 1t is called
Fort Frayne."

Why is it that one man is old and
decrepid at As, and another hale and

ToTELL HER OWN STORY.

Mrs. Porter o. the stand as Cambridge
T0uay.
Mrs. Porter is on the witness stand
at Cambridge today to explain the
circumstances OF the death of her
husband, whom she 10 charged
with numbering. Physicians tes.
timony occupied the attention Of
the court yesterday. DR.. Gilbert. of
Cambridge. and DR.. Lang, of Orion,
were both called 40 witnesses for the
defense. Both testified that it was
impossible to say beyond question,
from Q pathological examination,
that the cause of death was chemi-
cal poison. DR.. Bryan, of Cam
bridge. was also called to the stand.
His testimony was to the same effect
as that of Drs. Gilbert and Lang.
Many persons believe that the de-
tense is successful il proving
that the conditions of the internal
organs might not have resulted from
poisons, while others think the
shrewd cross-exsmination of the
states attorney causes the doctors
testimony to incline toward the pois-
on theory.
It was believed that Mrs. Porter
herself would be called to the stand,
but the examination of the doctors
occupied so much time that she was
held until today. Both the defense
and prosecution are anxious to have
her testimony before the court, the
former With the idea of clearing up
many things of interest, and the
latter to bring out some things in
her past life said to be questionable.
The court room is still filed at each
session. and many women as we'll as
men follow the evidence closely.

PARIS. Dec S0-Within the past few
months the large shops have displayed
an endless variety of smokers trinkets
not for men smokers, but for women
smokers. This shows better than any
thing else the growing love OF woman
for the divine weed. Moreover, this love
is sanctioned by European royalty in
such an emphatIc manner that IL is
small wond II that less eminent people
should contract the fad, fashion or habit,
which ever it maJ be.
The queens who smoke are astound-
ingly numerous W hen the list IS exam
ined, and when the queen smokes her
court ladies also SMOKE, and the hablt
ramifies through each succeeding class
of society. The empress CT Austria IS
about the most persistent smoker OF
them all. between thirty-fVe ano forty
cigarettes day being necessary to ap-
pease her hunger for Mistress Nicotine.
This would almost entitle her to lead
ing position among the ranks oil cigar
ette tendS.
The Austrian empress uses an amber
+ube as a cigarette holder to prevent the
discoloration of her fingers. She smokes
a. much stronger cigarette than the or
dinary. her tobacco being a Turkish
mixture, highly Favored with perioue.
She smokes almost incessantIy, but
never while large court function is
IN pTOSieSS'
Oueen Amelie of Portugal, one of the
most popular queens that ever occupied
the throne of that kingdom, is an ihVet-
crate smoker. She came by the habit le-
ultimately, as her mother, the countess
of Paris, is also addicted to the cigarette
and from her earliest childhood Portu-
gals queen was accustomed to the
sight of women smoking.
1t has been claimed that this habit
robs woman of her prettiest charms OF
femininity, but Queen Amelie il a living
contradiction of this assertion. The poor
of Portugal worship her and call her
the Lady Bountiful' of the nineteenth
century.
To be of practical service to her needy
subjects, she gave up many houls a day
for two years to the study Of medicine,
and today she is regularly entitled to
the practice of that profession. She stood
the examina ton OF the Eschola Poly
technicha, the most noted college in Lis
bon, and obtained its degrees She
drives about the poorer quarters of the
city and attends to the sick with the
same skill and persistence of the phys
ician working for his support. She does
rot overrate her abilities, and when
ever she comes in contact With a case
that appears beyond her knowledge sht,
sends for the first specialist of Lisbon
and sees to it that the patient receives
the most experienced treatment
ADDS TO HER POPULARITY
In driving from one place to another
Queen Amelie smokes cigarettes, and the
people love her all the rnore for it, for
women smokers in Portugal are the
kule, not the exception Many, among
