The above card is interesting to
society at large and claims attention at
every gathering. The ladies In charge
Of the affair are Its guaranty and any
words as far as confidence in the carry
Ing out OF the arranged programme are,
unnecessary. as the following names at
test: Mrs. Charles Howard Simpson.
in charge Of the Players Club, and
Mrs. 7. c. Moffat, Mrs. Walter Rine-.
hart, AIRS. George Wise, Mrs. Joseph
Speidel, Mrs. Norris HorkhelmerH and
Misses Agnes Wilson and Jennie Bailey,
In control OF the Poster Tableaux This
most fascinating feature OF the benefit
Is given for the first time IN this city,
and will be very similar to an affair
given recently by the Plastic Club, of
Philadelphia, which proved such an ar
tistic success that the congratulations
for the club and requests for a repeti-
tion were so overwhelming that they
had to be acceded to with a second tri-
umphant outcome. A little OF the Pos
tiers chosen for the Wheeling exhibl-
ton may be interesting reading. as the
living representations later on, most
surely Will be. "Alcazar d'Ete" (Lidia)
(AIiss Hattie Reed). is full Of fantastic
grace and plquancy, with peculiar ex-
travagance OF animation; Harper's May
and fIarpers March, (Miss Flora Stifel
and Miss Jessie Moffat) the latter is
soulful and reflective, the former has q
more sprghtly note; "A Galety Girl"
(Miss Mary PaulD. and The Paris
Girl Miss Ethel Bailey, will both be
done with all the necessary vivacity;
Royal Backing Powder" by Harry
Franzheim, will without doubt be per-
feet, while La Petite Poucette by Mrs.
Allan A. Wheat, will be an overwhelm-
Ing triumph.
However, the pleasure of the seeing
ought not to be anticipated. This at
traction of next Thursday should crowd
the auditorium, since the world to-day
might almost be described as poster

Ohio, whose pure, clear, strong voice
was SO delightfully."- heard here last win

consented to again lend the charm Of
her presence and talent to this city and

day at the Park Casino will be more
than cordial Il

magnet for an evenings entertainment,
