Grand Opera House. 1.-THE SECRET ENEMY"


 Eva Mountford, Elmer Grandin and their very superior associate artists commenced their second engagement this season. in '"The Secret Enemy at the Grand opera house last night. The audience was very large and enthusi- astic and greeted the favorite players right royalty. The performance was a welcome relief to the trashy plays that predominate the stage nowadays. It was dignified, forceful and brilliant. Miss Mountford is a lady of beauty, taste, and artistic quality that passes the bounds of ability and goes right into the realm of genius; while Elmer Grandin is certainly master of his art and may be classed with the bright est lights of the stage. The frequent and prolonged applause that greeted their intense scenes last night show how highly they are appreciated by intelli- gent theater- -goers. The Secret Enc my is the best play of it's class; and it's recent engagements in other cities with such plays as ''The Red Robe and "A Ward of France in opposition it won the award of public approval. It's scenic equipment is most excellent and it is presented here with every ad- vantage. The supporting company is surprisingly good especially D. J. w. Bankson, who has an Empire theater air about him. Ada Morton's character acting is decidedly clever, and John McCauley is a consummate artist. The others are ''the real thing" This splen- did attraction will continue this and tomorrow afternoons and evenings and will certainly attract packed, jammed houses. It deserves them.
 "HOGAN'S ALLEY"
 Managers Starr and Breed of the Grand opera house will present on next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, Gil more and Leonards second edition of ''Hogan's Alley" an entirely new com edy in three acts, by W. H. Macart. The play has a plot which tells of twin sisters, strikingly alike; one welded to an undertaken and living near Hogan's Alley, the other a new conner to the city, and living in Harlem, of whom her sister is in quest. Hogan, however, who deals in horses Is paying his at- tentions to her, and having incurred the i'll will of Brogan by selling him a bad horse gets still more into i'll favor be- cause seeing Hogan with his twin sis ter thinks he is counting his wife; on the other hand, Hogan, seeing Brogan and his wife together, is equally jealous. The complications growing out of this situation of affairs makes the comedy highly amusing; in fact, there Is nc end of fun in the play The company surrounding Gilmore and Leonard mum. bers twenty-two we'll known artists.

HALL FEBRUARY IA
 Miss McCobb of Portland, who is to represent Mrs. Jarley in the entertain ment to be given in Harmonic hall Feb ruary IA under the auspices of the Mis- sion circle of Center church, is said to be an ideal Mrs. Jarley.

The true lady is always supposed TO
present herself with two letters of in
troduction-neat shoes and well-cared
for gloves. Added to them, however,
should be an equally important item
the handkerchief.
For the true lady doesn't carry any
but a linen handkerchief, If she can
help it. And she can, no matter how
poor she is, with a little extra trouble.
A yard of fine linen, cut in squares and
neatly hemstitched at home, will make
quite as many handkerchiefs as the
the same money would buy in ready
made cotton ones.
Colored borders are never used. For
dressy occasion a handsomely em-
broidered or lace handkerchief may be
used, but for ordinary wear nothing
more elaborate than one fancifully hem
stitched or trimmed with simple val
enciennes edge must be carried.
Monograms are not popular, since
they are usually too heavy for the deli
cate linen used in the up-to-date article.
Single letters are preferred, very small.
Sometimes three initials are set in
row, but when so used they must not
be more than three-eighths of an inch
in height.
Many New York girls are makingt
their own handkerchiefs, even for the
most dressy occasions. These lacey bits
of work lie in basket, where they are
easily picked up. and often furnish oc-
cupation for the fingers while caller
is being entertained.
The new woman is every day en-
croaching upon old and conservative
ideas Tight shoes and corsets fell be-
fore her rational suggestions; the BIZ
cycle was adopted by her and brought
greater freedom of gown; fashions for
rainy weather were assailed and prac-
teal garb introduced.
She has now gone one step further
and offers a costume to relieve the wom-
an traveller from many of the horrors of
the sleeping car berth.
For years women have wrestled with
this problem. Those who Travelled little
rarely disrobed entirely in the sleeper.
The best they could do was to discard
their gowns, loosen their undercloth-
ing, put on a negligee waist, and at
tempt to sleep, without any attention
to toilet or comfort.
The frequent traveller found herself
more able to cope with the situation,
Pine Bluff daily graphic. (Pine Bluff, Ark.) 1893-1942, 1898-01-09

but even she was much handicapped,
and embraced with open arms the new
costume adopted in England.
1t consists of loose blouse and
boomers made of some delicate striped
flannel. The blouse has a tucked yoke
and low, rundown collar Ny lady
dons it, removing all clothes beneath.
She then throws about her long, cir
cular cape, made of some plain color,
and betakes herself to the Mushroom,
where her toilet may be arranged quite
as comfortably as at home, now that
outdoor apparel has been abandoned.
To be In the swim the fashionable
woman must have a sash on her new
gown, whether it be for indoor or out
door wear. Even the tailor-made gown
has a sash-of plain silk tied in a four
finland knot at the left side, and hang
ing with fringed ends to the feet.
If you are a possessor of a genuine
Roman sash you are indeed to be en-
Wed. Taese sashes are more highly
priced than any other. The colorings
selected are very vivid, bright green's,
blues, yellows and reds. The more deli
cate colors, pink, pale blue and cream,
are not popular.
Among the daintiest sashes are those
made of mousseline de sole, with belts
of the same material shirred at inter
walls. The sashes themselves are edged
with lace, and have broad. rounded ends
that taper toward the belt.
Other favorites are Of silk, in ex-
quisitely lowered Dresden designs.
They are usually very delicate in tone,
and have ruched velvet edges, in some
rich coloring. Sashes for evening dress
are long and broad enough to ceVer the

heavy outlay, when II is considered
that the uniform rule of station every
four miles will. as stated, be adopeea
by the company.
The officials of the company believe
that a force of 400 telegraph operators
will be required the year round. Many
Of these of necessity must be Injured TO

It will be necessary to have. it is estl'
mated. at least 100 linemen. and their
duty will be perilous-fully as much SO
as that of their brethren in the Dig
cities before the days of underground
wires.
Mr.. Hosmer does not believe the com,
pany will find it possible to employ the
female telegraph operator to any ex'
tent, and the entire field practically is
open only to men. A pleasant feature
for the operators is that the salaries
paid will be what are known as top

What work can be accomplished this
winter will be brislly pushed forward
and everything made ready for further
execution of the task the moment the
weather permits. Indeed, the company
expects to break all records in tele-

The statements made by him. therefore.
are based on personal knowledge.

Now Begun.
downright. 1881

The route for the first telegraph line
into the KIondike Eldorado has just
been decided upon, and by the middle
Of next summer the line will be open
for business. Mr.. Charles r. Hosmer,
Superintendent of the Pacific Postal
Telegraph company, which in reality
is the Canadian Pacific Railway COM
pany under another name, is now IN
Montreal completing the last details OF
the plan.
In reality the actual work has begun
and the surveyors have already accom-
plished a good deal between Quesnelle
aud Fort Fraser-the first two points
upon the route-where the first section
of the new line is located. Not since
1866. when the Western Union tele-
graph company made its famous at
tempt to connect Asia and the United
States, has a telegraph surveyor been
seen in the country through which the
new line will run. until the present
party in the field began its journey.
The total length of the main line from
Ouesnelle to Dawson City will be ,423
miles. There VIII De DrducH llHe Soa-
strueted to Juneau, Alaska SIS miles in
length, and another branch to Taiya'
which will be 70 miles long. The COM
panv estimates that the total cost Of
the line and its branches will be in the
vicinity of $100, GOO, OF course, this total
cost will depend largely on the diff
culties met with in survey and con-
struction, for a considerable portion of
the route is unknown in detail. The
estimate given. however, is intended to
cover an increase over the figures orig
inally computed. an ample allowance
having been made for emergencies.
Telegraphie communication with the
world exists as far north as Quesnelle
in British Columbia. which is some $50
