last, but not least. Mrs. VIM. Christian.
the chairman OF the cast, who worked IN
cessantiy on her part of the programme
since the Inception OF the plan. She gave
her undivided time 10 the matter nnd TO
her discriminating ability IN the matter OK
selecting material the excellence OF the
cast is due.
Then TOO, there were the chaperones for
the inherent dances, every ono Of whom
worried hard aud earnestly toward the
common end. They were as follows:
Cbapcrones for the Priestcsses OF Apollo
Mrs. Aubrey Mcguire, Mrs. John Met

Holmes and Mrs. r.. G. Blake.
For Maids Mrs. p. X Ewing, Mrs.
w. b. Groseclosc and Mrs. j. j. Cannon.
The best work on the programme was
undoubtedly that OF Miss Belle Dickson,
who cssayed the character OF lras the
Egyptian maiden who loved Ben iIur so
dearly and gave him up because she
thought he could only be happy with her
rival Esther Miss Dickson's tan ard
striking figure, brunette complexion md

and added to the eaae and natrralutss
with which she posed In the tableapX ard

work of particular merit. Her facial eX-
pressions used in the portrayal OF the vary
ing emotions OF the passionate daughter OF
the Nile, were really wonderfully Gnud.
Her work In the scene In which sne calls
on Esther at the home of the latter, and,
later, when she appears In rags 1T the
house of Ben Hur and sees his wife and
was OF such character as to
place her in the very front ranks of local |
amateurs. She has done very little ia this |

revelation.

EXTERIOR VIEW.

but at the present day there is coming.
even If slowly, a general recognition
that the best and most imposing eff
fects in architecture are provided by
simple and chaste designs, and having
once fully awakened to the importance
of this fact, we feel that the American
architect is destined TO make a name
for himself in the records OF nations.
In house building the external or
namentation may safely be left TO the
competent architect. for when one of
these offend, it Is usually because a
particular patron objects TO much
plainness and wishes TO carry put his
own fancies. So long as the unedu-
Gated builder is permitted TO take the
lead in designing and constructing, our
edifices, to the exclusion OF the true ar
chitect, so long must we fall short of
the high standards within u reach.
characterization may be beautiful in
itself and when applied to architecture
may not offend the eye at first glance,
and yet, as one lives within it's pres
enee, grows tiresome and creates re-
sentiment. If one builds a house and
its general lines are strong. he should
insist that whatever details are intro
duced OF an ornamental character,

Late one night. after the girls a.rl
SaIome had retired, Fergus Thunder
ard Mortiant sat talking together owe
the dying embers Of the fire.
They were occupying n Of he rare
ly-used parlors OF the ground floor. The
room had originally been called the

French windows, from whence access
to the grounds could be gained.
The night was cold AMI gusty. and
the nature Of the subject under discus
sion would not appear to be very en-
%liyening. If one might Judge from the
expression of brooding care which was
visible in the faces of both.
a long silence was broken by Nor

fool enough To admit there would be
