auNpER THE REp RoBE.o ?

The great dramatic success, Under
the Red Robe" will be given at the
Opera House on next Thursday night
This viii be the only performance Of
the play in this city. The leading male
part that OF Gil de Berault, a swash-
buckling young Frenchman, whose
skill with the sword has made him re-
nowned and won for him the uncnvi-
able title OF "Black Death" will be
played by Paul Cazeneuve who has
been a star on his own account. His SUI
perb acting in this role, which is a
highly romantic one, has shown him to
possess all the abilities and grace nee
essary to such a character. Miss Ame-
liza Gardner, the leading woman OF the
company, will be seen to great advan-
tage in the character OF Renee de
Cocheforet, a loyal young woman in
love with Gil de Berault. One OF the
chief characters in the romance Is
Richelieu, the mighty cardinal, whose
word was law at this period in the az

WORKABLE NOTES.
Some Points About NeedIework OF
Various Kinds-crocheting
and knitting.

There is a slight indication In the dis
tance Of revival of landscape embroid-
cry, but of vastly superior sort to that
which obtained in our great-grand-
mothers time. The new stitchery will
be Of the impressionist order, and not
show the pre-Raphaelite minuteness of
detail Of other days.
The stitches that are used in this re-
vival ore stem-stitch, running or darn
ing-stitch, and long and short-stitch,
and filoselle the working material. The
coloring of the sky will be given by the
material wrought upon, accentuated or
emphasized or paled by the coloring of
the filoselles employed. Art linens of
soft eolors make the best ground TO
work on.
A high authority on needlework says
that the secret of successfully applying
linen on linen is to fasten the laid piece
with very bold buttonhole stitches that
reach far into the leaf or petal, some
times carrying a short stitch across
long one. After the linen is cut away, a
row of stem stitch the color OF the but
tonholing is carried around the design.
A beautiful frieze design for curtain
has the tops of bamboo trees for its sub
ject, and a portion OF the long, slender
trunk or main stem. The trunks can
be expressed by three parallel lines OF
running stitches of equal length and
equidistant, with spaces at regular in
tervals' this gives an idea of the way
the real stem grows. Wind-blown bam-
boo tops are the most graceful; the
stems may be In the natural bamboo
color, and the tops in brown or sof;
green.
DO not waste time crocheting or knit
ting lace TO trim white petticoats, but
rather crochet or knit artistic inscr.
tions and laces TO beautify a set Of cur.
tains. Use creamy fiax-threads and not
white cotton. tlaS-ihreads have a lus
