Iduna Literary Society, OF Central
College, celebrated its Seventeenth birth
day last Monday. April 10th, and in honor
OF the occasion gave one Of Its charming
entertainments at the opera house, Mon
day night. The weather was just right,
and long before the curtain went up the
house was crowded. And such an audi
sncel 1t was composed OF the beauty and
chivalry OF Lexington and Lafayette
county. The schools Of the city were
we'll represented. Iduna might well feel
iattsred by having such an audience.
The society is composed Of a number Of
the brightest and most popular OF Central
girls, who have made records in various
lines OF work, and our people delight to
honor them, from the handsome chairman
or the intellectual president, down to the
most u~npretendlng toiisr In the ranks.
Miss Dixie Penn acted as chairman.
tOut in Kansas they would have called
her the chairwomau.) She came upon the
stage with Rev. L. @. Gordon, ID. d., and
asked the audience 10 arise. DR.. Gordon
then offered prayer.
The presidents address, by Miss Miriam
Mead, was a very hne production. 1t was
we'll worthy OF the occasion which called
II forth. Miss Mead delivered her address
Ia good style, her voice being strong and
distinct, though she showed symptoms of
fright. The color forsook her face and
lips, yet her splendid self control won out
and her voice did not faiter.
We would like TO notice zach number
at length, but our space iorbids. The
programme was as follows:

Grand-"London Assurance,

Dion Boucicault's famous comedy, Lon
don Assurance" Is the weeks bill for the
Grand stock company, and was given its
initial performance last night Any person
familiar with the work of Boucicault i'm his
palmy days knows that London Assurance
is a good entertainment, and most people
are familiar with the story of the play
The stock company puts on a modernized
version. arranged by Stage Manager Bel
lows. Mr.. Bellows has not made many i'm
portant changes aside from condensing the
original first two acts into one and bring
ing the dialogue down TO date, or up TO
date, when necessary. Mr.. Sheldon, with
set of Dundreary whiskers and his quaint
mannerisms, rather dominates the play as
Sir Harcourt Courtly. This is another char
acter role for Mr. Sheldon and is as Shell
donesque and as picturesque as ANYTHING
he has done since joining the stock COM
pany. Mr.. Hansel plays Dazzle, another of
his easy-going. gOod-fellow, slap-every body
oh-Ihe-Dack characterizauons that take SO
We'll with the audience. Mr.. Kirkland does
Max Harkaway. the landed English gentle
man. and, as Is usual when Mr.. Kirkland
appears in a new role. the audience has 10
look twice before Ii is sure the character
is Kirkland. Mr.. Conger does Mr.. Dolly
Spanker well, a emi-juvenile role that suits
very good. while in others he is hardly up
to his usual limit OF effervescence. Mr..
Miles gave a very clever presentation of the
character of Lawyer NEEDLE. Mr.. Miless
photographs were the souvenir for the even
ing, and, of course, he had to please his
many friends. Miss Shannon appears this
week as Lady Gay Spanker and is most ac-
ceptabe. She rose admirably TO the OPP
portunities in the description Of the hunt,
and was quite a refreshing bit all through
the play. Miss Daily, as Grace Harkaway,
is as sweet young woman as ever, and as
capricious as could be desired. Mr.. Patton
does Charles Courtley quite acceptabiy and
again brings his unique comedy talent into
play when he appears in clerical garb IN
the third and fourth acts. Miss Berg has
the minor role of Pert. The smaller roles IN
the play are all well handled. The stage
settings are unusually handsome, especially
the garden scene and the drawing room.
They got their share OF applause-enougn,
certainly, to make Scenic Artist Ritter proud
of his work. Mr. Ritter has contributed In
large way to the entertainment OF the
Grand audiences this season and TO the sue
cess of the plays by his versatile ability
with brush and colors.

No actress who has walked the boards in
this city during the present generation cares
so little for the lines of a play as Neither
sole. The lines are forgotten, but the char
acter lives in memory. any one will adj
NIT who saw her Carmen last night at Eng
lish's. The rare opportunity to witness this
famous player was thoroughly appreciated
by local theater-goers. who insisted on
erowding the theater even after all seats
were sold. The audience was not as en-
thusIastic as might have been expected, but
il broke out with untimey applause In places
that seemed to startle the performers. and
after each act of marvellous character i'm
personation there were repeated curtain
calls.
The Nethersoe Carmen Is study in char
acter in every scene. Contrary TO the pre-
conceived impression il was never what may
be termed theatric. There was bare of
trumpets when she entered, no flourish of
the Carmen arms. no throwing of kisses
from the stone bridge, nor studied spectac-
ular exhibition of Gypsy beauty. Her first
appearance was so quiet and unimpressive
that she had descended the steps, delivered
several speeches and reached the center of
the stage before there was any demonstration
indicating that she was recognized. IL the
audience expected TO see woman similar in
features or appearance In any way to the
Nethersole who played here four years ago,
there Is little wonder she was not recognized.
There Is a different Nethersole for every
character. just as there Is a different Mans
field Tor every part he portrays Nethersole
Is the unique realiSt of the modern stage,
unique because at this time none can be
called TO mind who even approach her in
self-enaeement and complete merging of
identity In the character
Her conception of Carmen is the greatest
OF them all and Is undenably the Carmen
OF flesh and blood described in the books
II Is not the Carmen generally painted by
players. Heretofore one has seen only the
beautiful, sinuous creature that poets write
about from their ina gination. She has been
made as romantic and tender as Juliet so
that her fate has appealed TO the audience
not as the just fate OF a human cat but
rather as one with the full sympathy of
the audience which had been Charmed with
her picturesque love-makng and which
hated TO see the charming coquette slain
Nethersoie evidently has no prudsh notion
about the type OF woman TO which Carmen
belongs She conceives her to be a female
OF no conscience or morals. She is the self
willed. savage gypsy girl. imbued with the
Her only motive In life Is the selfish desire
OF the female animal.

Action Of elders" Causing No Little
Talk in the Churches.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
JEFFERSONVILLE, Ind, March CO.
The actions of two elders of the Mormon
Church in this city for several weeks has
caused quite stir in religious circles. The
two men give their names as Albert Mabey,
jr., and Oren Packwood and for several
days have been making a house-to-house
canvass, trying to convert the citizens to
their belief They also distribute little
tracts entitled Articles of Faith of the
Mormon or Latter-day Saints Church"
At many places they have become quite
abusive in their endeavor to further their
cause The men claim not to be preaching
polygamy, but THE beautiful truths of
doctrine that in nine years has penetrated
nearly every State in the Union" Sunday
night Rev. j. L. Hearst, pastor of the First
Presbyterian Church, took for his subject,
''Mormons in Jacksonville BY using quo
tations from the pamphlets distributed by
the elders he endeavored to show that
the Mormons did not themselves believe the
statements in the light that they were con-
strued by the public in general.
One of the beliefs of the Mormons and
an example of their construction of the
Bible" said Rev Hearst, lis that God is
material being. subject TO all things mate
rial" He continued by defining clearly the
belief of this religious sect, as he observed
He said that it was no difficult matter for
the MormonS to conStrue any portion of the
Bible to their own taste Rev. Hearst said
that to his own personal knowledge poyg-
amy still existed in Utah, and that the law
against it was a dead letter. AS exam
pie he quoted a statement made by Con-
gresham Roberts, while making his cam
paign in which he stated that the law
against polygamy was made to be broken;
that it was obsolete and never would be en-
forced.
