sketches

One of the largest audiences ever in
the Lexington opera house witnessed
Julia Arthur's magnificent production
of More Than Queen" last night
Gowned superbly, moving through
scenes of poetic beauty and genuine i'm
perial splendor, Julia Arthur is at her
very best, in beauty of feature and voice,
as well As in intensity of action. The
play represents series of scenes in the
varied career of the luckless Empress, a
character which Miss Arthur looks to
the life and which she acts with grace,
passion and tenderness. She has never
been seen to better advantage.

from some of the streets Of the Cen

Many persons have expressed them i.
selves recently to the effect that never
before in the City's history have the
paved streets been in such deplor-
ably filthy and vile condition as they
have been for the past two weeks or
more.
A Tribune man took q walk down

portion Of the city. Always notable
for it's dirty streets, 1t has now reached
condition surprising all previous
records. 1t Is no exaggeration to say
that in some places the refuse was
piled up even with the sidewalks. And
what does this refuse consist of? some
one asks. Fish heads, decayed fruit
and vegetables and many other things
too disgusting to mention. This con-

LITTLE NEGRO AT HOSPITAL.
A Tiny Black Child Who Il Very
Popular at the Lackawanna.

A newcomer who entered the chill
dren's ward at the Lackawanna hospi-
tai Monday has caused a great deal
of commotion in that usually quiet
institution and has taken the hearts
of everybody in the place by storm.
He is a S-year-old, happy looking,
black -as-coal pickanniny, rejoicing in
the name Of Harold Hammond.
The child is healthy. lively looking
little fellow, but suffering from an
aflliction preventing him from walking
and effecting him in other ways. He
has made a great hit with everybody
In the place.
When he was first brought into the
ward the other little ones held rather
aloof from him. on his being put into
the cot of one of the seniors of the
ward, youth Of five years, the latter
drew his blankets tightly around him
and with supercilious remark that
'all coons looked alike to him." turned
his back on the tiny Ethiopian.
Another little fellow, gazcd intently
at the somber hue of his new comrade
and remarked: "If that baby sleeps
in the same room we do. well all be
turning black. No street"
Now. however, the little Harold
reigns supreme as the monarch of the
chldren's ward. and with the possible
exception of the dethroned ruler, a
fellow known as Freddy" has put
himself on most friendly footing with
all his comrades. He Is the youngest
negro ever admitted to the hospital,
and proves one of the best children
ever treated at that institution.
