Bon Tons that their show is arranged for
1aughing purposes, being full OF droll
comedians, besides graceful dances, mag
Dificent scenery and irresistible music, also
tallets and maidens who are comely of
face and figure. The performance is a
satire entitled "A Jamboree," which fairly
scintillateS with humor and song. and is
made doubly joyous by the introduction OF

Since the close last spring the stage of
the Empire has been remodeled and the
house has been generally o~verhauled.

Hair Curling Triumph.

Philadelphia Press.
The funny man must give up another
field prolific of many humorous paragraphs
at woman's expense. Curl papers, crimp-
ing pins, kid rollers, and the like lave long
afforded him much material whereon to
sharpen his wit, and he has even gone SO
far as to consider them sufficient grounds
for divorce. But they are now things of
the past, for they have been ousted by a
new device that does the work equally we'll
and is decidedly pretty in the bargain. The
new arrangement consists of a hollow tube,
about three inches long. with a narrow slit
its entire length. Through this tube a piece
of ribbon is run with the ends left hang
ing. The hair is then woun tightly
around the tube, the ribbon brought up
through the slit, the ends tied in a pretty
bow, the tube slipped out, and there you
are. Another piece of ribbon is inserted
in the tube. and II is ready for the next
lock. When the operation is finished the
face is surrounded by a bewitching row
of little bows. which are vastly becoming
and much more comfortable to sleep on
than any of the aforetime means of &C
q%uiring wavy tresses. Now that such a
method has been discovered, every one
wonders that 1T was so long in coming.

NEWS OF A PEOPLE
ATTRACTIONS AT THE PARK AND
EMPIRE TnEATERs THIS WEEK.
Interesting Gossip of Those Who
Make Their Living ON the
Theatrical boards.

Con T. Murphy's beautiful romantic Irish
comedy drama, THE Game Keeper" will
be presented at the Park Theater to-mor-
row. Tuesday and Wednesday for the first
time in indianapolis. The title OF the play
seems a happy thought. since it prepares an
audience for an atmosphere at once new,
strange and fascinating. No country in the
world possesses so much material from
which dramatists may draw romantic in
terest as the Emeral isle, where the line
between aristocrat and pauper is drawn
with startling sharpness. Derry Doolan,
the hero of the play, is im~personated by the
clever singing and dancing comedian,
Smith O'Brien, who starred seven seasons
In ". II. Powers's Ivy Leaf" also from
the pen OF Mr.. Murphy. 1.-The Game
Keeper is interviewer with diverse and
characteristic threads of human interest.
Some OF the stage pictures portray the life
OF the Celtic aristosracy where high breed
ing and wealth entail the same keen sor-
rows as are found in the homes Of the
poor. Quite a vein of comedy runs through
the p~lay-humor both of scene and charac-
ter-and many agreeable touches of rough
and ready fun kept within reasonable
bounds will be noted. Mr.. O'Brien will be
supported by a company of uniform ex-
c~ellence. according TO the claim made by
the managers, Messrs. Rowland and Cliff
ford.
One Of the striking stage settings is the
view of the O'Nein Castle of Dublin county,
Ireland. and another unique and handsome
picture is that of the historic Dublin Chap
ell. THE Game Keeper will be presented
at both matinee and night performances
until Thursday.

.The woman i'm Black, Thursday

Grattan Donnelly's political melodrama,
The Woman in Black" is the Parks Of
fesing for the latter half of the present
week., beginning with the matinee Thurs
day. The play is new in popular priced
houses. It's story is described as a romantic
one. with strong heart interest" well
told and cleverly constructed. It skirts the
verge of politics, thus avoiding the danger
OF boring the people. Each act eliminates
in a strong climax. The author has en-
deavored TO portray certain phases of city
life in a graphic manner. and to that end
had reproduced several sensational scenes
which will no doubt command more than
ordinary attention. The scenery carried
with the production is said TO be very ar
tistic, and the effects are claimed TO be
exceptionally fine. A prominent feature is
the Juggling act of De Hollis ahd Valera.
Other specialties will be contributed by
Joseph d. Clifton, w. NJ. Roe, Charles Nor
timer, Dorothy Grey, Helene Bailey, June
Agnott and Josephine Valera.
AS a special feature for Thursday nights
performance a leased wire will be run into
one OF the boxes OF the theater from which
an operator will receive fresh news of the
Mccoy and Corbet fght-the last to occur
in New York State prior 10 the expiration
of the famous Horton boxing law.

Crediting Mrs. Ella Wheeler Wilcox TO the
commonwealth of Michigan. and demand
ing an apology and correction. We are
vastly chagrined by this act of heedlessness
and by the knowledge that our error has
brought pain and annoyance to our good
friends in Wisconsin. The Century Diction-
airy of Names most unjustly makes no
mention of Ella, but Allibone's Dictionary
of Authors and that grand repository OF
contemporaneous distinction, Who's Who
in America, unite in the assertion that Ella
was born ar Johnstown Center. Wis,

estimate that she has put in nearly ffty-six
years of usefulness and poetic philanthropy.
While earnestly e~ndeavoring TO atone for
cur unintentional act of injustice. we may
call attention TO certain writings which
have immortalized the lady ana dispensed
much happiness and beneficence. notably
Poems of Pleasure" Poems of Passion"
"A Double Life Sweet Danger" Per-
dita," IAN Erring Woman's Love" And
we think we may with propriety quote the
opinion of the Nation as TO Mrs. Wilcox's
literary trend. an opinion expressed quite
twenty years ago:
When Miss Wheeler writes simply and
calmly. keeping on her own ground of life
and experience. she is strong"
We must dissent from this expression. 1t
seems TO us that calmness and simplicity
are not Elias strong points: that in point
OF TACT she is strongest when she gives
free rein to her surging emotions and opens
the f~ioodgateS of her impetuous nature.
The two typical daughters of Wisconsin
were Ella and Rose of butchers Coolly.
Rose came 10 Chicago and cooled off. while
Ella went to Connecticut and continued TO

Sleeves and Wraps.
few York Evening Post

New York Evening Post.
Rumor says that sleeves are to be a de-
gree fuller, or, at least, the shoulder point
is TO be accumulated by a return to eqau-
lets, small caps, etc. This is agreeable
news to many. for few women appear to ad-
vantage in sleeves devoid of any sort of
trimming or fullness on the shoulders. The
fashion of extending the yoke, so as to
cover a portion of the upper arm. gives a
cramped and often careless look to the
waist. Transparent Jokes and sleeves have
been greatly used this season, but they are
IN bad taste for the street, and so worn,
nave in most instances looked vulgar. A
thin lining of chiffon has frequently been
laid beneath the transparent yoke and
sleeve fabric. but this slight addition has
not mitigated in any great degree the ball
room appearance of these ~diaphanous por-
tons of the street waists made wholly of
ret or lace.
The autumn will bring a great many
handsome full-length wraps, and a num-
Der of half-length, th~ree-quarter, and jacket
styles, reaching a few inches below the
waist, and variously shaped and adjusted.

Charity Work for women.

Mrs. John Sherwood, in Harper's Bazaar.
Much wrong is done in the sacred name
of charity in taking up a poor girl, giving
her an undue idea of her talents. sending
her TO Paris to study singing, telling her
she will be a great prima donna, and then
deserving her If she fails. 1t is just then
that she needs charity. and the person who
is able TO give should investigate such
cases. Sometimes a poor girl has a super
ior voice. and is able to excite envy. She
is bounded out of her place by some one
who cannot sing as we'll as she does.
Such a person lifted up to the highest
hopes, dropped TO the lowest rung OF de-
spair, is the person to help. She needs
that twenty fairs be given for her. Do not
let her starve. The forgotten artist who
is so poor. so old. SO hungry, it is her pic
ture which should he ratified for. And.
above all. have the charity of the heart for
those who are attacked. There is more
need of a little kline i~ncredulity sometimes
than for much money.
