Marion ManoIa in ..Friend Fritz,

The announcement Of the forthcoming re-
turn to EngIish's Opera House of Marion
Manola. the beautiful and clever young
woman who became best known 10 fame as
a member Of the theatrical combination of
a few years ago. known as the Manola-Ma-
con Company, has aroused the keenest in
terest. The career OF no young woman OF
the stage has been followed more closely
perhaps. than hers The break with Jack
Mason and all the other sad incidents
which led to Miss ManoIa's temporary re-
tirement, are known TO all readers of the
atrical literature. To these il Will be graft
Tying to learn that this young woman is
said TO have emerged from her retirement
possessed of all her old-time beauty and
talent. Miss Manola is claimed to be sur
rounded by carefully selected company
to assist her in the Interpretation of her
new comedy, Friend Fritz" The play is
a well-made adaptation from collabora-
tion of the well-known authors Erckmann
and Chatrain. It's incidents are not excit-
Ing, but perfectly natural and its person
ages are real men and women of the To-
cality they represent. The placid but pic
turesque life OF an Alsatian village is por-
trayed with marvellous fidelity. One of the
prominent inhabitants is well-to-do,
tented old bachelor, Fritz Kobus He is
confirmed in his opposition to matrimony,
not from any cynical or harsh views tow
ard the fair sex. since the man is genial
generous and affectionate by nature. He
simply prefers the freedom of single life
10 what he conceives to be the burdens of
the married state. A warm friend of Herr
koous is a busy, kindly old rabbi, whose
chief aim and daily occupation are TO bring
about marriages between the young peo-
pie or the village. His tireless attempts to
persuade Fritz and his companions to take
unto themselves wives have been fruitless,
but Suzel, the pretty. modest and sensible
daughter of one of Fritz's tenants hap
pens 10 come under the notice of the young
bachelor, and Cupid quickly does what the
good old matchmaking rabbi might never
have accomplished. The piece is asserted to
be thoroughly unconventional and TO be
provided with an elaborate production. in
Guiding special scenery and striking cal
cium lights.
The engagement is for Friday and Sat-
urday nights and Saturday afternoon.

the other Houses.

Kellar, easily the king of magicians since
the death of his only rival few years ago,
Is coming To EngIishs this week for his
annual engagement. Mr.. Kellar has ar
ranged his bookings so as 10 give the people
OF Indianapolis three days of his brilliant
entertainment Indianapolis theatergoers
have shown themselves remarkably friendly
TO the magician. The engagement begins
Tomorrow night and will continue Tues
day and wednesday nights and Wednes-
day afternoon. Seats are on sale and be-
ing disposed Of rapidly. a peculiarly at
tractive feature OF KelIars performances,
especially TO the women of the audience,
is the custom he has established of CIV
ing some pretty souvenir of his clever feats
OF magic to the women. One of his greatest
and most picturesque illusions is the grow
ing from an apparently empty flower pot
q monster rose bush. literally covered with
blossoms of a variety not within reach
OF poor people every day in the year. All
OF these flowers are given away in the
audience. Mr.. KeIlar will show the dis
satisfied husbands who attend his perform
ances an easy and painless method of rid
ding themselves of wives who are disagree
able. He will also. as a mere trifiing Incl
dent, cause his own head TO leave his
shoulders and start on a journey up into
the flies of the stage. He displays a
clock that possesses more intelligence on
certain points than the most erudite Sery-
ant For this master OF art Of prestidigita-
ton, the making of rain of gold from
the atmosphere OF a theater is but the
merest childs play. He is said TO have re-
marked facetiously at one time that this
trick consists OF nothing more or less than
a peculiar magnetic power possessed by
him through which he is enabled to draw
from the COX Office all the coins that have
been deposited there and cause them to
come straight to his hands, through all the
intervening doors and walls 81 can, of
course, make a larger shower If there has
been a good sale Of seats" he added. with
his eyes twirkling merrily. Mr.. Kellar also
seems to have the power to raise heavy
objects, such as a young woman, from the
floor and cause them to float unsupported
in the air. 1t would be impossibility to
recount all the wonderful things he does.
The performance may be depended upon 10
disclose all that is latest and best in the
art or magic and sleight-Of-hand.

This table shows that in the year 1897
only Ell Paso had more sunshine than
Santa Fe, but that Texas city has much
hotter and almost as great
an extreme of cold, with an excessive
amount Of wind in the winter.
The government records do not show
that any place in the United States ex-
cells Santa Fee in sunshine, year In and
ear out, the average number Of hours
Of sunshine daily in a period of five
years being seven hours and forty-f1ve
minutes, which IL just about right for
variety, comfort and health.
A favorable point in comparison with
the east is that the most sunshine here
is in the fall and winter, November

more In evidence in the summer months,

When we see ayoung woman 60 out to

Frenchman's saying Of the Charge of
the Light Brigade. EFT was magnificent
but it was not war;" 1t is magnificent
to see the young girl face the future so
fearlessly, but it is not life. No young
woman is ready for married life unless
her physical condition is up to the stand
ard OF marriage, in the health of all the
delicate womanly organs, and rarely is
that the case.
Young women entering upon the
state OF marriage will find no friend so
helpful as DR.. Fierce's Favorite Prescrip-

organs peculiarly feminine, prevents the
drains that ruin the health, and makes

BEAUTIFUL AND

l seem to thrill as | then was thrilled
Kissing the glove that I found untitled,
When met your gaze and the queenly bow
As you said to me laughingly, Keep 1t nowi''
And dazed and alone In q dream l stand
Kissing the ghost Of your beautiful hand.
When first l loved you, long ago,
And held your hand as l told you 80.
Pressed and caressed it and gave it a kiss
And said, 81 would die for a hand Like thisi'
Little l dreamed loves ~fullness yet
Had to ripen when eyes were wet,
And prayers were vain in their wild demands
For one warm touch Of your beautiful hands.
Beautiful hands! o beautiful handsl
Could you reach cut from the alien lands
Where you are lingering and give me tonight
Only a touch. were 1t ever 10 light,
Ny heart were soothed, and my weary brain
Would lull itself to rest again,
For there's no solace the world commands
Like the sweet caress Of your beautiful handa.

riers to shield New Mexico from gales,
and when a wind finds Its way up the
winding Rio Grande, Santa Fe receives
but the feather edge of the blow.
NEW MEXICO SANITARIUMS.
Sunny, bright days mark the winter
season, which, until Christmas at least,
IS quite as delightful as the glorious
summer, though crisp and cool. Even
The spring months in Santa Fe cannot
be equaled for mildness in any eastern
state. While hundreds Of tourists visit
the city in summer and make a more or
less protracted stay, the number who
come to remain permanently for the Gu
rative effect upon t~uberculoUs diseases
is all the while increasing. The proper
ton Of the latter will be undoubtedly
enlarged In consequence OF the indorse-
ment given New Mexico's climate by
the United States marine hospital serv-
Ice, which has In 1899 established two
permanent sanitariums in the territory,
and will maintain them as homes for
soldiers and sailors afflicted or threat
ened with tubercular troubles. Many
years Of life at New Mexico army posts
and a careful examination by experts
led the authorities to take this action
in the interest Of military invalids, and
it Is also intended to remove to New
Mexico consumptlve inmates Of soldiers
homes in California and eastern states.
Favorable conditions exist all over
New Mexico for restoration to health or
for improving the condition Of such suf-
~ferers; a dry, aseptic air, light atmos-
pheric pressure, well drained soil, a
minimum Of cold and heat, the absence
Of great changes in temperature and a
maximum Of sunshine.
SUNSHINE RECORDS.
AS to the latter point, the latest fig
ures available from the government rec
ords are those Of 1897, the year book Of
1898 having not yet been published. The
summe Of 1897, as 1t happened. was un-
usually cloudy and rainy at Santa Fe.
yet the superiority Of this city in the
matter Of days that were sunny
throughout, can be seen by a few COM
parisons with places in various parts of
the country.
