NEEDLEWoRK oF THE NIrNs

It is a noted fact that the most beautiful needlework comes from the monasteries;s due principally to the reason that the young apprentice is taught on less than quarter of a yard of cloth all the fundamental rules of sewing. writes Lillian NJ. Siegfried in Good Housekeeping. Industriously sine plies her needle on this bit of cloth, mastering inch by inch all the finer arts of delicate needle work: one of the greatest object lessons to moth CTS with growing daughters, who are permitted to ruin valuable silks and linen, destroying both temper and goods over something that is pure Greek to the crude beginner. How often material so eagerly and hope fully purchased becomes useless in the hands of the person whose brain has no knowledge whatever of the vastness of the undertaking before her. The nuns. with whom wastefulness is a deadly sin, teach every stitch most carefully: nor is this practice made tedious and difficult by giving the stu dent heavy, coarse garments and yards of tucking; tiny piece of goods of moderate weight, q thimble fitting perfectly, not too heavy, q needle in size to carry TO or SD thread, are the implements of practice. The young women who learn the sewing are the consecrated women. so-called, because they have consecrated their lives and daily labor to God

Floods In Virginia.

RICHMOND, Va, Dec. 31.-There has been tremendous rush of water down the James river. The people in the lower part of the city are moving out. and the wharfs at Rockets are under water. The extreme lower part of the city is cut off. Owing to the fact that the wires are down along the James River division of the Chesa- peake and Ohio railroad nothing can be learned definitely of the conditions above. Fears are entertained that the freshet will be the heaviest in years The Rappahannock took a tremendous rise, putting the Fredericksburg gas works and electric light plant under water and plunging the city in dark ness. Luray reports a great freshet in the Shenandoah which has seriously in- terfered with the running of trains.

ATLANTA, Ga, Dec. 31.-President Wiekersham hopes to have the Atlanta and West Point track in condition for traffic as far as West Point, Ga, today. Mail for New Orleans and Texas points is being sent around by way of Bir- mingham and Meridian, while Pensa- cola, which is usually reached via Montgomery, is being served through Jacksonville. The river at West Point has begun falling, and all danger is be- lieved to have passed. No trains have been run over the East and West rail road since Saturday. The company's trestle over Etowah river, near Car tersville, Ga, is covered, and the track for four miles beyond is under water.

THE CARE OF cATs.

A new book, entitled Pussy Meow" has appeared, in which the author, Louise Patteson, essays to do for the eat what Black Beauty did for the horse. The story is told by the cat and the book contains many hints as to the proper care and treatment Of these animals.
 The only reason why cats have not been exterminated by the juvenile pop. ulation of civilized countries is that they have retained enough of their wild instincts and training to defend themselves. Their eyer-ready claws generally secure them immunity from too pressing personal attentions, and their ability to climb trees gives them an avenue of escape from their nat ural enemy the dog. But for all that, they suffer in many ways from the carelessneSS or deliberate cruelty of the people among whom they live. They are left in deserted houses. with out food; they are given no water to drink-and that. means that they can not keep themselves clean in the nat. ural way; and some men even think it Is fun to set their dogs on every cat they can find. Little trouble is taken, as a rule, to develop their intelligence or affection, and they are regarded for the most part as necessary evils or useless pets.
 That a cat is as intelligent as dog, no one who has had much to do with them can doubt. There are many in- stances on record of cats which were deyotedly fond of their owners; and of late many animal trainers have sue cessfully undertaken to teach them tricks. If people would only take pains to treat their own cats well, and dispose of every homeless, forlorn, uncared-for cat they see sulking about the alleys, the cat population as a whole would repay the troublf

VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.

VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.
 Another star show! was the unanl- nous verdict of the tremendously large audiences that were present at the Jacques yesterday afternoon; and the verdict was what it should be. It is star show in every sense of the word and one that makes most sat iSfactory successor to the fine one or last week. As a principal attraction is what may be classed as triple fea- rure: in other words, three acts pro- yided by the Seven Reed Birds. Mamie Remington and her i've pickaninnies, and the four musical Cuttys-the three acts recurring the services of seven teen people. enough to make up large. sized dramatic company The Reed Birds are all one family, the fam tIy of Dave Reed. who will be remem- bered as q minstrel star in the days or Dan Buckley, Bobby Newcomb, Dave WambOld and others who have since rung down their last curtain call; and it is q most interesting family. talent ed. clever and trained in the very latest school of vaudeville comedy. They introduce an exceedingly clever act. in which there isn't moment but is full Of excitement. fun and interest. Mamie Remington and her i've pickan- ninies have 8 more boiSterOuSly funny act. the dancing and cavOrting of the pickanninies being something to amuse an audience that likes the bustling fun of characteristic coon comedy. More refined, however than amusing Is the musical novelty introduced by the four Cuttys, two very pretty young ladies and their talented brothers. who play high class music on about every con- ceiYable style of instrument. It is an altogether remarkable exhibition of musical skill and one that is as divert ing as it is extraordinary. Other high ly attractive acts are introduced by Preston and Brooks, Fry and Fields. Hale and Francis. and Murphy and Willard. the whole making q show that Is worth q dozen times the prices charged. These are 10. 20 and 90 cents; matinees. 10 and % cents, all la- dies 10 cents. Tomorrow. however. New Years day. regular holiday prices will prevail for the matinee; that is to say. the regular night schedule, 10, % and 30 cents.

 PHILAD9LPHIA, Dec. 31.- The rain which fell almost necessarily Ter nearly two days resulted in danger ous freshet in the Schuylkill river, and the water of that stream is 1o12 feet above normal All of the big industrial plants along the Schuylkill at Mana yunk and Norristown, near here, are flooded, and work has been suspended.
 The county bridge at Port Kennedy, Pa. has been wrecked by the flood, and the tracks of the Philadelphia and Reading railway at Spring Mill, about eight miles from here, are submerged.
 Tn this city the river is out of It's banks near the Baltimore and ono railroad station, the water having pack ed out to Twenty fourth street, the nrst thoroughfare east of the station. Gel lars Of dwellings are flooded, and many residents along the river early ln the day sought safer quarters.
 Two new brick dwellings in kensing- ton, in the northwestern section or the city, collapsed early in the day, having been undermined by the heavy rain. The houses were not occupied.
 Many farms at Tacony, Wissinom1ng, Collegeville. Holmesburg and Torres dale. suburbs of this city, have been seriously damaged by the storm, and the cellars of the residences are flooded. Small creeks emptying into the Dela- ware river are out of their banks, and the 1atland between Frankford and Bridesburg is under several feet of wa ter.
 A Harrisburg dispatch says that the Susquehanna river is again rising, and there are indications of another flood if the rain continues to fall as heavily as it has during the last two days.
 Paxton and Conologuinot creeks and the Yellow Brooches creek below Har- risburg are bankful and rising. The in- dications are that similar conditions exist in the creeks above Harrisburg, Rs the heavy rainfall has been general throughout the state.
 A Pittsburg dispatch says that it is believed danger of flood at that point has been averted by drop in tempera- ture.

arHE NEW FArsTn

Lewis Morrison will undoubtedly re- ceiye q most cordial welcome when lie appears this evening at Poli's in his new and elaborate production of Faust" Star and play are well known. being indissolubly connected by many years of artistic success and profitable association. Lewis Morri- sons subtle impersonation of Satan has one vital point i'll that he seems at all times to be Satan, always at heart the mocking. exulting devil. in the grim comedy scenes or the subtle tem- tation of Faust. The most powerful dramatic scene is that of the new Brocken. where. amid fire and smoke and sulphur fumes, Satan stands high up among the rocks, with f1ftful flames playing about his person, waving his fiery sword as a sceptre of his power over the lost souls below, whose tor ture evokes only exultant laughter. You're mine. mine. body, soul and allr' seems to be the knowledge that affords him a sense of unholy joy to revel in, and Morrison does revel. His Satanic laughter, and weird mOckery are simulated in a manner that stamps him as an artist of the highest class. All the scenery used in the produc- IiOn this year is new and the electrical effects have been brought to a pitch of perfection which amaze the unin- itiated. Mephisto in the Inferno scene seems literally to emit fire from his fin ger tips. sword and ring. Prominent New York scenic artists have added to the weird effect by producing an inn a2inary hades which is far from pleas ant to contemplate. The whole produc- tion Is the finest and most costly sFaust'' has ever been invested with. Lewis Morrison himself as Mephisto and the most capable supporting cast he has ever had should make this pro- duction a wonderfully pleasing enter tainment Prices are 9, 8, %, 7l cents and $1.
