A MAGNIFICENT DISPLAY.
The Spring Opening of Lnnsburch Il
Bro. Delights Shoppers

The throngs of shoppers at the store of
Lansburgh K Bro, in Seventh Street.
yesterday testified to the success of their
annual spring opening One of the most
complete stocks of fine dry goods ever
displayed in Washington was for the first
time laid open TO inspection. The intro
ductiOn of these high class goods to the
Washington public was in every respect
a successful one. From early in the
morning until the hour the doors of the
big establishment closed busy shoppers
thronged the aisles
The management had spent weeks in
preparation for the opening The buyers
have, during the past year. searched all
the great markets for the best and most
tasteful conceptions in dress goods. silks.
and other accessories of feminine ward
robes. The advent of spring brings forth
at this popular store an exhibit of dress
goods and dry goods the equal of which
has been seldom seen. The selections
which make up the complete stock are of
delicate design and novel and up-to-date
pattern. The best products of foreign
and domestic looms are displayed in pro-
fusion.
Lansburgh & Bros store is distinctly
dry goods store. and thus the entire
attention of the management is directed
TO that line of business. The tendency
sometimes evidenced in department stores
to subordinate one department to anoth-
er is there done away with and all
thought and effort is concentrated to pro-
vide the best possible in the single de-
partment. Lansburgh & Bro. have been
highly successful in that policy, as the
high quality of their goods and the uni
versal satisfaction they give attest
For their rapidly growing business
Lansburgh q Bro. have purchased the
building in the rear of their establish
ment and which was formerly occupied
by keleher's stables on Eighth Street.
This will be greatly improved and con
nected with the present store. The annex
thus provided will be devoted to dry
goods entirely Plans for the addition
are now being drawn up by the architects
and work on the improvement Will begin
shortly. The annex will be opened in the

The observation-disclosures Brend.v


Local theatregoers last night at the Co
lumbia Theatre saw the latest specimen
Of the drsmatized novel. 'Unleavened
Bread" which Leo Ditrichstein has made
over for the stage with no little success.
He has transplanted most of the char
acters of Judge Grants book, and while
there is yet a great deal to be desired,
as a play the work as displayed before
the large gathering of last night proved
to be of exceptional interest. lacking only
in what is commonly termed action but
making. up for this deficiency-if def
cheney it really is in this case-by some
very smart dialogue and a number Of
clear-cut splendidly defined characterize
lions which are most capably handled by
a company of exceptionally good players.
Indeed one of the main points of strength
about the performance lies in the excel

to an early and undoubtedly welcome
death. In the last act she is showed as

tician, who promises to be a most suitable

During the first two acts the piece is 4
light comedy, with Il number Of flashes Of
brilliant writing. Commencing with the
third act the interest becomes vastly more
serious and the climax of the act in
which the selfish Selma and the frivolous
Flossie Williams have war of words. Is
the distinctly successful scene in the play.

The Observation-Disclosures

In selecting plays for production by
the Lafayette stock company it is Il mat
ter worthy of commentator that in but
few instances the offerings have been ones
which are comparatively new here. A
dramatic version of Ouidas popular
story, Moths" is the latest Offering,
and will be presented at the Lafayette
Theatre during the current week, and
those who have read the boOk-which
means almost the entire reading public
will be given a chance of seeing how
the well-known characters look outside
the leaves of the novel
Last night the stock company was
greeted by the customary capacity au-
dience, and both play and players came
in for unstinted applause. The story
being one of European high life, it has
afforded Ouda unlimited opportunities In
the way of character delineations and
variety of treatment and there is prob
ably no sphere so productive of both
that of so-called society. This prolific
writer has drawn bold picture-bold in
the light of its froth. its insincerity, and
its utter disregard of the fundamental
principles of morality. But in its trans
initial to the stage it has been served up
in more palatable form. and the result
is altogether pleasing one.
Eugene Ormonde Is seen in the role of
Correze. the singer. The part is a mega
attractiveness. Mr.. Ormonde plays with
fine intelligence and gives sincere, sym
pathetic, and completely satisfying por-
trayal. John T. Sullivan is cast for
Zouroff, the Russian prince. To those
who know the character and are familiar
with Mr.. Sullivans work ii is easy to
understand his success In the part. He
is the polished. unprincipled. and thor
oughly rascally villain to the life, and
succeeds in winning both favor and aver
sion. Charles Wyngate fits the role of
Lord Jura to nicely. and John DAILY
Murphy is capital Duke of Null.
Miss Percy Haswell plays Vera. AS
Ouida has drawn the character it is rath-
er insipid, with not much more than inno-
cence to recommend her to approval. but
Miss Haswell adds materially to 1t by
bringing to the role righteousness,
strength. and a firmness Of purpose which
serve to lift ii from mere mediocrity.
The part of Lady Dolly is cleverly han

excels in characters Of this kind and her
