Arthur Byron who has been playing
opposite roles TO John Drew for the
last eisGt YclIs, will make biz first SD-
pearance here as a star at the Opera
House, on Thursday evening, October
3rd. in Wag5nh2ls and Kemper's scenic
pf 5duCtiJE Of "PetticOats and Eavd-
nets" the most successful of all the
new plays presented thus far in Amer
lea this season.
''Pcttlcoats and Bayonets" is a play
which appeals with great force TO the
same cultured audience to which Mr.
Byron was accustomed while with Mr.
Drew. Tie play tells the ave stotv of
man who is fighting with all the en-
thusiasm of his imDuls.ye nature for
the two greSlteSt human causes. on the
one hand patriotism for ones country.
and on the other the patriotism of
the heart, the love of woman. The
story Of the play becomes dramatic
through the conflict between these two
c2u5es. The author, Mr.. Asa Steels.
he's a keen sense Of humor and has
embellished his subject with the most
delightful comedy. He has placed his
characters in the most vital period of
American history. and put words into
their mouths, which should not only
arouse the patriotic emotions Of the
auditor but appeal to his sentiments
and affections also.
The enterprise is under the manage
ment of Wagenhals & Kenper who
are also exploiting Madame Modjeska
/ and Louis James. The elaborate pro-
/ ductien of this firm in the classic
drama has given them a standing sec
ord to none. They have followed the
some generous policy in staging Petit
coats and Eayonets.'

rare and expensive enough to be much de-

It came upon him suddenly one tar-biack

THE SHIRT WAIST TOPIC
ENGLISH SEVERITY HAS PUSHED
OUT FRENCH FLUFFINEss.
The Butcher and the Porter Set the
style In Linen-The Dickey
Especially Smart.

The automobile shirt waist Is the latest
thing in fashiondom and though the gar
ment may on occasions run to all sorts
OF gloriffcation in the way of lace yokes,
diaphanous textiles and ribbon accessories,
1t is in the main an astonishing simple
creation.
1t Is said that in gay Paris, where the
automobile received its baptism, so to speak,
and the dressy shirt waist first blossomed
into being, the fair ones are turning with
delightful zeal to the English seventies they
at first despised.
Certain heavy lines, in coarse, irregular
weaves, the very same, indeed, that supply
the butchers aprons and French porters'
smocks, are cut in severe shirt waist
models A stock and belt Of white pique
supply the only ornamentation for a blue,
red or brown linen shirt. The narrow, fold
ed, or crushed bias tie is made of the COL
ored linen, and sometimes dashing effect
Is created through the addition of scarf
bias or the shirt waist texture to the trim
sailor hat. In this case the coarse stuff
is made to fold fatty and trinity about the
crown and brim, but II the waist IS fash
Toned of some airy textile. Swiss. null or
French muslin, the hat scarf may tie veil
wise over the brim and float its ends merriIy
in the breeze.
Narrow Belts for Little Waists.
Two automobile shirt waists here shown
are respectively Of scarlet dotted Swiss and
blue and white striped percale. A pleasing
yoke variation is shown in the Swiss gar
ment. where the plain white yoke of fine
tucks IS stitched heavily with red thread.
The most popular shirt waist sleeve Of the
season is pictured with both, as well as the
very narrow leather belts, which, coming
in colors to match the new textures, are
now worn with all simple cotton shirt
waists.
With a black patent leather belt the
metal work will present a stylishly black
surface, but some of soft dressed and 9TH
ers of undressed kid, in delicate colors, be-
dazzle you with silver and gold slides and
buckles. the belt itself narrowing from back
to front till the buckle tongue seems a
mere nothing. Other leather belts will be
in a straight band less than an inch in
width These seem uncommonly chic, max
ing the waist appear of an enchanting little
ness. OF course, the skirt band with this
sort IS a serious problem. for If 1t is a
breath too wide it will be forever showing
above. and nothing can prevent a melan-
choly sagging below the girdle. but by her
belts is the girl of the season known.

Mccartney went on the fast mail run. He
had objected. as most of the men did, for
the run was hard one. But the objection
was only on general principles. and at
heart he was twice glad. For the mail run
gave him a clear twenty-four-hour lay

willing, but Phemie had a way of changing
thu subject on him at the critical moment.
and for this Mccartney feared, in the jeal-
GUS corner of his heart, that Barton Logan
was responsible.

The favorite shirt waist, however is pure
white. and the lawns and Swisses that flood
the market all run to lace and needlework
treatments, enchanting to behold. The
prices charged are not such as to bring
happiness to the heart of woman, but any
girl who has been brought up properly can
easily initiate the expensive luxury at home.
The newest shirt waists seem to be made
more skimpily than ever, and most of them
run to yokeless backs and slight. very
slight, pouching of the front. Many turn
over collars in daintiest lace-trimmed white
are seen on them, and for heavy materials
there are some buckled stocks in black vel
vet that look very natty.
