ENTERTAINMENTS.
Hyperion Fhsater.

GRACE GEORGE AT HYPERION.
Few feminine stars are more well
come in the cities they visit than is
Grace George. the clever young woman
to be seen next Friday and Saturday,
January and 3, at the Hyperion, and
at the popular matinee Saturday, in her
newest play, Pretty Peggy" Miss
George, Winsomely girlish in appear
ance and manner, so strongly proved
her right to the position at the head
of her company in Under Southern
Skies that unusual interest now at
taches to any production which she
sponsors. Pretty Peggy is from the
pen of Frances Aymar Matthews,
known as a writer of novels and mag
azine stories, and it treats of the early
life of Peg Wellington, the brilliant
actress of the time of George IL, who
at the age of nineteen had become the
rage of old London town.
No heroine of history or fiction has
been more maligned than Mistress
Wellington, who figured in a more or
less unpleasant way in Charles Reade's
story of her name and was afterward
successfully dramatized in Masks and
Faces The play treated her more ten
derby, but unfortunately its presenta-
ton generally was entrusted to buxom
and middle-aged women. Miss Mat
thews shows Peggy at the period of
i.her debut in Dublin-shortly before
Horace Walpole described her as IAN
impudent-faced Irish girl" and Miss
George, to whom last spring fell the
task of rejuvenilizing Gilberte in "F'rou
Frou," makes her de1ineation consistly
youthful. The love which existed be-
tween Peg and David Garrick is made
to form the warp and wool of the
piece, and the authoress reveals de-
cisively the fact that the dramatists
have been rather overland in their
treatment of the little big man of
Drury Lane"
In personality and individuality Miss
George is eminently fitted to personate
the ''impudent-faced Irish girl" OF
Irish extraction herself, Miss George
has the vivacity, the righteousness and
the magnetic charm to make of Peggy
a Wonderous creation. The supporting
is. headed by two celebrated players
Francis Carlisle. who will be seen as
David Garrick and Annie Ward Tiff
fanny, who will be seen as the mother
of Peggy. Miss Tiffany has starred
successfully, and recently played the
leading character roles with Mrs. Fiske.
The remainder of Miss Georges organ
iZation is said to be almost equally
good. The four settings shown are pro-
nounced very elaborate, being charged
with the atmosphere of old London and
of the literary and theatrical celebrities
represented. Altogether the entertain
ment promises exceedingly well and
there is little doubt that it will draw
large audience. eats go on sale We'd

POLICE SCARED BURGLARS,

Captain Cowles is of the opinion that
the same gang of burglars who had in
tested this city recently are now oper-
ating in Springfield and Worcester.
During the epidemic in this city near
ly all Of the day men were put on
nights, and the Eighth ward, where
most of the burglaries were committed,
was literally flooded with policemen in
citizens clothes 1t is therefore, sup
posed that although the burglars were
not caught, that they had been fright
ened away.

Those Ambiguous Resolutions

Nearly every paper in the State has
taken a shot at the resolutions passed
by the Allen county Republican con-
vention. Most ,of the boys simply in
quire what the meaning is, and the
Lawrence Journal has finally asked
the question flat-footed. 1t says:
The Journal has had occasion to
mention several times the somewhat
remarkable plank in the platform OF
the Allen county Republicans, adopted
the other day when they elected del
egates to the state convention and to
the congressional convention. Here
is the resolution, and a prize of q
nomination for some Office goes to the
one who first guesses what it means
"Resolved that we view with dis
favor the formation of any politica
syndicates, organized for the puposC
of bringing about the defeat of any
honorable man for office, withou
a we'll defined and publicly declared
effort for somelman equally as good
and as honorable ~ Some say the
resolutions were aimed at the .Bailey
followers, while others are sure it wa'
meant for the opponents of Bailey
still others declare it was meant foi
the enemies of Congressman Bower

down" had nobody to: offer in hi

forms, as demanded by the various
classes of consumers.
After detailed description OF the
methods of manufacturing it's princi-
pal ingredients, the manufacture OF
oleomargarine itself may be described
briefly. In those independent plants
where both oleo oil and neutral lard
are purchasedsforiuse, melting tanks
are provided for each, in which they
are melted separately, after being
taken from the ltierces In which they
are shipped. They are then piped or
pumped tola.mixing tank mounted on
weighing scales, where the exact pro-
portions demanded by the working
formula are ascertained. If cotton
seed oil is required by the formula,
a separate tankIfor 1t is usually pro-
vided. If butter is to be used instead
of milk or cream, q separate melting
tank Is also provided for that. After
the oils are melted and weighed into
the mixing tank together, the mixture
is piped or pumped into the churn,
where it receives the milk and coloring
matter. The whole mass is then churned
together. In the packing houses
liquid oleo oil and neUtral lard are
piped from the oil room direct to the
weighing tank. After churning, the
liquid oleomargarine is allowed to flow
into a vat of ice water, whichchills and
hardens it before crystallization car
take place. 1t is next shoveled into
mouHted cars and wheeled to the
"tempering ROOM" where it stands
for several hours, until sufficiently
softened for the machine butter work
ers. After the salt has been worked
through it, it is put up in the differen
forms and is stored in refrigerators tC
