Minnie DuDree's Starring Venture.

Miss Minnie Dupree. in her FIRST ven
ture as star, will enact the role of a
young French girl in "A Rose G. Ply
mouthtown.'
The play was written especially
for Miss Dupree by Beulah Marie Dix
and Evelyn Greenleaf Sutherland. and
is said to suit her talents most con-
yincingly.
Rose de la Noye. the heroine Of this
Puritan play, is the character Miss
Dupree will portray. Unlike most other
girls Of that period. she is chic, brave
and lovable. The play is said to be
fun of delightful characters and is also
brimful of incident, and although in the
main ii is historically correct, neither
artistic, scenic nor dramatic effects have
been sacrificed by the talented authors
4 strong company of players will pre-
sent "A Rose o Plymouthtown" at the

The men, who were dressed up like
country parsons, justices and farmers,

pipes with long stems, and had sprin-
king of hayseed over them. s19nT hsgn
A rural orchestra thumped on worn

Miss Elsie Macomber. who has been
chosen by Governor Cummins, OF Iowa,
to christen the cruiser Des Moines. at
Quincy. Mass, September 90 possesses
all those qualities demanded by custom
of the young lady selected to stand at
tn bow of the ship, break the bottle OF
wine and permit its sparkling drops to
trickle >ver the sides of the craft as the
words Il christen thee" are spoken. A
leader in society of the capital city OF
Iowa the city about to be honored by
The Navy Department. a young lady who
has Travelled extensively and is popular
wherever she goes-that is Miss Ma
comber.
Miss Macomber is the daughter of
Judge J. X. Macomber, prominent poIiti-
cally in Iowa, being known as a Cum
minis man.
A year ago when the governor of low.
was Leslie VI. Shaw, the present Secre-
tary of the Treasury, the date was fixed
by the Navy Department for the chris
tening, and Governor Shaw named Miss
Frances West. of Des Moines. the
daughter of one of his warmest political
friends.
The postponement of the christening
carried the date beyond Governor Shaws
term OF office, and the privilege of nam
ing the young lady to take so prominent
a part in the ceremony was one OF the
honors TO which Governor Cummns fell
heir when he was inducted into office.
and very naturally he chose for the
honor a belle from his side Of the politi-
cal house
Howbeit. Miss Macomber and Miss
The Washington times., 1902-08-31

West are close friends. and Miss West
will attend the ceremony at Quincy as
the guest of Miss Macomber. Had Miss
West officiated at Quincy, according to
the original program, guest ot honor
would have been Miss Macomber, that
is, if she had been in this country at
the time
a party of eight American young w6m-
en-. under the chaperonage of Mrs. ]. X.
Macomber, OF Des Moines. were touring
Europe when the original date was fixed
for the christening. The acknowledged
leader OF the party was Miss Macomber.
In Paris the party became known as the
eight American young ladies' There
were many other tourists in France at
the time. but only one party so distin-
guished. 1t was the casting aside of the
strict conventionalities of French So
ciety that attracted attention to the
party. They were touring the country
with a view of seeing" and the thea
ters were invaded, promenades explored.
and the drives travelled without male es-
cort. In fact. American ways were in
troduced in Paris, and they created a
distinct sensation.
Miss Macomber is a typical American
girl. She~is a little above medium
height, and carries herself with that dis
tinctiye air of self-poise peculiar to
women OF the West. Her eyes and hair
are dark. and she has a clear complexion
and attractive features. Her exquisite
taste in dress IS apparent at all times.
and she never fails to attract attention
by the completeness and correct choice
of her gowns.

a vaudeville entertainment for chari
table purpose was given at the Harbor
which introduced Garden of Living
Flowers. arranged by Miss Berry. and
in which she impersonated primrose.
The affair attracted a crowd of fashion
ables and handsome sum was the re-
