Right Arm Most Hurt.

Experience indicates that accidents
are far more likely to occur to the
right arm and leg than to the left.
Further evidence of this fact is sup
piled by the makers of artificial limbs;
they dispose of many more append
ages to the right side of the body than
to the other. Statistics show that in "a
passes ont of 100 the left leg is stronger
then the right.-Detroit Free Press.

pie. Boston. on Saturday mornings for the
past ten weeks, under the auspices of the
twentieth century Club. closed last Satur-
day with an appreciation of Emerson. Mrs.
Julia Ward Howe. T. w. Higginson, Frank
SanbOrn and Mr.. Charles MolIoy. all of
whom had known Emerson. were in the
audience. Every seat and every foot Of
standing room was taken, as has been the
case at nearly every lecture.
Nothing in the way of Interpretation of
human life has so attracted the people of
boston during recent years as the lectures
OF Mr.. Griggs, and the quality of the au-
ulence as well as its size. and the fact
that the auditors have paid for their in
structlon and inspiration, are facts to be
taken INTO consideration in any appraisal
OF the phenomenon. The financial result
for the Twentieth Century Club has been
such that action has kept pace with am
oition. and negotiations are now under
way for bringing Hon. James Bryce. NJ. p.
10 THIS country next year TO lecture before
the Boston public.
Mr.. Griggs's Interpretation of characters
SO diverse as st. Francis of Assist and
Marcus Aurelius. Martin Luther and Eras-
mus, Carlyle and Emerson. has impressed
all who have heard him with his insight
ana breadth OF sympathy, while his art as a
graphic. lucid expositor of his heroes main
theories of life has made him worthy of

their moral uplift and the personal mes
sage, nave been instructive, no doubt, to
the many clergymen-conservative and lib
eral-who have steadily attended his course.
The native inherent power of the man has
been revealed to many unimpressed by his
formal lectures by his resources when ques-
tloned after the lectures. For he has well
coined comment and query. No man could
sarely challenge such hearers in such a
way and come out as successfully as Mr.
Griggs has without merit Of his own, I'M
derived from books or other men and the
result OF personal experience. The formal
lectures have revealed a variety OF knowl-
edge so various as 10 tempt criticism be-
cause OF its variety. The conferences fol-
lowing the lectures have revealed prac-
teal wisdom which transcends knowledge.
Mr.. Griggs has studiously avoided dog
matism on Issues about which Boston in
lays past has waged bitter controversy,
and has held that there were reserves OF
opinion which he was not bound TO disclose
TO any questioner who might arise.

Of unusual merit and astonishing magni-
tude this season. Those who see the show
when it exhibits i'm Indianapolis Monday,
May u. will find scarcely a familiar fea-
ture in the exhibition. The great show has
been practically reconstructed. while the
performers in every department have been
completely changed. There are new acts.
new artists and new spectacular displays.
and every civilized land the world over
has been placed under tribute 10 secure
the latest and most novel arenic features.
The exhibition opens with the most gOr-
geous and unique display of hOrsemap-
ship ever seen In American. Perhaps the
most fitting way 10 describe this beautiful
act Is 10 call IL A military horse ballet. II
is given under the immediate direction of
John O'Brien, the greatest Of all great
horse trainers. A splendid triple-ring cir
Gus performance follows. Among the ar
lists are many who have never before been
seen in this country, but whose names and
achievements are known throughout the
world. In the list of famous acrObats are
the Nelson family Of ten ~unequaled artists;
the Roberts family. the Pettits. the Dibolian

Ethardo. The aerialists are led by the

trained bears. from Russia; Captain
Nebbs Juggling seals; Professor Woods

famous comedy elephants. Forty funny
clowns contribute a wealth of comedy to
the performance. The menageries presents
the only giraffe in captivity and hundreds
or other interesting and curious animals,
Including thirty elephants. The hippo

citing scenes of the old Roman amphithe-
alter on a scale of magnitude not surpassed
even in the days of Nero.

The Amphion Club. which has been hard at
work in the background this winter, will
have two numbers on the programme. Tick
cts may be purchased OF member Of the
club now, and seats may be reserved on
next Thursday morning at the box-ofice
OF English's.
Gerardy and Holman have played in
this city this season. Gerardy came early.

engagements in Boston and New York. He
gave a recital at the Propylaeum. Holman
and Lilli lehman were together in a re-
cital at English's. Kreisler never has
played in this city. but his reputation in
the East should be sufficient to
him to concert-goers. Gerardy and Hof-

no praise in this place.
Fritz Kreisler is an Austrian, and was
born in 1873. At the age of four he began TO
play the violin and at the age OF six he
played the Rode concerto in a concert in
