s4Competftion in New York is down to
a pretty fine point, remarked a man
from the far West who had registered
at one of the big New York hotels, but
where it impressed me most was not in
legitimate business, Hbut in the touches
made by beggars or 'grafters, especially
along Park Row, where T suppose their
trade Is keenest.
..The first experience T had in this line
was the other evening wheHiI was stand
ing at the entrance to the bridge, little
undecided what line to ta4fe, uptown. First
came tired looking mar, who had four
cents but wanted to goffo lOne Hundred
and Twenty-ffth street. IoYhat seemed a
cent, so I gave it to HIM. Perhaps he
passed the word to his Fellows in alleged
misfortune; perhaps they recognized In
me an out-of-town .typeqbut in the next
four or five minutes overt al dozen of the
profession had put forward their pleas.
None wanted over cents, and all wanted
these not very startling sums for some
most laudable purpose. sThef first two or
three got what they asked for. Then all
of a sudden I realized that I had struck

that it had struck me9s So promptly
made up my mind what line i wanted to
take, and hurried from hat5yicinity.
But it was all quite different from my

the San Francisco beggars ought to spend
a couple of weeks in New York. Then

A Handkerchief Shower.

A handkerchief shower is an attrac-
tive way of entertaining for the fall bride
and her bridal party. The name means
just what it says. for the guests are ex-
pected literally to Shower handker-
chiefs upon the bride. The dainty bits
of lace and cambria ought to be entirely
of hand make. thereby enriching their
sentimental value. The array one recent
bride received embraced every sort and
description of handkerchiefs, from the
finest rose point bordered one to be used
on her wedding day to humble "bandan-
as to serve as dust clothes in the rev
home. Quaint and original gifts were
evolved from "mere handkerchief
with astonishinglY pretty results. For in
stance, dainty blue bordered cambria
mouchoir was converted into the prettiest
of ties. the blue border serving for ends
and for the turnover, while a bit of fine
lawn made the tie proper.
An Oriental looking sofa pillow took
shape from four bandanas of blue and
white design, ruff1e and all. A dainty
mouchoir case was one of the prettiest
gifts, made as it was from the daintiest
white linen handkerchiefs embroidered in
forget-me-no wreathed into the brides
initials interlined with delicate sachet,
and finished with an inside lining of
white linen.

AT THE GRAND.
HeThe Fatal Weddina. COMING.

For those who are fond of a drama
that appeals directly to the heart, and
though pathetic in its general tenor, is
withal clean comedy drama, "The
Fatal Wedding" which comes to the
Grand opera house following the en-
gagement of "Mr. Jolly of Joliet"
should prove of more than ordinary
interest. The scenes of the play are
laid in New York and the various in
cidents 1t contains are all based upon
life in the great metropolis. From the
rise of the curtain till the final fall,
the interest of the auditor never flags,
and as pathetic scenes and startling
climaxes pass in, rapid succession, here
and there is interspersed comedy of no
mean order which materially lightens
the heavier parts. The production is
promised to be on a scale of unusual
magnitude, the company is large and
capable one and the scenic effects are
especially realistic and complete The
Grace church scene in this play is one
of the most magnificent effects ever
presented in melodrama. The interior
of choir loft is represented in the set
ting. The church is dinly lighted by
stained glass windows. The light eff
fects are beautiful and the whole of
fering of unusual grandeur. The choir
of trained voices sing only sacred mu-
sic to the accompaniment of a magnifi-
cent pipe organ, as large as is used in
most churches. The procession is led
by. the wonderful boy soprano, Master
Robert Duff, who takes up the solos.
supported by the full chorus .'The
Fatal Wedding promises to afford one
of the treats of the season in the line
of comedy drama.
Among the early December bookings
at the Grand opera house is included
Happy Hooligan," reputedly one of
the most clever farce comedies now
before the public. The play is intend
ed to show the farcical side of life
in the great metropolis, and it is said
to attain its purpose in a delightful
manner. Many musical numbers are
introduced during the action of the
piece and the company is a large one,
including chorus of pretty and shape
ly young ladies.
George Sydney and his splendid COM
pany of forty people in his big musical
comedy success, BUSY Ivy" is the
very attractive offering announced for
Christmas week at the Grand opera
house. Mr.. Sydney has long been rec
ognized as one of the cleverest Jewish
impersonators in the country, and in
former seasons, with Ward & Vokes,
he has shared the stellar honors of
their performance. Busy Ivy was
written especially for Mr.. Sydney, and
it has been a "go" from the first per-
formance Messrs. Stair and Nicolai
have surrounded Mr.. Sydney with a
company of exceptional merit including
a beauty chorus of thirty young ladies.
The musical numbers are said to be
all new and embrace number of very
catchy airs. The staging and costom-
ing, it is promised, will be elaborate
to a degree, and the light effects, ETC.,

This was the serious question put to
a Lisbon street jeweler and optician
one day recently, as he loafed few
moments behind the counter at the end
of a hard days work.
That's where gouE areejust as pref
udiced or ignorant ras. all the rest of
the people. ."pwas the retort ."The OPP
tician does keep a very fair assort-
ment'
But what is the difference between
terruption. you're much handler than
the dictionary, just now"
why, the oculiSt is the doctor, the
man who is supposed to be fitted to
treat the diseased eye; while the OPP
tician is able only to fit glasses for eye
sight that is abnormal The oculist can
do the latter, of course, but the op-
tician can fit eyes just as well as the
other, where there is no disease.
.'Now you ask the absurd question
why we don't carry a full line of lenses
just as much as the shoe dealer keeps
a full line of sizes. I saynyou're ignor-
ant to say that, for the -optician has a
very fair stock. To make this plain I
want to tell you the kinds of abnormal
sight we have to treat. q m here is simple
short ST ightedness; simple far sighted
ness; there are single qS4gmat1c cases
of each and mixed astigmatism and
compound astigmatic cases of both far
and near sight. We canefit at once the
first four, near and far sight and sim
pie astigrnatism in each of these. But
when it comes to compound aStign1attc
cases the lenses have to be ground for
each case and it is a matter of lesser
expense to send away and have an ex-
pert grinder do this thaMefor US to do
it ourselves.
"Now, I've tried to put this in SO
plain English TO you that it doesn't
sound very scientific. But I shall be
glad if you can make the people un-
| derstand that the oculist or optician of
today is doing his best for the public,
and that frauds cannot be practiced
without danger of detection. Men of
this class, if they ever did overcharge,
cannot safely do it today.
For instance, if4you had your eyes
fitted by an oculist and he said you
needed a specially ground lens when
you did not, he would run too much
chance of detection by us opticians.
For if you brought IN the glasses, or we
examined your eyes, we could tell at
once if he told you the truth. There
was a time, years ago, when the ocu-
lists had the field to themselves and
high prices reigned. Now things are
different and the public today owes
considerable to the graduate optician.'
