The Ericze Artistic.

Ideas for friezes that look we'll
above the plate rail or bric-a-brac shelf
are growing more and more bizarre Of
not less effective.
A row of old printes, framed in
black, above the dining room plate
rail, is an always pretty notion, but
not an inexpensive one. Posters look
we'll, but they have become too banal
for most tastes.
Japanese water-colors against back
ground of mating are very pleasing,
and if the knickknacks on the shelf
below are of oriental character the
scheme is apt to be particularly sue
cessful.
A line of blue, red and white and
blue china plates against frieze of
deep yellow paper gives a striking
note of novelty to recently furnished
dining room.
A room panelled two-thirds of the
way from floor to ceiling with very
dark oak has a frieZe of lettuce-green
paper and dark blue plates and pot
terry, and bits of old brass and copper
are placed on the shelf and on the wall
above it.-New York Commercial Ai-

MRS. DANES DEFENSE,

"Mrs. Danes Defence" the play
which will be presented for the first
time in this city at the Opera House
on Monday evening ran all last season
at the Empire Theatre, New York. 1t
created "A sensation when originally
produced at Charles Wyndham S new
theatre in London and ran there for
III entire season. 1t duplicated this
triumph when presented by the En-
pire Theatre company at the Empire
Theatre, New York, approved to be
the biggest financial success the COM
pany has ever had. The play is in
Tour acts and the action takes place
in Sunningwater,an exclusive country
community about twenty five miles
from London. 1t tells love story of
btrong human interest which Is de-
,Seloped in most original way in pow.
erful situations and in the most felic-
l0us dialogue. Mrs. Dane is q young
woman who has erred. She is recog-
ntzed In the exclusive community IN
which she has gone to live. The
story deals with her efforts to keep
the past concealed, battling heroical-
1y against the powerful elements
Which seem to combine to destroy her
happiness by uplifting the veil from
The past. Her scene with the lawyer
Pir Daniel Carteret, in the third act
pr the play is said to be one of the
most powerful and absorbingly inter-
esting Of any known In the modern
English drama.

men now under sentence robbed

AN EVENTFUL PERIOD

Mrs. lie Moyne comes TO Grand
Opera Housc.son Tuesday February
llth. in the First Duchess Of Marl-
borough.
The struggle Tor supremacy at the
Court of Queen Anne between the
Duchess of Marlborough and Abigail
Hill, for whom the influences of the
Duchess first secured place at Court
in large part supplies the argument
for the Charles Henry Metzcr play
"The First Duchess of Marlborough
Or course the strong opposition to the
Duke was at the bottom Of it all, an
opposition that soughtdisoycr-throw,
and al time when had won the
name and fame Of being the greatest
soldier in Europe, and upon whose
sword English supremacy just then So
largely depended.
1t was Il bold opposition and a
powerful! one, as it mist HecdS have
been to have ayailed not OILY against
the Dukes Military fame, but also
against the influence at Court of so
irresistible a champion as thc Duchess
herself whom Queen and courticrs
alike feared even more than they fear
cd the Duke himself
The character of Sara Jennings was
a remarkable one, and nothing more
interesting appears in English his
tory than the career Of this eXtlordi-
nary woman. The episode with which
the drainatist deals is the most I'M
portant iu a career that abounds in
vital incident, inasmuch as it concerns
events just preceding, during, and
subsequent to her historic quarrel
with the Queen, whom she had for
years ruled even more completely
than had Queen Anne ruled her king
dom. In the play the jmperous
Duchess is shown at bay, and the op-
portuuiLies with which the dramalsit
has supplied the marvellous art Of
Mrs. LeMoyne in the portrayal Of the
Duchess character, must appeal to
her admirers with a force that will be
recognized. Those familiar with the
play feel confident that the coming
season viii add much to the great
artistc's fame.

Business has been at II standstill in
many towns. In addition to stocks OF
goods being ruined the streets and
highways are blocked by broken tcle-
graph and telephone poles. twisted
wires. the trunks and limbs Of trees
and other debris.
The damage to stocks OF goods is due
to the tremendous weight Of acrumu.
lated Ice and sleat and to the INSULT
cheney of roofs 10 sustain such loads.
Inhabitants Of the smaller towns have
been seriously DISCONNECTED by the in
terruption of wire service by telephone
and telegraph. In the country the losses
have been heavy. Stock has suffered,
and IN some sections the wheat crop is
reported to be ruined.
Such siege of sleet and cold rain
is altogether unprecedented In some
places the ground has been covered
with Ice to depth of six inches.
In central and western Tennessee the
damage to houses and stocks Of goods
has been enormous. Reports from
Paris, Dresden, Mckenzie, Jackson,
Huntington and Union City state that
the storm Of sleet and rain has been
unprecedented in those sections. Mis-
sissippi has suffered severely, the peo-
pie being wholly unprepared to pro-

In Arkansas the storm played fearful
havoc to houses and other property.
