is greatly in evidence these pre-Lenten days. Almost every day finds con- genial little party of women enjoying the ever-fascinating game of euchre. The popular idea seems to be to entertain not less than nine nor more than eighteen guests. this number calling for either one table for nine-handed euchre or three tables where six-handed euchre is played. Attractive prizes are offered and the de- licious luncheon that follows the games is frequently as elaborate as those served at the larger card parties, where there are frequently a hundred and fifty guests. These large card parties have been among the handsomest events of the winter, and have certainly been among the gayest, and they will remain as the one delightful way of entertaining a large number of guests. for at a card party the guests entertain themselves.
 But for the woman who prefers to en- certain few friends informally, the small card party is being made the occa- sion for many charming gatherings these late winter days.

Innes and His Band.

Birmingham will have occasion to- morrow, to pass a special vote of thanks to Manager R. S. Douglas of the Jeffer- son theatre, for the greatest musical treat this city can imagine. For this afternoon and tonight, he has announced as his great attraction, Innes and his band with the full corps of grand opera singers, and the anvil chorus, just as they appeared at the Buffalo, and later at the Charleston expositions. direct from which latter they come. Innes is travelling in his own train, with his priv ate car attached, and this will be open for inspection while here. The train will have arrived by this time, and will De here all day and night. Innes has met in his Southern tour, with the most lav- ish praise imaginable from public and press alike. He has had columns of ex- celient notices, which contain such ex- pressions as: Novel instrumentation makes 1t especially pleasing Singers superb in voice and action," "his direc- tion Is wonderful and sym pathetic" 'it attempts music never before heard on a band" and the like. The seat sale has been fine. and great houses are assured here, as they have been everywhere the band has been

Ethel Barrymore,

Charles Frohman will present Clyde Fitch's best comedy, Captain links of the Horse Marines" with Ethel Barry more in the leading part at the Jeffer- son Theatre Tuesday evening, January 2S. The play and Miss Barrymore enjoyed the longest run of last season In New York-200 nights at the Garrick Theatre. Mir. Frohman had long felt that Miss Barrymore was worthy of being given an opportunity to show her real worth as an actress. and he selected the Fitch comedy as a suitable vehicle for the first assertion of the young lady's rights to claim distinction as an interpreter of inn portant roles. Miss Barrymore is the daughter of Maurice Barrymore and Georgfe Drew Barrymore. She is also the niece of John Drew. She comes of distinguished theatrical family and is not without stage honors herself, for she has done excellent work in plays both here and in London. Her success in Captain Jinks' was immediate and remarkable. The play is a delicious comedy, telling a love story of old New York, with young American prima donna as the principal figure.

Vests Minstrels.

William H. Vests Minstrels played to a large audience last night at the Jeffer- son. The performance as whole was good. Billy vann in his original mono logue was exceptionally good and con- vulsed the audience with his humor. The trio of scientific and freak bicycle riders were very clever, as was Down by the Railroad Crossing by McMa.hon and King. The Rio Brothers in their aero batic feats were remarkable. All in all it is one of the best entertainments in the minstrel line that has come this way this season.
