PLAYS AND PLAYERS

Pretty little Katharine Rober will
open a weeks engagement at the Opera
House next Monday night
The long, eharp-pointed duel sword
which Kyrle Bellew, who comes to the
Opera House on Saturday night, uses
with such sanguinary effect in the
great staircase combat in "A Gentle
man of France" is the real thing. This
sword was originally the property Of a
HugCnot officer, by The name of Ga
brielle de Lorme, by whom it was
handed down through succeeding gen.
erations as a family heirloom. One Of
the latter-day de Lormes presented it
to some actor friend of the Comedie
FTancais This was about fifty years
ago. Up to fifteen years ago it quietly
ropcsed in the armOrer's room of the
house of Moliere One day, the late
Charles Coghlan was prying about the
interesting old rooms of the famous
theatre with Monsieur Got, the dis
tinguished Paris fayorite, and when
the English actor examined this sword
with groat admiration and envy ILL
concealed, Monsieur Got (pcrhaps with
lioense) jerked it from its restraining
peg. and presented it to COgnlan. Some
time afterward Coshlan gave it to
Kyrle Bellcw to add to his valuable
collection OF swords Of which trophies
Bellew is the most ardent collector on
the stage.

Belts of Liberty Satin

Belts of liberty satin, whether
made OF ribbon or Of the satin on
the bias, are brought we'll down in
front and fastened with a handsome
buckle-gold, silver, steel or rhine
stones, but at the back, If the belt is
worn with a coat, the ornaments are of
passementerie, cord or braid to match
the rest Of the trimming, rather a curl
GUS fad, but still a more becoming one
because the liberty satin is so pliaDle
and takes up so little room, for it can
be pulled tight enough to make the
waist look smaller, and after all there
does seem to be a very strong influence
at work to bring back into fashion the
small, round waist.

The Apron Again to the Fore

As another sign of a revTsionl on
the part Of girls to femininity there is
prophesied the return of the apron,
long hanished tO1maids' wardrobes and
to below stairs regions. Now it is
coming to the fore by degrees, and by
the time all indoor things are in full
swing it will be a recognized part OF
every womans uniform. OF course, it
will be an ornate affair, made Of ma
terials expensive and dressy and with
everything possible done to relieve it
of its utilitarian aspect, though it Will
have strings-no apron is complete
without having strings for the tying up
of various persons that like to be held

Bad Outlook for Turkeys

Wilmington housewives aye worry
ing about the predicted turkey famine.
The news comes that the birds are
thin and lean and very, ve-y scarce OF
course there are other meats and fowl,
but they say that Thanksgiving with

Il is said that The warm weather CT
the fall has caused the turkeys to re-
fuse to thrive and fatten While it was
fine for those who had a scarcity of
coal, it meant death to the Thanksgiy-
ing bird.
