Work on the construction of the horse
show arena and the structure for 5000 seats
at Senate avenue and Sixteenth street will
be begun this morning The contract for
this work has been let to Brandt Brothers,
of this city. The big tent for the horse

brand new from the factory, and will be put
up the latter part of the week by Austin, the
Kansas City horse show tent man. The gen.

George W. Bliss, president of the Horse
Show Association, said yesterday that there
are already enough local horses entered to
assure successful showing in every local
class II is expected that large number of
Indianapolis and Indiana horses will be en-
tered before the end of the week. The entry
books will be closed next Monday evening.
No entrance fees are charged in the local
classes this year.
indianapolis and Indiana people should
remember that the grading this year will
be on horses more than on equipments and
appointments, said Mr.. Bliss. Perhaps
only 25 per cent. will be on appointments.
This permits every owner OF good horse
to have a show for place. Indianapolis
people should also bear In mind that this
horse show is given by people i'm Indian
apolis that are trying to keep alive the
movement for a coliseum and that IL ii is
successful we will have permanent horse
show and coliseum in which TO give IL in
future years.
There are many reasons why all Indi-
annapolis people who have good horses
should enter into the spirit of the move
ment and try to make every local entry
class a success. AS for the open classes
there will be more than enough foreign
entries to fill them We will have some of
hibits. as rule. will be more pleasing than
last year..

Philadelphia Record.
The waitress in the lunch cafe where ia
bles are specially reserved for ladies"
sighed YEARLY as she filled the pickle jars
on the tables set apart for the fair ones.
That's three times I've filled 'em UP to-
day." she remarked to the regular customer,
who had been watching her movements.
II wonder why women eat more pickles
than men2" The regular customer sug-
gested that pickles might be easier to digest
than men, but the witticism was lost on the
waitress. Its a fact" she confided, that
women eat three times many pickles as
men. Those tables over there that are re-
served for ladies have the same sort Of
pickle jars as this your table, but we
have to fill them up five or six times a day,
whereas the jars on the tables occupied by
men are filled once in the morning, and
they last all day. Women must be fonder
of pickles than men are" Pickles don't
cost them anything" suggested the regular
customer. But the waitress wouldn't have
1t that way.

MADE A PRONOUNCED HIT
CHRISTIAN FREDERICK MARTENS
MAKES FIRST APPEARANCE.
New Vocal Director of Indianapolis
Conservatory of Music at the
German House.

Christian Frederick Martens, a newcomer
in the local world Of music, made his in
itial bow before an Indianapolis audience
last night under the most favorable cir
cumstances. Mr.. Martens. who has been
engaged as the new vocal director of the
Indianapolis Conservatory of Music, was
heard in a song recital at the German
House, and not only was every seat in the
music room taken, but hundred or more
of the audience were compelled to stand
throughout the rendition Of the programme.
Mr.. Martens was In excellent voice, and
the warm welcome which greeted him
seemed to spur him on to his best efforts.
He is baritone singer, possessing voice
of an exceptionally pleasing quality. The
recital is always the truest test of an ar
lists worth. Here, where the interest and
ear of the listener are focused solely upon
the individual performer, his merits and
dement's are revealed with microscopical
exactitude. And to say that Mr.. Martens
stood the test is to acknowledge his value
as a musician and his Importance as a
singer. With each succeeding number he
bettered the first Impressions; his voice was
of good range, resonant and musical, and
his interpretations and vocalizationS were
always interesting and enjoyable.
The programme was a dignified one from
beginning to end. 1t opened with Valen-
tines cavatina from Gounod's Faust" this
being followed by the aria, "Di Provenza II
Mar, II Suol' from Verdi's La Traviata,"
and song of Tosti's. all of them being
sung in Italian. Although a Norwegian by
birth, Mr. Martens sings equally we'll in
English Italian, French and German. His
rendition in German of Wofram's recita-
tive, "Blick ich Umher," from Wagner's
'Tannhauser,' was one of the best numbers
of the evening, this beautiful selection be-
ing given with much tenderness and purity
of tone. By request Mr. Martens also sang
another number, 20 Du Mein Holder Alb
endstern," from 'Tannhauser," and this,
too, was exceedingly we'll sung. German
songs of Rubenstein, Schumann and Refs
singer and ballads by the American COM
posers, Wilson G.. Smith and Edward Nc
Dowell, together with two or three other
short pieces, filled out a very attractive
musical programme.
Mrs. Harriet Augusta Prunk the we'll
known dramatic reader, was the only other
entertainer on the evenings programme.
She won much applause for her rendition Of
THE Prima Donna" and in response to
demands for an encore gave recitation in
a lighter vein which was also much en-
5oyed by the large audience.
The recital was, on the whole, most sue
cessful one, and there is hardly a doubt
that Mr.. Martens will play an important
part this season In the musical life of the
CITY

PARK.-'Too Proud TO Beg" and s
p. m.
EMPIRE.-Burlesque. and p. m.
The hoop-rolling act of Ollie Young and
his brother at the Grand this week seems
little short OF marvellous. 1t is an act that
has been developed from a crude affair to
a finished and graceful exhibition. A fact
not very well known is that the first hoop
rolling act ever presented on the stage was
given In an Indiana town. Several years
ago a young man of Columbus, Ind. named
Everhardt originated the hoop-rolling spe-
cialty. and tried his new turn at an An
derson theater. II was very clever, and
showed possibilities that encouraged him to
keep working at It, Everhardt has been
the talk OF all Europe for the last three
years. He has just returned TO America,
and will be seen at the Grand during the
present season He was acquainted with
Ollie Young. who is also an Indiana boy,
and. with generosity not always character
isric Of vaudeville performers where their
original specialties are involved, gave the
latter permission TO perform a similar act.
Young abandoned his old club swinging
and became hoop roller second only to
Everhardt. Later on he was joined by his
younger brother, and the two now present
one or the prettiest exhibitions TO be seen
on the vaudeville stage.

great success with the lovers Of melodrama

interesting and to be consistently honest as

that IL contains absorbing story that

A DemoraIixed Mother.

Example, 1t appears, Is an active factor
of existence which works in many differ
ent directions.
I'VE don't know what we are going to
do about mother" remarked a young man
just home from a summer camp. while
we were out in the woods mother got to
talking slang and If she keeps 1t up now
that we are in the city. our social position
will suffer, and that is all there is of it.
Nice people won't have anything to do
with us If mother doesn't give up slang.'
What does she say?" inquired an in
terested listener.
''Oh, various things" the young man
continued. ''One morning at breakfast in
camp mother said I wanted some good
biscuit. so 1 got up early and made these
myself, but I'm afraid they ale awfully
bum.'"
Everybody laughed. of course. and the
young man went on:
THAT same day we were discussing our
simple life in the woods, and how enjoy
able a time we had all had at comparative
ly slight expense. Then mother ended the
pastoral conversation by saying in a very
positive and worldly way: oh yes. of
course, people can have very good plain
time without mucn money, sui IL is money
that knocks"
After everybody had laughed again at such
absurd language from pretty, gray-haired,
refined Mrs. Grecque, the son ended the
distressing tale:
And the worst of 1t is that everybody
in the camp got hold of the story and
whenever they wanted to talk slang-the
awfullest slang-they would attempt to
make it proper by saying: AS Mrs. Grecque
says Mother says that she learned slang
from US, so we have all quit using slang
for fear we shall demoralize father

The Pilgrim.
The pleasure of guests is always greatly
increased by the appearance of the table:
and although many luncheon and dinner
tables unfortunately resemble a counter at
a fancy bazaar. there is still a wide scope
for original effects.
Among these was one recently utilized
for luncheon. A rope of heavy-headed
pink cloves, whose stems were plated to-
gether, was laid about a round table. In
the center was a bowl of the same pink
clovers, mingled with wayside grasses;
while over ii lowered three or four humble
bees, poised on invisible wires. The whole
effect was charmingly al fresco.
At a breakfast in August, given by a
grave jurist to a number of reverend gen.
tlemen, the table was adorned with the i'm
perial wayside thistle, which stood stiff and
stately in tall bowls, with the bronze and
green of oak leaves dropping about it; and
from antique jars the goldenrod, like King
Midas, bowed beneath its weight of gold.
