WOMEN AT VAUDEVILLE
CLOSING OF SEASONS ENTERTAIN
MENTS AT COLUMBIA CLUB.
The Performance Arranged for the
Ladies Was Well Attended and
Generously AppIauded.

The series of vaudeville entertainments
at the Columbia Club that has furnished
diversion for the members during the past
season was brought to fitting climax last
night with performance arranged especial
~ for the ladies' The entertainment COM
mittee, consisting of DR.. II. c. Kahlo, chair
man, and s. d. Miller, DR.. G.. Z. Hunt, A.
c. White and F. c. Dickson, made special
effort to arrange programme of unusual
merit, and in this they were successful, Sc
curing the best professional talent to be
had at the local theaters. That their eff
forts were appreciated was attested by the
large audience. that filled every available
seat on the floor of the ballroom and in the
balcony. and by the fact that fully half Of
those present were ladies.
superintendent Hurley acted as stage
manager, and under his direction the per-
Torrance went off without a hitch. The
programme was opened promptly at 8
o'clock by Miss Gertie De Milt, the pretty
soubrette who has made such a hit at the
Empire during the past week. Her turn
consisted of a song and dance that was
cordially received and encored. The "Har-
mony Four" from the Grand, followed with
some excellent singing and comedy that
proved unusually effective. The members
of the quartet are musicians of ability. and
the grotesque make-ups of three of them,
especially that of Happy Hooligan," kept
the audience in laughter from curtain to
curtain.
Dainty little Miss Hte, striking bru-
nette, chic and decidedly Partisan, sang a
French song and responded to generous en-
cores with two coon songs and Sprightly
dance. Howley and Leslie, also from the
Grand, followed Miss Hite, their number
clever impersonatOn by Miss Leslie who
found the audience warmly apprecative of
her simple country maid song and mono
lOgue.
Ziska, the magician from the Empire, pre-
scented a number of tricks which he had
not given at the theater during the week.
His stunts are mystifying. with just enough
comedy to make them take well. Kelly and
Viclette, the fashion plates" from the
spOnsive to their efforts. Mr.. Kelly has
pleasing baritone voice. while Violette or
Mrs. Kelly, as she is known in everyday
life, is a beautiful woman, handsomely
gowned, and quite capable of holding up
her end of the sketch in a musical way.
They were generously encored and took a
curtain call.
Harry Porter, a local artist was well re-
ceived in his black-face turn, consisting of
a monologue and coon songs. Little Alice
Berry, from the Park, concluded the pro-
gramme with a song and mock-heroic
burlesque- Following the entertainment
the orchestra was taken TO the dining room
where the audience went 10 take supper
The success of the entertainment was so
pronounced that next season will doubtless
see more than one ladies' night vaudeville.

MRS. BURGERT ARRESTED.
Accused Of SwindIing Advertisers
with a Pamphlet Scheme.

Mrs. Emma j. Burgert, a graduate of the
Central College of Physicians and Surgeons,
was behind the bars of the female depart
mert of the police station last night. She
is charged with obtaining money under false
pretenses, and it is alleged that over a hun
dred Indianapolis business men have been
mace victims of her scheming She has
been soliciting advertisements for an Arbor-
day pamphlet. which was to have been dis
tributed among the school children of the
city and Detectives Colbert and Hauser
claim she represented to the people who
gave her advertising that she was at pres
ent school teacher and in the employ of
the city, and that she intended TO distribute
500 OF these pamphlets among the children
of the public schools through the School
Board. Instead of having 5000 printed she
only contracted for loo, and when these We're
done she went around to the firms who
and said that the rest had been sent out to
the different schools OF the city for distri-
buti2n. She also borrowed number Of
half9one cuts from the Park Board, which
she used in illustrating her book
indianapolis was not the only place Wis
tied by Mrs: Burgert. as she admits having
done advertising work In Anderson recently
and thereby added considerably TO her bank
account, which is said to be in the neigh
borhood OF 500. She says that these PAM
phless were such a success in Pittsburg
Cleveland and other cities where she tried
them before that she decided 10 try them
here. She claims no bad motives and saws
that her intentions were good but that she
was delayed by the printer nearly two
weeks. and that the final examinations at
the medical college made il impossible for
her To complete her work in time She in
slsts, however, that the entire 5000 PAM
phlets would have been distributed IL the
detectives had not interfered
Mrs Burgert impresses one as being an
educated and refined woman. She saws that

BISHOP CHATARD's WORK.
How Diocese Has Grown and Pros.
pered During His Charge.

How Diocese Has Grown and Pros
pered During His Charge.
Bishop Chatard is known and beloved by
the people Of the whole diocese, and is
widely recognized as a high-minded and
scholarly prelate. His pastoral letters have
always been noted for their mastery die
ton, and as a writer he wields facile as
well as a virile pen, as exemplifed in his
series of articles published under the title
of Occasional Essays" The progress of
the diocese under his care has been steady
and great. This growth was succintly but
modestly set forth in his recent letter to
the clergy and laity of the diocese.
When he took charge in 1878 there were
III priests laboring in the diocese-seventy-
nine secular and thirty-eight priests of re-
ligious orders, minstering TO $4,000 Cath
olics. To-day there are 1y6 priests and an
estimated Catholic population of l04 4S5.
Twenty-Five new schools for boys and
girls were opened during the twenty-five
years, and upward of 15.OO0 children are
ceiving solid Catholic training. In addition
the Sisters OF Charity established a hospital
al Indianapolis. the Sisters of St Francis
of Lafayette, other large ones at Terre
Haute and New Albany, the Sisters of
Mercy at Jeffersonville, the Sisters of Prov
idence an industrial school at Indianapolis,
while the Poor Clares have a large mon
astery at Evansville; all of which have
been established within the past twenty
five years. Twenty-four new churches were
built in the quarter of a century, number
congregations were organized in the city of
Indianapolis alone
The growth of the diocese has been steady
the spiritual growth being commensurate
ing between bishop and clergy is a most
harmonious one.

occasion. His health of late years has been
