Can Ladies Smoke Tobaccos

Julian Hawthorne, in the Smart Set
There is no great mystery in the fact
that one woman can smoke without detri-
ment 10 us or to herself, and another cam
not. One is free from self-consciousness,
the other is hobbled and handcuffed by it.
If you think Ii is wrong, ii Is wrong-for
you. If you do 1T out of bravado, you are
a vulgar hussy, though you be of the strain
Of We're de We're; but if you possess the
greatness to be truly indifferent to outside
opinion, or II you are so sincerely inno-
cent as not to suspect yourself of audacity,
you may safely produce your cigarette case
in the drawing-room of Lady Pharisee her
self Such is the situation as regards this
great question, here and now. Hereafter
1t may be different, and at the present time.
as we have remarked, there are nations
whose women are. and have ever been, I'M
hampered I'm this direction, and who smoke
with the simplicity and confidence which
being supported and secured by the mighty
impersonal spirit of the public opinion and
custom OF their country. But now and then
one of these chartered libertines strays
from her native land, and finds her way
to us, bringing her country's custom with
her: and she. in her naive pursuance of her
habit, acts the part. no doubt of eff
cient missionary of the weed. Very grave,
earnest and preoccupied ladies / have met
maidens; and 1 would have thought of
complaining OF the vaporous rings and
wreaths wherewith they enveloped them
selves as little as of their accent or the
color OF their hair. In short, smoking for
ladies, like kissing, goes by favor.

bowling comedy. While crudely put to-
gether. the play undoubtedly is strongly
appealing TO those who love that sort OF
thing, and should enjoy a good run for the
remaining two matinees and two nights.
One OF the features of the performance
was the act Of the Landseer dogs, cleverly
educated and developed by their trainer:
William T. Stephens. Mr.. Stephens scored
one OF the hits of the show with his we'll
nigh human CANNES. THE Way of the
Transgressor" is a tale of rough Western
life and a plain Western people. Virtues
are little overdone and vices are painted
perhaps too black, but the tone of the
play is not so bad for all that. Miss VIC
toria Walters as Romp scampers over the
stage for the greater part of the time, the
juvenile part being one of the bright bits
of character work. II. r. Zahner, playing
the part of the despised and detested VIII
lain is wicked in q commendable manner
and does his lines intelligently. AS the
Scotland Yard detective, G. a. Martor
should be given especial mention. The
others are for the most part mediocre.
In addition TO the clever dog act number
of specialties given. Flyne and Dandy,
comedy acrobats, serve to amuse for few
minutes. although they have nothing new
to offer. Evans and Clements, labeled
'parodists and punsters" by the pro-
gramme, appear with a labored dialogue
The adjective painful, appended TO their
description, would not be out of place. The
Americas comedy four in grotesque cos
tune, sing several songs fairly well
The scenic effects of the show are little
better than are offered with the ordinary
melodrama, the tunnel scene being especial
ly thrilling to true lover of that species
excitement.

Burlesoue mt the Empire.

There are many good hearty laughs in the
performance given by THE Moonlight
Maids at the Empire this week. Rice, of
the acrobatic team of Rice and Provost, is
responsible for most of them, but there are
several other clever mirth producers in the
company and the attraction is the whole
above the average in the burlesque line.
Miss Toma Hanlon. statuesque brunette,
who has a sweet voice that she can use to
advantage and the idea that the proper role
of a burlesque star should be refined an6
appeal solely on its legitimate merits, is the
leading woman of the company. She makes
the most of the part given her in "A
Rialto Rounder," but her opportunities are
not what they should be in order that she
might appear to the best advantage. In
fact, "a Rialto Rounder'' is not the best
vehicle imaginable for the really clever peo-
pie in the company. Joe Fields carries the
burden of the fun-making for the men.
The olio is by far the best part of the
programme, and in this Rice and Provost
carry off the honors with a rough and tum-
BILE acrobatic turn that is the funniest as
well as the cleverest thing If its kind that
the Empire has offered this season. Pre-
vost does some straight tumbling of an ex-
cellent character, but Rice is the star of the
team as clown who falls all over himself
and everything on the stage with the most
reckless abandon. He doesn't say a word
during the turn, but words unnecessary
his makeup and his antics are sufficient
10 keep the audience in a continual roar
of laughter. The turn must be to be
appreciated, and it is will worth seeing.
Marie Rogers, who is billed as 1.-The great
est of all coon shouters. opens the olio,
and she certainly makes good with the EN-
pire patrons with whom she Is an Old-time
favorite. Frederick Bros and Jessie Burns
follow with musical turn that takes both
for it's novelty and excellence and for the
comedy element, to which all three con-
tribute. De LONE and Cotrely, as women
jugglers, are something of a novelty and
their work shows unusual skill and dexter
ity. Joe Field and Mark Wooley, as eccen-
trio German comedians, do their full part
toward arousing the many laughs brought
out by the show.
The closing burlesque, "A Roundup
which is a continuation Of the first act,
gives the chorus a better opportunity ard
the audience yesterday afternoon was
quick to appreciate the fact, making the
girls work overtime on several Of the songs
and dances.
The Moonlight Maids will be at the
Empire all week, giving two performances
daily.

END OF KATHERINE HOME
1T is NO LONGER POSSIBLE TO MAIN.
TAIN THE INSTITUTION.
The Closing VIII BE Deferred Until
Next May to Give Inmates a Chance
to Get Other Homes.

1t is understood that at the last meeting
Of the board OF directors of the Katharine
Home, held a few days since. the conclu-
sion was reached that ii was no longer pos
sible to maintain the institution and that
il must be closed. 1t was decided to defer
the closing until next May. but In order
to raise funds for the expenses up to that
time it was found necessary TO place =
mortgage on the property.
The six months, delay, however. was
thought to be due to the inmates by af-
fordng them time for the making of other
arrangements. 1t was with the greatest
reluctance that the directors took this
action, and it was only done after every eff
fort had been made to secure the money
needed for the running expenses. The
home has no endowment fund and from
the beginning it's income has been obtained
through personal solicitation OF citizens
and by the holding Of fairs. etc. For some
reason. perhaps because OF the increasing
demands upon the charitable, IL has be.
come more and more difficult TO secure con-
tributions and debts have been contracted
which the managers have been unable TO
meet. The home has supplied accommo-
dations for twelve aged women who will BE-
put 10 mucn distress Dy us Closing. Many
more applications for admission were made
than IL was possible to consider, and In
view OF the general understanding OF the
benefit OF the institution the directors are
the more surprised at the indifference in
regard TO its support sho gn I'm city which
Is noted for its liberality in other lines
OF benevolence.
The Katharine Home was established
about ten years ago. The first step toward
IL was taken by DIR. l. ID. Waterman some
time previous, when he gave some subur-
ban lots for the use of such an institution.
Later, Mrs. John G. Wright made con-
tribution OF $4,000 in memory OF her daugh-
ter, for whom the home was afterwards
named. Mrs. Wright has also contributed
literally TO its maintenance. With the no.

ground. together with some smaller con-
tributions. the building now occupied was
purchased. 1t was hoped by the promoters
TO secure enough further donations TO
make certain at least part OF the neces-
sary income, but In this they have been
disappointed and now feel unwilling longer
TO carry the financial responsibility or the
establishment.
