REGARDING FANCY WAISTS

Fancy waists OF all kinds are now IN
great demand in spite of the fact that
all the new gowns have waists TO match
the skirts. To begin with, all gowns,
WHISTLER of cloth, yelling or silk. have
waists the same color, but not necessarily
the same material, chiffon or louisine be-
ing especially popular for this purpose.
Then must needs be added to the costume
an indefinite number OF other materials.
Colored waists are not thought so smart
as white or black, the white embroidered
dn colors or with lace, the black trimmed
with yellow or ecru lace. Then there are
the embroidered linen waists, these In all
colors and designs, but always simple in
design, and then the lace waists Of every
kind real or Imitation, made of the all
over lace, the bands OF insertion hem
stitched together, or Of lace and ba.tiste
combined and the muslin and batiste
waists Of great price, exquisite workman
ship and good shape. All white and all
black are the smartest among them, but
there are some OF the daintest imag aginable
blues, pinks and yellows that are extreme
ly becoming.
That all white has been popular almost
too long time is evidenced by the intro
ductaon OF color in the trimmings on
gowns and waists and in the lace, or lace

PLAYS AND PLAYERS

The greatest Of all last seasons melo-
dramatic successes was undoubtedly
that OF ''The Conyict's Daughter" So
FAR this season it has been repeating
its last years success. The theatres
are crowded nightly and the box Office
receipts again prove the wonderful
drawing powers OF this great dramatic
play. It is in five acts, and has a wealth
Of beautiful scenery, the dialogue is
bright, witty and full of comedy, and
every actor has been especially engaged
for his or her respective part. 1t will
be given perfect production in this
city at the Lyceum Theatre next Thurs
day Friday and Saturday.
In organizing The Smart Set" which
is to be the attraction at the Lyceum
Theatre next Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday, Gus Hill has had an eye
for beauty as expressed by African ma
ture; an ear for music and keen sense
OF the popular taste. He made his Sc
lections for the cast of this three-act
comedy. which is up-to-date in every
reuuisite for a vehicle of African talent,
with view to giving the theatre
goer a peep at the methods OF coon
art, and the true value Of humor and
mirth when intelligently and innocent
" applied. Consequently, the fifty peo-
pie chosen to exploit ''The Smart Set
will tle sure to find friends everywhere,
because they will do their utmost to
please and never to offend the most
faEtidious.

There are those who, when they OBJ
serve Misrepresentation and plain
misstatment of facts on local political
matters, say ''Oh! that is only politics.
We must expect that in politics." But
we ought not to have to expect that in
politics. A man, if he is man, will
be as truthful in politics as he is in
business. A good citizen will no more
undertake to mislead his neighbors by
lying to them on political affairs than
he would in business. A man who is
crooked in politics will be crooked in
business and one who is crooked in
business will be crooked in politics.
The fault is in the man and not in the
politics. Politics gives no better
or more fertile field for the successful
liar than does the practice of law, or
medicine, or store keeping, or insur-
ance, or stock buying, or selling land
or dozens of other avocations, and
in all or any other lines the liar and
crooked fellow will be found out soon
er or later. A lie in politics often
attracts more attention than a lie in
business, because it is mostly about
subjects of public interest, but that
should not cause people to think. poll
itics is more corrupt than business.
Some liars sometimes think they have
more license to exercise their black
art in politics than in business, and
we think the public ought to disabuse
their minds of this pretty quick. Pol
tiles ought to be free from misrepre-
sentation. So ought business.
