east Lynne, at the Park.

The old, old story of East Lynne was
retold at the Park yesterday to a large
audience in the afternoon and an assembly
OF moderate size in the evening. The play,
which seems TO have lost none of its at
traction for many theater-goers, has been
seen in indianapolis times out of number.
1t was presented at the Park last fall by
the same company that opened a half
weeks engagement yesterday. the present
cast being the same, with but two or three
exceptions, as the one which interpreted the
old piece during the earlier engagement.
Inez Forman is again seen as the foolish
ly jealous Lady Isabel. part she has been
playing for several seasons She has the
right conception of the character for she
makes Isabel a poor, weak. silly sort of
creature in the early scenes of the play
Just the sort of woman who would have
made so much ado about nothing. Miss
Forman's one great fault is that, in her
efforts to be natural, she suppresses her
voice to such an extent that her words can
scarcely be heard beyond the first ten rows
of orchestra chairs. Park audiences are
accustomed to loud-voiced heroines and
they find IL somewhat difficult to take the
right amount Of interest in this soft-spoken
The role of the hero, Archibald Carlyle,
Is we'll taken by a handsome young actor,
Cellmont S. Barklands who is the sort of
chap from which matinee idols are made.
Besides being a good leading man he pos
sesses a sweet baritone voice which is
heard to advantage in the old-time ballad.
Then You'll Remember Me- which was
borrowed from the opera of Bohemian
Girl when East Lynne" had its original
production ages ago Mr. Barkland handles
the character of Archibald as we'll as could
be expected, and reads the newspapers as
faithfully as of old. What an inveterate
newspaper reader Archibald is, anyway.
He reads 'em on all occasions, and. after
all, IL is hardly to be wondered at that
poor Lady Isabel goes almost out of her
head with evaporation when she tries TO
talk to him. The moment Isabel has some-
thing to impart to him, what does Archie DO
but become absorbed in the latest report
from London or a bit of inconsequcntial
gossip from nowhere i'm particular? IL the
matter should be sfted to the bottom il
would probably be found that IL was
Arches penchant for reading when he
should have been love-making that drove
his wife away from home with the wicked
Sir Francis Levison.
John Dillon, the veteran comedian, plays
the character of the old servant and in
jects considerable humor into the part. and
Vernon Somers does we'll in the role of Sir
Francis Levison. newcomer In the COM
pany is Miss Avis Lobdell, who gives a good
performance OF Barbara Hare, and the
other leading roles are acceptably filled by
Madeline Winthrop jeffrey Frazer and
Phillip James. The play will continue at
the Park until Thursday and will then be
followed by the uproarious musical farce,

PRINCESS ALICE SAID
TO HAVE BEEN ROBBED
Belgian Accused of Having Sc
cured Necklace from Paris
Jeweler.

PARIS, March 2s.-No confirmation is
obtainable here of the rumor from Sori.
Italy, that Princess Alice De Bourbon,
daughter of Don Carlos. the pretender to
the Spanish throne. who is sojourning at
Sori, had been robbed of a historical neck
lace valued at 100000. The authorities of
this city are making inquiries into the
matter.
The Petit Temps prints an interview
which Don Jaime. brother OF Princess Alice
De Bourbon, is alleged to have given the
Warsaw Courier on the subject of the his
torical necklace of which the princess is
reported to have been robbed. According
to this interview the necklace was fraudu-
lently obtained March II last, from a
Paris jeweler to whom il had been en-
trusted for repairs. The person who OBJ
tanned the necklace. according TO the in
terview, is a Belgian who acted as an in
termediary between the princess and the
jeweler and who persuaded the latter by
showing correspondence that he had au-
thority to receive il.
II is believed the prince is alleged to
have said that the Belgian, who disap-
peared, passed the necklace to persons in
England.

Caring for the Old.

Harper's Weekly.
One thing is very hard for US to realize,
and that is that old people. though so
childlike in many ways-in innocence, in
lovableness, often, too, in eager interest in
the activities going on about them-are not
at all childlike in one important particular
they are not teachable. Nor is this their
fault, but the fault of old age itself, of
that hardening of the tissues of brain and
nerve which constitutes old age. The spirit
dwelling within may be gently meek and
full of humility and wisdom, but the organ
ism no longer nimbly responds. A sort of
slow petrification is going on, and. although
In noble natures this process results in
preserving thoughts and feelings of fern
like delcacy in imperishable beauty, yet
il does not lend itself to the reception of
new impressions. The central growth may
go on, and new ideas which harmonize with
the old may be received into the organism,
but surface things, such daily habits,
set beyond alteration.

Another indianapolis Prima Donna.

Another Indianapolis soprano is to be-
come a comic opera prima donna. Mrs.
George Edwin Hunt. who has been studying
music in New York for the last six months,
has been engaged by Manager Henry w.
Savage to create the role of the Nightingale
in the new musical extravaganza, Wood
land" by Gustave Luders and Frank Pix
ley, which is TO have its production in Bos-
ton this spring. Mrs. Hunt was given
voice trial. last week before Nine. Cot
trelly and Mr.. Odell, the voice testers for
Manager Savage, and was engaged inn
mediately after for the Savage forces. The
manager wanted her to go to London with
the Prince of Pisen" company that sails
for the British metropolis the latter part
of April, but Mrs. Hunt wished to re-
main in this country she was assigned to
the cast of the forthcoming Woodland
production.
Before her marriage to DR.. Hunt, of this
city, Mrs. Hunt was in comic opera She
was then known as Ida Brooks, and had
three years of stage experience. Her voice,
under careful training, has greatly i'm
proved, and it is believed by her many In
dianapols friends that she will score a
great success upon her return to the foot
lights.

and one time when L was away John
burned the bottom out of it. He put it
right in on the Goals, and then forgot it
while he was reading his newspaper. Ten
cent coffee pots are plenty good enough
for John, but bless his nice, old, thick head,
