Tn the Palace of the KIna.p

The attraction at the Jefferson theatre on Friday, February 5, will be Helen : Grantly In "In the Palace of the King" dramatization by Lorrimer Stoddard of r. Marion Crawford's novel of the same name. This play achieved one of the greatest successes of any piece produced in New York two seasons ago, having ran for 200 nights in the metropolis. Miss Grantly has never been better fitted with role than that of Dolores, an in- teresting girl whose love story is remark ably novel in its inception and meets with the usual obstacles that we are told at tend the course of true lovers.
 1 Miss Grantly has acquired reputati ton Tor wearing pretty gowns and recently she said:
 You want to know what I think about the dress of the present day2 I will tell you, notwithstanding the fact that I am wearing dresses in vogue almost four hundred years ago Gin the play, of course.) l, l like the present style very well be- cause it imposes nothing. I find it de- lightful because one can wear what one pleases. and 1t is easier than ever to dis tinguish a woman's taste because she is in no way bound by the dictates of fash Ion. One can, therefore, do what she likes to make her dress as pretty as possible. What does it matter whether ones coiffure. corsage or skirt is made in one style or another so long as the general impression is pleasing 10 the eye? Per sonally, 1 adore the Louis XVI style with it's large coats in simple and becoming hues, and the Directory style. These are my two preferences. In short, l like what allows the outline of the figure to be divined without deforming it.
 Thus, in the dresses of the present sea son l do not at all like the exaggerated puffed sleeves over the forearm; they appear to me contrary to common sense.

AL. H. Wilson.

AL H. Wilson. German dialect come dian and golden voiced singer comes to the Jefferson theatre tomorrow and Tues day nights and Tuesday matinee in his new romantic play, "A Prince of Tat ters," tale of old New York. The story unfolds & plots of intrigue and love in the days when old New York was young.
 Prince Hugo Von Reppert, the central character, has landed in America in search of his wife to whom he was mar ried in boyhood. He is an exile from Austria, condemned for killing a superior officer in a duel fought in defense of a woman's honor. He is without money and a recruit in the service of a society of conspirators called the Merchants Party, whose existence is to overthrow Earl Richard Bellomont, the English governor of New York, for his edict in suppressing Acts of Trade" so designated by the city merchants, which meant to them the end of their profitable trafficing with pir- ates and buccaneers.
 Prince Hugo discovers his wife living with the governor in New York, in com pany with her guardian, Lord Edward Grey. He visits her under an assumed name and learns that she has almost for gotten her boy husband. Hugo in at tempting to save the governors life from trap set by the Merchants Party is wounded and captured and sentenced to death as a conspirator, but is finally sav- ed by the devotion of his wife who se- cures her husbands freedom in exchange for his service to Governor Belomont.
 There Is counterplot of the governor and his wife endeavoring to marry their son, Henry, to Lady Helen, the wife of Hugo after freeing her by divorce from her childish union, but Henry, being ana mored with Ann Clattercop, a burghers daughter, succeeds in circumventing their designs Mir Wilson's supporting com pany is said to be one of unusual excel lence

ferson theatre next Wednesday night in lecture, "The Power of the Cartoon.' It was MT. Davenport who first clothed Mark Hanna In dollar marks, and who from time to time distorted the features of the chairman of the republican cam paign committee into every conceivable shape.
 During the last national campaign nearly every time that Hanna's face ap- peared in a cartoon, and especially on certain lines, Davenport's name was sign ed at the bottom, and some where in 1t would appear the dollar mark, which be- came symbolic of the republican party.
 For long time MT. Hanna and Deven- port never met. The two knew each oth- CT by sight, but had never been intro- duced. After the campaign was over Davenport was one day introduced to Hanna and the two became quite good friends. At first the cartoonst was afraid that the politician would feel hard at him for the fight he made through the papers, but the latter said he admired the genius and the execution, although he did not care much for the conception.
 Davenport will give many new ideas in his lecture, and it will be quite an edu- cational treat. He will explain the differ ent kinds of cartoons, their effects and the weight they carry. He will illustrate his lecture by rapid sketches in pencil, and this alone will be worth seeing.

Only a New York Man.

From the New York Tribune
 The Rev. George C. Lorimer, when he was pastor of Fremont temple, in Boston. entered one evening Boston hall where a lecture was in progress.
 MT. Lorimer stood in the vestibule little while listening to the lecture, and the janitor, a colored man, approached him respectfully.
 "A fair lecture, sah," said the jaGitor.
 "Oh, more than fair, don't you think? ?'' demurred MT. Lormer. T would call this lecturer a brilliant man." !
 Sea cely a brilliant man, sah," said the janitor. "Ah t'ink he's a fair man. sah. but not of de prima facie class. He's good man. sah, a well meanin' man, but not a talented man. He's a New York man. sah."

tory until they are accepted as standard operas. Such an opera Is King Dooo now in it's third year. It is certainly one of the most tuneful works of it's kind that has ever been produced, and the book Is as clever and amusing as any thing which the stage has seen in many years. Since King Dodo' was first pro- duced 1t has played nearly all of the im- portant cities in the country and some of them twice. But in every instance the story is the same-success. King Dodo' is headed by Richard Golden this year and one of the bright spots in the sea- son will be the advent of this merry mon arch locally.
 When "Florodora' was f1e produced at the New York Casino all of those who claim to be experts in the matter of judging new plays felt sure that 1t could not last very long. When 1t had run for a year there was naturally change of sentiment, but then the prediction was made that it was "a New York show and wouldn't go on the road" This has been clearl disproven and the fact that this is the third year the play has been seen en-, tour and still finds it's popularity as great as ever.
 The coming of N. G. Goodwin in a re- vival of his greatest success, "A Gilded Fool, will no doubt be received with exclamation by the many votares of the theatres in this city particularly by those who have seen MT. Goodwin in the entire gamut of his creations. His friends and well wishers always maintaining that as chauncey Short, in this play, he is at his best.
 The Four Cohans, in the musical com edy Running for Office," which George M. Conan, one of the clever quartette wrote for their especial talents, under the direction of Manager Fred Niblo, will be seen at the Jefferson with an immense supporting cast of seventy-two people
 His Excellency the Governor as pre- sented in New York with Sadie Martinot in the original character, will be seen here in the near future. This comedy Is one of the gems of the present season, and Its goes without saying that Miss Martinot is one of the cleverest comedi- ennes on the American stage as well as one of the most beautiful of English speaking actresses. There is no doubt but that great house will greet this famous actress on her appearance here.

that it held the interest of those who

four acts and twice as many scenes.
The presenting company was of ex-

particular stars, the work of all being
well balanced. and in perfect accord
with their lines. In setting the piece
was especially attractive, there being
no less than twelve separate sets
George Flood as Marcus Superbas

The attendance at the matinee per-

doubt, be interested to know that
