CARE. OF WATCHES.
How They Should. Re Wound and
 Kept Free of Dust.

How They Should Re Wound and
 Kept Free of Dust,
 Don't abuse your watch. These lit tie workers that tirelessly tick along, even when their owners are asleep, are worthy of far better treatrhent than they receive. Fully 90 per cent of the people who carry a watch never give them thought.
 Take, for instance, the simple proc ess of winding watch. There is a right and n wrong way of doing 1t. Whether it be by key or a stem it should be wound in the morning. Turn slowly and avoid all jerky movements. The watch will then work best during the. day, as the spring will exert its strongest traction power, whereby the external jostling inflicted on the watch by your daily work and walks are fair ly counterbalanced.
 When a watch is wound at night 1t has only the weakened spring to offer as resistance to the jerks and jolts of the daytime. The morning winding also lessens the danger of breaking the handspring, which. being no longer at full tension, at night can stand the cold better. The difference in tempera- ture between your breast or mans waistcoat pocket and wall that may be nearly at the freezing point is about v to SS degrees F.. and a watch should therefore never be suspended or laid again a cold surface. Sudden change in the temperature of the atmosphere is the cause of most mainsprings breaking.
 The watch wearer should clean his or her pockets frequently, carefully brushing out all the dust and Yber, for there was never a joining nslde tight enough to keep out all the dust. This gets into the oil which has thickened with time md necessarily produces ir- regularities of rate. Even with tho greatest care q watch should be clean ed once in eighteen months, and every year would be better. By this time the OH dries ap and mixes with the metallic dust. It grinds away on the works like emery.
 When you smash your watch glnss shake out the broken glass, open the little rlm that holds 1t, the bezel; lay over the face a piece of tissue paper and shut the bezel. This will save the hands catching In things and not in- terfere with the going of the watch until you can get the glass put in

1.-THE WHITE SLAVE"

Bartley Campbell was a master of Intelligent melodrama, being to the American stage what D'Ennery was
 to that of Franc, and it is conceded
 that never constructed a better >melo-
 drama than '"The White Slaye,'' which will be played at Polls tomorrow af-
 ternoon and evening. The plot of the play turns on the pitiful tale of ;a white girl who Is made slave on the suppositfon that she is an octo- room. Her trials, the insults and
 degradation inflicted upon her, her
 flight with her lover from a cruel
 master, who is the villain of the play, lRnd the happy denouement when her Identity isrevealed have won the syn- .pathy of millions for years, and the plantation scenes, with the wide fields dotted with the log cabins of the
 field hands, the ''big house. with it's Terandas covered with vines, and the sold plantation darkies singing those fbeautifuf old melodies in the true dar- Key fashion, are "reminiscences dear to tthe heart of every American, whether he lived in such environments or not lit is q phase of life that is invested with sentiment and charm that none other possesses. and, like wine, seems to improve with age. It ought to ldraw out two very large audiences to-
 morrow, as 1t is a number of years since 1t has been played here. Prices
 are popular.

VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES

VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.
 Irish comedy of the real kind, showing the race in it's natural in- stead of distorted condition is very popular with local thea ter -goers, which accounts for the extraordinary popularity that Tom Nawn and com pany have won from patrons of the Jacques for their remarkable sketch 'sPat and the Genii" It has been claimed. that this is the best Irish act dn vaudeville, and the claim will hardly be disputed by anyone who has seen it during the past few days. There is such q quaint humor and novelty of conception in the sketch, and it is played with such easy nat hralness by MT Nawn and his associ- ates, that it may be regarded as unique by those who favor Irish com edy. 1t is certainly most refreshing ill its departure from the caricatures that the stage Irishman has furnished in the past and as an eXemplification of how properly amusing true Irish comedy is. With the old time variety features that make up the remainder of the bill the show has a life and snap that commend it to vaudeville habitues. Among the contributors are Clayton Kennedy and Mattie Roo ney, the Heavenly Twins, Marron and Mitchell, the Two Pucks, Eddie Derva, the Helstons and the electro graph. Prices are 10, 20 and 30 cents; afternoons 10 and 20 cents, la dies 10.

, MrI.nRED HoLLAND.

A very interested audience greeted Mildred Holland and. her company last night in the first production in this city of her new and elaborate drama, ''The Triumph of an Empress, It
 was given additional interest from the fact that the scenes are laid in Russia and the present controversy be- tween thst country and Japan creates the new Impressions. Miss Holland, as on all her visits to this city, was pleasing ill her work and cleverly en- acted theN character of Catherine the Great of Russia. She had with her a strong supporting company, who ably assisted in making the production the grand success it attained. The play is elaborately costumed and staged. following out the plans of MT White, Miss Hollands manager, in all produc- tions In which she has been starred.
