BLOWERS, LANE"

Clyde Fitch's beautiful play, "Lov- ers' Lane" which comes to Polls Sat urday afternoon and evening, has a wonderful record of over 150 times in New York city and nearly 100 times in Chicago. The story concerns the struggles of a progressive young pas tor of country church against the marrow prejudices of his flock, woven lin delicately with his oppression is the Hove of the minister for gentlewoman (who is betrothed to another man with checkered past. The young woman, Mary Larkin, fascinated by the strength of character and the mental and moral superiority of the young minister, falls Tn love with him in turn.
 Ahe villagers with whom he has been at war take him back to their hearts when they discover they cannot find his equal to fill the pulpit, and all goes merrily along Lovers Lane again. The cast is a large one, numbering thirty tpeople, and over a carload of special sEcenery.

When Koreans don mourning the first stage demands hat as large as diminu- tive open clothes basket It is four feet in circumference, and completely conceals the face, which is hidden fur ther by piece of coarse lawn stretched upon two sticks, and held just below the eyes. In this stage nothing what ever of the face may be seen The second stage is denoted by the removal of the screen. The third period is mani fested through the replacement of the inverted basket by the customary head gear, made in straw color. The ordi- nary head covering takes the shape of the high-crowned hat worn by Welsh women, with a broad brim, made in black gauge upon bamboo frame.

When John c. Fishers stupendous musical production, 'The Silver Slip per-" is presented at Polls Saturday afternoon and evening, May IA, they will bring their own special orchestra X of fourteen men. Few people who attend a musical production can com prehend what this statement means, < that, is. an orchestra of fourteen men, allApicked musicians, some who have

 rk, others who have been members

 eodore Thomas concert orchestras.
 means an expense that few produc-
 managers will, for moment,
 untenance. It means that, aside
 om the salary of the conductor and
 ia first violin, the expense attending
 lese twelve men averages $4S apiece r $4S0 a week That is exclusive of ailroad transportation. These are the greed union rates of the musical un- on of New York city and are impera- Stive in every large city throughout %this country. There is probably no notification of trades or assemblies that ds so powerful as the musicians union Then add $75 week for the first violin player and $100 for the conductor 1t makes total cost of moving the orchestra of $655 pc

women wno Fought.

The passionate patriotism of the Jap- anese is nothing new, nor is the part the women play in war to be wondered at in view of the past history of Japan. In this latter day there has been nothing to develop Molly Pitchers among them. but time was when the women fought in battle not longer ago than half cen- tury. In the last struggle of the shogun against the mikado women of the samurai took up arms and fought like any soldiers, while Japanese women talk with pride of Empress Jingu Kogo, who nearly 2,O00 years ago led an army into Korea, riding into battle at the head of her troops dressed in mans clothes It is the son of this empress, afterward a mikado, who is to-day worshiped as the god of war

week. Outside of the Grau Opera company, this Is the largest special or chestra that has ever toured the coun- try in connection with a musical com edy.
 It was found impossible the first two weeks of the present SC lson, even with a more than average theater or chestra, to properly render Leslie Stewards idylic music, and 1t was only after considerable consideration and much hesitation that John c. Fisher organized this special orches- tra for this company. The actual amount of salaries involved i'll the or chestra alone Is really more than the entire salary list of 75 per cent of the travelling companies.
 Herr Max Winne, the conductor, has often officiated ill many of the largest orchestras Ill this country, being a graduate of His Imperial Maj esty's College of Music, Berlin, and designated K. S.. Kings Student, I'm perial German Musical College.
