The STAR

Messrs. Scribner and Drew's Tiger
Lilies company will be the attraction
at the Star theater this week, and in
the two one-act musical comediettas
and vaudeville bill, which it is prom
ised will prove a revelation, much will
be found to please. Those constituting
the vaudeville are James E. Cooper
and company, Brown and Robinson, La
Veen and Cross, Jules Bennett, Julia
Natus, Olga Orloff, Lucia Cuerbo and
Elsie Fay.
Patrons of the Star theater have no
doubt carried over from the past two
seasons recollections of Scribner and
sDrew's Tiger Lilies company and the
fact that this same organization be-
gins its engagement there is a good
sign that business will be up and do

The Kittens Confidence.

Either human nature is n little more
kindly than it is generally thought to be-
orelse there is something particularly en-
gaging about kitten" said man who
is in the habit of taking his lunch close to
the Star building the other day.
Il have noticed almost every day,
when go into the pie joint where fill
up at noon, that there is small kitten
sitting out in front of the shoe shop next
to my hashery. 1t is about the smallest
kitten l have ever seen, very bow-legged,
and little enough to curl up inside the
average boarding house tea cup. 1t is
also about as arrogant a small cat as |
| have ever seen, for it sits out on the
sidewalk, and if you want to 60 that
way you have to pull out and go round.
The small cat will sit there and regard
you with superior sort of air, hut move
peg? Well, guess not.
There are about 947 department
clerks and Others who patronize the same
refectory as l. Now, have watched the
majority of them going back and forth,
and have yet to see one who did not
circle out for the kitten. Most of them
stop and speak to it. and the kitten re-
ciprocates by rearing onits hind legs like
squirrel or arching it's back to be
scratched. 1t knows that none of these
big men are going to hurt it, and so far
as have observed its confidence is not
misplaced. Washington Star

Would Change Occasionally.

There's brand new baby over in my
neighborhood," said furniture dealer
who lives on the West Side There's
nothing remarkable about that; we've
had babies there before. But one peculiar
thing have noticed in connection with
this recent arrival: Itcries, not constant
ly, but internationally and naturally.
And every being of the feminine gender,
children with sawdust dolls in their
arms, maiden ladies of uncertain age,
mothers of families, young and old, with
inlistening distance of that baby's home,
has been declaring that she knew that if
that were her baby, it wouldn't cry.
I've heard that so many times during the
past fortnight that I've fallen into the
habit of muttering to myself that if l
owned that baby, it wouldn't cry. OF
course, it would cry, and it ought to cry.
If it didn't cry, it couldn't talk later on,
and if it's girl baby that would be a
dreadful affection. | told the father
about it. He laughed.

wished it was their baby. "-Providence

Getting Even.

The following story is told OF Il we'll
known actor now playing in England:
Not long ago he received from New
York friend an unpaid letter, containing
nothing but the folio wing brief message:
81 am we'll. With kind regards. Your
friend, -"
The recipient, annoyed at having to
pay postal charges for such a piece of
news. determined to retaliate in kind.
Procuring heavy stone, he packed it in
box and sent it to his New York friend,
marking the box, Collect on delivery"
The friend, believing the contents to be
valuable, gladly paid the heavy express
charges due. On opening the box, he
found, to his dismay, nothing but the
stone and an attached ticket, on which
was written:
"On receiving the news that you were
well, the accompanying load rolled off
my heart."-Harper's Weekly.
