Lillian "No Clown for Mrs. Fish,"

NEW YORK, Feb Without mine
ing matters Lillian Russell announced
today that under no circumstances"
would she appear at Mrs. Stuyvesant
Fish's party Friday night with the
Lady Teazle' company. She said:
II should refuse to act in anyone's
home as paid performers clown
to amuse guests after dinner. 1t
would place me in a mental position,
which I can avoid by refusing to go
to Mrs Fish's house. I have been en-
tertained in homes Of quite as much
importance as Mrs. Fish's, and there
is another reason why I should not
appear there. It is one matter to
perform on the stage Of a theater and
in private. My understudy. Miss Robe.
