NINE. YALE'S LECTURE.
Large Crowd at the New National
Theater

The National Theater was crowded to the
doors with feminine followers in the foot
steps of Ponce de Leon when Nine. Yale.
demonstrator extraordinary of the art of
retaining beauty, delivered her entertain
ing and instructive lecture on the care wo-
man should give her charms. Nine. Yale,
appearing as fresh and beautiful a
spring flower, held the attention of her
audience for three hours she discoursed
on the few simple precautions that should
be taken by womankind to preserve tho
graces and charms that make them the
more attractive sex. The lecture was di-
vided into four parts, in each of which the
lecturer devoted herself to one particular
branch of the art of which she is one OF
the best known opponents.
In the first part she devoted herself to an
explanation of the uses of the various prep
arations for the publication and beautif1-
cation of the skin. Some of these prepara-
lions, she declared, are positively injurious,
while others are most beneficial. She said
pure soap and water form the basis of all
skin treatments and that various prepara-
tons should be used afterward, but clean
illness by means of soap and water comes
first.
The second part of the lecture was de-
voted to a practical demonstration of the
proper methods of brea thing. The costume
of the lecturer in this part of the program
was calculated to best show the effect
of deep breathing.
The third section of the program was ar
ranged to show the proper method of walk
ing, and Nine. Yale appeared in black silk
tights, SO that every motion of her legs
could be plainly seen.
In the fourth part demonstration of the
proper way of using lotions and creams
was given.

immigration

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
In The Star of April IA appeared an out
line of a bill which is being prepared by
Dr. Adolphe Danzger. United States con-
sui at Aberdeen, Scotland. to be introduced
in the coming session of Congress. having
the warm sanction of prominent Hebrews
all over the country"
This bill provides that "for the next year
there shall be no alien steerage inmigra-
ton TO any of the eastern ports of the
United States. but permitting as much i'm
migration as the steamships can BRING
when the immigrants are landed in the
south or west"
A short time ago the newspapers gave an
account of the kindly interest an Italian
consul is taking in a scheme to COLOMBO
the south with his surplus countrymen.
Other philanthropic foreigners are max
ing similar efforts which also doubtless
have the warm sanction of themselves.
1t occurs to me to ask how about the
American people. While all this colonizng
and parceling out of the country Is gong
on where are they supposed to go? ASK
them-the American citizens without a
hyphen-if they have warm sanction
for the present rush of immigration and
for these new efforts to increase it, and
nine out of ten will answer no. L believe
l am entirely correct in this
/ commend the excellent article in last
Sundays Star on immigration. written by
John Elfreth Watkins. 1t is mighty In
