Theafer in Her Private Car

NEW KIND of Pullman porter
N will soon be in demand. In addi-
ton to his old duties of the dust
brush he must know all about calcium
lights, right and left exits, and border
drops. He may even have to be a
dramatic critic. If the latest design In
private cars becomes popular among
theatrical stars q course in stage man
agement and dramatic theory will
probably be added to the present re-
quirements for railroad men.
1t is announced that Maude Adams is
to have a private Pullman theater car,
which when finished will be the only
vehicle of it's kind in existence. The
plan is to relieve the actress of some of
the inconvenience of one-night stands
and long tours across the continent.
The car, when completed, is to be a
combination of living apartments and a
completely equipped theater for the re-
hearsal Of scenes and one-act pieces.
1t will be known as the Thinker Bell, -
and will cost when fully furnished
from $4,000 to $4,000. The Pullman
company will build the car.
The need of such car is said to arise
from Miss Adams wish for absolutely
private rehearsals while on tour of a
number of one-act pieces which she has
long had under consideration. In New
York, and particularly on the road it
is sometimes hard to find on short
notice an available theater or a clear
stage for private rehealsals.
According to specifications, the stage
part of the car will be forty feet in
depth and will have no windows.
Grooves for the scenery, which will be
admitted into the car by sliding doors
at the rear of the stage, take up the
usual window space. Daylight can be
had, if desired, through ceiling win
dows.
There will be border lights, footlights,
calcium lights and spot lights. There
will be lockers for costumes and lockers
for properties and tools. Steps will
lead from the stage to the floor of the
car which will be without stationary
chairs, The stage appliances will be
of the simplest kind, such as any Pull
man porter can manage.
At the other end of the car will be a
dining room, a private room with sta
tionary bed and bath, a kitchen and
servants rooms. Miss Adams will be
entirely independent of hotels. This
end of the car will be fitted with obser-
walton windows.
According to the contract the new
car(is to be ready FOR the beginning of
Miss Adams, tour next fall.

Sarah Bernhardt Coming

nE ADAME SARAH BERNHARDT
W announces that although the
time which she expected to de-
vote to pleasing San Francisco audi
ences will he Cancelled, she is still
ready to give 20 Los Angeles the three
performances which she has promised
at Venice. Denver has requested two
additional performances and Salt Lake
City, owing to a heavy demand for
seats, has requested two more nights
in that city. BY playing one night at
Pueblo and one night at Colorado
Springs Madame Bernhardt can easily
make up the weeks she loses in San
Francisco. AS this is her last tour OF
America the entire public is interested
in this great queen of tragedy ana
she has more requests for her time
than she can fill.
The changing of her dates may cause
the Venice engagement to take place
on Friday evening, May "a, and Satur-
day matinee and evening, May 20. The
repertoire has not yet been selected
although there has been great de-
mand for Ia Sorciere," which is now
considered Madame Bernhardts strong
est impersonation. The demands for
Camille" at the matinee have been so
overwhelming that this bill has been
positively selected for that perform
ance. For the closing bill it may be
"Phedre," Racine's tragedy in five
acts as it seems to have the lead over
any others in the number of requests
although "Angelo" and "Sapho" have
been requested by many. The price of
reserved seats will be the same as the
eastern Bernhardt prices, the only diff
ference being that a round trip ticket
will be furnished free to all purchas-

ASH week Will pc a nightmare TO

disaster in Frisco killed business and
not show house in town did anything
worth while.
At the Mason q brand new play, as
strong q one as we have had here in
months. played to yawning emptiness;
even the Belasco was deserted. an all
most unprecedented condition, and
the cheaper houses all suffered
This condition was directly attrfbuta-
hle to the great rush Of relief work
and the disinclination of people to seek
amusement when their dollars would
do so much good up north.
But this condition will pass 1t all
ready shows tendency to, thank for
tune We are too far from Frisco and
have done too much for her to NOPE
and morn over what doesn't affect u.s.
And we must get ourselves in trim
for Bernhardt. OF the wisdom of play
playing the Divine Sarah at Venice,
out over the waves, am not certain;
of the novelty of 1t there can be no
cayil: it will be more spectacular than
was her tent stunt--and that was about
the limit.
Sarah will be the last big thing. The
season is on the wane. After the
Fiesta we will get into the summer
running, the dolce far niente of the
year.

The Equipment for a Short Trip.

A short trip in the country does not
call for much luggage or many changes
i'll dress. To stop for three or four
days III the country in summer re-
qulres two or three changes Of dress,
but not more. n most convenient
gown is pretty silk costume, a skirt
with one high-cut and one low-cut
waist.
When the journey is short the dress
one travels ill.,, especially if ii be in
the convenient coat and skirt design,
is all that is necessary during the day
and seems fresh every morning with
change of waist. In summer it is
best to take also pretty cotton gown.
The jacket of the travelling dress will
probably answer for wrap in driving
An extra hat is required for church
wear, as otherwise it is considered
smarter to wear a plain hat in the
country.
The most particular attention
should be given to all the little toilet
details, such as underclothing, brush
es and combs, and the thousand and
one little ct ceteras which belong to
toilet accessories. At least one entire
set of fresh underclothes for each day
belongs in the small trunk which
should be used, bath wrapper, ana
dainty dressing sack or dressing
gown. An extra pair of boots or
shoes, evening slippers and goodly
choice of stockings also are to be ad-
ded. These do not take up much room
and add greatly to comfort.
There was an old rule in well reg
ulated households that handbag al
ways should contain night gown as
we'll as toilet articles. This is not at
all a bad idea, for luggage is often de-
tanned even in these times Of rapid
transportation, and with the gown
and brushes the traveller always is
we'll provided. Fresh stocks for the
shirt-waist often are convenient.
Several other essentials to take
along are the resolution, first to con-
tribute in any way possible toward the
entertainment Of all; secondary, not
to call upon the servants save in case
of dire necessity, since the presence
Of guests is tax enough Oh the house
hold machinery, thirdly, to be punct-
ual at meals. Guests may not be open
ly found fault with but any want
of promptness on their part is GER

For the Svelte Figure.

The tin woman who has style would
be choic in this Partisan creation,
worn at Auteuil. Who will copy it7
The skirt is round length affair
of black mousseline over rose pink
taffeta, and has a five inch hem Of
the taffeta at the bottom. The NOUS
seline is laid in fine plaits at the top
pressed in, and from the knees down
these hang in folds. This skirt is on
the princess order, the plaits being
pressed flat from the waist up some
seven inches, flaring as they go to
fit the figure and overlapping
guimpe of white lace over rose-col
orcd silk. This has high stock and
a smart little cravat bow, with long
ends Of rose colored iaffeta, the ends
widening from the top down, and
ending at the bust line This guimpe
probably had elbow sleeves; they
could not be seen, however, as the
crownine glory Of the toilet hid them.
This crr ing glory was a coat of
rose pink ;'eta, slanting in from the
shoulders to the waist line and from
there out, and so gored that it formed
deep inward-turned flute fold from
there on each side of the front, and
also in the back. There was an organ
plat in The center Y back. The up

an inch and a half from it an upward
tuning plat IN inrli deep extended
over the shoulders, down the center
back 10 the waist line, and in the front
flarcd out at the bust line to give adj
diticnaI f,,jlucSs. TIE coat fronts did
rot meet. there being fully six inches
between them. At :he bottom Of those
side pla;ts were lialf rosettes of black
moussciine, and roscttes turning to-
ward the outside, and finished by lit
tie roses made out Of the rose-colored
taffeta shirred into shape. Just above
the waist line were similar ornaments,
and folds of the black mousscline
started from the two upper rosettes,
crossed in the center, forming an x
and terminated under the two lower
rosettes. Also from the two upper
chous a scarf OF the taffeta extended
cut, crossed over the arms little be-
low the shoulders, S";ng tackled loosely
and, of course, invisibly, and the
straight across the center back.
The sleeves were moderately full
puffs, ending just below the elbows
in hands of the silk covered with tack
ed folds of mousseline.

RUNNING SORES
COVERED. Limbs
Little Girls Obstinate Case Of
Eczema - instantaneous Relief
By Cuticura Little Boys Hands
and Arms Also Were a Mass
Of Torturing Sores - Grateful
Mother Says:
"CUTICURA REMEDIES
A HOUSEHOLD STANDBY"

In reply to your letter / write you
nv experience, and you are privileged
to use it as you see fit. Last year,
after having my little girl treated by a
very prominent physician for an obsti-
nate case Of eczema, l resorted to the
Cuticura Remedies, and was so well
pleased with the almost instantaneous
relief afforded that we discarded the
physicians prescription and relied en-
tirely on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura
Ointment, and Cuticura Pills. When
we commenced with the Cuticura Rem
edies her feet and limbs were covered
with running sores. In about six weeks
we had her completely well, and there
has been no recurrence of the trouble.
ain July Of this year little boy in
our family poisoned his hands and arms
with poison oak, and in twenty-four
hours his hands and arms were mass
of torturing sores. We used only the
Cuticura Remedies, washing his hands
and arms with the Cuticura Soap, and
anointed them with the Cuticura ONT
ment, and then gave him the Cuticura
Resolvent. In about three weeks his
hands and arms healed up; SO we have
lots of cause for feeling grateful for the
Cuticura Remedies. We find that the
Cuticura Remedies are a valuable
household standby; living as we do
twelve miles from doctor, and where
it costs from twenty to twenty-five dol
lars to come up on the mountain.
