THE MAN IN the NEW SILK HAT

Oh. the jaunty staw and the toorist cap
Are all very well in their way,
And the honest derby is just the thing
For the wear Of every day.
The Panama is Al swell affair
If the kind you can crush quite fiat;
But the man who gets his moneys worth
Is the man In the new silk hat.
II is smooth and shining and black as
jet.
With the makers name inside;
1t ial insd wits satin as snowy white
As the dress of dainty bride.
1t suits the man who is tall and thin,
And the man who is short and fat,
And the crowd makes way respectfully
For the man in the new silk hat.
The college man with his coat of tan
May dance with the girls all night.
And may have his pick of the fairest
buds
For stroll in the palemoonlight;
But they all forget in fash, you bet,
His fame at the ball Or bat,
When the conquering hero comes in sight,
The man in the new silk hat.
Prosperous. elegant, up toadate.
Right in the latest style,
Crown Of the citizen well to do.
Hail to the glossy tilel
The man arrayed in the fur-lined coat,
And the man in the white crayat,
Must pocket their pride and step aside
For the man in the new silk hat.

.Lyceum Theatre

Grace Elliston who plays the role of
Shirley Rossmore in 'sThe Lion and the
Mouse" has been much commended for
the care and thought she has bestowed
upon the costumes worn by her in the
play. Although Shirley is woman of
fashion she is in no sense frivolous.
Then tendency in fashionable present
day millinery can hardly be classed as
serious so Miss Ealiston experienced
great difiiculty in securing hats that
would not do violence to Shirley's char
acteristics, creating a false impression
on the visual sense OF the auditor. AS
''The Lion and the Mouse is now in
the sixth month of its run, Miss Ellis
ton's hats have begun to show the effect
Of wear and tear. Last week she. vis-
tied a smart Fifth avenue milliner in
search Of a hat for the second act.
Unable to secure the proper shade Of
feathers she denuded the hat she had
originally worn of Its plumage so that
it might be transferred to the new one.
Explaining carefully what she desired
she left instructions to have the hat
delivered at the theatre that night To
her CONSERVATION she found on open
ing the box, that the .milliner had sent
her rakish chapeau which tilted in
a jaunty fashion over one eye. There
was nothing to do but to wear the hat.
Not only was Mr.. Breese with whom
Miss Eliston plays her second act scene
SO surprised at the change in her ap-
pearance that he almost went up" in
his lines, but the psychological influence
upon Miss Eliston was so pronounced
that she experienced great difficulty in
playing the scene in che proper manner
for as she expressed it, Il felt that in
stead Of looking like sweet young girl
wore the aspect of designing mink"
