RuBINsTEIN.

Rubinstein, the Polish pianist whose brilliant qualities recently attracted the New York critics, comes to the Hype- rion Theatre for a single recital on Wednesday evening. He is said to be a youth of extraordinary personal mag netism.
 Whether or not young Rubenstein is. as H. E. Krehbiel wrote in his New York Tribune: "A pianistic genius of fifty years ago come to life" or not, he is unquestionably one of the most in- 'teresting personalities that Europe has sent us. Marvellous stories are told of ti1e boys musical precocity. At the mud-pie age he was transposing Brahms.
 But it is. in America that Rubinstein, will make his first extended concert tour. His success here has not been unlike his success in Europe, where with the endorsement of Saint 7Saens, Paderewski, and d'Albert he was ac- .cepted by the ultra-fashionable and ar- tistic circles of Paris.

of "Lincoln." While there was a gene ral resemblance in the three portraits, no two looked exactly alike. The World, however, stated in an article de- scriptive of the portraits that Mr Cha pins Lincoln was unquestionably the ideal Lincoln in the public mind, and spoke of his marvelously artistic work in the most glowing terms. MT. Chapin himself does not depend great deal upon his counterfeit presentment of Lincoln, but does depend rather upon his ability to reproduce the spirit and soul of the man and martyr, Aside from his unusual endowment by nature to impersonate the great emnncipator, he has given fourteen years of the most careful study of Lincoln-his traits of character and the marvellous personal ity which gave him such mastery over men. Mir. Chapin will be seen here in Lincoln" supported by pow erful company and complete stage equipment at the Hyperion Friday, February 23.

Berzac's big circus, with the unrid- able donkey, is coming to Poli's next week. A reward of $500 is offered for any one who will ride this mule. Hee flaw, as she is called, is a sister to Maud, the famous comic supplement mule who has caused so much merri- ment.
 Oracle Emmett and her company are also to be an attractive feature of the big bill. Of this fine act an exchange says:
 "A royal reception was yesterday ex- tended to buxom, brilliant Oracle Elm melt and her clever company, present ing here, forw the first time since it's elaboration, her comedy, Mrs. Mur- phys Second Husband" quite the cleverest production which has bid for and gained success in the vaudeville field, not only in America. but in Aus tralia, South Africa and England. Miss Emmett's unctious, graceful and natural impersonation of an Irish American lady shows a study of char acter deeper than is expected from vaudeville stars, and proclaims her a true artiste,"

FIRST CARLOAD EVER SHIPPED.

So Writes Massachusetts Factory to
 the Gamble-D Desmond Company in Re-
 gard to Trade Sale of Enamel Ware.
 The Gamble-Desmond company an- nounces a rather unique event in to- days issue of the Journal and Courier trade sale. This sale is rather a broader merchandising event than is usual in things of this nature, and moreover it comes at time when most stores settle down to the outward des- uetude of getting in the spring goods,
 The Gamble-Desmond company while preparing for the season ahead his also co-operated with some of the greatest manufacturers of the country to join them in arranging this sale for the ad- vancement and betterment of trade generally between seasons.
 A store like the Gamble-Desmond Co., yields a most effective influence as a quickener of market conditions be- cause of it's power as an outlet or dis tributing factor, and by such orders as are given to conduct a sale like this planned for to-day a factory can be kept busy for days.
 For example there is an order for the carload of enameled ware from the Ma tional Enameling & Stamping Co. in Massachusetts which, upon filling for this sale, the company wrote:
 Tt may be of interest to you to know that you nave bought the first carload of enameled ware ever shipped to the state of Connelricut, that is to retail house, and bespeak for you the largest and grandest sale ever held in the state. Certainly your trade will appreciate your endeavors to save them money. Thanking you for the order,

MAY IRWIN.

 Rennold Wolf, in the New York Tele- graph of November 8, 1904, says: May Irwin is one of those fortunate players to whom the quality of a play is a mat ter of secondary importance.
 "Of all the actresses. now before the public. in the role of star, she, perhaps, better than any other is entitled to give her name prominence over that of her vehicle.
 Tn times agone she has. appeared in several nonsensical sketches-for they were nothing but that-which, minus herself, would neither have deserved nor received more than passing com neent, and yet these same sketches have added to her exchequer and enhanced the general enjoyment of mankind.
 With this as preface it is not rash- ness to state that Miss Irwin, in Mrs. Black is Back, scored hit at the Bi- jou Theatre last night. This jolly, ebullierit woman who is sixteen ounces of personality to the pound, was the Mrs. Black of the title, and the remain der of the cast were Back merely background.
 For two seasons Miss Irwin has been in permanent retirement of her neatest jokes-and she has been missed. The really funny women on the Ameri- can stage are limited Perhaps you would count them all on the fingers of one hand. And when a true comedi- enne is found she deserves all the fos- tering encourag agement We can give her.
 "The reception rendered Miss Irwin last night on dler first entrance must ', have convinced her of the wisdom of making these annual farewell appear ances.
