leaving New York. The play is n dram
atization of Harold MacGrath's '"rhe
Man on the Box" Its scenes are laid
in Washington at the present day and
tell the romantic love story of a young
daredevil army officer who falls in love
with a rich and beautiful young WASH
ington society girl, ana to excite her
interest in him plans TO run away with
her without her knowledge or consent.
Tho adventures he undergoes. the situ-
atoms into which lie is forced, and the
complications which ensue are suffi-
ciently funny to KEEP the audience in
perfect gales of laughter, but no mat
ter how funny the play becomes the
intense interest Of the plot is never re-
laxed for a moment.
The Man on the Box" is an abso-
lutely clean, wholesome play. 1t IS pro-
duced with the same caro- which has
been the keynote Of the other produc-
tions which the owner of The Man on
the Box" Walter n. Lawrence, has
made.
Mr.. Dixey himself is still the same
handsome. Fascinating, magnetic Dixey
that he was when he produced "Adon.

Mrs Fiske In "Hedda Gabler." won
much praise for her work. has in tho
part Of the heroine. a light comedy
role. but she has received quite as
much praise for her work in this par
as for anything she has ever done. Miss
Marie Nordstrom, a weIl-known Wash

ant feminine role. There will be tho
usual matinees.

All the persons in the play and every
thing they say and do Is amusing.
The music. which was written by Will
liam Lorraine and J. A Raynes, is bright
and catchy and of the kind that tinkles
in memory after the hearer leaves the
theater. The chorus numbers are espee-
tally effective. They are bright and
spirited, and they combine movement and
melody. for graceful and fancitul dances

by a score OF pretty girls in strikingiy

ask for in a musical play.

1t is reported that the princi-
pie of the colored school said:
"Don't pay any attention to the
lit e newspaper comments,
they don't amount to anything"
He also accused some of the
teachers of tattling to the Cine
ter and to get even with some
whom he claimed had been Civ
ing out the truth, he proceeded
to circulate a lie touching one
of his subordinate's actions.
Such a fellow ought to be fired
instantly. We do not ask or
get any information from any
teacher and no teacher knows
what we are going to say until it
is said. We have our own way of
keeping up with the mogul.

DASTARDLY OUTRAGE.

Recently colOred woman by
name of Mary Ayles came here
from Louisiana and her husband
reports that he
gave his wife $4,000 to come
here and buy property, We are
informed that the m a n
stopped with one Pendergast
and his family and that young
Negro became infatuated with
the woman and peruaded her to
part with the money. The
husband came and there was a
row, the poor man was heart
broken and nearly crazed. Af-
ter being arrested and fined for
disturbing the peace he went
home leaving the woman to her
choice.
In our opinion it is this kind
of trouble that causes such Kill
lings as that which occurred here
recently when a husband killed
wife and her consort. The re-
gions of the damned do not con-
tain place hot enough for
such scoundrels that break up a
happy home and make life a liv-
ing hell for the bread winner.

OUR SCHOOLS

There are some teachers in
our school who are fit and COM
petent, and right here we say
that competency includes some
thing else besides being able to
pass examination. Among the
competent ones are Mrs. Flor
ence Arlington splendid teach
er of long experience and one
who is having great success in
giving her pupils the proper
training and who lays the prop.
er foundation by her life and
conduct. Mrs, Arlington taught
several years in the Ft. Smith
schools and stands at the head
of the profession. Any school
can be proud of having such a
teacher and all parents who
have the welfare of their chill
dren at heart love her. We need
her in our schools. 'rfi

is in the cuffs and in the collar. But you very
seldom see woman that buys her waists ready
made who takes the trouble to alter them. She
rejoices in having secured bargain and, forti-
fed by that consciousness, brazenly presents her
self in public with baggy cuffs that simply will
not stay where they are put, and collar which
is pinned over in the back in most disgraceful
way
And then she goes around wondering why she
isn't as stylish Sally Smith.
AS matter of fact, moreover, she has not
secured bargain. The material would in all
probability have cost her just as much as what
she paid for the waist, and besides that, if she
had bought the material and made it herself, she
would have secured thereby much betterlooking
waist
So you can that it not only aids you in
your desire to be stylish to make your clothes at
home but that you really often save money by
so doing
/ suppose you will insist that all this talk about
fit is also elementary, and that your clothes fit
you perfectly. Perhaps they do, but permit me
to say, my dear, that very few women can claim
that distinction.
But since you insist that it is elementary, /
will go and tell you something else. You must
