The DEVILS Auction,

The name Of Charles H. Yale in con-
nection with great scenic productions is
SO widely famous that the coming of
the Gath edition of his Everlasting
Devils Auction" to the Augusta OPP
era House is awaited with considerable
interest by many thcatre-goers.
Manager Yale has the faculty of re-
tanning general features and special
ones that have always proven a strong
and steady attraction. To this he adds
from year to year such adjuncts as are
in accord with the imperceptible, but
none the less certain shifting of public
aste.
Mr.. Yale claims that the Devils
Auction" is the Oldest in name vet the
newest in point of novelty, and this can
well be substantiated in this-the cath
edition of this famous spectacle, as ev-
erything is new from the time the cur
tain rises on the first act until il is

"Nan Patterson"

The above was the title of the drama
presented by the Maude Hillman Stock
Co. at the Opera house Friday even
ing and as on Thursday evening, the
company was greeted by large audi
ehce.
AS might be- expected the drama had
for its inception the Patterson Young
tragedy, and many of its details are
used in the working out of the plot,
but the writer of the drama has in
terwoven in the four acts which are
required to tell the story enough fun
to brighten up the dark places, and
the production as a whole is about of
the average.
AS far as the work of the company
went it met with the approval of the
audience. Miss Hillman as FAMINE
MatteSon," was acceptable and her
support was good. The specialties
We're of the same excellent quality as
on the preceding evening The Miller
brothers in acrObatic work, Yackley &
Bunnell. musical comedy artists, and
Baker and Houston in comic songs and
dances were all right, and won many
eEcores.
The company will close it's engage
ment today, with the above drama for
a matinee and The Great Buffalo
Tragedy" for the evening performance.

Never was underwear so dainty nor

ciennes is so satisfactory.
1t would really pay to take a few
lessons In tying bows. Ribbon bows
furnish up costumes wonderfully.
The three chief stones of the sea-
son are turquoise, amethyst and the
lighter sapphires. This is true of the
imitation gems as well
Renaissance lace is very much
used for both cloaks and gowns. And
truly there could be nothing simpler
and handsomer than this.
Butterfly bows in pale ribbons are
correct for night dresses and every
maid should have box of bows for
all sorts of occasions, as knots and
loops and ribbon bands are a neces-
sity in these beauty-loving days.
One very handsome French coat
was made with lace, circular ruffles of
chiffon, buttons and handsome en-
broidery, through which gIiste1ed

satin. The inner lining was of bro
cade.
Among the lace accessories are
sists of collars and cuffs of daintiest
embroidery. The collars are made with
round yokes and deep cuffs Another
pretty set is made with a small round
yoke for the collar and deep cuffs;
the material is organdie, with edging
and insertion of Irish lace.

her own experiences with her rosery
in the grounds of Roseneath Castle.
Queen Alexander is also devoted to
flowers and is said to love white
roses, lilies and violets best. Her
pleasure in them is not limited to
mere walks in the garden or admira-
ton of the blooms gathered by the
gardeners for decoration. Among 9th
er royal ladies who find charm and
solace in flowers is the Empress
Eugene, who in the palmy days of her
splendor used often to be called "the
Empress of Flowers" She would
stop her carriage at the Madeline
steps in Paris, where the flower mar
ket is held, and getting down, would
pick her way among the market wo-
mems baskets, piling the front seat
of the carriage high with lilies and
violets. Flowers have since consoled
her in the sadness and solitude of her
life in exile, for they are friends which
never change.

The female department Of the prison

The life of Cassie will be a second

exercised in the open yard within the

roomy than the rest and has the adj
