AUDIENCE CHARMED
 BY MISS THURSTON

When Frederick Paulding, who is
 starring this season with Miss Ade-
 laide Thurston in The Woman's
 Hour," which captivated the audience
 at the Elks Theater last night, pro-
 duced and staged that up-to-date American comedy he scored a com
 plete triumph in dramatic way. As
 the program tells us, the play was
 written and staged by Mir. Paulding
 expressly for Miss Thurston. It was evidently offered the theater going public to give them an opportunity of seeing Miss Thurston, as we'll as the
 author, at their best.
 There have been many excellent at- fractions and few inferior productions at the Elks Theater this season, but none were more thoroughly enjoyed than the presentation of last evening. It is beautiful love story with beautiful ending. Not love story of the stage. but the deep human pas sion. that takes hold of each man or woman once in his or her life and even though unhappy, it is possessed
 of, as Tom Moore describes ''the scent of the roses" It deals with the type and conditions of American so- ciety as exists in New York City to- day. It is comedy in the sense that it exploits and satirizes in good natured way the failings. foibles and follies of the butterflies" Of the ultra smart set.
 "The Woman's Hour. is play of tremendous interest. The dialogue is
 brilliant and beautiful. Its repartee , is superb. The talk is at all times the talk of clever people, and clever people will understand it. It is an
 admirable character study of men and women. The action moves always forward. The interest is invariably sustained. The purpose of the plot is always deceptive, to further the ends of jealous woman, one who is des- perately in love with the man of her choice, but who is unwilling to sur render to her infatuations. The story might be told in line.. Last nights production was magnificently present ed, artistically staged and costumed. Miss Thurston as Hester Temple" was study of conflicting emotions. From the moment she felt the clutch of the jealous influence she became a delightful embodiment of the best methods of acting. Her emotional scenes were never overdone, but re- flected the undercurrent which car ried the part. Miss Thurston is a finished actress.
 MT. Paulding shared the honors equally with her Having written the
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1908-12-10

play himself, Mir. Paulding seemed to
 realize the exactness of his manner
 and his acting won him much ap-
 plause. But the actor author was not selfish. He provided one other small Ter triumph for Miss Caroline New comb, in the character Maggie Tar by" Miss Temples maid Her lines are difficult, but she made the best of them. The other members of the cast were all that were required.
 A brief synopsis is necessarily un- just yet justly necessary. Henry Tem- pie a Western millionaire, comes east to visit a scheming woman who claims to be. her aunt and tells her that she owns the place where, in reality, she is living on the bounty of one Roger Daneway, who is not es- pecially fond Of women in general. He discovers tts deception but submits; the millionaire arrives; she is all that he believes woman should be, and, in brief, they are mutually attracted and Trouble ensues, brought about by the aforesaid scheming wo- man and yet another woman who is in love with Roger, but is unscrupu- lous and far from seraphic. True love then runs its customary rugged course with the usual happy ending or ante-climax--wedding bells.
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1908-12-10
TARIFF LEGISLATION.

Congress gets down to work this week, and the general prediction is
 that tariff revision is going to be one
 of the chief features of the session, and it is thought that the battle will center chiefly on the steel schedule.
 That seems to be the opinion of the Wall street financiers, according to Henry Clews, because of the fact that Mir. Carnegie has said the steel duties are unnecessary and many American manufacturers wish to buy their raw materials in shape of steel in the cheapest market. More or less hesi- tation is sure to accompany ,tariff az itation, but the derangement to busi- ness will be much less than on form CT occasions, because many of our in- dustries are much less dependent up- on the tariff than formerly and there are many that would be positively stimulated by gaining cheaper raw materials and wider markets under adequate tariff revision. In any case there is no serious disturbance to bus mess in sight at present arising from new tariff legislation. The business outlook is slowly but surely imprev- ing and the main difficulty with the stock market is that it has discount ed such improvement probably too far in advance, hence it is now trying to resist the natural reactionary tend encies.
