THE TWO R0MEOS.
Mrs. Siddons' Opinion Of David Carried
and Spraneer Barry.

Mrs. Siddons' Opinion Of David Garriek
and spranssr Barry.
David Garrick and Spranger Barry
were both playing Romeo at the same
time in London. Barry played 1t at
Drury Lane on the Monday. and Gar
rick played it the next night at Covent
Garden, and the town was divided as
70 which was the greater Romeo-in
fact, there was quite a great excite
ment about it. and they acted it upon
such different lines and with such mar
yelously different conceptions that the
people argued the case as to which
Shakespeare intended. The fact Is that
Shakespeare intended 1t to be acted
well. and II one mans temperament
suited it best to act In that way II
would do for another temperament the
other way.
So they asked Mrs. Siddons, who was
the Juliet alternately with the same
Romeo. which she considered better of
the two, and she said:
1T is difficult to say. They are both
wonderfully great. but viii tell you
how they impress me in the balcony
scene. In the balcony scene Garrick
seems so eager. so intense and so full
Of fire and spirit that I'm afraid he'll
jump up in the balcony to me. and Bar
~ is so lovable and fascinating that
I'm afraid shall have to jump down
from the balcony to him."

Five Dollar Soap.

''It Is the proper thing to have your
soap made to order" said a masseur.
IAN the great actresses, all the great
nilli0aaires' wives and many quite Or
dinaly people have their soap made to
order. paying for 1t anything from so
cents to S. a cake.
This green soap costs IS cake. It
is made to order in Paris for beauti-
full actress. Note her crest and mono
gram in gold on each green cake.
The soap is made not Of ordinary
soap fat, but Of spermaceti, the clear
fluid which fills the hollow skull Of the
cachalot or sperm whale. 1t is per-
fumed with ess bouquet. one of the
costliest perfumes going. 1t is, you
see, pretty. Its odor Is delightful, and It
yields a perfect lather. Even at that 1t
doesn't seem to me worth 10 cents a
wash. but so, the actress tells me, its
cost works out."-New Orleans Times

PEOPLE DISLIKE
CLASSICAL music
This Col. EIIery Thinks Is the
Cause of Poor Attendance
In Richmond.
APPEARANCE A FAILURE.
CONCERTS GIVEN IN THIS CITY
BY FAMOUS BAND WERE GOOD
BUT PUBLIC DID NOT SHoWITS
APPRECIATION.

Col. Charming ElIery, head Of the
musical organization known as the
Ellery band, stated yesterday after
noon, he almost had lost confidence
in the public, when 1t comes to appre-
citation of classical music. The col
onel's reception in this city was very
disheartening. He was so disturbed
by the circumstance that he took oc-
casion to call attention to the fact at
the afternoon concert. He declared
that it seems 1t may become absolute
ly necessary for his band to begin
playing rag time" In order to be re-
garded as successful by the public.
From the remarks of Col. Ellery, it
may bs deemed he would regard a
band of talented musicians that play
ed rag time music as having lost
sight entirely of the love for the class
1acl He referred to the fact other of
the important bands of the country
have recognized the demand and now
mix the classical. rag time" and pop
ular" In their programs for each con-
cert.
Saturday afternoon the attendance
at the coliseum was so small that no
concert was given. Saturday evening
crowd OF perhaps $50 persons was
present and about the same number
was on hand Sunday afternoon and
evening. Various explanations were
offered for this circumstance in this
city, which has obtained a reputation
rs being a musical center. If the
reputation were judged according to
the attendance at the Ellery band con-
certs, there must have been a proba-
bility Of false pretense somewhere.
The band played strictly classical pro-
grams. The organization is composed
of about fifty talented musicians and
Its productions are equal to those of
any of the celebrated bands that have
appeared in this city. Unlike Sousa.
Creatore and the other band leaders,
Gel. Ellery requires his musicians to
remain with the classical in their pro-
grams. He believes it is lack of ap-
probation on the part of the public for
this class of music. that accounts for
the local reception.

Books For Wedding Gifts.

Books For Wedding GIFTS.
Mrs. Asquith, who is Just now In the
limelight in England as the wife Of
the prime minister, always gives books
as wedding gifts.
1t makes no difference how illustri-
Gus the bride may be, she gets book
from the famous Mrs. Asquith. Every
one In London who follows her ca
prices is now following her choice of
wedding gifts.
No matter who started it, it Is a
good thing for any one to take up and
stick to. 1t is easy and not costly to
choose a certain thing as a gift and
never depart from 1t.
II you cannot afford silver and gold
make 1t your maxim to give book or
an edition of books on all occasions.
1t makes gift giving half the trouble
that it is when you rush around town
to try to get something that may suit
each bride.
Whether or not the couple to be mar
ried cares for books is not the ques-
ton. Every one should care for books.
and every one must have them. II
they are not read they are decorative.
Don't make the mistake Of sending a
volume Of well known poems. 1t is not
polite. You must suppose that every
bride has such literature.
If you can send sets of books, Kip.
ling is always a good choice. A set Of
Thackeray IL well bound Is always &C.
ceptable. Hawthorne Is an excellent
choice, and uniform volumes on Ameri-
can history are good.

THE PARACHUTE.
Leonardo da vinci Was tho First Ons
to Suggest II.

Leonardo da vinci Was tho First 0ns
to Suggest II.
Credible accounts exist Of an English
Benedictlne monk, Oliver of Malmes-
bury, in the eleventh century having
tried to fly by precipitating himself
from the height of a tower with the
assistance Of wings attached to his
arms and his feet. 1t is said that, hav-
ing gone along little way, he fell and
broke his legs. He attributed his acct
dent to failure to provide his appara-
tus with tail, which would have help
ed preserve his equilibrium and made
his descent a gentler one.
In the sixteenth century Leonardo da
Vinci first demonstrated that a bird,
which is heavier than the air, sustains
Itself, advances in the air. by render
Ing the fluid denser where 1t passes
than where 1t does not pass" In order
10 fly 1t has to Ak its point Of support
on the air. It's wings in the descending
stroke exert pressure from above
down, the reaction Of which from be-
low up forces the center Of gravity of
Its body to ascend at each instant to
the height at which the bird wishes to
maintain 1t. Some sketches which have
come down to us prove that Leonardo
occupied himself, like Oliver Of Malmes-
bury, with giving man the power to fly
by the assistance Of wings suitably
fixed to the body.
We owe to Leonardo also the inven-
tion of the parachute, which he de-
scribed in the following terms: "If a
man had a pavilion each side of which
was fifteen braces wide and twelve
braces high he might cast himself from
amy height whatever without fear Of
Hanger" 1t may be said, too. of Leo
nardo da vinci that he was the first to
suggest the idea OF the screw propeller.

Producing Money.

Any married woman can perform
this trick successfully. The directions
are very simple. First make sure that
your husband is sound asleep and that
his trousers are carelessly hanging over
the foot of the bed. Tiptoe into the
room and quietly confiscate the trou-
sers and then softly sneak into the
dining room. Hold the trousers about
two feet above the table and with the
thumb and forefinger take hold of the
bottom Of each pocket, holding the
pocket with the mouth pointing to-
ward the table.
You will be surprised to see the vast
amount of coin that will Immediately
appear on the table out Of nothing.
You know it is out of nothing, for
just before retiring your husband told
you he hadn't a cent in his clothes.
After the pockets are entirely emptied
put back the pool checks. keys and
other debris that fell out with the
money and replace the trousers over
the foot Of the bed. If he catches you
just say you were fixing up a rent, and
then you will have him guessing Ell
Their that you refer to tear In his gar
ment or a deal with the landlord.
