MUSICAL COMEDY
FOR MONDAY NIGHT
Large Chorus of Handsome
Girls.

Richard Carries splendid play and
the most popular of musical comedies,
THE Mayor of Toxic" will be seen
Monday night at Glover's Opera house.
THE Mayor of Toxic" has been adj
vertised by certain eastern admirers
of the piece as being a comic opera.
While the term would have need of
considerable elasticity in order to
apply to THE Mayor of Toxic" the
fact that there is more plot and more
continuous flow of pleasing music
than usually appears i ma musical
comedy is undeniable. The question
of exact classification however is not
a vital one 1t suffices that the piece
is said to be bright, clean in tone
and manner, entertaining and well
presented in its entirety, a show
suited for an evenings pleasant pas
time
Mr. John L. Kearney, the well
known and popular comedian, as
sumes the part of Marcus Orlando
Kidder, theatrical magnate, who
tried to set the world on fire by US
ing water. His many complications
as a busted manager of Kidder's
Komiques in Japan has never been
surpassed as a fun maker. The sup
porting company is very strong, both
in merit and numbers and the Choir
us contains handsome young women
who were especially selected in New
York for the various parts they as
sumo in the comedy.

WROTE WOMAN'S

DRESS EXPENSE FOR
FASHIONABLE WOMEN
Outlay of $4,000 a Year
the Lowest.

NEW YORK, Feb. 7.-(SpeciaD-
A reporter who interviewed a leader
of Paris fashions recently on the
cost to a woman of being we'll dress
ed in that city was told that 100000 a
year was about the lowest limit of
possibility With $4,000 and good
taste any woman could make a show
ing.
You see she must have so much
fine old lace for her underwear, and
she must renew it SO often" said the
authority, that a great deal TO money
is consumed on this item.
"A really fashionable woman can
hardly wear anything but lace trim
med corsets They cost 5000 to $3.50
apiece and they can't be relied upon
to hold the shape for more than a
month or so.
Then consider the item of stock
ings Even for common wear they
cost S. a pair; they ~must cost ten
times that, and there's no wear in
them. Of course wear is an element
that woman who is really trying to
dress herself can't give a second
thought to anyway.
Dresses cost money when you re-
feet that woman in the swim needs
from thirty to fifty of them in the
course of a year, but I'm not sure that
her furs do not cost even more. You
see, she must have at least six
sets. The woman who would wear
the same cloak in the daytime call
ing and at night going to the opera
or the same in her automobile that
she would when travelling by rail
could not expect to have any status
as a well dressed woman.
Hats, too, are important A wo-
man must have such a variety-satin
lace, fur, feather, and flower hats
large ones and small ones. The hat
should express the occasion, as il
were-a sombre spirit of devotion OF
joyous citation of mundane affec-
| ton.
How much thought they need! Ant
you really can't do better than from
5000 to $3.50 apiece. I have heard o.
hats as low 1915 to $40, but l car
hardly believe in their reality. A
least, one can imagine the pityins
smile of the saleswoman as sh,
shows them.

BANK CANNOT
FIND DEPOSITORS

NEW YORK, Feb. 7.-(SpeciaD-
Knickerbocker Trust Company de-
positors to the number of more than
500, with more than a half million
dollars to their credit in the institu-
ton, are lost, strayed, or stolen. No
less than sixty canvassers have been
at work for weeks trying, with little
result, to find these men and wo-
men.
eve have discovered vacant lots
and stopeyards at the addresses of
some of these people carried on the
books,S said Herbert L. Satteriee,
counsel for the Parsons committee,
which is struggling to- rehabilitate
the concern. 1T is impossible to say
what will become of the money if
these people are not found"
The men who are now at work to
put the company back into the world
of finance can offer little explanation
Of the remarkable fact that so many
persons of some means have practi-
cally dropped out of sight.
In one case a patron to whom a
certificate of deposit for more than
$4,000 had been issued in 1884 never
had been heard of from the day he
placed his money with the concern
He never had drawn cent of inter-
est, and the deposit was practically
doubled. Through all the notorfety
that was given to the Knickerbocker
after its suspension he was not
heard from Yet canvassers ran him
down and found him to be a wealthy
man, living retired life in Connecti-
cut He had so much money that he
had forgotten his deposit.

WOMAN DESIGNS
NEW STYLE AIRSHIP
Believes twill Meet War
Specifications.

NEW YORK, Feb. 7-(SpeciaD-
Miss. E. T. Todd, a gray-haired wo-
man who has an aero studio, today
exhibited to newspaper men model
of an aeroplane which, she asserts,
is a complete success. She has
constructed, she says, a full-sized ma
chine, which will be given a test
within the next fortnight. The big
machine, she says, will carry two
men.
AS to the model, it consists of two
superimposed planes, but, unlike most
other airships, these are curved in
stead of being boxed. The machine,
therefore, looks more like bird than
most of its predecessors. ~The basket
carrying the motor and men, is hung
on a bar between the boxes on each
side, much as the body of a bird
might be conceived to hang between
its wings in flight.
The real aeroplane will be forty
two feet from tip to tip, about eight
feet high, and not over seven feet
from stem to stern. This latter dimen-
sion, coupled with the readiness with
which the land wheels may be turned
around, will enable the machine to
be carried along a road sideways
without taking it to pieces. And the
operation of folding for packing on a
single army wagon is estimated to
take but two minutes and five sec
onds.
Miss Todd did not submit plans to
the War Department in it's recent
contest, but she has taken all the
specifications of that contest into
account in her latest venture, and is
sure that it will meet them all
