False CoIored Angels.

The angels are wearing false colors, though not by choice In a Boston shop you will see rows and rows of photographic angels, all m mono chrome. and when you select one, you may have it tinted any color you say Angels who have for centuries been wearing creations by Botticelli or Fra Angelicc think this great liberty. Not even the gain to culture mitigates their indignation. Daily they grow more furious It is no longer safe to be out after dark because of the angels.
 As betwen the angles and the col orists, the clerk sides with the former Indeed. the question arises whether it is the decent thing ever to color a photograph. The most inspired photographer in Boston says not and bids the question be seated. But the clerk. while bewailing the false or shabby or inartistic tinting of photo- graphs. would not be so dogmatic. He recognizes cases in which masterpieces of ''the new photography might be greatly improved by paint if laid on an inch or two deep.
 There remains, however, another party to the quarrel-i. e.. the Old Masters, who find their coloring very unceremoniously transformed. You see now why they worked in distemper It was because they foresaw what the photograph -daubers had in store for them.-Boston Transcript.

THE AUDITORIUM.

That the public appreciate the efforts of the management in providing such entertaining amusement was shown by the way each act was applauded, the songs and pictures coming in for their share. In order to accommodate the Jorge holiday crowds, the management have decided to give an extra perform ance in the afternoon starting at 1.30 and running continuously until 5. The usual holiday prices will prevail. Laypo and Benn, a pair & sensational comedy acrobats, furnish enough fun and amusement for circus in their Tipping the Hops. Talk about dancing, The Yalto Duo begin where others leave off and their whirlwind finish is a hummer. Flossie Benjamin, the" comedienne, wins favor with her very original makeup and songs and to hear her sing Cubanola Glide is ragtime personified. It goes without saying that the O'Donnell Bros. are a hit; they are in every way duplicating their suc- cess of last season. Lillian Morelle will sing In Sunny Italy and others. Pic lures? The best ever! Sparkling comedy, thrilling drama, beautiful scenery. They're all here.

BREED THEATER.
The Cowboy Millionaire, Wild West
 Thriller.

What is conceded to be the best wild western picture ever made is on exhibition for the remainder of the week at the Breed theater and is en- titled The Cowboy Millionaire, it being a picture story harmonizing the fast passing scenes of the great far west with glimpses of the luxurious ease of the American city life. A hilarious cowboy spending a half holiday in Circle City, Ida, receives a telegram from eastern relatives telling him of the death of an uncle who has left him mediately starts for the east and set and, having married, decides to send and wake it up, he paying all the ex- penses. They arrive in true western style, with bucking bronchos, pitching mustangs, pitching steers, and proceed to arouse the little town. The "boys'' are taken yachting, to see a melodrama where one of them takes exception to the villains actions, and the town is pretty wide awake before long and the millionaire's wife pleads with him to send the "horrid things" back, and they are finally despatched homeward in a palatial cafe car, but the fun does not cease, for every minute is filled with exciting incidents, and the whole picture is a marvelously realistic pie ture of the real good old fashioned west.
 The balance of the bill is of especial merit, and contains some surprises among the dramatic lines.
