next week. comes with the expressed
appreciation of the patrons OF the house
The fame of the play places its pre-
s~entation here in the light of a. for
tunate event. 1t is admittedly a drama
of extraordinary force and originality,
and the sweeping success 1t has at
tanned throughout Europe the last
three years, and in America the last
two. establishes 1t in the front rank
of successes.
Henry Bernstein, tie author, is re-
garded one of the master minds OF
modern stagecraft. and the critics VIII
have sat in Judgment on THE Thief
pronounce the play his masterpiece. Ir
1.-The Thief" Bernstein tells h story
of a theft committed mysteriously dur
ing a fashionable house entertainment
and in the unraveling of the plot ane
unmasking OF the thief he exercises al
the dexterity and skill that the idea
dramatic genius might bring into prac'
tise. THE Thief" is called a study il
suspended interest and prolongedIes'
citement, and. never has an ~audienaf
been assembled that has not waited
b~reathlessly until the final curtain
falls. To the more profound student o
the theatre Bernstein succeeds by hi

Mrs. Alfred !. DUPONT from whom she

WITH BUTTONS AND BRAID
Pretty ornamentstion For Gowns Of

Pretty ornamentation For Gowns Of
the Season.
Nine out of every ten garments FOR
outdoor wear have buttons or braid
aud often both as ornamentation. But
tons are supposed TO be rather useful
adjuncts to ones garments. but the
real usefulness Is not so important as
the ornamental effect they produce.
All kinds Of buttons are employed. but
the favored ones Just now are the large
fancy ones carved or made Of jet with
many facets OF Of finely wrought bone.
Indeed. some Of these large buttons
might well pass FOR jewelry.
Crocheted buttons OF heavy saddler's
silk are wrought TO match different
costumes. Others are braided in a
very close design. which leaves next
TO nothing OF the foundation to be
seen. Cut jet buttons are showy and
dressy. but belong by right only on
smooth aud elegant fabrics. such as
broadcloth and all such firm bodied
material. and on the velutinas. These
velvets are In for another year of
wide popularity, and among the new

richness in folds aud Is to be used for
handsome outdoor costumes, heavily
braided in soutache. mingled with the
other and new fancy braids. Scarcely
garment Is called finished unless II
is ornamented somewhere with some
OF the new braids. Each season sees
new and more exquisite designs IN
them. and they appear 90 be the only
thing save beading that adds 60 vel'
vet.
Cheviots in novel fancies and chev.

tunes for the season. Chevlot, like
the poor. is always with us. but varies

A Trait That Bands Them as Unsoe-
liable and Abrupt.
What a complicated thing Is the
character Of the Londoner, out of
pure shyness he becomes disagreeably
abrupt. out Of pure fear OF intrusion he
becomes unsociable. A number OF un-
acquainted men in the same tramway
car will never think of entering into
as they would anywhere
else in the world. Silently they leave
the car as they entered IL. And yet Il
does not seem natural 20 mo that they
should not prefer to converse But
they are afraid 20 intrude; besides,
they have not been introduced"
Proper introduction IS one Of the
characteristics OF the Londoner In
Germany when a man enters a private
room containing people he does not
know OF If he sits down at a table
outside a rcstaurant-in fact, when
ever he comes IN touch with a stran-
ger--he will make his bow and an
nouce his name. He Will introduce
himself. Then both viii chat like old
acquaintance. But II Is ten 10 one
that neither OF them caught mum
bled name OF the other. nor did they
care. To both of them their meeting
has been an episode 20 be forgotten tho
very next second. And Il not infre-
Iquently hapens that a man will turn
TO some friend. asking; 'Dld you see
me talk TO that man2 who IS he? He
mentioned his name. but did not
quite catch t."
Now, In England 70 walk into a
room where there is a private gather
ing and TO go around from one to an
other introducing yourself would as
I see, be called bad manners. The Eng
lishman wants to be introduced by a
third person, and 1t seems that the
third person viii introduce the other
two only if he thinks they would ac-
ltually like TO know each other. Then.
however. the name Is not only num-
bled or mentioned. but grappled with.
The two men at once impress that
name upon their minds. associate the
person with the name and forget
neither the one nor the other. An in

an episode to me 10 be over and done
with the next second. but always the
beginning Of an actual friendship. And
where friendship is not likely to ensue
an introduction Is left aside.-London
