"PRINCE KARI" IS
CLEVERLY PLAYED
GreenrOOm Club TriumphS in
First Night PreSenta-
ton Of Drama

prince Karl" was cleverly played
by the S-ecnroom Dramatic Club at
the New Century Club last night.
While not so funny as "The Magis-
trate," nor with the strong feeling Of
"Rafies." there was plenty Of mirth
and chance for dramatic acting, and
a chance was afforded to all the cast
to show their talent. The plot Is not
marked by action, but the dialogue Is
very funny and was pleasurable to
the audience.
Briefly. Prince Karl Won Ahrmien,
whose ancestors have unkindly gam
bled away his fortune. Is reduced TO
wedding an American widow Of 65
years, and supposedly wealthy. AT the
hotel. the prince discovers that the
widow depends upon her daughter-in-
law for funds. and that the daughter
in-law is the true wealthy widow.
Further complications ensuing by the
discovery that this handsome young
widow is also the woman he loves, the
prince pretends suicide to escape that
80 old woman" and his hotel bill.
Reappearing as courier I'm the en-
ploy Of the young widow. he wins her
love. aud I'm spite Of the Vaccinations
Of two Chicago lawyers. finally wins
her. but not until she Is aware that
he Is the prince.
Christopher /. Wards German ac-
cent was perfection. and his acting
splendid. II Is undoubtedly the best
of the many clever character inter
protations he has given.
Miss Isabelle Wales. as the elder
widow. was klttenish and coy. and
her makeup and acting were works
Of art. Miss Katherine Tallman. the
younger widow. and Miss GLADYS
Jackson as the girl from Vassar. were
vivacious and beautiful. The cos.
tunes worn by all the women were

PUSHING and PuIIinu.

II has been wisely observed that
most operations can be more efficiently
performed by drawing them along
through their proper course than by at
tempting to push and jam them
through. just as It is much easier TO
pull rope than It is TO push It. There
are probably not many persons who
have tried TO push a rope. but very
many have attempted things almost as
peryerse. Ina many manufacturing es-
Establishments. for example. there may
be seen numerous examples OF men
wasting large part Of their energy
endeavoring 90 move heavy pieces OF
work upon small trucks. pushing and
laborlng in the excrtion Of effort. a

SPRING GOWNS
FOR The WOMEN
JaCOby Store Shows Elegant
Line Of Wear for Fashion
able Dresses

Of wonderful weayes and exquisite
cOlorings. with perfection of fit, and
with the artistic lines that betray the
workmanship of the best tailors, with
all that is newest and most distin-
guished in styles, the advance showing
of women's spring suits, cloaks, and
dresses by Louis Jacoby, at No. ga
226 Market street is an unequalled
opportunity for Wilmington women to
study distinctive and authoritative
spring fashions. The Jacoby suits are
Just a little different" every woman
says, as soon as she has seen them.
Their superiority over ordinary suits
lies in their tailoring, and their fit.
Women find that no alterations are
necessary; any size woman can find
a suit there that fits like a glove.
Crowds Of women we're studying the
beautiful display in Jacoby's show
window this morning. Noteworthy is
a suit of dark blue serge, with the
new hipless effect in the skirt, the
habit back, the strap trimmings, and
the short, natty coat with sailor col
lar, wide revers with rich embrOid-
cry, and also the habit back in the
coat. There is another suit of soft,
grayish green checks, and there are
several suits of delicate, but thorough
~ practical tans and grays, all show
ing the fashionable straight lines, low
tastenings, narrow cut, and band and
button trimmings that are being sent
out by the great tailoring houses this
season. The useful long coat is still
good form, and follows the suits in
general effect. All the lines are plain,
but exquisitely modelled. One pleas
ing effect is in the brightly colored
satin linings-red. green or old rose,
that come with many suits.
On the second floor Of the store,
there are over $50 suits to choose
from, and the store cordially well
comes Wilmington women to visit the
display. SO artistic are the garments,
that IL is a treat to any woman to
see these revelations of beauty. In
particular, there are two white serge
suits that are visions of delight. One
is richly trimmed with white soutache
braid in elaborate design, with collar
and pipings Of peacock blue and green
satin. The second has pearl buttons.

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.
Conditions Are Certainly Improving
Steadily II Not Rapidly.

Dun's generalizes the trade situa-
ton of a week which has seen the
end of a period of commercial uncer-
tainty beginning early in 1910:
Though progress toward normal
conditions Of business activity is slow.
it is steady. In this progress tbs.
iron and steel trade Is taking the
lead and its gain Is so notable as TO
promise we'll for the other branches
Of industry. The percentage Of pro-
duction to capacity is continually in
creasing, and the evidences of expan-
sion not only in finished products but
I'm pig iron multiply in such a way
as to have a favorable effect on busi-
ness sentiment. The important rate
decisions bring to an end a period IF
uncertainty that has prevailed since
the spring Of 1910. While these favor
manufacturers ana merchants I'm all
sections Of the country except the
Southwest and may result in a tenn
porary curtailment of railroad inn
provement and extension, their final
outcome should be an expansion OF
industrial aud mercantile activity
beneficial to carriers and shippers
alike. The conditions for both cotton
and winter wheat crOOs are favorable
especially since the heavy rainfall in
the South and Southwest The recent
readlustments IN prices OF important
food products, the change for the bet
ter in the foreign trade, the easier
conditions in the money market and
the active outlook for building opera
lions serve also to increase the more
optimistic feeling which prevails IN
spite of the fact that some Of the
factors that have retarded business
