The TheQterS

college Days." a version of the ia
nous farce, "Charley's Aunt" opened
a half week engagement at the Murray
last night.
At it's best or worst this is a droll
and amusing farce.
It's story is too we'll known to go
over-the masquerading Of a college
boy as the AUNT" of Charley" whose
non-appearance in the role of chaper-
one caused the latter and several of
his friends much embarrassment and
who resorted to this makeshift to pre-
serve the proprieties-and was put
over with success by the players at
the Murray since the audience howled
with glee during the continuance Of
the three acts.
Aside from "Charley's Aunt" taken
by Jack Lewis, around which the &C
ton and interest naturally centers
and which was played with much far
cical eclat by Mr.. Lewis, the best bit
of histrionics of the evening was that
of Mr.. Wolcott, whose impersonation
of an old man of certain type was
capitally done and whose surprising
skill in concealing his vocal identity
by the substitution of a different reg
lister was an exhibition of theatric
finessee complimentary to it's medium.

Bull D|NGS ERECTED
Controller Has Issued PA
Permits.

Building in Richmond is not on the
wane. as is evidenced by the fact that
PA building permits have been issued
SO far this year, by the city con-
troller.
These permits vary from $50 to
$4,000. The total valuation of the
improvements to be made is given on
the books of the city controller at
$154, 140.
The improvements made this year,
including new houses and additions,
are scattered over all sections of the
city. A large number of new houses
are being erected in the east end, be-
tween North E and Main streets; in
West Richmond between the National
Road and Richmond avenue; and the
south end south of E street
The building up of the suburbs and
new additions to the city is progress
ing with rapidity. Beallview and Ben
ton Heights have several new houses,
and the south and east sections added
to the city are being built up.

INFLUENCE OF THE EAST
IN NEW EVENING FASHIONS
Small Trains on All Gowns Lingerie for
Evening -Veilings on Shoulders
The Swathing Draperies.

The influence Of the east is conspicuous
In evening fashions just now. The swath-
ing draperies, the marvellous color blend
ings. the jeweled embroideries and me-
tallic tissues, the frank revelation OF
natural figure lines. the picturesque head
dresses and simple natural coiffures-all
OF these bespeak the strong oriental in
fluence on present modes.
Never in the history Of woman were
such fabrics used for ordintry wear; such
satin-soft enough to draw through your
lingering, yet having a quality that
makes them fall into sumptuous folds
when they are caught up in the hand;
such chiffons and nets. heavy with bead
embroideries; such laces-shadow and
chantilly and venise patterns worthy Of
becoming heirlooms; such brocades. Of
interviewer gold and emerald, or sap
phire, or ruby. Some of these gorgeous
stuffs cost up to SIS or so a yard, and even
for ordinary satin, soft and rich enough
to take the proper lines over an unpetti-
coated figure, the fashionable woman
must pay from s. to 81 yard.
In the days of petticoats a modish
gown was a much less expensive matter,

parent lace. The "V'' at the front OF the
low-cut bodice Is formed Of tulle, en-
broidered with silver beads.
Another charming gown Is simple OF
line and has for its foundation the palest
Of blue satin. There is a tunic OF sheer
lace which extends half way down the
length OF the skirt. The bottom part OF
the skirt is ornamented with large pink
silk roses. A large pink silk rose is
placed on the low round yoke which ex-
tends above the yelling of lace. The bot
tom Of the round yoke and sleeves Is out
lined with a pale blue silk cord.
A third model Is frock OF white lib
rty. The corsage and tunic are Of pale
blue mousseline embroidered with silver
and sleeves is trimmed with fringe OF the
beads.
/ Lovely white homespun run through
with tiny lilac or black stripes are made
up into trotting costumes as are also
the delicate pastel toned friezes and
Worsteds.
The jackets Of these costumes are
rather short with cutaway basques at the
front. The trimming usually employed Is
rows Of tiny buttons and imitation but
tonholes edged or mounted on satin
Block or white satin or shantung of pas
tel Of different shades often forms the
collars and cuffs Of such costumes las
some old-time embroideries is often en-
ployed for the trimming of the trotting
costume.
Taffeta is the material most in favor
| for the spring trotting costume. Plated
| tulle collars or embroidered linen col
| lars with handsome jabots are worn with
such costumes.
There was an admirable costume ex-
hibited at fashionable Washington shop
the other day. The model was OF fratse
satin. The jacket was trimmed with dull
| gold embroidery. There was shaped
round collar or yoke and an inset piece
at the front was Of black velvet Inset
bands Of velvet were at each side OF the
basque and skirt. Velvet also formed
| the cuffs and belt
Satin also formed the greater part Of
the afternoon frock which is shown
among the small cuts. The frock was
made OF emerald green wolfe and black
satin. The wolfe was gathered on a satin
foundation made in the form of jacket
extending half way down the length Of
the skirt. The outlines were trimmed
with tiny band plaitings Of the green
| wolfe edged with narrow black satin
bands There was row Of black satin
buttons down the front Of the froclk. The

Its wearer moves. The little train may
be square or pointed. or 1t may be
slashed in the middle SO that two sharp
may be part of the tunic and extend be-
yond the edge of the narrow satin skirt
and again 1t may be part of the skirt,
the tunic being draped in some graceful
manner above. Heavy bead ornaments
and fringes are used on these evening
tunics Of chiffon, lace or embroidered net
SO that the soft fabric clings to the
limbs; and when the train Is also weight
the gown moves every line of the figure
is revealed. But so cleverly are the
draperies managed and so classic and
natural are figure lines now that these
revealing effects are beautiful and not at
all an offense to good taste.
Under her modern evening gown the
fashionable woman wears the very small
est amount of clothing possible. perhaps
only silk chenise, and above this an
almost homeless corset of SOFT tricot ma
