than that the management of the
Orpheum theatre has secured for an
engagement Of three nights starting

pany in n of the latest Tabloid
comedies supplemented with high class
vaudeville. Miss Russell is n of the
most prominent figures in western
theatrical circles, a position she has
achieved and held by untiring energy,
careful attention to her art and a
sincere desire to present nothing but
the most elevating and refined Of
modern comedy or drama. She has
starred in many Of the best metropoli-
tan productions always at the ad-
vanced price, but this season attracted
by the fancy salaries of the vaudeville
stage she is forsaking the legitimate
and is appearing as a feature attrac-
ton in the vaudeville houses. Miss
Russels act is a Tabloid version of A
Star by Mistake which is simply one
of the big New York successes con-
densed to one act form and Is proving
one Of the biggest features in the
vaudeville field. She is surrounded
with an excellent company many Of
them not only clever in comedy, but
also vaudeville artists Of ability and
the play is supplemented with bright
and snappy vaudeville, among the acts

The Grand,

An American Citizen one OF the
greatest comedy successes in the his
tory Of the modern stage, Is to be seen
at the Grand theatre the last half of
the week, is In e~xcitingly humorous
drama of adventures and misad-
ventures. fortunes and. misfortunes,
intrigues and any number Of comic
complications which center about a
young American, who in the midst Of
his defeats and victories never forgets
his patriotism, though for a time, due
to a chivalrous impulse, he Is forced to
forego his American citizenship, which
he eventually regains. together with
love and fortune.
John Barrymore, in the role Of
Beresford Cruger, the American hero
of the story, who sacrifices nationality,
for an affection, for the sake Of a
woman, and meets all his reverses
with a never-say-die fortitude typi"
cally American, renders a peculiarly
suitable i~mpersonation, and adds an
other artistic achievement to his list
of stellar triumphs.

G0LDEN NEEDLES.
They Were Used When GsIIants 10
France Did Fancy Work.

During the old regime in France
about which so much glamour re-
mains to us, the very men who were
living and making the history of the
empire of Louis passed their leisure
time in a way that seems to us OF
today utterly ridiculous. In all the
fancy work on which ladies employ
ed themselves the men seem to have
taken part.
Poinsinet in one Of his comedies
represents young marquis enter
ing a room where two fair damsels
are embroidering. One is working
piece of dress trimming, the other

the embroidery with the eye of a
connoisseur, points out here an5

He takes a little gold tube out o.

waistcoat and selects dainty GOLD
needle. He goes to the frame a,
which Cidalise is working and fin
ishes the flower which she had be
gun. From her he moves to the
sofa and, seiMng one end of the
founce, assists Ismene, to whom he
pays special attention, TO complete
her task.
At this time it was the custom Of
the ladies invariably to carry their
workbags with them to the evening
receptions, in which they had not
only their embroidery materials, but
the last novel, the popular songs,
their patch boxes and rouge pots.
Gentlemen also carried deftly en-
broidered little bags into company,
which held ga whole arsenal of cut
lery and fancy articles, such
boxes of different shapes filed W
lozenges, bonbons, snuff and scent.
At another period the fashion OF
the day was to cut out drawings
from books and pamphlets and to
paste them on screens, lamp shades,
boxes and vases. The skill in this
was to so arrange the drawings OF
parts of different drawings as to
produce a curious or amusing ef-
feet. Then there came a season
when all the rage was for charades
and riddles, which gave peculiarly
good opportunity to exercise the
light and rapid wit so conspicuous
in the French. Every evening the
drawing rooms were converted into
impromptu charadcs. Some lady
would suggest word or phrase, and
forthwith it would be converted into
the subject of sprightly little play.

Cold Weather Breaks Sox Streak
.. Cubs Clout-Feds FIopped.

Southpaw Carl Weilman, feeling in
a patriotic mood after reading the
papers, instituted a peaceful block
ade of home plate yesterday, and
stuck the White Sox for their first
defeat of the season. -. .
The day was not suited to base
ball, and the Sox played nothing that
could be construed as a correct ex-
position of the national pastime. Err
rors were plentiful, and came when
the situation was critical Every one
of the boots was fatal, and in the
third four messy plays combined with
three safeties presented the visitors
with four runs and the old ball game.
Eddie Cicotte got as hard a. wal
Looping as he will take all year. The
French finger froze his pitching arm
and lost all the puzzle stuff usually
concealed therein. He was batted
safely eight times before retiring in
the eighth inning. Three passes prove
that the star was having difficulty
steering his knuckle ball.
There was much comment to the
effect that the cold weather did not
affect the Browns as it did the Sox.
There were two reasons. The Browns
were not confronted with the same
situations that cropped up when the
Sex were on defense, and. the cold
weather was such a decided change
from what the locals have been used
to for the past two months that it was
more of a handicap to them.
No team in either league ran into
better training conditions than the
Sox. They had the advantage of a
hot sun, and their good condition is
undoubtedly responsible for the fast
pace they have set to date. When
they encountered wintry weather
they were up against it. They show
ed some of this Saturday, winning
only after the most desperate kind of
batting rally.
