AIRFRT SPALnING.

Albert Spdding, who is recognized
as the first great American viOlinist,
will give the first concert recital in
this city at The Playhouse on Thurs
day night, and his coming should be
one Of the musical events OF the pres
ent season. Mr.. Spalding's position in
the musical world is most unique. For
nearly five wears he has captivated
European audiences in a manner that
has done justice to the most famous
violinist of the age. Mr.. Spalding did
not really come into his own In this
country until last season. Then he
was hailed with delight by all who
heard him. In spite OF the fact that
musical America was practically over
whelmed with artists and musicians OF
all classes, Mr. Spalding was one OF
the very few stars to stand out in bold
relief above all competitors.
Shading received most OF his mu-
steal education in Italy. At the age Of
IA he took the examination for pro-
fessorship at Bologna Conservatory.
He came through with flying cOlors,
and for a considerable length Of time
il was thought that he was the young
est musician to ever pass such an ex-
animation, but later it was found that
Mozart had passed a similar test for
the piano-133 years before at pre-
cisely the same age.
He has appeared in nearly every
civilized country on the globe. where
music plays an important part in the
national life Of the people. In Russia,
Finland Italy. Germany. Sweden and
Egypt he is hailed with delight, and
he is one OF the very few violinlsts who
has ever appeared at the famous La
Scala Opera House in Milan. The other
violinists. who have had such honor
conferred upon them were Paganini'
Sarasate, Won Vescey and Fritz kreis-
Ter.

NINE. SARAH BERNHARDT
PLEASES LARGE AUDIENCE.

Wilmingtonians last night witnessed
a performance OF Nine. Sarah Bern
hardt, possibly for the last time, for
at the conclusion of her present en-
gagement, Madame will return TO
France to remain. To say that theatre
goers received a treat, that they saw
a remarkable performance, or any OF
the other things which are usually
said about a good actor or actress,
would be wholly superfuous In this
particular case Wilmington saw q
wonderful performance or more prop
erly series of wonderful perfor-
mances for Madame Bernhard pre-
scented THE Death of Cleopatra
From the Stage TO the Field of
Honors" and THE Sham Model"
while the other members of the COM
pany also presented a clever little COM
edy, English as it is Spoken" The
audience was thoroughly appreciative.
In two of the three plays she pre-
scented Madame Bernhard spoke in
French. People who did not under
stand q word of French laughed with
her or shed tears over her as the oc-
casion demanded. She simply made
herself felt II was the wonderful
Bernhard and the audience could
not avoid approaching her work.

ONE OF "EATAL SEVEN" CLIMBS
INSURANCE EXCHANGE

With the wind blowing so hard that
it at times swung him clear around
the pole, Edmond Won Kaenel, 3O7
Hill st., today climbed to the top of
the Flagstaff on the Insurance Ex-
change bldg. to bring down the ball
and haIyard truck. The halyard truck
has been struck, so the flag could not
be raised.
Won Kaenel is a member of one of
the seven fatal professions on which
insurance companies will not take a
risk at any premium. Won KaeneI
could not get risk in life insurance
company at a premium of less than
100 per cent, for no life insurance
man will gamble that he will be alive
tomorrow.
The halyard truck which Won Kae-
mel brought down from the Insurance
Exchange pole was 1856 feet above
street level and weighed IS pounds.
He will put it back in a few days.
Van Kaenel said the wind was
blowing about 55 miles an hour while
he was working on the pole.

BOLSTER THAT HAS POCKET
Suggestion Here Likely to Be Found of
Value for Great Variety of
Reasons.

Bolster cases with long, full ends
that hang down on either side of the
bed are familiar to most of us and they
are certainly an improvement on the
old-fashioned style of case The one
illustrated here is made to serve a
double purpose.
The edges of the material of one Of
the ends that hangs downwards are
sewn together so that it forms a bag
or pocket and in the position marked
with cross in the sketch a slit is cut
to give access to the bag. This pocket
will be found most useful at night or
for an invalid, for in it can be safely
placed a handkerchief, a box of
matches, book, watch or any of
those little things that it is nice to
have within easy reach
Diagram A shows the complete case
and B indicates the pocket, and in the
opposite end, c, the bolster can be in

CARE OF SKIN IN WINTER
Matter That Is of Great importance to
Those Who Have Due Regard for
Their Appearance.

Some skins are sensitive to cold
and direct contact with wintry winds
is hard on them. But though yours
is delicate it need not keep you from
going out this winter if you will give
it reasonably good care A coat of
good skin food cream, we'll rubbed in
and busted over with rice or talcum
powder, should be applied as soon as
it begins to get cold This will pre-
vent the wind from chapping and dry
ing the skin too severely.
1t is quite fatal, too, to bathe the
skin Immediately before or soon after
exposing it, for this takes the oil from
the skin and causes it to chap. On
coming inside it is best to rub mas.
sage cream on the face, and after al
lowing 1t to remain on long enough
to soften the skin surface, wipe it Off
with a soft muslin cloth. Then if the
skin is in need of it, it may be bathed
with warm water and soap. An astrin-
gent lotion should be used after to
close the pores.
Try the following liquid soap recipe
for green liquid soap, which is recon-
mended for fine skins or for those
which have the pores extended: Take
equal parts of glycerin, water, alco-
hol and green CASTLE soap. Shave the
soap over the water and stir over the
fire until the mixture is smooth. Add
the glycerin and lastly, after the kettle
is removed from the fire, add the al
cohol. Add tablespoonful Of eau de
cologne if perfume is desired.
In case of blackheads the face
should be steamed and treated twice
a week, Always apply the cleansing
cream to the face and throat and wipe
it off thoroughly before steaming. The
blackheads should be removed imme-
diately after the steaming Then mas
sage for ten minutes with a soft tow
ell, which will remove all the grease.
Use cleansing cream every night
and toilet water in the morning in
stead Of ordinary water. Take a tub
bath daily, use a bath brush on the
body, but not on the face.

The next morning Mr.. Lightfoot
was up quite early as he had mapped
out for the day considerable hauling
to do with his team of mules. He
prepared breakfast for himself and
his guest and they ate together. In
his haste to get away, Lightfoot fin
ished his breakfast first, so he ask
Ell the stranger to put the remnants
OF food in the cupboard when he had
eaten his meal and close the door
when he went out, while he (Light-
fCot) would hitch up his mules and

to go back into the house after tie
rone Lightfoot found that his guest
had appropriated the same, using it
10 tie up his roll of blankets. AS
L;gbtfoot pulled the rope off the blan
ilets, the latter unrolled, disclosing
the pillow, he had so kindly loaned
the fellow, together with a coat and
several other articles that the migrate
had pilfered. This Justly made Light
foot wrathy so he called the fellow
down with language more forcefully
expressive than elegant, threw the
blankets out doors and unceremonious
y elected his erstwhile guest forth
with. The stranger accepted the
stern Impeachment without a word
but with a "sheepish" look on his
face and after saddilng his horse
took his departure, travelling north.
Mr.. Lightfoot as soon thereafter
as possible, informed Constable John
Roberts and Deputy Sheriff Despair
of the mysterious visitor, and the Of
ficers are putting forth every effort
to find out if a person answering his
description is wanted for any crime.
The Indian police report that
man corresponding with his descrip
ton had been camped for several
days in the mesquite brush down on
the reservation but had suddenly dis
appeared.
On the afternoon of the day he
stopped at Lghtfoot's place, Jack
O'Connor reports that upon returning
10 his ranch home. he found this
man in his house ransacking the
same. AS Jack was carrying a shot
gun at the time, he got the drop on
the intruder and ordered him Off at
the point of the gun.
1t is a certainty that this man is
not overburdened with honest scru-
pies, and if he is not a criminal and
a fugitive from justice, his actions
greatly belle him, though it is pos
sible that he may be somewhat de-
mented.
