Theresa Vaughn, who played Little Christopher, Is a new face in Indianapolis, and she made a distinct hit. Thi3 attractive woman deserves all the praise that has been showered on her In the East. She has a fetching mezzosoprano voice, and her singing last night fairly captivated the audience. In the second act she was encored a half dozen times. uu iii me last aci ctr un, itoney, Aiy Honey," was furiously cal!ea for a second time. Half the audience left the Grand last night summing- either the Honey" sofig or her "Lazily, Drowsily,'' a half-plaintive x song and chorus given In the Drat act. Another clever woman In ''Little Christopher" is Louts, Allen, who Is Mrs. Willie Collier la private We. Her familiar "Tough Girl" specialty has always been a favorite here, and last night she added to her fame In this city by giving several neat Impersonations. She also sang "I Went to Parlee with Papa" and danced with charming frrace. John Wilson's tramp specialty ana Bertha Waring's danefng were also loudly applauded.

FOR WOMEN'S BEADING

GAR3IEXTS FOR CIIILHrtn. REQUIRE 31 CClI CABE1TL THOUGHT. 3IanuaI Trnlnlnir Brines. a IVevr Feature Into ZVormnl SchoolsWhy Short Skirts Are Opposed. Fashions for children, says the New York Sun, are pretty and varied enough to leave very little to be desired In tIs special direction. Even though they do not change as rapidly and often as the grown-up styles, they follow the same line's as closely as possible, and there is a certainty in the result of whatever you undertake to acomplish in the way of children's gowns, which Is at least refreshing in the midst of the vicissitudes and Indecision connected with the make-up of one dress for an adult.'.; The gowns with the little gulme' waists have never really gone out of; fashion since they were first established la favor, and nothing can be prettier for litfTe maidens between four and twelve years Of age than this especial gown. The guimpe may h lace trimmed and us dainty or plain as you "-like," and whether the dress is of inexpensive gingham or dainty flowered silk U is sure to be a success. About the only variation possible In this style of gown, 'which has ither a full waist with a belt r a straight, plain bodice, Is in the bertha frill around the neck and the sleeves, whlcn Is usually a rmall puff. This turnover frill is cut round to fit the neck, and shaped in squares or p.int3 and made of some plain color for a contrast, trimmed around with white hraU if the material is cloth; and the sleeves are finished with a band of the same colon ; Finely checked wool goods in blae or brown and white make pretty dresses for school wear, and the belt nnd frill may be of plain blue or brown, with white and liny white pearl buttons for o finish. SkirU for young girls are made full and plain, with a v wide hem, and sometimes a few tucks around the bottom. Thin silky crepons. taffeta and China silks : are used for dressy gowns, and white linen lawn trimmed with lace makes the daintiest little slips for summer wear. Then there is the whole range of colored lawns, gintfhama and piques from which to choose. The last are so soft and pliable this year, and come in such dai.Mv colors, that they are1 especially suitable for small gowns and reefer 'ackets, hlch arc frettier than ever with iheir wide collars ar.d arge pearl buttons. Grass linen figures largely In children's dresses this season, anl ntrrow insertions of open-work line, embroider are th '.rimming, with simple d?s for tho neck frill, or this may be made of the linen with a rov of Insertion set in above a narrow hem. The guimpe waists are'Of white1 dawn'or China silk, end the effect is very pretty. Sun bon.nets and shirred hats are also made of grass linen. For girls over twelve the subjsct o? d'ess becomes more complicated, since th y expect more variety In their gowns and do not look well in everything they put on. The blonse waist Is the most popular' ttyle of bodice, and may be plaited In box plaits or gathered and finished with a stock collar and belt of flowered ribbon.- -Another dress of blue and white striped challie is trimmed with Valenciennes ' lace and blue satin ribbon, which also forms a square yoke. Skirts of wool gowns for girls in their teens are gored, measure from three to four yaids around the bottomland the coat and skirt style of dress Is quite as popular with them as with their elders. Serge Is the rrxoH serviceable material, but alpaca is used Quite extensively this season. One dress of beige-colored alpaca has n plain bodice fastened diagonally in front, and the V-shaped opening Is. marked by a band of white alpaca, and buttons fasten the lower part of the waist, riaid silk makes a pret'y contrast with plain wool dresses, and one of brown has a shirred guimpe and collar of plaid silk. Outing suits with Jaunty coats niA r A r s 9 ntmu no wall am tcrira and sailor suits of this material with plaited waists and wide collars of white linen, bat iste, or the same trimmed with embroidery. will be worn by both small ana large girls later In the season. Women Lenrn Carpentering?. , Philadelphia Press. . . ; In the near future there. will be no room for doubt as to the . ability rof IS 'Philadel phia wdman to ' firffe v aU',T fo handle a saw or to use a plane. Three years ago there was established In the Philadelphia Normal School a class for the purpose of learning the use of wood-working tools. The venture has been notably successful, and the cleverness of, girls at work has justiHed the introduction of this manual training In the normal work. The young women who are taking this work, O in number, are very' apt pupils. and seem to enjoy It exceedingly. They look most businesslike when - 'at ' work in the large, well-lighted apartment. Three rows of desks run down the length of the room. each desk seating two pupils. These desks are really work oencnes. mey are Jiign, with a fiat top and a rack fon tools stands In the center, between the two girls, who sit facing each other. - - . , In the rack are placed hammers and saws, brace and bits, chisels and pianes In fact, a complete set or carpenter s toois. At each girl's side is a miniature vise, and on top of the table rests a drawing board, with T-souare and triangle.Each Klrl makes her own drawing, which ehe is required to make .mathematically correct, and then she starts In to 6aw with a workmanlike precision. . Upcci a blackboard the teacher draws the designs, which the girls are to cut In wood. These drawings are reduced to a certain scale by the pupils, and then .they go to work borlncr ' rows ' of holes: ' leveling strips of wood, making: various 'forms of Joints, dovetailing and mortising pieces of wood together, and, in snort, going tnrougn all the processes a carpenter uses ror turninir out hla finished work. " It is the prin ciples and processes which these girls are taiurht to annlv In future teaching or in the making of special pieces outside of school The girls are taught ' to keep their tools in order, Just as a carpenter does, and after a little practice they perform this work with marvelous ueitness ana neatness.

ITarDer's Bazar. At this model breakfast table the eatables, of course, must be the best of their kind the coffee clear and thoroughly good,, the but ter and eggs fresh and daintily served, the cream Ice-cold, the toast evenly cut and browned to Just the, right color . and crlspness, the oatmeal, or whatever ' the cereal may be, salted to give it taste and relish, the fruit prettily arranged on the fruit dish, and any other viand that is added to this- simple list the most popular kind of breakfast for the ordinary household most attractively prepared and served. The' old-fashioned breakfasts that our elders so delighted in, of beefsteaks, chops, potatoes, a variety of hot breads, vegetables, sweets, and often pie, and the inevitable wind-up of griddle cakes o' waffles, ha,ye gradually come into disfavor with us, to the relief of our digestions; and even among men and the working portion of the community the light, dainty breakfast that we quote is taking their place. ,The functions called "breakfasts," given for the purpose of entertaining, are the wed ding breakfast following the now popular noqn wedding ana any omer repasts that take place before or about noon, all of which are generally most enjoyable occasions, doubtless owing to the fact somewhat that, as a rule, guest- of both seres are invited who, meeting In a less formal mood than at evening dinners, enjoy a nveiy intercourse. The ordinary wedding breakfast differs- lit tle In the details of menu, service. etc.. from the repast of the afternoon or evening celebrations. The. guests may partake of It. seated at small tables in groups of four or six. or star.d or sit unceremoniously about one large table while tney are servc-u1 hy the wallers, or. if the party. is small, they may all be seated around one table, and the breakfast may be served as at any meal in regular courses. - The menu usually Includes boull!on or con somme, oysters or lobsters or crabs fancifully prepared, croquettes, salads and sandwlclus anl rolls, game or Jellied meats. Ices and cakes and bonbons, and the usual drinks coffee, punch, lerronade, and perhaps wines.

Mr. and Mrs. William Jay's 'company at breakfast on Tuesday, June 4. at 11 o'clock. . ; (Address.) t i When the breakfast is to be an informal little entertainment the hostess writes the notes of invitation herself, telling the date, hour, etc., and. needless to say, one of these Invitations demands an immediate answer, and later an after-call from a person receiving it. What We Eat. Jeannette Walworth, In New York Mail and Express. Touching family consumption, some frightfully alarming statements get into print every now and then about the food we eat! It is -enough to make one's hair stand on end with horror. Now, It is the bakers and their down-cellar bakeshops that are coming up for just condemnation. There seems to be a tacit admission among all classes of men and women that the human family is in jeopardy, exclusively from what the men drink! We are getting one-

ideaed in reform matters. There are a good many men and women among us thousands of them who. would think the entire revenue of the city well expended, its whole police force properly employed, looking after the beer consumers of the city, with never a thought for the corruption that obtains In other directions. Milkmen may. deliver your milk "In cans whose exteriors certainly do 1 not suggest familiarity with any known cleansing agency; bakers may turn your dally bread out from subterranean shops, which axe. never submitted to outside inspection; butch-' ers may impose upon the ignorant housekeeper fowls of questionable age, and meat difficult .to catalogue. If you can detect fraud for yourself, so much the better for vnn- hnf von must not emect a ceneral supervision of these matters by a board of Inspectors. There are some rexorms it is hopeless to look for unless women are to be put in charge of them. A corps of keeneyed women, with the - housekeeper's Instinct for cleanliness, and the average wo man's nose for evil odors, jolneu .to ner practical horror of unclean corners, would do yeoman 8 ervlce In ferreting out such evils as menace the public welfare hygienIcally. They would be a "holy terror- to the butcher and baker and the candlestick maker, whose methods are not above reproach, One Objection to Short Skirts. . Philadelphia Inquirer. Woman's vanity is sufficient to overthrow in some unexpected way the most hygienic dress moves ever launched Into the world of wardrobe foibles. There is a contemplated shortening of the walking skirt. Two of ttfe sex interested in the change were talking the rumor over. Said one: "Oh, what a relief it would be to strike out for a good, brisk walk and not have a whole lot of cumbersome draperies flopping and dragging under foot. I m sure I could get up a walking craze in no time under those circumstances." "Y-e-s." was the hesitating reply. "Skirts to. the ankle would be comfortable, butwell, you see my feet are so large that P0 dread putting them on exhibition tnat way. I've fairly reveled In great- roomy English walking boots lately, but I simply could not clump along in a shoe of this size If my skirt was hitched one Inch above Its present length." If the comfort-giving abbreviated skirt finds its way into the wardrobes of the land this woman, as wei; as her other sisters, will probably give it her sanction, but at the same time she will squeeze her feet Into footgear of as Clndertlla-llke proportion as she can endure and hobble along In the complacent belief that she la In touch with clothing hygiene. And so it goes. Feminine vanity is hy dra-headed. Make away with one of its errors and two spring up to replace the one destroyed. About Halrdresslnff. New York Times. The real keynote to successful halrdresslng, as the tasteful woman has long ago found, is to follow only in the distance and with as many ramifications as a Brooklyn street-car line the prevailing fashion. If that capricious dame announces that "hair is worn low this season" it means simply to the woman who knows that the general effect of her coiffure is to be slightly lowered. She will stli dress her hair, aa she must always, to suit her face. A low, straight forehead may be surmounted by a pompadour arrangement; a high-pointed crow never. Fine, straight, black hair ough; never to show Itself In frizzes or fine curls: loose shining waves is its heightening beaiir ty. it is a curious fact. too. that blonde and brown hair may permit itself a sweet confusion that in black hair is simple un tidiness. The woman with coarse, wavy hair may congratulate herself, for It always lends itself, above all chevelures, to! easy arrangement. Novelists like to describe the fine hair of their heroines, but such hair is a trial to its owner, and Its owner's maid If she has one, and If, in addition. It Is straight, both owner and maid are Justified in regarding It as a genuine handicap to an successiui coimruj. Neivest Millinery. New York Evening Post ' Some of the latest millinery shows a marked tendency to grow In height. Many of the crowns are raised and the trimmings heaped to an absurd height. On Tarls hats and bonnets many of the gayflowers are veiled with tulle, some of the red roses enveloped In. red tulle, then recovered, with white Illusion. Width at the back of the hat doe not diminish, and on many Paris bonnets, capotes, and round hats are long, wide tulle or Brussels net scarfs or ribbon strings. Strings, If not exaggerated, are almost uni versally becoming. Those of narrow velvet are particularly so, but strings a yard in length and four or five inches wide do nofc appeal to us at present. The wide tulle scarfs, however, either in black or whlte have a very becoming and dressy effect, particularly to women of mature years, wnose cheeks and throats have lost the roundness and freshness of youth. But on Leghorn and other wlde-brlmmed hats these airy scarfs fall gracefully from the back of the hat. and will be worn by both girls in their teens ana youtnrui matrons. What n Man Likes. New York Tribune. ' "What I like about women's dress just now is Its suggestlveness of the attention that is paid to the under side of things," remarked a masculine critic. T like the pretty linings that one catches a glimpse of under the rip pie of a Jacket, or the displaced fold of a1 cloth skirt, and the silk petticoat, with its ruffles and lace trimmings, that show every now and again when milady gets into her carriage, or runs up the steps of a brownstone fronU r like the faint odor of violets that you notice when you pick up her glove. veil or fan, and the clean look of her wellkept hair and .hands, for an up-to-date woman is a dainty creature, despite her 'tailor mades' and knickerbockers and mannish little affectations. 'The gods see inside,' said the Eastern artisan as he finished the interior of his vase with the same care that; he bestowed upon the exterior; and It is precisely that which I admire about the women nowadays the evident daintiness of all their belongings.' - An Autograph Couch Cushion. Good Housekeeping. This is a pretty piece of needlework. Two squares of white linen of the desired size of cushion are required. Ask your friends, to write (with a lead pencil) their names In large open hand upon one piece of the linen. When the space is entirely filled (crazy fashion) outline the autographs In shades of yellow wash silk. Buttonhole the edges In scallops and work an eyelet In each. Embroider your monogram in the center of the second square cf linen for the other side of the cushion. Finish the edges of this in the same manner as the first, then lace both . together over a cushion whose four sides are covered with a full shirring of yellow silk. Use yellow silk cord for lacing, and decorate one corner with a large bow of wide yellow satin ribbon. Various Suirfrentlona. An authority finds that bicycle riding has a tendency to produce the arched instep coveted by all women. All sorts of pretty berthas, Marie Antoinette fichus and fancy collarettes are being made ready for summer wear over light or white gowns. .Slip a piece of white slate In the leather frame of a cabinet photograph holder from which the glass lias been removed, sketch the days of the week In fanciful outline on it. and a home-made engagement list as pretty and serviceable as the expensive silvermounted store affair is achieved.

Plaster of paris figures and busts are apt to become soiled and discolored. The best way to clean them is to make a strong solution of sairatus in water, stand the r.rures in it and throw the water over them. Pieces badt? soiled may be rubbei with a soft cloth. Rinse in clean S3leratus water and let them dry without wiping. email cakes are no longer In demand at evening parties. IXiinty fruit sandwiches have taken their place. Bread is cut very thin and lightly buttered, and then spread with raisins, dates or candled cherries tliat have been chopped fine and moistened with orange Juice, sherry or Madeira. Roll and tie with baby ribbons. Lemonade or punch is served with these.

A blessing to many persons In one cf our smaller cities is a trained nurse, who is going to try the experiment of taking charge of more than one patient at a time. To one she will ko for an hour in the morning and make her comfortable for ttie day. and return for the same length of time at night. In surgical cases she will go to dress the wounds as often as required. She will' in this way relieve manv families and friends worn out with caretaking who could not afford her continuous services. Chine effects are truly the keynote of near ly everything in the world of dress, the pat terns appearing among silks, satins, fancy velvets, cottons, silk and wool fabrics, etc. Nearly all dressy gowns are jnow made with eilk linings, and many chine brocades are used for that purpose. Then a silk flounce, E Inked at both edges and placed inMde tne em, is imperative. Theee fancy silks look very well for a change, but the shot silks, or, better still, the plain taffeta silks In monochrome, are really the most elegant and refined (Choice. "Live one day at a time, my dear," said an elderly woman to a younger one recently. "Don't wrinkle your forehead to-day over tomorrow's cares. Nothing Is so bid, or so good, either, as we anticipate, and to-morrow's burden may not be one when to-morrow is to-day. I lived over two-thinis of my life before I discovered this secret, and I am crowing younger every month in its use. There is always time and strength for today's duties and cares; it is ttie piling and borrowing, the crossing of bridges before they are reached, that kills." ROBBED A WORKING GIRL. Contemptible Trick Played Crowd of Loafers. by A young woman, from her dress and bearing evidently a working girl,, was the victim of a petty trick played upon her by four or five loafers standing on the curbstone at the corner of Washington and, Pennsylvania streets, yesterday. The girl was coming up Virginia avenue. -carrying a purse in her hand. As she passed the men the clasp of the purse came unfastened and 2 or $3 in small change, quarters and halves, fell close to the men. They shifted their feet in such a way as to cover the money. The girl dil not observe this action, although she hear! the money fall, and becan searching lor it. A clerk in the window of a clothing store witnessed the whole action, but did not come out and inform the girl where to find ir money. She walked around the men two or three times, looking for the money upon tht ground about their feet, but. was unable to find any of It, with the exception of a dime and two or three pennies. Seeing that further search was useless, the girl walked away, when the fellows stooped down, gathered up the money and disappeared in thu crowd. Patrolman Moore was on the opposite s!d of the street directing a man how to find i certain street and knew nothing of the occurrence. He knows the fellows and if tK; appear on that corner again they will be arrested. " . , DELIVERING BEER OS SUNDAY, Ami let .o LIqnor Is Sold Here oi tbat Day. . . . Superintendent Colbert has Insisted M! along that the liquor, laws were not be in;; violated on Sunday, and that no saloons were doing business. In the face of this declaration he has sent a 'letter to all the breweries warning them that he has received complaints charging that they deliver kegs of beer to their customers on Sunday. The letter closes with the warning that members of the police force have been Instructed to arrest any persons found hauling beer on Sunday, and that all drivers s6 arrested will be prosecuted according to law. . LIqnor Lenjrne Hendaanrters. The Indiana Liquor League Is preparing to take an aggressive part in the coming campaign. Headquarters have been opened In the World's Fair Building. It is said that the league has recently received several accessfbns to its ranks. The officials of trie organization claim that but one member of the last Legislature who voted for the Nicholson law has been renominated. Secretary Callen denies that the leamie. has written 'any letter exonerating Petry Bear, formerly prosecutor5 of Jefferson county, of the charge that he obtained Indictments against saloon men for the fees which would come to him as prosecutor. It is said that he secured the nomination for. Circuit Judge upon the strength of the assertion that such a letter had been written by the league. Instructions to Pensioners. . Pension Agent Spencer says he is receiving a number . of letters from pensioners asking that new vouchers be sent them for the May payment of pensions. These pensioners undoubtedly believe that the new law requires them to get new vouchers. This is not a fact, and every pensioner who now has a May voucher In his possession should execute it on or after May 4. and forward to this agency for payment. It is only in case a pensioner has no voucher at all that he should either write for one or call and get it at once. . Col. I. X. Walker In California. LOS ANGELES, Cal., April I6.C0I. I. N.
