A more striking tribute could scarcely hive been raid to the genius of Mrs. Flske than was contained in the splendid audience that greeted her in "Becky Sharp" at the Tark Theater last night. The last time this distinguished actress visited Indianapolis .she played at a more fashionable house. Not being able, however, to secure such a theater in which to apoe.ir on the occasion of the present visit, she was compelled to ask her admirers ta come to her, and for the nonce the Park for many years a popular-priced house was converted into the most select playhouse in Indianapolis. The city's wealthiest and most cultured people came in their carriages and were agreeably surprised to rind that the management of the Park fully appreciated the honor of their presence. The audience entered the theater walking on a carpet beneath a canopy that excluded the rain, which was falling quite freely at the time the performance began. Doorkeeper Brown was transformed by the aid of a neat-fitting dress suit and the ushers were all attired in harmony with the importance of the event. When the audience had entirely arrived, which, unfortunately, was not until the first act was well-nigh ended, a survey of the specious auditorium of the Park was calculated to she one a pleasurable feeling. tew audiences eo.ua! in splendor to that of last night have assembled in any playhouse In the city in several seasons. Practically every seat on all of the Moors of the auditorium was occupied and the boxes were filled with handsomaiy gowned women and their mascullm escorts. Mrs. Flske scored the greatest artistic triumph of her notable cart er by her portrayal of the character of Thackeray's fascinating heroine. It is regretted that the dramatist. Mr. Langrlon Mitchell, cannot be faid to have triumphed with the actress. The adaptation of "Vanity Fair." however, shows marked lack of contlnultv. and was evidently made especially for Mrs. Flske, since she is almost "the. whole play." It Is probably true that Mr. Mitchell adapted this ponderous novel as well as the work could possibly have been done; nevertheless, the fact remains that the play, viewed Strictly as a play, is not satisfying. To say that Mrs. Flske' "11, cky Sharp Is a creation of art would be to give utterance to a statement that has been oft repeated that it Is now almost a platitude. Kvery one In the audience expected to see a great piece of actlnir, else thev would not have been there. Th" triumph of th actress lay. however, in the fact that she surpassed all expectations and hel l up to view a character creation that excelled .nil her rrevlous efforts brilliant as they undoubtedly were. Of her delightful portrayal of Tess of the. IV Ubt rvillts it mi-ht have been said that any woman who has leved culd have accomplished as much. A hen she essayed th unscrupulous charotter of "P.ecky Sh up" she was required to sink, not merely her personality, but her best womanly attributes as well. The fullness of her art is in the accomplishment of this feat. For the time being she was "Hecky Sharp" fascinating. heartless, mercenary, mendacious, readv to do almost any lnful thing to accomplish her ambit!on. which was t. rtln a queen in th. highest social circle. Onlv two redeeming features appean-d in all the hidenr. chapters of her life-she loved fur husband, ltawdon Crawley, and sacrificed, temporarily at hast, her nW ambition to unite two loving hearts. Even the latter act of kindness was marred by the fact that it va done by besmirching the dead. Mrs Flske evidently know her Thackeray , er. like that great author, she portrays rice In It ' naked r pulsivenes. that flone who look may envy. "Ili-i kv Sharp" v.-as. happy, as the? world estms happl-ruf-s; n,. held tin- reins over s-oci.-ty she could Hing the most biting sarcasm at lll'ed ladies: she could Iio well on nothing a year." as she Jauntily expressed It and she could trip lightly to the harpsichord and tdng a dainty air to her wn accompaniment, rlnht after she had done One of the most despicable deeds iioible to a woman, yt. for all that, no one would vant tr he IS, cky Sharp Here again i art. is irenius. Mrs. Fiske's supporting company could not well be lm:,rovd. Lach member impersonates the character ustigned to hlra
or her with such fidelity that they seem to have stepped right from th? pages of the old novel. This effect Is, of course, heightened by the marvelous accuracy of costuming and by the atmosphere lent by the splendid scenic environment. Charles Vane as the Marquis of Steyne, and Frank Hillmore as Rawdon Crawley were permitted to share the actress's triumph only in the strong situation formed by Rawdon returning from the bailiff's house to find his wife, Reeky, heartlessly drinking a toast to "the absent one," while her hand rested caressingly on a jewel box containing 5,i0. the gift of the marquis. The admirable acting of the three evoked the greatest outburst of applause that marked the performance. Robert V. Ferguson gave a. delightful character bit in his delineation of the repulsive Sir Pitt Crawley. The sanctimonious but hypocritical litt Crawley was capitally portrayed by Charles Plunkett. Norman Conners as William Dobbin, and Alfred Hudson as Joseph Sedlev were particularly effective. Miss Laura MoGilvray. an attractive talented young actress, added new laurels to her fame bv her delicat. graceful portraval of Amelia. Sedley. Mary K. Barker as "Miss Crawley, and Mary Maddern as Rriggs, opened the play, and by their clever character work kept the audience In laughter for a considerable period. Mrs. Fiske's sense of artistic timers would not permit of the employment of pupernumerurles In the ensemble scenes, and this delicate attention to detail went far to make the production the notable event It was. The gorgeous ballroom, with Its broad stairway. Its brilliant illumination and its realistic statues, has been fully described in advance, but it may be said that It realized all expectations that may have been aroused. A feature cf the play, which may not be overlooked even In the narrow limits of a newspaper notice, is the sparkling wit with which it fairly abounds. The lion's share of these humorous sallies falls to Reeky Sharp, and they are given their full emphasis. Mrs. Fiske's splendid production of "Reeky Sharp" may be seen again this afternoon and for the last time to-night..
Note of the Stage. The usual performance was given at the Zoo last night. There was a good attendance. Traveling men will patronize tho Zoo to-day and night. XXX Monday's matinee at the Empire will introduce T. K. Miaco's City Club Company. The engagement is for the week, and several novelties and new features are promised. xxx "Siberia," the powerful melodrama from the pen of the late Hartley Campbell, which Is to be presented at the Park Theater the first three days of next week, is provided with an abundance of excellent comedy to relieve the somber situations of the play. xxx Joseph CuFack Is credited with having made a big hit by his clever impersonation of the Indian chief Ta-No-Nee in the lively farce "A Stranger in a Strange Land," which comes to the Park next Thursday atternoon to remain the rest of the week. XXX Since vaudeville was introduced at the Grand the old rule of small audiences the latter part of the week has been completely set aside. Nowadays the performances Saturday afternoon and night draw as large audiences as any others during the week. xxx The comic opera that will be presented by the Boston Lyric opera company at English's Opera House Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights and Saturday afternoon next week are all great, popular successes. The repertory Includes "The Fencing Master," "The Idol s Eye" and "Wang." XXX The Grand's weekly change of bill Monday afternoon will bring to that house for the first time in vaudeville the famous comic opera star Camille D'Arville; Eugene O'Rourke. the singing comedian, in a new comedietta. "Parlor A;" the Bison City Quartet; Minnie Allen and Will Murphy In a surprise entitled "The Bifurcated Girl;" Lotta Gladstone, the quaint country girl comedienne; Burton and Brooks In a sketch. "A Quiet Evening at the Club;" the musical Kleists and the biograph. XXX A finely printed and sumptuously bound edition of Richard Mansfield's acting version of Shakspeare's "King Henry V," from the establishment of MeClure, Thillips & Co., New York, has been received at the Journal. There is an introduction written by Mr. Mansfield, also an appendix devoted to heraldry, with which the play has much to do. and copious footnotes casting light upon obscure passages in the Play. Altogether a more pleasing and satisfying book has not issued from any publishing house this season. xxx "Richard Savage," the play from the pen of Madeleine Lucette Ryley to be presented at English's Opera House this afternoon and to-night, is divided Into five acts and Involves more than twenty speaking parts. The principal characters arc such interesting people as Nance Oldfield, the famous actress, Colly Cibber, Richard Steele and Lord Tyrconnell, all belonging to the days of Dr. Johnson. In the title role Mr. Henry Miller is declared by both critics and public to be making the deepest impression of his career. The production was made by Wagenhals & Kemper, which gives assurance that It will be satisfying. PERSONAL AND SOCIETY. Mrs. W. J. Richards has returned from a visit in Lafayette. Mrs. Herbert V.

Rev. William A. Quayle, pastor of Meridian-street M. E. Church, last night gave the list of a series of lectures which have been given through the winter. He talked to a good-sized audience on "Shakspeare's Men." He spoke of the pessimist the man who does not see good in things. In illustrating h!s point the lecturer held up to view the characteristics of a yung man who is inclined to look at things darkly. He calls on a young woman and tells her that his life has been shadowed. He Intimates that suicide may be the end. If the frirl is wise she will laugh at the youth. "A girl's wholesome, full-grown giggle " said Dr. Quayle. "will do more to knock that nonsense out of a foolish fellow than anything else." The lecturer pointed out Casslus as a j-s-simlFt. He was brutal and ambitious, but he was a pessimist. He committer! suicide. "Every suicide," said Dr. Quayle. "is a pessimist." The lecturer described pessimism as an Insane attitude, compounded with egotism and foolishness. "The pessimist." he said, "is a man whom everything masters. An optimist is a man who masters everything." Dr. Quayle said that King Lear was a pessimist. In discussing man of the baker sort to hw found In fcihalr.
speare the lecturer referred to Iago. and this led to the declaration that one cannot always tell the villain on sight. "It's a funny thing," said Dr. Quayle. "how many people think a villain wears villainy In his face. You can't tell villains by the way they look. I've seen people who looked as villainous as sin, and they were Methodist ministers. I've seen people who were as pious as a meeting house, and they were three-card monte men. "Iago w3s such a villain," the lecturer declared, "that he lied to himself and believed his own lies." Dr. Quayle also spoke of the "friend" In Shakspeare, referring to Horatio as otie of the truest. "Who ever had a friend sweeter than Horatio?" he asked. Dr. Quayle characterized Hamlet as "the man of duty." and the only one in all Shakcpeare's books. Macbeth was referred to as the man of conscience. Dr. Quayle, with rare dramatic force, portrayed Macbeth's ravings as with tottering reason ho talked with those about him. The lecturer also discussed the politician, statesman, soldier and aristocrat among the characters found in Shakspeare.

A LESSON IN VALUES OLLAR for dollar, pound for pound, there is more in Ivory Soap than in any household soap. It is easy to find a cheap soap; but to find purity and low price in a single soap
is not easy. They combine in Ivory Soap. You can afford to use it in the laundry; you can not afford not to use it elsewhere. It is vegetable-oil soap, in the cheapest form in which it can be procured. You pay nothing for a fancy box, wrapper or perfume. It is all in the soap! It floats.

THE SlD AY-SCHOOL LESSON. April 7f 11H1: The Resurrection of Jenas Luke xxiv, 1-12. "With myrrh and with aloes. We balmed and we bathed him, Lcvallv. lovingly. Tenderly pwathed hlrn: "With cerecloth and band Por the grave we arrayed him; But Oh. He ia gone Frrm the place where we lall him. Ooethe: Scene of Ea-ter Uells, in Fau?t. When the facile pen of Charles Dickens dropred from his hand in the midst of the writing of hi "Mystery of Edwin Drood." a sensation of regret was felt by his admirers that he had left a stcry half told. Had the evangelist! laid down their pena before narrating the resurrection, it would not have been a pausing Fen?atlon of regret, but the universal human heart would have been torn asunder between faith and douM. There is so much upon the sacred rape to Indicate divinity, but the glorious peal to It would be lacking. The unfinished mysUry of Jesus Christ would have plunged each succeeding generation of readers into grief and despair. The lament of the disciples on the way to Emmaus would have been the world's refrain: "We thought It had been Re who should have redeemed ua. But how can an unrisen Favior save?" Hall, O hall, to the day which caw the Lord artee! "O day of days! shall hearts set free No minstrel rapture lind In thee? Thou art the sun of ether dayp; They ihlne by giving back thy rays." With Joy and confidence we turn to the fourfold narrative of the resurrection. No unfinished mystery is here. That last event essential to the symmetry of the divine person Is told with incontestable truth. Kach evangelist, from his own point of view, narrates the sublime event independently of the rest. What one lacks, the others supply. Each gives some minor touch caught upon the sensitive plate of his own individuality. So from the four pencils groweth the ever-living picture of the soul th rising Christi From the four gospels the circumstantial evidences of the resurrection of Jesus may be gleaned and arranged as follows: I. The reality of Jesus's death. Insured by (1) Discipline cf the Roman soldiers, (2) Malice of the Jews. (3) Body not taken by friends: Proved by their transparent ingenuousness. Their surprise and grief at finding the grave, as they supposed, rifled. (4) Body could not have been taken by any one, friend or foe. (a) Because of the- absolute and proverbial discipline of lloman soldiers, whose lives were the forfeit. (b) Because the position of the grave clothes unwrapped, folded, laid in separate heapand In orderly mannersIs utterly inconsistent with a theft of the body. (C) Formal report of centurion. Hence the reappearance of Jesus not the t result of recover?" from swoon or collapse. II. Jesus tomb empty on third day. (1) Fact admitted by friend and fae. (2) Mistake impossible. One body only in tomb. That body gone. (3) Body not taken by enemies. No object !n removing it. Their purpose to keep it in the tomb. Had they removed it. could have refuted etory of resurrection by reproducing the bod j'. Q. E. D. Jesus Christ arose and came, forth from His tomb of Ills own jower and will. No event of human history Is more completely verified, more incontestably authenticated, than the resurrection of Jesu from the tomb of Joseph of Arimathea, In the garden r.ear to Calvary. If that circumstance, as related by tho evangelists, can Le Impeached, then any page of history can be Impeached by the same nu-thod. In this circumstantial narrative full of incidents that at fir.t glance st-em trivial, but eoon appear each in Its proper place an Irrefragable link in the mlghtient chain of evidence ever forged. It 1 as if one heats the Master's voice to His doubting dlsciplies In each generation: "Beach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust It Into my side, and be not faithless, but belltvlng." THE TEACHER'S LANTERN. The absolute ingenuousness the austolle ' company is manifest in the women's errand. They were no party to the opening of th tomb or removal of the body. What they had In their hands was etrlking and material testimony of their unfeigned openness. They came to minister to tht? dead, to complete embalmment. Their perplexity and grief at findlr.g the tomb apparently rifled complete th evidence of thdr candor and truth. The evidence t,f the Ingenuousness of the apostles thenikelves is equally etrong. The women's report temeJ idle talk. Thy were not Inclined to receive it; rather the contrary. In th Iliad of woes attendant upon the crucifixion they had forgotten Jesus' assurance tht h would rie the third day. If lenifmtertd. a spiritual significance was attracted to It. Here was no hasty and credulous acceptance of an agreeable hypothecs. It rt-pjir-d repeated appearances, under th greatest pt!bl variety of conditions, to establish the fact of the resurrection In the apostles' m!nl.v fho testimony of uch wittiest-, given under conditions like these, and of record In form, th authenticity and genuinns of which is unimpeachable, has had overwhelm Irt weight In each generation, and as widely as published. The resurrection of Jefjs In the confessed cornerstone of the Christian system. If He be no? The close commercial relations between the United States and Denmark constantly bring up new Interests in different liehis and new goods are constantly added to the lint of imports. Recently the large landed proprietors have commenced to introduce .American auall ou their estate. The Dan
risen, it Is built upon a lie; faith is vain; apostles are false witnesses'; spiritual resurrection ol the body a mockery; those who died In the false hope, are annihilated. "But!" thank Clod for that strong and inspired adversative of the master logician! "He Is risen;" The fact remains! That, too, after two millennium o! criticism. On the diamond pivot cf that blessed conjunction "but" the whole case swtngt the other way. Preaching is the power of God; faith is e-ffectual; apotles are true witnesses; the Fnlritual resurrection of the oul from sin li assured. Christ Is the first sheaf of the universal resurrection harvest. The event the worlj celebrates on Easter transposes Its dead march Into a Hallelujah chorus. Funeral plumes can never nod ho ominously again. There Is a sliver lining to all the somber drapery of the tomb. Sorrow can never again b hopeless. All our Easter lilies are silver trumpets nia'-ilng th. warm air vocal with their happy annunciation. "He is risen!" "Death, where is thy sting?" "Grave, whore is thy victory?" "Thank be t God who givt-th us the ictory through the resurrection cf our Lord Jesus Christ!" Key and Analysis. I. The women approach the tomb. II. The tomb found oien and empty. III. Angelic apiearance and announcement. IV. Woman's faith; man's incredulity. V. Peter's Independent exploration. MOSAIC FROM THE COMMENTARIES. Abbreviations American, A.; Alford, Alf.

Topic for April 7s Dead to Sin. Alh( to Chrlat Hph. it, 1 IO. Edith M. Thomas, In a charming xvern. finda a cluster of Easter lillej, and complains cf thcii pullor and coldness, fit emblems of fear and grief and death. The poet lifts the shaf cf llowers, and lo! it falls apart, and discloses at its heart the red ro of l.fe. That is indeed the Easter message and that 1. the word we need. A little girl was passing through a graveyard when her parents 1M her D a beautiful statu of ChrUt. Said the little one, "I cannot bear to look at Him. I have dona so many wrong thing" It is just for this reason we need to look at Illm, and to remember the EasteC lesson. How our tins rise up again.st Ui! There Is a most significant tory of a smuggler, 'with a caigo cf smuggled tobacco. Through his teletccpe he saw a reenu cutter bearing swiftly down upon Mm, and to have Ms ship and h.a freedom he ordered all the tobacco thrown overboard. His orders were nearly carried out, and he was laughing to think how he had outwitted the revenue orticers, when a subordinate tarn running to him, his face as white as a shet.t. "What's the matter?" cried the captain. "Ou. sir," was the reply, "li'x overboard, but it won't sink!" That is the way with cur six;. They i-ersifct in rising up againvt us. We cannot kill them. Ah, but we can die to them. We can entte Into the glad mystery of Christ's ttunein-nL. We can hang ujxtn His cront. We can entr His tomb. We can rle therefrom in nentic of life. I am well aware that this is ail inranlngla to a self-satisfied man. But when a man has almost died fighting against sin. wnen heuit has failed, whm ho has fallen year after tar under tho same loathed temptation, when honr, fear, thought, pruduice, will, have all proved powerbss MKalnxt the sin, then, ah! then the w-A-etest thing in the world is to sink into th hadow of Calvary.
