The season of vaudeville at the Grand Opera House opened yesterday. The afternoon audience was of comfortable size, and In the evening the regular patronage was expanded by two hundred members of the local lodge of Elks, who attended the performance in a body as a compliment to .Mr. Hro on, the manager of the theater, who is a California Elk. Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Drew and Mile. Emmy and her trained lugs appear on the bill. ( n of th most pleasing points about the c'oings of Mile. Emmy's dogs is that they nave high spirits and tails the latter tetng the outward sign of the former. Their trainer encourages thorn with little French exclamation and signals to them by tapping on the platform. The mors are fox terriers with the excej)tion of one that wears a eiovv.i's eil!;ir. and they are as clean and their pink ribbon neckbands are mm bright as if they were meant for the lap. The tricks are gracefully and eagerly performed. luvender and Tom son. Kelly ami Violette und Alf Molt are the conventional comedians of the bill.

especially one largely composed of women and children. Mile. Taglione has an elaborate scene in which she dances. Her danee are entitled -The Dance of the Spider," "The

House of Flames" and "Fairyland." She te. not use th old voluminous skirt ex empt In "The House of Flame, but de pends successfully on her grace and pan tomime, anil produces beautirui pictures. The Gollma ns. musicians, did not arrive In time for the afternoon performance, but they took their place In the programme at nltiht. The team consists of a man ami a woman, the former in evening dress and the latter in a spangled costume that suggests contortion rather than music. They play a good class of music on the xylophones. but use the old tunes when they work their trick instruments. They pleased the audience partly because of their merit and partly because the theater lacks an or chestra this season, and the instrumental music was prateful to the ear. Few vaude ville theaters in the country have orches tras and the management of the Grand decided to do without one this season. A piano, played by a vaudeville pianist, whose art is more vigorous and quick than any other sort of pianist, stands where the orchestra used to be. The change seems strange to an Indianapolis audience, but no doubt the Grand's patrons will become used to it. Dnngernn Paris Shown nt the Pnrk. In the "Dangers of Paris," a melodrama played at the Park Theater yesterday, the patrons of that house have a piece which is full of the sensationalism that is to their liking. The play abound. in "climaxes." In these the players receive applause or jeers, whichever be fitting to their parts. Many changes of scenery are made and each does Ju-tice to the play. In tho opening scene, a cafo chantant, of Paris, the promise of elaborate scenery. i? made good. In this place the plot of the play takes life and begins to show the clever work of the villian. Captain Louis Brigand, of the French army, who5e only object Is to live like the princes. In his schemes h is assisted by a cast-off sailor, Antolne Larouche, whom Brigand has kept, closely in his grasp to further his interests by sypiuK on his victims for the love of a few francs. Brigand seeks the marriage of Clarle Dumont, daughter of the minister of police of Paris, who is an only child and who will become the heiress of her father's wealth. Miss Dumont is desperately in love with a poor American artist, Henri Martin. All appeals of Brigand's to win the love of the girl are futile and he has his accomplice In crime. Antoino Larouche, place anarchistic papers in Martin's pockets and then cause his arrest. In tho second act a great strugsle for life takes place between Brigand and Pierre Valjean, another artist, who is Martinis friend. It is the desire of Valjean to thwart Brigand's dastardly work in trying to foment the charge of anarchy against Martin. A change of scene presents the house tops of the Latin quarter. On the roof of Martin's studio. Brigand and Valjean come in combat and Valjean pitches Kripand over the eaves of the house. Url-K.-tnd is saved from death by falling on telegraph wires. Another scene Is a bottle works in operation, the furnaces glowing and the men at work. Here again Brigand and Antoine Larouche. face Valjean and his friends. The last scene represents the Paris Exposition with its canals and beautiful buildings lighted up for the evening. In this scene Brigand and Larouche are outwitted and go to their death in the river Seine. Martin wins his bride. Jules George is Captain Brigand, Joseph Green is Valjean and Miss Lydia Powell plays Mile. Dumont. The company is large. "Innocent Maids'' at the Empire. The managers of the "Innocent Maids, which, silly as It may seem. Is the name of the company that began the week at the Empire Theater yesterday, arc more am bitious than most of their fellows. They have the names of two play-makers dis played in typo under the titles of the two burlesques, "A Wooden Woman" and "A Lottery Ticket." George Totten Smith, who writes a gTeat deal of this sort of thing, is responsible for the tirst playlet, and Joseph Le Brandt, who is the author of several melodramas, constructed the second. Both have more continuity of in cident and brighter dialogue than is usual for rieces of the kind. A great deal of music is used in the entertainment and most of the songs are new here. The chorus is capable and active and changes costume about every live minutes. Miss Constance Wlndom sings most of the solos and has a place in the olio. Sev eral years ago she came here from Cincin nan io laite ine piace or a member oi a company at the Empire, who was ill. She was an unusual figure on the stage at the Empire because of her freshness her lack of the cynicism that overcomes most of the young women that make their living in the "variety." Until yesterday she had not made a second visit here. She is still pretty and "new" and carries through her songs brightly, but she is making the regular mistake of shouting instead of singing, which is painful to the ears of the audience and injurious to her voice. Another bit of individuality in the showIs the method of Joseph Morris, of the team or Uartell and Morris, musicians. He burlesques a Jew and sings parodies. At this he delighted both audiences yesterday, adding to the favor he and his partner gained with their ocarina duet. Miss Yale and Miss Carlin have that disagreeable quality which Miss Windom has not, and they please by guying each other and the men in the audience. Madden and Jess have little that is new in Irish burlesuue Bennett and Rich present an elaborate singing act that opens with a camp rcene and closes with picture-songs. The bill of specialities ends with the Carl Dammann troupe of acrobats, one of the best in the business. Mr. Sothern'a Xew Piny. NEW YORK, Sept. 9. Mr. E. II. Sothern opened his season to-night at the Garden Theater, presenting Mr. Lawrence Irving's "Richard Lovelace." a play written about some few of the facts of the seventeenth century soldier-poet's life. People who are fond of Lovelace's lyrics will be delighted with their frequent and usually skillful Introduction. The first two acts of the play, really one, for there is no logical break at all in scene or interest are for the most part charming. Mr. Sothern as Lovelace finds and loves his "Lucasta" Lucy Sashverell, a part delightfully played by Miss Cecilia Loftus. There Is some discrepancy here for before Jhe knows him she is" reciting the very verses which in actual life the cavalier wrote to her. One easily forgives this in the pleasure of Miss Loftus's performance. In the third act. when sick, poor and friendless, years afterwards he H found by her and there is nothing but sorrow. Mr. Sothern is quite equal to the change, but Miss Loftus. though charming still, is lacking in strength. He voice is no longer always pleasant and musical. The cast is small and the minor parts are intelligently taken. The play is perhaps too sad. too harrowing to achieve the greatest popularity. Note of the Stnue. "Paul Wilstach's new play. "A Capitol Comedy." which Mr. Tim Murphy and Miss Dorothy Sherrod and their company will present at English's Opera House Frida v and Saturday, was first acted in Columbus, O., a few days ago. Th newsprint r c ritics of that city pronounce it a natural comodv rising from incident rather than dialogue. Mr. Murphy seems to have found a good medium. A new musical comedy. "The Liberty Belles." has been produced by Klaw S: Erlanger. The book was written by Hurry B. Smith and tells a story of sixteen seminary girls that desert and start a cooking school. The sixteen girls form what is known as the "chorus " and vet have individual parts. Etta Butler and Sarnlol Milliken are the most important of the girls and Harry Davenport and John Slavin are the principal men in the company. The music was written by A. B. Sloane. Aimee Lachaume. H. T. MacConnell and William Accoe. xxx William Gillette, who began at the Lyceum Theater in London last night to p!.ty "Sherlock Holmes," had great expectations to meet, but he answered them with the exception of a persistently violent gallery that interrupted the performance during every act by "booing" and at the finish endeavored to prevent Mr. Gillette from making a so-ech. Mr. Gillette, after standing motionless for six minutes while a part of the gallery roared its insults ami the other portions of the house applauded, said: "Dr. Doyle Is absent an. I in a safer place. I have tried to prtsnl the charact r he created without much damage ar.-l in the praise to-night there is enoimh left for me. I feel that I am among friends.'' XXX Charles Frohrnan is put to great trouble to protect his play. "I'n.ler Two Fas." which was written for him by Paul Potter

The above picture of the assassin Czolgocz is printed in the Journal in tho Interest of the government secret service officers. Jt is their desire that as many persons as possible shall become acquainted with the features of the assassin, since he has lived in different parts of the country, and persons who have known him. recognizing the picture, may aid tho government officials in unearthing any anarchistic plot that may have existed against the life of the President.

from Ouida's novel of the same name. The other day Mr. Frohman's Chicago agent had a manager arrested for using the play without authority. Now Mr. Frohrnan has obtained an injunction against the American Stock Company, of New York, for using the sand-storm scene in the version of "iTnder Two Flags" that it is playing. This scene was invented by Mr. Potter and is not in Ouida's novel. Only once before has this action been taken. Dion Boucicault dramatized "The Collegians" and called the play "The Colleen Bawn." He took the celebrated water cave scene from his own imagination and protected it In the courts against plagiarists. PEKSONAL AND SOCIETY. Miss Bonnie Summit left yesterday for a visit in Buffalo.

A delicious sweet pickle is made from overgrown cucumbers that cannot be used as a salad. Ripe cucumbers, or, as tiie growers call them, seed cucumbers, are also used for making this pickle. Peel the cucumbers; cut them in quarters lengthways; scrape all the seeds out. Put the cucumbers after removing the seeels in a large saucepan with enough cold water, well ' salted, to cover them; staml them over a slow fire and let them simmer gentlv till teneler enough to be easily pierced with a broom splint; then carefully lift them from the water and lay them in a stone cock. Put enough vinegar to cover the cucumber in a saucepan over the tire; to -.-ich pint of cider vinegar add a gill ef Tarragon vinegar; add a few whole allspice, as many whole cloves, one bav leaf to each half pint of vinegar, a pinch of cinnamon broken in small bits an two or three blades of mare. When the vine gar begins to boil add enough sugar to make- it pleasantly sweet. As soon as the sugar has dissolved pour the vinegar while hot over the cucumbers. They will keep any w here. TiicKm lis Trimming. Nw York Peist. The tucking of fabrics of every descrip tion has become a tine art. Rows of perfectly laid tucks em a gown are one of the most economical ways of trimming it. None the less is it desirable from a decorative itoint of view, antl it is reallv wonderful how many chic and charming changes have been produced on waists, jackets, skirts, ami toilets entire by this simple yet effective means. The- fashion has lost not a shade in popularity, either her or abroad. There- are- wide, medium, narrow, and mere welt tucks, separate or in combination, tiieV- horizontal, vertical. (Matronal, with nr without rows of insertion between: in short. the mode is still but to Uses infinite, antl as a simple form of decoration It cannot be surpassed. It is now employed on ijowns annronriate to wearers of everv nee. from the infant in arms to the grandmother In caps and spectacles ir caps, by the way. were not condemned in these daws to total obscurity, and lorgnettes substituted for spe s by youiniui atttreei ' grandmam mas. Snue Ailvlee to Hutband. Chicago Host. It is said that the husband of a too hard working woman meets with little svm pathy. All the blame is laid on his shoul elers for her indiscretions. His own mod STation In labor 1? a re proach to him. "Big husky fellow." the neighbors exclaim: "why does he let Ids frail little wife work herself to death? ' A writer In Good-Housekeeping, discussing the situation, says that In most cases the question is not. "Why does he Jet her?" but, "How can he hinder her?" It Is useless to nsk this spendthrift of strength to save herself. She will pot do so until she is a physical bankrupt. She is

often the most unselfish of women and all her labor is for others. It does not occur to her that she has no more right to waste

the life that belongs to her family than she has to waste the money that belongs to them. Such a woman should be appealed to through her good sense and affection. Ask her if she is doing the right thing by you when she comes to the table too tired to eat, or drops asleep in the evening when you are reading aloud. Tell her you would not allow anyone to drive your horse too hard, and that she is worth more than a million horses. Tell her that the element of companionableness is something she will take to heaven with her when she dies, when her thriving farm and spotless house may be given over to weeds and cobwebs. Ask her if her children will be as proud of her when she is a worn-out, anxious, ailing old woman as they would be if she were the sort of mother that you had a right to expect her to be when you married her. It is impossible to save a woman from overwork unless she can be made to feel ashamed of it. Thing: to Ilememher. That the butter which is to be used in making cake should never be melted, but should be placed in a warm room until it is soft enough to use. Lemon juice, if sprinkled over Indian meal, will form with It a most excellent wash for the hands and will aid greatly in whitening them. Rub the hands with the moistened meal, then wash them and bathe them with glycerin lotion and they will become soft and white. Do not go to extremes. If cape collars are worn, do not have yours longer than any one's else. Do not wear the most brilliant-colored hose the shops afford when gay stockings are fashionable. Because low necks are the mode, do not go on the street in a gown suitable only for a ballroom. Hats cannot be too carefully chosen. When trying on a hat half close the eyes and get that blurred view which gives only the outline. Sec if the contour of hat and head is good, the lines graceful. This is a pood way to get the ensemble. and the grotesque effect of a tOD-heavv hat will be seen at once. To make good pastry all the ingredients should be very cold and should be mixed with a knife rather than with the hands. This is also the case in mixing- mayonnaise dressing if all the Ingredients, as well as the fork and bowl, are not icy cold, but they may be mixed with but little trouble when all the conditions are as they should DC.

Three hundred delegates are in attendance at the sixth annual convention of the National Association of the Local Fire Insurance Agents, now being held at the Hotel Victory. President George D.

DAY MAY BE OBSERVED SENTIMENT AGAINST POSTPONING INDIANA DAY AT IIIFFALO. Telegram lo the CoTcrnor from Scn alor Fairlinnkn and the Kiposition Mnnanement. Governor Durbin decided yesterday morning, after consultation with other state officials, to postpone Indiana day at the Buffalo exposition indefir.itelj'. last evening, however, telegrams were received by him from Senator Fairbanks and the exposition management that may cause the Governor to order the original plans carried out. The improvement In the President's condition is so marked that it is not thought there would be any indelicacy in carrying out the Indiana day. programme. Capt. Hoyt N. McCIain, of the Indiana National Guard, left for Buffalo yesterday with a large company of men in order to be on the ground ready for the event. Captain McCIain and his men will compose a part of the escort of honor for the Governor of Rhode Island to-morrow. All arrangements have been completed for the adequate observance of Indiana day at the exposition if it is held. Director General Buchanan is on the programme to deliver the address of welcome, to which Governor Durbin will make reply. James Whitcomb Riley will read his poem, "Old Glory," by special request. Senator Fairbanks has for some time past been at work upon his address, which will be the principal feature of the occasion. The ceremonies will take place in the Temple of Music, the building that has attained historic significance from the fact that President McKinley was shot within it last Friday. Early yesterday the Governor gave out a statement to the public concerning the postponement of Indiana day, as follows: inasmuch as the people of this country are at this moment greatly perturbed and in deep sorrow on account of the attempted assassination of President McKinley, it has been decided to abandon, or at least indefinitely postpone, the proposed celebration of 'Indiana day' at the Pan-American Exposition, originally dated to take place on Saturday, Sept. 14. This conclusion was reached after deliberate consideration, and is based on the belief that proper respect for the President leaves no other course open. "All arrangements for the observance of the day had been completed in a manner highly gratifying, but existing conditions are such that the cancellation of the date is expedient and in keeping with a proper conception of a situation brought about by the recent tragedy at Buffalo, where the ITesident still lies battling for life, with a hopeful, though not wholly assured, prospect of ultimate recovery." The following telegram was received by the Journal from Senator Fairbanks last night: "People hre are anxious that Indiana day should be observed. Other States are going right ahead with their programmes, as heretofore announced. The condition of the President Is such that there is no indelicacy in eloins this." Senator Fairbanks also telegraphed Governor Durbin to the above effect. The management of the exposition wired to the Governor last night: "The President is steadily improving. He expresses a desire to have programme carried out .without change. Rhode Island will have a jollification at exposition grounds to-morrow. I'hasc reconsider your determination to abandon Indiana day." A message from the secretary to tb President, Cortelyou. received at I'J:) o'clock last night was: "The President continues very favorable." Secretary Wilson said Governor Durbin was out of the city, and the matter would have to rest until this morning. H thoiif?nt there iniht be a decision to carry out the programme for Indiana day, either on the day for which it was originally planned or on some other day. Still Another Telegram. At 1:30 o'clock this morning the following telegram addresse-d to the Governor reached Secretary Wilson: "We ki.ow that It is the wish of the President that no interruption of stale elays shall occur. Vice President Roosevelt and all members of the Cabinet hope that the people of the States will carry out programmes heretofore planned before the dastardly attempt on the President's life. Cannot you make Indiana day a fine tribute to this sentiment? Any suggestions you may make will be very acceptable. The President is on the road to rapid recovery." The telegram was signed by John G. Milburn, preside-nt. and Edwin Fleming, secretary of the Pan-American Exposition. The matter will be decided by the Governor this, morning. FIRE AND CARNAGE.
