Harry Morris's Burlesquers, 2 and S p. m. Waterloo' In IrvlnK'n mil. Dram Stoker, manager of Henry Irving and Ellen Terry, telegraphed yesterday to Ad F. Miller, manager of English's Opera House, that Mr. Irving has decided to add "Waterloo" to the bill for next Monday night. This short play will be presented as a curtain-raiser preceding the performance of -The Merchant of Venice." This arrangement means a double bill for both nights of the Irving-Terry engagement, for t n Tuesday night Miss Terry will act in the comedy of "Nance Oldneld" in connection with Mr. Irvlng's performance of "The Hells." The sale of seats for these performances, which will be regarded by most serious play-goers as the principal events of the season, will open to-morrow morning at 9 o'clock. Two Xew Then tern for w York. i wo new theaters are in prospect for NewYork. One is to be built by Klaw & Erlanger and the other by Kirke La Shelle. The former will be named the Majestic, and will be situated on West" Forty-first street, near Seventh avenue. It will be ready in December next. It will have seats for two thousand perrons and is intended principally for big spectacular shows like "The Sleeping Beauty and the Beast," which was imported from London's Drury-lane Theater for New York's amusement this winter. Marc Klaw says of the plan: "There will be dressing room accommodations for more than seven hundred persons, who will be made unusually comfortable. For instance, there will be elevators from the stage to carry the actors up to their dressing rooms and back, so that there will remain no necessity for climbing narrow and precipitous stairs. Underneath there will l a double cellar with hydraulic apparatus. ?o that whole scenes may be raised or sunk on signal, as the occasion may demand." Klaw & Erlanger now deal almost exclusively in musical comedy and spectacles. They are the managers or "Ben-Hur" and the Rogers Brothers. They are prominent members of the theatrical syndicate and conduct the booking feature of that organization. Nixon fc Zimmerman, of Philas lnhia. alto of the ' trust," will be interested In the new Majestic. Kirke La Shelle, it is reported, is backed by a syndicate of Chicago capitalists in his scheme to build a theater on Forty-third street, adjacent to Hammercteln's Victoria Theater. It is to be ready fur occupancy In November of this year. This manager is Independent of the syndicate, though he is on good terms with it. Not many years agv lie was a newspaper reporter in Chicago. He engaged in the theatrical business both as a writer for librettos for musical comedy and as a. business manager. He became manager of Frank Daniels and since then has readied out in several directions. The rich "Arizona" is Mr. li Shelles enterprise and he presents the veteran Stoddart in "Beside the Bonnie Brier Bush." The original "Arizona" company will sail for London this month, and after its season there it will return to New York to open Mr. La Shelle s theater. Eugene lowle and Allee Meinen. Eugene Cowles announces that he is going to England to study grand opera, preparatory to becoming a member of a company which will present grand opera in English at Covcnt C. ml. n next winter. while he is studying he will sing in concerts in London. Ho really is more musician!- than most of the American comic opera singers. For years he was the basso of the Bostonlans. and he deserted that organization for the Alice Nielsen Opera Company. lie remairu-d with it until it was disbanded in London, and th-n eame home to sing in the, vaudeville t lit a tors this winter. Miss Nielsen, by the way. has be-n studying assi luotisly in London. She is done with comic opera, and will make, her debut as an "artiste" on the 11th of next month ut Queen s Hall in one of Robert Newman's hymphony orchestral concerts. She will ping with tl.U orchestra for a year, and then expects to enter the grand" opera at 'overt Garden. So it may le that Mr. Cowles ar.

I thought I was rr. r. ly piving him a power of attorney to transact some business for me while i went to Europe for my health, but when I returned home, to my great surprise, I found that he claimed ownership of these rights. The suit will conic up lor trial next month.'' The suit was hied in Ramsay county, Minnesota. Out of Wilde rin Revived. A dispatch from London last night said that George Alexander had revived, at the St. James Theater, Oscar Wilde's "The Importance of Being in Earnest" before a large and enthusiastic audience. Mr. and Mrs. Kendal, Sir George Lewis, Mrs. Beerbohm Tree, Anthony Hope and many other fashionables, writers and arti.-ts were present. Frequent recalls marked the performance, and, unlike most of the recent "first nights" in London, not a hiss was heard. The programme slated that the play was "by the author of 'Lady Win'iemere's Fan,' " and the management of the theater cxplaimd that when Wilde was dying in Paris he requested that his plays be so billed whenever they should be presented after his death. La?t night was the first time one of his plays had been acted in London since his trial In "Old Bailey," though many persons believe that "Mr. and Mrs. Daventry," presented by- Mrs. Patrick Campbell not long ago, was written by him. Its announced author was Frank Harris. Bernhardt a net Itejane. Mme. Rejane has returned to Taris, after having acted in Constantinople, Athens, Rome, Naples, Florence and Milan. The Sultan of Turkey Invited her to appear before him, but she was unable to accept because of her engagements. Her prestige In Paris has gone higher, and she has been dubbed Bernhardt II. Sarah Bernhardt has not appeared on the stage of the Comodie Francaise, the national theater of France, for twenty years, but she will be seen there soon on the occasion of the farewell performance of Mme. Barretta-Worms. The latter Is one of the prominent Comedle Francaise players, and years ago she entered the dramatic profession on the advice of Bernhardt. Adah Richmond on-Sulted. BOSTON", Jan. 7. Adah Richmond has been nonsuited In her claim against the estate of the late John Stetson, and the case, so far as she Is concerned, is at an end. The consent growing out of the marital and alleged marital affairs of the late financier and theater owner has continued ever since his death four or five years ago. It has been ended so far as the law courts aie concerned, except for two or three small suits. A Justifiable Protest. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: It would be a great pleasure to us In Indianapolis to see Mrs. Patrick Campbell and Henry Irving and Ellen Terry in plays that are not hackneyed and worn out here. The plays proposed for them are perfectly worn out In this community. Mrs. Patrick Campbell has a long list of plays that we have never seen, and Henry Irving ha3 never played "The Lyons Mall" here. Every time that Irving comes he disappoints us with an old or poor play. Let us have this changed. Indianapolis, Jan. 7. PERSONAL AND SOCIETY.

Simple Toilet Remedies. New England Farmer. This is the season when daily conflict with coal ashes and dish water makes the housekeeper's hands as rough as a nutmeg grater. She is lucky if they are merely rough and not cracked and sore. Neglect to dry the hands thoroughly when washed and harsh towels are good causes for this state of the skin. So also is the neglect to cover the hands when working in the cold, like sweeping or hanging out clothes; old gloves with finger tips cut off are excellent protection. Some simple things are good helps to prevent or cure rough hands. Keep a cup of corn meal handy and after washing the hands with some nonirritating soap rinse in clear water and partially dry them; take some of themeal and rub in and over the hands like soap until It has taken all the black from the pores of the skin. Now a healing wash may be rubbed in which is made from equal measurements of glycerin, rosewater and lemon juice. A piece of pumice stone or soap that costs 5 cents will last for years and will remove bad stains that soap and meal have little effect on. There is nothing better for hands that are in a very bad condition than mutton tallow that has been melted and strained. Rub it in, thoroughly warming the hands while eloing so, and the skin will heal and soften in a few hours. If nine-tenths of those who read these simple remedies already know them well it Is yet worth while to help the other tenth who have to suffer, give up fine sewing and silk embroidery and even society, as one woman declared, whose hands were red and rough from November to May. A Reward of Ylrtne. Washington Post. The girl who always wants to teach men their duty grates on my nerves. She came down from Capitol hill with me the other day, and the thing that happened to her did me a world of good. The car was filled before we began the descent of the hill, and in the seat beside the girl sat a rather shy-looking man. Just opposite the Capitol a stout woman of scarcely middle age came in. There was no seat for her, but she seemed not at all disturbed by that fact till the girl bounced up and offered hers. The woman demurred abouc taking It. It Isn't every woman, you know, that cares to have such obvious deference paid her age by junior members of her own sex. However, the elder woman sank into the seat and the girl helped herself to a strap with an air of conscious virtue. It was the man's cue to give the noble creature his seat, but he didn't do it. He merely sat back comfortably and casually regarded her raglan. His content was not a particle disturbed. Down about Fifth street the car stopped to let on one of the prettiest examples of sweet-and-twenty I've seen in an age. She was all a-flufT of violet-scented chiffon and frills. The man took one look at her and then gallantly surrendered his seat. The raglan girl stood till the car reached Fifteenth street, and I haven't a doubt her thoughts were of the long, long variety. Art of Mnklnpr Coffee. New York Commercial Advertiser. The boiling or leaching of coffee Is entirely a matter of taste. Coffee so soon loses its aroma, which is Its best quality, that twenty minutes after it is made coffee is a very Indifferent beverage. If drunk immediately after it is made coffee is the most delicious of all beverages, and it is Just as good boiled if it is served at once as it is leached. Indeed, many like it better. If it must stand any time after making it is better to leach it; this is done perfectly only in a French coffee pot. Coffee soon loses Its flavor and becomes bitter If allowed to stand on the grounds after boiling. A good rule for making coffee is to measure a tablespoonful for the pot and one for each cup. This Is for breakfast coffee. After-dinner coffee should be made the same. The cups are so much smaller that it will be enough stronger. In boiling coffee put the required quantity In the pot with an eggshell and one cupful of cold water. Stir it briskly with a spoon, then rinse the coffee from the spoon into the pot with a dash of cold water. As soon as the water in the teakettle boils fill as many cupfuls as are required from the kettle, pour the hot water over the coffee, pat on the cover, stand the pot over the gas flame and just when the (offee boils three seconds dash a little cold water in to settle it. Let it stanel a minute, then serve. A Toothsome Salnri. Country Gentleman. A nut and potato salad Is a hearty dis?h that with brown bread sandwiches may make the chief part of a luncheon menu for the family board. The ingredients are four potatoes boiled and sliced while hot; one cupful of English walnut meats, though other nuts may be used if preferred; a slice of onion, a blade of mace, a bay leaf, a half teaspoonfu! of salt and a French dressing. Boll the nuts, salt and seasoning ten minutes in enough water to cover; drain and blanch the nuts in ice water, afterwards drying thoroughly. For the dressing mix together a half teaspoonful of salt, a quarter teaspoonful of pepper and four tahlespoonfuls of olive oil. adding slowly, while stirring, one tablespoonful of vinegar -and a half tetspoonful of onion juice. Mix the nuts and potatoes and pour the dressing over. Serve cold on a bed of watercress. DEFENSE OF TRUSTS. What C. M. Nchwnl I Alleged to Have Told a French Reporter. PARIS. Jan. S.-Le Journal prints a lon Interview this morning with Charles M. Schwab, president of the United States St--el Corporation, who defends trusts as a necessary outcome of an advanced state of civilization. Mr. Schwab says that the countries where trusts do not exist are destined to abandon the struggle for commercial supremacy. He says that the trusts have ro'hir.g to fear from socialism and that American workmen are better oaiil and hairier under the trust system. When

people cam good wages, he says, their rights do not trouble them. Mr. Schwab said further that the commercial power of the United States was tinlimited and unllmitable; he will inundate France with her products and force the French industrial classes to abandon the struggle. America is only beginning. The old world has no idea what the United States will become a quarter of a century hence. All here belongs to the middle ages.
