GRAND Vaudeville. 2:15 and 8:15 p. m PARK "'The Night Before Christmas." S and 8 p. m. EMPIRE The World Beaters (Variety), 2 and 8 p. m. Vaudeville at the Grnnd. Joe Welch's "Study from Life" (in the New York Ohetto), which Is a part of the hill of vaudeville at the Grand Opera House this week, is almost entirely new. A few bits will be remembered from his last season's budget, but they are offered In encores. His studies are so clpse that his audiences here do not take them in quickly, but while he is on the stage UsSfl Is steady, if scattering, laughter and applause. He is never out f the character of the humble, shy Jew. who has been painfully buffeted and who Is frightened evry time he steals an opportunity to smile. There are two songs, so constructed that they seem really to be the efforta of 1 he Yiddisher to Imitats the American coon song, and for that reason they do not hurt the legitimacy of the work. The "turn'' is full of diversion and Information. Homer Mason and two assistants. Miss Marguerite Keeler and Guv H Hubbard, present a sketch called "Hooked by Crook. " that originally was written for the Smart Set. Th y have the good sense to respect the playlet and they act it smartly and Intelligently. Mr. Mason has comic piano playing, and thin is skillfully inserted not dragged In by brute force Miss Keeler and Mr. Hubbard impersonate young persons of the smart set pleasingly. The young man has brought the young woman to bis flat to that be may have a chanct

to propose to her. A burglar has been enJoying himself there and he presents a revolver. He Is a whimsical burglar and he announces, after learning the relation between the two Intruders, that he will keep them in the flat until the young woman consents to become the young man's wife. Having been so disposed previously, she complies and the burglar leaves them some money he gathered up. They will need It more than he, he says. Mr. Mason Is a lively and Interesting caricature of a burglar and he keeps the sketch movlnir briskly to its end.

Charles Kenna offers a "one-man sketch" that he calls "The Fakir." He has a song with Interpolated reminiscences of circus ; "cappers" the lemonade man, the "gentlomanly agent who will pass among you selling tickets for the grand after-show, or concert." and other types. Then he drifts into general talk and song parodying. He has caught the personality of the brazen, quick-witted street and show fakir, and he should build his material around it legitimately. It is in that way this week's headliner. Joe Welch, has prospered. Henna's fakir Is recognised by every one, and he will be wasteful If he does not develop it. The good music is supplied by Mr. and Mrs. Waterous. Each has a solo and they close with a duet. Mrs. Waterous sings "Violets." and Mr. Waterous exercises his heavy bass in "Sailor. Beware." The duet is very well sung. They have worked intelligently with their voices, and that is a sign that they are new in vaudeville. With more style and a better selection of songs for Individual use they should go near the top. Their audiences yesterday demanded more than they had. Other music, produced by tricks, is furnished by Collins and Ma Dell. The tricks are novelties, but there is no real music. Miss Angle Norton, who has a bright personality, has been ill-advised. If she hopes to do well, she must not address her audience as "girls and boys." she must not tell the old and never funny joke about the exclamations of men that watch women when they lift their skirts on the streets, and she must get new and original stories and songs. With these improvements she would please extraordinarily; as it is, someone has given her a wrong idea of what she should do to get along In the vaudeville theaters. Roberts, Hayes and Roberts and Clayton, Jenkins and Jasper contribute two bits of rough but frequently funny burlesque. The first three are a father and a mother with a child about six feet tall. The child is precocious. When its father telephones for a nurse it says. "Have 'em send a blonde. Ask for Mabel." This vulgarity should be cut out. Clayton and Jenkins burlesque circus equestrianism, and Jasper, a donkey, helps them enthusiastically. The bioscope, with new pictures, closes the show. Melodrama at the Park. The Park Theater has a familiar play and a familiar player for the first half of the week. In "The Night Before Christmas" Elmer Grandln has the principal role that of a Judge who Is called upon to pass sentence of death on his own son, and afterward, as Governor of the State, to refuse to suspend the sentence when the members of his family, even the boy's mother, plead. Mr. Grandin personates this stern and heroic man with his characteristic force, which has given him a good place in the lower-priced theaters. The father's philosophy is of extremely Puritan brand. Returning home after a several months' absence, he discovers that his boy has been drinking and that he has fallen in love with a girl whose parentage is shadowy. Declining to recognize that the child Is not responsible for Its parents' wrong-doing, he refuses to consent to the young people's marriage. Then calamities follow fast. Algernon Smythe, a bank clerk and a villain, pursues the girl of doubtful parentage. On the night before Christmas she is helping to decorate the church. Here the villain Insults her and in the churchyard the girl's lover whips him. The villain, it seems, has led astray a wife as one act of his black past, and just after the hero has knocked him down the husband of this woman finds him and murders him. The Innocent young man is accused of the murder and is brought before his Spartan father as judge, tried by jury, found guilty and sentenced to the electric chair. Before the day of his execution, his father is elected Governor. The family begs for a reprieve for the Governor's son. The older man thinks he sees his duty and does it. He calls up the warden of the prison by telephone and tells him to proceed with the execution. But now the murderer, who Is almost dead of consumption, enters, confesses his crime and the Innocent man is saved. To add to the felicity, the heroine's parentage is shown to be as good as any one's else. "The Night Before Christmas" is a rural drama. It has the usual quota of homespun charcters. There are children that sing and dance, and the regular quartet, which booms the merriment at the Christmas eve party and takes part In the services at church. This melodrama will remain at the Park until Thursday, when a musical farce. "The Irish Pawnbrokers," will take its place. Variety at the Empire. The Empire Theater's entertainment this week is supplied by "The World Beaters," who give the usual first-part and afterpiece with a vaudeville olio Intervening. There is little of originality or cleverness In either burletta, but there is as much rough fun in the olio as shows of the sort may be expected to furnish. Tom Waters sings several songs, dances, tells a string of stories, plays the piano and finally introduces a dwarf named Maior Nowak, whom he kicks over the stage so vigorously that the gallery is delighted. The dwarf, too, seems pleased. This deformed man runs through one of the burlettas, too. Murphy and Mason make music on a number of different instruments. Bohannon and Carey have something new in the way of an illustrated song turn. The woman of the team stands in an illuminated cabinet while she sings, and when the pictures of a soldier song are thrown on the scene she shows herself in a white military costume with the glow of red. white and blue incandescents on her, Rogers and Hilpert show baton twirling, ending with torches on a dark stage. The four members of the Prentice family display acrobatic tricks that are familiar. The two burlettas are "The Matrimonial Tlub" and "T" e Wienerwurst Inn." The slender plots are old. There Is a long list of songs and the chorus makes frequent changes of costume. Improvements at English's. A new curtain has been hung at English's Opera House. It is of "French festoon drop" style, royal red In color and silk velour in texture. It is divided In the middle and is pulled up from either side to reveal the stage. On either half is the letter "E" in cloth of gold. The curtain weighs 1,500 pounds and cost $1,200. It was made In this city. The audiences at the performances of "The Burgomaster" next week will find not only the rich new curtain, but also new draperies in the boxes and other bits of fresh decoration that add to the comfort of the theater. A Rose o Plymouth Town. WASHINGTON, Sept. 8.-The theatrical season opened in Washington to-night and although the society element is still away from the city, there were good audiences. At the Columbia Theater "A Rose o Plymouth Town." a romatic comedy in four acts, was presented for the first time on any stage. It presents a simple freehand picture of life in Plymouth in the early part of the seventeenth century with a pretty love tale, in which Miss Minnie Dupree as Rose De La Noye, is the heroine. There are several exciting climaxes throughout the play, notably in the duel scene between Guy Bates Past, Miss Dupree's leading man. and Bennett Sturglss, her rival lovers, and in the Indian attack on Miles Btandtsh's house. Miss Dupree's display of emotional power won several encores. The play was well received. At the National Theater. "The Snow Girl," was given a cordial reception. The play is beautifully staged and abounds in an abundance of wit and lively airs. From Mrs. t'atherwood's "Lasarre." GREEN BAY. Wis., Sept. 8. One of the most interesting events in local dramatic history was the first production to-night of Otis Skinner's new play, "Lasarre." based on Mrs. Mary Hartwell Catherwood's romance. Not the least Interested spectators in the large and fashionable audience were six Indians from the Oneida reservation, including Skenedoah. the famous chief; Rev. F. W. Merrill, and Superintendent J. C. Hart, of the local Indian post. Another interested spectator was Mrs. Josephine Phillips, adopted daughter of the late Eleszer Williams, or "laiarre." the founder of the Indian mission here, and the alleged lost Dauphin of France, Ixuls XVII. who la believed to have escaped from the

temple in Paris and to have grown up in this country among the Mohawks and Oneidas. Mr. Skinner's star emboeliment of this famous local character created the greatest enthusiasm. It has all the elements of romance and picturesqueness and won the most spontaneous expressions of hearty approval. PERSONAL AND SOCIETY. Milton Edwards has returned to Peru. Mrs. John N.

HOTEL LOBBY GLEANINGS

OTTO GRESHAM SAYS CHICAGO HAS MOW A.N HOXEST COUNCIL. The Mnnlelpal League a Big Factor in Cook County Politics Visitors at the Hotels. Otto Gresham, of Chicago, who was here yesterday, says the Municipal League of Chicago is a strong issue in Cook county politics this year. This is a league composed of representative citizens who propose to see to it that none but honest men are elected to office. If the league suspects a man who Is on the ticket it gets his "record" if it is unsavory and puts these facts into circular form. These "records" are then sent to the voters. "I think we have a.bout the cleanest City Council in Chicago now that we have ever had," Mr. Gresham remarked yesterday. He is of opinion that "Billy" Mason, who will be up for election to the United States Senate again this year, is in great danger. His chief opponent is Representative Hopkins. Mr. Mason's record as being opposed to the administration in its management of the Philippines is being urged against him. He has stood with Senator Hoar on this question. Mr. Gresham says he thinks Mason and Hoar are right on the proposition. Mr. Gresham and his mother were passing through the city on their way home from Corydon, where they had been visiting Mr. Gresham's grandmother. IRRIGATION H THE WEST. MaJ. J. P. Doyle, Jost Retarned from the West, Talka of It. Major J. P. Doyle, who is a member of the Governor's staff and also of the staff of General Carnahan, commanding the Uniform Rank, K. of P., of Indiana, has returned from his trip to the K. of P. encampment at San Francisco. Major Doyle, while in the West, made some investigation of the agricultural and mining resources of the country. "The form of irrigation that is being carried on in California by the government as a sort of experiment is, to my mind, the most interesting feature of the West," said the major at the Denison Hotel last night. "I believe it is destined to produce the greatest results in the opening and settling up of the great Pacific coast. The plan of government is to erect large dams or reservoirs at the base of the mountains, the water from the melting snow to be conducted from these reservoirs by large irrigating ditches to each section of land. The land is to be sold at about $10 an acre, the actual cost of bringing the water. Besides there is a nominal water fee to keep up the cost of the ditches, etc. The money realized from the sale of this land is to be used by the government in the construction of additional dams and reservoirs for the reclaiming of other government land. In this way every foot of tillable land will be reclaimed to the advantage of the homeseeker who desires to invest in the lands sold under these conditions. The Irrigation bill Just passed, in my mind, far exceeds in a general advantage to the public, and will prove a greater revenue, I think, than the Panama canal bill. Those desiring to engage in farming and fruit growing cannot help but profit by this great measure. Fruit growing there. Just like farming here, is made successful by careful attention to the various crops. By aid of this irrigation the crops should be abundant and ought to be a paying investment to those who desire to take up the culture of fruits and diversified farming. I found the yield of both cereals and fruit far in excess of anything I anticipated. Large crops of nuts, olives and various small grains can still be increased in production by this irrigation. The old Spanish plan of irrigation was to dig circular or square holes around each orange and lemon tree and pour water into the holes. The new form of irrigation is to carefully cultivate the groves the same as one would a field of grain, plowing furrows through the cultivated parts, between the trees and allowing the water to run in these furrows. The trees are thus enabled to gather moisture without detriment to the fruit that is growing." Conditions Look Good. A. B. Hahn, of Richmond, who claims the distinction of having nominated Henry U. Johnson for Congress, was in Indianapolis. "Mr. Johnson is a simple lawyer, but a fine one," remarked Hahn, "and he is taking no part in politics this year. The Republicans are all right in Eastern Indiana, for I've been all over it. It doesn't make any difference who the Democrats bring cut in the Sixth district. James E. Watson will be elected. In fact, the whole State is all right. The other day 1 had occasion to drive from the town of Aurora and the man who drove me informed me he had always voted the Democratic ticket. 'Well, what are you going to do this year?' I asked him. 'I Just don't know what to do about it,' he replied. 'The fact is I've done better than I ever did, and I don't want to see a change.' 'Well, what do you think you'll do?" I asked again. I could see he was puzzled for a reply, but he finally said he'd do some more thinking about It and expected he would vote with the Republicans." Stranaje Words from a Democrat. "I'm sincere In saying that I believe the Democrats will control the next Indiana Legislature," said Senator Will H. Johnston, of Montgomery county, who was at the Grand Hotel last night. Senator Johnston is a Democrat, and insists that the House at least is going to be Democratic. He says he doubts If the Democrats will be able to carry the Senate. "I believe we will have majority enough In tne House," he said, "to overcome the Republican majority in the Senate and elect a United States senator to succeed Mr. Fairbanks. There is an abundance of good material to send to the United States Senate among the Democrats. For Instance, there is John W. Kern and Frank Shiveley. Either of these would make an excellent senator, and I don't believe either one would mind going." Mr. Johnston says the Democrats expect to make the apportionment. "What we'll do to the Ninth district will be a plenty if we get a chance," he remarked. Will Have Safe Majority. "If South Bend stands by Representative Brick like we expect her to, he will carry ! the Thirteenth district by 2.000 majority." remarked A. J. Dillon, of Rochester, Fulton county, who was at the Spencer House last night. With Mr. Dillon was J. W. Coleman, of Kosciusko county, another stanch Republican. They were laughing about what they termed the "pipe dreams" that are being printed about Mr. Brick in the Democratic State organ. "Brick will get 1.000 majority in my county," said Coleman. Both men were agreed on the proposition that there is no serious trouble in the Thirteenth district and that Brick will have a safe majority. Will Entertain Conventions. The Indiana Electrical Association, which meets In this city Sept. 17 and 18, will have its headquarters at the Denison. This hotel is also arranging to entertain the Central States Waterworks Association, which will have its headquarters at the Denison during the meeting here Sept. 22, 23 and 24. This association is composed of the officers of water companies in the principal cities of the central States. At the Hotels. William H. O'Brien, of Lawrenceburg, chairman of the Democratic state committee, was at the Grand Hotel last night. Hugh Dougherty, of Bluffton, a leading Democrat of the Eighth district, took lunch at the Grand yesterday. Deals in Real Estate. Charles T. Boyer yesterday sold to James M. Healy two eight-room dwellings at 312 and 314 Keystone avenue for a consideration of 16.000. Mr. Healy deeded to Mr. Boyer Lots 44 and 45 In Clark's subdivision

to West Indianapolis. Lots 4 and 5 in Mullaney A Cooper's addition to North Indian

apolis and Lot 30 in Brown's subdivision to Indianapolis. Robert Martlndale transferred to C. W. Schowmeyer the residence at 1609 Barth avenue for a consideration of $1.450. Mr Schowmeyer paying $850 cash and deeding ! Lot 60 In Schowmeyer's addition to Mr. Martlndale. The sales were made through the B. F. Cline agency. Waldo B. Rossettor sold to Andrew M. Robbards a lot on Alamaba street, near Twenty-fifth street, for $4.200. Charles L. Buschmann realized $4.000 from a sale of a lot on Pennsylvania street, near Twenty-fourth street, to Charles E. Johnson. CENTRAL LABOR SQUALL ATTEMPT MADE TO EJECT M. T. BITLER FROM THE HALL. President Feltman's Order Was Not Obeyed and the Storm Blew Over A Busy Evening. The meeting of the Central Labor Union last night was far from harmonious. It started out calmly enough, but a regular squall came up in the middle of the session that threatened quite a disaster for awhile. The storm lasted for several minutes, and even after the meeting adjourned there could be heard the murmurings of those who were not contented. The real trouble came up when a report was made favoring seating the delegates of the Photo Engravers' Union. Edgar A. Perkins and Edward P. Barry, members of Typographical Union No. 1, raised an objection on the ground that the Photo Engravers' Union had seceded from the International Typographical Union and under the laws of the American Federation of Labor could not be admitted. President Feltman, of the Central Labor Union, sustained this objection. The storm broke when Michael T. Butler, of the Sawsmiths' Union, asked the chair if there was not an element of Injustice in such an arbitrary ruling. President Feltman ordered Butler to take his seat, but the latter refused. The president then ordered the sergeant-at-arms to eject Butler from the hall, but Butler was still obdurate. The action of the president was opposed by delegates of the Machinists' Union, Carpenters' Union and others, who insisted that a gross injustice was being done the photo engravers. Delegates in all parts of the hall tried to talk and there was a clamor to gain recognition from the chair. Most of the delegates talked without being given permission. Butler was not escorted from the room, and the matter was referred to the committee on arbitration and credentials to decide if the photo engravers should be recognised in the Central Labor body. GRIEVANCE INVESTIGATED. The grievance committee reported that it had investigated the report made by the union of structural iron workers regarding nonunion men being employed by Contractor Fife on the West Washington-street bridge, and a meeting will be held next Thursday at which a satisfactory settlement will probably be made. The report made by the machinists that the International Employment Agency in this city was securing men to take the places of striking union machinists in Omaha was also investigated by the grievance committee. The agency claimed it had made no misrepresentations to the men, and if they were made the railroad company should be held responsible. The delegates of the Lithographers' Union were seated at the meeting. It was reported that only $107 had been contributed to the United Mine Workers' fund by Central Labor Union. The delegates of the Sawmakers' Union reported that a per capita tax of IV cents had been levied. The painters have contributed $35 and the Carpenters' Union $25. President Feltman. speaking for the Cigar Makers' Union, said the national organization is making arrangements to collect $40,000 for the mine workers. M. T. Butler, Henry Friedman and George E. Gordon were elected delegates of the Central Labor Union to the State Federation convention to be held at rivansville this month. An appropriation was made allowing each delegate $28.20 with which to pay his expenses. HOME DRESSMAKING HINTS. By MAY MANTON. "Slot seam" effects make a notable feature of advance styles and are both novel and effective as well as fashionable. The stylish blouse shown is of pastel green albatross with touches of black and white given by black silk laid under the plaits, and stitching with white corticelll silk. Tiny black and white buttons decorate the fronts, each side of the Princess closing, and a tie of black edged with white and a black belt held by a silver clasp give a smart finish. All waisting materials, wool, silk, linen and cotton are, however, appro217 Woman's Blouse, 32 to 40 bust.

The foundation lining is smoothly fitted and closes at the center front, but separately from the outside. The waist consists of fronts and back that are laid in narrow tucks, which are turned toward one another in groups of two and are stitched flat to form the "slot seams.' The closing Is effected beneath the left plait of the center group and is invisible.

Rosers, Parts with an Able LawyerOther College Newa. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. RICHMOND, Ind., Sept. 8. Earlham College will open its doors on Monday, Sept. 15, and on that day and the day following the students are expected to register and prepare for work. On Wednesday recitations begin. Although Dr. J. J. Mills, president of Earlham, has been very sick, It does not In the least mar the chances for a successful year. To-morrow a meeting of the board of directors of. the college will take place, and the duties which formerly belonged to President Mills will be divided among the trustees and the faculty. President Mills does not have charge of any department of study, but is the head of the institution. From the student's standpoint the work will be practically the same, and the Illness of the president will only mean that a larger amount of work will fall on the trustees. The outlook for a larger attendance Is very promising, and the board of trustees is satisfied that the year will be a very successful one. As soon as possible President Mills will probably be removed to some health resort, and, after a few months' rest, will return to assume his duties. There have been a few changes in the faculty. Prof. R. W. Barrett, who resigned his position as instructor in Latin to go to the I'niverslty of Pennsylvania, has been succeeded by Prof. C. L. Chase, of the I'niverslty of Iowa. Prof. Chase was assistant instructor of Latin in that university, and is a very competent man. Professor Barrett also had clu.rge of the students, and this work will now fall to Prof. Lawrence Hadley, librarian and instructor in history. Harlow Llndley, who is now away on leave of absence, will not be back to assume his duties this fall, and his work will be divided among the other teachers. STATE l.MVERSITY LOSS. Prof. W. P. Roajera, a Native of Bronn Connty, and an Able Lawyer. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. BLOOMINGTON. Ind.. Sept. 8.-The resignation of Prof. William P. Rogers as dean of the Law School of Indiana University, to accept a like position In the I'niverslty of Cincinnati, will take from Bloomington and southern Indiana one of its ablest young lawyers and most successful teachers. The career of Professor Rogers Is of unusual interest, as he is probably acknowledged the most prominent citizen that has come from Brown county and in that he is a srlf-made man in every sense of the word. Professor Rogers Is now about forty-six years old and his earliest recollections is on his father's farm in Brown county, where he was born, working as a farm boy, teaching school and 'later coming: to Bloomlngton to school. Often. Friday evenings, he would walk the entire distance, fifteen miles, home and return In time for school Monday morning. About this time his father lost all his property because of being on a county officer's bond, but this did not deter young Rogers from s king an education, and he worked his ray, keplnc 'batch" over an old storeroom that eost him nothing for rent. He first entered the practice and after establishing himself took a thorough course in the university, graduating only a few years ago. Perhaps the earliest recollection of Prof. Rogers of his childhood days Is during war times. His father was a sturdy I'nlon man in the hills of Brown county, and at that time Kni?hts of the Golden Circle were very bitter. Frequent threats were made against the Rogers family because of their loyalty, and many nights Professor Rogers, though only a mere child, stayed up until early morning, helping guard with guns the home and other pvoprty. 8o it is not necessary to say that he is a Republican in all that the word implies, and always willing to render asrlstance to the party so far as proper in his position.

Is it a complicated case? Thousands of such cases have been cured by " Favorite Prescription." Is it a condition which local doctors have declared incurable ?
