PARK Robert Mantell In "The Fact in the Moonlight." 2 and 8 p. m. EMPIRE Variety, 2 and 8 p. m.

The big spectacle. "Ben-Hur." will close Its run of three weeks with two performances at English's to-day. Thereafter the theater will be closed until the end of the month, when it will have "The Suburban" and J. H. Stoddart in "The Bonnie Brier Bush." A The vaudeville MB that closes at the Grand this evening is headed by Will M. Cressy and Blanche Dayne, who cleverly play a sketch by Mr. Cressy entitled "Bill Biffin's Baby." Carroll Johnson, the minstrel, and the Athos troupe of acrobats are among the other entertainers. xxx Mr. Mantell and his company gave two performances of "The Face In the Moonlight" at the Park yesterday, and will close their engagement with two performances of the same play to-day. In it Mr. Mantell Impersonates both Rabat, a thug, and Victor Ambrose, an innocent man accused of a murder done by Rabat. Mr. Mantell causes the men to be similar in physical appearance, but very unlike in personality. Numerous and quick changes of costume are incurred. The play is of a ort especially liked at the Park. All of Mr. Mantell's performances there have been attended by as many persons as have been able to get Into the theater. A X X Messrs. Weber and Fields and Messrs. Klaw and Erlanger are said to have bridged their disagreement and to have decided that when the former's burlesque company makes Its spring tour it will act in theaters directed by "the syndicate." The Independent Booking Agency was counting on the firm of Weber & Fields, it has been Understood, to help Mr. Flake, James K. Hackett and Miss Henrietta Crosman oppose the firm of Klaw Ac Erlanger and the other promoters that compose "the syndicate." Many persons used to reading In the newspapers condemnation of "the syndicate" and laudation of Mrs. Flske et al. for fighting the iniquitous organization, may well be puxzled now to discern difference between "the syndicate" and the coalition of Mrs. Fiskc, Miss Crosman, Mr. Hackett and other "independent" managers. There is a difference. "The syndicate" charges a booking fee and the "independents" do not. The small manager benefits. It is of little concern to the public. The average man or woman does not care whether an article Is trust made or not, If the price and quality be right, until It comes to the pastime of political dlscusilon. Good drama is scarce enough and the "Independents' " light is as feeble as "the syndicate's." xxx Charles E. Evans, partner of the late "Old Hoss" Hoey. is to be prominent on the stage again. He is soon to appear as principal of a company presenting "There and Back." a farce by George Arliss, the English actor, now a member of Miss Blanche Bates's company in "The Darling of the Clods." Mr. Evans is Interested with the Shuberts in two New York theaters. He was last here in a farce entitled "Naughty Anthony." which was offered in conjunction with "Madame Butterfly." XXX Rose Sydell's "London Belles" will give two more performances at the Empire today. Next week Harrv William ir 's "Imperials" will be the bill. MUSIC. NancaRiii and Pusrno. Seats will be sold, beginning to-day, at the Big Four ticket office. Washington and Meridian streets, for the concert to be

PRIZE FIGHTER'S HEART. Coffee Shown to Be the Cause off His Wenk Heart. Frank Wallis, the Illinois champion feather weight, says: "Nearly all my life I drank coffee, and It finally put me In such a condition that training for any fight was almost impossible. "My breathing was poor, und slight exertion always made me very tired. I could not understand it. for I was otherwise well and strong. until one day. !n training quarters, a friend and admirer of mine asked me if I drank coffee. 1 told him 'yes.' and be said that was what ailed me. "This was two weeks before an important fight of mine was du. He explained how coffee affected the heart and nerves, and told me of the good qualities of Postum Food Coffee. I immediately commenced to use it In place of coffee. The result was wonderful My nervousness left me, my breathing bothered me no more, my confidence returned, and 1 was as as ever In a short time. "I returned a victor of the light, which I am confident I would not have been had i continued tfce wse of cofUte."

Fairbanks. The interior of Faneull Hall, where the meeting was held, was beautifully decorated with flags and patriotic bunting festooned along the gallery and draped from the pillars. At the entrance to the auditorium hung a huge banner of blue inscribed in gold letters, 'Welcome to Our Honored Guest, the President General, L. . R.' "The conference was a State affair, and regents from many Massachusetts chaj : were present, as well as local Daughters. Mrs. Masury. Stat, regent, introduced Mrs. Fairbanks in a speech full of patriotism, in which special honor was paid to Faneull Hall and a pi. -a made for the children, that they might be brought up with high patriotic ideals. Sh- also spoke of the constant effort of Daughters for the recognition of the flag. "Mrs. Fairbanks' speech dealt with the topics nearest to D. A. R. interests, and urged a unity of interests and frequent conferences, and a whole-souled interest in whatever appealed to the society as an or.atlon. Seated 0 the platform with the speaker were Mrs. Anna T. West, vice state regent. Mrs. Greenleaf W.

LITTLE GIRLS' FINERY WHITE IS ALWAYS TO BE PREFERRED FOR THEIR REST GOWXS. Dafntinefta and Simplicity Should Be AlTiays he Rale What Roys Are Wearing. Correspondence ot the Indianapolis Journal. NEW YORK, Dec. ll.-Young folks' parties and Christmas are very nearly synonymous terms. The holidays without young laughter and happy childish voices would Indeed be like unto Ilamlct with the famous Dane omittod. The season belongs to the children. It is theirs by every right, and only when they are about and gay Hocks flutter here and there do we elders H ally feel the Christmas spirit, know any desp and abiding joy. To make one little BOS glad Is a privilege, to be enabled to carry the good will of the season to many is Indeed to be blest, and wise are those tiders Who are planning some dance or 1 rolle suited to childish tastes and wants. There are so many ways of making the deaf youngsters happy. It really means SO little effort and such a big reward! But I must not let myself wander or forget that my duty is to talk about clothes, of how to so dress the wee tots that they may resemble the fairies, with whom they surely BATS some affinity, of how to make the older girls happy with the pretty graceful frocks that are dear to the feminine heart even in its embryo stage. Insistently as toy mind turns to toys, to games, to Christmas dances, to brightly lighted trees. I must bear In mind the frocks the occasions bring forth, and write not so much of the fun as of the garments in which it can be enjoyed to the full. Wee girls, and In fact girls of all ages, wear white in preference to any color, although there Is always a sufficient number Of blue, pink and yellow gowns to give color and brilliancy to the picture. Preferably the tiny tots wear the simplest materials, line French nainsook, mull and simiiar cotton fabrics, but such simple silks as India and such soft wools as canvas veiling are St I n and not a few dancing frocks are of moussellne. One of the sweetest, daintiest creations for a young woman of four Is of French nainsook, with trimming of Valenciennes lace in narrow edging and inK rtion, and is to be worn with pink silk stockings and a sash and hair rihbonof pink louisine. The style of the frock is childishly lovely and free of fuss. The full sralsl is longer at the front than at the back, in what is known as Fnnch style, but less exaggeratedly so than was the case last year. The sQUaN neck is finished with rows of Insertion, below which fall the gathered frills that part at the center and f "rm the bertha, and the sleeves are short, full puffs finished with frills. The skirt Is straight and full, edged with two narrow gathered frills, each lace-edged, and a heading of insertion, and falls Just to the knees. The little neck and sweet, round arms are expected to be left bare, but a guimpe of lace and tucking can be added If it seems desirable to cover their dainty prettlness. The French dresses are favorites up to ten and eleven yars of age, but are not made with the exaggerated long waist that has become familiar under the name. Sashes are of color or white as the individual mother may d clde, but general cut and style Is much the same from four to ten years of age. whether this particular style or another is chosen. At twelve the girl seems to make a big step ahead, to I .o actual childhood and, while childish and simple still, to demand frocks that axa a ausa tax mnrm natura Xfca doooplna;

A lovely party frock, that is quite suitable for all ages from four to ten, Is of white mull with embroidered frills as trimming. The full skirt is simply gathered at the belt and is edged with three overlapping embroidered frills. The long waist droops and blouses stylishly at the front and is gathered, like the skirt, but shows a novel bertha that gives a V effect. The frills that form the bertha extend round the low neck at the back and over the shoulders, then is carried down to a point at the belt, the V being filled with tine tucking. Beneath this frock is worn I skirt of finest white lawn, lace-trimmed, and at the waist is, a white sash, the accompanying stockings being open-work white silk, the slippers white. As a rule guimpes are omitted for the dance, but, as I stated above, each and all of these frocks allow of adding one of lace and tucking when needed. Many children are too del i ate to bear the change of clothing necessary with the low neck, and no wise mother ever permits finery, no matttr how tempting, to interfere with her little one s well-being. Vi ry pretty compromises are effected by using a yoke of lace with elbow sleeves made to match the waist. Simple .is v try to keep the little folk their fashions always are affected by our own, and elbow sleeves, being much in vogue for grown-ups. are seen also upon the little people's frocks. Moussellne dresses are fairy-like and fascinating. They are seen in white over white, in white over color and in color over color, the undersllp being uniformly of China silk and edged with gathered frills. The material is lilmy and requires to be very full to give any good effect. A favorite method of treatment is to finely plait both skirt and waist, then pull out the plaits In the skirt to yoke depth and to closely shirr the mousseline. Pale pink so treated Is charming and blue and white are always in demand. Herthas' are made of the man rial plain, over silk. and lace edged. Many of the skirts are simply hemmed and tucked, but others show insets of lace, crepe de chine, liberty silk, China silk, and the softest of veilings, all being made on line similar to thos. USSd tor cotton fabrics. A most charming little dress in pale blue India is trimmed with a simple white laee and strve to illustrate the use of tine tucking. The skirt is edged with lace and insertion, then laid in tiny tucks for a depth, of approximately two or three inches. At the belt it is tucked perpendicularlv to form deep points. The waist is tucked at the upper edge and finished with a a e bertha and elbow sleeves formed bv overlapping frills lace-edged. With it is worn I yoke of lace and fine white muslin tacked and at the waist is a blue sash. A dainty and charming crep 1. chire is twde with a triple skirt and is trimmed with a tinv Honiton lace on all edges and frills. The first skirt is of China silk with a laceedsed frill of crepe. The second is full length and forms a frill. The third Is tucked In deep points at the b. It and is finished with th- lace. The waist is full w ith berth;i and si. vo formed bv three overlapping frills. On the uppermost skirt are applied small motifs of the lace, at intervals, above the lace edge. With the frock are worn a sash of white liberty ribbon, white silk stockings and slippers. Slippers and stockings for these little ones are ec. edingly dainty and often match either the frock or the h. but black pateat leather Is correct with gown and hose of any color. Stockings are silk, embroidered, plain, or showing open work. Colored and white slippers are ..f silk or kid, as FOR OLDER GIRLS. Older girls wear scarcely more elaborate materials, but affect waists and skirts, having foresworn the entire dress when the mature nge of twelve Is reached.

As dainty a dress as any girl could desire is made ot white point d sprit net. trimmed with Valenciennes lace and worn over a white or colored slip as fane? may decide, two or even three being made with each, so providing variety with the minimum of cost. The skirt is slightly Wpn d and edged with three laceedged ruffles, above which are insertion and a group of three tucks. The waist Is in baby style, cut out slightly to form a round neck, then closely shirred to form a shallow yoke, each row of stitches being COTered by insertion. The sleeves are in elbow style, shirred to fit the arm closely for half their length, then forming full, soft puffs. At the waist is worn a soft sash matching the undersllp. A quite different model Is suited to China, civpe and India silk and to veilings, both all wool and wool and silk. The skirt is five gored with a circular flounce. t each seam is a vertical group of tucks-, three each. The flounce is hemmed and inset with insertion heavy lace. The waist is the simple full one, which is far better than any other sort, but is tucked to form a yoke below the shallow square, and shows two insets of lace between the yoke and the belt. The sleeves are simplv full with frills at the elbows. With this frock, as I, saw it in rose pink voile, are worn knots or full rosettes of black velvet ribbon at the left of the corsage and at the belt, several strands of the velvet forming the belt and falling in streamers to the edge of the flounce. SIM Fid: M ATHH1ALS BUT. More elaborate frocks are of moussellne or of crepe de chine trimmed heavily with Venetian lace. A rather pretty one is white, with a bertha of lace at the round open neck and a wide applique at the edge of the skirt, but the best taste prefers simpler things for the girls who are still at school. A few years and they will be debutantes with a wide variety from which to choose, but for the present they are best dressed when their youthfulness is borne In mind. All the years of womanhood are before them In which to revel In silks and laces. For the time being they wtll may be content with the simple styles and materials that sidt them best. Sllpptrs and stockings are preferably black. Young girls of fourteen and sixteen are apt to be painfully conscious of their feet. Black tends to give an effect of reduced size and Is found more becoming than white or colors. Hose are as daintily fine and elaborate as circumstances allow. Slippers show high heels and deep pieces over the instep In colonial style, but are not replicas of those worn during last summer. Patent leather is the preferred material and is finished with silver, steel or Jeweled buckles or with bowa. Boys are somewhat less picturesque in dress than their sisters, but by no means are to be passed by. The wee. wee tots wear Russian suits in white bengallne and are simply fascinating. Their slightly elder brothers, from five to ten years of age. wear Eton suits made of the severe black cloth that is the material for their father's evening suit. Beneath the Jackets are worn shirts and waistcoats of white pique with Eton collars falling over the Jackets, except in the case of the little chaps of five, when soft full blouses are orten preferred. With these suits the stockings are black silH, the ihoea patent leather pumps. Tuxedo suits become imperative at twelve and are worn from that age until formal evening dress is donned. With them the waist coats may be white or black, as preferred. Krem eight to twelve there is a choice allowed between the Eton and Tuxedo, but the best taste defers the wearing of the formal suit as long as may be. Children the boys can be but once. It is neither wise nor fashionable to hurry on big boyhood by discarding the Eton suit too soon. .Smart mothers are allied with wise mothers to keep both the girls and hovs as young as may be.
