II. West minstrels, 8:15 p. m. GRAND Vaudeville, 2:15 and 8:13 p. m. PAKK-'The Little Mother," 2 and 8 p. m. EMPIRE Burlesque, 2 and 8 p. m. Mrs. Le Moyne nt CnKllnli'i. There are few better actresses on the American stage than Mrs. Le Moyne, but there are many better plays than Glen McDonough's latest comedy. "Among Those Present," which was acted by Mrs. Le Moyne and her company at English's yesterday afternoon and last night before ;ood-sized audiences. The star of the new play is a very popular player, and deservedly so, for she has in the past given some very delightful characterizations and has proved herself, time and again, an actress of artistic finish. Mr. McDonough's comedy does not do her justice. It contains many bright and witty lines of a satirical nature clever epigrammatic missiles for which the ultra-fashionable world furnishes the target but in saying that the play receives about all the praise that It deserves. It is not well constructed and its final curtain falls upon an unfinished and unsatisfactory jstory. It was promised that, in the role of Mrs. Clinton, Mrs. Le Moyne would have this season a part that would equal her Mrs. I.orrlmer in "The Moth and the Flame." but the new role does not afford her nearly so great an opportunity hs did the character in Fltch"s drama. The shortcomings of her new piece, however, must be attributed to the playwright and not to the star herself. The story of "Among Those. Present" deals with the doings of the very lashlonable world in general and with Mrs. Clinton In particular. Mrs. Clinton la a social leader whose only uim in life is to entertain and amu?e her friends and acquaintances at any cost. She is the wife of a wealthy retired physician, but possesses means of her own with which to further her ambitions. She is an amiable, but foolish sort of person, and is surrounded by a lot of other foolish people, many of whom are not so amiab!e. Characters such as the idle young swells and the silly young women pictured by Mr. McDonough are doubtless true enough to the life which he has pet out to transfer to the stage, but they are not very interesting. Mrs. Clinton. In her tireless pursuit for social distinction, wastes a great deal of her fortune, and finally, becoming Involved in some queer financial transactions, pulls her much-to-be-plti-r-d husband (who loatlus all of the meaningless pomp and fhow of the "smart set") into the mesa with her. To make matters worse, she accepts the offer of a loan from Howard Pembroke, an unscrupulous stock broker, and gets into further difficulties. There are a series of complications, during which the author gets so far away from his comedy as to Income entangled in melodrama, for at the end of the third act Pembroke is shot although t In view of the audience by a certain

rets

Mrs. Parker, a widow whose confidence he had betrayed while he devoted himself to an adventuress with a title, the Countess Iavendan-Lautree. Mrs. Clinton hides the would-be mudreress In her own home during the excitement following the shooting, but her fears for her friend's safety prove groundless, as Pembroke pretends that the shooting was accidental when he recovers strength enough to speak. When the play comes to an end Mrs. Clinton has a halffinished new mansion on her hands, although she tells her husband she is going to think more about him in the future; Mrs. Parker has bitter memories behind her and a gloomy outlook before her, and while the author tries to make it apparent that Dr. Clinton will enjoy a more congenial environment in the future, one knows better, for a woman like Mrs. Clinton would no more give up her social life than she would give up her hope of a blessed hereafter. Mrs, Le Moyne brought to her impersonation of Mrs. Clinton the buoyant fplit, brightness and charm that she has displayed in all of the parts of a similar kind in which she has been seen. She strove valiantly to make her part and the play attractive, and in a measure she succeeded. Her support was neither excellent,', nor could it be classed as indifferent. Anita Zorn, in the trying role of Mrs. Parker, was good In the scene where she comes to her friend. Mrs. Clinton, and tells of the attempt she has made upon the life of the man who wronged her, and Harold Russell, as Dr. Clinton, gave a satisfactory performance of a part that offered but little opportunity. Algernon Tassin was rather an ordinary sort of stage villain as the unscrupulous stock broker, and George Douglas Parker and Jack Lyne made the most of the insipid characters alloted them. One of the really bright spots in the supporting company was contributed by George Gaston, who, in the small part of Mr. Van Corlears, a weary little husband of a tall, society-crazed wife, did an excellent bit of character acting. Miss Marion Ashworth. as his wife, and Miss Nellette Reed, as the countess, gave acceptable performances of their parts. The play was finely staged, with the exception of the third act, the settings representing the exterior of a Long island country home and the interior of a tent erected on a lawn for the purpose of giving an amateur circus, being exceptionally well designed and painted. Mrs. Le Moyne was greeted warmly by her many admirers in this city, and received curtain calls last night at the end of the third and fourth acts. The engagement was for only the two performances given yesterday.

Theatrical Notes. English's stage will have Its second minstrel show of the theatrical season this evening, when the William II. West Minstrel Jubilee will take possession of the theater. Indianapolis has not had Its customary share of black-face entertainments this year, and the show to-night will probably prove a drawing card, for there are many lovers of this kind of amusement in this city. Although the name of "Billy" West is now only a pleasant memory of the past, the organization which still was his pride during the last years of his life, and which is now owned and controlled by his widow, is said to be kept up to the high standard which West himself always maintained. The company is headed by the wellknown Billy Van, -one of the funniest of end-men and monologuists, and there are a number of other prominent burnt-cork people with tha show, including John King, Frank Hammond, Jules Bennett and Tom Moore. Among the specialty performers are the Zarrow trio of bicycle pantomimists. the Ford brothers, champion dancers, and Swift and Huber, a musical team. Among the leading vocalists are Clement Stewart, Robert Hardy and W. J. Baldwin. xxx Georg" W. Lederer's big musical revel," as the advance notices call it, but which Is more generally known as "Sally in Our Alley," comes to English's for three performances, beginning to-morrow evening, and Is reasonably certain to attract large audiences, since Indianapolis is fond of spectacular musical shows. The company is a very large one, with a dozen or more comedians and singers of recognized ability. Including June McCree, Richard F. Carroll. George Schiller, Frank Farrlngton, Harry Fairlefgh. Jeanette Lowrie, Trixle Friganza, Margaret Marston, Catherine Lewis, Caroline Heustis and Tessie Mooney. When "Sally In Our Alley" left Boston the company was short the services of sixteen chorus girls, as that many "quit their jobs" at the end of the run there, refus ing to play such one-night stands as Maiden, Ithaca, Syracuse and places of similar size, and leaving word with the manager that they would Join the show when it reached Cincinnati. There was no way at hand for filling their 'places, and the company had to get along as best it could without the independent misses until the girls "showed up" at Cincinnati when "Sally" began her week's engagement in that city last week. All of the girls got their jobs back ugnin and are now with the show, but the manager swears by all the gods of the theatrical art that if the merry, merry maidens dare desert him again he will send to Chicago for raw recruits and undertake himself the troublesome business of teaching the new chorus girls the music and "business" of the piece. xxx A new melodrama called "The Little Mother" will be presented at the Fark Theater this afternoon and for the rest of the week. The story of the play deals with the people of the lower East Side tenement district of New York city, and the principal character is Nan Morton, a little newsgirl, who is the only support of her invalid mother and two little brothers. The play is said to be well supplied with special scenery, and tire production is an elaborate one of its kind. The company includes Leighton Leith, Edwin S. Phillips, Harry Mack, Phil McCarthy, Mabel Brownell, Elizabeth Hunt, Ella Davis and others. XXX Thomas J. Ryan, who is renewing at the Grand this week the good impression he made here last year in Will M. Cressy's sketch, "Mag Hegerty's Father," has employed a novel means of securing a comedy act equally as good as his present vehicle for his next season In vaudeville. The present sketch Is considered as good as any that Cressy has ever written, as it creates continuous laughter in the audience for twenty minutes. Ryan has offered Cressy jr.00 for another sketch along the same lines, and has promised the clever farce writer an additional luu.' if the new comedy is pronounced by five competent judges the equal of "Mag Hegerty's Father." The judges are to be S. K. Hodgekin, booking manager of the Keith vaudeville circuit; E. I. Sargent ("Chicot"), of the New York Telegram , Edmund Day, another clever vaudeville sketch writer; Percy Williams, a vaudeville manager, and Fred Hallen, the actor recently seen at the Grand in a sketch. The new piece is to be produced at Keith's New York vaudeville house at the beginning of next season. XXX Indianapolis theatergoers will be glad to learn that James O'Neill, one of the best American actors, has just been booked to appear at English's during the last week in February in "The Manxman," the powerful dramatization of Hall Calne's noved of the same name, in which Wilson Barrett has scored such a success in England. XXX A new farce-comedy of American life will be produced in London within a week or two. It is called "The Adoption of Archibald" and was written by Edgar Selwyn. The leading parts will be played by Miss George Giddons and Miss Fannie Brough. xxx Eddie Foy has made a big hit In Klaw & Erlangcr's brilliant production of the spec tacular pantomime, "Mr. Blue Beard," at the Knickerbocker Theater. New York. The clownish Foy has the part of Sister Ann, who. as everybody knows, is fhe maiden who goes up to the tower to "look for the horseman." ,Hls make-up Is said to be excruciatingly funny. The new production is given on even a more magnificent scale than Its predecessor, "The Sleeping Beauty and the Beast." XXX The sale of seats for the engagement of "The Chaperon." will open at English's this morning. This operatic comedy, which comes to Englifh's next Monday night for one performance, made a good Impression when seen here last reason. MUSIC. The MarDonrll Heeltnl. Edward MacDowcll. who is first among composer-pianists of this country and a man of whom the music world of America may well feel proud, appeared in one of his very interesting recitals yesterday afternoon at the Propylaeum under the auspices of the Matinee Muslcale and made, as usual, a profound Impression upon his audience, which upon this occasion waa large

in numbers and extremely attentive. Mr. MacDowell is a composer first of all and a pianist afterward, and although he is a virtuoso of the foremost rank, his playing is particularly noteworthy because of the fact that he places poetry and emotion before brilliancy of execution. There is a pathos in his interpretation of tender melodies that is not to be acquired by study; it must be felt in the heart of the performer, and it is in these music poems that he stands almost alone among American pianists. His personality is such that he commands respectful attention from the time he takes his seat at his instrument, for he is absolutely free from the affectations characteristic of so many virtuosos now before the public, and he impresses one as a strong, capable, sincere musician. In his programme yesterday afternoon his own compositions predomlnaV?d. and he played them all, with their varying lights and shades and their many contrasts of tone color, in a style that was distinguished by both virility and refinement. Several of these original compositions which he rendered furnished opportunity for a display of his equipment as an executant, and his eccentric "Elfin Dance," his hurrying, scurrying "March Wind" and his "Polonaise." as well as others of his more picturesque creations, were given with all of the life and spirit and technical brilliancy that betokened the master of the pianoforte. But it was in the delicate, exquisitely tender little compositions "A Wild Rose" and "To a Water Lily" that he moved his audience most, for In these his poetic genius seemed to find Its truest expression. The principal number of that portion of the recital devoted to his own works was his "Fourth Sonata. Op. 27." a work that is rich and vital with romantic spirit and so original that it brings home to the listener the fact that Its creator possesses Ideas that are entirely his own, being reminiscent of nothing else in musical composition. Mr. MacDowell played the three movements of this number In a magnetic manner that made his audience thoroughly sympathetic and brought forth four enthusiastic recalls. Between the rendition of some of the programmed numbers he Interpolated two other little masterpieces of his own his "Scotch Poem" and "The Eagle," both of which were given in the most satisfying way. The programme opened with the courante and prelude of Bach, and his Interpretations of these numbers, which cannot be made interesting to the average audience save by the best of artists, were filled with poetic beauty that will be remembered. The "Fantasie in D" of Mozart and the Beethoven "Sonata, Op. 27, No. 2," brought the first period of his recital to a close, both compositions being rendered with feeling and a keen discernment of the mission which they were intended to fulfill. As a whole Mr. MacDowell's recital was a success of the most pronounced character, and the Matinee Musicale Is deserving of the gratitude of the music lovers and music students of the city for bringing this truly great creator and interpreter of music to Indianapolis.

Mrs. Rooserelt's "Way. Philadelphia Ledger. How to endure Immense physical fatigue was told by Mrs. Roosevelt the other day In Washington, following a few days of handshaking at White House receptions. Mrs. Roosevelt said that when she first went to Albany an old friend gave her the following directions: "Compel yourself to be interested in your surroundings, and your bodily exertion will be forgotten. Do not think how long you have been standing or how much your hand pains from too much shaking. Try to think if you have ever met these people before. See how many you can remember; even try to note the gowns, and. If you think them becoming, get yourself interested, and you wm iorget an anoui me ratigue. Newest Shirtwaists. New York Sun. The models for the tailored shirtwaists show nothing astonishingly new. Flatstitched yokes and shoulder straps, giving the fashionable long shoulder line, are on many of the waists. Heavy Unen lace is introduced into more elaborate models. Strappings of plain linen on the rough linen, hand embroidery, etc., give variety, and there are variations rung upon the arrangement of box pleats and side pleats, but there are no startling innovations. The backs of the heavier waists are quite plain, the cuffs are either the regulation shirt cuff or the turnover charvet cuff of last season. ' Of new stocks there is no end, but they deserve a story all their own. When a 3Inn May lie Dull. From Marion Crawford's "Cecilia." Most clever men are dull enough to suppose that they bore women when they suddenly lose their cleverness and say rather foolish things with an air of conviction, instead of very witty things with .a studied look of Indifference. The hundred and fifty generations of men. more or less, that separate us moderns from the days of Eden never found out that those are the very moments at which a woman first feels her power, and that it is much less dangerous to bore her just then than before or afterward. It is a rare delight to her to feel that her mere look can turn careless wit to earnest foolishness. For nothing is more in earnest than real folly, except real love. The Woman's Way. Atchison Globe.

BOARD OF APPEAL FORMED

REPRESENTATIVES OF ALLIED PRINTING TRADE THROUGH WORK. Agreement' Mnst Re Ratified Before the Board Is Constituted Other Business. The representatives of the allied printing trades who have been in conference in the offices of the International Typographical Union for the last three days adjourned yesetrday after signing an agreement. It contains a provision for a board of appeal to consist of six votes, one from the International Brotherhood of Bookbinders, one from the Stereotypers' and Electrotypers' Union, one from the Pressmen and Assistants' Union and three from the International Typographical Union. This board of appeal will not be constituted until after a ratification of the agreement by the trades unions that are a party to It. The Typographical Union will hold its convention in August, and the agreement will then bo ratified. The other organizations will, through conventions and executive boards, legalize it within a. few months, and the board will then be formed. In the meantime such disputes and difficulties as arise between the unions will be disposed of in a manner agreed upon, should the decision be accepted by the parties to the dispute. The board of appeal Is of significance, in that it obviates the necessity of bringing all questions of the printing trade before the American Federation of Labor. Instead, the disagreements will be arbitrated by men who know something of the conditions of the trades. The board will have exclusive control of the union label and will be called to adjudicate many technical points that heretofore have been within the Jurisdiction of the American Federation of Labor.. The independent photo-engravers, who have been attending the conference, will endeavor to organize, and in this organization ultimately the photo-engravers now members of the Typographical Union may be incorporated. Such a move will not be made, however, until after an organization Is secured by the formation of an entirely new trades union, to be made up of such independents as wish to Join and the others that agree to an organization in a national meeting called for the purpose. In the matter of sympathetic strikes, the conference took no action except to provide that where sympathetic strikes are called the organization initiating the strike shall be called on to bear the expense of Its prosecution. Another important agreement made was that hereafter the representation of the various trades in local allied printing councils is to be based on the membership of the organizations represented as evidenced by the last preceding roll call. This will have the effect of giving a more accurate representative vote, as the members of the typographical union in certain localities greatly outnumber the pressmen, stereotype and engravers. KNIGHTS AT ACTON TO-DAY. Programme Arranged for the Twelfth District Meeting.
