"Lost River." 2 and 8 p. m. EMPIRE. -Burlesque. 2 and 8 p. m. Vaudeville nt the Grand. The Grand's vaudeville bill this week Is arranged in better fashion than that of last week, although it cannot truthfully, be said to be a superior programme. But there are not so many acta in the current bill built upon similar lines of entertainment, and the show, as a whole, affords mere diversiiled and more satisfactory amusement. Heading the bill are Y'orke and Adams, the Hebrew Impersonators, who have often been seen in this city before. They are the "headliners" because cf the one reason that their specialty commands the largest salary paid by the management. So far as actual merit is concerned, these two comedians are outclassed by several other acts on the bill. Both of them present, in an amusing way, exaggerated types of New York's East Side Jews, but when they have been seen and heard once they fall to make a strong impression the second time. They seldom hr.ve anything really new to offer when they come to this city, apparently laborIr.g undtr the impression that if a vaudeville act one; fcurts a success it is good for all time. Thiir methods of f unmaking are exactly .the same as when they were last seen in the city. They are clever enough to muke comietc chants in their work, and if they would, but show more t n-terprlsw-tby would be "headliners" in reality as wull as In name. . The 1) It of the LIU was made yesterday afternoon by Clarice Vance, a woman wno really knows how to sing coon songs. She does not rant and tear about the tage: the does not phout in a hoarse "baritone" voice: h? merely renders her negro 'ilittle.s and all of them are well chosen as If she were telling humorous storied set to tjualnt mtlodle. and she get mure out

of them than dors any Fo-called coon singer that has teen heard here in many a day. She is singing this week, for the first time at the Gran, a song that Is likely to prove the successor of "Go Way Hack and Sit Down." It Is called "If You Can't IJo a Bell Cow. Fall in Behind." While the same ong was sung In West's minstrels the oüur night, it wasn't Riven with nearly o much effect. She has a

number of other good son&s, all new ana all sung In a way that Is refreshing. The uudR-nco recognized Miss Vance's ability at the opening performance yesterday and rewarded her with the mo.-t enthusiastic applause that any one singer has received at the Grand so far this season. The specialty of Musical Dale is equally artistic and is deserving of much praise. Mr. Dale is a true musician; he extracts beautiful harmonies from his arch of bells, the compass of which Is two octaves and a half, and he manages to put real expression Into every selection that he plays. His work is especially commendable when one takes into consideration how hard it Is to produce anything like feeling from a bell, lie Is away ahead of all hi3 contemporaries in his peculiar !in of musical work. Much was promised for the four different sketches on the bill this week, but not one of them is of exceptional merit. Maxwell and Dudley, in a sketch called "The Sing ing Lesson, are good so long as they sing their songs and steer clear of their dialogue, as their attempts at comedy are almost unbearable. Walter Terry and Nellie Elmer have a farce, termed "The Dancing Missionary," that starts out as if it were going to prove a welcome novelty, but which winds up very lamely. The dancing of Mr. Terry, however, is gofid. J. C. Nugent and company (In this case the "company" is a woman who is not named on the programme as she deserves to be) present a little farce entitled, "A Peculiar Proposition." It is happily named. The piece Is one of the most peculiar ever seen in vaudeville. It has an outlandish plot and a number of bright lines. The fact that Mr. Nugent and his "company" act it so well saves it from becoming wearisome, however. Foy and Clarke contribute a sketch called "The Spring of Youth" that was seen at the Grand last season. It is an absurdity which affords some amusement during its progress and causes considerable laughter upon its funny conclusion, when a health-seeker drinks of a magic water and is transformed into a monkey. The monkey is excellent. He plays his iart with exceptional intelligence. The Rio trio of acrobats offer one of the strongest features of the show. All three of the performers are tine specimens of physical strength, and their gymnastic work on the "flying rings" is accomplished with skill and grace. The bioscope brings an unusually lengthy programme to its conclusion with a series of interesting moving views. "Lost River" nt the Tnrk. ".Lost River"' makes a splendid attraction for the popular-priced theaters, and the two opening performances of its engagement at the Tark were given yesterday afternoon and last night to large audiences that simply reveled in its mixture of comedy situations, thrilling dramatic climaxes and elaborate scenic effects. The play was too melodramatic for the high-class theaters when It made a tour of those amusement houses two years ago, but it Just about fills the bill in the cheaper theaters, where the audiences care more about constant action than they do for logical stage stories. While "Lost River" Is not nearly so well written as either of Joseph Arthur's suc cessful dramas, it is full of interest, and Is a much better play than the majority of comedy dramas playing the popular-price circuits this season. It is quite a coincidence that "Lost River' should follow "Sis Hopkins" at the park. The present attraction is not unlike the one of last week in that its leading cnaracter Is an Indiana country girl whose ad ventures and misadventures with a number of "city folks" form the plot of the play. The scene of the piece is at West Baden Springs, and the chief figures of interest are several fashionable guests at the famous health resort and a family of rustic neonle living a short distance from the hotel. Mr. Arthur's story does not develop naturally as it did in "The Still Alarm' and "Blue Jeans," but despite this fault in the play s makeup, there Is never a cessation of interesting Incidents, and the audiences yesterday were kept busy ap plauding duYing the greater part of the entertainment. So far as the acting Is concerned, the play is presented in an unusually attractive manner. With the exception of Robert I Sanford, whose role of the villain is overdone to such an extent as to be even apparent to the Park's galleryites (who are accustomed to villains of the deepest dye) the company Is a very capable one. Lottie Briscoe, as Ora, the little country girl, is quite delightful. Her unaffected and natural playing of the character would make a worse play than this one acceptable. Elwood F. Bostwlck makes a manly sort of hero without exaggerating the part in the style so often practiced by actors of heroic characters. The company is quite a large one and so much good work is contributed by those playing the smaller roles that It is difficult to particularize. That the play will continue to please good-sized audiences during the rest of its engagement there Is scarcely any doubt. It remains at the lark to-morrow and Wednesday, with the usual daily matinees. The Park's only minstrel show of the season comes Thursday, when the well-known Hi Henry burnt-cork organization will begin a half-week's engagement. Ilorlenqne nt the Empire. The attention of the management of the Empire Theater has been called repeatedly to the violent conduct of the galleryites when any Oriental song is put on by the chorus in that theater, and yet the police stationed up there seem unable to cope with the ruffians in keeping order. The conduct during the last burlesque yester day afternoon was a disgrace. Despite the fact that the audience is largely composed of men, the management of the theater should see that each person who enters the place behaves In a gentle manly manner. Men and boys could 'do that with less exertion than perpetrating the hideous noises made throughout the entire show. Some of the acts given yester day by the Bon Ton burlesque troupe were above the average and because it was above the heads of certain people they undertook to annoy others. Frank Byron is presenting a new sketch this year entitled "A Dude Detective." Byron Is assisted by IIa Grannan, instead of his wife, who Is ill. The sketch is replete with funny situations. The girl is pretty and acts well notwithstanding the newness of her work. Byron is original In his work and does not fail to win appre ciation from those in the lower part of the house. James and t Iota Simpson retain their musical act. yet it won for them much praise yesterday. Mrs. Simpson has a sweet voice and sings several pleasing se lections, whiie her husband gave selections on a ylophone. They close their act with imitations on snare drums. Grace Leonard is still giving her Johnstone Bennett side walk turn with singing. Harry Iee and Charles Hoey close the olio with Hebrew impersonations. The two burlesques are full of good singing numbers. The rlrst act is patterned after the colored supplements of a certain Sunday paper and is. of course. devoid of humor. The last burlesque con tains a number of good songs. Clarice Vance Called Home. Miss Clarice Vance, who made a good impression at the Grand yesterday as a singer of coon songs, received a telegram yesterday stating that her mother was dy ing, and left for New York last night. Manager Zlegler Immediately secured the services of Alice Lyndon Doll, a child voca list, of this city, who will appear the rest of the week. Theatrical otes. The farce.comedy, "Are You a Mason?" will open its brief engagement this evening at English's. The principal farceurs of the piece are John C. Rice, a comedian of recognized ability, who first won fame with Georce Monroe In "Mv Aunt Brldrret-" Thomas A. Wise, who has been seen here several times before in the kind of roles usually designated "fat. good-natured Ynrts " and Edward Abells. one of thn ht juvenile leading men In this country.

STAND OF THE CORONER

HC MAY REFER KNOOP CHILD'S DEATH TO GRAND JURY. Ills Verdict I Withheld While He Gives 31 ore Study to the TestimonyHistory of the Case. The taking of testimony by Coroner Tutewller regarding the death of the two-weeks-old son of Henry Knoop, a laborer living on Downey street, was concluded yesterday afternoon and from the informa tion the coroner has at present he said it is likely that he will call the attention of the grand Jury to the case. Coroner Tutewller says he was sure the parents of the child were not guilty of any wrong, but that the women who attended Mrs. Knoop in her confinement and also cared for the child during its illness were amenable under the laws of this State for practicing medicine without a license. In the testimony given before the coroner yesterday it was learned that two women, representing themselves as members of the Christian Science faith, to whom the Knoop family subscribes, had been paid $20 for their services in attending Mrs. Knoop and the child. Coroner Tutewller said last night that he had not been able to go over all the testimony, and he will withhold his verdict until late to-day or early to-morrow. He said he was reasonably certain that something criminal had been done in allowing the child to die without proper medical attention. He said he could not blame the father, nor the mother, but the women who professed Christian Science and who tried to save the child by their prayers. lhe grand jury is now In session and the coroner will present his case to it for consideration as soon as he has gone over the testimony submitted to him. A Mrs. Wallace, who testified before the coroner the day after the child died, said she and other members of the Christian Science Church, had prayer at the side of the child's cradle while it lay in the tortures of a spasm. The father also testified on the same day, and while he strongly professed his allegiance to and belief In Christian Science, he said he knew very little about the attention given his wife and child by the members of his church. He did testi fy, however, that he paid two women 520 for treating his wife. The child of the Knoops died one night last week after a spasm. It lay for several hours In great pain and several members of the Christian Science faith knelt beside its bed and prayed for its recovery. The child grew rapidly worse and died in agony. FAVOR SUNDAY BASEBALL. Men Representing Large Interests Hare Courage of ConTlctlons. John J. Appel, president of the Indianapolis Board of Trade; E. K. Chapman, manager of Saks & Co.; Robert Geddes, of the wholesale dry goods firm of Havens & Geddes, and George W. Bliss, retail clothier, yesterday Issued the following open letter favoring Sunday baseball: "May we say to the ministers, and other good ctitzens who are fighting the proposed amendment to the Sunday baseball law, that we think they are making a mistake that will be far-reaching. There are many of us who would deplore the breaking down of our Sunday, but it seems to us that there has been rather too much quoting of that old Mosaic law, 'Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy,' and too little reference to that good, broad Christian truth that the Sabbath was made for man; not man for the Sabbath. "There has been too much langauge Indicating harsh feeling toward those of our citizens Who are asking for more liberal relations between the church and the people. Do not the ministers see that they now have a chance to exercise a little charity of the kind that will be appreciated? There 13 something like ferocity In the way they are attacking the baseball bill. Do they think that the 14.000 voters who have petitioned for this bill have no consideration for Sunday and Christian morality? Do they allow for no difference of opinion that men may hold on questions of the kind that are Involved In this proposed statute? "How can men men of good, red, healthy blood be brought in active sympathy with the church if they who presume to speak for the church antagonize every liberal movement that is proposed? Good citizen ship does not consist in mere forms. A healthy, happy people will be more loyal and upright If they are not made to feel that they are outcasts and lawbreakers sinmply because they would like to take their Sunday afternoon outing as specta tors of a good game or baseball. "Most of us have no automobiles, horses, or cameras with which to amuse our selves on Sunday. Shall we therefore deny ourselves the innocent entertainment which we crave? We ask the ministers to remember that it Is better for them to be part of the people than to be a separate class to themselves, unwilling to partlci pate in the joys as well as the sorrows of mankind. "The Christian Sunday laws are man made, and man can unmake them and make them over and still keep In harmony with Christian teachings. The old Sabbath. when a man dare not do an act of charity If physical labor were Involved, was not our Sunday; it Is no longer in force and never was a statutory establishment In this land. "Let us drive away the fetish and make our Sunday a day for doing good and for being happy.- And that we may be able for these things let us have wholesome amuse ments and outdoor pleasures for a change one day in the week. Our advice to the ministers would be to concentrate their at tacks on the social and more vicious- evils. Give us Sunday enforcement of necessary laws, with an-possible ireedom from un necessary and irritating restraints." Traveling Men and Sunday Ball. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: The statement in Monday's Issue that traveling men of the city indorse Sunday baseball leads to the inference that all traveling men are In favor of it, which is not correct. There are a very large number of traveling men of this city, and. a great many who are members of the Travelers' Protective Association who heartily disapprove of Sunday beseball. Indianapolis, Feb. 9. THE GIDEONS. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: The right of the Journal to advocate Sunday baseball in Indianapolis Is not to be questioned, nor is it believed that you would intentionally be unfair on that or any other question. But your headline man "roots" too vigorously, and should be controlled by the umpire. In to-day's Journal he says that "The Sunday base ball bill is vigorously indorsed by 2.500 traveling men." Then follow some resolutions passed at a meeting of Post B of the T. P. A. of Indiana. The membership of Post B possibly numbers one hundred; of these probably less than one-half were present at that meeting; so that the reso lutions recall the celebrated manifesto is sued bv the "three tailors of Toolev street." beginning "We, the people of England." Of these voting for the resolutions it is safe to say that very few missed a Satur day game last season. It is nonsense for a few members of Tost B to assume to speak for the whole body of traveling salesmen of the city, and your heading of that aiticle is unfair to a large number of men who are your friends. Indianapolis. Feb. 9. F. M. WILEY. MISSIONARY RALLY. Two Sessions Held at the Central Christian Chnrch. A rally of the Christian Missionary Society was held yesterday at the Central Christian Church. Large audiences were present at both the morning and afternoon sessions. Dr. A. McLean, national president of the organization, presided and made brief talks at each gathering.

dressed the session on missionary work in general. "Motives for Missions" was the subject discussed by Prof. C. B. Coleman, of Butler College, who told of the history of the spread of Christianity over the world in an interesting manner. Luncheon was served in the Sundayschool room by the women of the church. and the meeting in the afternoon began at 1:30, when Dr. Jabez Hall, of Irvington, spoke. The Rev. w. w. snirr, or itusnville. told of the lives of missionaries, and related the dramatic ending or a number who had gone to preach the gospel to the heathen. The Rev.

Pyle House and 3Ierldlan-Street Chnrch Sites Suggested. The crowded condition of the present quarters of the T. M. C. A., on North Illinois street, caused a meeting of the direc tors yesterday in the Commercial Club to discuss plans for the erection of a new and larger building. The directors said that if a reasonable sum were realized from the sale of the old property, on Illinois street, a new building might bo erected. A valuation of $100,O00fchas been considered too low. A committee 'of the directors was appointed to make inquiries concerning the purchase of the property at Ohio and Meridian streets, the site of the old Pyle House. In this connection it is stated upon good authority that the Meridian-street Church people contemplate moving a mile or so farther north if a suitable price is offered for their present home. The lot is 67xlö5 feet, and is considered by some as an ideal location for a Y. M. C. A. building. It is said the church people are not soliciting bids, but would entertain one. GERMAN HOUSE STOCKHOLDERS. They Vote Unanimously on a. Plan to Pay Dividends. The stockholders of the German House Association voted last night on the modified amendment to the constitution proposed several weeks ago. The constitution required the payment of 6 per cent. Interest on all paid-up stock after the expiration of the first ten years of the life of the corporation. This was amended as follows: "The board of directors shall declare dividends annually upon all paid-up stock whenever there shall be funds on hand not needed for paying off any indebtedness of the association." At the election .last night S36 shares were voted unanimously for the adoption of the amendment. No other shares were voted. The South Side, Independent and Socieler Turnvereins joined in a gymnastic exhibition at the German House last night, about one hundred active members being on the gymnasium floor.

Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription cures irregularity. It dries the drains which weaken women, heals inflammation and ulceration, and cures female weakness. As a tonic for women who are nervous, sleepless, worn-out and run-down w Favorite Prescription " is unequaled.

" We have tried the skill of twelve different doctors. She took gallons of medicine during the time she was ill, until I wrote to you and you told us what to do. She has taken eight bottles of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and six of the ' Golden Medical Discovery.' She can do her own work now and can walk around again and is quite smart." w Favorite Prescription n has the testimony of thousands of women to its complete cure of womanly diseases.
