EMPIRE. Burlesque, 2 and 8 p. m. UNIQUE. Vaudeville, 3 and 3 p.m. 'The 3Ian from Sllsaonrl." A play highly Improbable in plot, somewhat lacking in dramatic interest excepting In one act, and utterly unconvincing, though with ä few compensating touches of humor. Is "The Man from Missouri," written by George V. Hobart and Edward V. Rose, and acted by the popular comedian, Tim Murphy, and his associate players. The new comedy was given at English's last night before an audience of moderate size that seemed willing to allow the worthy efforts of the star and several of his company to make up for the shortcomings of the play. The story of the piece has to deal with one Broncho Jim, a Nevada ranchman, born in Missouri, who goes to Washington to visit, his best friend, John Barton, who has been elected to Congress principally through Jim's successful efforts to "get the voters in line." When he first arrives at the capital the man from Missouri, through a mistake on the part of the cabman. Is taken to the residence of the postmaster general, where he meets Helen Lentwortn, a beautiful young woman, with whom he straightway falls In love. It . turns out that John Barton Is in reality the son of the postmaster general. Barton and his father had quarreled many years previous to the opening of the play, and the young man had drifted Into the Western country, where he had changed his name, for some reason or other. Jim finds his friend Barton In an uneasy frame of mind, for Barton has learned that his father's honor Is In great danger owing to the folly of the old man's young wife (Barton's stepmother), who has fallen a victim to the wiles of a scheming Mexican politician. When Jim discovers that this Mexican villain is none other than a desperado whom he has known out We3t he is tempted to bring his trusty brace of pistols into play, but, rejecting this plan as impracticable, he proceeds to outwit the rascal at the latter's own game, and is Instrumental in bringing about a happy reunion of father and son and husband and wife, while Incidentally winning the hand of the young woman, Helen Lentworth. "The Man from Missouri" Is an actor-made play, cut out by dramatic tailors to fit an actor who has a characteristic style. That It will amuse some people Is quite likely, because of the fact that Mr. Murphy is an actor of ability with a manner of his own that Is quiet, unobtrusive and distinctly dry. while his humor is well worth while. Hi3 portrayal of Broncho Jim last night was in itself a good characterization and served to lend Interest to a play that might otherwise have become deadly dull. He succeeded in rousing the audience to enthusiastic applause at the ending of the second act the one really clever scene In the play and was called before the curtain to express his thanks. Dorothy Sherrod In the lauding feminine role of Helen Lentworth, was charming in appearance and played her part with spirit and Intelligence. Elliott Dexter as the Mexican schemer, Senor De Castro, enacted a conventional melodramatic villain in conventional melodraraltic style. John P. Wade was equal to the role of John Barton and Wlibur M. Roe was good as the postmaster general. Florence Davis gave an acceptable rendition of the part cf the foolish young wife and the other feminine parts were adequately filled by Aubrey Powell. Louise Whitfleld. Gertrude Dalton and Doris Dalton. John Gorman appeared- as a young Washington banker and did all that he had to do satisfactorily, but W. L. Gibson gave a poor interpretation of the part of a young German officer and Bernhardt Niemeyer did not seem to be on familiar terms with his role of an ofilcer from the English embassy. The play was very handsomely staged, several of the settings being of unusual excellence. An amusing feature of the performance not down on the programme occurred In the tirst act. Mr. Murphy and Mr. Wade were engaged In one of their dialogues when a terrific knocking came from behind the scenes. The noise was continued tor a minute or two and Murphy stopped the other actor, who was In the midst of a speech. "Wait. John." said the comedian, in a gentle voice," wait until the lightning express has backed into the theater it's coming now." This unexpected interpolation so upset Mr. Wade that it was with difficulty that he took up his lines where he had left off. When the curtain fell on the act a comical scene took place on the tage. "What in hea ven's name was the meaning of that racket?" cried Murphy, not a littio exasperated. And when told that the noise was caused by an Indianapolis expressman who was merely announcing the presence of himself and his wagon outside the comedian threw up his hands. The expressman had come to th stage door of the theater to transport the big photograph franus, used in advertising the play, down to the Union Station for shipment to the next city where the company is to play. Joseph Jefreraon To-Mght. One of the largest audiences of the seaion will, in all probability, greet the distinguished veteran comedian, Joseph Jefferson, at English's this evening, ua the sale of eats has been very heavy. From all accounts the supporting company is an unusually fine one, and the performance of the old play promises to be very enjoyable. Joseph Jefferson was born in Philadelphia Ftb. 20. HZ). He was the fourth Jefferson In direct line from the one that made the r.amo famous in the palmy days of the Drury Lane Theater, London. Joseph Jefferson appeared first on the stage at the age of three years In Washington. He went barnstorming until the Mexican war.
when he Berved in General Taylor's army. Then he played with the elder Booth. McCready, the Wallacks, Murdock and Edwin Forest, and made his first trip to England and France In In 17 he was principal comedian at Laura Ketnu's theater in New York. He created at that time the character of Asa Trenchard in "Our American Cousin." Going to Dion Boucicault's Winter Garden, in New York, he played Calejj Plummer in "The- Cricket on the Hearth and Salem Scudder in "The Octoroon." IH he Ilrat became much interested in the character of Rip Van Winkle, writing a play around it that was produced in the fall of that year. On his return from a trip to Australia he met Dion Bouclcault, and that famous playwright and adapter worked over Mr. Jefferson's play into its present form. The new version was first presented in London, and scored a great hit from the first. One night. In the year 1743, a young man sat Jn the taproom of a London inn. He was a country lad from Yorkshire, but his manners were engaging, his wit quick, and his voice was melodious. He charmed all who sat drinking with him, and won their hearty applause for his songs and Jests. In another part of the inn, where the company was more select, David Garrick, then the idol of the London stage, was entertaining some friends. A servant mentioned to the party the presence of the country roysterer who was singing and Joking in the taproom. "Bring him in," cried Mr. Garrick's friends, and, not a bit abashed by the invitation, in the young man came. He pleased the company of celebrities in the parlor as thoroughly with his sharp, homely wit as he had the less particular ring outside. The great Mr. Garrick himself was captivated. He urged the lad to remain in London, and offered him a place in his theatrical company. The offer was accepted. From that Incident dates the foundation of the Jefferson family as a dynasty of players. The country boy's name was Thomas Jefferson. Though his name would hardly be generally remembered to-day for the sake of his own achievements as an actor, it is cherished by all delvers Into the lore of the theater because Joseph Jef
ferson Is the great-grandson of the man to whom David Garrick took a fancy on sight. Theatrical Notes. The appearance of Blanche Walsh In Tolstoi's "Resurrection" to-morrow night at English's will not only be the most important theatrical event of this week, but one of the chief theatrical performances of the season. No play produced during the last ten years has provoked so much universal comment. It was the dramatic sensation of New York for four months, and is at the present time being played on the stage of nearly every important European capital. Blanche Walsh, in her portrayal of Maslova, has been conceded by many of the foremost critics of this country to have displayed a dramatic genius akin to that of the great Italian artist Duse in her greatest moments. Always regarded as a capable actress, Miss Walsh never acquired any real dramatic fame until her appearance last winter in "Resurrection." She needed only the opportunity, and when that opportunity came she won a lasting reputation in a single night. Few modern books have been more widely read than Count Leo Tolstoi's novel upon which the play is founded. Henri Bataille's dramatization of the book Is credited with being the work of a master hand. Everything which lacks a dramatic value he has eliminated. But for the commercial value of the title, it might better be called "Maslova," as its story almost wholly concerns the young woman's downfall, her consequent degradation and the final resurrection of her soul. The plot is simplicity Itself and would be conventional in the extreme but for the fact that in thl3 case, Instead of making the woman's penitence the dominating theme,- the guilt Is placed where in Justice it belongs. xxx The Grand seems to be In for a big week's business, as the programme is the best offered at that theater in several weeks. Clarice Vance, the singer of negro songs; Carmontella, the graceful little contortionist, in her "Witch of the Moon;' James J. Morton, the humorous monologist; Carl Sanderson, the comedy pianist, and others on the bill have scored substantial hits, and the snow, as a whole, is giving great satisfaction. A large theater party from the Imperial Hotel, where Carmontella (Mrs. Louis W. Buckley) has been living, attended the performance last night to applaud the dainty performer, and another large theater party will be given in her honor to-morrow evening by the members of the Indianapolis Dramatic Club who appeared in the recent amateur vaudeville show at the Propylaeum. Mrs. Buckley assisted the amateurs in preparing for the entertainment, and they Intend to give her a hearty reception upon her appearance to-morrow evening. Another large party will also be in attendance to-morrow night, made up of the members of the Millinery Jobbers' Association, which opens its annual meeting In this city to-day. xxx "Driven from Home," the rural melodrama now running at the Park, is proving a good drawing card, and Patrice, who acts the leading part, is winning the warmest kind of applause at every performance by her unusually sincere acting. She Is one of the hardest working little actresses ever seen at the Park, as she seems to throw her whole heart Into her role. Whatever her 'faults may be, Patrice is very much in earnest, and she makes more out of the play than most actresses on the popular price circuits could possibly do. "Driven from Home" closes its engagement with two performances to-day. Opening with the matinee to-morrow afternoon, "The Man Who Dared," a favorite "thriller," will begin a half-week's engagement, with Howard Hall and Ethel Fuller in the principal parts. XXX The troupe of Japanese acrobats and gymnasts at the Empire this week with Harry Bryant's buriesquers is giving one of the most startling acts of its kind ever seen in this city. The little Japs arc most daring performers, and some of their feats have never been equaled here. The vaudeville olio of the show Is strong. Matt Kennedy, the Irish comedian, scores a hit with his original funmaklng methods, which come nearer being real burlesque than Empire patrons are accustomed to seeing. XXX Word has Just been received from Liebler & Co. that their talented young star, Eleanor Robson, last seen In Indianapolis as Juliet In the all-star Shakspearean revival last spring, has been booked to give one performance at English's a week from next Monday night, appearing here ia Israel Zangwill's new play, "Merely Mary Ann." Miss Robson has many ardent admirers in this city. Her mother, Madge Carr Cook, was recently seen here in tho title role of "Mrs. Wlggs of the Cabbage Patch." XXX Frank Barry Is in the city in advance of the Behman road show, which comes to the Grand next week. Y'oung Mr. Barry belongs to the famous theatrical family, of which the late Billy Barry was the head. Billy Barry was a great favorite in Indianapolis in the days when he starred with Hugh Fay in several clever Irish comedies. Lydia Barry, a sister of Frank's. i3 with the Behman show. She is a clever comedienne. Small Safe Illouu Open. Burglars blew open a small safe In the office of A. Borenstein, 209 South East street, early yesterday morning and secured about $1 In money and $S in postag-e stamps. The work was evidently done by inexperienced thieves, as so much nitroglycerin was used that the door of the safe was blown from its hinges through an outer door and a number of windows in the building were broken by the concussion. Y'esterday etht or ten men who were regarded as suspicious characters were arrested and locked up at the police station and it U believed that several of them know more about the recent burglaries in this city than they care to tell. Thanks for the Firemen. "I wish to express my appreciation and extend my thanks to the members of the f.re department for their promptness and efficiency In dealing with the fire which threatened to destroy the Central Universalist Church." said the Rev. Marion Crosley, pastor of the church, yesterday. "I have had much to do with fires, and am ready to acknowledge that I never witnessed greater promptness and more thorough ethcitncy than the way in which the department got this fire under control. The firemen are deserving of this recognition." Infanta Thrive. on cow's milk that la not subject to any change of composition.

Clusters of wisteria almost more natural than the real blossoms, may be found in the downtown shops. The prices range from $2.75 up higher, and the graceful sprays are pretty for handsome vases or for little brackets. XXX The modish fringe has Invaded the realm of furs, and manufacturers now paint the lily by adding fringe to handsome muffs and boas. One set of the popular gray squirrel show rows of gray silk cord pendant from tho ends of the boa and the edge of the flat muff. XXX One of the quaint little garments shown among the collection of East Indian embroideries is one that perhaps belonged to an Infant rajah. It is of black silk, with posies and peacocks scattered all over it. The color combinations are indescribably rich, and the needlework is exquisite. xxx Vertical stripes are among the smart patterns of the newest hosiery, and scarlet plays a predominant part in the most modish color schemes. Vertical stripes of white edged by narrow stripes of scarlet about half an inch apart on a ground of black is the pattern and color of a smart pair of stockings Just from New York. xxx Pieces of the beautifully embroidered fabrics that spme time or other have formed the garments of East Indian personages, or strips of bright rich embroidery, are taken to form the modern sofa cushion cover, the table scarf cr mat. Many of the pillow covers are backed by linen embroidered in quaint designs, and the embroidery on the silk or satin, which forms the upper portion of the cover. Includes anything from an elephant to a tiny flower. The prices range from $2 or $3 upward. xxx It isn't every day in commonplace America that one can pick up pieces of real East Indian embroidery, bo the collection of such things shown by one of the Washington street shops is of especial interest. Among the pieces are several tiny garment:?, which are not unlike the familiar kimona and would form the quaintest of dressing or combing sacques if one could make up one's mind to take them for such every .lay use. The prices are remarkably low considering the beauty of and genuine worth of the embroideries. The Traveling Picture. It is also a serious fact that one-half the world does not know what the other half does with gifts and souvenirs. "When I am rash enough to get into friendship trouble I owe it to myself to pass that trouble speedily on to some one else," said a young woman, with the explanation, of course, that he or she is at liberty to do the same thing. "The other day, in Margaret's flat, I gave a casual glance at a little painting, a marine bit, on a toy easel, and said, recklessly: 'What a pretty little picture!' " 'Do you like it?' asked Margaret, eagerly. It is yours; take it. I want to give it to you.' "Looking at it again, I saw that the picture was not at all what, at first glance, it had seemed to be. It was a melodramatic little palnted-ln-three-mlnutes-in-a-depart-ment-store-window sea. view a storm going on, surf rolling in (it was. the surf only which had caught my eye), peasants kneeling at a cross on the beach, and angels peering through an opening in the clouds over the storm-tossed boat battling in the waves. Really a dreadfully dismal little picture to 'have round,' as we say. Before I could say Jack Sprat Margaret had the picture wrapped up, and gave it to me. When it was safely in my hands she drew a long breath and said: 'I'm so glad you like that picture. I don't, and I want to get rid of it "That was pleasant candor on Margaret's part, of course, and I had to leave her believing that I admired a horrid little picture which she scorned. But I at once decided that two, or more, could play at the game of getting rid of it, and on the way home, as I met Clara and Katharine, I made them draw straws for it, and Clara won It. I then told them, under a vow of silence, the history of the package. Katharine wanted to look at it. but Clara wouldn't allow it unless Katharine would promise to take it. So they passed on with the dreadful little picture, Clara vowing she would not go home until she had worked it off,' as she said, on some one else. She wranted to find some man who could be drawn Into the game. He, in turn, could help pass it along. "Yes, there are various chances that it might Journey around to Margaret after while, but I shan't worry about that. If she gets the picture again she will know what I think of her for getting rid of it on me." Menu for n Dny. Suggestions furnished by Table Talk to housekeepers of moderate means: Breakfast.

"It would take a very clever woman, and a very knowing one, to distinguish between the hat and the toquo of to-day, and well, we must be honest the forerunner of the bonnet, for we are coming back to it, and many headgears which the smartest women are wearing now recall the Marie Stuart and other shapes of long ago," says The Queen. "We do not bring back old friends Just ns they were; we do not expect when we lose sight of an acquaintance of ten years or more to find her looking Just the same as she was a decade ago. for the chances are she will have gone with the times, and yet you say and you think, 'Why, you have not altered a day;' but if she really presented herfcelf exactly as you had parted with her, you would havo classed her as antedilu
vian. It Is much the same with clothes. The old fashions come back to us with the modern veneer. nd the large brim provented by n bandeau from falling fiat on the face like an old-fashioned hat is so waved that It gives the effect of a point, and is very closely allied to the bonnet that was worn in 1SS3, twenty years ago. We see the resemblance specially when, as is mostly the case in this fashionable style, strings come from the back and arc tied under the chin."
The Man nt the Wedding. Philadelphia Record. "The spectacle of a day wedding that Is not ultra-fashionable is a wonderful sight to behold," said the tailor who caters to what is known as the smart set. "Fashion decrees that at such a function every male guest shall wear a frock coat with striped trousers, an ascot tie, and, of course, a high silk hat; for a frock coat demands that. Now, the average man doesn't possess a frock coat, or if he has one it is generally so old as to be entirely out of style. A man invited to a day wedding naturally hates to give up $.7) or $J0 for a new coat when he realizes that it may be worn by him to advantage perhaps two or three times a year. Remember, I am speaking of a large class of men who detest social affairs and most men do. The result Is that when Smith gets an invitation to a day wedding he goes to his friend Jones and says: -Jones, you have an old frock coat, haven't you?' 'Yes,' says Jones, 'but it's about ten years old.' Oh, well, that'll do,' says Smith. So he borrows Jones's coat and wears it; and he isn't such a sight as you might think, because half the other men have done the same thing, and the misfits are so common that they are not commented on. The frock coat proposition is a hard one for the tailors." A Daring Woman. Atchison Globe. We are always greatly Interested In the newspaper reports of addresses made by women at women's clubs. We never hear them any other way, lacking the courage to butt In. Mrs. E. T. Arnold, president of a Chicago federation of women's clubs, said yesterday in an address that "there need not be a particle of love; that some of the unhappiest couples in the world were those who loved each other dearly." Mrs. Arnold recommended more self-control and less love, and advised women to cut out calling their husbands "dear," and to say "please" oftener. It is a wonder that she was not mobbed. We will watch Mrs. Arnold's career closely.

Interesting: Features In the Journal Colored Supplement Next Sunday, PITTENCRIEFF ILLUSTRATED IN COLORS. The first page of the supplement for next Sunday will be given up to the great park presented by Andrew Carnegie to his native town of Dunfernline. This magnificent gift by the ScottishAmerican ironmaster has been the subject of much comment for weeks, but adequate pictures showing the beauty of the park until now have not been placed before tho American public. It is not too much to say of our pictorial presentation of this park, from photographs obtained expressly for this publication, that It Is quite as artistic as the color printing in the best high-class magazines. There is an article accompanying them, of course. EARLY DAYS IN THE MIDDLE SOUTHWEST. Page three carries the first article by Mrs. Martha McCulloch-Williams on the early days of the Republic In the middle Southwest, or, more specifically, Tennessee. This article, and some that are to follow, we believe, will be. found of extreme interest. Its title is "Getting to Market in Pioneer Days." In thes. times of quick railroad transportation tfce primitive methods employed in the early part of the present century, forgotten even by Tennesseeans for fifty years at least, and rarely heard of at all by the rest of us, seems strange Indeed. The two-color illustrations by J. K. Knickerbocker are something entirely new in newspaper printing. FASHIONS IN FOUR COLORS. "Hats, Gowns and Wraps for Theater Wear" is the caption of the fashion page with article by Adelaide Samson. There are four photographs, one containing three figures and three showing heads. The titles are: "White Gown with Blu Silk Underskirt." "Honey Tinted Vervet Gown with Appliques of Lace," "Manteau and Gown In Geranium Crimson," "Ermine Evening Hat with Crimson Ostrich Plume," "Brussels Net Drapery with Maribout Border," 'Dress Hat of Blue Velvet PipingsRomanesque Shane." FOR THE CHILDREN. Tage two has one of Miss Truman's twocolor half page pictures for the youngsters. It is entitled "When the Woods Are Full of Indians." It shows a lot of children playing that they are "redskins." a gHme which will always be popular with American boys. It is accompanied by a clever piece of verse. There is besides on the page a "Natural History Puzzle Picture" and articles as follows: "How Creole Children Play." "The Only Way to Hag a Grizzly." "A Precious Boy Prince." "The Bank of England's Museum." "A Military Golgotha." Throughout the supplement there are many short articles of interest, besides the features mentioned above. The usual four pages of comics In colors will also be Included.
Rheumatic Cure Costs Nothing if It Fails Any honest person who suffers from Rheumatism Is welcome to this offr. For years I searched everywhere to find a specific for Rheumatism. For nearly twenty years I worked to this end. At last, la Germany, my search was rewarded. I found a costly chemical that did not disappoint nv as other Rheumatic prescriptions had disappointed physicians everywhere. I do not mean that Dr. Shoop's Rheumatic Cure can turn bony Joints into flesh again. That is Impossible. But it will drive from the blood the poison that causes pain and swelling, and then that is the end of Rheumatism. I know this so well that I will furnish for a full month my Rheumatic Cure on trial. I cannot cure all cases within a month. It would be unreasonable to expect that. But most cases will yield within thirty days. This trial treatment will convince you that Dr. Shoop's Rheumatic Cure is a power against Rheumatism a potent force against disease that is irresistible. My offer is made to convince you of my faith. My faith is but the outcome of experienceof actual knowledge. I know what it can do. And I know this so well that I will furnish my remedy on trial. Simply write me a postal for my book on Rheumatism. I will then arrange with a druggist in your vicinity so that you can secure six bottles of Dr. Shoop's Rheumatic Cure to make the test.. You may take it a full month on trial. If it succeeds the cost to you is $5.50. If it fails the loss is mine and mine alone. It will be left entirely to you. I mean that exactly. If you say the trial is not satisfactory I don't expect a penny from you. I have no samples. Any mere sample that can affect chronic Rheumatism must be drugged to the verge of danger. I use no such drugs for it is dangerous to take them. You must get the disease out of the blod. My remedy does that even in the most dKficult. obstinate cases. It has cured the oldest cases that I. ever met, and In all of my experience, in all of my 2,000 tests, I never found another remedy that would cure one chronic case in ten. Write me and I will send you the book. Try my remedy for a month, for it can't harm you anyway. If it fails the loss is mine. Address Dr. Shoop, Box 790, Racine, Wis. Mild cases not chronic are often cured by one or two bottles. At all druggists.
