Ceatlssesj r fnenenntia Under that witty division of society conduct into "manners and ways-' new and startling developments are constantly appearing.

My motives, however, are frequently a trifle mixed and I have to admit It. The other day. for Instance. I was Introduced, for the fortieth time, at least, to Mrs. Hlghstepper. We have lived In Indianapolis only a few years, nnd everywh. r- I have met Mrs. Hlghstepper; everywhere, also, when I meet Mrs. Hlghstepper again she faces me. on introduction, with a cold, blank uncivil stare glare. I ought to say; rogular New York Insolence, In fact, and receives the presentation as If she had never before I rd my name or seen my face. A dicker of polite Interest permeates her demeanor for the two seconds of our greeting- and she then evidently decides to obliterate me right off. all over again. "You may argue that such rude treatment should be ignored, but the other day, all worn out and irritable with holiday pressure, I let go of my conduct as a perfect lady and gave Mrs. Highst, pper a well-merited lesson. We met again at Mrs. (entlewoman's in the close quarters of a euchre piity. As we sat at the samp table, again we had to be introduced, although I had tried to extend the civility of a greeting to her, but her eyes determinedly looked otherwhere and gave me no opportunity. 'Mrs. Blank, are you acquaint, d with Mrs. High-stepp.-r?' one of the other ladles asked Mrs. Hlghstepper gave me the sume old, familiar, irritating long-distance bow, and I said, very clearly and audibly; " 'Oh. y. s, indeed; I ought to know Mrs. Highst pper; I've had to b- Introduced to h.r about forty times in the last three years. Of course, a little social chill crept o. r our card table for a bit, but I talked blithely between the cards and It soon flitted away. When we changed tables one of tho ladies at our table gave my arm a friendly touch and said heartily: " 'I'm just glad you did that; it would be a boon to Indianapolis society if that woman could be taught how Ill-bred and absurd she is.' "So," concluded the middle-class lady, laughing, "it may perhaps be true that we are sometimes Inspired to be rude in order to teach other people manners." Menu for 11 Day.

Philadelphia Telegraph. It is astonishing how the men love to be fooled by the charms of a self-made woman. It seems as if all a girl has to do to secure several offers of marriage is to be in a railroad wreck, rescue a dog from drowning, or successfully light with a burglar. A man s idea of haviug a good time, as carried out by spending lots of money, going to bed in an irresponsible condition, and waking in the morning with an aching le ad, a sick stomach and a throat like a red-hot shoot-the-ehute, presents no allurements to the average feminine. It's funny how easy it is for a pretty girl to gain her point. Indifference is the best all-around weapon In a woman's armory. Every woman has an unlimited number of personalities. With the pious man, she is generally a reckless devil-may-care sort d a p- rsoii; with the audacious fellow, she Is demure innocence; with the silent man, she is a good talker; with the conceited one, she is a good listener. All things to all men. Is her motto. Why is it that handsome men who are good dancers generally make worthless husbands? Men like dancing because they dance with women. Women like dancing for its own sake. All women suffer with spasmodic attacks of prudence. The unmarried woman who keeps on massaging her face after the age of thirty-five is possessed of an undaunted spirit which feels that while there's life there's hope. So Many Like Her.

The first annual rt of the Juvenile Court In this city has just been issued. One of the interesting features is the comparatively small number of girl offenders. Out of 4.7W children under sixteen years convicted by the magistrates 4.360 were boys, while ouly 430 were girls. Against this showing for the girls is , their tendency, according to the report, to commit suicide at fancied grievances. Six girls w.-re arraigned on this charge.

Mrs. Iyslio Carter began her Indianapolis engagement in "Du Harry" last night at English's, and with a number of her tremendous bursts of emotionalism succeeded in holding the hip assembly spellbound. If this now famous actress had chosen to remain away from Indianapolis during this, her third eaastl in the spectacular Belasco play. Indianapolis would have missed a magnihVent production already familiar to most of the other large cities of the country. Hut it (iinnot truthfully be said that Indianapolis would have missed a rare treat from a standpoint of true art. "Du Barry" has caused a great deal of unnecessary commotion. Ouly recently the play was roundly hissed in a Berlin thea ter when given its first German presentation. On the other hand, its praises havo been sung by some dramatic critics In the most extravagant manner imaginable. As a matter of fact, the play has been taken too seriously. It is a melodrama from beginning to end, and melodramas are not to be taken too seriously. And viewing It as a melodrama. It Is one of the greatest plays ever put on the American stage and deserves the enormous success It has nchieved. The more one sees of Belasco plays the more one becomes convinced that as a master of stagecralt this Jewish dramatist and producer is without a rival iu the world, and If "Du Harry" were not worth seeing for any other reason it would still command gn-at admiration for its splendid stage pictures and wonderful theatrical effects. But the play has other features to commend it-Mrs. Carter, herself, first of all. For, although this unusual actress may not leave a lasting impression upon the mind of the discriminating playgoer, there is no doubt that she attracts and fascinates while she is living the tumultous life of Jeanette Vubernlere. You may feel it in your heart that there Is an undeniable artlticialty atniut much of her performance, yet you are interested in spite of yourself, and when she becomes engulfed In the more stressful passages of the play aud gives free rein to her impassioned emotions, you are named off your feet and are willing to admit that if she It not a great artist, she is at least an extraordinary melodramatic actress. As to the story of David Belasco's great melodrama, it Is rather late In the day to review it in detail, for the history of tho milliner's girl, Jeanette "the doll of the world" was well known to most people before Belasco wrote this play with her as the central figure. Although the dramatist has not allowed himself to be hampered by historical facts, he has. In the main, kept pretty close to the actual life of La Du Bariy. Aside from the unusual extravagance of the stage pictures wulcn accompany the play, little attempt has been made to blind the eye to the sin, deceit, gluttony, wretchedness and shame with which the story is filled. It Is a representation of tne principal events in the life of a celebrated Courtesan a wanton who preferred the luxury offered by the dissolute King Louis XV of France to the honest love of an honest man. And, although Mrs. Carter idealizes somewhat the character of Jeanette Vanberniere, she still shows her to be just what she was-a voluptlonary capable of feeling an overwhelming self-pity when there was nothing of world-attractiveness to divert her attention. it is said that La Du Barry had a great love for Mowers, especially for violets, and, as might have been expected, the dramatist has made the most of this one fender sentiment. The King's favorite is forever lamenting her relinquishment of her last opportunity to be wedded to C'osse, the man she loved, and who promised her a cottage in the quiet country, away from the tumult of Baris, with fragrant Mowers blooming everywhere about the humble doorway. This is the one sympathetic chord that is struck during the play and the audience is expected to b' deeply touched by it. And the audience Is deply touched, too, for the time being, forgetting that in all of this sentimentalizing there is nothing whatever that is suggestive of the beauty of expiation; for Jeanette is only sorry for herself, and if she had her life to live over again she would follow exactly the same course. But when, in the thrilling revolutionary scene of th.- last act, she Is hauled away to the guillotine through the mobridden streets of the bloody French city, clasping a bunch of violets to her heart, there are few dry eyes in the theater for, after all. melodrama can be made very effe live it times. Like the magnilicent settings of the play, Mrs. Carter impresses one not everybody, of course, for all playgoers do not view things in the same way as a wonderful example of theatric effectiveness, and she is deserving of great praise for accomplishing such results. It Is In the quieter portions of the play that her artificial methods make themselves so obvious. Her carefully modulated voice, her graceful attitudes, her every movement in these scenes are evidences of deliberation and consciousness. In the early part of the bedroom scene this artirtciallty is almost painful, and In her playful seene with Cosas In the nrst net she is anything hut convincing. Hut when she is plunged into a whirlpool of emotion, then she Is sincere; tin n her self-consciousness is thrust aside and she drives hotnt her effects with real power, Öhu permit passion to carry

her where It will and without imposing any restraint. She has been accused by some critics of ranting, but was ever ranter so terribly iu earnest? She is r:i!ly at her b. st in these cyclonic scenes, and the average auditor will find himself applauding her most enthusiastically, and the demonstration of approval Is not unmerited. Much credit Is due the actress for the immense lalor performed and the wonderful perseverance evidence.!. Although her "lu Barry" may not be great in a creative sense, it Is a thoroughly Interesting performance, and the two emotional seem s with the wounded lover, Cosse, and with King Iwnils at the fete, represent the best achievement yet of her peculiar talent. Thesupporting company Is of very high and even excellence. Charles A. Stevenson, always an actor of the first rank, gives a finished portraiture of King Louis XV. He looks the character and acts it well-nigh perfectly. Another good piece of work is done by Campliell Oollan as Je in Du Barry, a rascal who is ever ready to prollt by another's downfall, and Charles A. Millward is seen to advantage as Cosse, although nut entirely convincing in his lovemaking. Herbert Mllward, as the Due do Brlssac; that ver. tan actor, C. P. Flockton, irs the Lord Chancellor; H. K. Roberts, aa the Due de Richelieu, and Beresford Webb as the Papal Nuncio, give very Intelligent renditions of their respective roles, and Claude (fillingwat.r is admirable in the. small part of PeilJnJ the porter at the millinery shop, win is faithful to Jeannette t.i the last. While there are many feminine parts in the play, not one of them, aside from the leading role, is of great importance, and it is unnecessary to comment upon them, save to mention that each is very capably acted. In fact, all of the multitudinous accessories, animate and inanimate, are quite noteworthy. The production is one that cannot soon be forgotten. David Belasco has made every stage setting and th. ro are seven complete settings during the TS acts of the drama a splendid master piece of stagecraft. The setting for the Mnal scene of the last act is particularly ingenious, showing, as it floes, the intersection of three streets in Paris, bordered by the picturesque three and four story houses of the time of Louis XVI, their open windows crowded with men, women and children, whose faces are marked with morbid curiosity as the tumbril, bearing the poor, frivolous, luxuryloving Jeannette Vaubernlere, passes by in the dawn of the wintry morning carrying the now despised Du Barry once the plaything of royalty on her last earthly journey. Melodrama, at the l'ark. The Park was packed from the first row in the orchestra to the last row in the gallery at yesterday's performances, when the melodrama, "Jhe Man Who Dared," began its second engagement of this season and its fifth engagement, in all, at that house. The play itself Is a great favorite with the Park's clientele and added to this fact the appearance of Blanche Cartwrlght, an Indianapolis girl, with the company, served to draw very large audiences. Miss Cartwrlght is playing an ingenue role and she gives a performance that Is praiseworthy. She did not stem in the least nervous In the presence of so many friends and well-wishers yesterday, but went right ahead with her part in the play as If she were a veteran instead of a newcomer to the stage. She acts as gracefully and naturally as a sensational melodrama will permit, and does quite as well as any other member of the cast. "The Man Who Dared" has been seen at the Park so often that to comment at length on the play would be to tell a stale story. It Is probably one of the most preposterous plays ever seen on any stage in any part of the world at any time, but In the hands of Howard Hall and an unusually good company It becomes a "thriller" that attracts big crowds ' every where on the popular-price circuits. It Is essentially a box office play, written and staged with the express purpose of appealing to that class of playgoers who care absolutely nothing for consistency on the stage, to say nothing of plausibility. Mr. Hall still plays the character of the French soldier, statuesque and stagey, Kthel Kuller continue to portray the adventuress, handsomely costumed but extremely vulgar, and the other parts are enacted by the same players last seen here, with the exception of th rde of the villain, which is now interpreted by Arthur K. Claire, who is not so good an actor as was his predecessor. The piece will continue at tne l'ark throughout the week, and It is needless to say that it will enjoy a land-office business. Howard Hall says that this is the last time "The Man Who Dared" will ever be seen here. He is tired of it. So are some others. Theatrical Note. Weber & Fields have just announced that they will take their all-star burlesque company on a tour of the principal cities, beginning Feb. 1, Instead of waiting until May as has been their custom in previous years. It Is thought that the pour condition of the theatrical business in New York is responsible for this change in their plaus. While In the past their spriug tours nave been "Hying trips." with only two or three nights, or a week at most, in the large Western cities, their new tour will embrace all of the larger towns and their bookings will Im- for engagements of two or three w"cks in the largest cities, such as Chicago. St. Louis and San Francisco for they an- going all the way to the Pa cine coast. Th.y wil! very likely play In IudianaMdls at the Park for two or three nights instead of but fr one night, hs In the past. It is believed that Fay Templetou will be with them ou the tour, uud
OIMPLEX
1 The it is settled that Charles Ross and Mabel Fenton will join the company once again. "The Great Iafayette" and his vaudeville company will furnish next week's entertaltiment at the Grand. The show will not be a vaudeville performance of the usual sort, but an entertainment made up of extravaganza, comedy, travesty. Illusions, danclug, music and magic. The feature of the bill this season is what Lafayette calls a mystic play. Its title is "Khrislna. the Divine," and it is really a spectacular act made up of many surprises. Lafayette assumes the role of a wonderful HUsglcJaa and keeps his audiences guessing what he will do next. Among other things he burns a live child as a sacrifice or appears to do so, rather and then restores it to life. The company is one of the largest vaudeville combinations on the road and the show is said to be an unusually Interesting one. The current programme at the Grand is drawing well-pleased audiences. xxx It is understood that, by a deal completed yesterday, the now spectacular play. "A Japanese Nightingale." which comes to English's next week, has become the sole property of Daniel Frohman. its former owners, Klaw & Erlanger, selling him the American rights of the piece and the present production. Miss Margaret Illington, who in private life is Mrs. Daniel Frohman. will lvreaffer be billed as a real star in the play instead of being "featured" in the title role. Orrin Johnson, the handsome young Indiana actor who is playing the principal male role, will be a co-star In the production. Manager Frohman has great faith In the drawing powers of the play and will take it on tour through the West to San Francisco.

A large stainedglass window is shown by Miss Mary L Tlllinghast at her studio, 3 North Washington 'square, prior to its removal to Terre Haute, Ind. It Is one of a pair of windows for the Centenary Episcopal Church In that city, one of which Is an order from the congregation, and the other from Miss Minshall as a memorial to her mother. Miss Tlllinghast Is well known as a decorator and especially as a designer of stained glass windows, having examples of her work hero in Grace Church and in many ecclesiastical buildings in other cities. The new windows are notable for the large amount of blue glass used In their figures and background. Each Is a composition extending over three openings in a Gothic setting, with broad Bullions in the window head. That in memory of Mrs. Mlnshall, which is now in the north window of the studio, is representative of charity. The other triple window, not shown for want of space In the studio, has in the central compartment a full-length Christ, and in the side openings the figures of Saints Peter and Paul. These windows represent the largest and finest work In stained glass Miss Tlllinghast has produced. They form part of an Interior at Terre Haute for which she has already made several windows and Indeed superintended the entire general scheme of decoration. HOME DRESSMAKING HINTS. By MAY MANTON.
