Julia Marlowe, after a two months' rest, which included a trip to Italy, is at work again, and is once more appearing in her old success, Charles Major's "When Knighthood Was in Flower." She began her new season in New Haven the night before last and played to an audience of iM half of whom were i'ale men. who cheered her to the echo after each act. Her reception was the most enthusiastic she has ever received in all h r stage careerwhich, is saying a good deal. Tlie new production of the old play is said to b a very handsome one, and with such supporting players as Tyrone Power. Fred Tyier. George Flood, Agnes Palmer and N- lla Webb, the romantic piece is presented in excellent style. After its New England tour the company will come West and will be seen in Indianapolis for an engagement ere long. This city has seen one Mary Tudor this season in the person of Roselle Knott, who, although a capable actress, failed to play the part as well as Julia Marlowe plays it. -f Clifford Storch, an Indianian, who plays the part of Colonel Fulton Thorpe in David Belasco's "The Heart of Maryland," which opens at the Park this afternoon, has appeared In a number of plays in Indianapolis, Lafayette, Terre Haute, Columbus and other Indiana cities. In his present role his talent is said to be well developed. Eulalia Bennett plays the part of the heroine. Maryland Calvert. The plot reveals the rancor and sentiment of war, the Jove story being particularly pleasing. One of the chief scenes is that of an old belfry, into which the heroine climbs to swing from the clapper of the boll and prevent it from sounding the death knell of her lover, the author of the play having taken the incident from the famous old poem, "Curfew Shall Not Ring To-night." The play has been seen In Indianapolis a number of times with unfagging interest. It is one of the few American war dramas which had a successful career in England. It will be the Park's bill the rest of the week. During Sir Henry Irving-'s brief engagement In Indianapolis at English's next week, the distinguished English actor will be seen in two of the most popular plays in his repertoire. For his opening performance. Monday evening, he has chosen to revive "Louis XI." The play Is an adaptation of Dion Boucleault, from the French of Casimir Delavigne. In its original form it was always an effective melodrama, but Sir Henry has elevated it to 1 meat tragedy of the first order by the sheer force of his acting in the title role. His portrayal of the crafty anl cruel monarch has long been considered one of his best impersonations. The bill at the special Tuesday matinee will be "The Merchant of Venice, which is promised the same magnificent production that it received at the Lyceum Theater in London. The seat sale for the Irving performances will open this morning. The sale of seats for the Weber and Fields engagement indicates that as many people from out in the State as from Indianapolis will go to the Park on the night of March 10. Theater parties of generous size will be given by people from Lebanon, Greencastle, Noblesville, Columbus, Shelbyville and points in the gas belt. The sale of seats yesterday also indicated that all would be taken for the one performance, although there is a good supply still in the box ofHe'e. It Is the most important company coming to the Park until May, when Blanche Bates will be there for three nights in David Belasco's production, "The Darling of the Gods." Neither of the companies appear in houses belonging to the theatrical syndicate, David Belaseo especialy being a strong opponent of this combination. Everybody who attended a performance of "The Yankee Consul" during Its engagement in this city recently will remember the topical song, "In Days of Old," sung by Raymond Hitchcock. The other night in New York the encore friends were out in fuM force and after the comedian had responded to half a dozen calls the handclapping continued. Then Hitchcock again came forward and began a new verse at) tut "actors in New York" a new verse written that very day and one which he had not at that time succeeded in committing to memory. He got as far as the second line. paused, stuttered and then, struck with a happy thought, wound it up by singing, with no attention to the rhyme of the thing "The actors med to know their words In days of old." The latest bit of theatrical news to interest New York is the report that Weber &
MR. WALTER G ILM AN PAGE EXHIBITS SIX PORTRAITS
His Pictures Attract Considerable Interest at the Lieber Art Gallery Portraits of Mrs. Holtzman and Judge Anderson.
Six portraits of varying subjects and styles coir.price an exhibit of the work of Mr. Walter Ghman Page, of Boston, who has recently come to Indianapolis. The ex,hibit Is hung in the Lieber galkry, where it will probably remain until the end of the week. Yesterday the exhibit was opened to the press and the personal friends of the artlct, and to-day and the remaining days it will be open to the public. Mr. Page has the rare art of making his canvases interesting not merely as portraits, but s pictures. th::t they appeal even to these to whom the likeness is of no value because they do not know the sitters. Each one of the portraits shown has the charm of a well-painttd picture of artistic conception and technique as well as the value of a faithful portrait. Of the six pictures two are Indianapolis portraits one of Mrs. John W. Holtzman. the other of Judge A. B. Anderson. Mrs. Holtzman's portrait is delightful in its beauty of coloring and its grace of drawing. The light effects are unusually well managed and add to the attraetiveiu.s of the picture. As a likeness it is excellent and it has the personal charm of the sitter without the uninteresting stiffness of effect that the faithful portrait study is apt to possess. The portrait of Judge Anderson is a spirited piece of brush work, sure in execution, but subtly unu delicately handled. Tu largest lanvns in the exhibit is a three)u rter length portrait of one of Vic voua ?- er society women of Boston -a t irlking figure in white, gracefully posed The girl's head 13 turned to one side and there is an intent, expectant expression on her lac. entirely a different effect from the ordinary portrait which insists on storing out of the eaavaa directly at you. A portrait of the Hon. George MacNedl. of Boston, is strong and clear, the flesh tones exceptionally good. The flowing white hair :ind b -ard, the -.dear-cut nose, the keen eyes overhung bv heavy brow?, make the portrait notaMfl OXU and there is a greater attention to exactness of d tail in Its treatment than in any of the other of the canvases. The portrait of Mr. K 11. Presbre. vice president of the Dos ton Bank of Redemption, is also clear and strong in its handling, but its effects are acq.ulred by broader brush w rk than the former portrait shows. The only eanvas not a portrait in the exhibit Is the head of a young girl a chic, dainty, em in -. with soft dr.i-. r:-5 and a love ;l t;;, in.-boroujrh hat. The canvas in Its charm of color and gm co of line is itapls an accentuated 1 preasion of that pictorial quality which Mr. Page gives to his oi u ,-iits. Mr. Page's portraits difft r a.-- materially in treatment as in subject and the six canvases are o unlike eaeh other ih.it x'.-, , - hibit. though small, gives a comprehen?dve idea f the painter's art. Mr. Page studies his sitters ami paints each one in tho m inner in which his individuality impieMea itself upon him. He do s not keep nUnielf to one style of handling, but varies his treatment of a canvas to harmonise with his comprehension of his sitter. lie works rapidly and to that is due much of the vigor of his canvases. Mi. Page, with his wife, has :i in Indiapipniis fir icii..l v--ks .Mio will reliably remain here until late in the spring. They will return to Iloston then, but will probably co;.ie Liter to Indianapolis to remain permanently, in which ease Mr. Page will be a valuable addition to the arthalic.

JULIA MARLOWE. Who has Ju3t returned to the stage after a two months' rest and who is soon to be seen here. Fields will part company at the end of the present season, each going his own way. There have been rumors on several occasions during the last two or three years of estrangement between the comedianmanagers, but whenever such stories have been circulated both Lew Fields and Joseph Weber have insisted that their relations were most cordial and that the thought of a dissolution of the partnership had never entered their heads. Of late, however, if the report is to be credited, disagreements between the two successful theatrical magnates have been quite common and in New York it is said that this will surely be their last season together. Heinrich Conreld docs not think that "Parsifal" in English will be a success. He gave expression to this opinion the other day when he heard that Henry W. Savage Intended to present an English version of Wagner's masterpiece. "I spent six months getting together costumes, scenery and tther accessories for the production at the Metropolitan," he said. "Furthermore, the stage of the opera house had to be rebuilt at great expense. I don't know of any other stage fit for the presentation of 'Parsifal.' Herr Conreid said that to present "Parsifal" in English would be a "desecration" which is just exactly what Frau Wagner said of Herr Conreld s presentation of it in New York. John Cecil Clay, the famous artist, whose drawings are such a prominent feature of Life and other periodicals, has made a poster of Wright Lorimer in the character of David, the shepherd boy, which role Mr. Ltivtafr will play In his production of "The Shepherd King." This poster has been r -produced as a lithograph in ten colors, and is said to be the most artistic, attractive and expensive specimen of this class of work ever used to advertise a theatrical production. It is being eagerly sought after by art collectors. "The Isle of Spice," a musical comedy with a Chicago indorsement, will be the attraction at English's the latter half of next week. It is said to be a bright show, with many very catchy songs and choruses. The piece had a long run In Chicago previous to the great fire. The cast Is headed by Harry Kelly, who is best remembered in Indianapolis for his humorous portrayal of Sinbad. the sailor, in the extravaganza. "Jack and the Beanstalk." The company is a large one and is credited with being a very capable organization. This evening will be "Eagles night" at the Umpire and over 200 seats in the theater h:ive been reserved for members of that society, of which Manager Sheridan, of the City Sports Burlesque Company, is a member. The show at the Empire this week is a very entertaining one, with a number of excellent features, and is proving a good drawing card. Edmund F. Dixey, a once-famous minstrel, died yesterday at his home in Philadelphia of congestion of the lungs. Mr. Dixey was formerly associated with John L Carncross In the ownership of Carncross & Dixey's Minstrels, and for years the combination gave performances all over the country. Mr. Dixey retired from the stage nearly twenty years ago. life of the city. Mr. Page is one of the foremost of the portrait painters of uoston and is well known throughout the country. He was In 1'aris for four years at the Academy Julien and was a regular exhibitor at the Paris Salon. He has had canvases at all of the exhibitions of note of recent years in America. Mr. Page finds Indianapolis a delightful city for residence and believes that there is a movement now astir here which will result in making the city a gnat art center. The fT.rts of the Herron Art Institute, in Ha exhibits, the work of the Indiana group of artists and the general reaching out of the people toward artistic growth, be believes, will all work together to accomplish valuable results. Mr. Page is deeply interest d in all artistic mutters aside from his own work and one of his pet hobbies is the interior decoration of schoolhouses. He was the organizer of the tirst public school MMgtM along this line in Boon and for three years served as a school commissioner there. He believes that it is through tho education oi the children than an art-loving race will be formed. Mr. Page had much to say when seem yesterday in prnise of tie vi'-rk of tin Indiana artists and incidentally also he spoke of the portmit of James Whitcomb Riley by Sargent, whom he regards as the greatest of the portrait painters of the country. "It seems to me that that is one point where the artistic appreciation of Indianapolis people falls short." he said. "I regard the portrait as a wonderful piece of work and I think the people of Indianapolis should feel honored to hav- so magnificent a portrait of their poet painted bjr the great artist." Mr. and lira. Page are at ihe Claypool, where they will remain until having for Boston. Forestr Hoard in Session.

The painted shirtwaist sets are still In vogue and most of the new ones show Jewels in addition to the painted designs. The newer sets have five small buttons instead of the thre- large ones of last summertide, and the effect is very much prettier. The man or girl who likes odd bits of jewelry will find Joy in the bulldog set shown by one jeweler. The doggie looks a? tierce as though he were flesh and blood instead of sterling silver, and the red Jewels which form his eyes help out the effect of ferocity. The rut includes a scarf-pin and cuff-buttons, each ornamented with a red-eyed head. Lace waists are never handsomer than when they are fashioned in coat effects and a bodice- of heavy yellow lace fashioned in this style has distinction among the array of spring bodices. The coat has an underlining of white satin and is decorated with shaped bands of stitched white crepe, the cream and white combinations being, as always, exceedingly effective. The shirtwaist pins lose nothing of their favor, as the handiness as well as the beauty of the little pins keeps their popularity green with modish women. Some of the pretty new sets are larger in design than previous ones and the French gray silver is especially favored for their development. Of the latter designs, the pansy blossoms and the sweet violets, single flowers on each pin, are among the prettiest. One of the now spring frocks shows a pretty use of shirring for a collar or applied yoke. The material of the gown is a fine black voile and the waist is fashioned in jacket effect, collarl ss, but with a deep band of stitched silk to finish the neck. The band is set over a deep round yoke which reaches to the shoulders and Is formed of row upon row of shirrs all hold fiat to the shoulders and ending in a tiny frill of the goods. 31 e ii a for n.

The cost is very small a halfday from the carpenter and a dollar's worth of roots from the florist; the care is nothing. The interesting group of wild-flowers which can be raised by the aid of the pump will be quite different from the usual row of dusty geraniums and the straggling nasturtiums essayed by the average woman with a bit of yard. A small catch-basin should be paved with pebbles or broken bits of marble, the stones rammed well down into the turf. This basin helps to spread out and distribute the water. The ordinary daily use of the pump for domestic purposes is quite sufficient to keep a piece of ground ten feet square in a damp condition. A small garden of this kind may be started with tuch plants as cardinal flowers, purple gentians, blue flags, Japanese umbrella plants, water sunflowers, myosotls or forget-me-nots, violets, marsh marigold and swamp mallows. These furnish a succession of blooms for many weeks. The roots of all these plants may be obtained from any florist for ubout 10 cents each. The Wo in u n it t tlic Box Office. New York Telegram. "It makes me tired just, to mention that word 'nerves,' " the box-office man went on. "You never can tell in just what form they'll break out in a woman. We had an awful case the other day. I didn't know what to do for a few moments. I wanted to k'-ep our rules, but I felt a little sorry for the woman and mighty sorry for myself. Really, I'm a modest man and didn't like to be conspicuous, and she was attracting the crowd's attention. 'The woman was elderly and looked as if she wire used to being cared for. When she came to buy her ticket, Instead of taking her proper place in the line she stepped up beside the person at the window. 'I want a seat in the orchestra,' she said. We try to make people keep the rules here, so I replied to her, 'Just step into the line, madam, and I'll give up what you want.' She took one look back at the line and burst into tears. 'If I do that,' she sobb.-d, 'there won't be a good seat left. I'm paying my money, and I don't sec why I can't have a seat now:' She didn't move a step, but just stood still and cried. I couldn't stand that, so 1 got her the tiedtets as soon as possible to get rid of her." HOME DRESSMAKING HINTS. By MAY M ANTON.

LARGE AHD TOLERANT lUIICEJRKTS PATH (CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.) s understood that Charles K. Harris, com poser, has something to do with the financial end of the Pattl tour, and that it is for this reason that the diva is obliged to sing this dreadful song of his every time she appears in public. It is the sort of song one hears at the vaudeville show with stereopticon pictures, perhaps a little worse. It Is without rhyme, without reason, without melody, and though Pntti may be forgiven many things Americans are a good-natured people it will be hard to forgive her for becoming so hopelessly entangled with "The Iast Farewell" that she couldn't get rid of it without indicting it on an unsuspecting public. In respect of Patti's voice, what is to be said of it at this belated period? One hesitates to criticise this dear old lady "dear," it is true, in both senses of the word when one remembers the great pleasure she has afforded the civilized world for fifty years. The Queen of Song she has been for so long a time that many thousands of people consider the name of Pattl synonymous with all that Is greatest and most wonderful in music. "I'm going to hear Pattl to-night, said an enthusiastic little woman on a trolley car that was making Its way down town last evening. And then, fearful that the acquaintance to whom she was speaking might be one of those unfortunates unmindful of "who's who," she added hastily: "The real Patti, you know the true Patti." She wished it distinctly understood that it was neither the Black Patti nor anyother imitation Patti that she was going to hear but the genuine Adelina Pattl. It never occurred to this woman that Patti at sixty-two corM not possibly be the same Patti that her parents had rapturously applauded many, many years ago. Patti. to her mind, had always been, and ever would be the personification of melody in its purest form. And there were hundreds of others, doubtless, in last night's audience who had cultivated the säme reverential feeling toward this world-famous lyric artist unconsciously bestowing upon her the same idolatry that the heathen confers upon his goddess. And were these enthusiasts disenchanted? Well, to those who have never heard Patti sing before there must have come doubts as to the justice shown Ly the musical world in crowning her queen of all queens of song, and to those who had heard her sing when she was in the height of her glorious career last night's concert must have had its distressing features. THE MIDDLE REGISTER. But let it not be imagined that Patti can no longer sing at all. She can sing within her enforced limitations. The clear, high tones have faded away with tho years; the lower tones are far from rich and vibrant, but the middle register is still fresh, after a half-century of constant use, and retains, well-nigh unimpaired, the delicious sweetness and bell-like timbre of early womanhood. She Is no longer capable of miraculous vocalization, but she still sings with certainty and finish, so long as she avoids and she does avoid as much as possible imposing the smallest unnatural strain upon the mechanism of her vocal chords. She sings easily, for the most part, for the very reason that she has been far-seeing enough to have her selections all rearranged so that the extreme high notes and the extreme low notes will not be in evidence to any appreciable extent. In his "Twenty Years of Musical Life in London." Hermann Klein says that Patti never studied the art of producing and emitting the voice that nature, alone and unaided, accomplished that marvel. It is doubtless true that of all the great singers that the world has known there has been no other example of such perfect preservation of the voice; for Is it not astonishing that Patti, at sixty-two, is able to sing as well as many sopranos now before the public? But, on the other hand, was it not inartistic of her and unpardonably avaricious of her managers to make this final tour of America and ask her old admirers and the new generation of music-lovers to pay the same high prices to hear her sing that were paid, quite willingly, in the days when she was worth the money? The company that has been engaged to support Patti on her present tonr is not the sort of organization one would expect to find with a queen of song. The four soloists are young musicians of talent, but there was nothing In their work last night calling for expressions of enthusiastic approval. Vera MargoIi-s, who is said to be a protege of the diva, proved to be a young pianist wih a sweet, girlish face and a modest manner. Her playing did not lack mechanical force and she Feemed to be possessed of the patience to accomplish wonders If she but possessed the temperament, which, unfortunately, was missing. She gave two Liszt numbers and played both of them in rather amateurish fashion. Wilfred Virgo, a tenor from London, sang hl3 selections Gounod's "Lend Me Your Aid." from "Qnpn of Shba," and an air from Coring Thomas's "Esmeralda" in a clear, true voice, but with little or no expression. Miss Roza Zamels. the violinist, played Wienia wski's fantasie arrangement from "Faust" with considerable skill and avt another number In pleasing style. The baritone, Claude A. Cunningham, a handsome young man with a good voice, rendered the aria. "Erl tu" from Verdi's "T'n Bali In Maschera." and Wagner's lovely "Evening Star" from "Tannhauser," giving the latter number a praiseworthy interpretation. The concert concluded with a duet for tenor and baritone, sung by Mr. Virgo and Mr. Cunningham. The number was the s lection from Flotow's "Stradella." leading tip to the Jolly laughing passage. It was. one of life's little Ironies that this concert sh-uld have wound up with a laughing song. ltielimorid ha ntamiiin 1'luni. Sp' .i.-il :n ih In-iianaj :S .) lurr.al. RICHMOND. Ind..
