AUDIENCE AT PROPYLAEUM HEARS A REAL MELO-DRAMA Rendition of Tennyson s "Enoch Arden" by Pianist and Reciter, Fulfil is Poet's Conception and Musician s Motif

In the lives of Indianapolis musie-lovera auch treats are rare as was accorded them by Mr. Warner Ross and Mr. Paul Erdmann Teich.Tt at the Propyleum yesterdayafternoon. Richard Strausss musical interpretation of Tennyson's ''Enoch Arden" has never before been heard in this city, and it received a worthy introduction at the hands of these two local artists. The entertainment was an invitational affair in charge of Mrs. Ona B. Talbot, who acted as hostess to an audience which comfortably filled the large lecture room on the first floor. Mr. Telchert opened the performance with a few words explanatory of the composition. He said: " 'Enoch Arden' is an arrangement for a reader and a piano of Tonnyson'a poem, by RU hard Strauss, he foremost German composer of the day. He calls it a melodrama, using the word in its original meaning, which ia a poem or drama with incidental musir. Strictly, this is a further development of the old musical monologue form, but Mr. Strauss has divided the work and thus removed the objection that one person cannot do Justice to both the poem and the score. Structurally. 'Enoch Arden' is in the modern dramatic mode, which was raised to its highest power by Wagner In his musicdrama that is, the character, their material circumstances and special activities are represented by special motifs. These themes are the principal e'ements in the musical fabric."' Mr. Telchert further coached the understanding of the audience by playing the motifs of the principal characters Enoch Ardeu. Annie Lee and Philip Ray. The musicisu's powers of technique and Interpretation are too well knowu in Indianapolis to require comment, but those who are best acquainted with his playing declare that Mr Teichert surpassed himself in this Strauss music. He succeeded in impressing Ms auditors with the fact that he felt, as he compelled them to frei, the full force of this mighty trag-dy of homely life; it was at if the musical direction "mit Gefuehi" had been written broad across th core as he played it. Mr. Ross's debut as a reader In Indianapolis could scarcely have been made under more favorable circumstances. He possesses a voles of remarkable richness and sonorousness, expressiv and excellently MAIMS STORE FOR WOMAN I AND KOOS HER DAUGHTER Arrest of Son-in-Law Reveals Counterplot Wind) Has Sequel iti Acquittal.

Wouldn't it be a pretty good plan to buy your suitcase now while you are making your plans? We have an elegant full leather with all conveniences, modulated. He read Tennyson's lines as they should be read with dignity. EMOTION NOT NKEDED. An emotional elocutionist would utterly have ruined the effect the poet created and which Mr. Ross so understanding conveyed. The passion In the lines was never Intended to be torn to tatters; it is too dees for emotionalism. This is a rock on which many a reciter has foundered, who forgets BcsJller'a words. "The shallows chatter, but the deeps are dumb." That Mr. Ross appreciated this need of temperate repression is a matter for congratulation; it proved his ability to fail in with the mood both of the poet and the COipOSSf. To the uninitiated the whole performance was a revelation; to those of musical erudition is could scarcely have been less. The poem "Eno h Arden" is one of Tennyson's compositions which has come in for a large amount of adverse criticism; it has been said that the story is too simple for Its elaborate setting; that it is loaded down with detail. Why the German composer should have chosen it as a vehicle rather than some poem possessing i.iore rapid action and unrepressed passion Is a question naturally asked, but easily answered by any one who iias heard the music. In th first place there Is that element which has been the keynote of all drama from the beginning Fate. There Is no evil in the tragedy; w OSt .sins SSOSftt life itself and Nemegis works the doom unaided. Second, there Is the supernatural element so dear to the musician who is always a mystic. PROPH KC Y OF Fl TI KE BRIDE. It begins at the unconscious prophecy in the opening lines "said she would be little wife to both" and is always present through Annie's premonitions and dreams, up to its eeriest manifestation, the far-distant pealing of the wedding bells heard half across the world by Enoch on his lonely island. And. third, the tight that rages in the man himself and the noble victory of his self-sacrifice. These are the things that must have appealed to Strauss and made him choose this gem out of all English literature to interpret in the language of music. At the close of yesterday's performance a reception was held for Mr. Ross and Mr. Teicher. and refreshments were served. The performers are making engagements to give the entertainment In a number of Indiana towna during the coming spring. Their venture has every prospect of the success it J emphatically deserves. TWO CHURCHES WAR OVER PECULIARARRANGEMENT One HoiltC of Worship for Both, but Reformed Congregation Refuses t Move. WAGE FIGHT IX COURTS Two church congregations, owning and using the same edifice for worship, have caused seemingly endless litigation in Kock Creek township. Wells county. Yesterday the ease was appealed from the Wells Circuit Court to the Appellate Court under th title of St. Paul Lutheran Congregation. Northern Indiana Synod, vs. Eli Houtz and others. Many years ago the church was built in Rock Creek township Jointly by the Lutheran and Reformed congregations. The : i. ndants were members of the latter. Each church seen pied the house of worship on alternate Sundays, until about eighteen months ao, when it is claimed that the Reformed congregation commenced to occupy it continuously with a aeries of revival me-tlngs. and since then has refused to yield possession. An injunction and restraining order were secured in Wells county, and after much contention and repeated appeals the end i not yet in sight. The defendants were upheld by the Wells Circuit Court two weeks ago and the plaintiffs have appealed to the State courts. Til I JOIIIN AL'S MitIN DEPARTMEM ; Knr the Use of Joarnnl Subscribers.

Variety. 3 and 8 p. m. -Why Birta Leave Home." ' Why Girls Leave Home." title which does not indicate the full value of the play, pleastd the audience at the Park last night. In developing the plot, which at times approaches the borderline of propriety, the company carefully whipped the action within the confines of wholesomeness and sought to make Its greatest strength lean upon the dashes of romance. It is a melodrama which does not depend upon red tire or burning powdsr to give it interest and it does not resort to mechanical contrivances, althougn it is effectively mounted. Pearl Sherwood a pure-minded girl in a family near New York, and she responds when the dazzling lights of the city invite her to come and participate in its follies. There is a scene in a wineroom where a good deal of the roguery is developed, and where Peaxl Sherwood throws wine Into the faces of those who connive against her and flees from the path she is following. From that time until the knavery is overtaken there is excitement of varied kinds. She is abducted, held prisoner, is the victim of a scheming woman and a man who is thoroughly bad, but in the end she escapes it all. The part of Pearl Sherwood leans heavily upon Ellen Bayer, a capable young woman, who is equal to the task of taking care of herself at trying times and in giving weight to the love story. If the ill-will of an audience is to be taken as approval of the good work in the development of rascality, then Anna- Marie Schafer. in the part of Dolly Fletcher, was a glowing success as a designing woman. One of the difficult characters falls to Walter Walker, in the role of Pearl Sherwood's brother, when he dips into the villainy, gives the sister the impression that he is against her, but at all times trying to shield her. Robert Smiley. Oscar Biggs. Walter B. Gilbert, Gene Gautler, Katherine Cherry and Florence Lois Weber were all spirited in their parts, glossing over the plot at times when it was In need of burnishing. There is a good deal of comedy that Is so well developed that it saves some of the heavier phases of the plot. The engagement closes to-night. Theatrical Notes. "The Isle of Spice" entertained another audience of fair size at English's last night. The new musical extravaganza t.om Chicago is a very lively show, with some laughable dialogue, funny situations and bright musical numbers. While the authors of the libretto have not shown great originality in preparing their story, and while the composers have not hesitated to borrow from other melody writers, the piece is so well put together that it affords an evening of good amusement. The scenic effects are pretty, the costumes von handsome and the chorus is an unusually competent one. Harry Kelly, who danres Just as he used to danee when he was the restless Sinbad the Sailor In the old extravagansa. "Jack and the Beanstalk." furnishes plenty of fun in the chief comedy part, and other principals who acquit themselves creditably are Denman Maley, Toby Lyons, M itri. Marts, Leslie Leigh and Helen Royton. "The Isle of Spice" will close its engagement at English's with a matinee and evening performance to-day. e Valerie Bergere, one of the best comediennes on the vaudeville stage, will head the Grand's programme next week, giving a little playlet entitled "Jimmy's Experiment." with which she scored a great success in Chicago. The Jackson family, wonderful trick cyclists, will have the second place on the programme, and the other specialties will be contributed by the following performers: Ward and Curran, in their laughable courtroom scene, introducing comical dialogue and some good songs: Murphy and Willard. in a comedy musical a t; the Two Lamonts. premier acrob.tts. the Silvers, in an illustrated song act; Furgeson and Passnurt;, in a singing and dancing specialty, and the McAvoys. In a EXPENSIVE PARIS GOWNS DISPLAYED AT OPENING Fortunes Represented in Bridal Rotes Exhibited in North Meridian-Street Shop. An exhibit of beautiful gowns, all of them with two exceptions from famous Parisian makers Paquin. Doucet, Collet, Agnes, Francois and many others dainty separate waists, and a wealth of exquisite fabrics and rich trimming form the display at the opening of the Holder-Putnam Company, 312 North Meridian street. One of the upstairs rooms is devoted to a showing of black and white frocks and in this room are displayed three wedding gowns of which the establishment will make a feature. One of the robes is of re Duchesse designed especially for Paquin. Its price is $1.250 and the others are also handsome lace robes. One of the prettiest of the black frocks is of real Chantilly late of wonderful delicacy. The overdress of the lace sets over a flounce of fine net set with bayadere rows of black velvet ribbons. Walttf nf all description from plain tailored shirtwaists to elaborate silk and linen bodies, handsome imported trimmings, smart collars and belts are among the attractive things shown. A large number of exquisite materials are also shown chiffon velvets, new foulards which at $7 a yard are quite unlike the ordinary foulards organdies, satins, and all manner of fabrics for spring or summer gowns. Fabrics designed especially for bridesmaid frocks are also shown. Only one pattern of each design is carried and the modish woman Is assured exclusiveness in her frock. Madame Josephine Oupre, recently a designer with Paquin, Miss Mary M. Laughlin and Mr. George Holder are with the establishment. WONDERFUL WORK OF SKIRT-MAKING MACHINE It Is Thought the Young Women Will Break Records by To-Day. Indianapolis women have taken much interest in the exhibit of skirt making by machinery which has been going on at the I,. S Ayres store. Four young w m n operators, driving electrically propelled machines, have been turning out a complete petticoat every eight minutes during the week, and If the machines behave themselves, by noon to-day the four operators will have nearly four hundred three ruffled petticoats to their credit. This is probably a world's record in rapid sewing and was an impossible achievement previous to th invention of thee machine.-. Much of the prejudice entertained agiiln-t r. ,p! -made garments or suppo.-ed w- -shop manufacture, has been removed since a view of the methods, which are those employed by most tirst-class makers. Machines which carry two needles nnd stitch, ruffle and braid at the rate of 17stitches a minute, without shuttle or bobbin, are worth seeing and many visitors have Nen entertained during the week by a sight of the machines and the dexterity of the oerators. A number of local manufacturers visited the demonstration one morning this week and were much impressed with the wonderful accuracy and diversified function- f the machines. The exhibition will end shortly after noon to-day. Craig's caudles are c rtaiuly good.

HARRY KELLY. In "The Isle of Spice" at English1, farcical sketch. The bioscope will provide an attractive set of new animated pictures. t According to the New York play reviewers, American types are strongly developed in Clyde Fitch's comedy, "Her Own Way," which Maxlne Elliott will present at English's the tirst two nights ot next week. The most striking; character la the play is Mr. Fitch's portrait of a modern, Inder ndent American girl, typified by Miss Elliott, who insists upon doing as she pleases in affairs vital to her welfare. There are other interesting characters, too B rugged, unscrupulous man from the West, a manly American soldier, a scheming society woman, a frivolous social climber, a common "lady hair dresser," and a weak speculator in Wall street. The piece Is considered by many critics to be Fitch's best play. The seats for the Indianapolis engagement are i.ow on sale. Louis James and Frederick Warde have ended a successful tour of the Pacific coast and are now tilling engagements in the important Western cities, where they are extremely popular and always draw large audiences Their repertory includes W.il'"iihals & Kemper's sumptuous production of "Alexander the Great" and two or three Shakspearean plays. The tragedians are having the most prosperous tour that they have ever known. It is said that the season will show a protit of $50.00n. They will play an engagement in this city early in April. Blanche Walsh in "Resurrection" is en route to the Pacific coast, where she is to present the Tolstoi drama during the months of March and April. She is doing an exceedingly tine business and could continue in this play for another season, but her managers. Wagenhals & Kemper, have decided to produce a new society drama next fall with Miss Walsh as the heroine. It is several years since this actress has been seen in a play of this sort. It will be an interesting event to her many friends and admirers. The value of the firm name of Weber & Fields for road purposes is realized when one knows that in two weeks in San Francisco the gross receipts of the big burlesque company were approximately IflO.OUO. It has frequently beeh said that Weber & Fields could easily earn $100,00 annually for the next five years by appearing exclusively in what is known as the provinces. Weber's fortune amount to föuü.OUO and Fields has accumulated nearly an equal amount. Robie's Burlesquers will conclude their engagement at the Empire to-day with matinee and evening performances. The show has enjoyed a prosperous week and has deserved the patronage it received, as it is one of the best burlesque organizations to visit Indianapolis this season. The Empire's attraction next week will be Clarke's "Runaway Girls "a musical travesty combination, including several vaudeville acta of prominence.

One of the unusual looking fabrics shown for trimming or for evening frocks is a fine net covered with small round sequins. The coloring in the latter is that of mother-of-pearl and the pretty things form a most effective decoration. One of the moct effective of the new draperies, which will hang beautifully either as overdraperies for lace or net curtains, or for the door, is of white grenadine patterned into squares and set with tiny fleur At Ma. ! In the center of the lengths at regular I im. r in ct a 1,1 rin which a liriL'h! yellow dragon disports himself. Girdles of soft bright -colored silks are among the accompaniments of many of the models shown for the summer gowns and the wiUe new ribbons with their exquisite colors and handsome designs are the facored medium for their dveiopment. The girdles finish with bows or overlapping shirrs at the back, which Is deeply pointed. f The blouse effect is the coming idea for spring and summer frocks and even the 1 i t - Tl. -eparate waists of white lawn and lir. n will show the very full blouse in front aud back. The more voluminous skirts demand the baggy effect in waists, so this summer will be a halcyon time for the too slim woman. Taffeta belts embroidered with gold thread in conventional patterns, and set at Intervals with buttons worked heavily in the gilt thread, are among the new ideas for spring frock accessories. Wide silk elastic Is also used for belts and one of the smart new things in that material has a design of cut steel beads set with colored jewels and with sandsome pansy ornaments In the front and back.
