LADY ARTHUR HUGH GR0SVEN0R, SOCIETY BEAUTY, Lady Grosvenor was Helen Sheffield, daughter of Sir R. Sheffield, baronet, and comes from an old family. She was a belle before her marriage ami is stlU one of London's reigning beauties. Lord Grosvenor served in the Boer war.

AT THE THEATERS Vaudeville at the Gennett. Perhaps few singes of illustrated songs have, less trouble committing them to memory than Ernest Renk, who officiates In this capacity at the Gennett. Each week he is required to sing two new songs, the copy of which reaches him only a short time befo.e and it is said that he never looks at the words until the Sunday evening preceding the Monday afternoon when the songs are first to be given. Mr. Renk never forgets and he never carries the manuscript of a song with him. His songs this week are "Will I Find My Mama There?" a pathetic number and "Back Among the Clover and the Bees," a sensational ditty. Some times the public, from hearing a performer so frequently fails to give him full credit for his work and this Is somewhat the case with Mr. Renk and w(th Prof. Gus Fredericks, the faithful .pianist, the requirements, ..up on whom, owing to the great variety of music offered, are little known to the public. This weeks bill at the Gennett is a pleasing one and the patronage, despite competition that, is much out of the ordinary is quite .-satisfactory. Included in the. program are German comedy, novelty change acts, vocal numbers, Japanese balanc ers and Juggling, motion pictures and a fine specimen of the Great American tramp. Jules Held, at the Gennett with Anna Barton. Vaudeville at the Phillips. It is truly remarkable the things that Parish, ventriloquist at the New Phillips this week, is able to do with his voice, making intimate objects talk, apparently, with so much ease that it Is not even necessary for him to move his lips. He affects tlie Irish, Negro and other brogues, with great success. Ames and Feathers, comedy acrobats are a strong team, and the "funny" portion of the team is really funny, and that is a high compliment to pay to an acrobatic comedian. Not only is he funny but he is an acrobat as well. Of course there is much interest in the Bootblack Quartet, as naturally such an organization would arose curiosity. This is a clever aggregation that makes good with the audience immediately and has a hard time to get off the stage One of the number appears in the role of a messenger boy and he has the turn down to a nicety. Manager O. G. Murray, of the New Phillips, will leave for Columbus. Ind., today to make arrangements for the opening of the Sun-Murray vaudeville theater in that place on June 4.. , This is the eighth house that will b.8 under the control of Messrs Muiray and Sun. It will be called "The Orphium.". This Is also the name of the new house just opened at Lima, O., and to wkvh the paper of that city dSTotQ.more than a column of space each day It is described as "a swell little theater."

HOPES FOR THE FUTURE

CIVIL SERVICE CHANGES. Congressman Watson Announces that he does not Expect any Modification in the Statute Before the Next Ses sion of Congress. Palladium Special.! Washington, May 29. There will be no tampering with civil service at this session of congress. Represantative Watson's movement for a modification of the law so as to abolish the civil service commission and provide fixed tenure for all .government employes, examinations to be conducted by the heads of departments, will not bring forth any results at this session. "I didn't really hope to secure any legislation until the next session," said Mr. Watson a few days ago, just before he left Washington . for Indiana "but I. wished to get the subject introduced and I feel that something has been accomplished although congress has taken no action." .Watson has had several conferences of late with members who are opposed to the present civil law and he will start the ball rolling early next session. "Man In the Street." Emerson was not the first to use this phrase in his "Conduct of Life," which was published in 18G0. In the first-series of the "Greville Memoirs, under date March 22, 1830, occurs the following passage: "Then will come the question of a dissolution, which one side affirms will take place directly, and the other that the king will not consent to it, knowing, os 'the man In the street' (as we call him at Newmarket) always does, the greatest secrets of kings and being the confidant of their most hidden thoughts." It would appear from this thnt the expression was in common use among racing , men In . 1830. Notes and Queries. The Drama of the Snnaet. We never tire of the drama of sunset. I go forth each afternoon and look Into the west a quarter of an hour before sunset with fresh curiosity to see what new picture will be painted there, what new phenomenon exhibited, what new dissolving views. Every day a new picture is painted and framed, held up for half an hour in such lights a the great artist chooses and then withdrawn and the curtain falls. The sun goes down, long the afterglow gives light, the damask curtains glow along the western window, the first 6tar is lit. and I go home, From Tboreau's "Winter." PoTrer ot Word. Words have not their import from the natural power of particular combinations of characters or from the real efficacy of certain sounds, but from the consent of those who use them and arbitrarily annex certain ideas to them, which might have signified with equal propriety by any other.

THE HALL OF FAME. George Cabot Lodge, Egyptologist, poet and student. Is his father's private secretary in the United States senate. The present chief of police of San Francisco, Jeremiah Dinan, was born In Boston and went to San Francisco in 1370. Sergeant Iloratlo J. Ilomer is the only colored man in the Boston police department, where he has been since 1873. lie Is proficient on eleven different musical instruments. Chaplain Rev. Francis Doherty of the Seventeenth United States infantry, stationed at Fort MePherson, edits a little paper called the Haversack, which is widely read among soldiers and is frequently copied. Major General Frederick Dent Grant, commander of the eastern division of the United States army, has asked the international committee of the Young Men's Christian association to place its branches in every post under his command. Sheriff William P. Hays of Hamilton county, Tenn., says he has more sons without having other kind of children th111 anv man in fh conntrv Vln 1 lusty youngsters are in this interesting j family, and their ages range from six months to eighteen years. Few presiding officers of the senate have been as popular as Vice President Fairbanks with the officials of the senate. He has co-operated with them so as to expedite the business of the senate, and that is an important matter to the clerks, who desire to have the business closed up every day. William C. Brown, first vice president of the New York Central lines, with a salary of $73,000, the best paid vice president of a railroad in the United States, was In the early seventies a telegraph operator and messenger boy in Sioux City, la., receiving messages and deliveriug them himself. David C. St. Charles, an engineer of San Francisco, has Invented a repeater which will make it possible to telephone clear across the continent. What the so called "repeater" has done for telegraphy St. Charles' invention, it Is now claimed, has done for the telephone. The combining of the echo in nature with the sounding board of a violin furnished the clew to the discovery. FLY CATCHES. Richard Croker is furnishing the money to launch a baseball league In Dublin. Although .the season has just started some fans are inquiring about double headers. Donovan's Brooklyn team la weak, and the weakest spots are first base and shortstop. Bill Donovan advises young pitchers to avoid using the spit ball and stick to the out curve. ...... Napoleon Lajoie's health Is such that he is said to be in no danger of breaking down this year. Baltimore Is pleased with the general appearance of Pitcher Starkell, secured from Washington. The St. Louis Americans have sent Pitcher Buchanan to their St. Paul farm for more experience. Brooklyn may give up the drop in the box system Sunday games. Mutilated coin and buttons come too fast James Potter, former president and now director 'of the Philadelphia Nationals, is convalescing from an attack of blood poisoning. EDITORIAL FLINGS. That Russian official who caught a bomb thrown at him would make a valuable man for the czar to have behind the bat. Baltimore Sun. Jerome K. Jerome says, "You can't be funny all the time." It requires considerable effort for an Englishman to be funny any of the time. Baltimore Sun. Professor Moore has no reason to brag of predicting the weather for a month ahead. Some of the almanacs predict it for the whole year. New York American. Rhode Island Is planning a connected landscape gardening system that will take in three-fourths of the dwellings in the state. What a cute miniature park Little Rhody will make. St Louis Globe-Democrat. Some ingenious person has discovered that the word "senator,", by making a few changes in the order of the letters composing it, becomes treason." But it also makes "a nestor." And there you are. Chicago Tribune. FACTS FROM FRANCEFrench farmers are glad to get $1.93 for 100 liters (about twenty-six gallons) of common red wtne. A Frenchman cannot be a deputy until he is twenty-five years of age, while no Italian can legislate for his country bofore the age of thirty. Jean d'6rsay, discussing in the Paris Matin a proposition that swimming should be taught to Parisian school children, quotes a statistical return showing that the average number of baths taken a year by each person In France is four. With the exception of the larger towns the precautions against fire In France are remarkably Inadequate. Many towns of from 500 to 3,000 people have no water supply other than ordinary wells, operated generally by bucket draws instead of pomps, and no fire apparatus except occasionally a hand force pump. A JTatlaa of Steepen. "Rare slumberers are the Turks," declares a writer. "In the Tillages, at any rate, they will drop into the land of dreams on the slightest pretext and at the shortest notice. This habit has advantages, one being that the Turk does not at all mind being awakened in the dead of night for the simple reason that he can go to sleep again the instant he -wishea. When staying In very limited quarters I have often heard a member of the family get np and after searching about among his sleeping companions thoroughly ronss them all to ask wheffe his tobacco was or noon soma anally slight exenaa." .

NAILED TO THE CROSS.

The Two Thieves That Were Craeled With the Saviour. In nine out of ten pictures of the crucifixion where Christ's two companions in death are represented they are pictured as having been fastened to. the cross with thonga or cords. The question naturally arises, Were thtA thieves in reality bound to their different instruments of torture while the blessed Saviour was nailed to his? And, if to, which mode of death was considered the more. Ignominious binding or nailing? The remoteness of the event and the fact that in this case historical truth may have been sacrificed to pictorial effect make the above questions bard ones to answer. The early writers almost invariably refer to the thieves as having been nailed to the cross, while the early picture makers adhered to the general rule of representing them as having been tied or bound to their separate crosses. If we are to give any credence to the story of the holy Empress Helen and her reputed discovery of the thro crosses in the year 328 A. D., the two thieves were nailed to their crosses in a manner similar to that observed in the eruciflrion of the Saviour. This conclusion has been settled upon for this reason: When the three crosses were disinterred from the mound in which tradition said they had been burled, that upon which Christ had suffered was only distinguished from the other two by the miracles it performed. This would certainly suffice to prove that all three of the instruments of torture bore similar nail marks and that the tradition of Christ being the only one nailed was not known at thnt time. St. Louis RepubCtsar Sniolto and Love. In Siam the lighting of a cigar Indicates a betrothal. In that country a person wishing to become betrothed to the girl of his choice offers her a flower or takes a light from a cigar or a clga rette if 6he happens to have one in her mouth, and thereupon, provided there Is no impediment in the birth months and years of the respective parties, steps are at once taken to arrange for the payment of the (lowry. The faml lies of the bride and bridegroom have each to provide at least $1,000. In Calabria, as In certain parts of India, a lighted taper or a lighted pipe betokens the acceptance of the suitor for the hand of a lady in marriage. In Siberia it is the custom that when a suitor has been accepted by a girl she presents him with a box of cigars and a pair of slippers as a sign that he is to be master in the house. NOTICE.
