Mr. Loomls, who Is vice president of the Delaware Lackawanna , and Western Railroad, had placed at the disposal of the funeral party his private car for the trip to Elmira. ; There waa a silent crowd of admirers of Mark Twain at the station, too. At West Redding,, affecting displays of emotion were not scarce. Mr. Clemens' desire, for the utmost simplicity was obeyed, both in the journey from Stormfield, his Redding homo ,and the plans for the service today, as well as those for the service for the family, which will be held Sun- . day.

The transposition of letters In the same word sometimes produces the most ludicrous results. In "The Still Hour," which was written by Professor Phelps, Is the fine line, "The stillness of the hour Is the stillness of a dead calm at sea.

Acropantomimic Skit. The chanticleer novelty, the Lafayette Lamont Troupe, constitute the headliner at the Murray theater this week and with their many stunts will be sure to make a hit with Richmond audiences. Another headliner is the Cubanola Trio, who have proven a popular attraction this season because of their refined singing and novelty character changes. Lola Radcliffe7 character comedienne will add abundant variety to the fine bill and inter est all who enjoy high class work in this line. "Futurity Day" as presented by Lillian LeRoy & Co. is a sketch that will please all of the patrons of the Murray. The motion pictures round out the excellent bill. Goddess of Liberty. In these days when so many socalled "musical comedies" and the like are being passed off on the pub lic when they should long ago have found their rightful place in the waste baske.t of the author who had the real interest of the theater-going people of the land at heart. It is with a great deal of self pride that Mr. Mort Singer offers "The Goddess of Liberty" at the Gennett theater next Monday. Because he knows what he is offering, knows of the reputation the play has established and knows of the success with which it has met on every hand. ' . It is a well known fact that it takes a good production, an exceptionally good production, it might well be said, to run a, long time with as much success as has attended "The Goddess of Liberty" at the Princess theater in Chicago. That city will not stand for a mediocre play of any sort. If the play, musical or . otherwise, is bad it takes the theater-going people of Chi cago about twenty-four hours to find that fact out.. Richmond Stock Co. Richmond's own stock company which is appearing at the Gennett theater for the spring season, will put on St. Elmo for their second piece starting on Wednesday evening. This is the . Leffingwell version and is claimed to have ,. followed the book more closely than any other adaptation which has been put on the stage. Mr. John A. Preston who is the stage director, in a curtain speech the other night, said that he would put on exactly the kind of plays which the Richmond people desire, the plays which they are producing now, all cost from a hundred to two hundred and fifty dollars a week for the right mere ly to play them. It ca be readily seen that the more money the company makes the better plays they can give their patrons. Among the pieces in contemplation, are Shore Acres, Sa lome, Carter of the Lazy Y., The Lit tle Minister and others too numerous to mention. Miss Patsy. t Gertrude Quinlan, the original "Flora Wiggins" of "The College Widow scored one of the greatest successes of her career in Mr. Sav age's presentation of George Ade's amusing comedy during the long run in London. She was especially sent there after her retirement from the cast of "Tom Jones" and the Britishers hailed her as a character different from anything they were familiar with. Her acclaim was ' sincere and lond continued. As the loving blunderer in "Miss Patsy." Sewell Collins' character comedy, she has a role even more suited to her undoubted ability as a comedienne, than was that of "Flora Wiggins." The Third Degree. Charles Klein, the author of "The Lion and the Mouse, is responsible for "The Third Degree." his latest play, which comes to this city next Tuesday where it", will be seen at the Gennett theater under the management of Henry B. Harris. Prominent in the cast are Marlon Kerby, Lawrence Eddlnger, James Seeley, Irene Oshier, Alfred Moore, George Sey bolt and others. ' This play deals with a number of pertinent conditions that exist in our social life in large cities, and it is the purpose of Mr. Klein, by means of this play, to arouse a sentiment in opposition as he did with "The Lion and the Mouse,. as regards financial
and political conditions. The scenes are all laid in New York. The characters are prominent in the predominant social set. One of its members has been found dead, and the police, in order to refute the general charge of their Inefficiency, fasten the guilt on an innocent man, and though they discover that they are in error, they refuse to admit it. and bend every effort to fasten the guilt on the unfortunate creature they had placed under arrest, the .methods employed by the police clearly shown in a way most interesting and original. For the first time in the history of the stage, in "The Third Degree" will be portrayed the methods : of the police department, which in many instances have rivaled the inquisition for barbarity and cruelty. Mr. Klein has handled the subject deftly and adroitly in. a most ..convincing manner, and as a result this play should invite a large attendance to the performance in this city, :i Tsste and Smell. i Physiologists have long known that many sensations ordinarily ascribed to taste are In reality due to smell, but this fact has been made clearer than before by the investigations of German savants. Air enters the olfactory chamber, where the nerves connected with the sense of smell are centered, both through the nostrils and through an inlet leading from the mouth. In consequence a breath of perfumed air manifests its odor not only when it is breathed in. but when It is breathed out. For this reason we are sometimes deceived as to ths source of ths pleasure we derive from things taken Into the mouth, the agreeableness of the Impression 'being due. In gome cases, rather to smell than to taste. New York Herald. Pre-Columbian Voyages. ' Concerning the subject of the discovery of America John . Fiske says: "Nothing can be clearer from a survey of the whole subject than that these pre-Columbian voyages were quite barren of results of historic importance. In point of colonization they produced the two 111 fated settlements on the Greenland coast and nothing more; otherwise they made no real addition to the stock of geographical knowledge. They wrought no. effect whatever upon the European mind. In no sense was any real contact established between the eastern and western halves of our planet until the great voyage of Columbus in 1492." Nature's Work. There is not a moment of any day of onr lives when nature is not producing scene after scene, picture after picture, glory after glory, and working still upon such exquisite and constant principles of the most perfect beauty that it is quite certain that it Is all done for us and intended for our perpetual pleasure.

1.Points For Mothers v When one talks of a nagging wife it is generally to refer in pitying terms to 'the man whom she has married. Much more to be pitied, however, are the children of the marriage. A man can endure much and find a remedy in retaliation. . Bnt (sensitive children shrink from the continual fault finding and suffer in silence. What makes matters worse for the little ones is that there are many women who are regarded by their husbands as model wives, but who on account of their thoughtlessness toward their children are really not at all good mothers. , In fairness to many mothers it must b said that they unwittingly fall into the habit of nagjring their children.

The tiresome ways ot the latter seem more than they can bear at times, and the result is that they are apt to forget themselves.:"'1'"'". r "Don't do this" and "Don't do that" "Why can't you let things alone?" "1 never saw such a child." "You are i perfect worry, but wbat can one expect from such-a child? You are exactly like your father." etc.. ad nanseam, through all the nerve racking catalogue, of nag. And tbeu these, mothers honestlv wonder why their children are reduced to a s trite of sulky irritability. Such mothers never seem to take into consideration the fact that children are the most sensitive beings in the world and that their whole experience la made up of small joys and small sorrows that can make life a misery to them. " The Children's Playmates. No one. of course, thinks that a child's manners should be neglected, but there are ways of turning out well mannered children who are not at the same time hopeless snobs. The way to do this is to choose their playmates for their intrinsic worth as well as their culture. Home after all is the place where children get their polish, and by an afternoon's association . with other children they will neither acquire nor lose It. .

Even If Charlie's father 1 a coachman It is mocb better for a mother to say after his departure.

Moreover, if the next time Johu Is caught omitting the service at the doormat he remonstrates. "Charlie didn't do It. the mother needn't feel that the coachman's son has led her children astray. It Is a simple matter to say: "That has nothing to do with it; Charlie is not my little boy, but you sre. aud 1 expect you to obey me. His mother probably has him clean his feet in another way. and I haven't a doubt he obeys.her perfectly." Word Values. If the parent in general realized that as a child first learns to connect a certain idea with a certain word so he goes through life hampered or helped by that word, more care would Le used when explanations of these must be given. . We are all of us walking diction aries, teaching Hie youug idea how to shoot, and when in after life he shoots wrong we are apt to blame every one but ourselves, forgetting that long. long ago. when the hopeful In question was considered more as a wonderful

Care in detiniug a new word to a child often opeus up a whole new tield of observation, and it should be done as conscientiously as possible. A straight "I don't know" Is preferable to a careless or slipshod definition.

A certalu Turk, according to" the story. - was once ma rried ' to a veiled lady in white in the presence of ' the suftan. As soon as the ceremony was concluded the bride mysteriously disappeared. The groom was led into an adjoining room, where stood twelve ladies all dressed in white, but without veils. Choose from the twelve." exclaimed the sovereign, "her that Is your bride."
