FREDERICK 17ARDE 111 EVERY170f,ll"

Great Actor Interprets One of the Leading Roles "Everywoman" to Be Seen All This Week in the Murat, at Indianapolis.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. One of the most interesting plays and stage spectacles of the past season or two, "Everywoman," will be seen for a week, beginning today. In the Murat theatre, Indianapolis. Although this is the Western Company, it is not exceeded in either interest or accomplishment by the Eastern or "original," for in the former is Included Frederick Warde, Marie Walnright. Jane Oaker and others as distinguished. The interest in and love of theatrics is universal. And this cannot be otherwise, for, as -animadverted upon here frequently before, the dramatic art reflects life as we know it. And in its highest manifestation can be understood and comprehended of the most artistically unsophisticated and the limited, as well as the more catholic, mentality. That "a taste for acting is one of the strongest passions in human nature" as said by the author of "Alice in Wonderland" Is demonstrated every day and this is the reason for the success of amateur theatrics. And there is nothing more commendable, after a fashion, than their attempt. The public has regarded with pleasure and approval the incursion into this field on the part of Earlham College, where an attention to one of the greatest of the arts was long neglected, save in the reading and study of certain of the classics in the classroom, its presentations within the past few years having, on occasion, been notable. "Everywoman." is a symbolical play. In it are vlzualized spiritual quali ties, human passions, that whole mysterious fabric which makes up the sum of the individual. Which animates the visible. Which is the source of being. Which links you with the universe and which merely inhabits but is not a part of, the shell of flesh which is known as your particular entity and which other people call "You." It is a play which everyone having the opportunity should see. It was written by a young dramatist, Walter Brown, who, after a long struggle for recognition, won worldwide attention with this dramatic epic, which will one day be ranked as a classic. Tragically enougb, however, he was not to, know of his arrival upon the threshold of fame. For he died the day before the play's first presentation. There Is, perhaps, nothing sadder than this. Keats dying neglected, abused and obscure now one of the great names in the history of all literature. Poe unable to sell one of his inimitable lyrics for the price of a meal. "For God's sake, lend me forty dollars," he writes to a friend, "until I can get paid for" one of his immortal contributions to the world's literature. And yet, a few years ago. a copy of a small volume of poems, by Poe, issued at a loss, sold in the auction room for several thousand dollars great collectors competing for its possession one of the rarities, for only two copies are now known to exist. All others destroyed or lost. Hill of the Poison Plant. Close to the frontier of Nepal is the mountain of Sandook-Phu, which means la the Tibetan language "the hill of the poison plant," or aconite. This plant In so abundant and so deadly In its effects that all sheep and cattle passing over the mountain are muziled by their drivers. An English traveler saw at Its foot great heaps of dls-i carded bamboo muzzles. Curiously enougb, only those cattle that are newly Imported from the plains are fatally affected. The natives believe that the sheep of the district learn to shun the youngest leaves, which are the most virulent. A more likely explanation Is that they grow babitnated to the drug by taking It In small quantities. Americano Abroad. First American Tourist (in a Peril cafe) What shall we order?

Tet when the book waa published it was offered for fifty cents. The other day In New York a picture by a celebrated painter sold for $2500. The artist sold it for $150 to get enough money to pay bis rent and keep his family from starving. On the other hand temporary fame is sometimes an accident. Witness Pastor Wagner and "The Simple Life.". A second-rate French writer leapt Into brilliant conaplcutty because a certain ex-President of this country now very much before the public casually referred to It in an address. But it was mushroom fame. Is anyone competing for copies of "The Simple Life" in the auction room now? Not that you can notice. People are leading it. They don't want to read about it. It's only the people who don't have to lead it that like to read about it. "Elizabeth and her German Garden," was exquisite reading. But chiefly because we knew Elizabeth could trail round at courts if she wanted to. She was bored and preferr ed her German Garden or pretended to. This amused her and also us. But if Elizabeth had had to dig in her German Garden, by necessity, or forced pleasure, who'd have given a rap? Nobody. The truth is we all "like a lord." The taste of the day in literature is that of the chambermaid. We like to read about "dooks and earls" and ravishingly beautiful maidens and dark-browed villians and steely-eyed, lean heroes. Witness the majority of the "best sellers." However this is neither here nor there. And has little to do with "Everywoman." In the cast of the latter is, as just stated, Mr. Fredeick Warde who would be "worth the price of admission" alone. Frederick Warde is one of the few remaining exponents of the classic drama now on the American stage, for, although an Englishman, he has long been identified with the theatrics of this country. With Louis James, Warde, a few years ago, toured the United States in a Shakespearean repertory, playing to crowded houses from coast to coast, demonstrating that the love for the greatest in dramatic art, both in substance and interpretation, is deeper seated than theatrical managers may sometimes think. Frederick Warde is a scholar as well as an actor and one of the highest types of his profession, a refined exponent of his art and a charming gentleman of the old school. A few years ago he appeared here in the Gennett in a Shakespearean recital, which delighted his audience, a large and representative one. He is known to the theatre-goers of this city and no. doubt those who may be in Indianapolis this week will go to, near and see him in "Everywoman," if they do not go over expressly for that purpose. The Worth While Person. Certain qualities go to the making of any human being whom other hu man beings esteem. Certain lngredl ents are as necessary to a man as flour and yeast to bread or . Iron and carbon to steel. You cannot make tbem any other way. There Is a com blnatlon of steadiness . of purpose. breadth of mind, kindliness, wholesome common sense, Justice perhaps a flash of humor, certainly a capacity for the task in hand that produces a worth while person. The combination occurs in every rank' in life. Yon find it as often in the kitchen as in the parlor; oftener, perhaps, In the field than in the office. The people who are so com posed have spiritual length, breadth, thickness; they are people of three dimensions. Everybody feels alike about them. Atlantic. I The Primitive Man.

" OUST U THE AIR. iHa-lnfhtenos Upon the Sun's Heat In the Atmosphere. Whesi-the air is very thick and hazy it may contain floating dust particles to the tj amber of from 10,000 to 20,000 In every cubic centimeter, while a cubic centimeter of very clear air may contain only from a dozen to a few hundred partlclea. An. English observer's data Indicate that there. Is a relation between, the quantity of dust and the temperature of the-air. A great amount of dust. It Is thought. Increases the temperature in the daytime and checks the fall of temperature at night. The reason is that. the presence of dost serves as an obstruction to the free radiation of heat through the ah-. The sunbeams pass through very pure, clear air without lending much beat to It, and at night the beat received by the ground during the day readily escapes through the same air, but If the

atmosphere Is heavily laden with dust the sun's rays are partly arrested by the particles which, becoming heated, In turn warm the air, and in like manner beat radiated from the earth at night is retained In the hazy layers of air in contact with its' surface. Without its atmosphere, which serves as a coverlet to protect it against the fearful cold of space, the surface of the earth would be frozen like that of the airless moon.1 Bat the data gathered by reliable observers show that the atmospheric blanket wrapped around our planet varies in its power to retain heat In proportion to the amount of dust particles it contains.

Owe to Infection and Not at AM to r Changes In the Weather. . Have you ever noticed in church immediately after a prayer or a sermon Is finished some one starts a cough and then a whole battery of coughs explode? The modern physt dan will tell yon by way of explana tton that microbe emanations from the breath, of the cougbers find their way into the respiratory tract of others who thereupon cough too. Not a Ion in church, but in theaters and, other indoor places where people gather Id large numbers, is this coughing habit noticeable. In an article dealing with this sob ject published in the Independent it Is explained that colds are slight infer tlous fevers which spread particular!; among the population of cities and wblcb are due to contagion and not at all to changes In the weather. Tbesr may . predispose by lowering resistive vitality and by disturbing the drcula tion in mucous membranes, but it 1 the presence of an Infectious germ that gives rise to the symptoms of the cold When one of these bothersome affections gets into a household usual ly more than one person suffers from it, and It spreads in offices and schools and the like. It is much more frequently caoght in a crowd than anywhere else. The people who have a succession of colds during . the winter time and those who have to work where many people come and go during the day are particularly susceptible to them. It Is not to some sudden change in the iweather that the physician looks for the origin of a cold, but to some rather intimate contact with other sufferers from similar affection. FAT AND FLOWERS. Extracting Their Dainty Perfumes From Odorous Blossoms. By a process known as enfleurage. which Is the exposure of beef fat to fresh flowers In closed boxes until it is thoroughly permeated and charged with their odors, the perfumes of various flowers are obtained which could not otherwise be so effectually preserved apart from the fresh petals. Those flowers are violet, jasmine, tuberose, rose, orange flower and camlc (cinnamon flowers). From those sis there are fifty or more combinations made for the simulation pf tbo odor? of otber flowers. Sweet pea is made with orange flower and jasmine, bya clnth Is counterfeited by jasmine and tuberose and the illy of the valley by violet and tuberose. The resources of the perfumer are. however, by no means confined to tbo pomades, as the scented fats are tern: ed. He uses many essential oils, th principal of which are sandalwood bergamot. lemon, rosemary, nerol i (made from bitter orange flowers), patchouli and attar of roses. The latter, which is not now used so much as formerly, is very difficult to obtain in a pure state, because Its great cost tempts to dishonest adulteration. Very often geranium oil is substituted for it Musk is another important Ingredient, entering, as it does, into almost all perfumes except those that actually are Imitations of flower odors or, as styled by perfumers, "natural" as, for Instance, the heliotrope, tuberose, white rose and violet New York Press. Th Musio Soothed Him. In bis book "My Life's Pilgrimage" Thomas Catling gives an Interesting glimpse of Gladstone in the Midlothian campaign of 1880: 1 happened to meet an organist from Edinburgh, who told me that in the throes of that electoral fight Mr. Gladstone soothed and steadied himself with music. Having arranged a time for the organ practice, he was provided with a key. by means of which he could enter the church quite privately. Silently and alone he would sit in one of the pews with his forehead resting on his hands while the organist played over a number of familiar and impressive hymn tunes. The listener neither looked op nor spoke until the hour compelled him to move. Then, with a "Thank yon," be passed out to throw himself again Into the bustling political contest.

Musky Doos of CabroOoe. All along the coast at every Eskimo encampment and about the cabins of the llveyeres are numbers of husky dogs. In winter these animals pull the sledges and form the sole means of travel or communication from settlement to settlement During the summer they are not fed by their owners, but are left to seek then- sustenance as best they can: hence the hungry brutes range the land near the coast and add to the problems of Labrador, as they permit no creature to live that they can pull down.
