A Y. M,U CIRCUS Will Be Given by the Boys Last of This Week.

Rehear nal 3 for the Y. M. C. A. circub which is to be held Friday and Saturday of this week are showing the ability of the members of the association along this line. The circus promises to be one of the best amateur "stunts' ever put on by the Y. M. C. A. The circus is to be held in the gymnasium of the building. The grand entry pageant starts each evening at 8 o'clock and It Is expected that every available seat will have been reserved long before the show opens each evening. The bills which have been posted throughout Richmond and neighboring towns describe the show as a rousing, romping, roaring, realistic reproduction of the most fiercely contested struggle of modern times, the battle of Vaniller and Lemernade. See Jumbo, the biggest elephant ever captured in the jungles of Beton Heights and Sambo, the educated elephant raised on

melons. The circus is instructive, in-1

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. "People have a funny idea of professional people," said Odiva. "They think they keep late hours and lead the gay life," she continued, with an amused little smile and a shrug and an uplift of the eyebrow. "But as for me I am always up by eight or nine when I am feeling good. And as for late hours I coujdn't keep them if I wanted to. "The public does not consider that health is one of the assets of a professional performer in the theatres. "There is a class, of course, that doesn't consider it but they soon wear out. "Hard work is hard work and tires one out. When I'm through I'm tired and ready for bed." Odiva is an interesting personality.

child should be taught to swim. It is necessary, useful and enjoyable. "It gives grace of carriage and de-

i velops the figure along artistic lines

and is a clean, healthful sport. "In Samoa all swim the Samoans are as much at home in the water as on the land and this is as it should be with everyone. "Yes, I have noticed." she went on in reply to a question, "that swimming is being taught much more generally than at the time we came to this country a few years ago. Swimming pools in public schools are being instituted in cities as far apart as New Orleans and Brooklyn. "In Brooklyn not so long since I opened a pool which had been put into a school with an exhibition, the pool and baths being very complete and the sanitary rules governing their op

eration of the most rigid. No one was

permitted to enter the pool without a preliminary of thorough shower-bath and rubbing down with soap and towels. "In New Orleans we once had a very pleasant experience. A boy, who was a skillful swimmer and very popular with his school fellows was to be presented by me with a cup which he had won in our swimming contest, the presentation to take place on a certain Saturday matinee. "We had a tremendous audience the theatre held about three thousand people and it was packed. "After the boy had been given the cup I was very much surprised to have him give me a little box in which was a charming gold monogramed pin with 'Odiva' engraved on the reverse side. "This boy came from a school in which the children were taught to swim and won the contest by a skillful performance. "We see it everywhere this inter

est in swimming both as a sport and as a physical exercise. The public is beginning to recognize its necessity as a preventive to drowning.

"Great disasters, like the sinking of whil 1 think thv sbould have the full the Titanic, impress this upon the pub-1 suffrage, I still do not think their preslic mind although, of course, in thls!nt tactics are going to get it for case the knowledge of how to swim ' them " did not save because of the peculiar j Very few persons have any idea of conditions. But nevertheless it brings j the enormous expense Odiva and her the necessity of knowing how to swim managers are at in the transportation

to the mind and I predict that on this account alone the teaching of this art will be given a tremendous impetus. "Y. M. C. As. and the Young Women's Christian Associations are doing much toward making the prevalence of swimming, or the knowledge of it, more general, since very few of the buildings of either organization are er

ected without swimming pools. And we ' in advance.

find that the majority of those taking

part In our contests come from the Y. M. C. A. or have learned to swim through the existence of a pool in some local building of the Association. "Swimming is a great lung developer," went on Odiva. "Nothing is better for those having weak lungs, as deep breathing necessarily follows and expansion of the lungs must attend the expulsion and intaking of air. "It is also very good for the skin and hair. "I have heard it said that being in the water so much would be bad for the hair but this is not the case else I would long ago have lost all I have. "Moisture is good for both hair and skin. . "Of course the chemical properties of the water have to be considered. Where there is much alkali in the water as in Winnipeg it is bad. "Here you have very good water fine. It is clear and far purer than we often find. No doubt it is the formation here which I am told is peculiar the water having much lime and coming from clayey and gravely sources. "Very different from that in Ft. Wayne which is the worst, in our experience, in the United States. It has

a large percentage of iron, which the people there have been led to believe is very healthy but which seems to us very bad since the water is thick and muddy. It is the only water in which I have ever been unable to see." "Do I believe in woman's suffrage? Assuredly. "I have given very little attention to the status of the question in this country although when we were in California last year at the time the agitation for woman's suffrage was at its height, I was interested in seeing the intense eagerness of the women and the intelligence manifested all over the state. "There is no reason why women should not have equal civic rights with men," continued Odiva. "We all come from the same source and why should man be granting privileges to woman? We have as much right to them as they have. "I do not especially approve, however, of the window smashing "tactics

of the glass tank. "One contract ending in San Antonio and another beginning in Dayton." said the manager, "caused an enormous bill for carrying between the two points it cost $745.35 to bring the tank from San Antonio to Dayton." Three mechanics travel with the

swimmer and her manager, one going

"No matter how pure the water," said Odiva, "it is always filtered. People will say that it is not necessary as the water is pure in their particular town or citj but we pay no attention to that. We go on and filter just the same. And we always get a lot of impurities out of the alleged purest water." The filter is made up of a medium several inches thick and by the time the water reaches the tank it is in a comparatively pure state. Odiva is an accomplished needlewoman. "I make all my own underclothes," she stated. "Every stitch by hand. But I am very fond of embroidering it is fascinating and serves to put in the time and put it in to some purpose. I am industrious I do not like to waste time." Odiva then unlocked her trunk and showed the writer a number of handsome embroidered cushion-covers, table-covers and scarfs, done in colors with gorgeous effect. "I started out to make a cushion cover for each state but .it was too much," she said. Many of these are embroidered with the state flower and are charming. Odiva is on the Keith circuit and was secured here by special arrangement. From Richmond they go straight to New York where they have been seen frequently, at one time appearing for fifty-nine consecutive weeks.

Wanted Silk Hats Abolished.

Some years ago an attempt was made by certain members of the municipal council of Courteuii, France, ta make the wearing of a top hat Illegal, the grounds set forth for the measure being that the sight of a silk hat is a humiliation to those who cannot afford to wear one, that it is both unbeautiful and unnecessary as an article of attire and also, chiefly, because it is worn mostly by aristocrats who live by the sweat of the poor and militated against equality among citizens of the republic. A fine of 5 francs was the proposed penalty for wearing the condemned headgear, but the "topper" found friends at court, and the measure was rejected.
