MARCH. Up through the river valley, with rough and trampling feet, I hear the young March coming, asinging loud and Bweet; The rains that start the grasses, he brings them in his hand, He brings the noontime glory that wakes the frozen land. The robin and the bluebird are nestled in his breast, The violet and pasque flower spring up where he inds rest; His winds that blow so roughly set all the rivers free. And laughing, singing gayly, they dance toward the sea. Sometimes he looks behind him, and then the snow comes back, They flutter in his pathway and whiten every track; But when he breathes upon them, then lo! they are no more For spring comes close behind him, up from the warm Gulf shore.

The patron saint of Ireland, good old St. Patrick, was what made the beautiful party given last evening by Mrs. Galen Lamb and Mrs. Jeannette Moorman at their pretty home in East Main street, one of the most elaborate affairs ever given in this city. In a way it is hard to describe the decorations and do them Justice for they were indeed very beautiful and attractive The green waB used copiously throughout the rooms. Handsome cut glass vases and bowls filled with green carnations were placed at various intervals about the rooms. Irish flags were also in evidence.

Read it: "I, John Barhorst, Justice of the Peace of McLean Township, Ft. Loramie, Ohio, do certify tbatiafter treatment by threedoctors without result, 1 have been cured Jf a verpr bad case of Rheumatism by iusing two bottles of RIIEUMAl It i now'two years since I used; the remedy, Hind I am still as well a&ever. Previous to using RHEUMA I walTai cripple, walking with crutches, an I feel it my duty to let other sufferer from Rheumatism know what it will do. The result seems almost miraculous to me. I have advised RHEUMA to at least a dozen persons, and each one speaks as highly of it as I. I will answer any one suffering from the disease if a two-cent stamp is enclosed." May 31, 1912. You can secure a bottle of RHEUMA for only 50 cents at Leo H. Fihe's and he says if not as advertised, money back. It's just as good for Gout. Arthritis, Lumbago and Sciatica. ' '

The bride wore a danty gown of white crepe de chine, trimmed with pearls, and her bouquet was of white roses and lilies of the valley. There were no attendants. The floral setting for the wedding was very attractive. Palms and ferns formed the background, and In wall pockets were frequent American Beauty roses. In the dining room there was a springlike effect with numerous daffodils, arranged as if in a garden. The ceremony was followed by congratulations and a social hour.

quartet composed of Mrs. Charles Ingleman. Mrs. Marvel, Mrs. Fred Bartel and Mrs. Allen! Miss Alice Knollenberg played the accompaniments. The numbers rendered by the quartet were: "A Song of Seasons." by Hawley. "De Coppah Moon," by Shelley. "Rock-a-by" by Neiblinger. Spring Song" by Hawley. Mrs. Edgar Hiatt read a very interesting paper on "State Laws Governing Women and Children." Mrs. Hiatt's paper was one of the best of its kind ever presented in this city. The paper was well written and was intensely Interesting. Mrs. Hiatt told of woman's rights in the state, in the family and in society. Taking each separately she gave a most complete account of her subject. She also spoke for and against the nine hour law for women. She gave the manufacturers view and also the working girl's view and how and why it could in some cases benefit and in others hinder. The housing bill passed yesterday by the legislature was also incorporated in the paper. She spoke of the conditions in the tenement districts in the larger cities and its effect on the moral life of the women of the country. No doubt this bill is a most excellent one and will work a benefit to these people. After Mrs. Hiatt's paper. Miss Cotterill of Indianapolis, who is visiting here with Mrs. Webster Parry, and who . has charge of a woman's school at Indianapolis supported by the state, gave a most interesting talk. Miss Cotterill is a most enthusiastic woman and her animation yesterday when discussing her work

became almost a contagion. The guests were thoroughly interested in her work. She said that some time ago about two hundred girls had been placed in good homos. After the program Washington pie and chocolate was served. The net regular meeting will be in a fortnight. Accommodating. The most accommodating people in the world are tailors. You'll have to hand It to them. They're always willing to help you out all they can. We are reminded of this undoubted truth by the experience of a friend of ours last Wednesday. He got measured for a new suit. When the ceremony was over he smiled and said in his winning way: "I'll be frank with you. I can't pay for this suit juntil the latter part of next month. Will that make any difference?"' "Not the slightest difference. You're an old customer, and you shouldn't mention such things." "That's mighty nice of yon. When will the suit be ready?" "The latter part of next month." Chicago News. "Numny Dumny." In his "Highways and Byways In Devon and Cornwall" Arthur II. Norway tells of a fragment of antiquity that still "lingers in the neighborhood of Redruth, where the country people when they think they see a ghost say. 'Numny dumny!'" and he adds, "I leave the riddle to be solved by any one who is curious enough to undertake a useful piece of practice in unraveling the corruption of language." The phrase Is probably a corruption of "In nomine Domini." the Latin for "In the name of the Lord," a phrase so familiar in the devotion of the middle ages. Excha nge. FT

The Theaters

"THE LITTLEST REBEL." By Esther Griffin White. "The Littlest Rebel" is a good play. From the standpoint of theatrics alone. But it has additional value. It takes a historical theme, hackneyed in fiction and on the stage, and gives it fresh, if not entirely original treatment. In other words, it takes the period of the civil war done literally to death by novelists and playwright and presents it from an unusual standpoint. The standpoint of the Southerner. And so tactfully that the auditor of northern sympathies finds himself getting at the point of view- of his former compatriots. This play is paralleled in this phase by Mary Johnston's recent no el of the Rebellion, "Cease Firing." which is one of the greatest documents against war ever written. In "The Littlest Rebel," is found that same exposition of passionate, misguided, loyalty which made the Confederates such gallant soldiers, such bitter enemies and such splendid citizens of a reunited country as depicted in the pages of Miss Johnston's epiclike work of fiction. There are good lines in the play of many sorts but significant notably of the desperate position of the armies of the South when hemmed in and finally pushed to capitulation, one of which went to this effect "We are robbing the cradle and the grave we have left only old men and boys we are destroying the very essence of our civilization." Theatrically the play is somewhat melodramatic although, as has been said before here a time or two, life itself, if you care to stop long enough

to observe carefully, puts the rankest melodrama to the blush. On no stage would we tolerate the happenings of the day as recorded in any paper in the country. Therefore when we put a drama down as melodrama we may be paying

It the highest compliment in that the drama is at its most superlative when it most faithfully reflects life. Interest centres, naturally, in "The Littlest Rebel." taken, in the presentation een here, by little Miss Viola Savoy who displayed histrionic talents of a high order. Miss Savoy's seeming stape unsophistication which Is really theatric sophistication of the most pronounced gave freshness and charm to her interpretation of the role of a loyal little Southern girl, forced to live alone iu the overseer's cabin while her father, a rebel scout, performed his military duties after the death of her mother and the destruction of their home by fire through the depredation of a drunken northern soldier. Miss Savoy's acting was psychologically interesting as well as artistically alluring. The child is emotionally flexible and in last night's presentation shed actual tears. She played, in short, on an extended and varied emotional scale that thrilled her auditors and gave promise of distinguished achievement in the future. Mr. Marshall Farnum. as Captain Herbert Carey, the little girl's father, maintained the theatric balance in this role a thing not entirely easy to do since the role gives many opportunities for exaggeration and affords temptations for gallery plays and sustains the reputation of his family for clever histrionics. Judson Langill, as Colonel Morrisson, of the Northern army, whose duty it was to track down and take Carey, disputed stellar honors with Miss Savoy and Mr. Farnum, Mr. Ijangill doing a capital bit of acting showing discrimination and theatric restraint. Martin Resgon, as "Uncle Billy." a slave attached to the Carey household haled with each breath all night Ion.
