^PHILOSOPHER BAB WELCOMES NEW YEAR.

THE

What HM the Departing Year Done for

V*t

—Tender Recollections of Loved One* "Who Have Crossed Eternity's Portals— Foriulog Xoble KuMlutloDl. iCopyright, lfcW.] We are waiting quite patiently. And II of us are conscious of the necessity of /silence—it is exactly as if some one in the house were dead. We are waiting quietly for a death and a birth. The |01d Year is on its last legs and the new one is over-anxious to bow himself in •nd take possession. The Old Year, ••Wrinkled, worn out, weary as he is, is 'fdear to us, while the new oue is a y-stranger. We sit and think of all that has come to us as we walked hand in band with Ninety-Four, and we wouder what JJinety-Five will bring us. As the re brightens, and as I look in it, I can ee sorrow, sickness and death that 'Ninety-Four gave and I can see loving ikindness and t^houghtfulness that came •even when the trouble was at Its height

Whatdld Ninety- Four bring to you? I canseetbe passing away of one to whom life had grown dear, and God in His goodness made that so easy that it was •only like going from one sleep 10 another. "And his children will rise up And call him blessed." I can see how good death is. How it magnifies every •Irtue and blots out every fault. Then, Ninety-Four brought death to another, sudden, awful, and yet when he said, '•There shall be no more years for yoa, you w4io are young and to whom life means«o«mob," be was yet kind enough to cause «o suBering except to those who were left.

ACAVXESA AUD SORROW.

Look in tbe fire •there and see bow much of illness Ninety-Four has brought you. To you, to aae and to our neighbor, and yet we learned something. We learned to know our friends, distinguish between the fair-weather ones and those who were close when the skies were darkest and dreariest. And we learned how loving some might b?, some from hom we had never expected it, and we appreciated many times the tenderness and goodness that came from those who were closest to us. But Ninety Four brought some pleasures. There were many loving friends and gracious deeds. If illness had come hand in hand with him to you, be also surprised you by introducing to your heart virtues that you had never dreamed existed. It seemed as if in those days people were more than good, and thirewas always somebody who thought of you and your dark days, and came, bringing a rose, a book, or sometimes just a gracious pres ence to cheer you up. What a deal that Is! That ability to come into a sick room and make everything brighter and merrier. To be able to chatter along about the events of the day until the invalid almost seems to have been among the pleasures herself. I know a woman like that. I call her Miss Brightheart, for it seems as if she thought out all the pleasant things, all the bright things, and then stored them up in her heart so that she might have them to give out where they were most needed. She wan in a sick room the other day, and her approaoh was heralded by

THE ODOR OF VIOLETS.

These were laid, wheo she got in the room, on the pillow where their beauty could be seen and their perfnt«,e enjoyed. Then she began to toll, not bow badly the invalid looked, not of the Ills of the world, and not of the many sorrows, but instead of the new books she bad read, of the teas she had been to indeed, of all the pleasures she had had.

She said: "Togo with the violets, I have brought you a book that is in har mony with them. It is written by a woman who comes, as we do, from where the sun is warmer, and it always seems to me as if, when she painted her ladies, she did it with the touch of a gentlewoman. And yet, they always had a heart. The book has for Its pretty title that gracious nam® which wo give to an unmarried woman nowadays, 'A Bachelor Maid.' And Mrs. Burton Harrison, who, to my way of thinking, is one of the most delightful writers of to-day, is the author. Smell your violets and read your book, and you will be surprised, my dear, to find out how oloeely they •reunited. One giving out the perfume of the flower, the other of a charming felrlhood. And where have I been? To one tea wbere I felt sorry for the poor little debutante, who, gowned in white •ilk and holding three or four of ber two hundred bouquets, looked like a lamb led to the slaughter. Everybody else was dressed so much, and by so much, I mean, had on so many different colors, that the room looked like a gor geous tulip bed, for nobody was too old or too young not to wear some bright ahsde in the bonnet, a gay cellar, while as for the froafes, if »hey weren't rig* and stireiy tbe velvet gown* war* many in color, but all flaring out after the "fashion of those quaint old silver bells that used to announce the serving of dinner.

IN KKAL 1.1VK.

'•The t»a wan itself exactly what the dear old Autocrat of the Breakfast Table said they all were. 'Gobble, gabble and giu* That night I went to see the fa noas play, 'The Masqueraders.' And.

dear, in tbe famous scene where two men match cards for the poesessien of a woman, I do believe my heart stood still. People talk about its being unreal. I

don't know whether it is, or not, and I don't care but it is a marveloualy interesting play, well aoted and well worth be lug seen. Men in real life do all sorts of things are up to all sorts of wickedness, and I do not see why as soon as something a little out of oommon is pio tured on the stage that tbecritlcasbould get up on their hind legs and exclaim: 'This never happened in real life.' How do tbey know? They are only living one life, and there are a million others, and into any one of these may come something quite as startling as that which is shown on the stage. Nothing ts so strange as life. I grant that if this play had been done by poor actors, that which was intense mijght 'have been made ridiculous but as it was done by the best stock company iu this country, it passed before my eyes like a picture of somebody's life. Possibly my neighbors*, for in every life thepe exists the possibility of great events but the peo pie to whom they come haven't the fault finding, quarrelsome uature of My Lord, the Critio but they are the people who enjoy to the extreme, and sutler to the extreme, and who make life what it is, a series of events, and not just one uninteiesting tiresome pleture. To make me laugh, Jack took me to see 'Too Much Johnson,' which charatlng title suggests, when you see the play, Too Much Fun, if there can be such« thing. Tbe man who wrote It played the leading part, which, by«» the-bye, was not Johnsou, and he had managed to achieve that quiet, languid manner and method of speaking that makes funny things seem ten times funnier and life one long laugh,

FOROETTING TROUBLE.

"I had been a bit blue that day, but as the play proceeded I forgot there was such a thing as trouble in the world and simply laughed. It was good to hear all the different laughs the strong one of tbe great, big man the funny little giggle of the small girl tbe deep-toned one of the man with a rough voice, and then tbe pure, clear, merry laughter of the woman whom I am sure sings well. There is a great reason for the existence of 'Too Much Johnsen.' That is, at the very beginning the looker-on throws aside the pack of worry and woe that is so heavy and just enjoys. That is a great thing. Aud anjbody, author, play-writer or actor, that brings it about, has done mora in the way of good to the world at large than all the sermons that were ever preached. But there, have gobbled your tea, I have gabbled about myself, and now I'll git."

And with that Miss Brightbeart went away, leavlDg behind her a memory as full of sweetness as the leaves are thick in Vallambrosa.

DISMAL, VIEW OF LIFE.

I saw my loving friend in the bright fire, and, as if to point a moral, I saw tbe woman who was her opposite—she who found life all gloom and who grieved unless she could give her opinion of it to everybody else aud make them suffer as she does. As you watch the baby laugb, she reminds you that- the winter with its warmth is likely to bring pneumonia or diphtheria to your darling as you pat tbe fox terrier on the bead, she reminds you of tbe pet dogs that have gone mad and, as you speak of the Christmas gift the man who loves you brought you, she insinuates that after all we know very little about men, and mos: of them are liars and deceivers. To cheer you up, she has brought you "The Devilish Twins." Indeed, although, she has iranaged to make you so unhappy that at night you are forced to pray for ber— to pray that Ninty-Four may take her away into the bottom of tbe dark blue ses unless she reforms,

THE PASSING AWAY OF 1894. It is getting very near the time for poor old Ninety-four to go out for good. The bell-ringers are waiting for the clock to strike that they may ring in NinetyFive. He comes so cheerfully, a brighteyed, open-hearted, curly headed boy, and bands you a pure white slate, upon which you will write your life-story for the ytar. He tells you that whatever is written stands. It can't be blue pencilled, it can't be x'd, and no rubber will erase it. Frightened? Well, perhaps each of us is. Weioome the boy NinetyFive with a rlngirg of bells and the muging of sweet songs, if tbey will, but yoti and I and our neighbor, who have met so many years when they were young, let us greet him with a prayer, and one word. Yet there is a better prayer, and one that, If we say it, will, through all the year, give us a helper. Say it in your hea f, you who are my neighbor, and remember that I am saying it with you: "Lord,I believe, help thou my unbelief." Then, no matter what may oorne, no matter how great the sorrow, you will have faith, and with It you can do anything.

NOftLtt WISHES FOR 1895.

And you wish for your heart's deeire. Don't be afraid. Ask for anything. That ts what prayer means. What do you want? Great patience.

What do I want? Better health. What doe# my neighbor want? A little more love.

What do you want? The love of yoor child. What do 1 want? A stronger belief.

What does my neighbor want? The stiiliog of unkind wm-ds. What do you want? Control of your temper.

What do I want? The ability to see the best in everything. What doee my neighbor want? The giving of encouragement tY those who are likely to fall by the wayside.

But there, the bells are ringing. Ninety-Five has come, the white slate is in your hand. Try and write upon It the history 01 beautiful deeds of loving kindness. Ninety-five is very young. Because you greet him, do not for«et all that you have learned, learned perhaps

sorrowfuly, In Ninety-Four. But whoever you are, wherever you may be, there comes one message to you it is this:—God bless you all and give you your heart's desire in Eighteen NinetyFive.

And If 1s%ruthfully signed with the blackest of luk, and it oomes straight from the heart of her whom you know as

BAB.

AMUSEMENTS.

THE "BROOKLYN HANDICAP" ATNAYLOR'S TO-NIGHT.p

Paul Dresser In Hit New Play, "The ttreen Goods Man," the New Year'* Attraction— The •«Ulack tjrook"Thu^.s|j^E^en-

"The Brooklyn Handicap" will be the attraction at Naylor's to night, being presented by a capable company atjd with special ecenio eflects. The plot turns upon the life of an adventuress, who gains entrance into a banker's family, only to briugiton the verge of ruin. She is apparently successful, but her plaus are thwarted by the shrewdness of a nieoe of the banker's. The banker's son has taken |5,000 from his father's safe to meet a note, and this, too, Is restored, and "The Great Brooklyn Handicap" proves the means of restoration. The young man is without funds, and bis nervy cousin places all her money on "Dr. Rice," and from tbe winnings restores tbe sum taken. Tbe plot Is not an improbable one, aud is never spoiled in straining aftereffects.

The fourth act, "The Great Brooklyn Handicap," must be seen to be fully appreciated. The horses, tbe jockeys, the crowd in the grand stand, tbe excite ment of the race, the thrilling finish, are all so life like that they bailie description.

Added to tbe oompany is a great band of Alabama pickaninnies, who do the. buck and wing dancing.

NBW YKAR'S DAY ATTRACTION. "A Green Goods Man," that entertaining and laughter provoking farce with its keen satire on tbe green goods swindle, will appear at Naylor's New Year's Day, matinee and eyening This play gives a good representation of low life. The characters depicted are true to their surroundings, and are not caricatures as seen only too often on tbe stage. Robt. Vernon and Nellie Hawthorn, a oouple of clever travesty artists, are anung the many good people In tbe cast, which In*oludes also Barry Maxwell, John Parr, Ban Dillon, E. C. Jobson, and a real green goods steerer who will appear as himself in tbe play. Misses Hawthorne, Arnold, Dinsmore and Jennie Elbert are also of more tban passing note. "Layman," tbe man of a thousand fqpes is one of the novelties engaged by tbe European agent of tbe management the past summer in England. His act will be a revelation to American audiences. A special feature of tbe production are the musical numbers which are written specially for this play, and which have become popular in all the cities visited by this company. The seat sale is now progressing at Buntin's.

THE-BLACK CROOK.

Eugene Tompkins' magnificent ballet spectacle, "The Black Crook," will be presented here next Thursday. It is by Charles Barras, and was first produced in 1867 at Niblo's Garden, New York, by Jarret and Palmer. It marked an epoch in the spectacular drama and caaied a sensation. There had'never been before such atr exhibition of tights, and no maaager had bad tbe temerity to produce anything on the scale of grandeur and magnificenoe with whioh this play was mounted. There was much speculation as to whether it would succeed or not, and many shook their heads with grim forebodings, but it was a success and a grand one at that, for it ran for 475 consecutive performances.

The present revival took place in the Academy or Music, New York, In September of 1892, aud almost as much doubt was expressed over it by various managers as when it was originally produced, but it was a greater success than ever and ran there the entire season, after which it was taken to Chicago for eighteen week* to tbe largest business ever knowu in that city. It was then taken to tbe Boston Theater, Boston, wbers it ran for four months, that theater being crowded nightly from pit to dome. The performance, as it will take place here, may be briefly outlined as follows: The ballet, of oourse, will be the principal feature. There will be grand ballets. The first is called "The Postillion Ballet" the second "The Birth of the Rainbow," and the third "The Ballet of Popular Airs." .,

Tbe prinoipal dancers are Mite. Tornaghl from San Carlos, Naples, ftlle. Slacclonl and Signor Bianoifiori from La Scala, Milan. Among tbe prinoipal specialty artists will be Mardo the "Marvel" and the French dancers from the Casino, Paris, led by Mile. Sirene.

The costuming and scenery will be en a most magnificent scale. "Tbe Electric Terrace or Grand Staircase" is said to be a most brilliant soene, a striking effect being obtained with the 1,000 or more incandescent lamps that are used* Oth er scenes are "The Pandemonium," "Tbe Foot of tbe Harts Mountains'' and "Moonlight and Daylight' Tbe production enlists 200 people, over half of whom are in the ballet. The European sensation, "Tbe Athos Family" of acrobats have been added to this season's production and are a big attraction attraction everywhere.

The seat sale opens Monday morning at Buntin's, price fl.00, 75, 50 and 25 cents.
