A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.

•^AMUSEMENTS,

The music loving public of this city have a rich treat in store for them when .•'The Fencing Master" opera company •will present that most tuneful work this evening at Naylor's Opera House. The prima donna of the company is that dainty bit of femninity, Miss Dorothy Morton, who is to-day considered among the very best of comic opera singers. The opera promises to be staged with .unusual splendor. Its most picturesque scenes consist in the marriHge of the

Adriatic and Venice by moonlight. In the latter scene gondolas form a romantic feature and a portion of the music is rendered by their oarsuien singing in the distance. Manager Whitney promises to give here the same production as that«een in New York City. He carries the original scenery, new costumes and properties, together with a chorus of "thirty voices and an augmented orches tra, under thedirection of Signor Toma*»i

PRIMROSE & WEST'S MINSTRELS.

Forty white and thirty black, seventy all told, and these three scpre and ten ©mbracingall the best talent in the realm of minstrelsy, makes a pretty big organ ization, and one of such proportions as requires brains and wealth to control with any degree of success, .and yet Primrose & West, the monarchs of •modern minstrelsy have fearlessly announced such a venture, and will appear here on next Tuesday evening, Feb. 5th It is a marvelous combination of min etrel ideas, embracing as it does a corpulent pay roll, besides an investment '.of capital such as only Primrose «& West have at command. A small fortune is alone represented in the costuming aud the sceSic effects are said to be even nqore gorgeous than some of the grandest spectacles employ. It is with a view to make public comparisons of the various stages of negro minstrelsy, from its first introduction as an entertainment to tue highest attainments up to date, and incidentally to still further increase their bank account that Primrose A

West offer to the generous public the biggest kind of a festival, which, by the way. includes all the good things of the past and present and some few ideas as to what the future will recognize in order to command agreeable consideration. The seat sale is now in progress at Buntin's.

GAIETY GIRL.

"A Gaiety Girl," the great sensation of London and New York, will have its first performance here at the opera bouse on Thursday eveniDg, February 6th. In spite of the fact that the piece is a tissue of character sketches, novel dances, farce comedy situations and farce comedy lines, it is said that not once in the performance is there a single step across the line which separates the artistic from the objectionable. The company to appear here is under the management of Augustin Daly. The piece ran for 100 nights in London. At the head of the organization is W. H. Rawlins, who has long been recognized as the foremost comedian in this class of work in London his hnmor is said to be most unctuous, and, although a man of large physique, be possesses the most remarkable physical agility. He plays the part of leading physician to the first families, who invite him to dinner, but neglect his bills. His purpose in the play is to marry his daughter Rose to some one with large pecuniary resources, and this he succeeds in doing most admirably through a most amusing series of incidents and accidents. Tht. daughter herself, Miss Ethel Sidney, plays a most important p»rt in the progress of events, as do Miss Margaret Fraser, a beautiful and accomplished dancer MIsh Winifred Dennis, Miss Marion Hood, Miss Nina Martino and a host of pretty girls in most picturesque costuming from the hands of Auguste et Gie, of London. The other male cbarcters are well sustained by Percy Marshall, from the Prince of Wales, and Messrs. Lang ley, Manning, Hesland, Hall and Fraser, from George Edwards' Gaiety Theater. London. The scenes of "A Gaiety Girl" represent spacious pleasure gronnds, with a view of Windsor Castle, and the Riviera, with its quaint fishing boat* an3 bathing houses. Many of the musi cal numbers are of the catchy order, and have already been taken up by the whistling .brigade in New York and other eastern^!ties. The seat sale open? on Monday morning at Buntin's. Prices 1,50, l, 75, 50 and 25 cents.

KI.KS'

KNTBRTArSMENT.

The annual entertainments given by the Elks of this city are always looked forward to^by theatergoers generally *with muoh anticipated ptensure. This year they£deeided to bring some well known attraction here and, after muoh careful deliberation, they selected the

Patti Bona Comedy company, which is beaded by wlneome.Gladye Wallis, who will be remembered aa being with W. H. Crane several seasons. She is a great favorite here and is the "real star" who has oome to take the place held by Anna Pixley and PatU Ros*, two charming women, whose recent taking away in the very prime of life caused real sorrow in many heart#—by Miggie Mitchell and by Lotta, who have retired upon well won laa»eUu Miss-Wallis comes an aspirant for favor in line which seems just now to offer more opportuni ties to a clever actress possessing the right qualities than does any other line of dramatic endeavor. The vehicle se fee ted for the introduction of Miss Wallis

Is a three act comedy by Blanche Mars den, and is what might be aptly termed a comedy of the elevated oiMer. It ta

full of mirthfulness and does not fail to please. Miss Wallis is supported by Joe Cawthorn, the well-known comedian, and the Patti sa comedy company. The engagement will doubtless prove to be a big success financially and artistically, as the Elks are hustlers, and every man, woman and child ih this oity will know the date of this performance. Seats will be placed on sale at Buntin's drug store on Monday morning February 11th, Prices, 25c, 50c, 7oc and $1.00

NOTES.

A new operatic combination is possible next season by Yernona Jarbeau and Ffcy Templeton.

Chauncey Olcott was recently obliged to cause the arrest of two young women in Newark, N. J., who persistently annoyed him at the theater.

Frank James, the ex-outlaw, has de: cided to star next season in a drama to be written for him. In the meantime he is acting as doorkeeper at a St. Louis theater.

N. C. Goodwin, who lately sauntered into a stage scene that was being played by Stuart Robson and was described by the Chicago newspapers as being druuk when making that exploit, is now reported to be irregular in his southwestern trip to such an extent that his company may disband.

Edward Jakobowski, the composer of "Erminie," "The Queen of Brilliants," '•The Devil's Deputy," and other light operas, was married recently to the daughter of a prominent Buffalo minister. He made the acquaintance of his wife two weeks ago, when she, being anxious to go on the stage, applied to him for employment as a chorus girl in an opera now under rehearsal.

Though he has achieved a soore of successes a first night of one of his plays throws Sardou into a panio. His latest drama, "Gismonda," was a complete triumph, but when it was first produced in P*ris the playwright did not have the courage to view it from the theater. On the contrary he hid himself away in a neighboring cafe to await the ring of the telephone which* was to atuiounce victory or defeat.^

Manager E. E. Rice has determined that hereafter no variety wor farce comedy actor shall be admitted free to the performances of any of his burlesques. He states that since "1492" started on its tour, all the original songs and jokes have been discounted-by people who were grauted courtesiesvduring the New York run of the burlesque and that the best things in "Little Christopher" have also been seized upon.

Kathryu Kidder, an actress who is prospering in a Sardou play, "Madame Sans Gene," at the Broadway, is something of a manager, too, as she is a partner with Augustus Pitou ih the venture. It is understood that several managers made rich offers to her for the Napoleonio comedy after she had purchased it for America, but she was determined to have a personal share in its triumph, if it should make one—and it has.

We are soon to have the latest style of extravaganza, the gorgeous prodaction from the New York Casino, "The Passing Snow." It is a Parisian idea burlesque in the dramatic successes of the year. It is one bright sparkle of epigram and humor. It is from the prolific pens of Sydney Rosenfeld and Capfr. Alfred Thompson, and the music is by Ludwig Englander. The production will be seen Here complete. Among the principal performers are Barney Fagan, Jessie Carlisle, Laura Blggar, Burt Haverly, John D^nahoe, Marie Daneste, the Sisters Byron, Will S. Rising, James Horan, The Borrl Family, Kate Harri son, Edna Thome, Terishoff, Lucy Pix ley, Gertrude Randolph, Adele St. John, Minnie Stella, Edna Lyle, Jeflrey Lawrence and Maurice G.ou|dv_sThetrejs|d80 a ballet and chorus.

Care of the Chafing Dish.

It should not be forgotten by those who own thcni ti.at chafing dishes need especial earo to keep them bright and attractive for the table. The pans should not be put in water when washed, but the water put in them, and the nickel surface carefr wiped and polished over with a piece of chamois. If particles of whatever has been cooked adhere to the sides, clean them off with grease and salt, then wash with clean, hot soapsuds, rinse and ,dry care fully

Briug this water to the boil, let it boll for some time, then lift the pan off the fire and do not touch Its contents till the water Js BBtfectly cold

WOMAN AND HOME.

TWO ENGLISH WOMEN WHO

Woman's work is certainly widening with the process of the suns. A now field has boen opened to lior by the step of two English women, who recently started a new syndicate in London, the Ladies' agonoy, of which Miss Staniforth and Miss Larpont arc the heads. The young women interested make It their business to rent houses and flats and to secure furnished rooms or lodgings for those in searoh of thorn.

Even the most caviling critio who resents the intrusion of women into those departments of labb* formerly delegated exclusively to men must hail with something akin to joy this advance. When women aro architects and agents of the houses men must live in as well as the makers of the home, surely a new era will

Miss Larpont remarked that the woman evidently considered that they Were not in earnest about their work, and that they had taken it up merely for amusement As far as their business methods are concerned, nothing could be more unjust. If competent heads and honest, earnest work go for anything, Miss Staniforth and Miss Larpent'ought to succeed.—London Cor. New York Herald.

Ornamenting the Home.

A New York Times representative has interviewed an artist on this subject and with the following result. He says: "The great fault in American houses is over ornamentation. Things beautiful in themselves are so crowded that the eye Is bewildered and can find no central point on which to rest. The decoration of a room .should culminate or center at some spot, and from that the lines should diverge according to artistic rules. We see force of this in cathedrals where the altar forms the grand climax of ornamentation and furnishing. Of oourse there are minor centers, as there Is always a secondary plot in every good play, but the eye should instinctively be guided to the main point of decoration. In an ordinary house this is the fireplace and mantel in each room, and special care should be taken that artistlo rules are not broken in the ornamentation of that most important part of the room. "An artist is familiar with many" correct forms of grouping, but these are not easy for an nmatour to uhdertsand,

be inaugurated. Kitchens will be larger and commodious, and then such delicious dinners will issue from them as will awaken the masculine mind to the advantage of having woman completely and truly in her sphere. Washday will lose its terrors when an experienced woman's mind shall have labored with the laundry problem, and then there will be no more rasped tempers and touchy norves.

Both Miss Staniforth and Miss Larpent put mankind under a debt of gratitude when they opened their agency in 88 Ebury street, London, S. W. Not only are they bent on placing all womankind who seek permanant residence in the right kind of housas, but they endeavor to supply suitable accommodations for travelers.

They do not, however, confine their endeavors to London. They have agents in Florence, Dresden, Berlin, Hamburg, Paris, Cannes and other parts of the Riviera.

We are,in the first place, house agents," said Miss Staniforth recently, "but minor departments have grown up around our main idea. We do shopping for our country clients and it is our intention to add a theater ticket bureau very soon. Our experience with landlords as well as with customers lias been all that could be wished. Every once in awhile, of course^ we have amusing experiences, but nothi jmpleasant. One day a delightful lady, a stranger, came and assured us th we could not possibly succeed, for those who had apartments to let would never have anything to do with us. 'I canio particularly to give y'ou this advice,' she added, in a patronizing way."

the

best rule to give for mantel decoration for the general public is that the centerpiece should form the highest point, the lines from' the top when drawn to the sides of the shelf forming the sides of ah isosbeles triangle. "An overloaded mantel," he continued, "is a sign of vulgarity, and the ornaments should be proportioned to the weighty not only aotual, but apparent, of the woodwork and setting. A heavy bronze on a mantel which is narrow and light In construction must givo a sense of uneasiness, though there may be no real danger of it falling. "Bronzes should always be placed in a strong light. In tbis they are the reverse of statuary, which should be in half shadow.

portrait bust should be so placed

that it has a front, top and side light. This may ordinarily be accomplished by potting It in a corner near a. window, the wall space back of it being darkened by drapery." "What is a simple rule for hanging pictures?" was asked. "That varies according to the height, sise and decoration of the room, but it is best where only one row of pictures is hung to have the central point in each on a level with the eye of the ordinary person. For instance, in a vignette portrait the central paint is the chin. You can make no mistake about the point in any picture, for the eyu Involuntarily tests up on it at tbe first glance."

1 Give t?s More Homemakers. It occurs to me that great and glorious work might be done teaching women that domestic life is a profession requiring a liberal education to make it comfortable, and most careful wit and discrimination to make It delicious. To keep bouse well Is mechanical, physical. It is.not so bard a thing to do. But to be a good homekeeper—ah, that is Spiritual and incorroptiblol Other things being equal, the

best work that women do is far from the madding crowd. The best work is not so prominent as it is important, not so brilliant as inspiring, not so showy as lovely and divine. Who can estimate the widespread lnlluonce of a well ordered household? To the growing mind it is a safeguard and a refuge. It l^whero real men are formed. To tired souls it is at once rapose and inspiration, aud to all it is the most activo source of good known to humanity. ^Domestic life as a profession is without a rival. The thinking world recognises the fact .that it is and ever must remain the best possible careor fora^oman. Why should any one ha've to say this? Why doesn't everybody know it? It means so much to the one who undertakes it, to the home itself and to the world at largo. The ideal occupation for a woman is one that permits the greatest possible freedom of body, that colls for moderate physical force, that unites variety and interest and is in no way exposed to extremes. What profession, save domestio life, fulfills these conditions? Not any. But there are some highly respectable "second bests," as medicine, journalism, etc.

And let here bono misunderstanding here. Countless women are doing better work, nobler work,outside than many who have had the greatness of "first best" thrust upon them. Shame upon the homekqepors that such a thing can be true! Theirs is always the great opportunity, and yet some sit at the gate of tlio world, like Bartimous, and all their words and deeds show that they aro blind. Perhaps the agitation and noiso over questions th it are not quostions will in the end prove a means of education and teach women something about themsolves. Let us hope so. Just this kind of a missionary is needed.—Louise Flske Bryspn, M. D.

Woman's Education.

All true reform must begin by educating women to a better sense of what is due to themselves, and through them to the world. We need a training that# will make woman realize that she is made for. a higher purpose, a nobler use, a grander destiny than fashionable littlenesses, elegant trifles and fascinating airs. Woman must be educated to become man's helpmeet, and not simply his help eat his companion and not a doll to be dressed or a thing to be kept from crying with a sugar plum.

I would force upon every young woman the thought of a serious life. I would train her to do well some one useful thing that insures her self support if necessary, and this exigency often occurs. Any woman of fair looks and ordinary sense can marry some sort of man. But is not a lifo of loneliness more honorable than a loveless marriage? All honor to the-woman who makes her own way in the world rather than livo a lie with a man for the sake of being kept.

And not until women become independent and self reliant will marriage become what it ought to be—a union on equal terms, a free surrender of the heart. A marriage for support, for position, is a humiliating stoop to the dust, a mockery that Blushes to the skies. Matrimony is looked upon nowadays as a mere matter of mdney or a society affair between two exquisite fools. Until a higher mission awaits the schoolgirl than that of being taken froni the schoolroom to the auction block and placed on exhibition in the marriage mart, where show enhances the valjxe of the w„are and draws a higher bidder, no better education than that which the demands of the finified fooleries of fashion require is possible.—Rev. Madison C. Peters. ''A*'"" -I:

Woman on the Jury.

But. so great gjood has been manifest whenever women have sat on juries tl^at it is much to be hoped there will be no wholesale exclusion of the sex from this duty when women are voters. In Wyoming, before an alien and antagonistic United States marshal refused to allow women's names to be drawn, they exercised the right of jurors and contributed to the speedy release of the territory from the regime of pistol and bowie knife. They not only performed their new duties without

losing any of the woihanly virtues and with dignity and decorum, but good results were immediately borne. Chief Justice Howe of the supreme court, under whose direction women were first drawn on juries, wrote in 1872: "After the grand jury had beon in session two days the dancehouse keepers and gamblers fled out of the state in dismay toesoape the indictment of Women grand jurors. In short," be adds, "I have never, in 85 years of constant experience in the courts of the country, seen a more faithful and resolutely honest grand and petit jury than these." And there is no doubt that the superior conditions thatexist in Wyoming are in great measure due to the sitting of women on juries in these early days.— Clara Bewick Colby.

Photo or Paper Holder.

This is a pretty little stand, which, according to the proportions of its reproduction, may serve either for the purpose of a newspaper, photo or letter rack. If the former, the supports should be of brass or bamboo for the latter, cane or stiff wire

covered with wadding and ribbon would suffice. The panel may be made of stiff millboard or cardboard, and if of any size a wire should be run round the edge to prevent bending. The cover may be of silk, satin or velvet, and the decorative embroidery in silk crewels, chenille or ribbon, the corner pieces being made of gold.

Kestlew Children.

The movements and habits of a young baby seem so strange to us because they ate so different from those made by adults and because they are so unconsciously performed. Joy Is expressed by muscular movements, by* wriggling of the-hands and toes or by convulsive beatings of the arms when it is small, by "jigging" when it is larger. These movements are expressive of joy because to any animal of highly developed muscular energy movement is absolutely essential and particularly pleasing, while stillness -is the reverse. It is muscular excitement, chiefly no doubt electrical, a heritage from anccstore who knew not what it was to be still,

that gives that restlessness to children and causes them to find so much pleasure in n\ere motion and muscular exertion of any kind. If children have to be still, it is torture to them—positive torture in some cases—and grownup people are unaware how much, or they would not thoughtfully iuflict it on young children. Muscular ache, the fidgets, growing 'pain In the limbs, are all the result of enforced inactivity in children. It is similar with athletes. Their muscular excitement is so strong that movement is pleasure, stillness means pain, and tlioy are noted for restlessness.—Nineteenth Century.

An Educational Scrapbook. One mother lias introduced a new occu patlon to her children. This is the construction of a scrapbook of noted people of

the

day. Each has a page on which a

newspaper picture is pasted at

the

top.

Beneath this photograph tlie child writes when the person was born, the briefest account of his or her life, up to date and -possibly the time of death. Among the fast growing list aro tho Rufesian royalties, the little king of Spain, the queen of

Holland, Dr. Holmes, Robert Louis Stevenson, ex-President Carnot. the emperor of Germany and his children, etc.

Another

mamma has varied this idea for her own family of bright little ones. She has.set them to work collecting for a scrapbook all the pictures they can iind of royalty. Tho result is very interesting. There aro, of course, those from Russia, the cunning pictures of the German princes, the youthful rulers of Spain and Holland and several among the English family.

Children's Nurses.

"It is an indisputable fact," said a New York physician recently, "that children contract many diseases from nursegirls whose homes, habits and pedigretfare such that they are absolutely unfitted to mingle with children of any dge or condition. It might not be a bad idea if the Society For the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, instead of wasting a good deal of its strength and substance in certain directions that makes it extremely unpopular, would use its endeavors

get laws passed

requiring nursegirls who apply for places to take care of children to have a certificate from a physician showing that they are fit to take charge of them. The blindness of many persons to tho welfare cf their littlo ones in this particular might furnish the subject for many a homily, and the agitation of the matter certainly ought to bring about salutary results."

Hints on Cleaning.

The question is often asked what to do with soiled ivory, and many elaborate di rcctions have been put in print from time to time, but a woman who dared has discovered recently that one of the scrubbing sand soaps may be used with impunity, It does not yellow the ivory, nor does it scratch it. It should be rubbed on a fine nailbrush and the ivory scrubbed as if it were china. Brass, copper and their alloys should be cleaned with polishing paste in preference to silver powder. Oxidized ornaments need only washing and hard rubbing with flannel or chamois. White metal is most useful, in that it requires little or no care. Silver powder is, of course, the best possible cleanser for silver. Venetian iron work should be oiled to keep it from dusting.* Kerosene may be used with safety.

A Woman Perfected.

A little common sense and more repose, less about the ballot and less about clothes. Spell woman with a small "w" and don't make a bugaboo of her.. Let her do her work according to her taste and abilities, quietly and without any beating of drums. Let her go in for fame if she will, but not for notoriety. So few seem to appreciate the difference. Give us more women like Mrs. Lowell and fewer like Mrs. Let us encourage true women and frown down the "shrieking sisterhood." Let us have more of "earth's noblest thing—a woman perfected," and fewer who want to "wear the breeches."—Jeannette L. Gilder.

For Ribbons and Laces.

By using the following preparation for cleaning kid gloves, ribbons and laces you oan keep the above mentioned articles in the "junk of perfection" with little trouble: 2 quarts of deodorized benzine add S drams of sulphurio ether, 3 drams of chloroform and four drams of alcohol. Pour the fluid in a bowl and wash the articles as if in water, rinsing in a fresh supply.

Cut glass, washed in warm soapsuds, rinsed in hot but not boiling water and stood in a pan of dry sawdust till dry, then teushed with a soft brush and rubbed vnth a piece of chamois, will have every bit of its brilliant beauty dazzlingly brought out.

Stale bread, if cut in slices, then laid together again, folded in a dampened napkin, slipped Into a paper bag and laid in a hot oven for 15 minutes, will come out like fresh bread.

Zinc bathtubs and all copper and tin kitchen utensils can be kept in pristine brightness by occasionally washing them with a hot solution of salt and vinegar.
