SAM YOUNGS CONTINUOUS SHOW NEXT WEEK,

A Long List of Flue V*adtvlU» Performer* Who Will Take Part-An UnuwaUjr Strong Dramatic Company—A Oiwttfhow .• at Popular Price*.

Sam M. Young, who is on© of theolev erest and most energetio managers in the ooontry, will, next Monday,*open at Naylor's a continuous ooinedy show that ought to take Immensely with the tbea ter goers of Terre Haute. With him is associated Walter S. Baldwin, and the combination is one that is desiined to make a winning in the dramatio bust ness.

The continuous show is a novelty here. It has been successful wherever introduced and Terre Haute will certainly not be an exception to the rule. The doors will open at one o'clook Monday, and at two o'clock sharp the performance will begin, and continue without waits or stops until eleven o'clock. The prices of admission will be 10. 20 and 30 cents, and no reserved seats will be sold in advance of each day's performance. Those who go first will get the best seats, following out the old rule of "first come first served."

The dramatio company engaged is the highest priced and best that ever gave a performance here or elsewhere, at popu lar prices. It includes William Murdock who has bad an extended experience as as leading man with l&rue of the best companie» ou the road Mi'is Mate Stevens, leading lady of "Across the Potomac," and such well known local favorites as Geo. W. Mahare, John W. Barry, Harry B. Castle, Frank Buoman, Rose Adelo, and others. The plays to be produced ate "Passion's Slave," "A Legal Wrong," "Mismated," "The Plunger," etc., and they will be gi\*en in a maimer never before equalled here by a popular priced company.

In the vaudeville portion of the performance, the show will be particularly strong. Among the people engaged are Irwin T. Bush, who was associated with the first continuous performance ever given, at Lothrop's, in Boston, seven 3*ears ago, and whose specialty was one of the most successful features of "Zeb Dixon, Bowers and Dixon, whose acrobatic act, the "Three Rubes," made a great hit at the Imperial Music Hall, New York, and at Hopkins', Chicago the Sisters Mendoza, who do a thrilling aerial act Moreland and Thompson, refiued sketch artists, who have made a hit wherever they appeared. Mr. Moreland is a song writer of some prominence, and is the author of the popular ballad, "That Little Old Red Shawl The Buomans, Frank and Rose, who are already popular with Terre Haute audier.cee The Victorellis. whoseshadowgraphs, or "funny little pictures on the wall," are especially pleasing to the little ones Bonnie Lottie, the character change artist, who has made a wonderhit, wherever she has appeared. She is but thirteen years old, but her contortion skirt dancing has made a bit wherever she has appeared Ed. Eagleton, the baritone singer and monologuist and others. The performance will be clean, neat and meritorious and should meet with an enthusiastic reception by Terre Haute amusement lovers. The performance from start to finish will of the highest grade of merit and there i* nothing in it to ofiend the most fastidious.

NOTES.

8ibyl Johnstone, Mabel Amber and Eleanor Barry are impersonating "Trilby."

Two Boston men have evolved a comic opera called Queen Lil, to be brought out during the summer season at the Castle Square In that city. Its leading character is a Yankee politician at the royal court of the Sandwich Islands.

Du Maurier had already prepared a dramatization of "Trilby" when Mr. Palmer secured the American rights from him. In the author's version the hypnotic Influence is subordinated to the love of "Trilby" and little "Billie."

Victorien Sardon, when staging his plays, has a sharp idea for details. At a recent rehearsal in Parts he compelled an aotor to leave the stage and delayed the action of the play until a frayed button on his coat *as replaced by a new one.

If the matrimonial stampede among theatrical folk is not soon checked there will be no more unmarried Shakesperiah actors in a short time. The union of Robert Taber and Julia Marlowe set the example which has since been followed by Alexander Salvina, Creeton Clarke and Otis Skinner, bo each took to wife his leading lady. Tragedy on the boards and conjugal felicity in domestic life will soon be synonymous. Leading Shakesperian roles apparently ofler fine incentives to matrimony to their young and handsome exponents of both sexes.

The oldest American actor, Charles W. Oouldoek, who Is an American by adop tion, having been born Irt London, has Just celebrated hi* eightieth birthday and retired from the stage. His professional career covers a period of sixty years, during which be played with Mac ready, Charles Keao, Charlotte Cushmau and other eminent dramatic lights but bis greatest personal triumph was "Dunstan Kirke" in Has*! Rirke, which be played 2,000 times. He Is known to theater-goers everywhere, and will long be pleasantly remembered.

In Paris the parted hair is just going out altogether.

A Flam Cushion.

For piazza tue at a seaside oottage, where sunshine and sea breeze abound, nothing can exceed the appropriate loveliness of the "sea dragon pillow." It is made np iu the usual size—18 inches by 18 inches square. The covering is of sea green satin, that reproduces in effect the very sheen of the water in sunlight The design upon the face of the cushion is a sea dragon drawn in exquisite curves and sweeps, and wrought in silver and gold Japanese cord couched down, with white and yellow silk thread. The embroidery sparkles and glints from the green background, A five inch double raffle of satin, overset with a four inch fall of fish net spangled in silver and gold, completes the tout ensemble. This design will recommend itself in oheaper stuffs, green crepon or denim, or a fish net and little fishes afloat in water hues may be readily drawn upon the material and worked in, in Japanese gold and silver cord, and couched into place*

Any bodice is now put in style by the addition of a fluted front of black chiffon enriohed by bands and lines of jet These fronts are oleverly made to fit olose to the figure under the arms and along the front half of the armhola When adjusted, they appear to be apart of the bodice worn. A high solid jet collar and a belt over which the front droops complete the accessory.

The woman with a handsome throat will do well to adopt the fashion of having the top of her gown finished, not with a high collar, but with a scrolled design of gold or jet. A really classic effect is given thus to any gown, and nothing so emphasizes the "beauty of the

Wellesley Girls.

Wellesley girls show no diminution in their fondfcess for aquatic sports. There has just been shipped from the works of a Connecticut boatbuilder a fine eight oared barge, intended for the use of the class of '97. The barge is described as 45 feet long, 3 feet beam, and is constructed throughout of Spanish cedar, lap streaked, with copper fastenings. The fittings are made up of patent roller slides, swivel rowlocks and adjustable foot braces* It sounds like a racing boat, but

uas not been built for that

purpose, as the students are not permitted to race on the lake near the college, but it is safe to say there will be some pleasant and not too slow spins taken in the new barge.

Remains to Be Seen.

The women students in the university at Ann Arbor, Mich., are getting themselves into hot water by wearing their bicycle bloomers in the house. Of course the issue was to be expected. Everybody knew it must come, for girls who once enjoy the freedom of this debatable costume are bound to try it under other conditions than skimming over the ground on a bike. It remains to be seen if Ann Arbor is equal to this strain upon its ethical taste, or whether the professors' wives, who champion the innovators, are to como out second best in this merry fight, which may extend eastward. —Boston Herald.

She Braved Criticism.

Lady Harberton's suggestion that female servants are the women of all others to wear knickerbockers, as such costume facilitates movement, seems to have been adopted in at least ono case over the water. A very new woman iu such reform dress recently rode through the streets of London accompanied by a nurse, also in knickerbockers, and a small infant in long clothes at the moment, but whose future attire, whatever the sex, may be set down as sure to be knickerbockers, under such mothering and nursing.

•'-i The Bo* Plait, The box plait has positively attained to the dignity of the keynote of the season. Not only is almost every blouse and skirt arranged in this fashion, but the latest sleeves are set into the shoulder seam in box plaits. Sometimes the latter, instead of starting from the shoulders, are carried up to the neck—-a style which can hardly be considered becoming, but which may commend itself to those who, like the Athenians of old, are ever athirst for novelty.—New York Recorder.

Women Not Called While Smith college has both men and women as members of the faculty, it does not confer the well earned dignity of the professorial title upon the latter, even when they fill positions as heads of departments in every respect as reeponsi ble and onerous as those held by the other sex. There were 748 students enrolled last year with a teaching force of only 80, nearly two-thirds of whom are women, but not professors.

Mary H. Sherman has been elected a member not only of the school committee, bnt of the board of health in Brook-

Mass.

Our Hoy* un».

The good womofi of the present are beginning to take some account of the dark aide of society, Heretofore it was not thought a fit subject for them to know abouts much less to think and talk about But, womanlike, they are strongly inclined to lay the blame on those of their own sex. However, they will have to learn to judge who in moat at fault.

Mothers have always been urged to look well to their daughters, and if possible keep them in ignorance of what is going on in the world, just as if a girl possessed of good sense and a reasonable amount of womanly curiosity will not find out more or less of it and still appear to be ignorant

Were mothers to give a little more at* tent-ion to their boys arid show more ra-! speot for the intelligence and good sense of their girls, the results would be much better.

Possibly the coming woman will he able to grapple more successfully with this matter than the woman of the present. ^--Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.

A Woman Sexton.

Many women in New York have mastered the art of embalming and are employed as undertakers' assistants in much the same way as a doctor calls on the services of a nurse. There are several women undertakers who sell coffins, provide shrouds and attend to other details of their gloomy calling. These last are not necessarily embahners and are in most instances the widows of undertakers, carrying on the business which their husbands established. They assume charge of a dead body and prepare it for burial, but invariably call on some friendly man undertaker to conduct the funeral and ostensibly appear in charge. Brooklyn boasts a woman who is not only an undertaker, but the sexton of a church as well, successfully discharging all the duties that pertain to both call ings, except the personal conduot of a public funeral.—New York Tribune.

f/ Progressive Maori Women* The newest of "new women" are to be found at Hawes Bay, New Zealand, where a parliament of Maori women has just been sitting. The parliament passed resolutions to have nothing further to do with the native lands court, to cease selling lands and to have no further renting or surveying of lands. The chairwoman, in bringing the meeting to a close, said: "We find, after many years, men's endeavors to carry out our interests have failed, and therefore we women have formed a parliament or committee of our own, and we are going to do wh$£ we can. Our lands are slipping away from us into the hands of the government, and therefore we must protect ourselves."

HH The Women of Baltimore. The women of Baltimore have formed a good government club, with 70 members. The purposes announced are to look after the economical and efficient management of city affairs, to promote cleanliness, health and beauty and to establish cooking schools for the training of young women. This is cutting out a good deal of work for any club, and excellent work, too, and would furnish the most salutary employment for people of leisure, and who find that time hangs heavily on their hands. We don't see anything in these objects that should detract from feminine grace or render women less competent to fulfill their part in the world.—Boston Transcript

Bravery Appreciated.

Miss Fannie Nesbitt, night operator at the Union Pacific station in North Topeka, has been presented with a gold medal by hear fellow operators on the road for the heroism she displayed at Bonner Springs last fall, when a robber attempted to raid her office. Miss Nesbitt fought the robber off With a revolver and saved express packages containing $1,200 in cash.

Well Named.

The "Six of One and Half a Dozen of the Other" club is reported to be the latest addition to the society organisations in Gardiner, Me, It is a ladies' whist dab, and the name is very apiate, inasmuch as six of its memaxe maidens and aix are matrons.

Woman's Influence.

i^Men are not apt to indulge in rowdyism in the presenoe of women whom they respeot, and there was some force in the argument for woman suffrage made by a member of one of the Canadian legislatures a few years, ago. An opponent suggested the horrible possibility that if women had the parliamentary vote some women might be elected to the provincial legislature Another member retorted that this might prove an advantage, since if there were ladies present the honorable gentlemen, would probably cease to amuse themselves by throwing rubber overshoes at one another's heads.

The recent pulling of beards in the Nebraska senate is another illustration in point No doubt there is plenty of human nature in women, but it looks as if there were a good deal in men too.—• Woman's Journal.

Decided Against the Woman. In Florence, Or., at the municipal election in March, an entire woman's ticket -was elected.^ As soon as the resultj was known a question of the constitu tionality of the election came up, and it was decided that the women could not hold office except by courtesy. The matter was left to the old city council, which has decided against the women. The council will appoint men in their places. The terms of the old officers have expired, and those elected having failed to qualify, the town is without a government. This is an interference not only with the right of women to serve, but primarily with the right of men to elect whom they choose to serve them. A South Carolina judge long ago decided that if there was no law expressedly forbidding a woman to hold an office she could do so.—Woman.
