i 12 THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH, SUNDAY, AUGUST 9. 1891. THE - J .J7 " 4 W v Tfce fad of the day unions: -women la dress reform. Tne'dea is not a new one. Prom the days of bloomerlsm to those of Mrs. Jenness-Miller there has been tho same -wild desire on the part of the members of the softer sex to escape the tyranny of skirts. Ko matter how the matter may be discussed, it !s apparent that if -women -were allowed to wear troui-ers, or some modification of them, they would be more comfortable, and more fit to cope with men in the occupations of the world. There have been all sorts of apologies for this garment -worn by women. The divided klrt seems to be the favorite now, and if it Is not generally -worn it is only because the average woman is more afraid of the re marks of her sisters than desirous of com fortable clothing. It is certain, however, that there is more anriety shown now about the dress of women than has been the case for several years. It is not difficult to trace the reason of it. Xot only are women doing more in busi ness thanevcr before, but they are riding bicycles with a persistence that was never expected of them in the days, not long ago, when men ran along perched above a 52-inch wheel. The introduction of safeties, and their spcedv application to the ue of women made a better dress than the ordinary skirts imperatively necessary. Although the divided skirt has not been generally adopted in the laslnonable parts of Pittsburg and Allegbenv, it is conceded that it must come into use dmong the fair bicyclists. Let the ordinary skirt be disposed ever so grace fullv, it will flip-flap against the wheel when the nder puts on a "spurt." The divided skirt would adapt it6elf to the re quirement of thw ort of locomotion, and 15 would soon be apparent that lady bicyclists Miould nor indulge in their favorite sport in am other costume. It is sate to predict that before the summer of 1KC is very old most of the girls who ride tho silent steed about the East End thoroughfares on the beautiful asphaltum roadways, will wear the regulation bicvcling costume, consisting of a neat divided skirt for its most im portant item. SIOEE OUT OP DOOE THXATEIOAI8. Open air theatricals have taken the fancy of society people. The successful presenta tion of "As 1 on Like It" two eeks ago started it In Pittsburg. Xow a repetition of thit performance has been arranged for Lake-rood, where it is to be given on tho lawn of the Kent House, next Friday. About the same cast will do the play as we saw at the Kenmawr, including our own brilliant and beautiful young Allegheny actress, Miss Mario Bnrress. Mr. Jenksis promised the f-uppoit of all the people along Chautauqua lake, together with nianv in Jamestown, X. 1, Builalo, and other places within easy reach of Eakrwood. It is expected that several large theater parti's will go from Pittsburg, there benfg excuiioiis on two railroads running up to the lake. Besides tho Lakewood perform ance it is proposed to give one in the open ir at the Park Place Hotel, Sewickley, which will also be under the management of Mr. George C. Jenks. We have had so much rain In the past that it is fair to expect a !ry period now, in which outdoor entertain ments will flourish. rEOPEE TIME FOE THE OETTH'O. This is the time of year when many people are coining back from the seashore and mountains, tired and somewhat disgusted because they took their holiday so early in the season. It has been laining almost in cessantly for three months, and the (seashore lias not been the pleasantest place in the world. The wise man who had only enough spare cash to spend the regulation ten days or two weeks out of town waited till he was euio the weather would settle. He is Just Ftartlcg ou his holiday uow.and he will get out of it all there is in it. He wiH not have to go bathing in the rain not he. August and September are the months in which to spend a vacation, and he will not have to lcproach himself that he went too early when he returns. He will have a healthv brown on his cheek and vigor in his body to enable him to fight his way through the winter, and he will he able to say to him self that he has pursued the sensible course. Ko w is the time lor your holiday. LrCETTX LOB2TK. PESTrVITIES OF G&Y ATJGTJST. Outings in Groves and on the Itlver Are Socially Fopalar.

The evening was spent in dancing, which was kept up until the "wee snia" hours in the morning, when the party took thelrhomeward march. All went well until nearly home, when a heaw shower of rain came up, which caused the gentlemen to raise their umbrellas and protect their ladies. Tho whole party was slightly dampened, but were perfectly satis fled to'undergo the dampening process, so tuoroughlv satisfied were tbey with the niv Hide'."

In a very eummary, though decidedly effective, man ner last week by getting married several days before her departure for Atlantic City.

In no city did the Alle gheny county contingent enjoy itself more than in Detroit. Said a comrade, returned: "Detroit did herselr proud and everybody is happy. The city is beautiful and tho pro fuse decorations made it more so. The G. A. E. badge arranged with electrio lightB on City Hall was magnificent, and surpassed anything of tho kind ever produced. The parade, while noi as large as that in Boston la-t year, was more compact. Tho smooth, wide streets afforded ample ground for both the troops and the spectators. The old sol diers never marched better. Pennsylvania as usual received an ovation all along the line. All tho men were in uniform and the division presented a soldierly appearance. The battalion composed of Posts 151 and 157, under command orcomrade W.J.Patterson, marched with the precision of regulars, and was loudly applauded everywhere on the march." The Dispatch last week gave fall reports from the encampment o little need he said of the business transacted. The election of Captain John Palmer, of the Department of New York, as Commander in Chief came in the nature of a surprise. Henry M. Duffiold, of Michigan, was elected Senior Vice Com mander by acclamation. T. S. Clarkson, of Nebraska, won the contest for Junior Vice Commander. S. B. Payne, of Florida, was elected Chaplain, and Surgeon General Ben jamin T. Stevenson, of Connecticut, was re elected. Washington, D. C, was chosen as the plaoe for holding the encampment in Sons of Veterans, Attention I Sons of Veterans, the time Is fast approach ing when you will take charge of the noble work now being done by the Grand Army.

Therefore, you should mpress upon them on every available oc casion your earnestness and strength. Grand Army Day, Tuesday, August 18, will be a notable occasion. If every member of the Sons of Veterans in Allegheny county would turn out at Eock Point on that day the old soldiers would be astonished and delighted at the large num bers. Every member of tho order who possbly can, should turn out on that day and show to the old soldiers what a strong and ready band of workers is rising to help perpetuate the glorious deeds of the gallant heroes of '61, to assist them in their old ace and to stand ready to rush to their support, during the march of the remnant of the noble Union armies on to final victory, should they be needed. The camps are making preparations, and a large turnout is hoped for. Lieutenant Colonel Alf G.

The First Soldiers of the War.

Manager Henderson Makes a Great Hit In the Revival of "Mikado" Grand Open ing of the Bijou Season General News From the Theatrical World. The tenacity that Gilbert and Sullivan's "Mikado" has upon the public was best evidenced by tho immensity of the audience that assembled at the Duquesne Theater last night. The house was crowded upstairsartd down, and by 8 o'clock it was impossible to obtain a seat. It was the initial representa tion of the "Mikado, or tho Maid of Titipu," by the Garrow Opera Company, and to say that a signal success was scored is hardly putting it strong enough. "Mikado" com panies have come and gone, but rarely has there been one that gave so clever a produc tion both musically and in a histrionic sense. Miss Laura Clement, who is naturally a woman of beauty, never looked prettier than as Yum Yum. More than that the lady has a remarkably sweet, clear an,d sympa thetic voice that is cultured and every musi eal number that was her own received a hearty encore. Mr. John Brand not only looked but acted Pooh Boh with all the dig nity and lordly graciousness that so well befits the high and mighty man of many offices. It has olten been said of Miss Augusta Roche that no better Kotitha ever existed. With last night as an evidence, it is safe to go a step further and say for Miss Roche that of all the Katisha's who have visited this city her Impersonation and con ception is by far the superior. Particularly can this bo said of her singing, Mr. Henry Hallam met all the requirements of Karikipoo in a most acceptable manner. He was in good voice, acted well and met with much favor from the audience. If there is a laborious role in the opera of tho "Mikado" it is certainly that of Ko-Ko. Mr. Charles H. Drew, who assumed the character last night as he has assnmed it many hundreds of times before, Injected enough comedy into the festive Ko-Ko to keep the audience roar ing with lahghter from nls first appearance until the final tail of the curtain. His local verses introduced into the singing of "We have got 'em on the list" were timely and apropos and were demanded over and over, until the gentleman bad to plead sheer exhaustion as an excuse for desisting. The Mikado was Intelligently handled by Mr. Jesse Jenkins and gave the gentleman the best opportunity he has had during the present season of comlo opera. He had the singing down to a. nicety, and his singing brought man v rounds of annlause. It was expected that Miss Lilian Swain would make a prettv PUti Sing, but the little lady made a decided hit and brought several encores, mamng an possime 01 me oniy op portunity given to this character in the opera. The Pith Tushot Mr. William Under wood, the Kceban of Mr. Robert Stanley, Miss Josephine Stanton as Peep-Bo did the little they had to do well. The opera was well costumed, the choruses were given with vigor and dash, the posing and tableaux wero all good. Tho "Mikado" will be given Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs day evenings and Saturday matinee. So many requests have been made for the re production of the "Bohemian Girl" that it will bo given Friday and Saturday evenings of this week. The season at the Bijou has been opened and everything points toward success. In fact Bijou and success are synonomous in Pittsburg. The immense crowds that waited tho parting of the curtains last night found plenty to attract their attention in the won derful changes that have been made since that great playhouse closed Its doors to the public last spring. For weeks carpenters and decorators have been at work. Every thing has been brightened up and retouched. There is a wonderful profusion of olectrio lights. One would hardly know the lobby. itnasgiown zu Dnuiants. not oniy mere, but all through the playhouse every de partment has been renovated and re paired. There is also a large amount of new scenery and the old has all been retouched. As for the list of attractions, they have all been published. Bobby Gay lor, in "Sport McAllister" last night, proved at least that the first attraction is a success. His ready Irish wit will prove a drawing card for the entire week. Mr. Gulick has also been busy at his desk picking up the threads, and now, everything is in shape. One of the most recent bookings 13 that of McKee Rankin's great work, ''Abraham Lincoln," about which such a furore has been crea-tod. The play will be staged in magnificent style. Elmer Gradin, who takes tho part of Abraham Lincoln, is said to be a natural living picture of the martyred President. He is tall, lank and bonv, and his face Is a counterpart of that of Lin coln. The Grand Opera House will open the season Monday, August 31, with the brilliant young comedian, Mr. Milford Clarke, in the following English comedies: "The Runaway Match," "The Babes in the Woods," which title has since been used for a musical bur lesque, "Married Life," as well as Goldsmith's comedy of "She StooDS to Conquer," and the sterling Engligh comedy of "Paul Pry. or I Hope IDon't Intrude." The Fall of Pompeii still continues to do a good business. The special features that are being introduced have greatly added to its patronage, and the crowds increase with every perlormance. It will be givon this week on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. The Salambos, a vaudeville company of the highest order, will appear at the Academy this week. Everything about the company is new, and a big week's business is promised, especially as this is Manager Williams' opening week. "The Limited Mail" win follow Bobby Gaylor at the Bijou. It is from tho pen of Elmer E; Vance, and has been spoken of most highly. Lillian SwAnr, thePitti Sing of the Gar row Opera Company, has jumped into de cided lavor with the patrons of the Duquesne Theater. pjAMEa Rilat, who will be seen here this month, has been entertaining the Grand Army veterans the past week in Detroit. Hakbt Davis' museum will open its regu lar season ou August 21 with the Lilliputian Opera Company in "Cinderella." Maxaqeb HEifDEitsoir, of the Duquesne Theater, is the very first to make a success of summer opera in Pittsburg. Mark Twaik's laughable sketch, "Tom Sawyer," will be the opening attraotlon at Harris' Theater next Monday. The World's Museum begins It regular season to-morrow with a full list of good at tractions. Rosa Coqhxait will open In "Dorothy's Dilemma" on August 20, at the New Park Theater.
