m&&3& smn wsj"sen W$p?W T '(SrmY: SEPTEMHSJR THM PITTSBTTRGr' ' DISPATCH, SUFDAT, 6, 189L 12 V- -- L Jilt feto ifS The custom of haying marriages m the morning. Instead of the afternoon and even ing, Is being revived In Pittsburg. Many years ago, wt are told, It was the proper thing to be married In the forenoon, as It Is now In England, where the Episcopal Church Is known as the Church of England. The Catholic Church has always held to the old custom of forenoon marriages, but other denominations have married theirlnembers at all times In the day, preferably In the evening. Now it is noticeable that morning marriages aie preferred, one or two In Pitts burg and vicinity last week having taken place before IS o'clock, noon. Outside the Catholic Church there are very few denomi nations wherein tho time of day in which the marriage takes place affects its legality, but the young people seem to see a little spice of "romance in the forenoon wedding that cannot be given to it even by wax candles and flowers at night. So ne may expect to hear that most of the weddings during the coming winter will take place by thelightof the morning sun before luncheon, instead of in tho afternoon or evening. Independently of the sentimental aspect of a morning marriage, it must be admitted that It Is more convenient than when it takes place toward midnight. It fives an opportunity for tke friends of the couple to offer congratulations, and for a wedding breakfast, tint In old times -n as always such a pleasant pirt of the exercises at a wed ding. There is no hurrying away to take a midnight train, w ith all the stuffy discom forts of a sleeping car. On the contrary, the young oouple take a day train, enjoy the scenery along the route, and do not feci as If they were being hustled away into a stiange life wlht all the miseries of a stage coach Journey in the last century. There is much to be saldhn favr of forenoon weddings. TVhere Summer and "Winter Meet. The great Exposition is opsn. "While not strictly a fashionable event, in the ordi nary acceptation of the term, it is still fashionable to many thousands who look forward to it all the year as the great de light that Is to usher in the winter's gaieties. The Exposition is the connecting link be tween the winter and summer pleasures.and a very bright link it is. It is the fashiona ble thing to go to the Exposition, but one is not required to put on full dros to attend. It is one of those places wV.eie you go for pleasure and not to make n impression upon your neighbors. Is that not the best sort of fashion, after all? Children in Sock and Buskin. There is a great deal of interest felt in the Fairies' Carnival, to bo held In Exposi tion Park "Wednesday. Thursday and Friday evenings. So many children are to take part that it v, ill be an event of great social Interest in the city. The little ones from hundreds of families will be In the cast. This talent is sufficient to Insure a very large attendance. The little actors and actresses seem to enjoy the rehearsals very much, and tho performance will be one of the most earnest ever seen in Pittsburg. j I-CCETTE XiORSrZ. AUTUMN'S GAY GATHEB1H0.

Colonel Greenland has finished his reports of the costs of the encampments this year, ard they have been placed in the hands of tho Adjutant General. Cattaix SHAiraoir, of the "Washington In fantry, has announced that the drills in his eompany will be resumed at once and that all members will be expected to be as prompt in attendance as usual. The mem bcrs of tho Washington Infantry are enthus iastic over their camp experiences, and It Is stated that organization Is in better condi tion than ever. To-mobkow being a legal holiday. Captain Davis, of Company C, ElghteentluRegiment, has decided to take his company to McKees port for target practice. Owing to the fact that the regimental range is' still not in con dition to shoot over, Captain Davis has obtained the privilege of shoeting over the rango of Company I, at McKeesport. Almost the entire company Is expected to be pres ent in unuorm. CoxsiDERAELa comment is being indulged in on account of the delay in paying off the members of the Second Brigade for the re cent tour of duty at Arnold station. Both the First and Third Brigades were paid in full within ten days after the camps had broken, but nlready double that time has passed bv and no signs of tho money for the Second Brigade are to bo seen. The delay Is said to be entirely due to errors in the rolls of one ot the regiments of the brigade, and if such is the case some scheme should be devised to make that organization alono wait for Its money and not include the other six or seven organizations in the brigade. The local teams of the Fourteenth Eighteenth regiments and Battery B are ex pected In from Mt. Gretna to-night. While the Second Brigade team as a whole did splendid work at the contests, the teams of the local organizations have not much to be proud of. While it is scarcely to be ex pected that the city organizations could compete with the country boys in the way of shooting, still the showing this year is very much below the standard. Both the Fourteenth and Eighteenth Regiments have done very little woik on the ranges this season, as their poor totals In tho recent matches would indicate. It is expected that the Eighteenth Regi ment will be able to do some work In rifle practice this week on the new range, which is almost completed at Coleman station on the Allegheny Valley Railroad, about seven miles from the city. Owing to a refusal of a number of company commanders to devote the State allowances for rifle practice to its proper uses, it has been impossible to make any progress In target work this season so far, and several pieces ot propeity which had besn secured for range purposos have gone by default owing to the regiment not having the money,to place the target in po sition. The new range at Coleman station is nanay enoucrn to tne oity to prevent kick ing from that source, and while the advant ages and comforts to the shooters will bo as good as the meager funds will allow, con siderable hustling will have to be indulged in by some of the companies in order to get in out of the cold.

Hnnr Williams' Jack's Creoles. WORLD'S Museum-Thiateb.... "Black Hawks." Davis' MDSEuM-TnEATEB Curiosities, etc Harris' Theater "The Inside Track," The above are the theatrical attractions for the coming week. The English Comedy Company at the Grand Opera Houso was not remarkably successful in xthe revival of sterling plays. The plain fact of the matter Is that the company is not heavy enough for the task. Nearly all the playois In It, with the notable exception of MrMcClannln, have a great deal to learn before they will be able to do anything like justice to such characters as Goldsmith has designed in "Sho Stoops to Conquer." This holds truo of young Mr. Clarke and Miss Ford, for whose os-ocial benefit these re vivals eto presumably undertaken. Mr. Clarke's cleverness is very little beyond that of an amateur, and Miss Ford hardly show ed more than a faint promise of better things. What both need is a deal more schooling in subordinate parts. Both have food opportunities In this direction, and liss Ford has the advantage of the experi ence and'wisdom of her excellent father, like whom 'twere well that there were more managers In this country. The Exposition and rather warm weather contributed to knook tho bottom out of the atrical business the past weok, but the week before us ought to exhibit the first real movement of playgoers toward the Ipcal theaters. The attractions at tho principal theaters are decidedly good In thoir several lines. Hallen and Hart's "Later On" promises to show improve ment already from tho management of tho gifted Mr. Brady, and Hftn lon's "Fantasma" Is known so well that It needs no eomraendation. TheDuquesno jilone has a downright nov elty; a new star m a new drama, namely, Joseph Haworth in "St. Marc." There is one thing that can be counted upon assured ly with Mr. Hawoith. that he will do his best and that it will be essentially artistic. This Pittsburg has learned already, although last year his efforts were unhappily In the wrong direction. It is very hard to estab lish a new star, but Mr. Haworth has already made a deep impression wherever he has played, and it Is in tho nature of preferring art to commend him most favorably to all who love actingin its highest and best sense. A comparatively new face in Mr. Ha worth's company is Miss Katharyn Kid der's. She has attraoted considerable at tention in England, and her work this sea son has already called forth a wonderful amount of approval She is described as being above tho medium height, shapely and graceful, clustering golden hair, soulful large eyes of gray, and a mouth, that must be scon, to be appreciated properly for Its charm. Her powers include the tragic of Anderson, and the lightness and sweetness of Ellen Terry, it is said. The picture Is certainly tempting and I give it subject to revision, if need he, after Monday's per formance. .1 .- Ocoasiosallt protests are made against the advance notices of plays. It is charged that the actual facts do not bear out the promises. Then The Dispatch is blamed, for assisting in the deception. This is not fair. The advance notices are sometimes entirely true, sometimes not. When the play or the players are new the word of tho manager is all one has to go by. He may tell the tr'utfi; and the criticism on Tuesday will agree with the advance notice; or he may romance with opposite results. The advance notices of tho theaters as they appear in these columns, aro as far as possible, correct statements of tho attrac tions merits. Of course they aro strongly biased In favor of the, managers and players. That must be expected. It is desirable that it should also be understood by the public. Hence these words, and the farther remark that to the best of tho writer's ability the, truth and nothing but tho truth will always be found In tho criticisms upon the plays, and aB far as possible in the advance notices. Hepburn Johns. Bijou Theater. The first' of the important farce comedy engagements booked for Pittsburg this year will occur at the Bijou this weok. Hallon & Hart, well-known and liked performers will renew their acquaintance with local theater goers In a revised addition of "Later On." "Later On," like all of its class, hss an ac commodating stomach and can assimilate almost anything that meets with popular approval. Tho pungent ingredionts of the past, which have served to make Its fare palatable to amusement seekers have been freshened, we are told, for the current season, with mucli that Is new and pleasing. The songs, dances, melodies and romping incidents have been literally changed, it is said, and with an effect of entertainment which has boen a big surprise to even stale theater-goers. Last year the performance in Pittsburg found nemarkablo favor for a piece of its clnss, and established tho princi pals as bright and resourceful entertainers. John MoWado, the baritone singer, w.10 did so much to make "Comrades" popular, continues with the company as does also the Misses Ada Somers aad Mollie Fuller. The other members of tho company are new. Clara Tbropp, tho Jhno rra( Alrf in "A PArlor Match" lust tpai lm taken the place of Annie Lewis. Sadie Mc Donald, a comely j oung girl, who dances wim xniu uuuiiy, wu assist j.uiss xnropp in making tjie hoydenish features snappy. Tho other members of the company are the Misse; Florence Bell, Georgle Motzger, Car rie "Wallace Howaid, Grace "Wallace, Lola Bigger, Hattie Haven, Lilian Thrush and the Messrs. Will H. Sloan, George O'Donald, Thomas Condon, Harry Hilton, Rioharu Read, Charles Kettler and W. S.Francis. Mr. McWado will sing a new song inplace of "Comrades," called "My Cli.im Tom." This song Is a composition of Mr. Hart's, and has.been heartily received In Chicago this week. Among the concerted novelties an nounced is a quaint dance, called "The Sweet Robin Gavotte," iu which the flsrures aro directed by singing birds. OFhcse birds are clever imitations of the actual flesh and blood and sing sweetly and true. Another tuneful conceit is n serenade with auto-harp embellishment. A colleen danco and rowing song and dance are two other numbers which Involve the chorus lo ways that are said to bo especially pietty and captivating. The girls, who form the chorus, by the way, ale spoken of as unusually good able to sing by right of natural voice and cultivation This looks like a novelty, sure enough, and if Monday night confirms tho statement the Bijou is sqie to focus an un common share of public interest next week. To find a chorus in farce comedy with an even fair shaieof youth and looks on Us side, us well as a voico intended to he nr. hibitediu public, .will form in event that smacks of the miraculous and is bound to meet with an ovation. This is Teallr tho beginning of the dramatic ear at the Bijou, and, unless all the signs fail and there Is no logic in events, It will bo a scene of unusnal pleasure during the presence of Hallen and Hart and their jolly associates in the new "Later On." The Duquesne Theater. Joseph Ha worth's engagement nt the Du quesne Theater next week promises to be highly successful. He has surrounded him self with an exceptionally strong Bompany.
