The Hruns nnd Nina Vaudeville com pany, at the Gaiety dm lug the balance of tho week, gave very amusing en tertainments yesterdny afternoon and evening. The star feature of the per formance Is undoubtedly the spirit cabinet net in which Pilnce Caldeano nnd his lady assistant reproduce the well known manifestations by which t-plrltuallsts lime been enabled to my--htify the public for neuily a half 11 century. Ualdeano, performs 11 tilek which the Haldwins pretended to explain, with skill that Is nstonishing and if ho chose to attiibute the manifestations to spirits ho doubtless would bo nble to find many believers about the coun try. His net with the committee ot investigation selected fiom the audi ence was extremely funny as well as Ipuzzllng. Nina, the electric picture (lancer, gac a novel tuin by the aid of electilclons and vocalists nnd the other vaudeville features were good. Tho Herrmanns at tho Lyceum. The Hcimuniis. Adelnlde and Leon, v, ill appear nt the Lyceum Monday, matinee nnd night. In their famous en tertainment of magic, music and dances. The piesent sensnn many new and novel feats of legerdermnln hmo been ndded to the performance. This Is In keeping with the entertainments which have home tho name of Her mann, which have alwuyn pi oven a noselty, nnd hae not followed the bpnten paths for lack of originality and linentlve creation. Probably the most Inteiestlng ot the many new things to bo seen will be that of the beautiful Adelaide Hermann peifoimlng the feats, and miiacles of the Oilent. She will appear In an mil entitled "A Night In Japan," dressed In a magnifi cent Japanese gown and will pie.sent a number of new and staitllng bits of legerdermnln. notably "The Hoin of Plenty," Featheis without RinK" "The Oiiginal Hlndo Flower Trick." "The Enchanted ltno Hushes." ii.-.ijs materialized from thin nlr, which nn given as souveniis to the audience nnd many others. Madnme Hermann will also appear In a number of new and ntrlklng dances Her dnnee creations have a world wide reputation nnd hmo never been equnlled by any of tho num erous dancers that grace the contem poraneous stage. "Ups and Downs of Life." It Is n pleasure that we can announce that those sterling artists. Oliver By ron and his Jolly wife.

British Officer Saves His Life by Keeping1 Perfectly Still. From the Scottish American Dinner was Just finished and ocvei.tl English ofllcers were sitting around the table. Tho conversation had not been animated and there came a lull, m the night was too hot for small talk. The major of the leglment, a clean-cut man of flft-flv(, turned toward his next neighbor nt the tabic, a young subal tern, who was leaning buck in his chnlr w Ith his hands clasped behind his head, staling through the cigar smoke at tho celling. The major was eloly looking the man ovci. fiom his handsome face down, when, with sudden alertness and In n quiet, steady voice, he said: "Don't move, please, Mr. Carruthers, I want to tiy an experiment with jou. Don't move a muscle." "All right, major," leplbd the Hthaltetn, without even turning his ees. "hadn't the least Idea of moving, assure you! What's the game?" By this time all the othert. wuie listening in a lnzlly expectant way. "Do you think," continued the major and his voice trembled just 11 little "that jou can keep nbsolutel. still foi, say, two minutes to hiv your lllo?" "Aro you Joking?" "On the con trary, move a muscle and you are a dead man. Can ou htand the strain?" The subaltern baiely whispered, "Yes," and his face paled slightly "Burke," said the major, uddiost'lng an ofllcer across the table, "pour some of that milk Into a saucer and set It on tho Hour heie Just at the back of me. Gent ly, man' Quiet! ' Not n word was spoken ns the oiricer quietly filled the suuicr, walked with It carefully aroun-1 the table and set it down where tho major had Indicated on the floor. Like a marble ntutuo sat the young subal tern In his white linen clothis, whllo a cobra dl capello, which hud been crawling up the leg of his trousers, slowly lalscd Its head, then turned, de scended to the floor and glided towaid the milk. Suddenly tho Mlence wns broken by th teport of the major's revolver, and the bnake lay dead on tho tluoi. "Thank you, mnjor," nald tho eubaltein, us the two men shook hands waunly: "you have saved my llfo" "You'ip welcome, my boy," replied the senior, 'but you did your shaie."

London traded both ways, her nurcllnsea nnd antes being larger tlinn for n long time. Realizing snles by certain largo Interests, although causing a renctory movement early In the day, seemed to have been well taken considering their volume. The evidence of scale buying and conspic uous purchases by two powerful In terests resulted In un almost buoyant tone before noon. There was covering of shorts who have expected a reac tion which failed to appear to anv ex tent thus far because of the large ab sorption of securities by the public. There was pronounced strength In the grnnccry. The movement In these nnd other standard dividend paying stocks had a healthful Influence elsewhere, where bull lenders were successful In stimu lating the movement. Federal steel continued Its advance, the common ris ing 3 points on the favorable trndo situation and the belief that powerful Interests were supporting the siock. Total snles were 893,100 shares.
