"The Power Behind the Throne."
A romantic drama, "The Power llehlnd tbe
Tlnorie," adapted from Schiller's "Love anil In
tilgue" by Theodore Kremer, was presented at
the Lyceum last nlctit. Tlie audience was large
and received the drama with every evidence n(
favor. The Mar, Jllldied Holland, lecelved eii
tliuslastlu recalls ot the close of the third and
fourth acts. The latter concludes Hie pliy. but
the greater part of those piesent teiiialned in
their seats and applauded until the curtain was
raised and the Utile vvoniin who invested Hie
lole of Aria with such true icallsin wis levealed
bowing her nckiiuwlciUeiuents.
The story of the play Is as follows: Alia Is a
daughter of a miisle teacher and fliron Von
Hohenlohe falls in love wllh her. To be near
her lie tikes music lessons fiom lift filher. TI10
engagement is announced and the father of the
baron becomes furious, as Hie joung man's en
gagement to the niiche.s of Waldham had been
arranged for. Tlie baron ictuses to leave his
aw critical! and lejeits Ihe arrangements ot Ihe
mairlage lo the duchess, who Is a favorite and
rather tainted member nf the reigning prince's
rellnne of lourt followeis.
The father of Hie .vouug lovel threatens the
life of thu music leu her and his wife for allow
ing lliclr daughter lo become betrolhcd In Ihclr
son, and lo save her lather and mother Aria Is
compelled to wiltc a letter to Count von Ober
fels which Is shown to Hie baron, and fiom the
tinor of Ihe letter be is made to believe Aril
has been untrue to him and to fuither cairy out
Ihe scheme the duchess has insisted on tlie at
tendance of Alia at a ball given at her palace.
Ariti Is forced by circumstances to appear to be
a person of loose morals and the baron la so
chagrined that he announces the fact of his be
tiothal to the duchesH and leaves the palace.
Then coine-s the most dramatic scene of Hie play,
vvheie Aria, stung passed endurance, denounces
the cluchess for what she is and leaves.
The last ait shows Aria al her home suffering
all the totttnes of 11 pure maiden with her good
name gone. The baron conies and denounces her
actions tnvvaids lilm and prep.nes a deadly poison
by slipping some powders in a glass nf water.
He drinks some of it and anuses Ali.i nf having
poisoned him. She denies II and eh inks what is
left in Hie glass. He then tells her that she
is soon In die, and, believing herself free from
Ihe vow she made to sive her father and mother,
she tells him she has alvvavs been tiue to him and
lelales the clicmnslanies that led to the pait
she plaved.
The drug begins to take elicit and Ihe bodies
of the lovers are fennel hy the duchess when she
enters the room. Believing them dead, she xvitu
draws, but the nrdeily ot the eoiinl comes in and
informs the father of the baion that he was sent
to liny aisenie, nnrl, being suspicions he liouglit
instead some chug that produced a stupor Instead
of elealb, .iliil the cuiialn falls.
As Alia, Miss Holland has .1 lole wlilih olteis
her splendid pppoi (unities unci none of tin 111 go
begging. In Hie Hut and second aits she is tlie
lender, tin-Ill'; maiden, ill voted lo her paienU
who has attiactcd the love of a man tiom .1
Inglici social seale. To "avc the life of I11-1
father and to rescue hei mother tiom torture alio
allows herself to he made a wanton in the c.vcs
of the mall she lovisj but in the scene in Ihe
elm hess palaic when she has been humiliated
and dlsgratcil pissed endui.incc, all that is
stiong anil pure vvitl'iln her icbels at the sulTei
iug 11i.it has been indicted iiiem hei. She has
been goaded too far, and like a tigcri'ss s,e (urns
upon the elespicablc duchess and paints hei pic
ture as she is beheld by viitiious women. II
was .1 line s,ene .mil capitally acled bv Miss Hol
latwl. 'Ihe- foiiith ait also lias emotional scenes
for tlie star which wile dialled with an absence
of heioics Ih it was iiiltuuable.
Leonard Walker's II. lion Ronald Von Hohen
lohe was a trifle too explemvc to be effective.
He is 11 joung man of goud stage presence and
will piobably ripen and mellow- with .veils.
Prank Ilievv had lillle to do in Ihe role of .lo
liann Winter, the musician, but that little he
did well. His woik in the last ait was xeiy
satlsf.ictoiy,
Lillian Xoiris nude a beautiful Duchess Von
W.tlclhcuu and hei work showeel tiial pcisonal
iliaitus iii-e not hei only claim to the light to
appeal behind the footlights. Olliei members of
the company who had iuipoitant palls in devel
oping the sloiy of the play were Piedciick Oi
monde, V. M, De Silke, Se.vuioin A. liose and
Pannes Hiooks.
Tlie play is stageel in .111 exception illy tine
mannei, the lllt and third ails being particu
lirly beautiful. 'Ihe ihanu will be lepeated Ibis
afternoon and evening at the Lyceum.
Last Say of Engagement.
The l-iKo iiowels wide It hive daily xislted Ihe
Aeicdeiii.v this week to witness the pci'toimincis
of the spooiiei company certainly piovea this
pnpiilaill,! of lint o!Mi,Uatkm in this city and
il is no winder Hut the Spooners corsleler this
illy one of lli"ir pit lonnc. It is iiimoisd that
.iiLiiigcniiiits aie on foot in have this company
lure again this season iluiiug tlie hitler pail.
vvlui h would 110 doubt be glad news for Acad
emy patrons tn hiar.
Today they close their ingaguiient in this city
piiscnting two will-known plain. This aflei
110011 Ihe bill announced is "I'lule Daniel, or the
Messenger fiom .Invls Seetion." This was pro
duced eailler ill the vveik and gave such excel
lent satisfaction that the mauageimnt thought
it advisable to itpcal il. 'I his evening "The
Wages of Sin" will be produced. Vcslculay al
til 110011 the house was crowded lo thu doort,
The) play picsented was "i'he Wife's Peril,"
and last evening, "The Two Orphans" xvas pro
duced. On accoiiit of the crowds attending
nightly it would be advisable to securn v our
tlikets for tonight's performance as eiily as
possible and avoid any Inconvenience that delay
might caue.
"The Lost Paradise."
Any who have not seen "The Lost Paradise"
should not fail to take advantage of The Ideals'
production of that celebrated drama oil Monday
night next at tho Academy, It is given in an
exceptionally elaborate maimer, all tlie necessary
tcenery and cliects lecpilslle for its proper prea
entatlon being carried by ihe company and a
performance above the uvcrage ia promised, all
the characters ol the play being in competent
hands.
llowson's Twentieth Century band ami orches
tra, reputed to bo one of the best musical or
ganizations with any traveling company, is a big
feature with The Ideals, and muslo lovers f liould
make it a. point to hear the daily conceits. A
strong specialty is introduced by the .Musical
Havens at all performances.
"Shaun Rhue,"
The (act that Joseph Murphy's song, "A llamL
fill ol Earth," hat reached the enormous tain ol
over a quarter ol a million copies, and is still
in great demand, is not strange. This song has
been sung by its author in his great play ol
"Shaun Khue" many thousands ol timet, and
betore a total, probably, ot over two iillion peo
ple. Heard in the second act ot "Shaun II hue"
when Larry Donovon (Joseph , Murphy) takes lilt
broken heart to the grave of bis mother a (are
wen xlslt previous to leaving the home ol Ids
birth it is morally certain that it will not only
bring tears to the rjes of a majority of the hear
ers, but that halt of them will resolve, then and
there, to possess a copy ol the composition II it
is obtsinable.
By the way, "Blmm Ttliue" is still a icltabla
stand-by among managers on the v lookout (or
sure thing bookings. "I don't see," said Mr,
Murphy, "His 1 1 lute any license to shelve 'Shaun
Rhue' when mautgers insist that I shall present
it to their audiences. This insistence would not
appear il back of it was not a demand from the
people." At the Lyceum Tuesday and Wednes
day nights. Tuesday night, "Kerry Cow''; Wed-ncsdiy-night,

The not able production this week by die Kng
tlsh Opera rompany In New York was "II, M. S,
Pinafore." Out 0. respect lo the memory ol sir
Arthur Sullivan, whose eleatli occurred Bftcr the
opera was advertised, the orchestra plajed "The
Lost Chord" before Ihe raising nf the Vurtaln.
This, all music! lovers know, Is one ol the most
beautiful religions songs ever written, and Ihe
author's royalties upon It are said to have
nmounlcil to $2M,VO0. The leading artists In the
opera were llenty P.. Dlsey as Sir Joseph Porter,
and Zellc De ..,i.m as Little lliillercup. It was
epille ft descent for Miss He Lusan from the
parts of Mlgnon and Carmen to (bat of the stout,
middle-aged bum-boat woman who peddled sand
wiches nnd other comestibles In the sailors, but
she entered tuoroiighly Into the spirit ol the
part. Mr. Dlxey is not new lo the Gilbert and
Sullivan operas, having played the parts ol Hun
tlicime In "Pallenie" and Ihe Lord Cliancelhr
In "folanthe." Willi his cleverness, skill and
experience In comedy and burlesque, It In need
less tn say that In his delivery of the llnr-s he
brought out every point In the nllbcrllan wit of
the pari, but tor Ibose who know Mr. Dlxey It
was not lo be expecled that he could sing. The
opera was handsomely mounted, though the slagc
and auditorium were rather large for an opera
of (hat character. The chorus was abundant nnd
vociferous, and the siiboidlnate puts bad ade
quate representation. .Next weclc "Esmeralda"
will be lepeated and "I Pagllacel" will be pro.
dined.
Theodore Thomas and his orchestra have been
plating during November at the Auditorium In
Chicago. On Hie 17tb he plajed the Wclngartncr
arrangement of Von Weber's "Imitation tn the
Wnllr." which Mr. llembcrger plajed here at the
last concert of the Sjmphony focIcIj-. The ar
rangement formerly used by Mr. Thomas was tlie
tterlioa orchestration, but that by Wclngartncr Is
much more brilliant,

! What's Your Money's Worth
Answering that question depends altogether upon
where you go to find out. We try to give every buyer
$1.10 worth of value for ever $1.00 he gives, instead of
trying to give him 90 cents. We do not believe in tell
ing him he is getting $2 worth for $1, but we do make
a study of what we can do on making values so that we
get right in at the rock-bottom figures. The spirit of
the times demands that the seller give more and more
value for the money every year, and we can meet that
spirit every time, in every way. In slightly used pianos
we make the following exceptional offerings :

THE MECCA OF DOMESTICS,
Mistresses and Servants Live in Bliss
in Ports of Austria.
I'lom the London Pall Mall.
Queensland is tho best country In the
world for domestic servants. Such is
the opinion of Mrs. Douglass Campbell,
of Argyll Lodge, Bognor, Sussex, who
has just returned to England after
eleven years' residence In Australia,
In Queensland, she says, the domestic
servant betters herseir in every way.
She has higher wages, more leisure,
more liberty, and she Is cared for better
than im any other country.
The mistress assists her to establish
it homo o her own, and hor success Is
all the easier because she can afford
to dress herself becomingly, . No
Queensland mistress ever refuses her
maid permission to attend balls or to
to concerts or theaters, and very often
the roUtrtss does the work in order
that her servant may have a share in
the good things of this lite.
Women who are willing to go into the
bush and work on a station are treated
with even more consideration. There
Is scarcely any difference between her
and the family In which she lives.
She has a horse to ride, drives with
the family to church, is asked out, and
taught much. Mrs. Campbell adds that
Queensland is no place for lazy or
pretentious girls. They must bo pre
pared to use their brains iand think
for themselves, tlxen success is cer
tain. "In England," she ooncludes,
"the servant is part of a system. In
Australia she Is a member of tho
household, and tho mistress holds her
pelf responsible for ber comfort and
bapfiiaei."x -

(Special Correspondence.)
New York, Nov. 30. High class eve
ning hats are lovely -combinations of
white ullo and gilt, enhanced by
colored velvet roses or broad velvet
bows beneath the brim. Shapes are
large usually off the face, and no out
lines of crowns or brims ure visible,
filmy nb-lc9 being employed with
liberty, that Anally the hat resembles
it huge snowflnke. A beautiful ex
ample Is of white tulle, with creamj
ju-iiiiinsujiL-e; luc-e unci over me Drim,
nnd at Intervals, colored crape leaves
with delicate (tendrils, outlined by
I iridescent beads, appear on the lace,
Just far enough apart to show to ad
vantage. One dark crimson, and one
ulnk velvet rose aro under the brim
supplemented by green velvet leaves.
ANOTHER EXQUISITE
white tulle hat, has a brim and crown
of tulle frills all edged by tiny gold
cords, with a black velvet bow and
Rhinestone buckle beneath the brim.
A third has a crown ot tulle folds,
and the brim Is wound with tulle, upon
which Is a very delicate design In
gold beads, and finish Is given by an
Immense tulle rosette, with half-Inch
wide gilt ribbon on tho edges. A
fourth has a flat crown, covered with
gilt tinsel, the sides and brim of tulle
folds, and at the front is an elejrant
gilt and Rhinestone buckle, about
eight Inches long, bent to the required
shape.
A BUNCH OF GOLDEN WHEAT
Is another recherche ornamentation,
and small patches of ermine on tulle
draping Is peculiar and expensive, but
not In tho best taste. Handsome black
spangled net hats are much on the
same order as those just mentioned,
and the guilt embroidered net Is also
very stylish, and adapted to middle
aged persons, who should never at
tempt anything so trying ns white
tulle. Heavier styles aro of mlrolr
velvet with ecru or white lace, fur,
aigrettes, violets, spangled ornaments,
roses or dahlias, not omitting a pro
fusion of velvet foliage.
FOLLOWING THE L10AD
of popular fancy, flowers are the pre
ferred hair ornaments, particularly
roses, sparkling with Rhinestone dew
drops; next como morning-glories,
orchids or sweet peas, the addition of
a small white aigrette helng optional,
QUt ribbon twisted into fanciful bows,
sometimes set off with block spangles,
or tulle also dotted with Rhine atone
sparks wound over white ribbon, about
completes he list, with the exception
of shell combs or ornaments, which
always hold a foremost position,
THE WAIVED POMPADOUR ROLL
still holds 'femlnlno fancy, and false
pompadours aro aften used when the
natural hair is not eufllclent to roll
over cushions. Three or four puffs are
set high on the head with on orna
ment at one side. The only new stvle
is tho hair parted on .one sldo at the
front, with two waves over the fore,
head, and tho back arranged in two
broad plaits dropping over tho neck
and fastened together toy an ornament,
this, however, requires a great deU
of hair, thcreforo its general adoo
