THEATRICAL.
When "The Game Keeper" was pro
duced last spring in New York the en
tiro corps of critics agreed in pronounc
ing the play one of absorbing interest.
Its author, Con. T. Murphy, has wrttten
about all the successful Irish plays, such
at "The Ivy Leaf" "The Fairies Well,"
"Klllarney" and here comes the "The
Game Keeper," his latest suecesss.
All types of society are portrayed
in this play, high and low, rich
and poor, and the action carries the
various personages through some of the
most picturesque scenes for which Ire
land is famous,
All theatre goers who revel in stir
ring situations and intensely dramatic
episodes will appreciato "The Game
Keeper" which will be seen at tho Grand
opera house tomorrow evening.

The Waite Comedy Company will open
a four nights' engagement at the Grand

stands in tho front rank of the repertoire
organizations in the country and will
present several high-class plays at
popular prices.

Notwithstanding the inclement weat
her a fair sized audience attended last
evening's entertainment given under
the auspices of tho Highland members
of the Young Men's Corps. A fine
program was rendered.
t i t
Wamsher's "East Lynno" Company
presented a version of that play at tho
Grand on Saturday evening. The audi
ence was small, and the acting was
very poor.
Evolution of Chief Arthur,
The Brotherhood of Locomotive En
gineers was ten years old when in 1873
I*. M. Arthur was elected its chief. The
first decade of the order's existence
had been a formative period devoted
more to the task of obtaining recruits
and of perfecting the lines of organiza
tion than to battles for recognition or a
scale of wages. In 1807 the beneficiary
feature of the brotherhood was intro
duced, and the general impression of
the public at the time of the accession
of Arthur to the leadership of the en
gineers was that the association was
more of a lodge and 1111 Insurance order
than a labor union. It seems strange
today, when the name of Arthur is a
synonym for conservatism and the con
duct of a labor union without strikes,
to know that he was elected to the
post lie now holds by the war party of
the brotherhood.
It is still more strange to know that
for the first ten years of his leadership
he was almost constantly engaged in
leading his men through one bitter
strike after another and that liia name
was execrated as a radical and a dem
agogue and as one of the most danger
ous men with whom frightened capital
had to contend for the protection of its
rights to control its own property.—
Leslie's Popular Monthly.
One Kind of Philosopher.
"He claims to be a philosopher."
"Well, he is—of one kind."
"What kind?"
"Why, he is able to take a philosoph
ical view of all troubles except his
own."—Chicago Post.

DRESS HINTS.
White slippers nnd stockings are usu
ally worn with white evening dresses.
Mud stains should be allowed to dry,
then thoroughly brushed with a dry
cloth and the spots removed with al
cohol.
Silk skirts will retain their freshness
much longer if loops are sewed under
the flounces and the skirts hung up
side down from these loops.
To appear shorter avoid up and down
stripes. Have the trimmings on your
gowns run around, wear low heeled
shoes and have your hats trimmed
low.
When fitting a dress on a person
with a narrow back and the ordinary
front measure, use a back of a smaller
pattern—as, for instance, a thirty-four
back with a thirty-six front.
Camphor, as is well known, is useful
in keeping away moths, but it should
never be placed near sealskin. It is
said that it causes this fur to change
color, producing streaks of gray and
yellow.
A gentle friction with emery paper
will remove the shine from the shoul
ders and elbows of one's gown. It lib
Just enough to raise a little nap and
then go over with a warmed silk hand
kerchief.
When a skirt shows signs of wearing
around the pocket, take the pocket out
und put it on the other side, sewing up
the seam where it was before. This
looks neater than putting a patch
around the pocket
When drop linings hung below the
outside skirt materials, it proves that
they have been cut too long or that
they swing around and are out of
place for need of a few tackings at the
side aud back seams to hold the two
materials together.
Sack For an Invalid.
If one has an invalid relative or
friend, an acceptable gift is a loose
sack to he worn over the nightdress
when sitting up in bed. It may be
made of any kind of washing flannel.
Take a piece of flannel a yard and a
half long and twenty-seven inches
wide, and in the center of one of the
longest sides cut it down six inches.
The two points thus made are to he
turned down to form a sort of trian
gular collar on each side.
Bind all the edges with either wide
or narrow ribbon, as preferred, featli
erstitehing it down with washing silk.
Turn down the collar points, carry
ing the ribbon around these where the
flannel has been cut, which is the back
of the neck. Now fold each end even
ly for the sleeves, catching the edges
together live inches from the bottom,
uud sew on a bow of ribbon.
Sew lengths of washing ribbon at
the neck on each side to tie together
with, and the simple little sack is fin
ished. These are so easy to slip 011
that they are specially appreciated by
invalids.
The linked Potato In DIMKUIMP.
The homely baked potato Is apt to
become a monotonous article of food If
It appears undisguised nt the luncheon
table day after day or even live or six
times a week. With u little trouble
the potato can be made Into a very ap
petizing dish by Itself.
One way Is to cut off the end of each
baked potato, scoop out the Inside,
mush, adding milk, butter, salt and
pepper, the same as for mashed pota
toes. Then place the mashed potato
back In the potato shells, stick In the
end of each a slice of bacon fried crisp,
place 111 the oven and heat through.
This makes an ideal luncheon dish.
Another way Is to udd grated cheese
to the mashed potato and place back in
the shells and bent through so that the
cheese melts. Some hostesses garnish
potatoes baked this way with u bit of
white of egg beaten stiff und u spray
of parsley.
Children nnd SclNnorn.
Care must be exercised In the choice
of scissors that children are allowed to
handle. Kindorgnrten depots contain
scissors especially rounded for the use
of the little ones. They are rounded at
the ends and are tolerably sharp. Ex
pensive scissors may be bought, but
cheaper ones answer very well If the
joint Is oiled. To hold scissors properly
for paper cutting the thumb aud mid
dle linger should pass through the
loops, and the forefinger should be held
under the lower blade to guide It. The
right hand should be kept still and the
paper moved as required by the left
hand. The scissors should never be
closed until the cutting out Is finished.
I'niuoe Mrs. West.
Music is one of Mrs. George Corn
wallis West's favorite occupations, and
she is herself a splendid pianiste. Ev
ery one may not be nwnre that Mrs.
West Is one of the few society women
who have been tnttooed. She has on
her wrist an elaborate tnttoo mark,
which is usually concealed by n brace
let. She is the only American woman
011 record who, of her own free will,
ever relinquished a title that she ouco
possessed.—M. A. I'.
Women Tobacco Workers.
In the Lyons tobacco factory 188 wo
men ami girls from sixteen to twenty
eight years of age work ten hours a
day In the cigar department, and only
one of them earns as high as a dol
lar per day. Their situations are very
desirable, and there Is now a list of
applications for places containing over
500 names.
A Kerchief Hint.
When purchasing sheer linen hand
kerchiefs, those that are pure linen
may be readily recognized by moisten
ing the tip of the finger and stretching
the fabric over it. Linen will show the
moisture through immediately, but
cotton threads tnke more time io ab

Debt and I(m Danger.
ray as you go, boys. No matter bow
earnestly you long for the possession of
a gun, a boat, a bicycle or what not
nor how certain you may be that at the
end of the week or the month you will
have the money to pay for it, do not i
run in debt.
Lyman Abbott, the man who occu
pied Henry Ward Beeclier's place in j
Plymouth pulpit, lias this to say on the I
spending of money before it Is earned: j
"Hope inspires the man who is earning !
for future expenditure; debt drives the ,
man who is earning for past expend!- j
ture, and it makes an immeasurable |
difference in life whether one is In- j
spired by hope or driven by debt."
A man—or a boy—in debt is like n
swimmer with a stone around his neck.
However expert he may be, his on
ward progress has a continual drag
put upon it that not only hinders him
from reaching the goal, but discour- J
ages him in his efforts to ovnn i-onn iio j

Minimum Wnire SI,OOO.
Professor Albion Small of the Univer
sity of Chicago believes that in the gen
eral wage scale the minimum should bo
i SI,OOO a year and the maximum should
be sr>o.ooo.
i He advanced this idea In a lecture
j before the Central Y. M. C. A. of Chl-
I cago recently on "Social Economics."
! Professor Small does not believe that
' any man has a wage earning capacity
I worth more than the present salary of
! the president of this country, and lie
I believes that no man can live, bring up
j n family and enjoy the ordinary human
i happiness on less than SI,OOO a year,
lie would solve the wage problem by
adjusting all men to this scale and by
barring all women and minors from the
wage earning necessity.
