ELMO MONDAY \ Large ‘advance sales for the re- maining performances of “Girls” in- dicate the popularity of this week's attraction at the Lyceum. Besides will be matinee and { formances Saturday. The Lyceum Players will open next Monday evening in “St. Elmo,” a most -delightful southern melodrama written from the book of the same name. In_ it there is a charming love | story and a wealth or incidents that work up into most thrilling climaxes. There are a number of fine parts in the cast and the scenery is excellent. Manager Birch is most fortunate in having in the company Mr. Black- more, who created the role of “St. Elmo,” who is represented as one of the virile type of men found in evening per- | the south of a couple decades ago.| Powerful scenes, in which he is to be supported by Miss Skirvin, will go to make up one of the finest attrac- tions in which the players have been seen. The atmosphere of the setting is most pleasing. The characters will adopt the dialect peculiar to the south and the costumes will be those of sev- eral years ago. As in all the pro- ductions of the Lyceum Players the greateést care and attention will be given to the staging of the produc- tion. ACROBATIC WONDERS THRILL AT KEENEY’S Bushels of thrills are given the { patrons of Keeney's theater at every performance by Levail and Vondini, a pair of European acrobatic wonders, whose aerial specialty is one of the sensational attractions on this week’s bill. Feats of a spectacular order, performed at great hazard, are in- troduced by the team, On the trapeze and rings these performers are more skillfu] than any aerial experts visit- ing Keeney's in a long time, ing Keeney’'s a long time. They exhibit great daring and produce many sensations while * they hold forth, Another aerfal feature that is at- tracting considerable attention is the wire act offered by the Berfords. They open with- a three tight rope feature and later introduce many feats on a single line. The male member of the team is particularly clever and his exhibition commands attention. Johnnie Hoey, the diminutive com- edian, who is appearing with Janet Mozar and her dancing girls, keeps ! the audience in excellent humor dur- ing the time he is on the stage. There s plenty of ‘“‘pep” to Johnnie and he makes things hum every minute. Miss Mozar is a good dancer and is just as lively as Johnnie. The pair set a rapid pace' for the dancing girls and the entire company elimin- ates all g#he time-killing features usu- ally noted in acts of this character. Cook and Stevens, “the Coon and the Chinaman,” have the most popu- lar act on the program. They are comedians of the first rank and they work entirely along original lines. Cook’s singing of “The Millionaire Tangd” and other popular numbers is greatly appreciated by the audi- ence. Brown and Brown, juvonile entar- tainers, and Evelyn Ware, singing comedienne, make up the balance of the show. Those of you who know what in- finite ‘pains Miss Ryan takes to make everything in her shop, 79 Pratt street, Hartford, exclusive, will an- ticipate something very choice when you are informed that she has just received a new line of waists—new voiles with, colored embroidery, new crepe de chines that include the new models with detachable sheer linen eollars, new handkeérchief linens in color, striped and dotted volles and many other waists as beautiful as they are exclusive.—advt.

The clerk didn’t see it at {once. He was looking at Miss Mary Shaughnessy and he made nu { mistake. She was good to look at— "eyes like thé deep blue of Killarney, !a wreath of fluffy, dark brown hair and typical Irish features. About . her was a purposeful ai | Miss Mary Shaughnessy, who had !arrived Monday in Boston, told her !story after some persuasion, She was running away—not from the revolu- tion in Ulster, but from what she l'said was much worse—matrimony. Matrimony, Mary explained, is a splendid institution when both parties are agreeable, but when She is twen- ty-three and Hec is older than her own father flirt is preferable. Mary said she had $7,000 of her own anl that her family was wealthy. She had been living with her grandmother, she said, and is a cousin of Lady Moira Darragh. She was fond of her family, but when they insisted that she wed Hugh Wilson Mary packed her trunk and came to America. Now comes the real story. Up in Edmonton, Alberta, lives a handsome voung Irishman who came to Amer- jca five vears ago to seek his fortune in the wheat country. He is Captain John St, Leger Moore, and the pic- ture which Mary showed proved her contention that her John couldn’t hide in a crowd. They were not engaged when John left Treland, but frequent letters had done the trick, and when the pres- sure at home became too strong jan Came from Cork and Is Geing to Winnipeg—There Will Be a Good Looking Young Irishman Waiting 1 § for Her. Mary sent a cablegram and followel it in person. “Indeed, I'll be glad to see him,” she said, “and I fancy he'll be glad to see me. lonesome time of it up, there, where there is never a soul to speak to bar the cows. He was the youngest son of his father, and in Ireland young- est sons fare ill. He is going to meet me in Winnipeg.” And Mary blushed. “It will be fine to ride over the great prairie that John has written me about. I love riding, and the thing I most hated to leave behind was my darling saddle horse, Dolda. T shall have her sent out to me, along | with my Irish terrier, Scrubs, and many a long romp we'll have over the open country, “There were doings after they found out that I had gone. They sent | me eight wireless messages to come back. That is not easy when on a big ship going the other way. And I'm glad to be away from Ire- | land, with its Home Rule fights and its militant suffragettes. They should be in jail—or in the lunatic asylums.” Miss Shaughnessy said she was g0- ing to Montreal last evening. She will spend a few days with Mr. and | Mrs, Francis Donoughmore, at West- mount, and then go -on to the home of her aunt, Mrs. Arthur Scott, of ‘Winnipeg, where she will be joined by Captain "Moore. When asked if the wedding would take place as soon as she réached ‘Winnipeg, she replied: “Ah, you should ask Captain Moore about that!” But the twinkle in her eyes left .no room for doubt, DIVORCEE WHO PLANS | TO VISIT AMERICA | London, April 10.—Mrs. Cornwallis-West, having secured an absolute divorce and a final. decree, will hereafter be known as Lady Ran- dolph Churchill.

How We Fool Ourselves By RUTH CAMERON. T'S a wise mind that knows its own motive. How often we sincerely belleve that we are actuated by some most commendable consideration, while all the time in the background of our minds, lurking behind our dense ignorance of ourselves, skulks scme far less worthy motive. Occasionally something brings this real motive out from rlace, and then we are as surprised as the veriest stranger. Once upon & time I planned to tske a little breathing spell in the country. A friend who was in great need of a rest was to accompany me and We were to meet two other old friends at the little inn to which we were to escape. I had been anxious about this particular friend for some time, and I had been instrumental in persuzding her to take this rest. There- fore when circumstances arose at my home which made 4t difficult for me to be spared, I was greatly troubled. You see I knew that my fdlend weuld not go without me and I felt sho ought, to go. ““Of course if it were only myself I had to consider, I shouldn’t hesi- tate a'moment,” 1 assured myself, “but I can’t bear to see her give it up.” And actuated, as I sincerely believed, chiefly by this motive, I made up my mind to go. The day before we were to start, my friend telephoned me that the sudden death of a dear aunt had made it imperative that she should give up the trip after all. Of course my first feeling was sorrow for her, but close, oh so close, upon its heels came another feeling, a strong disinclina- tion to give up the trip for myself. And much to my own sincere surprise 1 found that I was almost as anxious to go as ever, and that the seifish rart of me was already marshalling new arguments why I should go, su¢h as that I needed the rest and would be of more service at home if I took it. Did I go? Don't ask me that. If I say “No™ I shall be claiming too much mefit. If I say “Yes” I shall be confessing too much selfishness. The point T wanted to bring out was that all the time I had been de- ceiving myself about my own motive. ! 1 have chattered at such length about myself because 1 wanted to 1llustrate the tendency of self-deception, and I know what goes om in my own mind better than I can know about any one else. Of course I may be wrong in thinking this is typical, but I have often been astonished to hear people ascribing the most unlikely motives ? their own actions and intentions, and I cannot help thinking a similar sel deception is going on within their minds. “I've ceased to justify my deeds unto myself The last infirmity of evil” said Lord Byron. 1 wonder if he had. its hiding 1 wonder if anyone ever does.
