I’E ORGAN 2% ano |0¢ News for Theatre Goers and Women R “DAVID HARUM” IS POPULAR AT LYCEUM , The popularity of *“David Harum' ncreases with every performance and is expressed spontaneously by the patrons as they leave the theater at the conclusion of the performances. The most favorable commendation ef the excellence of the manner in which it is staged and the interpretations by the different characters has been heard. To please the public so well it is necessary to give the finest plays by the best of actors. The wide range of talent of the regular mem- bers of the company has been well displayed in the performances of the last two weeks. In “Broadw Jones,” which the management offers as the next attrac- tion at the Lyceum, there will be an- other call on the players for a d play of exceptional versatility. “Broadway Jones’ represents the per sonality that the frail actor-author- producer so likes to assume. through the village of New York at a sixty miles an hour speed, proceeding to burn up the town and incidentally his wealth, which is a mere trifle of about one million . sous. Then he wakes up. The awakening is like whole lot of the ‘‘morning after. Force of necessity, being plum broke, compels him to resolve ‘“never again’ and this time there is a bright pros- pect of keeping to the promise. His trail in search of an existence bring: him across a widow with weath and he'is about ready to marry for money when providence intervenes. The in- cidents of “Broadway Jones” are chock full of fine fun. for laughter only. attraction. MUSICAL COMEDY GOOD AT KEENEY'’S “The Girl Behind the Counter,” the musical comedy used this week as a vehicle for the Fields Brothers’ Stock company, which has been serving as headliners at Keeney’'s for the past two months, is without question the best selection these popular entertain- ers have made since coming to th city. The act is founded on the comic opera of the same name in which ‘Weber and Fields appeared success- fully two seasons ago. It is brimful of wholesome comedy and contains many situations that are highly amus ing. Several tuneful song numbers are introduced during the progress of the comedy, giving the Three Shaws ! a chance to display their talent. This | trio has done its share of the work since the company started ‘here and the members are entitled to a good portion of the credit for the success of the engagement. The same applies to Harry Jackson, the young Hebrew comedian, who has shown much abil- ity as a character actor in every show the company has presented. The lion’s share of the credit of course goes to the inimitable Fields brothers. They are a remarkably clever pair of Ger- man comedians and their work each week has been of a high order. The charming Lucille Savoy con- tinues to augment the ranks of her local admirers. This dainty little woman is appearing this week in an artistic posing novelt; Her posing i novel in character and the subjects, she uses afford big opportunities to display her worth. She sings enter- tainingly and the freshness of her act makes a strong appeal to the patrons | of the theater. Joseph Adelman and company in “The Parson and the Burglar” make a most favorable impression. The sketch is a powerful drama with a climax that is gripping in its force. It drives a moral home skillfully and leaves a most pleasant taste. Mr. Adelman and his supporters work in perfect harmony and they accomplish results. The Nelson trio does some good tricks on the trapeze and diversifies their act with vocal selections and comedy. Jeanette Homer, singing comedienne, also finds favor daily.

Illustrated, is a design that can be treated as shown on the figure and as shown in the small view, and none but the initiated would guess that fundamentally the two are the same. here is a perfectly plain straight back, and a loose front effect, with darts at the shoulders only. Both the longer coat with cutaway fronts and belt and the short plain little coat in military style are eminently smart and eminently attractive, and each is of course adapted to a different use, while each in its own , Way is perfect. Either the turned-over or straight collar can be used with either model and if liked, the longer coat can be inade with straight fronts, omitting the cutaway effect. For the 16 year size will be required 814 yds. of material 27 in. wide, 223 yds. 36, 2 yds. 44, 134 yds. 54. The pattern No. 8584 is cut in sizes for 16 and 18 years. It will be mailed to any nddress by the Fashion Department of this paper, on recéipt of ten cents. MANTON | gether ! sugar | inch 8587 Three-Piece Skirt, 24 to 34 waist. Unquestionably the skirt that gives the srcular effect is a favorite one of the sea- jon. Here is a new model that is cut in three pieces, it provides pretty ripples knd folds, and it can be finished with higit or with natursl waist line. The model is a hshionableonefor thesuitand for the gown, or the street and for the house, for the thinner as well as for the heaviet ma- terials. In the picture, it is made from one of the new poplins with a simple titched hem, for skirts of this kind are not apt to show much trimming. Poplin is a favorite material and a handsome one as well, but all the suiting and all the materials used for the gown can be utilized; crépe de chine, cotton crépe and the like, make up just as attractively as the heavier fabrics and as_there are ionly three seams, there is very little labor required for the making. For the medium size wil] be needed 434 yds. of material 27 in. wide, 334 yds. 36, 255 yds. 44 or 54 in. wide; width of skirt at lower edge is 2 yds. and 24 in. The pattern No. 8587 is cut in sizes from 24 to 34 waist measure. It will be mailed to any address by the Fashion Depart- ment of this paper, on receipt of ten cents. Carefully Selected and Well made and ed entrees give the most simple din- ner a note of excellence, it a little forethought is used in planning material may be at hand al- most daily for their concoction.

It should be boiled down and then strained for chicken bouillon The dark meat may seerve for an entree, while the liver, heart and gizzard can be used as a canape or as another entree in the morning omelette, or stewed in a brown gravy, seasoned with a little Madeira wine and turned over toast, for a break- fast dish.
