The work of the orchestra was clever and the costuming was most effective. There was not a single hitch in the rendition and many expressions were made that the performance should be repeated. —_———————— Refused Entrance to Schools. Complaint was made yesterday to Su- perintendent of Schools Webster by Mrs. | Gossett of 135 Ellis street that her_ boy, Wendell Gosseit, had been refused ad- mission to six schools on account of lack of accommodations. The boy desired tu attend the fourth B grade, and was forti- fied by a letter signed by the Superin- tendent requesting principals, should ac- commodations permit, to accept Wendeil as a pupil. The boy applied to the prin- cipals of the Lincoln, Humboldt, Harrl- son, Moulder, Adams and John Swett schools, and was turned away from all of them with the information that there was no room. ————— Indicted for Counterfeiting.

Another attempt on the part of the commission merchants to secure a de- cision from the Supreme Court as to the constitutionality of the fish and game laws was insugurated yesterday. A clerk and that is Newbro's Herpicide. This germ eats its way into the scalp, down to the hair root, where it saps that vitality, ausing dandruff as it digs up the scalp nto little white scales. Unless it is de- stroyed there’s no permanent stopping of falling hair and cure of dandruff and baldness. Newbro’s Herpicide kills the gern. “Dest; -y Jestroy the cause, you remove for the law firm of Riordan & Lande swore to a warrant for the arrest of a clerk for O'Brien & Spotorno for viola- tion of the quail law.

Among the devoted workers are Mrs. Eleanor Martin, Mrs. J. B. Casser- 1y, Mrs. Tobin, Mrs. A. H. Loughborough, Mrs. P. J. White and many other society matrons. The programmes rendered every evening and the “at homes” of the vari- ous booths are among the chief attrac- tions. * The ladles of the C. L. A. 8. booth had charge of the entertainment last night. Prominent members of the aid soclety from all the parishes of the city were in attendance. A drill on the floor of the pavilion by Company A, League of the Cross, was one of the features of the evening.

A. building. The hall was packed to its greatest capacity. The decorations were composed of autumn leaves and flowers, and the vocal and instrumental selections treated of the vines, the weather und all thé conditions and pleasures that accompany the au- tumn. For refreshrients tl of the grape was drunk. e pure juice Pnnt and at great Irish team, in comedy specialties; La Paloma quartet, four clever and capl- tal girl singers; Dr. J.

GIFTS MADE TO BE SOLD Woman’s Hospital Benefit To-Day. HAT most attractive sale of Christ- mas gifts announced to be held in the Maple room of the Palace Ho- tel for the benefit of the free ward and the ‘free clinic of the Woman's Hospital begins this afternoon and con- tinues this evening, to-morrow afternoon and to-morrow evening. The lady managers of the hospital under whose patronage the sale is given have been busy arranging their choice and lovely wares to the best advantage on tables and in beoths and a preliminary view shows that not too much has beer® sald concerning_the beauty of the goeds to be offered. Especlaliy is this true of the wonderful collection of brocades from Paris. Never before was this handsome fabric made to do duty in so many and such novel ways. Picture frames, boxes of every description, for phetographs, letters, jewels, laces, gloves and handker- chiefs, pincushions of a dozen sorts, some of them filled with new varieties of pins for corsage and hat; pillows—great luxu- rious ones upon which the beauties of the sixteenth century might gladly have laid their dainty heads—furnishings for the writing desk of many new sorts, including brocade-bound _engagement books and blotting pads; boxes with heavy covers fitting In so that my lady's veil is pressed into good condition after the day's wear— these are only a few of the new ways to use old brocades. The rummage table is another attraction and will hold ‘some choice old bits of brass, china and glass well worth inspecting. In the cheerful ward at the Woman's Hospital, where ‘the ten free beds stand side by side along the windowed wall, are lying the suffering women who are part of the number to be benefited by this sale. White-capped nurses bend over them and leading surgeons and physiclans give free- 1y of their best skill to restore them to health. The sale is for a noble purpose and well deserves the assistance of a generous public. There are about a score of student nurses at the Woman's Hos- pital and almost as many graduates find constant employment there. Miss Lillian Burkhart will be present CHARITY'S CALL HERE was not a belle or a beau or a swell matron missing at the Pre- sidfo hop last evening. The bril- Hant assemblage that filled the flag-trimmed ballroom recalled to the older set memories of the day when Greenway ruled supreme and the “Friday nights” were everything. There are no more gracious hosts than the boys that wear the blue, and last night proved it. Everything .that could be done was done for the comfort of the guests. The ball- room -was an entrancing vislon with its flags, stacked arms, gleaming swords and shining musketry, forming a decoration most appropriate and artistic. And the fioor! -And the music! Everybody was in eestacy about them, and the many flatter- ing things said were all deserved. Mrs. Millar, Mrs. Rumbaugh and Mrs. Marshall received the guests and extend- ed to them a most gracious welcome.
