Judgment was given for the plaintiff, and as the defendant's beautiful wife swept gracefully out of court, Justice Stiner, following the re- tiring figure with his eyes until the door @losed upon it, was hi to exolaim wetto vooe: “Well, the man who would @dject to paying for that dress must be -* plumber!’ In an “Evening World" humereus pic- ture of yesterday, a policeman was rep- resented as getting evidence of excise law violations by standing on atilts and me people, anxious to} jooking through a saloon transom. A morning contemporary reports that po- lice evidence against saloon-keepers is actually obtained by the use of step- ladders and the transom.

Both Daniel Frohman and Comyns Carr are banking a good deal upon the next Pinero play, which Mr. Frohman will produce at the Lyceum Theatre, and Mr. Carr in London, “I rather imagine,” said Mr. Frohman yesterday, “that the new comedy will savor of the ‘Sweet Lavender’ rather than of the ‘Second Mrs. Tanqueray’ order, N Pinero Is not disheartened by the with- drawal of “The Notorious Mrs, Ebb- smith,’ but of course he needs to vary his style from time to time, The prob- lem play 1s not dead; if the problem be & good one it will prove interesting, But theatre-goers in this country prefer stories dealing with the elementary emotions—in other words, love stories, Of course, the simple love story is not all sufficient, but it can be complicated In England, where there large leisure class, with nothin, entertainingly. is a do during the day, roblem plays are sure of patronage. People of that sort don’t mind going to the play house to vex their spirit at night. In fact, it gives them something to do. In Amer- ica ft is ethorwise. classes worth speaking of, and after a hard day's tussle with the bread and butter question, peopie want recreation. ‘They clamor for relaxation. No problem lay has really been very successful here. his fact limits the fleld of American Playwrights. Perhaps that ts why there are so few of thei ft 6, ther no reason why Americans shouldn't see uch plays. They should be presented at matinees. We sadly need an ineti- tution iike the Theatre of Arte and Let. ters tried to be, It wouldn't interfe with the regular playhouses. It would do them good. People would be inter- ested in the contrast. It's & good thing, however, for American playwrights to remember that the domestic hearth is ‘the most interesting feature of American lite, and 1 think this fact, is rather en- couraging and wholesome. Miss Rhoda Cameron, of the Lyceum, is Invalided at present, and her place in the stack company during that organ fgation's coming tour will be filled by Misa Annie Irish, formerly with the Kendais.

The wedding vell which Princess Hel- ene of Orleans wore on her wedding day last Tuesday was not only a marvel of beauty, but somewhat novel in design. The most skilful workers in Bayeux were employed on it, and they are said to boast that it equalled if it did not surpass all previous efforts, owing, not so much to any extraordinary elabora- tion in the design, as to the equisite delicacy of the work. ‘The vetl—or it might be called scart— was of the finest white Chantilly lace, and nearly four yards in length, The lower edge has a broad floral border, the pattern decreasing in size until the portion worn on the head consisted merely of fragile mesh-work. ‘The centre was quite plain, but from the portion of the border which rested upon the train two graceful branches ! a TE rise and spread and wers united in @ wreath of flowers. ‘The novelty of the design consisted in the fact that in the centre of the wreath were the arms of the two families in | point d'Alencon, embroidered in the cor. | rect heraldic colors.
