Ernest Shipman, the New York theatrical manager, is now in a position to testify to this fact if a docu ment recently received from London la >vhat It purport* to be. Mr. Shipman states that it is a docu ment from the office of Lord Chamber- lain, the British official censor of stage plays in England. The text of the doc ument seta forth that ’’Dorothy Vernon ol Haddon Hall," the piece founded on Mr. Charles Major’s novel of the agme title and In which Miss Laura Burt and Mr. Henry Stanford appear at the Grand Monday and Tuesday nlghta and Tuesday matinee, cannot be produced In Great Britain and Ireland or any of his majesty’s dominions, unless certain passages objected to by Lord Chamber- lain "be expurgated." The story of the play deal* with In teresting episodes of the reign of Elisa beth, Queen of England, and Intro- duces very attractively the character of Mary, Queen of Scot*. Lord Cham berlain apparently thinks some of the Incidents throw a rather too lurid light on royalty. The peculiar feature of the case Is the fact that the play had already hod one performance in England for copy* wrlght purposes nnd was really II- cen*ed by Lord Chamberlain, previous to which the customary two copies were deposited for the libraries. Evidently the reader of plays In Lord Chamberlain's office bud failed to read the manuscript carefully, and a second perusal brought to light the passages objected to. The English right* to the pluy had Already be.»:i disposed of to Fred Terry and Julia Xollxon, who, If It cannot be put on, will have to suf fer, a fact which served to lessen Mr. Shipman'* apprehension when he first heard of the Lord Chamberlain clslon.

The por trayat of the mischievous "Puck" by a woman Is not • without precedent, though stars and leading women have seldom given It preference over Helena and Hertnla. Miss Ellen Terry at the ago of 15, played "Puck," but In later years Was always cast for Helenn. Augustin Daly’s production* Mis* Ada Rehan Invariably was cast for Helena, while the part of "Puck" fell to the late Ellen Burg (Mrs. Robert Ede*on>. Lau ra Keene Is one notable exception to the general rule. At Laura Keene's Varieties In 1859 *he appeared , as "Puck" for a few performances.

By PAOLO LOMBROSO. For 4'euturles mother* have Insisted that there I*. In oil the work), nothing more beautiful than little children. When they have found It npproplate to compare the eyes of their children with stars nnd their skin with the leaves of roses, they have done so In order, to flatter the stars nud the rose*. Mothers would never stop If one were to ask them to go over the entire rosary of charms of their children; the plump little feet, the snow-white shoulder*, the golden hair, the Muilllng mouth and the little dim ple* flint seem made to be kissed. It is not mother love which has made them blind. The little face., the soft body of tbelr babies are really things of beauty, and after the artists have shown us the beauty of children In their Cupids, now come the scientists and anthropologists sud prove poaltlvcly and conclusively wlint the mothers have proclaimed ages ago. The reasons for the beauty of children ore welL supported lu nature. Every healthy child must, from more physiological rea sons. be more heantful than the adult. The clearness of the (complexion, the freshness of the skin, the elasticity of the flesh are meric physical phenomena. In children tlte processes of reuewal of the tissue* take place much more energetically than In grown people. The blood, whose course of circulation is shorter, performs Its task In shorter tlm** aud more frequently. It per vades sll tissue* and lends them this flour ishing characteristic elasticity which we admire so much. When a certain quantity of water goes Into the ground all plants near that spot are benefited thereby, but the larger the area Is the less each plant will get. “ Is one of the organa In.human beings which develops most rapidly. After the seventh year It* development cesses, while all other features eontluua to grow, the cheeks, the mouth, the nose, the chin, the wholo head. For this reason the eys, which appear large lu the small face, grow less con spicuous nnd look smaller In the large, fully developed face. We can furthermore prove the fart that the adult* who appear to have large eyes. have small feature*, and that It la Indeed these which make' the eye* seem large. Now as to the expression of the eyes, which always *eem to reflect good humor and Joy; the child derives this from its own soul. The child Is a being made for Joy. Joy Is the very foundation of childhood’* psych ology. One only needs to watch children to discover how carefully they avoid any thing which may cause annoyance nnd pain and how eagerly .they seek anything that gives them nit opportunity for Joy. No one understands better than the child to derive pleasure from the ordinary oc currences In life, eating, walking, dressing; no one Is more ready to spend the whole time to piny; no one Is more proue than tho child to take part In any enjoyment; even in one which It does not understand. For this reason the child laughs when It aee§ grown people laugh without knowing what caused the laughter. Thla love of joy which Is apparent la nil children, reflects Itself In the expression of their faces and their eyes. Also the mouth Is In children more beau tiful than In adults. W# often wonder when we see how the mouth of a child which we think beautiful lembles that of one of the 'parents which not attractive at all. Apropos of that I may be permitted to mention a personal Incident. A friend 1 of mine once told me Uim my child had favorable laws applying only to the child. I/»t us, for liiRtunce. look at the eye. it an acknowledged fart that It Is much easier to flml lien ut If til eyes lu children than In adult*. Nearly all children have large eyes. Thl* Is no accident but a natural anatomical phenomenon. The eye There arc phlloaop mlcal rensou* for the greater beauty of the child’s mouth. The anatomical reasons are some I have Just mentloned-the greater vitality of mat ter. the richness of the blood and the soft ness of the lines. But there Is still another reason. The mouth la au Instrument which I* ..lying used constantly-chewing, eating, tabling klMlni-nnd as It Is. being, used It line* i original softness and 1 and flml reasons for ihe fact that the child, when absolutely normal and healthy. I* far more attractive and fascinating for the lover of human beauty than the fully developed belug. "Tha Squaw Man." Edwin Milton Hoyle’s great play Western life, "The Squaw Man," come* to the,Grand Friday and Saturday next direct from Its remarkable run of six months at Waltack’s Theater In New York, where It played to over 300,000 persons. This piece has been spoken of a* the closest approach to the tr American play that ha* yet been given to tho stage, nnd it* strength and truth In the display of human emotion has been the subject of discussion to a greater extent than any other produc tion made this season. There is a charm about It that I* positively en trancing, for the character* are gath ered from many land* and from many part* of the country', vet the whole Is artistically bfenoed, and the story “Tom, Dick and Harry."
