It will be pleasant news to the thea tre-goers of this city to reud the nounooment of the engagement <>f Weber & Fields’ celebrated bucc "Hoity Toity,” which now on its fare well tour will be at the Lyceum on Tuesday evening, the 15th InBt. A Weber & Fields’ production can always be counted on as being a good show', and what Is more, It is always a high class entertainment, and "Holty Toity” is conceded to be by far the best thing these clever |>uople have ever produced. The book Is by Edgar Smith and the music by John Strom- berg. One scene gives a view of the campus of Yale University, wlfore all the characters meet, and a boat crew appears to take Lady Grafter on a trial spin. The scene changes to a river view., where a shell Is seen with the rowers and Lady Grafter as the coxswain; sterroptlcon Bjldes deplct- irg /flhe moonlight' waters and the pano rama of the ,river bank beyond. A beautiful boating song Is sung, and the effect proves one of the prettiest imaginable. The chorus girls cut no small figure in this scene, as well as throughout the entire performance. Their rare beauty and charms together with the dazzling stage business and pictures originally taught by that marvellous Stage Director, Julian Mitchell, which have all be-*n retained,! make this alone worth the price of admission. The original scenery and light ef fects used in the New York produc tion at Weber & Fields’ own Broad way Theatre, are used In this pro duction. and an entirely new and al together gorgeous set of costumes have been provided. In. all, it will be a delightful treat not only from a mu sical and comedy point of view, but as a real beauty show. TATK-RAY.

Eddy and tho History of the Chris tian Science movement. For the first time a complete, Impartial und t story of Mrs. Eddy and Christian Sci ence Is to bo lmd—It will .run Georglne Milmlne has written the story—for nearly three years she has pursued her study of the subjects. Five other writers of McClure's staff have worked with her to moke the story accurate, fair, unbiased and com plete. in view of the fact that for some months the press bus been Full of diverse and conflicting news and of statements regarding Mrs. Eddy, it is evident that accurate knowledge of her is difficult to obtain In a short time. Consequently! MCluro’s long, an thorough preparation of its series will give us for the first time a true history und account of lu»r and her cult. Curl Schurz’s Remlnlsoencs of a long life will be continued. An indi cation of the timeliness of those rem iniscences and the re-awakened na tional Interest In Carl Schurz to which they have contributed; nre tho groat Carl Schurz Memorial Meetings held recently In the cities, and the move ment started which proposes to raise $250,000, and erect a Carl Schurz Me morial as a tribute to his great ser vice to the progress of our country. William Allen White, Samuel Hop kins Adams, Burton J. Hendrick and George Klbbe Turner will also con tribute to McClure's’ powerful) articles on present day topics, conditions and men of national interest. These wri ters are big men and the work of each one aside from Its literary achlev ment Is a compelling, wholesome fac tor In the regeneration which these United States are now undergoing. George Kennan who won Ills spurs by his remarkable series on Siberia and Russia’s Exile System has been added to McClure’s staff. The suits of his reci-nt Investigations and work will appear at an early date. Ellen Terry contributes an intimate history of the English drama of our day. This writing teems with an ccdotes and incidents from the lives of groat actors Whom she knew lntl mately. From these droll, amusing and interesting hupi>eningB we can un derstand why these men and women of genius become loved and famous. For the story readers products of all McClure’s fiction favorites will pear, and a large number of writers who have ‘‘hit’’ recently. Such well known names as Joseph Conrad*- Mary Stewart Cutting, Perceval Gibbofl, Vi ola Roseboro, O. Henry. Myra Kelly, Rex Beach, Mrs. Wilson Woodrow and Helen R. Martin give promise of a stojfy make-up as good as any readet could really wish. Illustrators of note and nr rlt will also contribute their share and add to the authors’ productions and enhance the writings and stories by scores of pictures and illustrations In every issue. COT,.

The streets of the old city of Venice were often extremely thick in mud, in spite of the great sewers which dated from the tenth century. Even now the thoroughfares between the Piazza and Rialto are sometimes sufficiently bad. Wo are writing of the time when the population was nearly five times what it now is, and when Venetian trade was at its zenith. Well, to com bat this mud the ladies took to high beeled shoes. As the mud grew worse the heels became taller and taller until at length they were half a yard high and ns diffi cult to control ns a pair of Btllts with out handles. The consequence was that a Indy In full dress, obliged to walk but n few yards, hud to be sup ported on both sides. This was a task for the black pages or for the lovers, wbo bad at that time become a very conventional part of Venetian society. Mr. H. B. Hitchcock’s many friends are glad to know that he has moved back from Floyd county to Taylors ville! Miss Avle Tate entertained the Tate- Ray bridal party Monday evening at her home on Main street, tlie house being decorated with flowers and lerns, with white and red the color scheme. The hostess was assisted In serving refreshments by Mi sses Mamie Jones and Pauline Ray. The store of Mr. G. M. Ayers, on North Main street, was discovered on fire about 6 o’clock Tuesday morn ing, and was quite badly damaged. The store is right in the middle of the block, and but for the good work of the Fire Detriment the whole row of buildings would have been' endangered. A Slow I'hntofcrnpher.

Sugar of lead lias nothing to do with lead, nor bus cream of tar tar anything to do with cream.

The Parisian ragpicker is n well known character to all who have trav ersed the streets of tljat capital at night, but he has 11 colleague concern ing whom little is said or known, the "dead dog”.and "old cork” collector. Why these two Industries should go together Is inexplicable, but such is the case. Dead dogs nre by no means bad property. Tho skin fetches from twopence to threepence when It has not become deteriorated by long res idence In the water. The fat Is worth tlvopence the two and one- tnird popiuls. and the hones also sell for 11 trifle. The corks are by no men ns so valuable, as after they have been elennwl und pnred they will only sell for A veponce per hundred. The profession Is only sufficiently lucra tive to maintain a few members (2 francs a day being the average gain), Who reside for the most part in that chiffonier quarter, the Rue Petit.

If the owner generally preferred Scrip tural subjects, as became a prince of the church, be also collected many hangings wrought with scenes from classic or mediaeval story. Thus, while the walls of one chamber set forth the history of Samuel or David or Es ther, those of another glowed with the labors of Hercules, the woes of Prium or the "Romaunto of the Rose.” In the rooms where he received visitors the tapestries were changed once a week. —Macmillan's Magazine.
