The firm set to work to find a. suitable woman, and decided on Miss Blanche Whitham, a domestic employed at a hotel. Miss Whitham is 13 years old and good-looking.

Actors' Carele-s Work -On the Road." How Chevalier Got Eveu With a Critic. "Audacity" appears to be the watchword just now in matters theatrical Not only is this true of the more frothy forms of entertainment. The virus has entered the dramatic body, and it is evident that no portion of it is to be spared.

The Empire Theater Stock company of this city is far and away the best organization in this country. There is not a stick in it and it contains several actors whoso superiors in their lines of work do not exist anywhere, Tho plays are mounted up- parently without regard to there is an air of respectability about tho theater which cannot fail to impress even the occasional visitor. And yet Paul Potter's drama, "The Conquerors, is now the attraction at the Empire.

Columbus, Jan. 21. The senatorial bribery investigation was not before the senate yesterday as expected. The crowds waited in vain during the morning session for a report from the senate committee. At its sessions Tues- and Wednesday nights the com- a critic in this city who is willing to admit that anything more frank to use -n mild term, has over been seen here, at least in a respectable and dignified houiso like the Empire.

While there is practically but one opinion as to the boldness of "Tho Conquerors there is some difference as to its dra- niatic value. To some persons it is a wonderful bit of construction, while to others it is theatric and in many respects even stupid and intensely unreal, btill, tho are that it will have at least a moderately successful career, for there can be no denying that the story is a very strong and interesting one. It deals with the Franco-Prussian war and the gradual "respectableizing" of a brute of a uhlan officer through the awakening of a real love for the girl for whom at first his feelings were most contemptible. It is fliin- cult to tell the story without offending the sensibilities of the super-squeamish, but; there are several powerful situations doubtless feeling a good time the guying them and every opportunity, nnd that as ho wasi having audience wus correspondingly amused. This performer would not have behaved in that outrageous manner in a theater in this city for but he cared very little for the opinion of "outsiders and proceeded to make a monKcy of himselt He will find that his former patrons will resent this insult by nonuttendance should he ever visit the same house.

But, after all this very stupidity is one of the most pronounced characteristics of the average actor It is unbusinesslike and unconventional to behave in that manner, and there- great skin cure, and mild of ctmcciu. RESOI.VEST, greatest of purifiers and humor cures. (uticura fore he does it. Helen Bertram's success in London is a genuine one, for not only do the members of the American colony there write enthusiastically to their friends in this city concerning the hit she has made, but the foreign papers all praise her highly This is especially gratifying in view of the fact that when the young lady first applied for a position to tho director of tho Prince of Wales' theater it is said that she was asked to sing and then pleasantly informed field Country Golf -club boldly introduces a new style of putting. He insists upon facing the hole squarely back of tho ball, one foot on either side of the white sphere, which rests about 14 inches before an imaginary line drawn from shoe to shoo.

The left hand rests on the hip, the club being held lightly just below the leather in the right hand, with the thumb down the shaft. Before striking Leavitt moves the putter with a slow, pendulum motion to and fro over the ball to get tbe exact line for the hole, and then he makes tie Bbot by a gentle hit with the back of the club Except on well roiled turf, Leavitt puts in the orthodox way, buton a smooth putting green he claims that his new style is deadly at any distance within 90 feet of the cup. Tho other new principle was discovered by William Wheeler of the Brook- Jawn club of Bridgeport, and is alleged to be an improvement in driving. Like many left handed drivers, Wheeler played the iron clubs right handed, and the discovery dates from his resolve some months ago to play right handed entirely. He has succeeded admirably in this result, and new, instead of an ambidextrous style, uses only right handed clubs, and he ranks high among the scratch players throughout Connecticut.

In the new Wheeler system the player must take his Btance as usual and tee up the ball. Then, which is the first part of tbe system, he must mark a line about four inches long before tbe ball in the direction he wishes it to fly. The line may be traced on the dirt or else be donned straw or a splinter of wood. Then it is time to drive off In tbe swing all effort to gain distance must be ignored and but one idea throujtioul the worid.

Indianapolis, JMI. 21. Governor Mount has addressed an open letter to Indiana farmers calling attention to the recent supreme court decision denying- the right of the state board of tax commissioners to list paid-up and non-for- fi'itable life Insurance policies for taxation. The governor says the amount or life insurance carried in Indiana is about that It is manifestly unjust to laboring men and farmers and all others who are trying to pay Mortgages on their homes, to list food and clothing for taxation while men carry thousands of dollars of life insurance escape, and that, while the iieople will submit to'the decision of the courts, they will feel aggrieved at the Injustice done them. He declares that $5,000.000 19 annually paid in premiums on life insurance, and is thus taken out of the way of taxation, and adds there is no more reason for the assumption that taxing uuch policies at their value will destroy life insurance than that taxing farm products at their value will destroy agriculture.

But when she is again at liberty it is safe to assert that she will not have to go to a manager and submit to having her voice tried as preliminary to getting an engagement. Albert Chevalier, tbe famous singer of coster songs, has never been noted as a Bpendthrilt, and he is therefore not particularly popular with the handshakers along the Rial to, who have no use for a fellow who has sense enough to save his monev while he is able to earn lots of it.

If is to have a long New York run, it would appear that it will have to be made fact thiic while nQc a regular actor be made a ie hits which are so pronounced that genuineness cannot be called into few and far between. The so called theatrical trust has been accused of many iniquities, but none more serious than that it was organized lor the purpose of so controlling the market, as it were that local managers would not be in a position to protest effectively against the misrepresentation of the New York producers with reference to "original New York There is undoubtedly a tendency so misstate the length of run this city and to create the impression that the players on the road are the same ones who participated in the metropolitan run. Still that wzis done long before a theatrical trust was ever thought of. Tie disinclination of people in the smaller cities to patronize tbe attractions which visit them until opportunity has been given to gauge their value through the medium of newspaper criticisms is growing alarmingly. It may be due in a measure to tbe tiller liULi a pretty good showing, and then he proceeded to regret that he had not earlier devoted his attention to "playing parts." Chevalier informed tbe gentleman througn the columns of a rival newspaper that he did not begin to sing coster songs until after he had been a legitimate actor for many Tears, and as a sort of clincher quoted the fault finding critic, who had warmly praised his work in one of the principal characters of a standard comedy nearly a decade earlier.

Topping, sclaffing, slicing and pulling, that quartet of dire faults, are all said to be impossible under this system. The best teachers of golf advise beginners to use limited number of clubs. 10 allow a novice to play over a course using all the clubs that an expert would employ is to handicap him so heavily as to render consistent progress almost impossible Moreover, he is apt to become disgusted with his weary tramp over ground beset with difficulties, which to his unskillful hand seem well nigh insurmountable and in the playing of which a hundred clubs would offer no suggestions.

A complete outfit of clubs is apt to develop a ragged and inconsistent style, coupled with habits of form that are seldom eradicated later, and a bewildered inconsistency as to which club should be used at the various pointe of tbe game. It is better to start with toe. few clubs than never to learn the correct; use of any. Let the beginner confine him self to the brassie, cleek and iron, and he will accomplish moie than if he had a club for every emergency of tho links. These three clubs will teach him all that is necessary during the preliminary weeks of his practice, and when mere proficiency is acquired others may be added as circumstance requires.
