THIS BIG SWISS SLEEPING DOLL WITH FURNITURE YVINIFRDD MBLVIL.L.E SHAW, girl who has written a sonnet to Maxine Elliott. TO MAXINE ELLIOTT KB POETIA Fnir daughter of the Pine Tree State, Whence many an uncrowned potentate And famiHis statesman spning, Thy matchless face and form present A plea nioro deeply elonucnt Tlmn f.ulls from any tongue. The language of thv gleaming eyes From bar and bench alike Adverse adjudication; For advocates and gaze Upon thy features in a iimze Of helpless adoration. Thus though a man might guilty be, If for counsel he had thee, Well might he be reliant! Thv loveliness would win offhand From any jury In A verdict for thy client. MelvlUe Shaw.

Rockland, Me. An eloquent tribute to the beauty ha.s been recently paid In a sonnet axJdressed Maxine Elliott as This tribute comes from a towns- womian of Mrs. Goodwin, Miss Winifred Melvllld Shaw of Rockland, herself a young and beautiful girl, who Is fast making a name for herself in tho world of music and letters. Some of her songs have been lately sung at private concerts given at the Waldorf In New York, and the literary critics in that city and this are beginning to ask about the new author whose writings are Just now exciting general attention. Nature was lavish in her gifts to Miss Shaw, for she Is also clever with her pencil, having done bits of decorative and advertising art and cover designing, while from time to time her drawings have appeared In the Art Interchange.

Her father is the Rev. Melville Shaw, a Baptist clergyman, and her mother, Mr.s. Carrie Burpee Shaw, a well-known musician and composer, having more than local fame as an organist of ability. She Is a niece of Mr. William P.

Burpee, a marine and landscape painter of this city. A graduate of Baron normal school of gymnastics, her splendid physique shows that her enthusiasm over physical culture is practical and complete. She has recently collaborated with Fred- erang In a unique art work for young people. She Is surely versatile, and with the nice adju.stment of vigor and tenderness with which all her writings are stamped, there seems to be a most brilliant future for the girl whom Rockland Is proud to claim.

POPULAR PLAYS FIFTY YEARS AGO Perhaps In no other feature of Boston life in the last BO years has there been a more marked evolution -than in her public entertainments.

In the early fifties the only playhouses of note were the old Natltnn.1 Theatre, the Boston Museum and the Howard Atheneum. There were two other theatres, of less Importance, eacn sltul3ited on Sudbury street, known as the American Theatre and Eagle Theatre. Nowadays. on the contrary, the visitor from abroad dieslres to Fpend. an evening behind the footllghtts and no definite plan as to which playhouse to go to, Is puzzled which to select.

For Boston now sports not less than some 15 theatres, counting vaudeville, to say nothing of other temples of amusement, and to the stranger looking over the announcements In the dally papers the problem grows even more complex. In the dark of the Civil War. w'hen anxiety and ibcreavemertt pem'aded the population, the theatrical end min- etrel business received a radical Impetus after from first stagnation- Besides the patronage of troops soon to go to the front, there was a not unnatural proneness of the relatives, connections and personal frtends of the soldier bo 5 to lighten up the menital gloom by a visit to the house of stage entertainment. its proprietors wlnrows of glittering use a figure of speech as applied to bank bills and fracrtJonail war-born currency aud new theatrical enterprises were Inaugurated, and In due course time the Boston (Museum, the Boston Theatre and the Howard Atheneum wore brooight Into competition with friendly rivals. And It gvHs without saying that the public taste has materially changed as to stage exhibitions in these 50 years.
