An in Hug-. hind, tlm best of parent take their children by mill ions to witness tli 'Christmas pnuto mimes, which nru nlmply elrtbointed blll-- le.sque, In which there are hundred of women in tights an cdtnpniud to the number wo usually see, so hero the notion that there is anything particularly Indecent In n worn ail's wearing u burlesque costunio has dlfJip- iH'ared, It Isan open kccrettliat society people me taking to tights, Sooresof young ladles wear them. They nre now claod as an ordinary article of underwear, and are rapidly super sedlng.stocklugti, skirU and other Miporlluous underwear on account of comfort, healthful ness, economy ami stylo. They uro specially adapted for evening coxtuniw nnd for the clinging draper' tluit is so much in vogue among dressy people. Ten years ago tights, , except of tlio coarer kind, wta-o not made in this country at all. They had to Iki all Im , ported, and were a good deal more expensive than now. Not ttiut good tihtM will ever be .cheap. They have to foe made so carefully and wltU such rt-ganl to proportions, that nuything like u mistake in the weaving of them U attcndetl witlinjod deal of Joss. The tight us nu article of theatrical llngarW is the tight of which the public is mostly con cerned. Now and then one hears of an uc ,tress refusing to wear tights any more, but that Is a result, not of any particular regard for decency, but out of rvgard for health. The theatrical people wear tights not as ordi nary ami comfortable apparel, but as nu ex tremely, torturous necessity. Ah worn by professional jeoplu it ultimately means phys icul .collapse, Ik'ciuimj of the means employed to keep them properly drawn and wriukleless. There ,liave been all sorts of devicesemployuU to ejfuct this, but after all it comes down ,to tbo ono ofvwearing an exceedingly tight belt, drawn .so tight thojt no tight lacing could cqinruu'oto It. Three Jinds of tights nre employed on the stage cotton, wool nnd silk. The cotton ones are hardly worth the buying. They look just wliat they are cheap and shabby and are only worn in spectacles like "Zo-Zo," "Tho Twelve Tomptatioiu," and other affairs that make a grent parade on very little mon ey. Woolen tights are, however, extensively uted. They look and last well, nnd are only poor by comparison with a pair of silk tights next to tluin! Home managers, to avoid this .very coutrnst, employ woolen tlghtsentirely, both for principals and small copIu. Othei-tT, fov the sumo reason, buy the dearer kind In silk. If properly tukejuare of, which is Very seldom the cate, tigUU should last four .months. But the girls who are employed, and who nre usually furnished with their tights by the management, .do not much care oiut way or the other, midoin a burlesque or comic opera company this -becomes one of the most expenslvo items of Uv) theater. The New York Casino, for Instance, spends from 8,000 to 110,000 a year In this ojio commod ity, jn spite of the fact that Albert Aronsou Is a yery close buyer, and Ijy paying cash gets them nt tho very lowest market price. Jul wurd K. Illco Is tue most exjienslvo buy er. Recently he clothed an entire chorus with variegated silk tights at fi u pair. An other manager would proluibly have been satUfled with an article costing ?(! or fS. Rice, however, argues that in iostgsfjjg a beautiful urtiele like this the girls are nee es sorily more careful and can be more easily ditcipllufd for misuse of them. Three or tour factories have grown up within tho past six years in and nrbund New York, the busi ness of which is largely in making tights. Silk ones are made exclusively for the stage. Cotton ones are oftou employed in masked balls, parades and in celebrations of various sorts. Tho business appears to be a profitable one, and theatrical orders nre eagerly sought for. TONIOHT Pete Raker,lato of Baker& Furroii,wlll pre sent "Chris nnd Lena" ut the Funko this even ing with a strong company of artists. Among them are JosieBisslon, the well known singing Miubrette 'ate of Little Nuggctt company, and John Shcelinu, late of Bheehau & Coyne, thojunniest of all Irish co medium, and Little Irene, a little "tot" of four years who sings nnd dances throughout the play, which will be his greatest success. "Chris nnd Lenu," in a play that has met with the approbation of the people wherever the English language is spoken, , This will Im the farewell engage ment of the "Chris and Lena," as "I'eto" has two new plays for next sfiiaou, and as he plays all summer en route to Han Francisco, our city will not Fee his geiiiul face after the close of this c ugogement.

Tlio ntmos pliero is thick with the chatter of disengaged soubrettes, though it Is occasionally vlvllled by tho suliuo utteuuices of returned comedi ans. Tlie soubrette is going away for the summer, don't you know, nnd wants her en gagement early, so that hor dear little mind cun bo perfectly ntense.; the returned comedi an, who doesn't id ways possess a mind to trnniulllxe, wants to sign boforo the foliage begins to nutuumnllze. The past season is al ready dead and buried. Soubrettes anil com edians seem anxious that the Interment should be absolute. It has been a pretty bad ono for them, with plenty of rnnla and very little glory. It is astonirhlug how amiably t hoy take their razzle, poor souls I They can meet the manager who deluded Jhem with a cheerful grin like that In which the hero of Roslnl Yokes' song Indulged. They uro rarely Indelicate enough to suggest h payment, probably because they know tho futility of sucli u ropiest. In fact they will go with him again next season if nothing better turns up. It Is this "bettor ' for which they aro seeking. It Is this search which makes I) road way so summery.

Several months ago I told them how klrd my old frhsnd, P.T.,wasln keeping me (tostisl by rending mo mm ked copies of the 'English pa vers with their glowing Ivtl VyVPar oyscripiious oi mo earth Not ninny men as busy ns Mr llarnuin was would have thought ofn friend four unlive thous and miles away, nnd much less woulil they have stopped to mark and wrap nnd stamp nnd innil paors as he did. Hut P T. llar nuin is not one of your ordinary milk nnd water friends. Ho Is a friend Indeed, nnd my need (his season Is about Mfty dolluts. When he comes 1 shall tnko him In, ns friends often do. V Out In front of tho Capital hotel last Tues day 1 ran up against another Mend, Charles Stow, the editor of Itanium's circus. 1)1 1 you never know that n circus had nu edltorf Why, bless you! ho is one of the most lm IHirtunt cog-wheels in the whole machine How do you suppose n circus gets all its post em with their gorgeous adjectives and start ling exclamation points Do you imiigin the advance circulars and the seductive newspaper notice growf Far from It, They are the product of tho brain of a bright, ener getic man, who generally seiids nil winter preparing the gospel truths to be displayed on tue barns of tho laud through the summer, Tiioedltor of Illinium's circus is Charles Stow, mil ho is at the head of the profession. The milk of human kindness hns nut Iwcu frozen in his veins or turned to gall, and he Is ono of the most genial of companions. The last time I saw Stow was in Iowa about live years ago, nnd then his unique experience in Dnkota furnished mo n column,. Having seen much of the world mid taken a broad view of things he IsSnuch of n cosmopolitan, Our conversation the other day ranged from circus to salvation, from the Prince of Wales' ilunkeyto Gisl almighty pardon the jux taiKNitUm. Mr. Stow doesn't like England or tho English. During three months sK-ut In London there was not one bright day. They use soft coal over there for heating, nnd llarnuin had to send to America to get stoves largo enough to heat the big looms at Olym pla, where the circus exhibited, The Eng lish impressed Mr. Stow's democratic Ameri can pvrceptluns us a grand nggregatiou of snobs and lluukeys. A sysU'lii of caste has fixed tho rank of the different classes of peo ple. Every man cringes to the fellow above him nml kicks tho poor devil below. This sort of thing tilled Mr. Stow's free born American spirit with indignation, One day another representative of tho circus was showing tho Duke of Cnmhri.lge and n party through tho establishment. Tho duke is u ou of tlio queen nnd mi lniiorUiiit milltniy commander, nnd the circus man went nliout hi his presence hat in hand until Stow culled him aside and ordered him not to play the obsequious llunkey The duke nnd his com puuions wore their huts, nnd their guide wns told to do likewise. Ho probably got n lesson in Amorlcnu dignity. In emphatic United States language, that he will remember. My friend llruiiiu,il nmtold, carried hlm tlf with admirable tact. His native Yankee shrewdness took him through social shoals where many another man has been wrecked. He took tho attentions of the bloody Hrltlsh ers us n matter of :ourc. He let them wine him nnd dine him and make n parlor linn of him, and when tly ilocked to his show ho cheerfully took In their shillings. Thut's where Iiuffalo Hill made a mistuko. He thought he was being ntei tallied as u gentle man Instead of a curiosity. Whon ho under took to return the hasjltn!lty of tho Hrltlsh nobles tho snobs turned up their noses nnd stayed away a great ninny of them. One thing that impressed me In looking over the London (Miners was tho number of editorial and sembeditorlul articles ubout Uurnuiii und thu only greidesi. I uskedHtow ubout It. Ho assured me that none of them were paid for, and I have no reuson to doubt him. TheEnglhh edltois wroto nliout Hur nuiii and his circus nnd his advertising bc cirhio they were novel, something altogether different from their English prototyjies, nnd the editors were moved by the sense of novel ty to venture profound opinions on the American way of doing things. When Hnrnuni begnn talking uoout going over to England to show our cousins n circus as Is. a circus, friends enmo to give him advice us friends will, you kuow, tho world over, particularly If they have nothing else to give. Among other things thoy assured him it would never do to advertise his ciicus as In America, it wns all well'enough tocover the hill boards nnd uuwspaKrs of thls'coun try with long processions of high sounding adjectives, because Americans had learned to discount that sort of thing f0 to ".'i (tor cent., but old, beef-eutlug John Hull, they argued, wns too sober nnd matter-of-fact to digest suchsUiir und would' stay away from the show In jilieer disgust and distrust. These knowMl-all friends uctually onvlncediny friend Itanium, us long ns he had been in tho business, and he tent word to Mr. Stow to take a new tack and tamo his surlntlve. Mr. Stow did not agree with tho volunteer udvlsers and he nrgued the matter with P. T, He held that Buperlutlves were Justilled, be cause the show surpassed everything else of the kind. He argued that the show was go ing nbrood ns a distinctively American Insti M-, im tuffim VI "L "Hs tution, nnd to change its style or udvertlslng would Ik to drop one of lis chnrncterlstia fen Mich. Of course he nrguisl the iiintlcr with moie ability ami nt gi eater length than 1 have state I It, mid Mr llarnuin concluded to let him go ahead on the old lines One of the giealest hits Illinium's circus limits In England wns by Its u.lvei Using. Its glow lug descriptions took John Hull by sur prise. The wealth of the English language In adjectives wns a new discovery. The prom ises of the show bills seemed to be extinvn gmit. The advertising iniido u sensation. It set the people to talking. The newspapers took the cue und dellvcrisl themselves of lourne.; disquisitions on the latest sensation. It became the talk of the clubs. The pncrs chnllenged Mr, Stow' use of the queen's I'.ugiisti, nnd tue club men laid wnueis to de cide the correct or Incornsit use of certain terms. The pners sent renters to Inter view Mr. Stow, but ho would not peep. Ho wns only nu agent of Ilnrnum's, with no per sonal prMo to bolster up, und so long ns his chief was getting thousands of dollars of tlio best kind of advertising without cost he was satisfied to stand In the background. When the pros.r time camo ho sent for a bright English reporter, who had been on n l'lilla 'delphlu paper and understood American ways. Stow allowed himself to bo Inter viewed and, among other things, ho chal lenged the whole Hrltlsh nation to Unci In his advertising inattor an adjective that was not in common use or to llud a manufactured word. The challenge was addressed pm tlcu larlytotho Savage club, whose members had been making wagerson those very points, Nobody met the challenge, und John Hull went to the circus by the hundred thousand, to llud out what the fuss wns ubout. It wns a triumph for Mr. Stow, although ho has loo much modesty und good sense to mnku any IiIjw ubout It. ' Mr. Stow's home is at Girard. neur Erie. Pa, The energy and force of character of the man may be Inferred fiom this fact. Years ngo he 'run n country weekly ut 01 rurd, a town ofulsnil 1000 people. He hud u cli dilution of tt,'M), und sold more papers In Erie than iiny weekly published In that city. His sympathies me warm nnd active for nenspiqier men. He holds that newspapers do more for their communities, lift more men from ohscuiit than any other agency hi America, ami he thinks they get. less pay for tiieir efforts than any other class of men. When ho ran a paper his ediiorlul page was Independent and not for sale, but If the poll ticiuns wanted any announcements made tliey paid for thoni. The piqwi' was a power und made money. Stow was a fellow student of President Cleveland and on terms of Inti macy. Uno of bis first nets nfter Cleveland's election wns to write a letter to "FWeuil drover" urging him to give nowspaiier men olllces whenever cpjioitunlty offered, thereby rewarding pust services and building up a strong party press for the futiite. Mr. Cloveland admitted tho force of the argils ment. Sir. Stow got Into the show- business through Dun Rice, und bus now been ut it for mnnyyenrs. Ho dislikes thu duty of writ ing show uds. but accepts Itu ono of the dis agreeable things that must bo done. Although In the prime of life ho Is proluibly tho oldest man In tlio country In his Hue of work, and he is so full of reminiscences It is a genuine pleasure to meet him, The gentlemen who proiosd to vote j?'0, 000 to the Rock Island have not yet explained what tho city is to get for It. It is time enough to talk of giving u way fV),(HJ0 M ,t. tle Rock Island demands it. No such demand has lieen made. No promises have been innde. Thoro Is no assurance but hearsay that Lin coln will get anything for Its money Tim CowilKll mistake tlio temKr of the jko plo of Lincoln If they voto nw ny $.10,000 with out iiny mqro dellnlto information than they have been vouchsafed up to this time. Of making fakes there Is no end. The lat est Is that do vernor Thayer hits been ier sunded to withdraw from the gubernatorial race by a promlsu of a government olllce. The governor ibmies the yarn emphatically, and tho gentlemen who hive declined Mr. Thuyern political corpse nro likely to find him ii lively one It seems abs dutely certain tluit tho census Is lielng taken imperfectly, nnd It Is likely many people will bo overlooked. Supervisor Cook will.glve his enumerators two or three dnysiiext week, nnd tlint will lie the last chance for Lincoln to get In n full count. If persons who have been overlooked will send n jKMtal card notice to 'Thomas Cook, cen sus suiwrvlsor, city," ho will see that an enumerator got them on the list. Persons knowing of friends out of town may do like wise. Croquet Sets at a I titrjful n. The dreatTen Cent Store has n largo va riety of Croquet sets that they nro closing out at bargain prices.
