coin bonds were sufficient. Judge
Holmes sustained this view insofar as
it referred to payment in gold, and

case may be appealed.
fuller of laugh than eve. Where U
old version was to a degree inconsistent
and faulty ia construction, the new
edition bat all tbce defect remedied,
and is now coherent and strong la dra
matic unity. Many new line and
bright scene have been interpolated,
and they are of strictly up-to-date
qualities. The old Sam'l was identified
with diamonds. The new one i of the
pink pearl, star, amethyst and pigeon
blood ruby variety. Miss Alblna De
Mer, the charming wife of M. B. Cur
tlss, wno essays her old role of "Cel
este" in the present cast, will wear
some beautiful gowns especially created
by Felix & Worth for this character.
Her display of jewelry will be magnifi
cent and will Include the famous
pigeon blood ruby. She will also wear
a necklace of steel white picked dia
monds, and a superb tiara of big pearls
and star amethysts. Mrs. Curtis
shares the honors with her husband,
and her rendition of "Celeste," the
French adventuress, Is unquestionably
one of the most artistic performances
on the stage of the present day. Mrs.
Curtiss is one of the bett dressers on
the stage. We can count upon our two
hands women of the stage who are
rightly entitled to the credit of being
appropriate dressers. There are many
who are stunning and chlo, but very
seldom do actresses as a class, impress
ua with the relationship existing be.
tween the verbal and textile appearing
of their roles. Mrs. Curtiss makes
study of the probable personal tastes of
the character of plays, and the result
ia that her dressing is a legitimate
scene lor a descriptive pencil. Her
jewels are also among the most costly
and famous in the profession.

AMUSEMENTS.
Ezra Kendall, the well-known co
median will open a four-night engage
ment at the Creighton Theatre, Sun
day night, May 24, presenting his
laughing success, "A Pair of Kids."
John Drew and his excellent com
pany, or wmcn Miss wauo. Aaams is
still the leading lady, will begin a
three-night engagement at the Creigh
ton Theatre next Thursday night, ap
pearing in one of hia new comedy suc
cesses, "Christopher jr." it was in
this play that Mr. Drew appeared for
20 weeks at Charles Frohman's Empire
Theatre, New York, to crowded houses,
the balance of his seven months' season
there the longest any star has yet
played in the metropolis being given
to R. C. Carton's comedy of married
woman's foolishness, "The Squire of
Dames." With this comedy, in which
Mr. Drew made a triumph, he will fol
low "Christopher Jr.," the story of
which may be briefly given as follows:
Christopher Sr. is a hard-hearted
man of business, and he wants his son,
who bears the same name, to be the
same kind of a man, but the young fel
low has no taste for business and pur
sues a course that brings about the
father's dislike. Not only that, but
he gets himself into a bad scrape.
Going to Trinidad once on a time, by
mistake he went to sleep In the upper
berth of a stateroom. Hearing a snore,
which he does not recognize as his own,
he awakes and discovers that a lady is
in the lower berth. He rushes out of
the room, but the lady's father is on
board; he does not kill Christopher,
but marries him to the daughter under
impossible circumstances, such that
neither party sees the other, and
Christopher signs the name of a friend
of his to the certificate. The two
never meet till three years later, when,
under assumed names, they fall in love,
and through a series of amusing com
plications, reaching a comedy climax
in the last act, discover their condition
and are happy. Christopher Sr., who
has filled his son's life full of hardships
ail the while, is won over in time to
bless the young couple and provide
handsomely for them.

Mr. M. B. Curtiss' "Sam'l of Posen,"
the drummer up-to-date, who will be
seen at Boyd's Theatre for three days,
beginning with a cheap price matinee
on to-morrow (Sunday) afternoon at
2:30, is virtually a new play, for while
the title is the same, the New Drummer
has been brought strictly abreast of the
times. Since his last appearance here
the play has' gone through a radical
reconstruction, both as to plot, dialogue
and situation. It Is now said to be
brighter and funnier than before, and !
