From Town Topics
The Boston Artiste' Festival this year
did not come in for as big a share of
fashionable attention as it generally
does, for it occurred in the dead vast
and middle horse show week; but Mrs.
Jack" Gardner.Mrs. Montgomery Sears
and Mrs. William P. Apthorp were
among the few that were loyal enough
to its interests to leave their boxes early
Wednesday night in time to appear at
the Grundmaun studio6 just before mid
night and see and be a piece of "The
Arabian Nights." Mrs. Scara'-get up''
had one peculiarity to which she held
the exclusive right. She wore through
her nose, or apparently so, a genuine
jeweled nose-ring, and she wore it with
aa much unconcern bb it it had been her
hrbit to have it there. Oddly enough
it was rather becoming. Her coetume of
an Indian princess was silvery gauze and
embroidered satin, with pearls upon
pearls, and more pearls besides. Mrs
Apthorp, all in Huffy white and peacock's
feathers, was gorgeous as to fabric and
coloring.
Mrs. Jack Gardner, however, outshone
everything and everybody, and at her
grand entree Bhe fairly stopped one's
heartbeats. She was arrayed in a cos
tume which she brought from Egypt.
It was supposed to be the togs of a
Nautch girl. As to body, she was tightly
swathed round and round with layers of
gauze, gold embroidered; a broad band
of the same, heavy with Brazilian bee
tles' wings, made the bodice, and her
f amouB diamond-and-ruby necklace, with
her ropes of diamonds, bound her throat.
But it was upon her head that the eyes
of the Oriental multitude were fastened
with breathless admiration and awe.
Everything was covered but her eyes
which made it, as some facetious person
remarked, "such an awfully becoming
headgearr Her chin was swathed in
soft mull as tight as a bandage; two big
diamond balls held strings of jewels,
with a pendant in the centre, which
hung just above her nose, fiom which
fell long strips of embroidered gauze ou
each side to the ground. Directly across
the face were strung lines upon lines of
Oriental stones. The arms were covered
with old pieces of jewels and her bare
hands with a lot of queer rings of Orien
tal device. It was really a wondrously
artistic costume, and one which probably
no one else could manage to achieve
with like effect orcould wear so well.
Anthony Hope and beautiful Evelyn
,Millard are not going to be married.
The lady fell off a bicycle and scratched
her nose. The latter is not given as a
reason for the former but the two items
come together.
Mr. Irving and Miss Terry are in Bos
ton. Great excitement, especially on
Tuesday night. Mr. Irving loves Bos
ton, and never, until last Tuesday night,
had he consented to produce "Macbeth"'
there. But the paople yelled for it. He
had to give it. In the Tremont theatre
that night no man was admitted who
could not show at least three quarteringfe
in the Harvard Quinquennial Catalogue,
I have lived long and seen little, as the
Psalmist did not say, but seldom have I
seen anything equal to that audience.
It was "great," and its efforts to under
stand Mr. Irving reminded me of pre
vious trimountain efforts to understand
Bernhardt and Duse; only the Tuesday
night effort was biiJer. It ever the
ghosts in the Old Granary squeaked and
giblered: if ever the Mimes and Fafners
of the Subway howled and growled and
chortled, it was that night; and the
whole collection, and all the asthma and
vocal appendicitis in the world were in
Henry's lungs, throat, cords and things.
Was the house happy? Well can a bean
bake?
General Miles evidently has a strong
political backing, which he has organ
ized very adroitly. Ten years ago I
heard him, in the lobby of the Ebbitt
house, at Washington, address a throng
of newspaper correspondents and telling
them how he was beset by the jealousy
of the regular officers that is, the West
Point graduates how he was kept down
because that privileged class always
combined against an outsider. The im
pression he sought to make was that he
was infinitely the superior of any officer
then living tnough Sherman and Sher
idan were still on deck, to say nothing
of Schofield and others and that he
was kept down by the malignant envy
of the professional soldier. I must say
that I emerged from that experience
with a great many misgivings, which I
had not before entertained, as to Gen
eral Miles' real qualifications as a
soldier. I recognized particularly his
talents as a politician and a stump
orator.
Miss Morton, a sister of the secre
tary of agriculture, Is president of a
new movement at Washington, which
intends to secure the abolition of Sab
bath receptions. A large number of
the wires and daughters of the cabinet
and of judges, senators and others are
members.

of symptoms by which consumption can
certainly be detected:
Cough, one or two slight efforts on
rising, occurring during: the day and fre
quently during the night
Short breathing after exertion.
Tightness of tht chest.
Quick pulse, especially noticeable in tbt
evening and after a fuH meal.
, Chilliness in the evening, followed by
Slight fever.
Perspiration toward morning and
Vale fact and languid in the morning:
Loss of vitality.
If you have these symptoms, or any of
them, do not delay. There are many
preparations which claim to be cures, but
r. Han't Btmtf for Consumption
has the highest endorsements, and ha.
stood the test of years. It will arrest con
sumption in its earlier stages, and drive
away the symptoms named. It b manu
factured by the Acker Medicine Co., 16
and 18 Chambers St, New York, and sold
by all reputable druggists.

Nothing Too Good for Bud
It ib now generally believed that Bud
Lindsey will be a candidate for tho Lin
coln poetoffice, and he should have it. A
man who 1b as shrewd a worker in poli
tics as Lindsey is and one whom Lan
caster county loves so well, should have
it if lie wants it. And the Sun predicts
that if he goes after it he will get it.
There's nothing too good for Bud in
Lincoln. Sterling Sun.
