WEEKLY Nosw’ALK ~ Gum-Ts j AMUSEME’NTS. World of Novelties. Despite the “Klondike fever” that has seized so many of us, there are still remaining enough “stay-at-homes” to have made the theatrical season thus far this year, very good financially, even beyond expectations. Vaude- ville is the‘ d”, and the leaders in that branch the theatrical busmess are faring the best. Gus Hill’s World of Novelties has had big business everywhere this season, and giving a performance that contains more new features than ever before during fif- teen years experience.

Sweet lnniscarra. “Sweet Inniscara’? is the pretty title that Augustus Pitou has given to his new play written by him for his star, Chauncey Olcott, which will be given at Hoyt’s Theatre, Wednesday, Septem- ber 8th. It is a strong romantic Irish drama, and the author has chosen the year 1812 for the period of his play. This gives an excellent opportunity for beautiful costumes, for dress of that time was most picturesque. As the hero, Mr. Olcott, will be seen at his best, his handsome face and figure making “Gerald O’Carroll” most pic- turesque and he will sing several _new songs written and composedby him for this play. A Night at Steve Brodie’s. One of the most clever actors of to-day is Steve Brodie in “ A night at Steve Brodie’s, ” which will be seen at Hoyt’s Theatre on Monday night, in conjunc- tion with a strong vaudeville organiza- tion, “The New York Stars,” the mem- bers of which are well known to the theatres of most large cities. Brodie will introduce real character life as seen any day in his Bowery saloon, the Mecca for cosmopolitans, east-siders, sight-seekers,journalists and caracatur- ists. “Never Again.” ‘Save all your brightest smiles for “ Never Again,” the opening play at Hoyt’s Theatre, Saturday, September 4. It is the sauciest, neatest, bravest and most captivating bunch of fun ever transported from Paris. There is all the mental rest necessary to a vacation, and all the brisk tonic of a mint julip in this riot of laughter. The company . is one of the very best ever gathered together for the illustration of the far- cical side of life. —-—-———‘O.-O.—-—-— DARIEN.

The patience of women with chil- dren is an ever-increasing cause for; wonder among bachelors. The golden rod is being used exten- sively by florists in table decmations for September luncheon and dinner parties. ' No matter how grown up we are: there are times when homesickness and ' a longing for a mother’s love make children of us again. « Furniture sales reveal the fact that folding-beds can be bought at purely nominal prices, their disposition to shut up (unlike that of the fair sex) causing them to depreciate in value. ...~... .. ..-_ The persons who have treated others the worst generally shed the greatest number of tears at their funerals. Some afternoon tea-tables are genu- ine records of small. thefts, the mania for collecting souvenir spoons from yachts, hotels and dining cars being responsible for the heterogeneous as semblage of ill-gotten mementoes of the summer outing. Why does the conductor always col- lect the fare from the side of the open car that needs the greatest amount of reaching from the passenger to hand it to him ? The English women may have lovely complexions, but their use of false hair is anything but adorable from an Amer- ican standpoint. Sunday schools will soon pick up in attendance, but it is not until just be- fore Christmas time that the growth will be particularly marked. The frankly selfish person is tremen- dously preferable to the self eifacing saint who doesn’t mean one-half of the offensive self-denial he or she displays. N o matter how perfectly healthy you may feel, if you meet a person who declares that you are not looking well you at once imagine that there are symptoms in your possession indicating a serious illness. It is reported that a young woman bicyclist wearing a celluloid collar was Seriously burned owing to its igniting from the cigarette of her escort. Of course the matter could be explained if they were riding a tandem, but otherwise it gives rise to questions tha. the pair might find it difficult to an swer. - A new Laboratory For smith College.

It has the following ad- vantages: . While punctures in it can be re paired with plugs, or semi-liquid in- jections, as well as in any other single-tube tire, it can be permanent!) repaired by using the quick-repair strip inside the tire. See out No. 1. 6 By injecting M. & W. quick-repai: cement through the puncture, and then pressing down on the tire with the thumb. as in cut No. 2, the repair ' No. 2. strip inside is picked up by the cement, thus closing the puncture, as in cut No. 3. _ - The Morgan & Wright single-tn quick-repair tire is guaranteed not porous. This is on account of the way in which it is made. Nearly every rider has heard of tires that “leak like a sieve.” Many tires rot, because water gets into the fabric between the two layers of rubber. The Morgan & Wright fabric is proof against moisture. Everybody knows how comfortable Morgan 82 Wright tires are, and yet how seldom they puncture. This is due to the fabric. Ask any bicycle dealer whether other ltires last as long as Morgan & Wright tires. Ask, also, ‘what the Morgan 8:. Wright guarantee means. Morgan & Wright tires are repaired free of charge, at the factory in Chicago or at any of the Morgan & Wright free repair shops, located in ‘-he principal cities. N. B.—When you have a. puncture. get right off. Riding a tire flat, when it has. a tack or nail in it, may ’amage it considerably. vmv vv vvvvvv‘vmv ‘ l ' , .
