1 l'i \i\ i *yy* TT ij !&! &mjjqtHBa^^ 1 (By Nixola Greeley-Smith.) New York is to have a new Saloma and this timewhen Miss Mary Garden Makes her debut in the sensa tional Strauss opera next Januaryit will be a Salome on the half shell. "For," said Miss Garden when I asked her about it to-day in her apart ment at the Lorelei, at Fifty-sixth street and Park avenue, "my Salome will be completely clothed on one side and will give a partial effect of nudity on#the other. But she will not be nakeddear, me, no! Not for me' Nor will she have bare feetI think bare feet are disgustingUgh!" Miss Garden's expressive shudder was as Parisian as her speech which, though she was born in Scotland, is a polyglot affair, containing many more French than English words. "I conceive my Salome as very, very youngsixteen perhaps. She will be very, very thinlean as a flame." Miss Garden is, I think, a trifle stouter than she was last year, and .gazing at her mature loveliness I could not help wondering how she is going to make the weight for a Sa lome so leanbut I didn't dare ask. A Red-Haired Salome. ."Her hair will be red as carrots," continued the singer. "I have had a gorgeous red wig made for her. Would you like to see it? 'Louise!'" she called in rapid French to the maid who answered her ring, "bring the perruque of Salome!" While the wig was on its way I looked about Miss Garden's bedroom a pale-blue symphony, by the way, where we were chatting, and noted the numerous beautiful paintings of nude women, which adorn its wall. On one side of the prima donna's bed was hung the kneeling figure of an un draped young girl, called "The Cap- tive," while on the chiffonier near by stood a rather Gallic pictureof a phy- Rictan engaged in sounding the lungs of an attractive woman patient, prop ped up in bed. Ropes, chrysanthemums nnd or chids mingled their fragrance in the steam-heated air of the apartmjpnt house, containing both a tailor shop and a laundry, here the marvelous singer, whose voice brings her $1,500 a performance, will spend her time while in New York. Before the maid reappeared I asked Misr. Garden to let me see the cos tumo in which she is to dance Salome, if. indeed, it were visible to the naked eye. But she vowed she would not. Her Salome, it appeared, was to be veiled in mystery. lr noth-ng else. Glimpse of the Costume. But the maid had misunderstood her order, and now entered the doorway laden with a cloak of flame-colored silk, elaboi'ately embroidered in ara besques of vivid blue. Under it were many yards of thinnest .organdie, which I identified at once as the sev en veils. "Take that away. I said 'the wig,'" commanded Miss Garden quickly, and the Salome costume disappeared like a flash through the door. "Yes. that was my Salome cloak," admitted the singer. "I come on in it. When I begin the dance I take off my sandals, and' ,do you know, I re move the seven veils one by one. At the tearing off of the seventh veil there is a momentary effect of nudity. But it is an effect. I will wear flesh ings coming above my waist and made with toes Here Salome's wig was brought an incredibly red mop of rather short hair, which Miss Garden took and fingered longingly. "You see, it is made with a fringe what you call a bang," she explained, "and that will add to Salome's young look. All the women of that day dyed their hair to fantastic shades. I will Just Possible. We used to hear quite frequently Of the new woman bold, But the newness isn't mentioned now She must be getting old. Chicago News. Mrs. KnickerWhat is the matter?

HyerI call it either when it runs. When it doesn't I call it other things. nW^ 1 *vfyi^i^ Mary Garden Will Be a Salome on the Half Shell Clothing on One Side and a Suggestion of Nudity on the Other. "T^^^^"^ have the skirts very shortthey did not wear long skirts in those days and that will add to her youthful ap pearance. They will reach about to here," and the singer illustrated by raising her own black skirts a dis creet distance. "Will Be Incarnate Vice." "My Salome will be incarnate vice," she continued, "but she will have the unconscious vice of extreme youth. She will be free, careless, 'insouci- ante!' "She will ask for John the Baptist's head, because she realizes that it is the only way she can attain this man, whom she loves violently the moment she sees him. Of course, her trouble is cerebral in a measure. But she is a type of her time, when people lived according to their vices, shall I say? Arid now," concluded Miss Garden, "let me ask you a question: Of course, the production of 'Salome' is viewed properly here as an artistic event but why all this extraordinary interest so early?" I explained as briefly as I could about the "Salome" craze which has been so rampant in New York that a man when asked by a waiter the day after he had seen Gertrude Hoffman if he wished his potatoes with their jackets on, replied: "No, he wanted them nude." Then I learned from Miss Garden that Paris until recently has insisted upon having its dances with much more than their jackets off. Nude Dancing in Paris. "Until this year," she said, "many dancers have appeared absolutely nude in the vaudeville houses in Pa ris. I think the most beautiful thing I ever saw was a young girl of about seventeen who danced with nothing on but the narrowest piece of gold net with meshes about her. She was perfectly formed, and her dance didn't shock me a bit. And looking about the house I could see none of that screwing up of opera glasses that marks a disgusting performance. But they have stopped these things in Paris now, and, of course, America would never tolerate themnot in a thousand years." Isle of Wight. The Isle of Wight inhabitants are not alone in speaking of "going to England" when they leave their own fragment of the kingdom. Apatriotic Cornishman also "goes to England" when he crosses the Tamar. Similar ly, inhabitants of the Balkan peninsu la talk of "going to Europe" when they leave their own corner of the continent in curious contrast with the people of Great Britain. They re gard themselves as both of and in "Europe," and accordingly it is only "the continent" that they visit. The record in the splendid isolation line is probably'held by that minister of the Cumbraes, in the Clyde, who prayed for a blessing upon "the inhabitants of Great and Little Cumbrae and the adjacent islands of Great Britain and Ireland." The Simplest Method. While building a house Senator Piatt of Connecticut had occasion to employ a carpenter. One of the ap plicants was a plain Connecticut Yan kee, without any frills. "You thoroughly understand car pentry?" asked the senator. "Yes, sir." "You can make doors,- windows and blinds?" "Oh, yes, sir!" "How would you make a Venetian blind?" The man scratched his head and thought deeply for a few seconds. "I should think, sir," he said finally, "about the best way would be to punch him in the eye."
