The guests were a group of young women who have been connected with Miss Dins more in the Kindergarten association work, and the affair was charmingly appointed red.

MISS ANGELL'S RECITAL One of the really good things of the season was the piano recital of Miss Mary Angell of Chicago, who appeared last evening at the auditorium of the Johnson School of Music, Oratory and Dramatic Art, the recital being ten dered the students of the school by Mr. Johnson. Miss Angell is an attractive type of young womanhood, reminding one involuntarily of Fannie Bloomfield Zeisler, and her playing was somewhat similar in style. The characteristics of Miss Angell's playing may be summed up in a sur prising "strength, which at times, espe cially in the concertstuecke, was often tremendous a fine and smooth technique that was remarkably good her runs and octave work and a temperament which seemed to run to the intellectual rather than the emotional. Her tone was big and full, and in the Liszt Campanella'' she did some of the best work of the evening. In the Schubert Taussig "Marche Militaire," played as an encore, Miss Angell was very effec tive. The Debussy numbers were novel and interesting, especially the "Gar den in the Rain whose dainty delica cy was beautifully depicted. The Cho pin numbers, which occupied the first part of the program, were not given an especially distinctive reading. There was a large and enthusiastic aud'ence, and Miss Angell was the re cipient of much very sincere applause. The big headliner bill at the Unique this week, every act coming in for stellar recognition, will be continued until Mon day afternoon. The big acts are pre sented by the Rialto Comedy four, Ted E Box, May Neilson, Glllihan and Broche, and Frank Burt.

DONALDSO C0.,Dmg Dept Metropolitan Eeal blackface minstrelsy has never lost its hold on the affections of .thea tergoers, and the coming of Have$v's Mastodon minstrels is awaited with pleasurable anticipation. There are many so-called minstrel shows on the road this season, but only one which faithfully adheres to the minstrel text. That show is Haverly's Mastodons, and in this show no white laces are allowed to mar the study in black, all of the performers being made up in the real "kinky woo l" order. This big min strel company comes to the Metropoli tan tomorrow night for half a week, fresh from its triumphs in the larger eastern cities, where they have plaved to record-breaking business. The east ern press, without exception, heartily praised the performance, and the pat rons of the Metropolitan may expect an artistic entertainment, with as much mirth, music and melody as in any of the latest comic operas or musical ex travaganzas. Billv Beard, the minstrel man, who is the star comedian, has many rivals, and a host of imitators, but with his originality and by keeping abreast of the times, has maintained his position in the foremost rank of minstrelsy. His monolog this season is described as unique, while his songs and parodies are up-to-the-minute. tThe assisting fun-makers are Al Plain, Perron Som ers, Billy Pearl and Herman Marion. The vocal soloists are said to be the strongest brought together in years and include George T. Martin, Bruce Wai man, W. H. Parkerson, W. A. Wolfe and Richard Harter. This company has a reputation for carrving the finest band and orchestra in minstrelsy, and is under the direction of Frank Fuhrer, the best of all minstrel bandmasters. He has won much distinction in musi cal ciicles as a composer and director. Laughter is in vogue wherever The County Chairman'" is given. George Ade has caught and pictured with a facile pen the foibles of a country com manity and shed the gentle light of satire upon them. It is in his "types' that Ade is seen to advantage and "The County Chairman," which will be presented at the Metropolitan opera house three wights, beginning Thursday, Jan. 18, with Saturday matinee, abounds with them. Characters from everyday life and those we know from association are vividly drawn with just enough of caricature to make them' stand out boldly from the can vas. Here we have the bluff, rugged personality of Jim Hackler, the county chairman. He is an easy-going, open hearted spender, but one whose every energy is aroused when upon a set pur pose. The sort of man who would stay up all night to defeat an enemy. Jim Haekler is a curious composite of easy good heartedness, sentiment and fierce hat J. The village ne'er-do-well, Sassafras Livingston, a "gentleman of color" with a large family and with a strong disinclination for work, is the Cause ot considerable merriment. He is de picted with strongly marked absurdi ties, and while the character often ap proaches the farcical, yet there are just such derelicts in every village com munity. Then there is the fat, sloth fuol of/ thee' energetic boarding housekeeper the elderly candidate for office, flhnthearted, bent of back and -tr nhusband d' ln?^X^*eS Houston of St. Paul a A gToup of young people had a jolly coasting party Thursday evening at Lake of the Isles.

Henry W. Savaceahas fhey given "The Chair- stage presentatioCounty of rare pic 1 torial excellence. The cast includes that fine character actor Theodore Babeoek, George Thatcher, Cyril Ray mond, R. J. Dillon, George R. Caine, Edward Gorman, James H. Bradbury, Charles Burke, Will Phillips, Ruby Bridges, Laura Ayres, Zenaide Williams and Florida Kingsley. The fiist act of "The Liberty Belles," which comes to the Metropol itan for half a week, beginning Sun day, Jan. 21, represents the dormitory of a female seminary, in which are discovered twenty young girls in all sorts of costumes, enjoying a midnight supper in the absenee of their teachers. The second act finds the "LiBerty Belles" conducting a cooking school, and in this act are introduced a num ber of novel and pleasing specialties by the forty people who compose the organization. The scene of the third act is in a Florida orange grove, where the fun increases after the manner of high-class eomedy until a rather un conventional denouement is reached. Two Minneapolis favorites, Eva Tay lor and Lawrence Grattan, are to ap pear at the Metropolitan forthreenighta and Saturday matinee, opening Thurs day, Jan. 25, in a dramatic production of "Parsifal." They will have the as sistance of an excellent company of forty persons. Bijou Hollis Cooley's production of Au ustus Thomas' successful comedy rama, "Arizona," comes to the Bijou for $. week's engagement commencing tomorrow afternoon at 2:30, which will include the regular Wednesday and Saturday matinee. This piece, which has been seen in all the large cities in the country, has made a pronounced success wherever presented and has established for itself a record second to none in the theatri cal world. Mr. Thomas has given to us in "Arizona" characters and inci dents entirely new to the American stage. The story in itself is of ab sorbing interest and holds one's closest attention. The opening scene takes place on the Canby ranch, situated in the midst of the beautiful Aravaipa valley in the state from which the ila derives its name. Henry Canby is father of two daughters, one of whom, Esi rella, is the wife of the colonel commanding the Eleventh United States cavalry, located at Fort Grant, about thirty miles distant from the ranch. The colonel, who is at least twenty years older than his wife, is madly in love with her, and is as ieal ous of her as he is of his life. Thru the machinations of a captain of his company with whom Estrella has ima gined herself in love, a young officer named Denton, who is a great favorite with the colonel, is placed in a very compromising position with the colonel^ wife. Bather than sacrifice her honor, he accepts the disgrace of being forced to esign from the army from here he returns to the ranch, there to be near his sweetheart, Bonita, the youn ger daughter of the ranchman. In the third act the, cavalry, who are on a forced march, stop at Canby's ranch for water. Here, during the meeting between Denton and this same captain in which Sergeant Kellar is present, the captain is shot by "Tony," a Mexican vaquero, who is in love with Lena, a German serving maid, whom the same captain has wronged the year previous. Denton is arrested and ac cused of the shooting, and is courtmar tialed for the same. During the trial the truth is told by the Mexican, who escapes with the aid of his cowboy friends this, of course, exonerates Den ton. The colonel finds out his misstake, forgives his wife and all ends happily. It is easily seen that there are great opportunities in the above for thbottle. thrilling situations and exciting epi sodes which Mr. Thomas has given us in "Arizona." Mr. Cobley has given to this1 produc tion the closest attention possible to every detail and has .secured for mem bers of the cast people of the highest Standing in their profession, and those who are especially adapted for the characters they assume. The company includes John Ferris, Clarence Heritage, Rapley Holmes, Edwin Farrell, Avis Lobdell, Lizzie McCall, Frances Des monde, Corinne Childs, Fulton Russell, Ray Scott, Ben Deane, William Mor gan, John Drury, Charles E. Graham, Edward Mulligan and Charles Avers. The same production will be seen nere that appeared at the New York Acade my of Music, and a feature of the per formance will be the use of fifty horses and cavalrymen from Fort Snelling. Lyceum Ralph Stuart, whose Spdendid suc cess in "By Right of Sword" at the Lyceum this week has been an event in the local theatrical world, will essay an other romantic role in the ambitious offering for next week, beginning with a matinee performance tomorrow after noon. The new play is "Prince Otto a brilliant dramatization of Robert Louis Stevenson's charming story, which in the light of the actor-author's dramatic genius, has become known as "the sweetest drama ever written." In this play, Mr. Stuart will be sup ported by Miss Henrietta Brown, his new leading lady, a young and beauti ful woman who has given much study to the difficult role of the charming Prin cess Seraphina, wife of the careless Prince Otto, who, despising the base in trigues of his court, forsakes it for the chase. Naturally, the cares of state fall heavily upon the shoulders of the princess, who is beset by scheming no bles headed by a villainous prime min ister. In two great scenes, one which pictures the aroused prince tearing the badge of treachery from the wretch's breastthe badge qf the revolutionists and another, where the princess is compelled to stab the same wretch in defense of her honor, two climaxes of great dramatic power are attained. The scene of the play is laid in the little principality of Kronef eld, and the time of the action and the costumes of the people taking part in its develop ment, afford splendid opportunities for scenic splendor and picturesqueness of costume. The result is many beautiful stage pictures. A charming love story threads the simple plot and all of the important members of the eompany are required in its proper unfolding. Orpheum- That the Orpheum theater proposes to maintain the strenuous self-set page for the new year is indicated by th.% array of talent it will offer its clientele for the week commencing with the matinee tomorrow. The oft-mooted question whether the unreasoning ani mals have the sense of tone or pitch has apparently been solved by Herr Luigi Rossi, whose marvelous musical horse, "Emir," plays on several espe cially constructed musical instruments in perfect time and tune. Herr and Frau Rossi are accomplished musicians and play accompaniments to the sole music by "Emir." The act was the sensation of the European music halls and the engagement in this country is limited. "For precision', alertness, dexterity in handling arms the Pekin Zouves are in a class by themselves,'' says the San Francisco Post, apropos of a recent en gagement of this crack military drill corps of the world at the San Francisco Orpheum. In addition to a new series of evolutions donfc with a snap and dash peculiar to thfe corps, the seven teen soldiers finMk with'the scaling of an 18-foot wal a^la aetion in seige service. J. '-FrSSfeSf Dootey, assisted by Dorothy Brenner and Ethel Rose, are down for a neat a'n novel dancing act called "The Clubman and the Dancing Girls," which has been well received in the other big vaudeville houses. All mention of minstrelsy includes the name of Arthur Deming? himself the head of many mammoth minstrel or ganizations. Deming is now doing a monolog in vaudeville and doing it well and promises to contribute largely to the success of the Orpheum's next bill. Lucy and Lucier, in an absurd concoc tion called A Fool's Errand," have been a pronounced success everywhere ah their verbal shaxpshooting as well as their singing and dancing is de scribed as the best ever. Making the banjo talk'' is the mis sion of Dane Claudius and Miss Melody Scarlet. Mr. Claudius was for two sea sons a feature with the Primrose & Dockstader minstrels and has success fully played every vaudeville circuit of the first-class in America. Miss Scar let, whose first name appears to be ap propriate, was formerly of the Froh man an'd Julius Kahn companies and is admitted to be the cleverest female banioist in the world. And, by way of cinching its hold on popularity for the coming week, the Orpheum will have Salerno as a ''holdover." Nothing like the juggling of Salerno has ever been seen here and nothing like it wil) ever be seen again. has been the talk of the town and for the second week will introduce many novelties heretofore kept up his sleeve. Mignonette Kolfin, the Hersky-Ber gere compan'y, James H. Cullen, Gallet ti's monkeys Klekko & Frayoli and Les Engelas will make their farewell appearance this evening. Unique The exceptionally clever bill at the Unique for next week, commencing with a matinee performance next Mon day afternoon, is strictly comedy vein from curtain to curtain. It will show new faces, new acts, one Euro pean novelty and a number of bright turns by well-known vaudeville artists who are booked for long engagements with the International Theatrical com pany, the corporation which dominates the field of popular-priced vaudeville and of which the Unique theater of this city forms an important link. The headliners in next week's bill are Lucados, novelty balancers, fresh from triumphant engagements in Europe. The Lucados balance and jug gle most everything that comes handy, chairs, tables, men, women, boys and girls, singly and in groups, and per form prodigious feats of strength in the course of their startling specialty. West and Benton, who are down for a singing and dancing act, have* won favor with eastern audiences and are expected to give a good account of themselves. The one sketch in the bill is fortunately in the capable hands of Love and Rollis, two clever legitimate players, who forsook the legitimate boards some two years ago to try their HOFF'S ASTHMA CURE The Genuine Hoff Medicine Price, 3 5 ?ts a bottle (full size).

Anderson's act is said to bo con ceived in a refined spirit, altho an ele ment of burlesque is inevitable in an impersonation of the kind. Dorotny Dane, the brilliant young vocalist, who embarked in vaudeville a short time ago, is one of the best young buds, according to the playbills. The Unique's young singers, Harold Beckrow and Herman LaFleur, will bo again in the bill with new illustrated songs. New motion-pictures of unusual interest are also promised. Dewey Probably no other city in the world is so noted for its beautiful women as Baltimore, and in selecting the young women who constitute the chorus for this season, his production, known as the Baltimore Beauties, T. W. Dinkins insisted that the attraction must live up to its title in every respect. On the strength of this decision only Balti moreans were engaged. Of course, it was no easy task to get together twenty young ladies to represent their native city, but after a diligent search amongst the leading musical comedies the cast was satisfactorylv completed and the patrons of the Dewey theater will have the opportunity of seeing this aggrega tion or pretty girls when the Baltimore Beauties company appears for a week's engagement, commencing tomorrow, in a two-act musical farce cpmedy, entitled A Scotch High Ball," presented by a company of well-known vaudevillans, including such popular favorites as Armstrong and Bertrand, Ruth Jordan, the statuesque blonde, and Edna Daven port, America's dancing marvel. Six special musical numbers have been ar ranged to show this excellent company to the greatest possible advantage. Great interest has been aroused in the atrical circles by the announcement that Miss Henriette Browne, leading woman with the Ralph Stuart stock company, will make her appearance tomorrow af ternoon. Miss Browne will be seen as the Princess Seraphina, in "Prince Otto," the play dramatized by* Otis Skinner from Robert Louis Stevenson's charming story. "By Right of Sword" will be pre sented for the last time tonight. BTONETT'S EXTRACT OF VANILLA prepared from selected Vanilla Beans, warranted. THE MESSIAH" "The Messiah" was given a very creditable presentation at Our Savior's Norwegian Lutheran church last eve ning by the choral society of that church under the direction of Jacob L. Hiort. The church was completely filled with an attentive and apprecia tive audience, but applause was omit ted in deference to the custom of the church. While the chorus numbered something less than 100 voices, it was adequate for all save the very heaviest choral numbers, notably the "Halleluiah" chorus. The voices are young and fresh and the parts well balanced. I is doubtful if there is another church choir in the city that could accomplish the work in so successful a manner. Miss Marie Hovey, who took the so prano role, has a sweet, fresh voice of good quality, but she was suffering from a cold last evening and could neither do herself nor her solos justice. Miss Eleanora Olson of Chicago was to have the' contralto role, but owing to a sud den illness, could not come. Her place was very satisfactorily taken at short notice by Miss Inez Marston. The He Was Despised" was especially well sung. Jacob L. H.iort took the tenor solos, and, barring the fact that he occasionally sang off the key, was very satisfactory. The solo honors of the evening went to Harry E. Phillips, who took the barytone numbers. His voice was full and clear and, with his wide range, he was amply able to do justice to his work. Eugen Skaaden, the organist of the church, accompanied''the work and was very satisfactory. The next choral work to be given by the society will be the "Eliiah," with Clara Williams. Clarance Marshall and J. L. Hiort as the soloists. It will be given April 19. $1000 REWARD Is offered as a guarantee that neither Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription HOB Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery contains alcohol, opium, or any harmful drug.
