( Don’t I SKIP THESE LINES Jj/ just because its an adver tisement—a legitimate, honest advertisement deserves better treatment. Don’t sigh and say you take no stock in ad vertisements, you’d be mighty apt to use the same means if you had occasion for it, and what is more, await early re sponses and good results. Don’t close your eyes to the fact that an advertisement is the best and most convenient factor between buyer and sell er, usually to the benefit of both—the buyer as well as seller. And don’t you forget that we are SELLERS of most everything pertaining to Men’s and Hoys’ Wear, that we have fresh from the factories, an immense stock of tine Suits, Overcoats, Trowsers, Hats, Taps. Shoes, Topshirts, Un derwear, Neckwear, Gloves, Hosiery,and most anything that goes to make the Man or Hoy completely and well dressed, and that we are ready for a rushing fall trade. H nally, don’t forget that our prices are invariably as mod est and reasonable as the low est quotations in this whole blessed country, and its up to you what to do!

It “Tfct Fiw of Tfci Owe*”—Shikts peare's Character litradiced— Audience Lacks Ea tbNsiasa. To paraphrase Mrs. Paring ton “com jatrihoiui arc‘odorus’”. Perhaps it was fur this reason that Miss Haswell's presentation of “The Favor of the Queen”, coming as it did the night alter the brilliant dashing “Winsome Winnie,” with Miss Paula Kilwardos, was my quietly received by such an aud ience, the siae of which uever tilled Colonial Theatre, who, while it show* ed quiet interest, lacked enthusiasm. Tiie comparison was so striking that to quoteJSliakesi>eare, who himself was one of tiie actors, “it smelt to heaven. ” 1 Miss HasweU, the darliug of the gods aud goddesses of Baltimore, did ’ not receive the curtain calls she does there, nor was she tailed upon to I make any speeches; not because her * work was unappreciated, but iierliajis because she has yet to * ’grow upon” an Auna}K>lis audience which is more or less phlegmatic. The play itself is new, aud yet it is old. The heroine is suggestive of both Rosalind and Viola. Miss Haswell's inijsirsonation of Lady Julia whuse identity is hidden in the “boy NfxT', is marked by freedom, grace and animation. Her love scenes are )>eautiful, aud the difficulties she i meets liecause of her male attire give a dash of humor to the character she iuqierMoiiateH. While a mixture of Ro salind aud Viola, Lady Julia has some degree of value as a dramatic crea tion and Miss HasweU brought out the very best there was in the charac ter. As the play progressed, the audience wanned up, aud now and then there was a burst of applause or a ripple of laughter. Miss Auit Carroll, the young society woman of Baltimore who lias recently gone on tiie stage, was cast as Anne Hathaway, Shakespeare’s wife. She had a small inrt and hut few lines. Her voice is poor, aud site was either frightened or lias mistaken her vocation. The play is far too wordy. There are long conversations and dia logues when Miss HasweU, who is the play itself is not on the stage that are tiresome and meaningless. The drink* ingseeue in the second act could be cut out without damage to tiie play. It lacks humor aud is wearisome. For at least five minutes nothing is said, aud the silence is jiainful befon> Master Barton falls asleep after his debauch. The waits between the acts are almost of the “Sweet Jasmine” typo, and apparently not, scenery to justify them. Many of the characters either have not committed them well or forgot their linos and liad to be prompted by Miss HasweU, who her self iipjMared to' be stranded for the cue at oue interval of the play. The author of the play, Mr. Roy S. Sensabaugh, is a mere boy. It was a somewhat daring thing to do when he introduced such characters as Siiakes pearo, Queen Elizabeth and the Karl of Essex as characters. Yet he has done it witli tact and lias put such lxiautiful lines into thh mouth of his Shakespere s tht gret playwright him self lis put into months of others. The young author gives great promise and had Iris play been seen here under more favorable circumstances anti not by strong contrast, it might have scor ed a hit aud met with a more enthus iastic audience. Change of Residence. Mr. George E. Morriam, wife of Oomauder Merriam. has taken her house on Prince George street, former ly occupied by the family of f\c Rjv. William Muuford, aud will reside here for the winter. The familv of Mr. Frank Bealer has moved to Laurel, where they have taken up their residence. Mr. Bealer is train dispatcher at the tower near that place. Mrs John 0. Bocsell has taken the house on Prince George street, recently purchased from Mrs. Robeck. She lias had the house newly papered aud painted aud fitted up as a model hoard ing house with all new furnishings. It is in a desirable locality aud Mrs. Bocsscl expects to liave it filled with Delagates and Senators during legisla tive session this winter. Major Charles A. Doyen, U. S. M. 0., in charge of the barracks at the Naval Academy, left today for Fort Riley, Kansas, to witness militry ma neuvers. During Major Dozen's ab sceuce Captain James O. Breckinridge will act as commanding officer at the marine barracks. Child Drinks Laudanum. The two year aid daughter of Mr Wil liam Hardesty of Wfrst street drank a quantity of laudanum last night from a bottle and was violently ill for some hours. Emetics were given the child and the usual treatment for such cases administered while a physician was being summoned. The result was satisfactory and the child is apparently all right to day. This is the second case of children be* 1 ing poisoned in a similar manner in the last two days It is a warning to parents to keep poisonous matter out of the reach of children. I ' Missionary Meeting. At the regular monthly meeting of the Woman's HAme and Foreign Missionary- Society of the Presbyterian Church held yesterday afternoon. The following were l elected first, second and third vice presi dents, respectively: Mrs. W. M. Abbott, Mrs. Girault, Mrs. Samuel Jones.

' Yesterday a young lady wlto liad been accustomed to visit the Academy.{took a “short cut” across the grass and was ( politely told by a watchman she was J violating a writteu law of the Naval Academy. YESiERBinjOOT ml ■ The Middies Scon Eighteen Points Ageinst Deit Mites of 6illiudet College By 6ood Playing. T,l< i ~a val Ac *deny football team s scortHl 18 points against tin* Deaf Mutt's 8 College vetsterdav after s noon, as stated in the "Capital’’ last 1 evening. Thu weatlior was so warm 9 that the players .suffered severely, ami , the game was stopped a lit to short til - the agreed time in ortler u allow the l visitors to catch a train. Gallaudet • carried the ball on eml nlays well at times, and tackled fiercely and cleanly 1 but they were not quite up to the standard of the midshipmeu in play ’ ing ability and were considerably out 5 weighed. Nevertheless the Navy boys I had to play ball all the time to make 4 any headway. i The Navy got their first davantage • on a fumble, by the visitors after the < first kickoff. The Navy kicked, but i the hall rolled along the ground and was fumbled by the visitors, Farley i falling on-it. The Navy gained ground i steadily, and carried tin- ball to their opponents* eight-yard line. Here ground was lost on a quarterback run, i which worked slowly, and Gallaudct got the l*all on downs. They could not gain, and puutod 30 yards out. From this point the Navy did uot lose the luill until Halsey was forced over for the first touchdown, and Howard kicked the goal from a wide angle. Tile Navy kicked off again, and was penalized on account of Farley being" off sides. Gallaudet had {kkssessiou of the ball several times before any scor ing was done, and Burns made one 20- yard run for Gallaudet. The Navy, however, got the ball in the center of the field, and Strassburger, Farley and Boot carried it steadily down the field, and Pearsol made the second touchdown, from which Howard again kicked the goal. There were a number of exchanges of punts in the second half, Howard generally gain ing from 5 to 10 yards for the mid shipmen on each return. Gallaudet also got the ball twice on fumbles and twice on downs. The midshipmen’s team was changed cousiderablly, hut < continued to put up good ball. i Hickey, a new man was tried at left half, and put up a dashing game. Far ley and Strassburger were used with the greatest success iu carrying the ball. Farley scored the only touch down’in the half, and Howard scored his third goal. The navy coaches decided 'to try a few substitutes iu the latter part of the game as a result of which Hickey, Keene, Martin aud Baggley were given a chance. They all ac-quitted them- 1 selves well The liue-up : Navy—Soule, captain, 1. e.; Farley, 1 and Martin, 1. t., Oak, c.; Reese, 1. g. ; Smith, r. g. ; Howard, and Bag ley, r. e. ; Root and Hickey, 1. h. b. ; Strassburger, r. h. b.; Halsey and Keene, f. b.
