The Forepaugh Stock Company performs The Idler at the Majestic Theater this Easter afternoon and night. The play by Haddon Chambers, once produced by Charles Frohman, is praised as a modern society drama with a strong cast and elegant stage life.
The Empire Theater presents the burlesque attraction The Ducklings and a lively opening burletta The Janitor with Broadway hits, special scenes, and electrical effects. Featured acts include Louie Dacre Eva Tanguay Boyle and George Berg family Frankie La Marche James Brennan and Murphy and Magee, with Kellys Dublin Bar as the closing number.
The passage notes that human speech would struggle to express thoughts without help from beasts and birds. It cites common similes like black as a crow, proud as a peacock, blind as a bat, big as an elephant, spry as a cat, and brave as a lion, illustrating how animals clarify meaning in language.
The piece argues the Payne tariff raises costs for women’s attire across hats, feathers, lace, dresses, trimmings, jewelry, hosiery, gloves, lingerie, shoes, perfume and parasols. It estimates taxes on typical items, notes many women spend about 800 dollars on outfits, and suggests husbands or fathers often cover the bills. It frames tariff as a burden on women and a national issue.
The author laments a tendency among educated and respectable people to delay or avoid paying small bills. He argues this indifference harms ordinary workers and suggests the urge to help the poor masks a cruel neglect of responsibilities. He urges immediate payment to restore trust and dignity.
