LITTLE FOLKS IN VAUDEVILLE. A Unique Enterprise Conducted by a Brooklyn Woman. Vaudeville has for many years past been a favorite, form ot entertainment with adults, not alone in the theaters and music halls, but In drawingrooms as well, and now the chil dren, not to be behind the times, are acquiring a knowledge of the art. Mrs. Arnetta Wood of 232 Livingston street has taken advantage of the growing tendency in this direction and has begun a systematic course of instruction of the young which is novel enough to warrant discussion.

Mrs. Wood is the mother of "Little Tuesday," who is one or the beat known child actresses in the country. Tuesday dropped the stage for a serious course of school hooks a year or so ago, but she expects to return shortly to her former conquests. An Eagle reporter who talked with Mrs. ood about her unique system of vaudeville and specialty study for children learned some interesting facts.

"How did I come to think of teaching children character songs and impersonation instead of the old fashioned style of elocution? she said, in answer to the reporter's query, "well, la the fir3t place, I am Lxtle Tuesday's teacher, and her success suggested the thought that I might 'train other children in the same way. Yuu see vaudeville is the fad Just now, and many parents are anxious to have tfte little folks become bright entertainers." "Do all your little pupils study for the stage?" was the next question. "By no means," said Mrs. Wood. "In fact the children who intend to make a professional use of of their instruction are very much in 'the minority.

They study for home entertainments during the winter, and to take part with others in the children's entertainments that are such a feature at the hotels and otcages in fashionable sura mer resorts and in schools and churches as well. One of the reasons frequently put forth by a mother for having her children taught character songs is that they may be able to successfully compete with their little associates in public or semi public performances. A child who does not know how to sing or dance or recite is apt to become a 'wall a position which neither the mother nor the child enjoys." Interrogated as to her method Mrs. Woods continued: "I do not teach elocution in the way in which it is commonly taught, but I interpret what Is 'termed dramatic elocution. Of course I have a method of my own which Is based upon the principle of making the child recite and act in the most natural manner possible.

I cannot stand an affected child, and my aim Is to win the confidence of 'the little ones, and by making them feel perfectly at home banish all traces of self consciousness. I do not mean by this that I believe in encouraging children to be noticeably forward, but simply as entertainers in a naturally childlike way. Then, too, a diffident lit'tle one is often a source of much concern to ite mother, and you would be surprised to know how many children are Drought to me to spc if I cannot overcome this trait. The very 'thought of appearing berore friends in the home drawing room or in the parlor of a summer hotel is often enough to almost overcome a shy and sensitive child, whereas it should be a source of genuine pleasure. Of course I introduce a certain amount of Delsartc method in my work, for I do not see how a child can be 'taught to recite properly if there is no training in gestures, but there must be no stiffness or artificiality about these Delsarte movements.

As might be inferred the younger the children begin their study the greater their progress. I began with Little Tuesday when she was a mere baby and that fact I am sure proved no small factor in her success. The responsiveness of children is so great, especially if they feel tha't tbey are understood, and they are such born imitators, that if they are taken before they have acquired any habits of affectation they can be trained moi'; successfully. "I do not inflict any undue exercise upon he children to develop their vocal pcweris, but 'insist upon proper articulation and enunciation, bot'h in singing and in recitation, and try to correct a tendency either for monotone or high pitch and substitute a pleasant, speaking tone. Then, with regard to dancing, I only introduce ft at when it is necessary to illustrate the song or story, and never teach anything approaching skirt dancing.

Vaudeville performers of the type of Vesta Tilley and May Irwin are the most frequently impersonated, the latter especially, because naturalness is her forte, and the pupils, who range in age from to 11, derive great benefit from that style of work. I have some children a year or two younger, and they learn character songs and HKet'AM, in addition to impersonation. I was actress before I was marrie said Mrs. Wood, In conclusion, "and my training in dramatic elocution, a.s well as my fondne.v for children, have been great aids in this work, to which I am thoroughly dev. ted.

Do I never have children of larger growth for pupils? Oh, yes, particularly young ladies who want to entertain their family and friends wlM a drawing room rendering of ballads or sketches. It has the rnrrect thing now for tbe drawing r. van leville performers to be givpn by trail. amateurs rather than professionals, and wioty women, as a rule, show an aptness for work." "I have a great respect for art," said tho young man who dabbles. "Yes," replied Miss Cayenne, "it la a characteristic of human nature to view with awe itolngs that wo don't know much about, Waahlnzton Star.

Early on Tuesday morning a fire occurred in the engine house on Georgo Jay Gould's place.

M. T1EMANN, 88 Fulton St. CAMPAIGN OF COPENHAGEN. Not a Great Triumph, Like the Nile, Says Judge Morris. Copenhagen was not a great triumph, like the Nile; It has even been described as a drawn battle.

But in the conduct of the operations as a whole the genius of Nelson clearly shines out; 1c was never, perhaps, more plainly manifest. Had he not been hampered by a timid superior, he would probalbly have destroyed the fleets of the North; at the same time, have forced Copenhagen to yiefld. Restricted as was the sphere of his action, he indicated the true "way to attack the Danes; his selection of the southern end of the Kings Channel, as that by which the fleet was to enter, not impossibly averted a grave reverse. He rightly insisted on disregarding Parker's signal to retreat his daring and skill secured success; it has been said that It saved the British fleet, though this seems to us to be a far fetched notion. A distinguished and impartial French authority has declared that "the campaign In the Baltic will always be Nelson's best title to renown in tlhe eyes of the professional seaman; he alone was capable of displaying such dlaricg and perseverance; he alone could confront and overcome the immense difficulties of Uhe enterprise." Judge O'Conor Morris in the February Pall Mall Magazine.

The proprietors of mountain resorts hope to profit by the war scare. They think if war is declared that few people will want to patronize coast resorts, and he in range of a Spanish "'User's guns. On the line of the Southern Railway, in the heart of the Appalachian mountains, twelve miles east of Asheville, N.

a number of prominent ministers of various denominations and husiness men are establishing a mountain health resort. Among the incorporators and managers are the Rev. Floyd TV. Tomkins, rector of Grace Episcopal Church, Providence, R. William H.

Wanamaker, brother of ex Pcstmaster General John Wanamaker; the Rev. David Allen Reed, president of the School for Christian Workers, Springfield, Mass. the Rev. David Gregg, D. pastor of the Lafayette Avenue Presbyterian Church, Brooklyn; the Rev.

H. H. Kelsey, pastor of the Fourth Congregational Church, Hartford, the Rev. A. C.

These and others have obtained a charter from. the North Carolina Legislature, with special privileges, and are establishing a community, the general plan of which is similar to that of Ocean Grove, N.

but Is under the direction of ministers and Christian people of several denominations. The of liquor is forever prohibited by legislative enactment. All profits from the sale of land and other sources belong to the entire community and are used for schools, streets and ordinary expenses. The grounds of the association contain over 4,300 acres (about seven square miles), with altitude of settlement 2,700 feet above sea level. In scenery it is the Switzerland and in climate the Italy of America.

The location is suitable for temporary residence summer or winter, or for permanent residence during the entire year, and is one of the most healthful on the American contineut. Some weeks ago the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy. Railroad put on a fast train between Chicago and Denver which greatly reduced the time between those two points. Tbis action caused consternation aorong outside l'inea and the Burlington stocd a fair dhance of securing nearly all of the through passenger business. The matter was taken up to the Central Traffic Association and Arbitrator Caldwell's decision is that che Chicago, Burlington and Quincy must chargo an extra fare between those nvo points.

The extra. Tare will be to those wfto ride in cGalr cars or coaches and $4 to those caking sleepers. Notes From Atlantic City. (Special to the Eagle.) Atlantic City. N.
