THE WAGES OF SIN.

. At the New Haven Opera House this even ing and tomorrow evening the great New York and London success e'The Wages of Sin," will be presented by Manbury & Overton's company, The New York Mirror says the play is replete with human interest, and the motives and language of the people in the story are not over-exaggerated The plot is related forcibly and simply. The development is natural, and the ends of sequence and probability are carefully con- served. The parts furnish variety, contrast and originality. The dramas effectiveness solely depends upon the strength of it's plot and the capabilities of the actors. Indeed, no recent melodramatic production can ap- proach ''The Wages of Sin" in respect to genuine dramatic power and intensity of purpose

 Having noticed an article in this mornings issue of the Union commenting on the school question in which my name was men tioned in connection herewith, I desire to state emphatically that am not a candidate for member of the Board of Education or of any other board, the conversation be- tween a reporter of the Union and myself being mutually understood at the time to be in confidence and strictly private.

SONGS V SUNG.

SONGS NEVER SUNG.
"How does that verse run? Something like
this, isn't it?
There are who touch the magic string,
And noisy fame is proud to win them;
Alas! for those who never sing,
But die with all their music in them.'"
'sYes, that's beautiful, pathetic and true"
said your representative. "The poet alludes to
people who are somehow suppressed, and never
get their full allowance of joy and air. Which
reminds Inc of a letter shown me the other day
by HIsCox Il Co, of New York, signed by MI.
D. G. Williams, Of Chapman, Snyder & Co.,
Pa, a prominent bushes man Of that place.
He writes:
81 have suffered with asthma for over forty
years, and had a terrible attack in December
and January, 1882. 1 hardly know what
prompted me to take PARKER'S Tonic. / did
80, and the first day l took four doses. The
effect astonished me. That night I slept as il
nothing was the matter with me, and have
ever since. l have had colds since, but no
asthma. My breathing is now as perfect as If
l had never known that disease. If you know
OF any one who has the asthma tell him in my
name that PARKER's Tonic will cure it-even
after forty years." There was a man who es-
capped the fate OF those whom the poet laments.
This preparation, which has heretofore been
known as PARKER's GINGER Tonic, will here
after be advertised and sold under the name of
PARKER'S Tonic. Inasmuch as ginger is really
an unimportant ingredient, and unprincipled
dealers are constantly deceiving their customers
by substituting inferior preparations under the
name OF ginger, we drop the misleading word.
There is no change, however, in the prepara-
ton itself, and all bottles remaining in the
hands OF dealers, wrapped under the name of
PARKER'S GINGER Tonic contain the genuine
medicine il the facsimile signature of HISCox
co. is at the bottom Of the outside wrapper.
