The treatment the Jersey City Dramatic
Association suffered at the hands of Hyams
at the Academy of Music, on the occasion
of the Associations performance there a
week ago last Monday, was the subject Of
discussion at the meeting or the Associa-
ton the other evening. several ladies al d
gentlemen commended the TALLER for the
independence it had shown ia making the
facts public, and added their corroboresion
to its story. They were ready to say that
they knew people who had been turned
away from the box Office, on the plea that
there were no seats for them, though the
house was only about half full that many
of thesa so turned away had been solicited
to come tomorrow evening to see an-
other performance in which the Academy
manager had more direct personal inter
est; that several were notified that s. this
was not the night for the Parlor Match.
but tomorrow night. ladies and gentle
men J" and that the shifting of the tableau
scenes was SO persistently spoiled as to
seem to have been spoiled on purpose,
Some Of the members were warm in insist
ing that the Academy people should be
held responsible By suit at law for the

these devices to divert their audience. but
finally it was decided to place the matter
in the hands of committee, with instruc.
tons to learn all the facts. Captain ].
Gordon Emmons and Messrs Morrison and
Buchanan were appointed. To those gen
tlemen, or some of them, Manager Hen
derson and Hyams put in general denial.
MIR. Henderson said, and doubtless with
truth, that he would not stoop to anything
SO mean, and that if the things which the
Association had complained had been done
it was without his advice or consent. and
certainly without his approval The Asso-
citation do not believe that Manager Hem
derson was cognizant of the contemplate
work of that night. They believe him to
be above it. But they believe that Hyams
is not only capable of it but that the whole
business was done under his lead. As
Manager Henderson permits Hyams to
hold responsible place in The manage
ment of the theatre, the Association can
not clearly see how the manager himself
can eyade shouldering the responsibility
for hisiactotum's meanness, and it is likely
that suit will be brought

oUR CHRISTMAS IssEG.
Some of Its Fsa ures-An Edition Of 10000
20 be Issned.

The press of holiday advertisements
upon the columns of the SUNDAY TATrLER
has made it necessary for us to yield to
them several columns Of space that is re-
served for reading matter. We had made
calculations for something of rush, and
the enlargement of the paper to nine col
umns in each page for to-day is the result.
But the demand for space has exceeded our
anticipations, and the enlargement leaves
but limited room for reading material
The advertising columns of the paper
show the extent to which it is read. The
shrewd advertisers who have sent us their
f8vors would not pay the rate they are
forced to pay us but for the fact that they
know that because of the number of its
readers the TATTLER is an unusually SER
viceable medium of communication with
the public. While their patronage is very
fatteripg to our pride and solacing to our
pock ets, we feel that we owe an apology to
our reed rs for not having made ampler
arrangements to accommodate them, with
out enci oa ching on the news spaces. We
shall try to compensate for this in the ex-
eellence of the paper we shall present next
Sunday mo ming the Christmas issue of
the SUNDAY TArTLER. We shall Their FIR
nish for two cents an eight-page paper
with sixty-five columns of reading matter.
1t will be filled with CAREFULLY SELECTED
CHRISTMAS STORIES, and there will be added
a local paper, with, among others, an
illustrated article about the First Baptist
Church, portrait article concerning local
business men, continuation of the history
of the companies in the Fourth Regiment
and portraits of some of our lawyers. It
goes without the saying that the paper will
have all the latest local news, and all the
Geographic news which is furnished to us
by the associated Press. II will be the COM
pletest Sunday morning local NEWS paper
ever issued in the State The price will
not be advanced. 1t will be sold, as to-day,
at two cents per copy. If you would make
sure of it, You had better order your news
dealer to leaveitat your house for you. We
shall issue an edition of ten thousand, but
it will probably go like hot cakes and it |
IS for that reason that we advise you to
order In advance.
