TALK OF AN EAST RIVER TUNNEL.


LONG ISLAND AND CENTRAL RAILROADS.
The idea of a tunnel under the East River, which

by a rumor that agreement has been entered

road lines whose terminus Is at the Grand central

SHE is EXCELLENT.


The "School for Scandal" was pre-
sented last night at Turner Hall, by
Miss Adelaide Moore and company. Miss
Moore sustaining the character Of Lady
Teazle. Miss Moore is a very beautiful
young lady. Her every action IL repleie
with grace and winsnmeness. In adj
dition to her rare personal charms, she
possesses exceptional ability; and we
can candidly State thar no actress on the
stage to-day has brighter future before
her. either In natural genius or cul-
ture. Owing a. pressure on space,
an analytical review Of Miss Moore's
Lady Teazle can not be given.
Suffice II 10 shy that she comes out OF
the trying ordeal o. the screen scene.
possibly The most d fllcult scene ever
presented ,,trimphantly. Rarely hHs an
actress attracted us 30 strongly as Miss
Adelaide Moore; her conscientlouness
and intelligent conceptions will surely
reap their deserved guerdon and pace
her among the great iragediennes OF the
century.
The company supporting her Is the
most sterling one that has ever visited
the city, all the members being excel
ct.
The Mrs. Candour, Of Mira. Tannehill,
deserves especial mention, aud also the
Sir oliver Surface, Of MIR. Robert Dol

Mr.. Waiter LcnnoX. Sr. rs Crabtree and

performances; the remaining characters
syere all far above the average. The
Costumes OF the company were exceed
ingly costly and Miss Moore's various
dresses were simply ravishing. They
