NEW YORK NOTES.

Widow Stewards Four Theaters, and the Uses
to Which They Have Been Put.
Special to the indianapolis Journal
NEW YORK, March lathe widow Of Alexan-
der T. Stewart was the owner of four theatsrs.
One was Niblo's Garden, now in use; the second
was the Comique, the walls of which still stand
AS the ruin of fire; the third was the Waverley,
rebuilt years ago into stores and the fourth was
the old 'Astor Place Church, which was utilized
awhile as factory, and then remodeled into
variety theater for the noted Jack Aberle. 1t
became place of low resort under Aberle, with
a wine room for the mingling of actresses and
auditors. That is no longer permitted in this
city, and the police raded the place often that
Aberle was finally driven out Then Johnny
Thompson, brother of Billy McGlory, and
known on the stage the hero Of the drama,
''On Hand" got lease. He gave most dis
graceful show to the general public, and after
ward. at midnight when the regular assemb1age
was dispersed, admitted special, fve-dollar spec
tators to still worse doings. He was soon cleared
out, and the house has since been empty, except
for week of futile attempt to play cheap, but
clean pieces in it. Now it is to be rebuilt for
Poole. the partner of Gilmore, ia Niblos, who
will undertake to make it a combination theater
catering to the East Side population. to which
it is handy.

seems improbable, since he Is rather too young,
in comparison to other candidates, to have rea
sonahly expected the appointment.
The doings of the Knights of Labor are pro-
foundry secret until they show publicly for them
selves. and It has proved impossible to deter
mine whether the order has received any direct
communication from Arch bishop Corrigan; but
it is certain that individual members have very
numerously been spoken to by their pastors on
the subject through the confessional Your cor
respondent has further learned that John N. Nc
earthly, cardriver on the Dry-dock railroad,
who struck with his fellow employees, and be-
longs to the Empire Protective Association,
which is section of the Knights of Labor, de-
cided that it was his duty to withhold nothing
from his confessor the Rev. Father Preston. of
St AIMS Church He wrote to the headquar-
tiers of the Knights, in Philadelphia, asking if
the disclosure of Knights of Labor secrets to a
confessor, who was bound by his holy vows to
maintain the confidence ipvio(ate, would be con-
strued as disregard of his own oath. The re-
ply came from Grand Master Powderly, and it's
purport was that the point would probably be
settled within ten days Since then several let
ters bearing the printed title of the Knights of
Labor on their envelopes, postmarked Philadel-
phia and addressed to Archbishop Corrigan, have
been delivered by the carriers at the Archbsh-
ops palace connected with st. Patricks Cathe-
draL The supposition is that Powderly and
Corrlgan are in correspondence.

Young Woman Who Has Achieved Great

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON March 13.-Washington has al
ways been noted for its strange people, but there

who for "oddity" surpasses all of her and many

tall and well-formed Her face Is sweetlooking
and her features well-formed, therefore, she is
not bad to look at. She wears a long cape. lined
with fur and it reaches far over her skirt Her
dress is worn short, some say on purpose to
show her small aud we'll -shaped foot; at any rate
she takes particular pride in displaying that
member of her body. Her peculiarly
however, is her hair. Coming upon her from
the back, one sees in front of him something
that resembles the head of buffalo on the body
of shapely young girl. Her tresses fall from
beneath an old-fashioned bonnet in a perfect
cascade of tightly twisted curls These reach
almost to her waist the sight is. indeed.
strange for it makes her head look like Buffalo
Bills magnifed several times. The front view
is even more peculiar The curs fall in numer
GUS ringlets around her face, but in such num-
Der as to disfgure her. Her little bonnet caps
the climax, and adds to the uniqueness. A
colored maid accompanies this strange young
lady whenever she walks abroad.

THE KNIGHTS AND THE CHURCH.

An Important Question Which Archbishop
Corrigan Has Been Requested to Settle.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
NEW YORK, March 13.-The labor question is
forced upon Archbishop Corrigan in the form of
choice between action and non-action against the
knights of Labor a secret society. All or
CARNATIONS involving an oath of secrecy are IN
der the bann of the Roman Catholic Church.
Here in the diocese of New York the enforce
ment of that rule has long been lax, and espe-
cially so under Cardinal McCloskey. and during
the reign of Pope Plus TX. Cardinal McCloskey,
as an Irishman, was in sympathy with his coun-
trymen, and indisposed to be rigorous with them
as to their membership IN secret societies Oc-
casionally parish priest would deny admittance
to his church for societies in regalia and that
action would be sustained by the Cardinal, but
that was about the extent of sup
the Sons of st. Patrick. and
the Hibernians fourished without serious him
drance from the Catholic clergy. The present
Pope Leo has had firmer policy of antagonism
to secret societies. The understanding in high
Catholic circles here is that in refusing to give
New York successor to McCloskey In the car
dinalate, and especially now in deciding to 60 to
Canada for second cardinal in America, he
expresses a rebuke for the failure to effectualy
discountenance secret orders among Irishmen
here. Archbishop Correan has received within
the month an official letter from Rome, among
the contents of which, his secretary admits was
a passage bearing on this matter That the in
junction to enforce the power of the church to
break up the Knights of Labor was imperative
is indicated by the fact that, simultaneously the
Archbishop of Quebec issued his denunciation of
the Knights, and forbade all Catholics to remain
members. That Archbishop Corrigan has lost a
cardnalate through his leniency as some of the
attaches Of his official establishment imply,
