The "Main Line" at Jacobs Theatre.
The main Line a drama of strong
sensational interest, will be presented
at Jacobs Theatre, Hoboken, on Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday even
igs, and at the Wednesday matinee.
The story is of the country girl who
falls in love with the city man, this
time an artist, and there is a city
young lady to whom he has been en-
gagged. The country swain, a brake
man, works on the fathers fears as to
q supposed murder by the latter. But
the daughter consents to marry the
brakeman only to save the life Of the
man who has deserted her. Her rail
road instinct, however, makes her
finally decide to sacrifice, as she
thinks, her city lover, when she thinks
q whole trainful of people will be en-
dangered. There is a powerful scene.
The brakeman and the artist have
gone off on a freight train. The last
car, on which is one of them, becomes
uncoupled and rolls on toward the
main line just as the express comes
along. She switches the freight car
to smash on a siding. The express is
saved and so is the artist. The brake
man villain was ON the last freight
car, as is learned in the last act. This
strongly dramatic material is made
good use of and will without doubt
draw crowded houses at every per-
Torrance.

tor of the can is the partisan cores
pondent of the Tribune, and he never
loses an opportunity to discharge
his bile as often as the Repub-
lican party is hit. Nothing
that has happened in this State of late
years has so excited and angered the
Republicans as the passage of the Re

Ubiquitous gerrymander by which they
have held the State Legislature in
spite of the Democratic majority on
the popular vote, and destroys their
hope Of securing control of the legis-

The Loss of Our War Ships.


The loss of the American war YES
sells in the harbor of Apia is so great a
calamity that it is a pity that it should
be made the excuse for i'll considered
criticisms of American officers and
sailors. Unfortunately, the oppor-
tunity has been made use Of by those
who would rather pick flaws than see
them remedied. The fact that the
English gunboat Calliope got out of
the harbor safely is made the text
of doleful confessions that Britain con-
tinues to rule the wave.
The truth is that until full reports
come in it is impossible to intelligently
praise or blame any one. Whoever is
familiar with the sea knows that one
mans judgment on the spot is worth
a thousand opinions from people who
were not there. The chances are a
hundred to one that the safety of the
Calliope depended upon some accident
of position or preparation, and that
seamanship had nothing to do with
it. The officers of the American and
German vessels unquestionably knew
enough to get into the open sea if
they could. As to preparation, no
such hurricane as that of March 16,
1889, had occurred in that region for
six years, and was thus hardly to be
expected.
The proper mental attitude of every
patriotic citizen is one of regret for
the lost seamen, whose bravery had
never been questioned and whose
skill we landsmen should be slow to
impugn.

Liquor bill, it was announced that a
Sunday concert would be given a
week ago yesterday in Cronheim's
Theatre. The police served notice
that the carrying out of the design
would get Mr.. Cronheim into trouble,
and the theatre was not opened. Last
evening, however, a great throng of
people gathered at the doors of the
playhouse and were admitted a
drama was put on the stage, and when
| went in to make a survey walters
were busy serving beer to the specta-
tors. The evenings entertainment

The Deutscher Reit Club.

The galleries, stairways and en-
frances to Hexamer's Riding Academy,
Hoboken, were thronged on Saturday
night with spectators who witnessed
the fourteenth annual exhibition of
fine Deutcher Reit Club.
The programme embraced a quad
lille, waltz and trot by the members
of the club, with Mr.. Alexander p.

One of the principal features of the
exhibition was the riding of the
trained stallion Prospect by Mr.. Alex
ander p. Hexamer, who showed some
remarkable results of equestrian high
school training. The evolutions in
the galop by the club were fine, and
the hurdling extremely exciting.

ABOUT THE POLES.
TELEGR4PH coMPAEIEs At WAR
IN H0BOKEN.

The Western Unions Worlxmen Ordered
to Quit Removing Po1es-Crowds At
tend the Annual Exhibition of the
Deutscher Reit Club and Witness a
Splendid Exhibition.
A gang of men employed by the
Western Union Telegraph Company
was at work Saturday in removing
the telegraph poles on Second street,
between Washington and Bloomfield,
and replacing them with new ones.
Two poles had been lowered when
President Julius Schlatter, of the
American District Telegraph Com
pany, made his appearance, and
wanted to know by what authority
the men were meddling with his COM
pany's property.
The foreman of the gang showed
him a permit signed by the Street
Commissioner, granting permission to
the Western Union Company to take
down the old and put up new poles on
that thoroughfare. President Schlat-
ter Immediately fastened to Police
Headquarters and ordered the work
stopped and the man arrested. The
foreman of the gang was summoned.
He produced his permit, but vas or
dered to put the wires in condition
and suspend further operations until
an Investigation could be made.
The B. 81 0. Telegraph Company
was merged into the Western Union
six years ago. 1t had been allowed
the use of the American District Com
pany's poles because both Offices were
located in the same building. The
Western Union Company will remove
their Office from Bush's Hotel to the
rne of Hudson and Second streets
about the list of May. The poles in
present use are not large enough to
accommodate it's wires, and it was
while carrying out the necessary
changes and improvements that the
men were ordered to quit.
Manager J. NJ. Faulkner, of the
Western Union Company, called upon
President Schlatter and showed him a
written proposition made by the Balti-
more and Ohio Company to the Ameri-
can District Company, which had
been found among a number of old
papers, and which, had it been ac-
cepted, would undoubtedly have
proved the poles to be the property of
the Western Union. President Schlot-
ter denied that the proposition had
been accepted.
A meeting of the Board of Directors
of the American District Company
will be held on Tuesday evening at
Burners Hotel, corner of Washington
and Fifth streets, to discuss the
matter, to which the District Superin-
tendent of the Western Union has been
invited.
