The Novelty Show.

Mons. Bushnell's show at their pavil
lion at the Nicoll's Block was witnessed
by over a hundred people yesterday
evening who were very much pleased
with the performances. The opening
piece was a laughable farce entitled
&" Which is Which," which kept the
audience in constant laughter through
out. Miss Ada de We're next appeared
in her dance and song character and was
well received. Her graceful way of
dancing was much admired. The Stan
leys, William and Nettie, then came
forward and played seven different mus
ical instruments and performed them
with grace and mastery skill. The
hooking bird limitations on the kvlo-
phone, performed by William Stanley,
was one of the gems of the evening.
Mons. Bushnell performed very difficult
feats on a slack wire, introducing his
highly trained pigeons which Obeyed
him Wonderfully. His most marvellous
performance was impalng a human
being to a board with daggers while bal
ancing on the wire The feat was &C
cOmplshed with great skill, but the
audience was filed with awe and fear
during its exhibition. and that feat ought
never to be introduced here again. Miss
Nettie Stanley next appeared and sang
very charming ballads. Mons. Bushnell
next introduced his troupe OF French
dogs. These canine performers surprised
everyone with their acts, obeying their
master readily when commanded.
The show concluded with comedy,
"O'Rieley's Family" which was comic
ally executed throughout, showing coun-
try life in Ireland. There will be another
performance tonight and a matinee this
afternoon.

Edward Bellamy, the author o

written a fanciful sketch entitled
"With the Eyes Shut" in which
he describes an approaching phono-
graphic age. The uses which are

and amusing. Passengers on the
railway trains are supplied with
photographic literature so that
their ewes are not injured by read

Of the stations are announced by
photograph in clear tones which
form q striking contrast to the in
comprehensive gibberish of the or
binary brakeman. Mr.. Bellamy
describes q nights experience in .

dreaas by the sound Of q voice. He
Continues: "What startled me

IMPORTANT INVEsT1GAr1oM
Competition Between the American and
 Canadian Railway systems.

NEW YORK, May 2.-In the New York postofice building tomorrow morning there will be a session of the interstate commerce committee of the United States senate for the purpose of Investigating the effect of the competition offered by the Canadian railway system upon the American railway system. New York merchants say the consequences of the report of the committee may be of the utmost importance to the commerce of New York, and that any restriction upon the facilities now afforded for the trans portation of freight between the east and the west is fraught with serious re- suits, and the deliberation of the con- mittee should therefore be scanned with more than ordinary interest.
 The senate committee begins its work under a resolution that directs 1t, among other things, to inquire 'swhether com merce originating in the United States is diverted from American to Canadian lines and if so, to what extent and by what means, and to inquire fully into the Ques- tion of the regulation ot the commerce carried on by railroads or water routes between the United States and Canada, and to represent what legislation, If any, is necessary for the protection of the commercial interests of the United States or to promote the enforcement of the act to regulate commerce"

WASHINGTON IS QUIET.
Mysterious Disappearance of the Host
 Of Office Seekers.
THEIR FUTURE HOPES.
The Four-Year Rule DIscussed-ApplI. cnnts for Consular Positions Lose Hope-The Civil Service Rules Now Apply to the Railway Mail Servi ice.

WASHINGTON, May ?. Washington. since the departure of the president uo attend the celebration in New York has been as still as New England country village on Sunday. Even at the White House, not a single caller appeared ex- cept on the domestic side. This stagna- tion continued until today, as the presi- dent returned late last night.
 The absence of the president has an extraordinary effect upon the office seekers. They are not here. It is diff- cult to understand where they have gone. The proprietor of one of the hotels, tho Hobbies of which these unwelcome guests so much infest, says: "I think that they have gone home for a lunch," Certain is Is that they take no lunches at the hotel where they assemble, and to which they ask to have their letters addressed. The heads of the departments will be pleased if they do not return.
 Mr. ClarkSon is on guard at the post ttffice department, and the changes of fourth class postmasters continue, but the work is almost carried along by it's own momentum.
 The first important movement of tho administration is expected to be in the In- ternal-Revenue Bureau. There have been some reasons why the secretary of the Treasury has not wished to enter upon the work of making new appoint mentS in that service until after May l. One reason is that May is a period for the sale of certain classes of stamps, and, in certain sense, ends an inter. nal-revenue fiscal year.
 Those who are seeking internal-revenue appointments hold to the theory that the four-year rule as to service is not to ap- ply to the internal-revenue collectors. They base this theory upon the fact that internal-revenue collectors, unlike collec- tors of customs, have no fixed terms to their offices. It Is the expectation thae there will be a general change in the off, fees of such collectors throughout the country within few weeks.
 As to the consular appointments, the applicants have lost hope. There does not seem to be disposition to proceed very rapidly, and the illness of Mr. Blaine has given them additional cause for re- gret. They are not quite certain that > Mir. Blaine is to have his own way about these appointments, but they are very certain that the president will not be likely to make any consular appointments so long as MT. Blaine is unable to be at his official desk.
 The civil service commission manifests no anxiety over the new duties which fol- low from the extension of the civil ser- vice rules to the railway mail service. The rules went into operation yesterday. Already there are on the application books of the commission the names of 2,000 persons who desire to enter that service. Of these very considerable number have already passed creditable examination.

THE MINE ROOF FELL.
And Three Miners Were ICrushed to
 Death.

SCRANTON, Penn., May 2.-Three men were instantly crushsd to death yester- day in the Hyde Park shaft by a fall of the roof. They were loading coal from the mine chambers in a car when the rush came, andsthe great mass of rock that twelve feet wide, and nearly two feet thick.
 The victims were PatrlckIRatchford, . miner, 56 years old; Michael Flynn, . miner, 50 years old ;; and Patrick Began, 8 laborer, B years old.
 The sound of the fatal crash attracted the attention of the other miners close by, and they removed the deadly mass from the mangled bodies as speedily as possi- ble and carried the remains of the ill- fated men to the homes they had left but few hours before for their daily toil
