The Vienna papers are commenting
rather eXcitedly upon the speech made by
the Archduke Rainer, the most liberal
and popular of the Austrian princes,
Science, over which he presided. The
Archduke said he was sorry to be COM
PEELED to state that war against enlight-
enment and progress had been COM
menced, but that with all true men of
science he hoped that the sad change
would soon pass away.
The Archduke evidently referred to the
establishment of denominational schools
and the overwhelming influence OF the
clergy The Neue Freie PTesse extols the
speech and predicts that it will be read all
over Austria with joyful gratitude. The
clerical journals naturally have but little
praise to bestow upon the sentiments ex-
pressed.

companies are moving for a reduction OF

The voluminous and interesting papers
left by the late John Bright will not be

arise if publication were to take place

FOR JoHNsTOwN.
The Fisk Dramatic Society Lends Its
Aid.


The Fisk Dramatic Club, of Bergen and
Lafayette, which is composed entirely of
young people, gave an entertainment for
the benefit of the Johnstown victims last
night at Bergen Hall.
1t was about forty-five minutes after
eight o'clock, when Mr.. John Dingwood
stepped before the footlights and intro
duced Mayor Cleveland to the audience
In his usual happy manner the Mayor
at once pitched into the subject and said
that inasmuch as they had read so much
of the horrors of this disaster during the
last two weeks he did not suppose they
desired to hear more, but that they would
rather hear something about where the
money raised goes to, and If it reaches the
proper destination.
"Our money" said he, "has been sent
to the Governor of Pennsylvania, who Is
at JohnstOwn, and it is through him dis
tributed in a proper manner.
II was told the other that there is no
need of more money for these sufferers.
this was said by miserly, rich man who
had contributed IS, and was
worried. Now you people here have
paid money at the door
for good purpose, and in return you will
be entertained for it, and thus receive
pledSuTe WLlle al tne same tlule uOluB u
noble work. He made a hit when he re-
cited ''The Bookkeeper's Dream"
The programme concluded with the
comedietta "A Regular Fix" The play
represented tramp, Frank j. Higgins,
who was ever getting into fix" and
continually had the Sheriff after him. The
plot included the trials of Mr.. Surplus,
O rich, pompous old fellow who had
a daughter that toFmented the life nearly
out of him. Beside these characters there
were number of minor ones. The play
in itself was rotten and shallow, but the
good action made it very enjoyable.
AT the door last night S40.50 were taken
in, and it is believed that tickets sold by
the members will swell the total amount
to between $50 and $40.
