"rhe stowawayn Coming.

"The Stowaway," the latest and prob.
ably the most skilllully constructed OF
modern English melo-dramas, will re-
ceive its initial reception in Wheeling
on Thursday evening, February I.
"The StowawAy" was originally intro.
duced in London four years ago, and has
since enjoyed u remarkable degree OF
prosperity both in the English metropolis
and in the provinces. Its American tour,
which is controlled by Jacob Lift, was
inaugurated with considerable eclat ut
tho Walnut Street Theatre, Philadel-
phia, September II, and since then the
play has been seen in Boston, Brooklyn
and Now York. 1t closed anotably sue
cessiul two weeks engagement Mt Nib.
los Garden, in the latter city, q short
time ago, and will be presented at the
Opera House in the same complete folm
that characterized It's production in
Gotham. Much that Is novel and bril-.
liant in the way Of scenic establishment
is introduced during tho action OF the
playa full-rigged yacht, in the fourth
act, being the piece de resistance. Another
realistic feature, and Il most startling in
noy0tion, is the burglarizing Of Il real
safe by two noted eX.CraCksmen, Spike
Hennessy and Kid Mccoy. These wor-
thips have recently graduated at Sing
Sing, and have transformed themselves
into Thespians with aview to making an
honest dollar. The company that inter.
prets "The Stowaway" is one OF ability.

THH REFORM AK IS SWUNG
And the Hungry and Thirsty
Horde are the Sufferers,
SALARIES CUT ALL AROUND
by the Rclorm Councils Committee
They Scale Nearly Everything,
Much to tho Disgust of
Would-be Office Holders.

The new Democratic Council that has
Just started in to administer the affairs
OF this municipality for the coming two
years, labors under the impression that
it was elected us u reform organization
with u big Il, Just what to do in order
to carry out that impression, andinspire
confidence in the minds OF the people,
has been Il yexed question in the minds
OF the leaders and the conservative
members ever since the management OF
things passed into their party's hands.
They all agree that something should
and must be done, but just what no one
has been exactly prepared to say,
Mr.. Maxwell, OF the minority, forced
action, however, at the meeting OF Coun-
Gil held Tuesday evening, by presenting
a resolution abolishing certain offices
and creating others, and providing addi-
tionaI duties for other officers, the pro-
visions OF which II carried out would
effect a saving to the city Of about $1,000
per annuIn. This resolution was reject
ed, it will be remembered, and the Com
mittee on Salaries ordered to the front
to prepare something in the reform line,
This committee ret last night and
was in session for nearly three hours,
In that time it scaled the salary list down
nearly $4,000, and cleerly indicated Its
purpose to do still more Just rs soon us
the opportunities present, This, no one
will deny, Is reforming at the very out
set, in 4 somewhat wholesale manner,
1t Is not at all probable, however, that
all the changes proposed by the COM
mittee, Il indeed any o, Of them, will be
adopted by Council, There is sure to
be q big howl raised by the army Of can
didOtes aud their strikers, II by no one
else, over the proposed reductions,
There were mutterings heard lust
night after the committee Hdiolrned,a and
the prospects for fun ahead, when the
committees report reaches Council, are
excellent. The members OF tho commit
tee were not unanimous on all the
changes made, and notice OF opposition
when Council should take up the matter
was served. The candidates will have
until tomorrow evening, at least, or UNI
til such time as Council meets again, to
make life burden TO members by inn
ploring them not to sanction this cut
ting of supplies. All the probabilities
point to stormy aud windy time when
Council takes up the matter us it will be-
presented by the Committee on Salaries.
All the members Of the committee
were present ut lust nights meeting.
The first thing laid before them was a
list OF the salaries at present paid, which
are Us follows:

THH NEW POLICE FORGE.
Lots of Objections Urged
Against the Appointments
BY DISGUSTED DEMOCRATS.
Too Much Brother,in,Law-The Sec
ond Ward Leit Out In the Cold,
Prospects orFun Ahead, Before
the Deputies Go ON Duty.

There was a good deal Of dissatisfac'
ton expressed yesterday by Democrats,
over the appointments made by City Ser
geant-elect Delbrugge, and before these
appointments aretinally confirmed there
will be some tall kicking, The newly
chosen members OF Council from the
Second ward arc represented to be very
much dissatisfied over the fact that that
ward has not n single representative on
the new police force, Some of the other
wards, notably the Sixth, have enough
deputies to satisfy three or four good
sized wards.
But this is not the only source OF COM
plant, Some people think capt" Del
brugge was altogether too liberal IN pro-
viding for his brothers'in'law. Cruise
aud Driller, OF the new force, are said
to bo married to sisters Of the new Chief,
while there was report that Deputy
Sergeant.to.bo SchaelGr was Delbrugge's
wile's brother. This report was denied
Yesterday. Tho Democratic kickers
have declared that Delbrugge had us
many rs five brothers.in.lNw on his
force, but this is untrue, Still 1t makes
the average Democrat who expected q
job filling a uniform and got none, Just
us mad us II it were true.
There ara numerous men in town who
claim to have had straight promises Of
places on the new police force, who, in
stead OF getting tho appointments, got
polite letters OF regret giving reasons
why 1t was thought not best to appoint
them, Some Of these letters will make
interesting reading, One Republican
who voted and worked for Delbruggo is
showing his letter freely, aud denounc'
ing Delbrugge in round terms. Another
man who says Louis promised him d
Job, and that he spent S27 in his inter
est lust Thursday on the strength OF this
promise, has also letter, He was over
heard to say yesterday that he was not
lucky enough to have married onto
the police force"
There will be "mOre fun" before this
thing is finally settled. There are men
in the Ohio Valley Trades and Labor
Assembly who think some OF the APP
pointments Objectionable for other
reasons than ward boundaries orrelation'
ship, and some very prominent people
accuse Delbruggo OF bad faith In making
the appointments.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan, 3l.-The air OF
mystery surrounding the case OF Miss
Annie Eisenhart, the Camden hospital
nurse, the story OF whose sulEerings at the
hands OF an alleged assailant last Friday
night created such n sensation, still con-
tinues. Miss Eisenhart is still confined
to herbed, and no new developments are
looked for until such time as she will
be able to appear personally before the
mayor and police officials, who have
been conducting n searching investiga'
ton into tho facts Of the case. Miss
Eisenhart reluctantly admitted yester-
day that she had been felonously assault
cd on the night spoken Of, a point not
made known until now. The opinion
us to the author Of the outrage seems to
be about equally divided between the
story that she was the victim Of her own
actions, aud that some one connected
with the institution in which she was
employed committed the outrage. All
sorts OF theories have been worked out
by tue Camden Police Department, but
nothing can be definitely learned until
the authorities have Ind an opportunity
to question the woman. Her present
condition, while not serious in any way,
will prevent her leaving the hospital for
at least several days.

RICH FORSYTH IN JAIL


The Parkersburg police several weeks
ago arrested Rich Forsythe, OF this city,
on the charge OF stealing an overcoat
there. Tho authorities here wanted
him also, for the bold robbery Of Addi-
son Israel, the East Wheeling cigar store
man, on the evening OF December II,
but the Parkersburg people declined to
send him up. On Tuesday Officer John
Shorts took the warrant, and aCcompan-
led by officer McNiChol, went to Par.
keSburg, where they obtained custody
Of Forsythe.
He was brought here yesterday after
noon and arNigned before Squire Davis,
Mr.. Israel identified him positively us
the man who came into his place saying,
"Hcre, I've got something Tor YOU give
me 81" Mr.. Israel handed out the
money, when Forsythe drew Il revolver,
saying, "This is what I've got for you,
and covering him, backed out Of the
door. He hNd not since been seen here,
until brought up yesterday.
Squire Davis held him in $1,000 bal
for Il preliminary examination next
Tuesday, aud in default Of bond no was
sent to Jail. His chances for returning
to Moundsville are good.
