FIRE COMMISSIONERS.
Chief Scannell VIII Not Interfere With
Electric Wires.

AT meeting of the Board Of Fire Com
missioners yesterday, Chief Scannell re-
ported that he had consulted with the City
and County Attorney regarding the removal
of electric wires which are being stretched
across the tops of houses.
An injunction was issued from the United
S tates Circuit Court some time ago restrain
ing the Chief from interfering wi h the
wires of the Electric Improvement Com
pany, and the board desired to know
VIII ether the injunction held good against all
the other companies.
The Chief stated that he had been advised
by the City and County Attorney not to in
terfere with any of the wires until a de-
cision is rendered by Judge Sawyer in the
case, but it is not known when Judge Saw
yer will render such decision, as lie is at
present unable to attend to the duties of his
court on account of sickness.
On suggestion of Chief Scannell the board
recommended to the Board of Supervisors
that an old Amoskeag third-cass engine be
sold, as it is entirely useless TO the depart
ment, having seen sixteen years service.
The Commissioners also recommended
the sale Of 5000 pounds of old brass and 5000
pounds of old iron, which is on hand at the
engine houses.

This young and but recently known writer
for the stage has no less than three plays
running simultaneously in New York just
now-"The Master of Woodbarrow," at
the Lycerm; Sunset" comedietta, at
the Garden; and New Lamps for Old" an
eccentric comedy, at Days. AS to Jerome
himself the New York press say he is 50
years old and is married. When he left
school lie decided that his destiny lay upon
the stage. Two years, filled with some
pretty rough experiences, changed his mind,
however, and he turned schoolmaster. and
eventually reporter. which profession he
stuck TO persistently for several years. In
the meantime he had written little book
called Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow"
which has gone through several editions,
both in England and in this country. His
first play had only one act. Jerome called
il 'Barbara," and 1t was brought out at the
Globe Theater in London, four years ago.

plenty OF forceful pathos on hand TO be

tone and levity OF manner in discussing

critics to believe that Woodbarrow was
written just to show how absurd and hyper
pathetical play could be written and still
be popular Sydney GruDdy holds this
idea slil and cOnceiveS that the comedy
now running at the Lyceum is huge joke
on the people OF New York.

Frank Harvey's well-knOwn drama, will be
presented at the Aicazar tomorrow evening.
October 10th, for the benefit of the ushers,
doorkeeper and assistant treasurer. The
interest Of the piece turns on the fact that
Bessie Barton assumes the responsibility of
anolher's sin, and comes very near making a
total wreck OF her own life in consequence.
As it is, she has Very tough time of it till
the last act, where Mr.. Harvey eXerts his
constructive ingenuity to bring things to a
happy conclusion by removing the clouds
that lower over the heroine's pathway. The
moral of such drama ought to be that
every tub should stand on its own bottom,
or. in other words, every one ought to be in
dividually responsible for his or her own
sins of omission and commission.
