Stage News.

Boston has half as many theaters as New
York, and yet, together with Boston's sub
urbs. she does not boast Of anywhere near
half New York's population.
Louis James and Frederic Warde pool
issues next season and star jointly. They
promise to produce the new plays, "The
Lions Mouth" and "Memnon."
"Sinbad," after taking in S12, $50 at st.
Louis last week, took special train on
Saturday night direct for San Francisco.
The train had seven cars. the company
numbering ninety-six.
Gas Ye Sow" the new novel from the
pen Of Leander Richardson, editor OF the
Dramatic Nel0S. has enjoyed the unusual
distinction of being completely sold out, so
far as concerns its first edition, in one day.
Other editions are being rapidly prepared.
Dunlaps Stage Ne,0s puts the absolute
wrecks this season, so far, as the "Khe-
dive" "The Black Masque." and "Fleur.
ette," but, it adds, the long-winded hot
wave has distressed many, and half-dozen
are laboring hard near the rugged rocks of
collapse.
A noticeable thing about ladies in New
York who kindly take off their bonnets at
the theater is the disappearance Of the
Psyche knot and the substitution of the
pyramid coil. A lady'S description of the
| latter Is: Draw the braid up to the crown,
| not the top, and tie it to stand out"

The Devils Auction.

The new Devils Auction is a drawing
card this year. 1t will be at the theatsr
Friday and Saturday nights, with a Satur-
day matinee performance. The Philadel-
phia Bulletin says of the company's open-
ing performance this season: The play,
often as it has been seen here, has never be-
fore been presented in more admirable
fashion. Many of the features of last
nights performance were novelties, par
ticularly the appearance Of the Bosbobies,
who perform wonderful acrobatic feat,
and the far-famed Lorellas, whose clever
ness in an eccentric sketch act won great
applause. The Transatlantique Ballet
Troupe includes several skillful dancers, and
their excellence was signally displayed in a
bright conceit called 1.-The Chinese Screens. y
The company includes George II. Adams,
whose antics still entitle him to the dis
tinction Of the cleverest of clowns. w. H.
Bartholomew, Miss Victoria Walters, Miss
Louise Dempsey aud host of other bright
people and numerous shapelY and handsome
women. Taken altogether the Devils
Auction" is one of the very best specimens
of the old-time spectacular entertainment.

ANY criticism that may be directed
against the New York Life by reason of its
expenditures will strike at life insurance
generally, for the reason that the cost of do
ing business has been increased for all the
companies Better agents are employed,
and their remuneration is greater. for the
intense competition makes It necessary TO
work hard and with extraordinary ability
to get business. The old, easy-going methods
that brought business twenty years ago can
accomplish nothing nowadays, aud there is
not a progressive company now which
does not have to spend larger pro-
portion of It's income 30 secure new BUSH
ness than it did years ago. For the pro-
lection of the company against bad risks
considerable portion Of the increase in ex-
penses has been incurred. At one time the
company was paving from 40 10 50per
cont OF its premium receipts for death
claims: last year it paid only 24.7 per cent.
Of its premiums for death claims, and here
also the New York Life makes a better
showing than all tie other companies COM
bined. We make the following comparison:

In view of the extremely favorable g how
ing which the New York Life is able TO
make in every comparison with other COM
panies, it is not surprising taat the enemies
of the management have been forced to adj
init the high standing Of the company. And
that admission is fatal TO the object that
such enemies have in view, for it is utterly
impossible TO divorce the management from
the results which it has accomplished That
the New York Life is what il is, is due 30 the
efforts Of Mr.. Beers, and there is no getting
away from that fact. IL il as the manager
Of the New York Life that Mr.. Beers hes

ON SIMMONS HEELS.

The Sheriff OF Mcintosh Giving the
Eobber a Hard run.
DARIEN, GA, Sept. 26-In letter of a
couple of weeks ago gave long account
of the escape of Joe Simmons, the white
robber, from Jail. There has been many
rumors of his whereabouts since the escape,
and Sheriff Bailey has been in many direc-
ton in search of the prisoner. but all with
outsuccess. But news reached the city last
night that Sheriff Bailey, with posse, had
captured Simmons two brothers on marsh
island lust below Sapelo. and had them in
custody. 1t seems that the posse
was told that Simmons and his
brothers were camping in one of the
small islands awaiting chance.to get him
OFF in some vessel. So, after searching all
night, one of the party fired gun at the
point where he was stationed, which
aroused the Simmons who were in hiding
on the island. Marshal Sinclair was the
first to discover their whereabouts, One of
the brothers started to run, but decided TO
go and see what was the matter. and Joe
was seen at q long distance making
for the marsh. Both brothers being in the
path were taken into custody and without
loss of time the posse started for Joe, fol-
lowing him through marsh and mud waist
deep until they reached Jue DouhS VI Wlue
river, where they found the gun which ne
had with him and at the edge OF the river
lost track of him. Some think that he
Swan across and was drowned, while Others
think he is in hiding in the marsh and that
hunger will make him come forward and
surrender, as there is little Likelihood OF him
swimming the river, with chances Of being
captured In the mainland. Sheriff Bailey
is still on the island and has the two brothers
in custody and will prosecute them as ac-
cessories after the fact. We are awaiting
news from the island of his capture or else
hearing that he has been drowned IN trying
to ford the river.
