BLUE JEANS AT OPERA HOUSE.
"Blue Jeans" a most entertaining
play by Joseph Arthur, author OF "Still
Alarm" will be at the Opera House
this evening. The New York Press says:
"Blue jeans" was announced as an
American farce comedy, and il proved
TO be rip roaring production, which,
from beginning 10 end, went off with
snap, viyacity and vim, which kept a
great first night audience in constant
excitement, now laughing until the roof
shook over the funny side Of the play,
and again touched by the vein of what
little thread Of serious plot runs through
10. The scene Of the comedy is laid in
country village in Indiana, where pol
itics, love, barbecues, brass bands and
male choruseS are flung together with
wild abandon that is literally startling.

cancelled all his engagements and re-
tired from the stump. he has proven a
failure as a public speaker, his want of
familiarity with the details OF his sub

many inaccurate statements that it got
monotouous to the State Committee,
which refused 70 pit him against Gov

Withdrawn him altogether. 10 begins

Mr.. Edison announces that he has
invented method by which the pro-
pulsive force in electric railways can be
communicated directly from the rail
instead Of from the overhead wire or
the storage compartment under the
floor Of the car. There will be no poles,
no dangerous network of wires, no dis
figurement and no danger TO any one
passing over the rails. At the same
time the propplSive force will operate
with an ease and an absence OF noise
that have not distinguished the present
system. If the Wizard Of Mealo Park
can do this, and we have no reason to
doubt he can do whatever he says ne
can, the world will have one more
reason to bless his genius.

Spw York's Democratic senator

New York Star. That election Of
David Il. Hill as United States senator
Tor New York is an accomplished fact is
subject for patriotic cOngratuIa.iCn, not
only in the Empire state, but throughout
the union. Beyond question. Senator
Hill will. in short time, take rank with
the foremost in the Federal council of
Rates His long Legislative experience
and comprehensive knowledge of parlia-
uentary law will render his service valu-
able even with respect TO senatorial pro
3edare His direct and temperate, but
eogent. eloquence will spread power
ful Influence throughout the country
4Som q central arena. New Workers who
know him best will not look for any effort
At sudden theatric display. but for the
exhibition, when occasion arises, of the
ripe fruits of legal culture and trained
craftsmanship.
The choice in Joint convention was
made by the full democratic majority of
two; the eighty-one votes for David B.
Hill including those of every democratic
member OF each legislative body. and the
iull republican strength of seveniv>nine
votes being polled for William nj Evarts
Thus there has reached in fulfillment the
announcement, exclusively made in the
View York Star IN the early morning of
she 9th of last November, that the popu
lar vote on the day preceding had secured
democratic legislative majority on joint
ballot and the election of democrat to
The United States senate.
There is nosufficient ground for the opin-
;on that any other eminent citizen chosen
Nv the democratic Caucus would not have
been elected by the same vote which Gov.
Hill received. Yet it is certain that to no
other New Yorker available for the con-
hest would the unanimous support of his
sllow democrats have been accorded with
70 great enthusiasm and with such univer-
al satisfaction to the people Of the state.
