Mrs. Pierce made the unGrateful role of
Lady Creamy not only Interesting but
agreeable. Miss lola Honeywell, whose
sphere Of activity WAS limited to some
foul lines and much busting, as Graham,
q maid, made the most of her opportuni-
ties.
The only fault that could be found with
the performance is that which is common
to all amateur first nights, and a great
many that are not amateur. That is a
lack of rapidlty in the actiou-a wander
Ing around after cueS-diverS pausipg be-
tween speeches and several momentary
waits when the actor should have burst
in npon the scene. But even this ap
peared to a much less marked degree than
mas been seen here for 10, these many
moons, So that on the whole, the newest
department of the CLUBS activity may
Congratulate itself on its fine showing,
and the tact that it has reached at a
bound the heights to which many an
other similar organization has been
climbing.
The committee in charge of the enter
tainment comprised Messrs. A. K. Little
field. George E. Hogg, w. r. Starrett.
Edwin r. Case, G. ii. Dickson, George
M. Christian and j. Frank Green. Mr..
George Christian. in addition to his his
trionlc feats, acted as stage manager as
well.
THE CONCLUDING DANCE.
AS the curtain fell the attaches of the
club began to pile the chairs at the side
OF the room and clear the floor for danc-
ing, in which the younger element of the
audience participated. Cranmer's orches-
ira furnished music. Among those who
were il attendance ere Mr.. and Mrs. G..

A Most Riehteous Strike.


Here is n more strike in which the
strikers appear to have decidedly the
right of it. The engineers of the New
I York Steam Heating Company have
hitherto been paid twenty-five cents
bran hour for ten hours work a day.
leeThat highly favored monopoly, en-
Hjoying a public franchise of almost
incalculable value, proposes to cut
them down to twenty cents an hour
and make them work twelve hours a
day.
The work of these men is hard
physical labor, performed under try
ing conditions. The responsibility of
their position is simply fearful. The
plant they attend is capable of wreck
ing half New York, if any mistake
We're made in it's management.
The effort to make the men work
twelve hours is an outrage on the
imperilled public. The attempt to
make them work at twenty cents an
hour is an outrage on them. This is a
case in which the State ought to inter-
fere at once for the protection of the
public.

He has a wonderfully sensitive touch,
and can maket the frail instrument either

inner soul or sound a paen of thapksgiv-

without his assistance the entertainment
would not be quite as perfect as il was.
The feature of the entertainment, how
ever, was Mr.. and Mrs. Henry F. Woods
