THE CHARITY HOSPITAL.

EDITOR BAzoo: Will you allow
me t. express myself in regard TO the
charity hospital. The ladies VINO have
the undertaking il hand would do
better to help the hospital along to
start with what funds they have on
hand, and if they cannot commence
building, what is the matter with
renting. Would not the NJ, K. & T..
hospital willingly let them have a
ward for themselves in their hospital
where such poor unfortunates, as for
instance the painter who fell off the
smokestack could be cared for, and I
also wish to suggest that public inter-
est would develop greater in the
project, if it were actually started. Do
not wait till you have the amount, but
get start with what you have and
according to my humble judgment
many charitable cit zens could be
found in this our excellent town that
would pay, say for the maintenance
OF one bed in the ward. Only get q
move on you and show the actual pro.
gress Of the thing. instead Of first get
ting the money together and then 70
and build which would take up too
much time, but act 1t once.
Yours, truly, F. p.

EVERYBODY LIKES 1T

.The Midnight Alarm" as given at
the Corinne Lyceum last evening is
one of those pieces that everybody
likes because it is everyday life, made
doubly interesting by the introduction
of a few more sensations and narrow
escapes than usually happen off the
stage.
The scene of the attempt to wreck a
"South Shore Express" and the fire
scene are very realistic and exciting.
1t is a five-act melo-drama and sure to
draw good houses. -Bafalo Enquirer.
