The Law Is Now On.

Hares are plentiful in all parts of the
state, and especially so just over the line
in Rehoboth. Reports of their killing
have become so numerous that the Game
and L ish Association desires to call atten-
tion to Chapter 50, Section 1, of the Public
Statutes.
Every person who shall take, kill or
destroy any rabbit, hare or gray squirrel
between the first day OF January and the
first day OF September shall forfeit the
sum OF five dollars for each and every
rabbit, hare or gray squirrel so taken,
killed or destroyed" The Massachusetts,
law in this particular is about the same.

Meeting with the highest grade school


The Basement.
The basement is very large and is
divided in two, the front part being for
the boys. On each side are urinals and
closets the former of slate and the latter
being Of the patent cremating kind. At
night an iron cover Is put on, hot fire
started in furnace and the heat passed
under CRATE on which all excrement Is
collected reducing everything by means
OF strong drought all gasses etc. through
day pass to the chimney. This is some
thing new and it is expected that its
working will be very successful, doing
away with all argument against sewer
and cesspool connection or rather
strengthening the argument against
them. There are two furnaces
for heating the halls and ante rooms and
two for heating the school rooms, while
there are two smaller ones used in con-
nection with the closets. The six are ex-
pected to burn 80 tons of coal during the
winter. The Easements have cemented
floors and furnish room for play ground
on rainy days. The building
is piped for gas and water and has all the
latest conveniences. The finishing touches
are just being put on and il necessary
school could open there in week. The
appropriation though is so nearly run out
that it is doubtful IL there
is sufficient left TO grade
the school lot. The work has been done,

Pnrk-Pefe Baker.

Notwithstanding his many engagements
here, Pete Baker, the German dialect COM
edian, seems to retain his old-time popular
ity, as his appearance at the Park yester-
day afternoon and last night drew large
audiences to that house, and his production
Of me New Chris and Lena met with
a fattering reception. Baker is not a
youngSter any more, but he seems quite
as active and graceful and sings as we'll
as he did a oozen years ago. He is al
ways a favorite with his audiences on ac-
count OF his pleasing stage address and
dashing manner The new songs In Chris
and Lena" are of the catchy kind, and the
play is otherwise much improved by the
introduction of new lines and others feat
ures. The star is particularly pleasing in
his songs. while Miss George gives him
good support in the opposite character.
Her singing is a feature, as is her dancing.
The principal characters are all assumed
by capable people, and the play Is mounted
with appropriate scenery. Chris and
Lena" will be given again to-day and to-
morrow. but will be withdrawn on Thurs
day in favor of THE Emigrant."

Amusement Notes.

The advance sale of seats for the en-
gagement Of comedian William II. Crane at
the Grand Opera House, the last three
nights of the week, began yesterday morn
ing, and the demand was SO great that
large audiences are assured at all Of the
performances. There was quite a crush at
the boX-office when 1t opened, and the line
was unbroken until nearly Il O'Clock. Mr..
Cranes engagements here have always
been marked by unusual interest, and his
visit this season will have an added inter-
est by reason of the fact that he is to
present his new play, Brother john" in
which he has met with SO much success in
ell of the large cities of the country. The
comedy is altogether different from any
thing in which the eminent comedian has
ever been see In here, and is described as a
play of unusual merit. Brother john will
be presented Thursday and Friday nights
and at the Saturday matinee. the engage
ment COZ Guiding with a revival of Lloyd
and Rosenfeld's entertaining comedy, 'The
Senator" Although the sale is already
large, there are quite q number of choice
seats left.

Empire-Gus Williams.

Gus Williams, supported by a capable
company, began a three-days' performance
of April Fool" at the Empire yesterday
afternoon. There is enough plot in the
play TO be as a string on which TO hang a
collection of good specially acts. Sager
Midgley, as Sammy Kriggs, is fully as
amusing as he was with Jarbeau a few
years ago. Lillian Elma Is a soprano OF
considerable merit. Others in the company
are Fannie Midgely, Mynnee Burroughs,
Flora Redding, Julia Barton and Charles
II. Burroughs who, in addition to his vocal
efforts, introduces an artistic whistling solo.
Mr.. Williams's whistling solo Is a strong
feature of the speciality part of the perform
aIce. Gus Williams is an excellent German
dialect comedian, and his performances are
always entertaining. April Fool' is among
the best plays he has ever had and in it
he does some excellent character acting.
The performance is well worth seeing.

The Lisfemnnn COncer

The members of the Bernhard Liste-
mann Concert Company, which appears
at Tomlinson Hall tonight, are all
~so,oists OF considerable reputation.
the most prominent among them,
besides Listemann and Giese, being
G. b. Van Santvoord, the fiutist, and
Jacques Benevente, the veteran viola and
clarinet player. Most Of the company have
played together so long that their ensemble
work is excellent, while their solos are of
the very highest quality. Among the COM
posers whose names ppear on the pro-
gramme are Liszt, Paganini, Gounod Dem
erSsemann and BiZet. While the programme
is mostly of a classical nature, it is not
entirely so. The most noteworthy number
Is the Dance Macabre." by Saint-Saens,
which Is probably the most realistic piece
of legitimate music ever written. The
scene is a graveyard at midnight, In winter,
an ideal place for witchcraft and the su-
pernatural, and the effects produced are
very suggestive of ghouls prowling about
and skeletons dancing with sepulchral glee.
The Listemann Club is the only organiZa-
ton attempting anything Of the kind, the
alpine Storm" by Gilmore'S Band being
something of the same dramatic order.

MOdjeska's New Play.

Madam Modjeska, with her husband,
Count Bozenta. held a reception In their
private car at the foot of Tennessee street
last night. The Madam does not play this
week, and decided to remain in Indianap-
oils over night and proceed on her way to
Chicago to-day. She Will be in I~ndianap-
oils a few hours next Tuesday at a recep-
ton. and will be absent then until her en-
gagement, which begins one week from
Thursday. Modjeska will give two per-
formanceS of her new play, "Magda"-Fri
day night and Saturday matinee-when In
dianapolis will have an opportunity TO see
her in what she unhesitatingly proclaims
the greatest of all her numerous charac.
ters. The play is a straight translation OF
Hermann S~udermann's "Heimath," praised
by. many as greater than any of Ibsen,
being free of the Ibson morbidity and
equally interesting In detail. Others have
condemned the story as name and without
excuse, but these latter opinions were
mostly written in New York after ii had
made a pronounced hit in Chicago, some
thing that condemns any production in the
eyes of hypercritical New Workers.
