says: Suppose that the gross receipts

companies on the road, each of whose
average weekly receipts exceeds $4,000.
Take the following dozen, for example:
TheBostonians, jefferson, Nat Goodwin,
Richard Mansfield, John Drew, Fanny
Davenport Denman Thompson, De-
Wolf Hopper, Sowing the Wind Sans

could be punched by the dozen whose

figures cited above. In this connection
it is interesting to mention that the net
profits of the last two years of the

In spite of occasional announcements
to the contrary the Symphony orchestra
composed of Scranton and Wilkes-Barre
musicians continues to flourish and re-
hearsals occur with regularity under
direction of Mr. Hemberger. This or
ganzation is truly deserving Of the sup
port of music loving people of both
cities. The members are prompted
solely by desire to educate the masses
with a view to creating interest in a
better class Of music in northeastern
Pennsylvania. The Symphony orches-
ira, an institution heretofore unknown
in this section, is something in which
our citizens should take pride.
The first Twilight organ recital of
George b. Carter's second series will be
given at Elm Park Methodist Episcopal
church New Years Day at p. M, at
which hour the doors will close. Mr..
Carter will be assisted by Mrs. Cecilia
Niles, the soprano soloist of the Eng
lish Lutheran church Of New York city,
who will sing the "Scena and Aria"
from Weber's Der Freischutz," 1.-The
Butterfly (waltz song), Gelb; "The
Lord Is My Light" Marsh. Mr.. Car
ter's selections will irclude: Rhejn-
berger's Pastoral Sonata" overture,
Bila; adagio, Merkel; song without
words, Schubert; overture, Rossini. To
hear this fine programme an offering
is expected. That the people appreciate
Mr.. Carter's efforts in giving fine pro-
grammes at a price in reach of all, the
immense crowd of Thanksgiving Day
| proves.
Miss Gertrude Holyoke French,
whose article upon harp traditions at
tracted so much favorable comment
! from readers of the Christmas Tribune,
has decided to remain in Scranton and
give instruction upon the harp and
| mandolin. Miss French is a pupil of
Heinrich Schuecker solo harpist of the
| Boston Symphony orchestra, the lead
| ing harpist Of the country. Last sea-
son she was engaged as teacher Of the
harp at the DePauw University School
| Of Music, at Greencastle, Ind, and
brings the highest recommendations
from that institution.
From present indications Carbondale
will soon equal Scranton as musical
city that is noted for the interest 1t does
not take in entertainments of a strictly
musical character given within its linn
its. The much-talked-of Christmas
I eisteddfod held in the Pioneer City on
Tuesday was attended by an audience
of fourteen in the afternoon, while
about thirty spectators listened to the
concert in the evening.
Miss Eleanor Mauser, late leader OF
the Ladies White orchestra, has been
re-engaged as musical director at the
rockingham. 1t is not unlikely that
the music at that theater will in the
near future be furnished by another
orchestra composed almost entirely OF
lady performers.

EARLY trains brought up men who

themselves to the qualification of a NOR

not unnatural, but under the circum-

day morning relief tram returned to
Duluth, bearing 227 survivors of the
burning of Sandstone. The train came
upon the St. Paul and Duluth, the trip
having been made to Sandstone by the
relief party on foot. The surviv-
ors were secured and babes and
small children carried back over the
six-mile trail through the woods. One
hundred and fifty people were
left and second train was
sent for them. The party had to cross
from Miller Station on the st. Paul and
Duluth to Sandstone, six miles distant.
Many bodies were found in the little
town scattered about everywhere. No
attempt has been made to bury them,
and they are rotting in the hot sun.
One building is all that remains at

Everything was burned, but SO far as

That no act Of congress authorizes
any action by the United States against
persons with whom it has no contractual
relations in that regard, to enjoin the
