MIR. FINCH'S PROPOSITION.
City Solicitor Torrcy VIII Cali Councils
Attention to 1t again.

Viewers C. L. Van Mort, John Caw-
ley and Anthony Bauman yesterday
met in the arbitration room Of the court
house to hear testimony concerning the
damage that will be done to the prop
erty of the |. A. Finch company by the
grading of the SHETLAND street ap-
proach to the proposed Linden street
bridge.
The Finch company was represented
by eX-Judge II. A. Knapp and the city
by City Solicitor Torrey. The matter
at issue was discussed for some time
by the viewers, Mr.. Finch and the at
torneys, but no testimony was taken.
Some time ago Mr.. Finch made a pro-
position to the city in which he set
forth that the amount that his com
pany would take in compensation for
the land that will be taken from it by
the opening of Swetland street.
This proposition was never acted
upon by councils. City Solicitor Torrey
said that he would bring the matter to
the attention of councils again, and
said he felt convinced that 1t would
take action of some kind on the proposi-
ton. If the city decided to accept the
offer then the proceedings before the
viewers would be unnecessary.
1t was therefore decided to continue
the hearing for three weeks to give
Mr.. Torrey an opportunity to call the
attention of councils to the offer,

In LOCAL TlIEATERS.

Tim Murphy and Comedians Rich
ards and Garfield will present Lem
Kettle" at the Academy of Music this
evening. Lem Kettle" is consistent
comedy, describing rural life in Della
ware county, this state. It's charac-
ters are said to be easily recognized
types, the episodes mirthful and whole
some, while threaded through 1t all Is
q tender little love story.
There Is no actor that we know of
who has such decidedly domestic fol-
lowing as has Charles II. Ellis, the
sweet-voiced German comedian, who
comes to the Academy on Friday even
ing. In fact, his principal patrons are
noticed to be families-people of domes-
tic temperaments. His plays are so diff
ferent from the others, so clean and
wholesome so free from vulgarity, they
are also a pleasure to see. Good, clean,
moral plays are what the public want
nowadays, not stuff that Is served up
in the name of drama or comedy, and
which is vulgar and inslpid
The rockingham will resound again
Saturday afternoon and evening with
the soul-stirring strains of Innes' fa-
such q sensation here few weeks ago.
"War and Peace" will be produced
again at both concerts but the balance
of the programme will be entirely
changed from what was given before,
excepting the "Trip to the Worlds
Fair" which was so pleasing to all,
The same glorious vocal quartette will
participate, and 1t may be remarked
that Miss Miner, the pleasing soprano,
Is adding much to her laurels every
where. At Detroit recently she created
genuine sensation, being repeatedly
recalled and cheered with well-de-
served bravos. "War and Peace" has
met with the same grand sensational
reception everywhere.
Bronson Howard's great comedy,
young Mrs. Winthrop" will be seen
at the Academy of Music Saturday
evening. For eight months this ex-
plicit comedy delighted New York at
the Madison Square theater. Then 1t
accomplished successful runs in Bos-
ton. Philadelphia and Chicago. This
season 1t Is being given an elaborate
production and will be taken all over
the United States from Maine to Cali
fornia, Canada to the Gulf The COM
pany organized for the production in

1T WAS A CIRCO.COMEDY.
That's What Nellie Mcllenry Produced az
the Academy Of Music.

the Academy Of Music.
"a Night at the Circus" which is
labelled on the house bill as 'circo-
comedy" was produced at the Academy
of Music last night by Nellie McHenry
and company.
1t is a combination OF horse play and
very ordinary specalties with the
somewhat clever Miss McHenry as the
central figure The fair sized audience
appeared to enjoy the performance and
Miss McEenry is probably fulfilling her
mission of the boards if she provides a
form OF amusement in "a Night at the
Circus that is acceptable to a portion
of the theater-goers Of the country.
AS long as there is a demand for such
alleged comedy managers will continue
to furnish it to the exclusion of attrac-
tions that possess real merits, and it is
after all, perhaps the fault of the dear
public that such performances just now
occupy such a conspicuous place in the
theatrical world.
