The Theatres.

Barry and Fay was, for a long time, a
Trademark for fun and jollity of the
rough, farcical order. Hugh Fay, JT., a
member of the firm, amassed considerable
wealth and retired from the stage. Will
liam Barry went on alone and a few
weeks since played a successful engage
ment in Philadelphia, and now his old
time partner has returned to the stage in
a play called "Old Chums." Fay was al
ways the most unctious of the two coined
ians and had the largest following. "Old
Chums" is a temperance lecture, and a
very strong one at that, and has to dc
with the re-caiming of a profigate and
drunken husband to be an honored and
respected citizen. The play is said to be
an extremely strong one, and even more
so than the famous Ten Nights in Bar
room," although it is treated in comedy
vein. 1t is now on, at the Walnut Street
Theatre.
This week the Columbia College ORA
matte Club have engaged the Park The
atre for the week, but the duties of the
members are such that they will be I'M
able to remain in Philadelphia the entire
week. and therefore will give but four per.
formances. beginning on the night Of
Thursday and including the Saturday
matinee. The Columbia College Drama
tic Club is to give performance of Ivan
hoe" As is well known, this is Sjl
Walter Scott's beautiful poem, and the
college boys present every fetching bur
lesque upon the subject. This perform
ance has just been given in New York al
the Broadway Theatre for a week, anC
was then favorably compared with the
performance of professional actors. Thei
female characters are all taken by the un
der-graduates of the college, as is the cas-
with the Mask and Wig Club of this city
The hospital of the University of Penn
sylvania will benefit by these perform
ances, and the benefit is under the patron
age of Mrs. Lippincott, Mrs. Chas. Emor,
Smith, Mrs. VIM. Weightman, Jr., Mrs
Hamilton Disston, Mrs. Arratt and Mrs
Chas. Curtis Harrison. 1t is bound to b
a great social success.

Democratio Plans.

At the meeting of the nine hold-ovel
Democratic state senators at Trenton. yes
terday, it was decided to adhere to the
programme of obstruction which has been
talked over SO much lately. They agreed
to do everything in their power to pre-
vent the Republican majority from organ
izing.
The point of the Democrats is that the
Senate is a continuous body, and as such
alone has the authority to organize the
body. There are IS hold-over Senators
altogether, nine Democrats and four Re-
publicans. Nine being majority of all,
according to the logic of the Democrats
they have a quorum and are perfectly
competent to transact business.
That any business which they may
transact will come to nothing, since the
Republican House will not recognize them
they are well aware, but the game is one
of obstruction, and the only purpose is the
stoppage of the wheels of legislation, and
this in furtherance of the scheme to keep
the Democratic office-holders in their
positions and the Democratic partisan
laws on the statute books. The Demo
Gratis quote various provisions of the con.
stitution to support their attitude, and il
Is SAID tnat not only O0VefnOr WertS, Out
also Attorney General Stockton and Sec
rotary of State Kelsey intend to act with
the obstructionists.
From Attorney General Stockton, it is
said has come the plan of campaign. The
Democrats felt certain last night that the
four hold-over Republican Senators will
not meet with the nine Democrats to-day.
The latter will elect a presiding officer
and other officers. The Republicans in
the Senate chamber or elsewhere will dc
the same thing and proceed to the trans
action of business. The newly elected
Senators swore themselves in last night,
the Constitution giving the members OF
both Houses the right to administer the
oath or Affirmation to each other.
The Republican Assembly caucus Sc.
lected John |. Holt, of Passaic, for speak
er; j. Herbert Potts, of Hudson, for clerk
Joshua Matlack, of Burlington, for as
sistant clerk journal clerk, John L
Swayze, Sussex. The Republican Sena-
tors only settled on Senator Maurice Rog-
ers of Camden, for president.

THAT sterling Republican journal, the
State Gazette, made its appearance last
week in an entire new dress. with Its size
enlarged by the addition of eight columns.
That the venerable paper-it is over 100
years old-has been improved in appear
ance cannot be questioned. And when
you come to think of it that is about the
only way in which there was possibility
of need for improvements In sound
ness of politics, brightness of news, and bril-
liancy and strength of editorial manage
ment it has long been at the top notch.
There is one point, however, worth consid-
ering, and that is with Its additional eight
columns, the Goeette'S capacity for useful
ness will be enlarged, and those who know
the stalwart journal need have no fears
but that every inch will be used for the
benefit of Republican principles and to
the CONSERVATION of the Democratic party.

The Monmouth Democrat, the leading
organ of its party in Monmouth county,
published column article in its issue last
week on the Bradley issue, pronouneing
all that has been written and said about
the alleged attempt to cheat him out of
his seat the veriest bosh. Among other
things it says
1.-THE nine Democrats would be power
less to prevent the eleven Republicans
from organizing the Senate, if they wanted
to, for with the four Republicans holding
over they could meet and under the pro-
visions of the constitution could swear
each other in, and being majority would
have to be recognized as the lawful Senate
of the State The Democrats by staying
away could not prevent quorum, neither
if they were IN attendance could they
prevent the majority from swearing in
the new members and pertecting a law
full organization. Besides, it is altogether
unlikely that the Democratic leaders
would countenance any such proceedings
as were suggested. They are sensible
men, and understand that the party has
already as much of load to carry as ii
can we'll get along with, and they will not
be likely to do anything to increase that
load
'As to the charges against Mr.. Bradley
they are of the silliest character, and will
not bear the slightest scrutiny. There is
no objection, we believe, on the part Of
himself or his friends to have all the facts
in his canvass oyerhauled, but it would
only result in making those engaged in i
figure in a very ridiculous light before thu
people of the State. The investigation
however, cannot be ordered until the Sen
ate is organized, and that will not be un
til Mr.. Bradley has been sworn and takel
his seat. AS to referring the matter to tn,
Supreme Court, that is the silliest part 0
the whole statement. The Senate itsel
is the judge of the qualifications of it
own MEMBERSHIP Court has nothin
whatever to do with it.
'sWe hazard nothing, we believe, il
saying that no attempt will be made t.
prevent him from taking his seat. On tn
other hand, if it can be shown that b,
violated any part of the law during tn,
canvass, or that any fraud was perpetratet
in the election invalidating his rights tt
the seat, we believe that we are justified
from his well-known character in sayins
that he will cheerfully withdraw anC
leave the way clear for new election"
