Their Tour of Wales,

The Pont-y-Pridd Daily of recent
date says: 1.-THE Haydn Evans Con-
cert company from America will give
a concert at the New Town hall,
Pontypridd, next Monday evening, Oct
(Mabons Day.. A splendid pro-
gramme has been arranged, and all
who attend the concert are assured of
real musical treat.
"Mr. Evans company has been ap-
pearing throughout South Wales for
the past two weeks with great success.
In no town where they have appeared
have the American singers failed to
receive q warm and hearty reception,
and the large audiences that have at
tended the concerts have been charmed
and delighted by the fine programme
that has been so we'll rendered. The
soprano of Miss Sadie e. Kaiser has
excited the highest praise Of the crit
les, who are unanimous In the assertion
that she is superior to any singer heard
in South Wales for a long time. The
wonderful violin playing OF Miss Julia
c. Allen has been Of such high de-
gree of excellence that she has been
compelled to respond to several en-
cores each night. The chairman of the
concert will be g. r. Jones (Caradog)."
Other newspaper notices. from the old
country indicate that the American
singers, particularly Miss Kaiser, are
being received with Increasing favor.
The tour has been prolonged two weeks.

How Tommy Kirow, Of Great Bend, Cap.

HOW lOIutuy huOWp VI oiSat Dcuu, up
lures Rural Delegates.
One of the most unique and best
known public characters In the counties
Of Bradford, Susquehanna, Wayne and
Wyoming, is Tommy Kilrow, Of Great
Bend. He Is a Republican worker,
comparatively young man and is fam
Gus for his store of the dryest kind of
humor. He is also wit but his most
prominent characteristic is an humor-
GUS nature which cannot be withstood.
He has never been known as Mr."
Kilrow, the name Tommy being his
title from the time he first voted. He
Is the son of a hotel-keeper, but, not
withstanding the surroundings of early
life, he neither drinks nor smokes. He
never misses a political convention of
any party in the four counties men,
toned and to Tommy, on such occa-
sions, Is relegated the task of influence
ing the artful farmer delegate. He usu-
ally performs his mission in such an
original and daring way as would prove
disastrous to any but one who pos
sessed the qualities peculiar to Tommy
Kilrow.
A sample Of his ability to rise to any
occasion was overheard at recent
Susquehanna county convention. An
incredulous farmer disputed the ability
of Hon. James Il. Dubois, Of Great
Bend. Tommy with his hat over his
brow, forehead wisely wrinkled and
hands thrust into trousers pockets
waited until his victim had finished
then took him aside and changed the
wondering farmers belief by this story:
Now, see here s., you make your
self ridiculous; Jim Dubois is the smart
est man in Pennsylvania today. Fact
/ know what I'm talking about, and III
prove it, too
This world is $4,000 miles in circum-
ference, isn't it? 1t takes twenty-four
hours for 1t to make one revolution and
consequently revolves over a thousand
miles an hour, don't it? Now, Jim Du-
bois claims that some kind of machine
suspended stationary for one hour in
mid-air and then lowered would land
its passengers thousand miles from
home, In Chicago, for the sake Of argu-
ment."
wall, l guess 'twould," said Farmer
S., but how are ye goin' ter keep the
burned thing in the air an not be fol-
lerin the ground along"
"Oh," said the ever ready Tommy,
that's for the scientific men to decide
Dubois presented the idea originally
but he's too busy to follow 1t up. Yes
sir, Jim Dubois is mighty smart man."
Farmer S. finally allowed he
thought so too, and Tommy left him
converted and started on hunt for an
other tiller of the soil cropping in politi-
cal darkness

The play abounds in comedy and dra-

dealing with life on the railroads In the
far west, in which many realistic and IA

Power of the Press" This Is undoubted-

in New York and is given an unusually
elaborate production, several of the
scenes being as fine as anything ever be-

lobby of the Imperial hotel on Upper
Broadway ship-yard with a vessel on
the stocks and the men at work, bank

and effective. The incident on which the
play Is founded actually occurred and

Last year has been very bad one
for the railway companies, the receipts
being seriously affected by the coal
strikes. Until last year there had been
no actual decrease in the gross receipts
of the railway companies for seven
years. The reduction last year, al
though it does not actually stand alone,
Is without precedent in regard to its
amount. The falling off Is due en-
tirely to the decrease Of the goods traf-
fic. AS regards railways 1893 stands out
as the worst year on record.

MIR. CLEVELAND WE'LL
The President Denies RumOrs as
to His Physical Condition,
Aud at the Same Time Scores Menda-
ciOus CorrespOndents-His Color Good
and Voice Hearty and Strong.

WASHINGTON, Feb. PA representa-
tive of the Associated Press saw President
Cleveland this evening at the executive
mansion regarding the reports that have
been circulated in some newspapers for the
past two or three days to the effect that
the President was suffering from serious
malady and was about to have an opera
ton performed. Concerning these reports
the President said:
81 have been engaged every day in my
office on public business and have every
day seen the people who called-Senators,
Representatives and others. Nothing would
have been easier than to ascertain the abso-
lutte falsity of these reports. L am forced
TO conclude that there Is an epidemic OF
mendacity emanating from the dull and
stupid brains of some CT these correspond
ents; they must be influenced either by a
desire to deceive the public or to annoy
those affected by their disrepltable work.
Those who read newspapers should under
stand the extent 20 which their credulity
Is calculated upon.
When the reporter entered the Presidents s
business office at the White House this
evening he found Mr. Cleveland and Secre-
tary Thurber engaged In clearing the desh
of the accumulation of public business. Mr..
Cleveland never looked better in his life.
His eve was bright his color good and his
voice hearty and strong. To-day he received
a. large number of callers in his Office and
at His shook hands with $50 people in the
East Room. At o'clock he drove about
the city for more than an hour in an open
carriage, and tonight he is hard at work
at his desk where he will remain until long
after midnight. This night is no exception
to the general rule. 1t can be said with
perfect assurance that all reports to the
effect that the President is not in good
health are entirely without foundation.

A P0PULIST RESIGNS.
Att0rney-General Artz's Accounts We're
Not satisfactory to LewelIing.

TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. A-W. j. Stagg
the expert accountant, who has been in
vestigating Adjutant-general Artz's ac-
counts, made his report to the Governor to-
day. The expert reports show that the Ad-
jutant-generaFs accounts and vouchers are
not kept In the same forms as those used
by the State Auditor, and for that reason
they do not agree, except in the general
footings. The report shows that Artz drew
the balance of the contingent fund for the
use of his office at the close of the fiscal
year, and that he also drew a voucher for
$50 for William Baker There is nothing
in the office TO explain them Upon the re-
ccipt OF the report OF expert Stagg Governor
Lewelllng addressed a letter TO Artz in
which he said he regretted to inform him
the result of the examination was not salts
factory TO him. but he would withhold judg-
ment. hoping he would make satisfactory
explanation
When Artz received the Governors letter
he Immediately made his explanation and
rendered his resignation to take effect at
the earliest possible moment which will per-
sion.
Governor Lewelling says he will not act
on Artz's resignation until Monday or
Tuesday. He went to Wichita tonight and
wants TO give Artz ample time to make an
inventory OF the States property under
his control he requests in his letter of
resignation. Asked IL he intended to ac-
cept Artzs resigna tion, the Governor de-
clined TO state. He said 1t would not be
proper for him to anticipate his action.
His general conversation. however, leaves
little room to doubt that il has been SET
tied that the resignation will be accepted

$4,000 of Her Money.

NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-Some light was

ISOLATION OF CONSuMPTlyES.
stringent Order Requiring that Victims

TO MAKE A QUORUM.
Rule Tint VIII he Presented to the
Democratic Caucus.

WASHINGTON, Feb. A-The call for a
caucus of Democrats to agree upon a rule
for recording members present but not vot-
ing in order to make quorum, is growing
I'm favor. The call now bears the names of
122 Democrats. 1t was. handed to Repre-
sentative Holman to-day, the chairman of
the caucus Members say that this matter
must be settled within their party as soon
as the Bland bill has been disposed of.
Representative Paynter, of Kentucky,
who started the call, has drawn up new
rule which he thinks overcomes the OBJ
jections of many members to his draft OF
a rule for recording those present and not
voting without fining them. This rule in
corporates a new principle; that the affir-
native votes on call must be a majority
of those officially recorded both as voting
and as present, and not voting In order
that the vote shall be a legal one to decide
the pending question. The proposed rule
is as follows:
But should a quorum fail to vote and
the point be made that no quorum had
voted there shall be a call of the House
and the yeas and nays on the pending
question shall at the same time be ordered.
The Clerk shall call the roll and each men,
Der as he answers to ms name or is brought
before the House under the proceedings
of the call of the House shall vote on the
pending question. If the member fails to
vote or refuses. when present TO answer
TO his name, then amy member can an
nounce to the Speaker that a member, CIV
ing his name, is present and failed to
vote, or answer to his name on such call;
thereupon, the Speaker shall direct the
Clerk to note the name of such member on
the journal as present IL those voting on
the question and those declining to vote or
answer to their names shall together make
a majority of the House, then the Speaker
shall declare that Quorum IS constituted
and the pending question shall be decided,
providing the affirmative vote Is a majority
of those voting and those present and not
voting"
Three propositions for a new rule have
been drafted which will find supporters in
the caucus that devised by Journal Clerk
Crutchfeld for flning members one days
pay the resolution by Representative Dear
nond for a fine of $50 and the latest plan of
Representative Paynter. But none or these
can be made effective for breaking the
present deadlock, because the caucus will
not meet until the Il. n bill is disposed
OF in some way.
