THEY WERE READY.

But the Wind-up Did Not Take Place a,
Advertised
There were about one hundred residents OF
Cincinnati, Ohio, who had made deliberate
preparations to die at an early date. They
are members of congregation of Seventh
Day Adventists. The excitement began last
Saturday a week ago, at the church, 1876
West Seventh street, after sermon by the
pastor, Elder J. G.. Wood He announced
that the end of the world was at hand, and
exhorted the faithful to give up their earthly
treasures. The women rushed to the altar
and piled up their jewelry and money some
OF tu7 men gave their watches, and three OF
four actually made out checks and de
posted them with the pastor The pro
ceeds Of the gift offering were sent to Battle
Creek, Mich, the headquarters Of the denomi
nation.
All last week the faithful have been at
prayers almost continually Many had their
shrOuds made and were ready for the end
At the services women went into frances, see.
ing visions and prophecy; men declared that
they seen the heavens opening, and predicted
the immediate coming of Christ AS the
world did not end last Saturday night it was
understood that miscalculaton had been
made, and a new start will be taken. The
church keeps what is given.

PoTrsvILLE, Feb. 5.-There is much more
destitution in this city of wealth and refine.
msnt than many imagine. We have a mum
ber of benevolent societies here who do good
work among the distressed, but the demand
upon them is so great that there is a large
number of worthy cases yet unprovided for.
1t is in the cities and large towns that most of
the suffering exists. In the country places
the people are more in touch with each other,
they discover affections more readily on &C
count of more frequent intercourse and, as
rule, the spirit of brotherly and sisterly love
is stronger than among the other classes.
Pottsville is almost like the great cities in
some respects. A lack of sociRbility make the
majority Of the residents strangers to each
other.
When Congressman Reilly returns to Potts
vile he will be like Rip Van Wrinkle. He
will find his Gretchen and his dog gone,
people who have heretofore taken his hand
will stare at him and wonder who the man
with the hayseed in his hair is. Mr.. Reilly
will no doubt say, How strange My CON
sttueuts don't seem to know their Congress
mau"a and the constituents Will turn their backs
upon him and say, Rot. You are not the
champion we sent 10 Congress. Olr Reilly
went to Washington to look after our interests
and protect them, but he got swallowed by
the Wilson bill and died there. We are now
looking for his successor"
His vote for the Wilson bill has nailed
James B. Reilly's coffin so tight that dyna-
mite won't open it, The mechanics here who
are working half time--and some no time at
all-sre bitter against him and were Reilly a
candidate for Congress now the Democratic
party wouldn't get enough votes to entitle il
10 representation on the ticket at the next
election. Pottsville would give the largest
vote for the Republican candidate and pro.
lection ever cast in the town.
The Wilson bills success in the Demo
cratic Congress has put new life into the
Republican ranks and Mr.. Shoener has done
well in announcing himself early. From
present indications, ne will be the Repub.
lican nominee for Congress Some Of our
leading Republicans who would like to 20 to
Congress. hut who were fearful of the action
Of Congress and hesitated in announcing
themselves, are giving Mr.. Shoeuer credit for
foresight.
The trouble in the local Republican ranks is
not healed yet, but as about three weeks must
elapse before the election takes place the
doctors have a chance to get in their work.

Announcements.

The famous ballet spectacle, the
Black Crook, will be presented in this
city, at the Los Angeles theater, for
three nights and Saturday matinee,
commencing next Thursday. Thie at.
traction is today pre-eminently popular
with all classes OF theater goers, and itp
vitality is unparalleled in the history OF
theatrical enterprises in this country.
1t is nearly 80 years since 1t received
its initial performance at Niblo's garden,
New York city, aud since that time il
has entertained more people than any
drama. comedy, farce, tragedy, spectacle
or stage entertainment that has been
presented to the American public. 1t is
doubtful If any stage production in
Europe has been accorded similar public
favor.
During the three consecutive years il
held the boards at Nibo's garden, COM
mencing in 1865, it was the theatrical
sensation of tine day. Its popularity and
patronage was not alone confined to
New York, but to every section of the
union. In those days big spectacular
productions were confined almost ex.
clusively to the larger citiss, owing tc
lack OF stage and transportation facili-
ties elsewhere, consequently it was only
possible to enjoy these early perform
Ances of the Black Crook in New York
city.
1t is known that people from every
section have iourneyed long distancer
to witness what was then considered to
be the most wonderful ballet scenic
spectacle ever conceived by human
hands and ingenuity.
The Black Crook of 80 years ago was
doubtless q revelation to the theater-
goers of that period, but those who
have witnessed the first and moderr
productions of this masterpiece, declare
that its present form far eclipses all pre-
vlous efforts.
The highest skill of Americas leadin;
scenic artists. stage mechanics, electri
clans and costumers have been EN-
ployed to perfect mise en- scene ant
ensemble, such as cannot be witnessed
anywhere else in this country, with tn
possible exception OF the metropolitan
opera house, New York, during tn
grand Italian opera season.
Aside from the melo-dramatic feat
ures and the indescrihable beauty OF tn
ballets, stage grouping, scenic and il
Illuminating effects OF the Black Crool
performances, there are iRRU@ersbl
