WHAT ABOUT THIS?

To the Age-Herald:
 The city's garbage wagons are dumping all sorts of filthy trash iu the vicinity of Fifth and Ninth avenues and Twenty eighth and Thrtysecoud streets, north. Ali this is within the corporate limits. We will admit the city gives the inhabitants of that neigh borhood no police protection, no gas light nor electric light apparatus, nor fire plugs within more than half mile, not to mention other conveniences, or the lack of conveniences, as a consequence Of which the houses are not occupied so num- erously, owing 10 the scant egress and in- gress and other perpetrations in ficted. To all this we have been acquiescing, taking it good humoredly. But here is the rub: When the city bequeaths 10 us it's rot we rise to make a solemn and earnest protest, and respectfully call the proper authori- ties' attention To it-tha grand jury, for in- stance, il the city will refuse to protect US, and we think it is their duty. They in- corporated us recently and demand their rights-their taxes. EQUAL RIGHTS.

BLOUNT COLLEGE.
The Burning of the Building Causes Temporary Close of the School.
 Will Reopen in September.

As will be remembered by readers of the AGE HERALD, Blount college, situated a5 Bloun tsville, was destroyed by fire on the morning of January 5 last. The following card will explain the decision arrived at by the board of directors:
 TO OUR PATRONS AND FRIENDS. The burning of Blount college on the morning of January 5, 1895, makes it nec- essary to make the following statements: 1. We, the directors of said college, lost about S25, 900 in said building, besides the loss of our library and one of the best museums in the state, and we are not fnan- cially able to rebuild just at present, but hope to have fine building in which to open our school in September.
 2. As our school was large, having about eighty boarding pupils besides our local patronage, and as we have TO suitable building in which to conduct the school, we have decided to suspend the school till Septem Der, hoping to open in September with our present faculty, who have re- gently resigned. s.

 But while 1t may not be needed now, when the days of retrenchment and reform come around 1t can be used to pay oDe- quarters interest on S115, ,000 per cent bonds. If not needed for that it would add four or five teachers to our public schools. Or if 1t is the proper thing to recede from every advanced stand, why not use this Sl7C0 recede and restore some of the cuts made in the salaries of teachers who are left. That would distribute the appropria- ton between many people and make 1t more popular.
 However, if this S17o0 is too insignificant to Do these things it could be invested in botlonnieres 10 go with the white gloves on bur policemen.

aA GIRLS WAY"

Pretty, winsome, petite Gladys Wallis, whose term of service with popular Will liam H. Crane brought her prominently to the light in the theatrical world, will on Thursday evening next be heard here as the stellar attraction, with the Patti Rosa Co m- edy company in support. IA Girl Way - surely complicated, is the title of the eff u- sion to claim attention on that date. It is not necessary to enter into details as to the dramatic work further than its title sug- gesis.
 Of the bright particular star much of interest can be said. The public, ever ready to receive Q new aspirant from the realm Of Momus, have watched the career of Miss Wallis from her debut, when as an aspir- ing amateur she appeared as Juliet ip Shakespeare ideal love tragedy, with the celebrated Frederick Paulding as the Romeo.
 Since that evcntful performance the win some little lady had abandoned her ambi- tions to the emotional and taken the thread (comedy) which is most suited to her Style.

THINGS DRAMATIC.

Mime. Sissieretta Jones, better known as the Black Patti, the famous colored prima donna soprano, comes to us tonight, when she will sing at O'Brien'e, assisted by a company of artists, consisting of Mathiide Walter, contrato; Vincenzo Bielletto, Orme Darvall, basso; Felix Heink, pian- ist, and little Ruby, the phenomenal child dancer. Mime. Jones' artistic position is unquestioned, and she ranks easily with the greatest artists of today. Ia fact, at the Pittsburg exposition some two or three years ago Mime. Jones sang with such art ists as Materna, Scalchi and Campanini, and shared honors with all. Of her com pany Vincenzo Bieletto, the well-known tenor, has also achieved great success sing ing in such roles as Edgardo in Lucia di Lammermoor, 1urridu in "Cavalleria Rusticana'' and Faust in Gounod's mas- terpiece, playing to Louise Natili's Mar guerite. lie is tall, handsome and has a finely cultivated voice, which he uses to the best advantage. Little Ruby IS certain to excite great interest, her graceful danc- ing and clever posing appealing alike to all. Of one of her appearan ceg Ia London the Daily Telegraph remarks: "The artist who met with the best reception, how ever-for all the ladies joined in the ap- plause-was the bewitching child, little Ruby, who danced herself into the affec- tions of all present and left the theater laden with flowers, dolls and bonbons.

'tFRIENDS.''

Tomorrow night the patrons of O. O'Brien' 8 will have the pleasure of witnessing the successful comedy drama, ''Friends, ,' which has had such phenomenal run in New York at the Standard theater. It is a bright and wholesome play, abounding with pure wit and amusing situations. The dialogue is well written, the charac- ters sketched with discrimination and con- sistency and the incidents handled with tact. The company has been carefully se- lected and embraces nearly all of the orig inal cast. It consists of the author, Ed win Milton Royle, who, before gaining celebrity as a playwright, was leading member of Booth, Barrett, Madison Square and salvini companies; Lucins Henderson, the actor pianist, whose piano recitas during the action of the play has created furore among music lovers, was formerly with Salvini; Harry Allen, a leading character actor, who gained bis reputation with Mccullough in the palmy days of the old California theater; Seleua Fetter Royle, beautiful woman and tai. ented actress, who contributed not little to the successes of Robson & Crane as their leading lady, and E. D. Lyons, formerly a valued member of Henry Irving's London Lyceum company. With such notable company the initial production of ssFriends" in this city should draw a large house, for more newspaper space has been devoted to this play in the way of favorable editorial and magazine criticism by well known writers than any produc- tion in recent years.
