When the Mallory steamer Rio Grande
arrived from Brunswick at Fernandina
Wednesday, she brought force of long
shoreTnen to take the place of the striking
Mallory men here. Her loading was,
therefore, not interfered with. The strike

A meeting of the Fernandina chamber
of commerce has been called for Friday
night to further consider the question of
the erection of a rice mill. The PROPOSE
ton has been slumberfng for some time.
George H. Baer never lost faith in the
enterprise, however, and Ii is at his solicit
tation that the project is again taken up.
He has traded some of his real estate near
Chester for a good engine and otner nee
essaries and believes that now, with
proper effort, the mill can be built. He is
confident that the rice to run the mill will
never be grown until there is a mill to
handle it. II is hoped that some definite
and practical plan may be evolved at the
Friday night meeting.

Alderman Millar was the victim of
misplaced confidence yesterday. Special
Officer Durkin, of the Delaware, Lack
awanna and Western, marched into
the alderman's office about o'clock
in the morning. Juggling a ragged,
dirty-faced boy IA years of age, whom
he found sleeping in a box car near the
station. The little. chap looked as
though he had just been through the
screens in a coal breaker. He was
shivering and crying and plead that
he was nigh famished, and had moth
ing to eat for almost two days.
He told a ready tale about dead
parents and no home nor friends, that
he had "hogged IT. all the way from
Chicago to Hoboken, got into a box
car at the latter place, fell asleep and
awoke to find himself in the hands of
Officer 'Durkin. The alderman ques-
toned him closely about his home,
which he stoutly asserted was In Chi
cago, before his mother died three
months ago. He said his father was
killed in a railway wreck three years
ago. He told long tale about his
wanderings around this world of care.
The alderman was very much i'm
pressed with his story and ordered a
bounteous repast for him, also prom
ising to give him new clothes. The
youth was taken to the police station
after being fed. In the meantime
Chief of Police Simpson received tele-
gram from Portland, Pa, notifying
him to be on the lookout for boy an

chap.

Academy OF Music. .f
The Trilby dancers made their first
appearance In this city last night. 1t
was during the third act of "a Green
Goods Man" at the Academy of Music,
amid blare of music that two white
robed young ladies skipped down to
the foot lights and directly two legs,
barred to the knee, shot upwards. Two
others followed suit and then ensued
the piroqueting and intricate move
merits of the Trilby dance until the
barred feet of the dancers became as red
as their rouge tinted cheeks.
The young women were attired en-
tirely In white save for blue belts about
their waists and blue ribbons that each
wore on the left ankle. The gowns
reached to the ankle and were of a soft
material which lent itself readily to
the movements of the dancers and
made no display above the ankle Of the
barred members, save when the more
daring kicks were INDUCED in. "A rug
covered the stage to protect the feet of
the dancers. 1t Is impossible to dance
gracefully or we'll with barred feet, but
last nights exhibition was a novelty
and the audience insisted that the
dancers should appear a second time.
They complied and danced with much
more abandon than on their first ap-
pearance.

written since 1t was last seen here. but

WARDE IN THE MOUNTEBANK,
Gavo Finished Performance at tbs
Frothiu CHAM Last Night.

It Is a regretable accident that the
distinguished actor, Frederick Warde,
had such a meagre audience as that
which greeted him last night at the
rockingham. Accident Is the only eX-
PLANTATION that will fit, for Mr. Warde
Is a favorite in Scranton, and the bill
Of last night, 1.-The Mountebank." has
always been fatteringly received here,
as 1t has all over the country. Possibly
1t Is that Scranton Is waiting to see him
in his new play, "Runnymede," or the
two big audiences of theater-goers Of
the previous night decided to take a
night Off, but, whatever the cause. the
audience was shamefully small.
Mr.. Warde seemed to take a particu-
lar delight. however, In entertaining
those who did come to see him. His ev
cry movement betokened earnest pains
taking effort to do the best that was
possible, and his company made the
same endeavor. AS a consequence the
audience saw one of the most finished
and thorough productions that ever
graced Scranton stage.
AS the Mountebank Mr.. Warde is In
one of his happiest roles. The feature
peculiar to the character Is the sudden
transitions from grave to gay. from
tragedy to veritable buffoonery. from
humOr to pathos one after the other In
rapid succession. requiring of the actor
a singular character, combining all
other lines followed on the stage. BY
living his part as is Mr.. Warde's GUS
tom, he Is capable Of being natural in
all these varied characters, whether as
the happy-go-lucky wandering show
man. the tender-hearted loving hus-
band. the sorrow stricken outcast or
the crafty and cunning impostor. In
the tragic climaxes he was especially
strong in the eyes Of last nights audi
ence. for at the end Of the second and
third acts he had to make his appear
anca three times after the fall of the
curtain before the audience was satis-
fed that it had shown it's due apprecia-
ton.
This year Mr. Warde has an excep-
tlonally strong company. foremost
among whom are A. C. Deltwyn, Chas.

Gillette and Miss Fannie Bowman,

the weak, SO readily restores lost nerve
force, so surely makes the ailing and
peevish young woman or growing boy

And for the aged and infirm the
whole world knows its wonderful cura-
tive powers. Rev. Erastus Rowley,
president of the famous Kentucky Fe-
male college. writing to the proprietors
of Paine's celery compound, says:
II was for several years sick man.
My sickness was attended with consti-
patton, with nervousness and insom-
MIA, and the least excitement would
cause palpitation of the heart. I have
in the last three or four years used
several widely advertised prepara-
tions. Finally I took Paine's celery
compound and I regard 1t as superior
to all others, especially If used strictly
as you direct. BY using this I do not
suffer from constipation, inability to
sleep, or from palpitation of the heart
as formerly ! am still using Paine's
celery compound at times, and shall
take pleasure in recommending 1t to
others"
