A HEAVY loss.
The Oratorio Society Runs Far Behind
with Their Festival Accounts.

The Oratorio Society Runs Far Behind
with Their Festival Accounts.
It is now definitely known that the
Oratorio society lost in the neighbor-
hood of $1,000 at their recent musical
festival. The attendance from out Of
town was far beyond anybody's ex-
pectations, and 1t is to the people Of
Wilkes-Barre themselves that this un-
fortunate financial condition Is due.
The exceedingly slim attendance at the
production Of 1.-THE Seasons" was a
great disappointment to the projectors
Of the festival. Had there been n
large attendance on this occasion It is
probable that enough money would
have been raised to meet all the bills,
but It Is disgrace to the city Of Wilkes
Barre to allow so excellent a production
Of classic work like 1.-The Seasons to
be heard by as scanty an audience as
was present on Tuesday night.
That the eisteddfod was q success
musically Is a nice thing to say, but
1t doesn't cut much of a figure In set
tling the bills. The expenses Of two
days festival like this were naturally
very heavy. as the large orchestra, ad-
INDICATORS and soloists alone cost over
$1,000. to say nothing Of the expenses
OF printing, advertising, rent Of the
armory and the thousand and one other
minor expenses always incurred upon
such an occasion. In city of the size
and culture Of Wilkes-Barre, there was
every reason to believe that enough
people would attend the sessions to
pay expenses. but this Is not the first
time that the Oratorio society has been
deceived in regard to the number Of
music lovers Of the city. These bills
are imperative and will have to be met
at once. The Oratorio society has no
money, and so 1t will have to be raised
by popular subscription. The Oratorio
society seems to be working in bad
luck somewhere. 1t has been a long
time since they made any money or
even cleared expenses at their concerts,
but 1t is to be hoped that in the future
they will do better. An organization
with the aims of this society should do
more than find scanty living in a city
like Wilkes-Barre.

A Prizo Fight stopped.

Alderman James j. TnOmaS, Oh tHe
Ninth ward, and ex-Alderman Jerry
Rooney, ex-justice of the Ninth, by an
act of signal bravery prevented either
Walter Johnson or Henry Miller from
being punched by the other late on
Thursday night. These young gentle
men had met in a barn on Lincoln
street with the amiable intention OF
having a fight according to Queensbury
rules. There was quite a crowd pres
ent, and some money was up. In the
meantime however, one of Miller's
hackers discovered that his man was
showing the white feather, and so, to
save his own long green," he got out
a warrant for the arrest of the amateur
scrappers. There wasn't a constable
within sight, SO Alderman Thomas
deputized ex-Alderman Rooney to ac-
company him. Now, Mr.. Rooney is
lame, and was therefore useless in a
chase, SO Mr.. Thomas stationed him at
the rear door, where he stood like Ho-
ratius at the bridge, ready to nab any
or all law-breakers that might come his
way. Then Mr.. Thomas boldly charged
the mob. Terrified by his presence
they fled by the other door, putting out
the lights. But here Squire Rooney
had formed hollow square of himself,
and with Mr.. Thomas on the other two
sides of the square, they marched six
teen Of the miscreants down to Mr..
Thomas office. Here the alderman de-
livered brief but emphatic address on,
the evils of prize fighting, and on pay
ment of the costs they were allowed to
90. All bets were declared off.
