At the A caderny Last Night.

At the Academy Last Night.
"Only Farmers Daughter" held the
boards at the Academy of Music last
night the performance being given be-
fore fairly good audience. This play
has fine plot, carefully and lucidly
worked out, aud several situations OF,
the strongest character are presented,
which in the hands Of q frat class com
psny would create enthusiasm. The
company performing last night, how
ever, was not first"class; but it was a
clever one. and, aided by the complete
coherency of the plot gave fair presen-
tation of an excellent play. Miss Helen
North in tho title role gave sweet
womanly portrayal OF the loving, but
neglected, wife. A little more fire In
her impassioned scenes would have
strengthened an otherwise excellent
performance. Little Ethel May as Nell
lie was wonderfully effective, and
lacked to large extent that mechan.
ical action which makes juvenile char
scters monotonous. Miss Booth as LIZ
zie Stark, the adventures; Eugene
Ellsworth as Jack Hartley, her accom-
plice, and Ed Hall as Sammy Green,
the humble, but brave hearted country
man, sustained their characters very
effectively. The action of the play was
go slow at times as to make IL DRAG
heavily, and it VAS only the whll.conE
structed and interesting plot that made
1T bearabie TO the end.

urers of Washington, n. ]. For the
next 60 days they offer to sell an organ

terms uf credit that are sure to meet
with the approval of every fair-minded
person. Cornish & Co. are the largest
makers of Pianos and Organs in the
world selling direct from the factory to

enormous profits usually retained by
the tradesman to the buyer. Their
efforts to place first class instruments
within the reach of all, at manufacture

deserves the highest commentator.

a printer, yesterday afternoon shot hts
wife twice, once il the head and once
in the abdomen, and then blew out his
brains. He died instantly. but his wife
is still living in precarious condttton
at Lackawanna Hospital. A little over
a year ago Mrs. Roche went to the bad,
and her husband. after vainly trying to
reform her, took to drink. He sought to
have his little girl. their only child,
grow up in a pure element, and the
troubles of the pair grew out Of his eff
forts to save the little one. A few
months ago he beat the woman, was ar
rested for it, and a week ago was re-
leased from Jail.

in eight months the Hawaiian republic
will be overthrown and Princess Kaiu-

be made Queen Of the island. Every
body is sick Of the new republic, and it
is recognized in Hawaii that the mon
archy will be restored. The officials of
the present Government acknowledge by
their own statements that they have been
running behind at the rate Of $4,000 per
month since they began. In other words
they are s995.0o0 more in debt now than
at the time Of the establishment Of the

AN EMBARRASSING MATTER.
| The Governments Finds at Low Ebb to
Meet OBLIGATIONS,

The Governments Finds at Low Ebb to
Meet Obligations.
Washington. Oct. 9.-The Treasury
Department is confronted with an en-
barrassing matter in the necessity for
providing funds to meet obligations of
the Government growing out of its rela-
tions to the Pacific railroads. Within
the next few months there will fall due
SS,640,o00 Of bonds issued on account of
these railroads. They are as follows:
November 6-Kansas Pacific bonds,
$4,000.
January Central Pacific, 81, GOO, 900;
Kansas Pacific, 81, 440, 900; Central branch
Union Pacific, $4,000.
February 1-Bnion Pacific, 1890, 900.
Notice has already been given that
the $4,000 due on November / will be
paid on that date, but the payments in
January and February are more serious
questions. These amounts, it is under
stood, were not included In Secretary
Carlisie's calculations upon which he
based his estimates of receipts and ex-
pendhures for the current year, and If
some way could be found to obviate the
necessity Of disbursing that amount of
cash 1t would be gladly welcomed. The
Secretary will doubtless recommend in
his report to Congress that legislation
be passed by which the bonds can be re-
funded at a lower rate Of interest. But
the very brief period which wifi inter-
vene between the date Of the assem-
bling Of Congress and that Of the matur-
ity Of the bonds, as well as the OPPOSE
ton which any proposition respecting
the Pacific railroads debt always evokes.
precludes the possibility Of anything be-
ing accomplished that will relieve the
Treasury situation
