DEESTRICH SIX ULE.
A Successful Entertainment Given at the
A.,ncialion Binding Lost Night.

..Deestrick Shule," as your parents
knew it fifty years ago. was the an
nouncement on the programme for the
entertainment given in the big haii OF the
Young Mems Christian Association last
otght for the benefit of the Seventh
street Christian church. In anticipation
of the highly amusing affair a large
crowd had gathered, that completely NIL
ed the big hall and gallery. All partlci-
pants did splendidiy, and Tor over an
hour and half the interested audience
was kept in \ constant roar OF laughter.
The list of characters were as folloWs'
Skule MarsIer, 5. T.. Bishop ounce
George A. Carter head committeeman
a r, Ferguson; Mrs Honeysuckle, Mrs.
Turpin; scholars, boys and girls IN pro-
fusion.
BY far the best characters were the
skule marster and Ounce. and Messrs.
Rfshop and Carter deserve great credit
for the able and accomplished manner In
which they played their parts MIR.
Bishop was the genuine type OF an old
fashioned backwoods country schoolmas-
ter. while Mr.. Carter represented the
idiotic mischievous Ounce 10 perfection.
Mr.. Carter is no stranger 10 Richmond
audiences, and he understands how TO
captivate his hearers at once whom
he entertains with lot or fOohshness
mat he brings out in the most natural
and realistic manner. The entertainment
last evening, especially during the eX-
animation OF the various classes in
arithmetic, spelling, geography. grammar
and physical exercises gave him ample
opportunity 10 bring out his talent TO
the best advantage. and during his recita-
tions before the visiting school COM
mittee he had a good chance TO introduce
himself from a serio-sentimental side.
The skule marster also could not be
beaten In his serio-comic effort 10 do his
full duty and to show the committee his
earnest zeal Both gentlemen were well
supportd by quite a number Of the pupils.
During the recess that separated the
two principal parts. Mrs. Maggie r.
Knowles and Mr.. L. II. Cloves sang a
| solo each. and both appeared together in
tenor and alto duet 10 which they had
| 10 sing an encore.
The rather unexpected success OF the
| entertainment was TO a very large ex-
tent due TO the untiring efforts of Mr..
| Arthur G. Johnson. the manager OF the
| reproduction OF school life OF olden times.

PHILADELPHIA STRIKE ON.

Street. Car Line Biocked-Many Outbreaks Of
Violence. = 'e
The great strike of motormen and con-
ductors of the Union Traction Company,
Philadelphia, began early Tuesday morn
ing, and all lines of the company are prac-
tically tied up. President Welsh says
hundreds of men are applying for work.
Several cars were derailed. The senti-
ment Of the public is clearly with the
strikers. The company employs about
5000 men, two-thirds of them members
of the Employees Association. The de-
mand of the men is for working day of
ten hours with 81 pay, reasonable time
for meals, protection from the weather
and recognition of their organization.
Before the strike i'm Philadelphia was
twenty-four hours old, the city was all
but in the hands of mob. The strikers
took but little part in the violence, the
rowdy element doing all the damage.
The police were utterly unable to cope
with the mob. From early morning un-
til dusk, as each branch line made desper-
ate efforts to start, bowling mobs sur
rounded each car, stoned and hooted the
motorman and conductor, smashed the
windows, cut the trolley ropes and wreak-
ed all possible destruction. Then the at
tempt was abandoned. Many persons
were injured by flying missiles, and

SENATE is AS ONE MAN.
Passes the Bill for a Com ission
Uuau i'm ously.

Passes the Bill for a Commission
Unanimously.
Neither the bluff and buster of British
financiers nor the threats of Wall street
operators moved the United States Sen.
ate from what it deemed it's path of
duty Friday. Republicans and Popu-
lists joined with Democrats in giving
the strength of unanimous support to the
President, who, it was conceded, had
but performed his loftiest duty in set
ting forth, in forcible words the concrete
sentiment of the American people in his
recent message on the Venezuelan boun-
dairy dispute.
The House bill for Venezuelan conf
mission passed the Senate by viva voce
vote, and not one voice was raised against
1t nor n single amendment urged.
1t was openly and bravely stated on the
Senate floor that concerted action was
being taken by the money magnates Of
England to bring pressure to bear to set
aside the threatened investigation pro-
posed by the President through the story
that nothing but party politics had
prompted the Presidents action; and IL
was also proclaimed that Wall street,
while the debate was in progress, had
been flooding the Senate chamber with
telegraphic messages proclaiming the
direst panic on record If the Senate in
sisted upon adopting the House bill. But
the Senators were not to be inundated.
"Why," said Mr.. Teller in his strong,
forceful speech, every Chamber of Com
merce and Board of Trade in the Uni
ted States, except in New York, favors
upholding. the Presidents action and the
insistence upon the principles of the Mon
roe doctrine. Suppose stocks do go off.
this country need not be disturbed"
And Mr.. Lodge, of Massachusetts, and
Mr.. Chandler, of New Hampshire, took
occasion to serve notice on the money
powers of London, who seemed to be
striving to create a panic by disposing
of American securities, that the patriotic
sentiment of the United States could not
be Influenced by such course and that
the people of this country should stand
up to the last for what they believed to be
the right. Congress would do its duty,
no matter what the financial operators OF
Wall street might do.

FIVE KILLED. SIX INJURED.



Explosion Of etsampips on the American
Line etsamshlp ct. Paul.
Five men were killed and six injured
by the explosion of steampipe on the
American line steamship st. Paul while
the vessel lay at her dock ut the foot Of
Fulton street, North River, New York.
At the time Of the accident, shortly after
Z o'clock, there were thirty men of the
crew in the freroom and ten in the en-
gine-room. The main steampipe, which
is three feet in diameter, runs from the
engine to the fire room. 1t was this pipe
which exploded. The main stop-valve
was blown out. The accident is believed
to have been caused by flaw in the pipe.
Preparations were being made for the
sailing of the vessel ut IL o'clock. but
fortunately none of the passengers was
aboard the vessel. From above the noise
Of the escaping steam could be heard the
cries of the men who had been at work
in the engine-room and injured by the ex-
plosion. The nature of the explosion was
such that it rendered access to the To-
cality extremely difficult. AS quickly as
possible the steam was turned off. AL
most simultaneously four half dead men
scrambled up the iron stairway leading
from the engine-room and fell PROSTATE
upon the port side of the vessel. They
were hurried into the cabin and restora-
tives administered to them. Two other
men terribly scalded We're found in an
almost unconscious condition lying near
the bottom of the stairway, and were
lifted up to the deck. AS soon as the
steam had cleared away sufficiently to
render seeing the surroundings possible
five men were found lying near in vari-
GUS parts of the compartment, dead. They
had all been scalded to death, and their
faces and those parts Of the body which
were not covered by their clothing looked
as If they had been parboiled.

active participation In politics was as
a member of the committee OF one
hundred, which led the Independent
movement for Cleveland against Blaine
