The THEATERS.
Trowbridge's Star Theater.

The melodrama, entitled "The Pulse of
New York" is the attraction at Trow-
bridges Star Theater this week and there
was large audience at the opening per-
formance yesterday.
AS the name indicates the story OF the
| play is based upon the shady side of life
In Gotham, and is replete with exciting
incidents and truly miraculous escapes
from untimely death, a notable inst nee
being the dragging OF the hero from be-
meath pile driver just as the mons
trous mass of plunging iron
was about to crush out his vital
ity. This is only one OF numerous adyen-
lures which the hero experiences before
making his triumphant stride to the foot
lights at the finish OF the last act. And
then again there is the excitement OF the
uncertainty as to the probable outcome of
the contest between vice and virtue, the
plot being so skillfully arranged that this
contest does not partake of the nature of
a hippodrome.
The diversions offered by the Pulse are
SHOWN by specialties in the Bowery den
scene of the third act. Among the bright
people in the cast are Oracle Emmett.
Charles Phillips, Baby Fisher. Max Free.

Town OF North Providence.
At North Providence there was hard
political fight between the Republicans
and the Union faction, so called, and the
result was an open question until
the close of the contest. The
Republicans elected all seven
OF the Town Councilmen, the town SER
geant, highway commissioners and school
committeeman but they won by very small
margins, all OF the Union candidates se-
curing over l60 votes and no Republican
getting over lS0

beating Henry II. Hill, his Repu blican
opponent, by a'vote of 173 to 16S.
Town Of Cranston.
The Republican nominees were tri-
umphant at the polls yesterday, and the
coalition OF the Democratic and Citizens
Alliance forces, which promised to de-
Velop much strength in opposing the reg
ular nominees, utterly failed, and the en-
tire Republican ticket was reelected by
maJorities ranging from 1ss to 5s5. This
result was received with evident satisfac-
tion, and q large party yofenthusiastic cit
iZens resolved themselves into sere naders,
and, amid the booming of cannon, the
footing of horns, and liberal display of
fireworks, visited the homes of the more
prominent candidates and made the
welkin ring with their paens of victory.

Rhode Island by smallpox (?) tho
General Assembly, by advice of the
medical profession, ignoring its allie
glance to the Constitution of tho
United States, true statistics against
vaccination, science, reason, and COM
mon sense, enacted a law that cyery

from sores on diseased persons or dis.
eased animals, put directly into tho
pure blood of its healthy body, with
out any means of knowing the malig-
nancy or effect of the poison before il
enters the system, and for which
there is no antidote; a poison that
produces real disease. And tho
vaccinators say that the operation
must be repeated several times during
HE, TO prevent the disease from
being eliminated. Thus every citizen
must carry poisonous disease i'm his
body all his life and bequeath it TO
ms children and his children's chill
dren.
Notwithstanding, vaccination neither
prevents nor mitigates smallpox in
any case, but on the contrary makes
the vaccinated more susceptible to
cases it fills tho system with the
most fatal and loa.hsome diseases of
man and beast-cancers, syphilis.

and is an unmitigated curse. Over
forty new diseases have appeared
since vaccination. Vaccination was
established by fraud. Edward Jen-
ner, the pretended discoverer, who
obtained Sl5O,000frOm the British Par
hament, was an outrageous swindler,
ana It's evils having been concealed
and denied by the profession, makes
IL an enormous fraud. Evidently it
is the most absurd and pernicious
scheme that ever entered the brain OF
human being. 1t has caused. di-
rectly and indirectly, a vast number
OF horrible deaths and lifelong dis
eases.
After understanding vaccination.
no intelligent, unbiased person can
believe in IL, and it is a great mystery
now any one can be so blinded as to
believe in It; nothing could be so
peUectty foolish and pernicious. No
one has a right to have n child
poisoned; it is a crime TO allow it, and
IL rs high time that parents, guardians
and employers should realize the
enormity of the practice. All chill
dren are allowed to 90 To paro-
chial and private schools, churches,
Sunday schools, lectures, concerts,
titeaters, railroad cars, steamboats,, -
circuses and other promiscuous
crowds without being vaccinated.
The citizens of the State, who shall
have got their eyes open upon this
subject must see that no man here
after shall be elected TO the General
Assembly who will not pledge him
self to vote to repeal that tyrannicd
law.
