HOyt's "a Trip to Chinatown"

Hoyt's IA Trip to Chinatown" which
has entertained New York theatre goers
for 656 nights Gust contemplate this un.
paralleled run; SO weeks consecutively)
This most farce comedy of the age will
be given on Dec. 3lst, for the first time
at Bells Opera House. The piece will
be produced here in the same elaborate
manner as during the Metropolitan run.
Every particle of scenery, properties,
furniture, draperies, in fact everything
used is from Hoyt's Madison Square
Theatre, New York, and are exact repro.
ductions of the original scenes and
paraphernalia. And what is more every
stick of scenery is new. "A Trip to
Chinatown" is considered to be Mr..
Hoyt's nearest effort to the French idea
of comedy. The plot centres on Walland

furnished great company, notably

stinted praise from press and public in
every city visited. Mr.. Hoyt has high
estimate of these artists, which is the
reason for this first inaugural tour as
Joint stars. The production will be
perfect one, as to every feature governing
it's New York production.

SUPERINTENDENT CRAWFORD ILL
over Work Faxes His Strength and
He Breaks Down.

Superintendent Joseph Crawford of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company was
taken to Morris Plains recently for treat
ment for nervous pros tration. Mr..
Crawford has always been a hard work
er, and of late years has paid such as
siduous attention to his duties as Super
intendent of the New York Division
that his nerves gave way under the
strain. Some years ago, when the large
iron train shed of the company on Ex-
change place was being constructed, Mr.,
Crawford received a shock which would
have shattered the majority of men. He
was superintending the work of the shed
when a plank fell from one of the scat
folds near the roof and rebounding on
the ground struck his leg, shatterfng it
lust below the knee. 1t was thought
al first that his leg would have to be
amputated and for a long time his life
was despaired of. DR.. Hayes Agnew OF
Philadelphia, one of the physicians who
attended President Garfield. was called
in and saved both Mr.. Crawford's life
and limb.
Mr.. Crawford entered the employ Of
the Pennsylvania Company forty years
ago as a conductor. He steadily advanc-
ed and about eight years ago was made

lafayette Citizens, Association Still

THE Lafayette Citizens Association
held meeting last night at the Laf-
agette Building and Loan Associations S
rooms. The. meeting was the largest
held in several months and was called
especially to receive the reports of the
committees on the opening of Garfield
avenue and the Pine street sewer.
Mr.. John w. Heck. Chairman of the
Garfield Avenue Improvement Commit
tee reported that he had plans drawn
which could be sent to the Board of FL
nance with a petition requesting them
to concur in the opening OF Garfield
avenue.
Attached to the petition will be long
list of the names Of property owners
in that neighborhood who wish the I'M
pfovement. Mr.. Heck claims that one
signature is enough to warrant the i'm
provcment being concurred in by the
board.
There is large amount of land to
be bought before the Improvement can
be started. This will cost money, but
the property that is benefited will be as
sessed. If half of the owners of prop
eTty in the immediate neighborhood of
the proposed Improvement should object

property, and the Canal on a trestle.
There win be several spans in the
trestle, the largest of which will be
eighty-eight feet long and twenty -four
feet high. The cost of the Improvement
in round figures will be $4,000 The
city at large will pay the greatest part
of the expense, so about all the people
have to do is to say they want the inn
provement, The committee which called
upon the Board of Finance in regard to
the Pine street sewer reported: Some
time ago remonstrances were received
by the board which tended to kill the
project. Fourteen property owners and
a few who did not own property. com
posed those who signed the remon-
STRANGE. BY hard work, which consisted
mostly in finding people. the committee
succeeded in having ten signers take
their names from the remonstrance.
The others said they would not take
their names off because they didn't care
if the Improvement was made or not
to know that anyone who taps the sewer
when it is completed will be assessed.

his friends. He says he has already as
shranees from all sections of the State
sufficient to insure his nomination, but
he does not know whether he VIII make

Mr.. BEACH's LECTURE.
Tells Large Audience About the
Promised Land.

Director of Education William H
Beach, who has just returned from a
tour through the Holy Land, and is, of
course, brimful of fact and impressive
concerning that holy, historic place, de-
lighted a very large audience recently
in Public School No. 10 with the first
of a series of three lectures he pro-
poses to give about that tour. His
main subject is, ''From America to the
Land of Promise "The Promised
Land" and 1.-THE Honleward Trip" and
the two latter sections will be the
theme of lecture in the future.
On the platform to- greet Mr.. Beach
were Directors e. S. Cowles, M. L.
Stowe, ex-President John J. Voorhees,.
City Superintendent Henry Snyder, Prin-
cipal c.. S. Haskell of No. IA, George
7. Bouton and other prominent men.
Mr. Beach is so well known as leg
turer and a raeonteur that it is a work
of supererogation to say that he held
his audience from beginning to end
in rapture with his remarkable manner
in describing men. places and things.
Nothing seems to have escaped his OBJ

STREET AND WATER COMMITTEES
Commissioners Harding to BE EspecI-
ally Rewarded.

The new Street and Water Board will
organize Monday morning at ten o'clock.
There are going to be a few surprises
at that meeting. Commissioner Brown
is to be elected President of the board
no matter whether anyone likes it or not
Mr.. Brown is a peculiarly unselfish man.
and he proposes establishing the prece-
dent Of not having the President of the
board chairman of any of the commit
tees or even a member of them.
Commissioner George w. Harding has
brought about such reforms at the pipe
yard, and has conducted that branch of
the city government so satisfactorily,
that his faithfulness is to be rewarded
by giving him the Craftsmanship of the
Pipe Yard Committee. MIR. Harding's S
labors in the interests of the city have
also resulted in his being named as chair
man of the committee in charge of the
Engineering Bureau.
The Committee on Pumping and Reser-
voirs which carries Belleyille and High
Service with it. will go to Commissioner
Hooker again.
The Craftsmanship of the Committee
on Streets falls to Commissioner Kaiser.
The other important committees will
be divided between Messrs. Harding,
Hooker and Kaiser. AS far as can be
learned Commissioner Patterson will
have absolute control over the Com
rnittee on Byways and Lonesome Places.
No business will be- transacted at the

TO DEPOPULATE OLNEYVILLE.
Union Mems Revenge for Shutting
Down the Mills.

PROVIDENCE, R. l., May 4, 1S95-The
striking operatives of the Manton mill
held meeting last night and voted not
to return until requested to do so by
Mr. Kimball. More than 100 operatives,
representing the combers, twisters and
fxinfi boys of the Riverside mill, have
joined the strikers.
The strikers have plan which will be
submitted to the, National Council and
for almost the complete depopulation OF
Olneyville. There are 900 families in the
town who would be in actual need of as
sistance and it is intended to obtain
the cooperation of the delegates to the
council to obtain positions for them in
other parts of the country. Each dele
gate is to lay the matter before his own
union, and it is believed that in this way
it will be very easy to place them some
Mills in all parts of the country are in
need of good operatives and the fact
that they have been connected with the
Olneyvilie trouble win not stand in their
wav at This time With the entire Tex
tile Union working as a big employment
agency, it is believed that it would not
be more than q weekzor two before every
one of the SEQ or more families could pc
located somewhere. The union would
then pay all the travelling expenses and
costs of moving and after q IS Ssuihcien5
to grant the old schedule, every. family
would be sent out of town. Equal efforts
would be made to find work for the
single men, but as, they have no respon-
siblities they could well look after them
selves and the union would then have
only it's regular members in good stand

General Hancock has given an opinion
in the case of the condemned man, Dr.

He says that while aware that it is a

and while not unmindful of the serious
criticism which have been made of all
