New-York tribune., 1895-12-23

The people OF Jersey City and some of its en-
yirons, who have so long been accustomed 10 the
impure water drawn from the polluted Passaic
have great reason to rejoice in the prospect that
before Christmas Day they will be furnished
with water of good quality, on whose integrity
they can rely with reasonable gertrude. The
new supply is to come from the Pequannock
Valley and is the same that sent through the
mains of Newark Jersey City Kearny, Harr
son ard East Newark are TO be the gamers by
the completion of the connection with the pipes
of the East Jersey Water Company. The gain
will be incalculable for their present water sup
ply Is vile almost beyond description.
New-York tribune., 1895-12-23

Nothing is yet known in regard TO the com
position of the Commission TO be appointed by
the President to inquire into the Venezuelan
boundary question, but the latest gossip from
Washington Is 10 the effect that no one Of the
men prominently spoken Of in the newspapers
as likely to be appointed has been seriously con-
sldered by the President. II this is the case
several men pre-emnenty fitted for the work
are ruled out 1t is also said that it is Mr.. Clevc
lands intention TO pick out one or more men
from each branch Of Congress as members Of
the Commission. This gossip is to be taken for
what it is worth. 1t may be well TO bear in mind
that President Cleveland has the habit of doing
the very things he is not expected to do, and has
more than once selected for important functions
men who had never been mentioned for appoint
ment

1t is probable that some of the persons who
have offered their services to the Red Cross for
the work in Armenia have been animated by
the desire for adventure and a long journey to
an unknown land, but the greater number no
doubt have been animated by the highest mo-
tkes or at least by worthy ones. There is little
chance, however, that any considerable number
u offers will be accepted. Miss Barton an

Republican Leag, e Club.

George Christ, member of the Republican National Committees, has left for the east to be gone six months on political business. His headquarters will be in Chicago, from which place he will assist the national committee. He will ap- point some one to take his place at the helm of the republican party in Arizona. Who the person will be has not been decided on yet, or at least the name has not been made public. Some think A. T. Bird, of the Oasis, will be the man. ."-Phe- nix Gazette.
 Col. Christ arrived in Prescott on this mornings train and has been in consultation with various republi- cans in regards to the reorganization of the league clubs. He is very en- thusiastic in regard to this work and says that the very best results can be traced to work done by the clubs two years ago in the territory. He is quite enthusiastic also over pros poets for republican success all over the country next year.

Saturday Nights Performance.

The Pembroke Comedy company closed it's engagement on Saturday evening with the reproduction of the "Mother-in-Law," and they made a decided hit. w. C.. Moore took the part of the mother-inlaw and was inimitable in this character. Aside from possessing a voice rather too heavy for a female character Mir. Moore's impersonation of Mrs. Strombelow was perfect. At the former presentation of this play Mir Moore took the part of Daffodil, the gardener, with amorous propensities. This character was taken on Satur- day evening by Frank Reno who surpassed all of his previous efforts.
 As Fatima, 'piquant and gay, Mrs E. J. Austin excelled herself. Her French accent was perfection itself, while her acting seemed more free from restraint and formalIty and she sustained the character with vim and vivaciOusness.
 MT. Pembroke's "Carnaby Fix" was an improvement on the former production and he showed Saturday night that he Is at home in comedy as we'll as tragedy.
 MT. Bartlett has not appeared to better advantage than he did on Saturday night.
 Aside from an apparent stage fright Miss Carleton sustained the ah Nf Nv ,r-nll
 Mrs. 9ruce's Sibylla was all that could be made of the character, while Miss Pedgrift was dainty, but not demure as Phebe.
 $. Pedgrift as the mysterious cab man was even more mysterious than at its former production.
 The play throughout was charac- terized by better acting by all and the audience was kept in an uproar of laughter during the entire per formance.
 Miss Brown, of Whipple, presided at the piano and she even excelled her former efforts. She has a re markedly sympathetic touch and her faultless rendering of a number of very difficult pieces elicited encores from the audience, and we may re mark incidentally right here that it IS a rare Cgr"-rence for a Prescott audience io app.aud the orchestra

-"Through the Lines."

It Is not often that the people of Prescott are treated to such a dis play of talent, surrounded by all the grand and awful paraphernalia of war, as was witnessed last even ing at Patton's opera house by a large and appreciative audience.
 Through the Lines" is a military drama that has withstood the vicis- situdeS of time and the assualts of the critic, and is to-day, oD account of the associations it illustrates, a favorite with the American people.
 The part of Euphemia McCreery was well sustained by Mrs. J. P. Bruce. Her acting showed not of the amateur, and her make up," together with her conception of the part of the maiden aunt, was very good.
 The difficult part of Rachael Me
Arizona weekly journal-miner., 1895-10-16

Creery, as rendered by Miss Maddie Freuler, was indeed revelation, and shows that Prescott is blessed with more than the usual share of dramatic talent.
 As an amateur soubrette. Miss Etta Dewitt surprised the audi ence. She made much of the part of Susan McCreery and her coquet- tish acting in her dialogues with Bean won the hearty applause of the audience.
 Although Colonel Prescott is not a part of great importance, MT. Pembroke made the best of 1t, and succeeded admirably in making the monotonous fourth act as interest ing as any of the others.
 Joseph Morrison's rendition of Thomas Henry Bean was appreciated by the audience, who frequently ap, plauded the efforts of Leslie's special 10 secure information.
 The Lieutenant Gordon Hayne of s. Pedgrift was a splendid piece of acting, and showed the great acting ability of that gentleman.
 F. s. Emmal. as Surgeon General Fielding, made a hit. He not only looked the part, but acted it to per lection.
 Jules Baumann, as the faithful Uncle Rufus, was great favorite with the audience. His conception of the faithful old darkey "way down south" was excellent.
 Thomas Campbell covered him. self with glory as Lieutenant-C Colo nel McPherson, as did Joseph Tier nan as G sneral Stamburg. Sergeant Desmond. Frank Reno, 1 W. w. Wallace, NJ. |.

Flagstaff Electric Lights.

The electric light plant of Flag staff has been completed and the Democrat, of that place, boasts that that there is no other town in Ari zona or New Mexico so provided in regard to rates as that place. The rates it says are Sl.l0 per month for a l6 candle-power burner burning to II o'clock at night, and Sl.50 burning until 1 o'clock; 32 candle power burner to II o'clock, Sl.50; to 1 o'clock. 8; 50 candle-power burner burning to II o'clock, $2.25, burning to l o'clock s.
 The company is now ready to an nounce its rates for families and residences. These are much lower than the business rates for the num- Der of burners furnished, but are expected to yield an equivalent re- turn for the amount of current con- sumed. It is not permitted to the consumer under the rates below given, to use all of the lights in his house continuously for illumination purposes. He is simply expected to use the lights as he has necessity for them, in the same way that he would use kerosine lamps. When a con sumer wishes to use all of the lights for which he subscribes, coniinu- ously each evening, he will be ex- pected to pay the same rates charged to the business houses.
 Upon the foregoing as basIs. the following schedule of rates is an nounced:

THE Kentucky Legislature is composed of sixty-eight Democrats, sixty-eight Republicans and two Populists. The politics of the next Senator from that State is, there fore, in extreme doubt. One of the Populist members, it is said, will vote with the Democrats and one with the Republicans in the election of United States Senator. If such is the case the Lieutenant Governor, who will be a Republican, will have the deciding vote, which means that a Republican Senator will be elected.
