Efforts are evidently being made to run
events at Hersker's theatre in Mahanoy City
ON cheap scale. Negotiations with several
orchestras, among them the Schoppe or
chestra Of town, fell through because the
management considered the terms too high
The employment Of an eleventh hour com
bination caused a big kick in the theatre
last evening and one of the actresses pro-
voked considerable amusement by openly ex-
postulating with the leader. 1t pays to have
good things sometimes even if they do cost
more than others

HANNA SURRENDERS.
He Turns over the Papers to Solicitor

He Turns over the Papers to solicitor
Beddau.
The controversy between the majority
members and Secretary Hanna Of the School
Board has assumed new appearance, the
Secretary having decided to surrender the
papers. The following communication eI-
plains itself;
MIR. JOHN j. PRICE,
President Shenandoah School Board
DEAR SIR Having received notice of the
postponement of the trial of Superintendent
c. ID. Bogart called for December 81, 1896 to
the 9th of January, 1897, the subpoena with
which | was served has no force. | will
therefore, hand over the papers mentioned in
the resolution adopted at the meeting of
December 10th, as directed taking Mr.
BeddalPs receipt for the same.
Yours Very Respectfully,
FRANK HANNA, Sec'y.
The papers demanded have been turned
over to Solicitor Beddall.
The prevailing impression is that Secre-
tsry Hanna realized that by his defiance in
the matter he threw himself open to charges
of insubordination and removal from office.
1t is held by many that Mr.. Hanna is still
subject to such charge, notwithstanding he
has finally decided to come down off his
'high horse" Those who are of this opinion
say his remarks at the meeting of the Board
and his subsequent letter to President Price
refusing to turn over the papers, is sufficient
cause for removal.
What the next move in the controversy will
be is anticipated with a great deal of interest.
Mr. HSnna's course is universally condemned,
and his final decision is an acknowledgment
that he was wrong.

Molierc objected 10 the printing Of his
plays ON the ground that they were
meant to be acted on the stage, with the
costumes, scenery AID illusions per
tanning thereto, and not to be read IN
the closet 1t was also inferred that
Shakespeare entertained the same notion
as Moliore, seeing how indifferent he
was as 10 the fate Of his plays so long as
they were popular ON the stage There
IS also the explicit declaration of Hey
wood i'll the following terms:
ut hath been no custom i'll me of all
other men courteous readers to com
nit my plays to the press. The reason,
though some may attribute to my own
insutiiciency, | had rather subscribe i'll
that to their severe ccnsure than by
seeking to avoid the imputation Of weak
ness to incur greater suspicion of hon
esty, for, though some have used Il dou
BILE sale of their labors first to the stage
and after to the press, | here proclaim
myself ever faithful to the first and
never guilty of the last. y
The author of the most successful
comedy Of modern times exhibited the
same Indifference to, or rather dislike
of, the printer. When 1.-THE School For
Scandal" met with so brilliant rerep-
ton, from its first appearance on May
s, 1777, Ridgway, the publisher, agreed
with Sheridan as to its publication, but
he never succeeded in getting the manu-
script. He applied to the author in vain,
and at length got AN answer Sheridan
said that he had been 10 years endeavor
ing to satisfy himself with the style of
the play, but had not yet succeeded.
The printing of the play was done in
dependently of the author. He presented
manuscript copy of it to his married
sister, Mrs Lefanu, at Dublin, to be
disposed Of for her own advantage to the
managers of the Dublin theater. This
brought her 100 guineas and free admiS
sions to the theater, and it was from Il
manuscript thus procured that the Dub
lin edition was printed. Notes and
