Lecture In Kansas City.
Kansas City, Feb. 2.-Before the rich
est congregation in this part Of the
country James A. Hearne, actor and
playwright, delivered lecture on THE
Theater as 1t Is" The lecture was one
of series of popular discussions which
have been running at the First Con-
gregational church, Of which DR.. Hen
ry Hopkins, LII. D., a relative of the
founder of the Johns Hopkins unlver-
sity, is pastor.
"The theater," said Hearne, among
other things, sis factor Of society
just as mich so as is the church, and
in spite Of all the stigma that is at
tached to 1t and all the vice and perni-
cious power 1t is charged with, it is
still an educator, and It's influence is
for good and not for evil
ut is not the province Of the theater
to preach effectively, but to teach sub
jectively and there is no reason why
the church and the theater should not
work together. claim they have stood
too long apart; that for the good Of the
race they should join hands at once
and aid each other to free mankind"

Goes Astray.
Ravenna, o., Feb. 2.-In 1889 Miss
Eva McCaul, daughter of James G. Nc
Caul, business agent of General Russell
A. Alger of Detroit, and Thaddeus L.
Johnson, cousin of Tom l. Johnson of
Cleveland, who was then medical
student at Ohio university, were Sc
cretly married in Detroit and came
here to live. AfterwaRd they went to
Pomona, CAL, for the benefit of John
sons health, where they gained social
prominence.
Word has Just been received from
Pomona that Mrs. Johnson has desert
ed her husband and eloped to San
Francisco with an actor known as Will
liam Bell, but whose real name is r. A.
Norton. They lived together in San
Francisco until recently, when Norton
deserted the woman and she is now
living in miserable top-hoor room of
a cheap lodging house.
Mr. Johnson has gone to San Fran
cisco for the purpose of demonstrating
with his erring wife and restoring her
to the place in his home which she
abandoned.

John r.. McLean's
Great Newspaper.

Without single exception, there
is beyond doubt no greater or more
popular newspaper in the United
States than the Cincinnati Enquirer /;
or more successful publisher than
its proprietor. Mr.. John r. Mclean.
The old-time prices for the Daily
Enquirer have been maintained, and
its circulation largely increased each
year; hard times and cheaper jour
mails failing to arrest its onward march
and high appreciation of the public
for its true worth and merit.
The Weekly Enquirer at beginning
of the campaign year was offered at
SO cents year, and its circulation
increased by the addition of over
200, 900 new subscribers; the most
substantial and coveted testimonial
publisher could desire.
When asked for the secret of such
success, Mr.. Mclean frankly answers:
The Enquirer has no opinions to force
upon its patrons, it simply prints the
facts and tells the truth that the reader
may form his own opinions. BY
maintaining the price of the paper,
more news and greater variety can be
furnished, and every class of business
interests catered to, which a cheaper
journal cannot afford.
The very liberal support given the
Enquirer by the public at large, makes
1t incumbent upon the management
to serve it faithfully with zeal and en-
terprise in minor matters as well as
those of greater magnitude.

Went Before the Ways and Means Com

Tie next time Mr. Crawford Lyon of
Baltimore appears before the ways and
means committee Of tho national house
of representatives he will remain at
homo. Mr.. Lyon made the fatal mistake
of appearing before tho committee and
asking for II lower instead of higher
duty on linoleums and oilcloths. This
was contrary to the spirit of the majori-
ty of the committee. The manufacturers
Of linoleums and oilcloths were asking
for higher duty and We're listened TO
with patience. But when Mr.. Lyon ap-
peared and proved by statistics that
even tlIe present Wilson-Gorman tariff
duties on these articles lavishly protect
ed tho manufacturers he was lombard
ed by questions and confused with the
multiplicity Of ideas promulgated by
the committeeman seeking to give the
tariff screws another turn.
Mr.. Lyon showed that the Wilson,
German tariff was the same ON these
goods as in tho law of 1883, and that
1883 law was satisfactory to the manu-
facturers until they were given large
and long taste of tariff that enormous
ly increased their profits. And now they
are crying for more. Theirs ID an infant
industry that is Of voting age, and they
are still coddling the lusty youngster
and bowling for protection that will en-
able them to make an unearned profit
by taxing the whole people. en- Mr..

quiescent, submissive to the better ele-

who dares to discuss popular questions
imprisoned as well rs fined. Why have

Patrick Mcintyre, 43 years, met hor-
rible death at Il Mahanoy City shaft this
week. According to his custom he left
home at $50 a. m. to make examinations
of his portion of the mine. At o'clock
he was precipitated in some unaccount-
able way down the shaft, distance of
iifty-seven feet, sustaining a fractured
skull and broken legs, one of which
penetrated the abdomen. A wife and
nine children survive. Mcintyre had
several relatives on the South Side, and
had lived there some years ago.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1897-04-01

The Mocanaqua breaker, owned by
the West End Coal Company, was burn
ed on Monday. The fire had gained
such headway when discovered that the
utmost efforts of the officials and en-
ployes were futile in saving the building,
which was entirely consumed, with a
portion of the high treste approaching
it. The origin of the fire is not known.
The breaker was completed four years
ago on the site of the one burned Just
few months previous, this making the
second building destroyed. The cost of
the structure was $4,000, on which
there was an insurance of S35 900. 1t
was located on the hillside opposite
Shickshinny. The breaker was equipped
with modern machinery and its capacity
was 1850 tons daily.
The mine was not working on Monday
and there is somewhat of mystery con-
nected with the fire. 1t may have been
caused by spark from passing loco
motive, as was the case with the other
building destroyed. The West End
Company's lease will expire in July next
and if it can be renewed the work of
rebuilding will no doubt begin at once.
In the meantime 800 men and boys are
thrown out of work. The first breaker
was burned March II, 1893, and rebuilt
that summer. The mine was opened
the first time during the war.
