A Boom i'm Sugars.

The several advances of late in the price

this staple. In two days last week John w.
Jones & Co. handled at their establishment
the largest business in any forty-eight
hours in the history of their operation, de-
livering to local wholesale grocery houses
and shipping $500 barrels of sugar, and on
other days of the week their business was
up to the average volume. Mr. Jones says
that this boom is caused by the prospect
of revision of the tariff, which revision pro-
poses that $250 5000 a year shall be realized

painter who was painting the dome
and roof of the general postoffice in
this city, fell from the dome to the por-
tico in front of the postmasters pri-
vate office some time this morning, and
was instantly killed Though Broad
way and Park Row were crowded with
people, no one seems to have seen him
fall, and no one knows how long the
body lay there before it was discovered.
A Broadway policeman happening to
look up at the snow and icicles on the
portico in front of the postmaster's Of
flee, noticed the foot and leg of man
protruding between the round stone pill
lars that support the heavy balustrade.
The officer Immediately reported the
fact to superintendent Farrelly of the
postoffice, who was on the second floor
of the building. Farrelly went out on
the portico and found the painter lying

At this popular theater one is sure
of seeing a good show, especially so is
"The Brand of Cain" Last night there
was a large and appreciative audience.
There will be the usual matinee this
afternoon. and with the performance
this evening closes its engagement

"UNDER THE POLAR STAR"
Probably the most elaborate scenic
and dramatic production ever given in
this city will be W. A. Brady's mag
nificent presentation of "Under the Po-
lar Star" which will be seen at the
Grand opera house for three days, COM
mepcing Thanksgiving matinee. AS
the title of the play suggests, it treats
of life and adventure in the Arctic re-
gions. Joe jefferson, the great actor,
after witnessing the presentation of
this play in New York last season said,
81 have been on the stage since child
witnessed a scene equal to act " of
Under the Polar STAR that nothing he
conceived in stage effect equals the
completeness of the Polar STAR 1t

a full year, had it not been for the
fact that Gilmore and Tompkins had
previously signed contract for the
Mapleson Opera company to appear for
four weeks.

ADA REHAN TOMORROW NIGHT.
Miss Ada Rehan, supported by Au-
gustin Days company, has been Sc
lected as the stellar attraction for
Thanksgiving and two following days.
The plays to be given are as follows:
Thursday evening, Much Ado About
Nothing" Friday evening, school for
Scandal" and Saturday, matinee and
night, Twelfth Night An exchange,
speaking of the performance, says:
Superbly mounted and brilliantly act
ed, Shakespeares exquisite comedy,
Much Ado About Nothing" was pre-
scented before a large audience at the
theater last evening by Augustin Da-
ly's Fifth Avenue theater company.
This was the first appearance of the
company since it's return from it's sea-
son in London, and the welcome was
hearty and quite enthusiastic. Beauti-
full in the extreme was the presentation
of the comedy, not a detail in stage
setting, scenery incidental music or
accessory which could add to perfection
was lacking and with the highest pleas
ure the audience followed the progress
of the play and witnessed with genuine
satisfaction the elegance and excellence
of the performance. much Ado About
Nothing is a play we'll suited to Mr..
Days company. BY it scope is given
to the power of this superior organiza-
ton. and principals and subordinates
are afforded full opportunity for the
largest display of their talents AS
Beatrice. Miss Rehan was Irresistible.
Possessing the subtle boldness temper
ed with maidenly proprety which the
part requires, she gives to the role the
fullness of spirit which it demands.
Clever in the extreme were her tits
with Benedict, right womanly was her
protection of the falsely accused hero,
and most charming was her admission
of love for her love-deriding but con-
verified sutton. Mr.. Richman's Benedict
must take rank with the best portray
ais of the character. He plays the part
with a freedom and grace which is fas-
cinating and there is nothing didactic
or restrained in his impersonation. Nat
uralness is the keynote of his success
in the role. Miss Nancy Mcintosh,
whose delightful acting in 1.-THE Geisha''
| and in other roles have made her q fa-
vorite, was very pretty and gentle
hero, and Mrs. Gilbert received a glad
welcome as Ursula. Sidney Herbert
| presented the character of Don John
| the scheming villain Of the comedy, ex-
cellently and John Craig was accepta-

Bile as the young Count Claudio Will

the requirements of their respective

During the presentation saraband
and a Medieval dance were given by
the principal members of the company
and proved interesting additions to the
performance. A notable and beautiful
feature was the serenade in the second
act sung by Mr.. McCay and the cho-
rus, and the gypsy dance which accom-
panied it.

At the Organized Charities.


Following the custom inaugurated
last year by Superintendent Kendall,
the children of the public schools are
contributing articles for the poor, and
sending liberal proportion of them to
the Charities for distribution.
The goods will be put up in bags, and
all persons known as needy by the as
ISOLATION, or coming to them with the
Endorsement of other societies or re-
sponsible individuals, will be sup
piled with a portion. Last year a
large number of families were thus
aided.

others.
All moneys received will be placed
to the credit of the Thanksgiving coal

yet "the poor We have with you al
ways" and the benevolent will have
ample opportunity to relieve the unfor-
tunate.
The office at 200 Orange street is open
from 6 a. m. to 8 p. m. and visitors
are cordially welcome at any time to
look over the work and examine meth
DDS.
The action of the school children can
not help but inculcate habits of benev-
olence, which will last in maturity.

COMMON SENSE CURE.
PYRAMID PILE CURE CURES PILES
PERMANENTLY BY CURING
THE CAUSE.
remarkable Remedy Which is bringing
Comfort to Thousands of Sufferers.


Comfort to Thousands of Sufferers.
Probably half the people who see this
artlcle suffer from piles. 1t is one OF
the commonest diseases and one OF the
most obstinate. People have 1t Tor
years and just because it Is not I'M
mediately fatal they neglect 1T. Care
lessness causes no end of suffering. Care
lessness about so simple thing as
piles has often caused death. Hemor-
rhages occur from no apparent cause
and loss of blood causes death. Hemor-
rhages occur during surgical treat
ment, often causing death.
Piles are simple in the beginning and
easily cured. They can be cured even
in the worst stages without pain or loss
OF blood, quickly, surely and complete
ly. There is only one remedy that will
do it-Pyramid Pile Cure.
1t allays Inflammation Immediately
heals the irritated surface and with
continued treatment reduces the swell
ing and puts the membranes into good,
sound healthy condition. The cure is
thorough and permanent.
Here are some voluntary and unsolic-
tied testimonials we have lately re-
ceived:
Mrs. NJ G. Hinkly, COL Mississippi
street, Indianapolis, Ind, says: Have
been a sufferer from the pain and an
noyance of piles for fifteen years, the
Pyramid Pile Cure and Pyramid Pills
gave me immediate relief and in a short
time complete cure.
Mr.. M. Griffin, proprietor Of the Grit
fin House, Detroit, Mich. says: I have
been a sufferer from piles until three
years ago I bought one box of the Ply
ramid Pile Cure and since then I have
had no piles. l have recommended
them to many friends and guests at my
hotel, every one of whom has beer
cured.
The above is true as my experience
has proved 1t and I hope it may induce
other sufferers to try the Pyramid.
