STRONG ACTING COMPANY.

At Opera House all next week. In select
ing 'Thc Two Orphans" to make their
debut fol the season of 1898, and also
incidentally opening the theatrical season
the Kennedy Players essayed u piece whose
roles demand dramatic talent that ordi-
narily is not found lin repertoire COM
panes. But it can be said without cxces.
sve praise that the Kennedy Players this
season arc Il strong acting company
superior to all except one, and tho equal
of that. that has ever played to popular
prices in Plainiield. 1t Is certain that no
organization in the same class has Mt
tempted to present q play requiring the
efforts of real artists in stage craft and
succeed better than the Kennedy Players
do. Tho pathetic story of Tho Two
Orphans" popularity approved in oceans
of tcars that have been shed ever since
Kate ClaXton played the sightless orphan,
Is too we'll known to tho theatre going
public to need repetition at this time In
the affecting character Of the blind girl,
Louise, Miss Carrie Louis carried out tho
naturalnoss Of the role in manner that
was best attcstcd in the tear dimmel eyes
seen here and therejin the house as she be-
aye d he various emotions of the simple
and afflicted girl that she was. AS her
sister and only guiding hand, Miss Cert
rude Dion Magill was equally effective in
her resolute determination to find her
blind sister at all hazards. As the crippled
friend in whose company cruel fate has
thrown the sightloss orphan, John j.
Kennedy, the stellar light of the organiza-
ton, was sympathetically subducu In his
earnest interest and ultimate love for the
unfortunate girl.

Paid the Officials.

Although no officials of the city have
been regularly elected, they will receive
their salaries. Tho miscellaneous and the
Council pay rolls were passed on Thurs.
day night. The names of tho officers who
have not been elected were on these rolls,
and when they were read no objections
were made by the Republicans, a. they
actei according to tho advice of their at.
torney.
There was no question about any of the
salaries except those of the clerks of tho
auditor and the city treasurer. Clcrk Nor.
rison and Bailitf Ryan of Council were
elected pro tom, and their salaries con.
tlnued the Same as usual until pei mapept
officers are chosen. The law provides for
the city auditor holding his position, so no
question can bc raised about Auditor
Pyle's salary. The city docs not pay the
salaries of the conl oil inspector and clerk
OF the mar kct for as they do the work they
collect their fees.
When tho question of tho pay roll was
brought up both sides consulted counsel.
ana the Democrats and Republicans were
advised that rs tho clerks of the auditor
ana ne city treasurer had rendered tho
services they were entitled to the money,
therefore tho pay roll was passed without
beng questioned. The members of the
financc Committee had also received lie.
shl advice and after the committee up.

Thought bo,t to raise no objection, al
though Guy Solicitor Conrad had given
