HOYT'S LATEST SUCCESS TO.
TONIGHT.

HOYT'S LATEST SUCCESS TO-
TONIGHT.
Mr. Hoyt will introduce to theatre
goers of this city his new play, "A
Stranger in New York" tonight. 1t
deals with the adventures of a man
who goes to New York for only one
night. During that short period he has
many strange experiences, and
arouses great curiosity among
his chance acquaintancss as to his
identity. This he persistently conceals.
and departs as suddenly as he came,
leaving mystery in the minds of those
whom he has encountered in his me-
teOric visit. The scene of the first act
is in the Hoffman House. in the ladies
reception parlor; that of the second
and third acts in a studio in the tower
Of the Madison Square Garden, New
York, showing the hallway and the
three working elevators The new
piece is a musical farce-comedy. and
has been written somewhat on the same
lines as "A Trip to Chinatown" " Il may
be accused" said Mr. Hoyt, "of repeat
ing Chinatown in "A Stranger in New
York but as the new piece has already
eclipsed the success Of the Trip | am
perfectly satisfied" Joseph Coyne and
Miss Charlotte Crane are cast for the
principal roles, and they will be ably sec
onded by the strongest comedy company
Messrs. Hoyt & Mckee ever organized
This production will be given under
the personal direction of Hoyt & Nc
Kee.

A WEATHER EXHIBIT
Prof Moore Is Planning one for the
Paris Exposition.


Prof. Willis L. Moore, chief Of The
United States weather bureau, las
outlined plan for an exhibit at the
Paris neutrality-suspicious. 1900
which will be oneof the most interest
ing and novel in character Of any ever
gotten upby Il government foran event
Of the kind.
Its proposed to cableto Paris every
morning the results Of the obscrva-
tons in the United States, so that
charts can be made from lithogrupb
plates over there. which Will be as well
executed as the ones issued daily in
Washington. The obstacle chat first
presented itself was the great cost il
was believed it would entail to cable
all the data sufficient TO prepare the
charts. Prof Moore, however, has
worked ont a special cipher for use in
cabling the essential points, with the
result that he figures the total cost will
not exceed $25 day. Prof Moore
says maps of the United States, show.
ing all that anyone would care to know
about the weather conditions, can be
placed in the hands of Americans at
a comparatively early hourin the day.
No other government in the world,
says Prof. Moore, has the facilities
for making a showing in the metero
logical line the United States has.
The system of gathering the results
of observations in places far distant
from one another is more perfect in
this country than anywhere else, and
the science has reached its highest de-
velopment here.
The widely varying climatic con.
ditions in different sections at the
same hour will, Prof. Moore thinks,
give foreigners.who have not travelled
in this country an idea of the vastness
of the country that they could not get
in other ways, as well as an idea of
what an important institution to peo-
pie interested in farming and business
the weather bureau may be made

Some Plain Facts.

Grave errors, injustice, wrongs of
greater or less degree, arise from lack
of knowledge of the truth, and more
frequently from deception.
The most infamous case on record
of deception and injustice is the at
tempt to demonetize silver as money
of final redemption in the United
States.
There is no learned judge, skilled
lawyer, or court of justice that is
capable Of reconciling the effort with
the constitutional laws that govern
the issue of money in this country.
The people have been deceived,
officials in power, chosen to admins
ter justice under the laws, have
ignored their sworn duty, and given
aid to the scheme that has paralyzed
industry, reduced property values
one-half, and beggared millions.
There is no authority of law, either
specific or by inference, by which
gold alone is made the only money
with which to discharge debts, either
public or private, The effort to
make it so is unconstitutional and a
national calamity.
Plain and ample information, facts,
and truth, concerning this almost sue
cessful scheme to corner the wealth
Of the people, is now being printed
in the Cincinnati Enquirer, a news
paper which the combined power of
money has failed to muzzle or buy.
The Weekly Enquirer is only 75c.
