It Took That Long to Deliver a Postal
Card in Norway.

Christiania, Oct. ga postal card has
just been received at the postoffice here,
which has taken eighteen years to trav-

The two dates on the postal card are
"Stavangsr, June Is, $780, and Chris

How this card was so long in reaching

nobody is able to say.
The postal authorities at Stavanger
and Christiania are busy investigating
this extraordinary mystery.

Expiration Of a Theatres Lease.

The lease OF the Bijou Theatre, at
Tenth and Tatnall streets, held by Frank
Campelia, expired yesterday, and the
theatre is now in position to- be re-
leased by any one who may see fit.to en-
gage in theatrical ventures.
The building is owned by David Hess,
of Sixth and Walnut streets, Philadel-
phia. and is subj ,ct to- rental from Sut-
ton & Co., $50 Market street, this city.
Campelia had a three-year lease from
Hess on the building, paying $3.50 per
month. His business enterprises here
we're apparently unsuccessful as lie has
LETT the city owing considerable amount
to printers, bill posters, newspapers and
numerous other parties.
1t is claimed that the reason the the
atre has not been used Of late by COM
panies is that they were afraid that the
box receipts would be attached for Cam
pelia's indebtedness. Another objection
was that Mr. Campelia was never to be
found here and parties desiring to rent
were required to go to his place OF busl-
ness on Eighth street, Philadelphia,
where he conducts hotel, to see him.
1t is also said that the place has never
been conducted in proper manner and
that when parties presented their DIS
at the box office Mr.. Campelia woud ask
them to "come back in an hours time. !"
Upon returning Campelia would be
found missing. Whether steps will be
taken by Mr.. Campelia's numerous
creditors to recover could not be ascer-
tanned.
