A cable dispatch from Paris to the
New York World says:
son our last voyage from New York
to Havre the French Liner La Bretagne
brought in two girls, stowaways, who
are sisters, from Wilkesbarre, Pa, one
of them being Is and the other 30 years
of age. They couldn't afford to come to
the exposition next year, so they slowed
away in the steamships hold and came
over in advance. They are prepossess-
ing lassies and when discovered and
summoned before the ships captain
they expressed an eagerness to work
and were finally hired to wait upon a
group of wealthy feminine tourists,
who brought the girls here and have
retained their services"

"Kidnapped in New York"

kidnapped in New York." which
comes to the Grand opera house Mon
day evening, is spoken of as being one
of the best comedy dramas touring the
road this season. Barney Gilmore, who
plays the part of Mr.. Dooley the Irish
detective, obtained distinction the last
three seasons in "Hogan's Alley" and
it is said that his success has been even
more pronounced. The part fits him to
a nicety and enables him to illustrate
his skill as character comedian. The
play is written around the recent abduc-
tion of Baby Marion Clark. While the
play is written to fit the times, it is said
to be very carefully constructed, and is
free from the hair-raising climaXes seen
in later day dramas. The company sup
porting Mr.. Gilmore is spoken of as
being above the average Special seen
cry is provided for the production.

The victims, young unmarried Hungar-
ians, had attended a christening during
the day at Enterprise, and incurred each
others enmity. They walked down the
Reading Railway distance Of seventy
five yards from the station. Removing
hats and coats, they started fighting
When the crew and passengers hur-
ried from the cars to see what had
occurred number of foreign residents
from Enterprise assembled and began
to make threats at the crew for not
stopping in time to prevent the tragedy
The passengers kept the Hungarians
back as the crew gathered the remains
of the victims and placed them in the
station to wait for the arrival of an
undertaken, after which the train pro-
ceeded to Willamsport.

minus of the Belt railway at 11th street and
Florida avenue, thence easterIy along Flor
lua ana Grant avenues TO 7th street or
