Remember this, that money sent out
of the county for goods does not help
pay taxes and in the long run you can
do just as we'll with merchants at
home as you can abroad. Besides that,
you encourage concentration of wealth
that will sooner or later eat the very
vitals out of this nation. 1t makes the
rich richer and the poor poorer, Many
peopleundoubtediy think that they save
money by doing SO, but all things con
sidered. they do not.

BY the Typographical Union. we do not
deny the tact; but it is only fair to con-
slider that The Jersey City News the
Democratic organ of this city, made pre-
eisely the same concession in its job De-
partment. Sc honors are again easy,
there.
Further, '.The News runs a strict union
office, whereas the Evening Journal is
only what is known as an 'sopen' office,
and has many employees who are not
union men.
We do not know whether Mr.. Watson
was aware of the substantial falsehood
Of almost every statement to which he
has affixed his name in the circular which
we have thus reduced to sawdust. But
we know that the document, as it stands,
places him in a very painful dilemma. If
he did not know the truth, and signed
the document in ignorance, he is a very
absurd sort of dupe and fool. On the
contrary, if he knows the truth. and thus
wilfully m~isrepresented it for campaign
purposes, he is nothing better than a liar
and a %scoundrel. In either case, he is
totally NIT to be Mayor of this city.

Bon Ton Theatre.

There is no gainsay1ng that the Ethto-
plan has a music-loving soul and a fund
of natural hufnor which is effervescent..
Manager Jonn Graham, always progress
sive, was among the first to realize the
sterling qualities of the negro as a YER
satile entertainer and his success with
dusky performers has been remarkable.
However, this season he will present a
mammoth company of genuine colored
people, numbering among its perform
ers the very pick of the race in this
country. Among the we'll known artists
of sterling merit with the ompan are
Mr.. and Mrs. Tom Mcintosh, William
Mozambique English, Miss Carrie Lucas,
Rastus & Banks, Mile. Perkins, Siren
Navarro. In addition to these star
cards there will be a big chorus Of hand
some creoles, octoroons and q~uadroons.
These maidens are striking types, and
they are talented as well. They will con-
tribute plantation songs, and a genuine
colored cake-walk, to which their dazzling
beauty will give added attractiveness.
There Will also be a ladies' quartette, a
male quartette and quintette, and all
who witness this unique entertainment
will agree that it is the greatest singing
show before the public. The entire show
will be found right up to date and all
the old-time schemes for introducing me-
gro jollity and comedy have been ADAM
doned. Manager Graham desires only the
best and his great Southern Specially
Company will this season present a new
and bright comedy, entitled Sarah Jack
sons Reception, written especially for
this by Mr.. James F. Mentally
Of the Boston Herald" a bright young
farceur. The ensemble will be introduce
ed and many novelties will be seen dur
the action of the skit.

his pen. "a Female Drummer is destined
to be in the lead. The story Of the COMEDY
branches out into new lines, avoiding the
well beaten paths of plots in the past, ana
is primful of bright, witty sayings and
pleasing incidents. AS the story runs, two
old department store proprietors, Smooth
& Silk and a clever Female Drummer
Hasa Bargain by name, are the especial
people around whom the play reyolves.
The humor Of the story is contagious and
the audience is kept happy from the rise
to the fall of the curtain. The action OF
the play drumming through three acts)
discloses the offices of Smooth q SILK,
with a glimpse of the interior of the store
in the distance: second act, full interior
of the large department store with its
bargain rushes SO dear to the feminine
heart, in full swing, prices being marked
down from one dollar to ninety-nlne cents,
bargains not c-omprehended by masculine
brains. The last act is the scene OF the
s~alesladies' ball in the tropical gardens
of a prominent New York hotel, and Is
perfect in every detail, which gives each
member of the company an opportunity
to display his or her talents. OF, the
people who have been engaged to inter-
pref Mr.. Blaney's work in "A Female
Drummer too much cannot be said in
their praise. Miss tombstone Bennett as
Hasa Bargain, "A Female Drummer, :
who positively appears at every perform
ance. and whose work. in the metropolis
has gained for her the plaudits Of all
theatre goers, portrays the character with
a dash and vivacity sufficient to win
everything before her. h instills into
the part the energy and movement neces-
sary for success in that line. Mr.. George
Richards in the character of Smooth has
a line of comedy decidedly congenial to
his tastes and ability, while the we'll
known comedian, Eugene Canfield, as the
elevator boy, gives the vagaries OF that
parsonage true to life. Mr.. Tony Will
liams handles the part of Silk. junior
partner. with his usual skill. Willis Fl.
Sweatnam, well known to all lovers Of
minstrelsy as a superstitious negro, Is
prominent throughout the play. The en-
tire cast consists of competent artists and
the effect is heightened by the ADDITION
Of twenty-five of the prettiest girls

etc, help to bring about good results.

School for Nurses at Minneapolis. She
writes:
During the past five years I have found
that where the system was run down,
nothing was so good as Paine's celery
compound. The doctors have often pre-
scribed it to patients under my charge,
and I have noted the very satisfactory
results. I am glad to recommend it to my
friends"
Mrs. Georgiana Dean, who is. a gradu-
ated nurse from the Francis Willard Ma
tional Temperance Hospital of Chicago,
says
s'In my experience as trained nurse, l
have often observed that where a patient
has been very weak, Paine's celery COM
pound has quickly returned him to his
wonted vigor, whenever the physician has
prescribed it,
Paine's celery compound is now the
only spring remedy demanded by thought
full men and women. 1t has pushed aside
the countless unscientiic, catch-penny
preparations that have no standing
among reputable physicians and nurses.

The opportunity to try Is certainly

will present for the first time in this city
THE Ragged Earl new comedy drama
written for him by Ernest Lacy ana
Joseph Humphreys, in which he has made
an emphatic hit. The piece has won I'M
doubted popularity wherever presented,
and it will surely duplicate that favor in
this city. The production is in every re-
spect an elaborate one, the same in regard
to company and scenic effects as given
for a month to crowded audiences at the
Academy of Music, New York.
Mr.. Mack needs no Introduction to local
p~laygoers. In fact, he is so well known
and so well liked that a series of large
and enthusiastic audiences may be safely
predicted for him.. He has many qualities
that go far toward winning an audience,
and he thoroughly understands how to
use his gifts. He has an excellent stage
presence, a keen sense of humor, earnest
ness and sincerity in all his stage work,
and a tenor voice which he uses with sure
effect in Irish ballads, old and new. In
The Ragged Earl he has the role Of a
redu III and all-but-vagabond nobleman,
and is as good at sword play as he is at
singing; who would rather fight than eat,
and who makes love all round with de-
lightfuI assurance. The comedian makes
his appearance in the first act with a
stirring song, and so effectively that he is
sure, TO captivate his audience in very
short order.
AS the young earl, he sings TO the chill
dren, espouses the cause of the oppressed,
and promises a duel to every man that
crosses him. A girl in boys clothes falls
in love with him and gets into deep trou-
BILE. In the second act the earl seeks out
his supposed boy friend; discovers the
boy is a girl, and promptly falls in love
with her. He promises to rescue her from
a hateful marriage, and on top of this
marriage comes plenty of lively action.
The earl fights a duel with MS sweet
hearts villainous stepbr3ther, ard is dis
armed. Instantly he seizes a long dis
used Sword from a stand of armor, and
with this weapon vanquishes his enemy,
smashes a stained glass window, and
escapes through it by a flying leap. In
the last act there is, of course, the
usual happy ending, but it is brought
about only after the young earl has done
more fighting for his sweetheart, in
which he is aided by his loyal peasantry.
Among Mr.. Maek's songs are My Swee-
Maid Mack's Lullaby and "Tae
Cruiskeen Lawn
In Mr.. Mack's supporting company are
George w. Deyo. Edwin Brandt, b. T..
Ringgold, John c. Fenton, Thomas Jack
son, w. j.. Mason, Annie Ward Tiffany,
Josephine Lovett, Anna Barclay and
Georgia Florence dip.
