made between conditions here and
those existing In other communities.
The evils which abound In the cities OF
the East are appalling In their nature

wrongs that prevail all around them
than to 20 on on = tangent about somc-
thing they know little or nothing about.

The decision Of tho appellate court In

ng on the matter OF allowing colorod
children TO attend the same school with
white children. The ruling holds that
such Joint attendance IL not required.

At the Gaiety.

Excellent entertainments were given
at the Gaiety yesterday by the Wine,
Women and Song" company. The per-
formance opened with an olio in which
Josie Kline and Phil Gotthold the
Racket Brothers, in musical novel;
ties; Mazuz and Mazett, the comedy
acrobats, and Jenny Eddy and her
midgets give pleasing numbers. The
we'll known Burke Brothers and their
trained donkey created great merri-
ment and Bennett and Rich produced
lachrymose ballads, illustrated with
green snow wayward children, ETC.,
which were made endurable by the
tuneful voice of the vocal end of the
exhibition.
The after-piece entitled wine, Wo-
men and Song" gave the Burkes, Mr..
Gotthold, Master Itski and members
of the company ample opportunity for
hits in the presentation of clean humor
and bright musical gems. The troupe,
which it one of the best that has been
seen at the Gaiety this season, will
remain the balance of the week, with
matinees daily.

The officials of the borough can read
lily see the need of railroad crossing
gates near the Taylor stations of the
Lackawanna company and the Central
Railroad of New Jersey. For the past
few years those places have been open
death-traps, and it's surprising how
accidents have been averted. Our coun-
ell should have gates placed there.

"Battle-Scarred Hero

The attraction at the Ly cum next
Monday evening will be the distin-
guished comedian, Bert Coote, who
will present an entirely new and origi-
nal farcical comedy entitled "a Bat
tle-Scarred Hero" by Willis Maxwell
Goodhue. The complications are OF
the most unexpected kind and from
start to finish the play is one mass
of surprises. Mr.. CoOte will make an
entire departure from the line of char
acters with which he has heretofore
been associated, and ii is stated that
in Alonzo Fuller, the hero Of battles
he never saw, he has tho best part he
has ever portrayed. Mr.. Coote will
be supported by Miss Julia Kingsley.
