WANTS TO SUE eRlecS.
Swiss Cook Was Kissed and Didn't
Like It.

Especial to seThe Jersey City News."1
PATERSON, Feb. q, 1S99.-Emma Yam
sen, a Swiss girl, until recently employed
in Acknowledgement Griggs' residence
here as laundress and assistant cook,
wants to bring suit against the Presi-
dents law adviser for S., which she says
is due her for services. Sh has consulted
James D. Donnelly, a lawyer, with a view
to bringing suit, but according to the
girls own statement n the lawyers
opinion, she has no chance of winning a
suit should one be brought.
Her story is that she was to receive S25
a month. She was at work one day re-
Gently when she heard sounds of laughter
coming from the kitchen, and she ran
hither to see what the fun was. She
says that a German delivery boy was
busily engaged in kissing one of the col
ored girls employed in the house. She
was Mortified and chided the German boy.
For answer the boy tried to kiss her.
According to her statement to Mr.. Don
nelly she would not allow this, as it was
disgusting after his kissing the wench.
too The girl claims that she ave notice
she was going to leave then and there,
but remained a day or two until her sue
cessor could be found. Then she received
SIT instead of S25, all that was due up to
the date of her leaving. She was told
by the lawyer that according to her own
story she had received all hat she was
entitled to. She went out from Mr.. Don
nelly's office vowing to find a lawyer who
did not like Mr.. Griggs and who would
bring suit.

There is a frst-class show at the Bon
Ton Theatre this week. Every person
fond of witnessing a good burlesque and
a very good number of variety acts
which are given in the olio, should take
a trip to this popular house. They will
be well repaid for their visit. The at
traction is the Merry Maidens Burlesque
Company, and every number on the pro-
gramme that was produced last evening
was received with hearty applause by the
large audience.
The opening part of the programme is
a burlesque, "A Night at the French
Ball. 1t is a very clever burlesque, well
staged and the costumes worn by the
ladies are exceedingly pretty. There are
a number of musical selections rendered.
which are led by Miss Nellie Hanly.
Sophie Everett opens the olio part of
the programme. and she is a very clever
artist. Brennan and Curran, the irish
comedians, are very good. Thelr act last
worth and Stockholm are a fine pair of
dancers and singers.
Miss Nellie Hanly in illustrated songs
was certainly the hit of the evening, and
when she rendered the song Just as the
Sun Went Down. with war illustrations
received almost shook the house. Hiatt
and Pearlee.t the musical team, are well
worth seeing. They are especially clever
with the harp and violin. The show
closes with a burlesque, THE Merry
weeks attraction will be the Gay Morn
ing GlOrieS.'

Mr.. Barker Gummere, Jr., Trenton,
My Dear Mr.. GummereI regret be-
yond measure that 1 will not be able
to be present at the reception of the
Republican Club at Trenton, Monday
for this occasion, as l had a sincere
desire to participate in It, particularly
as it is complimentary to my friend.
Senator Kean, but the requirements
of Congress are such that 1t is abso-
lutely necessary for me to be In Wash
ington on that day in connection with
the army bill. While my great desire
is to be with you, | cannot forego my
duty as a member of the Military Com
mittee of the Senate, as the life of the
nation is now depending on the ques-
ton of al army after the adjourn
ment of Congress.
Please present my regrets to the club
and it's guests, stating that nothing
but the most extreme condition of af-
fairs in connection with my Senatorial
duties would prevent the pleasure of
meeting with them at this reception.
1 am very truly yours.
Regrets were received from Congress
men Parker and Howell and from Frank
lin Murphy, Chairman of the Republi-
can State Committee.
Winkler's Orchestra played selections
during the evening, and a fine, lunch
was served by Hill. The reception was
voted a grand success by every one who
attended.

comforter Co neglected wives at so much
per, and by ~extravagant attention pre-
sumes to arouse the waning love of the
recalcitrant husbands by making them

complications. Miss Olive Redpath, an
artistic to her fngertips, graceful and very
clever, assumes the role of the Spanish
dancer, italian artist and French singer,
who is the cause of all the trouble She
has the three husbands at her beck and
call unknown to each other, and with
"That Man. Reuben Fox, carries the
honors of the play.
Miss Edyth Adhesion as Claire Harvest.
Miss Stella Kenney as Dolly Dalton and
Miss Matilda Cotterelly as the third of
the neglected trio of wives, each presented
her role in a bright and attractive
manner, lifting the character above the
ordinary run and avoiding hat soupcon
of ~vulgarity which too often marks parts
in that line. John E. Nice, as the elderly
admirer of the sparkling Dolores, made an
admirable character. His work was ex-
cellent and much appreciated. So, too,
was that of Squibbs, by Robert v. Fer
guson, whose portrayal of the English
| Jeames was as it should be. The remain
ing erring husbands, Tom Harvest by
Jack Drummer and Jimmy Dalton by Hen
nv Stockbridge were spiendidly presented,
and these artists managed TO extract a
great deal of excellent business out Of
their roles. The winsome little maid
Flora, a~ttractively played by MISS
Ramie Austen, completed the exceedingly
| excellent company now producing That
Man" Those who enjoy ~farcical comedy
of an ingenious and novel kind must see
it and they won't be disappointed.
