MISS RooNEY's EXPERIENCE.
Star Of the Girl From Ireland" Has
Adventures in New Haven.

Miss Katie Rooney, the bright little star
of the Girl from Ireland Co., to be at the
Bijou next week, had a delightful expert
ence in New Haven the 18th of March,
where the company was playing. 1t was
during the matinee and the house was
packed to the doors with one of those
riotous mobs of students. The different
societies vieing with each other in trying
to see which could shout their yells the
loudest. one would imagine that bedlam
a broken loose The members of the
company had considerable difficulty in
sustaining their characters.
When Miss Rooney appeared in mans
attire to do her speciality, it was the signal
for prolonged cheering, and it was some
time before she could go on. However,
she managed to get through with it and
on being encored was going to commence
again when a regular shower of sham
rocks came down on her from the gal
leries, the students at the same time call
ing to her to pick them up. Miss Rooney
smiiingly commenced her task, but found
the contract a larger n than she sup
posed and called on Mr.. Mark Murphy,
who was standing conveniently near, to
assist her.
On Mr.. Murphy's appearance he was
greeted with a regular broadside of howls
the boys not allowing him to touch a
single shamrock. insisting on Miss Rooney
picking up every n of them nerseif,
which she did. After the performance a
delegation waited for her and escorted her
to the hotel. It is such incidents as this

The examination of Richard croker,
yesterday, by Mr.. Weasel MOSS, the
Mazet Committees gimlet-in-chief. must
have been a sad disappointment to the
Republican ringsters who are trying to
make political capital for next fall as a
counterbalance to the rotten beer ana
other scandals of the National admins
tration.
No fair-minded person can say thai Mr..
Moss gained the least advantage over the
Tammany boss. What he. brought was
wen known already. To some persons 1t
Is d~istasteful. Others can see nothing
wrong about it. 1t just comes to this
that when the Tammany party is in
power, its chiefs and their friends get
the full benefit of the public patronage.
They are careful, however-at least for
all Mr.. Croker admitted to the contrary
to see that the public interests are placed
above everything else. The people are
given the best possible government; the
party enjoys the Incidental emoluments.
We confess to an inability to see any
thing p-reternaturally wicked in this. 1t
appears as If it was what party men
usually did-Republicans as well as DEM
ocrats, and not in New York alone but
all over the Union. not in this country
alone, but all over the world. We fail
TO see much difference, for instance, be-
tween Mr.. Croker with his sons in a
couple of prosperous companies, and Mr..
tom" Platt with one Of his sons in a
uoted-we had almost said notorious-law
frm, and another in what we have no
hesitation in calling q notorious surety
between Tammany, as Croker pictured it
yesterday, n the Republican party as
It is being shown up, in a couple of in
v~estigations now In progress, that differ
ence consists in the fact that Tammany
gives a fair return for what it enjoys,
whereas the Republican system is produc-
tive of poisoned soldiers and broken
banks.
So far the Mazet inquiry has been a
good deal of a boomerang. No doubt it
will furnish all the excuses wanted by
Roosevelt, Platt & Co. for depriying New
York City more and more of home rule
and for erecting a great t%yrannical State
machine. But, so far as the voters are
concerned, it will not profit its instigators
much. 1t will solidify more and more
the Democratic vote, and will help along
the revolution in State and National af-
fairs which will eliminate in 1900.

Gals to run the works under union regu-

factory will start UP as soon as the
works can be put in order.
No attempt has been made to operate

Cumberland works. This firm is adver-
Using in all South Jersey papers for nom
union blowers, and for boys to learn the
trade, guaranteeing them work all sum
mer and protection. so far they have had
very few responses.
The striking bottle-blowers are also jubi-
liant over the attitude of the window
glass blowers, who have come nobly to
their aid. The window glass workers to-
day notified the Cohansey and the More
Jonas glass firms that, they would lay
down their tools if these companies em-
ploy n~on-union men or assist the Cum
'berland Company by sending men to take
the strikers places. Favorable assur-
ances were given by both companies, and
they were allowed until tomorrow to
definit replies. The COMMITTEES also
waited on the Cumberland Company to
demand recognition of the union, but got
no reply, owing to the absence of Elmer
Shoemaker, one of the firm.

clares that his organization is in earnest
in the matter and will firmly stand by the

SCHUBERT GLEE CLUB.
Musical Programme Pre-
pared for the Last Con-
cert Of the Season.

The last concert of the Schubert Glee
Club for this season will be given at the
Tabernacle on Tuesday evening next. The
Executive Committee has evidently
spared no expense to make the close of
this season one worthy of long remem-
brance. .Ae programme is a particularly
interesting one, and may be considered
as containing an innovation on some OF
the Schubert traditions by the introduce
ton of Master Earle Gulick, the boy So
prano, who has been SO successful at the
Waldorf-Astoria and Carnegie Hall con-
certs during this season. Much interest
is manifested by the members of the club
as to how his appearance will be appre-
ciated by the subscribers. Mr.. Julian
Walker, basso, has also been engaged,
and in addition to his own numbers will
sing incidental solos in the works by the
club. An orchestra of twelve pieces has
also been secured, which, with the plano
and organ, will accompany the club in
several numbers.
The numbers by the club will include
.sTo joy 1.-THE Arion Waltz" THE
Brownies Polka" Pilgrims Chorus" and
paul Revere's Ride" In this last num-
Der, which is a new composition, arrang-
ed by Mr.. Dudley Buck, the club will
commemorate the n hundredth and
twenty-third anniversary of the event de-
scribed in the poem by Longfellow.
At the last annual dinner Of the Schu-
bert, Mr.. Buck, who was present, re-
ferred to his study on this work. and his
expectation of completing it very shortly.
The angem of the music is most
dramatic, the theme throughout being the
music of 1.-THE Star S~Dangled Banner"
iust enough of the air being introduced to
suggest our national hymn. AS the verses
follow, the theme is carried out by the
various pieces of the orchestra, and to the
words "a CHATTER of hoofs.' where Paul
Revere observes the agreed signal in the
church. tower, the work by the orchestra
initiates the galloping of a horse, again
when the horses hoofs strikes a spark
and the poet refers to 1t as the spark OF
liberty. the words are most delicately
shaded by the violins playing several bars
of our national song. The last verse glvee
an opportunity for a grand chorus, partly
in unison, and here the air is at last
brought out fully with the orchestratfon
One of the members of the Music Com
mittee incidentally suggested to Con-
ductor Baier that the rendition of this
number would bring the audience to its
feet and the agreement is that if this
does not prove true, hat member pays
for a boxof cigars for the club. If on
trary Mr.. Baier does the same.

Tribun. sttl1 S1andering.

We find this in this mornings TIT

Jersey City has less to show for is
high taxes than any community Oh nv
Inference is obvious. What it has in the
way of public improvements are Jne
fruits of Republican administration. Wnal
it has in the way of large tax bhis Is tne
result of Democratic rule.
In the past seven years the net deb
of Jersey City has been reduced from
$40, ooO,o 900, the amount piled up by the Re
publican ring. to SIG, 600. 900.
We have in that time built fourteen new
schools, including No. 1, which is the
finest school building in New Jersey.
In ten years we nave built four new
police station houses, and We have estab-
lished a patrol and signal system.
We have built half a dozen new engine
houses. several new engines and a COM
plete new outfit of hose. We have estab-
itshed a full paid corps Of hremen in
stead of the hosemen-at-call.
Leaving the Boulevard out of the ques-
ton, we rave constructed macadamized
drive way four miles long.
We have asDhalted about twenty-five
miles Of streets.
We have macadamized and paved prob
ably a hundred miles in the last ten
years.
We have two viaducts from the fats
to the Hill.
We have built a new City Hall.
We have purchased the land for a new
Free Public Library building.
We have purchased sites for five new

We have severed and closed in Mill

We have filled in several square miles

ADJUSTMENTS


Pau GIlmore's version OF THE Muske-
teerss will be seen at the Academy OF
Music next week. This Is one of the
three companies which have lately waged
a rivalry in New York City. Each has
had its champions and admirers, and all
have given great satisfaction. Dumas
plays are always good. and probably none
nave surpassed the story of the bold
D'Artagnan for chivalry and romantic
color. The company to be seen here Is a
large one, and the entire scenic equipment
is new and historically correct. Romantic
players are having their day just now,
and Mr.. Gilmore and his company know
how to wear long plumes and handle big
swords. One of the great features of
'The Musketeers' is the quantity of
fighting done-duelling being forbidden
made it fashionable and the Kings and
Cardinals men followed the craze to the
limit.
Mr.. Chauncey Olcott will give his new
romantic play, "A Romance of Athlone,"
next week. This will close the season.
