PJTRJIC BATH HOUSE.

A public hearing of the public bath house question will be held tomorrow night by the public bath house com mittee of the common council. It is or the utmost importance to the reallza- ton of this worthy project that every body who favors it be present and lend his support Two or three hearings have already been given by the com m;ttee this summer, but the attendance was so small each time that it was postponed, so that if the hearing has to be postponed again Tuesday night for this reason the chances of an ap- propriation being made for the purpose are decidedly decreased
 The project was put on foot last spring by the Mems Neighborhood club of the Yale mission in the form of petition to the common council and readily found supporters enough to gain it's immediate consideration by the council. It is proposed to keep up the work until successful issue is reached.

Modjeska is finally forced to the win dow, he lOoses his balance; Vladimir luns him through, and Modjeska falls through the window to the ground be- low, just as the minister of police en- ters with warrant for his arrest as a Nihilist.

 l Charles F. Evans in David Belasco's
 Naughty Anthony" will be seen at
 the Hyperion, Friday and Saturday nights of this week, with matinee Sat- urday. The announcement should at tract one of the largest audiences of the year. inasmuch as it promises the return to the stage of one of the clever est comedians that have ever delighted the public. There is abundant comedy in Evans legs alone, to say nothing of the irresistible delight in his merry and smiling countenance. We have only to recall the days when Evans and "Old Hoss' Hoey toured the country in "A Parlor Match" The memory of those nights of uproarious laughter, and of Evans important share in them will sufficiently indicate what may be eX- pected of this prince of n-makers. Just before Naughty Anthony" MT. Belasco will present one of his recent London triumphs, Madame Butter fly" both together forming a double bill of rare excellence. Seats on sale Wednesday. Prices $1, 75 and 50 cents.
