Interesting Information.
In connection with this it may be in,
teresting here to know that the prin-
cipal comedian in Trial by Jury and
the one responsible for much of the
success of the piece. was Frederick
Sullivan, father of the Frederick Sulli-
van who was at Elitch's last summer,
and brother of the composer.
The first hint of what was to follow
the joining of Gilbert and Sullivan
came with The Sorcerer," a comic
opera which run l75 nights, a record
a. that time. Climbing upward. they
followed this with III. NJ. S. Pinafore,'
which still holds the record. for runs

siasm never equaled and never waver-
ing. The Pirates of Penzance" was

the music as superior to that of Pima

Princess Ida followed, and in 1885
The Mikado" started a run which ri.
vailed "Pinafore." For these
D'Oyly Carte was large responsible by
reason of his fine staging.
When "Ruddygore" was offered in
1888, people began to say that the
charm vas broken and that the Gil
bertian humor was dying out. The
Woman of the Guard" followed and
then The Gondoliers," which scored
something of the former success.
1t was said of Sullivan's music, dur.

even his slightest pieces have a GER

Sir Arthur Sullivan's death was very

but it was not believed his heart was

A Sketch of His Career.
1t is something OF a coincidence-a
coincidence in the nature OF a tribute
TO genius-that perhaps the last i'm
portant news read to Sir Arthur Sui
Ivan was the announcement that there
had been a revival of all of his more
famous operas by one of the largest
companies which ever sung in New
York, and that the people were flock
ing to see The Mickado" with all the
enthusiasm which characterized its
flSlna productions.

Gilbert and Sullivan operas, and III

UNHERALDED AT PITTsBURG.

PITTSBURG, Pa, October H.-Wm.
Jennings Bryan arrived in the city unan-
nounced this morning over the Pittsburg
& Lake Erie road and left for Huntington
at 1:25 via the Pan Handle route. Through
failure to connect al this point with his
special car, which had been sent from Buff
falo ahead of him, Mr.. Bryan was COM
PEELED to take a Pan Handle train for
Columbus, where he will take a Norfolk
& Western train for Huntington, arriving
about one O'Clock tomorrow morning. Mr..
Bryan's short stay here was not marked
by any special ceremony, owing to the
fact that his coming was not known. His
presence soon became known. however,
and he was called upon at the Monongahe-
la house by a number of the local Demo-
cratic leaders just for a social chat.
The trip from the hotel to the station
was made by street car, and upon arrival
quite a crowd had gathered and insisted
on a handshake all round.
Leaving Pittsburg Mr.. Bryan immediate
ly sought his berth in the drawing room of
the sleeper, where he rested during the af
ternoon At the various towns through
which the train passed, crowds had gath
cred at the depots, but the candidate kept
his bed.

MEN WILL NOT WORK.

SAMOKIN, Pa, October 21.-Com-
mittees of United Mine Workers cam
vassed the Philadelphia & Reading Coal
and Iron Company strikers of this
place. Mt Carmel and Locut Gap to-
day to learn whether any of the men
intended goirg to work tomorrow. The
strike leaders this evening state that
no one would respond to the blowing
of the whistles excepting engineers and
fire bosses.
A prominent local official of the
Union Coal Company says the company
the demands made by the Scranton
positively refuses to concede to any of
convention. The company claims that
their busy season has been ruined by
the strike and they don't care when
the strike is settled, feeling positive
that they can hold out much longer
than the striking miners. The COM
pany controls four large collieries in
the Shamokin region.

past, no matter how the operators try
to figure it out, and we can AFFORD 10
bide our time for the settlement Of
the powder ISSUE"
OF course, there Is some opposition
to taking this position. There are
some strikers who favor holding out
until every demand is granted, but
this class is not in the majority. They
are men who own their own homes
and have their larders well filled for
the winter. They can afford to hold
out against the companies. but the
bulk of the strikers cannot. President
Mitchell is now thoroughly acquainted
with the condition of affairs in the
wyoming and Lackawanna regions,
and as late as to-day he told one of the
Luzerpe county officers of the United
Mine Workers who was in Hazleton,
that he would not stand in the way Of
a settlement If the miners of the Wy
oming region wanted to return to work
under certain conditions. Mr. Mitchell
is expected to take a decided stand to-
morrow or Tuesday on the issues that
now stand between the operators and
miners of the upper anthracite dis
trictS.

VERY BIG MONEY
by the Philippine Conn
mission for October Expenses.
Judge Taft Taking Testimony Con-
corning the Conduct and Policy of
the Friars--The Evidence Alleged
to be Against Them.

MANILA Oct. 21.-The Philippine
Commission has passed bill appropri-
ating s475,oOO gold, for the payment of
expenses incurred for the benefit Of
the insular government during Octo-
ber The bill goes carefully into detail
regarding the items OF expenditure
throughout the archipelago.
Judge Taft, president of the commits
sion, has been engaged for some time
in taking mass OF Filipino testimony
concerning the conduct and policy of
the friars, this being continuation of
the investigation which began with the
dispositions of bishops and members of
monastic orders. The statements Of the
Filpinos go to show that the friars. un-
der the Spanish regime, greatly abused
their limitiess political and religious
powers over the community and that
this abuse of authority often led to i'm
morality. All the testimony offered by
the Filipinos shows that they do not
desire the return of the friars to the
parishes.
Archbishop Chappelle has gone to the
more peaceful provinces OF northern
Luzon, accompanied by three Domini-
can friars 1t is asserted and generally
believed that he intends to re-establish
these friars in certain parishes; and the
trip is exciting the natives in Manila
who call upon their countrymen to pre-
vent the establishment of any friar
on the ground that it would fix dan
gerous precedent for the future.
Senior Buencamino has received what
purports to be a letter from Aguinaldo
ordering the formal leaders of the revolu-
ton who are now in Manila to desist
from the formation of political parties and
to cease all their attempts at pacification.
The letter mysteriously hints that plans
are maturing among the armed rebels in
the field, and describes these as best for
the country" Senior Buencamino declares
that the letter Is genuine.
The military situation was comparative
ly quiet last week. The commission, the
military authorities, the Filipinos and the
foreigners are awaiting the result of the
Presidential election in the United States.
Many persons assert that whatever this
may be it will have no immediate effect
upon the armed situation in the Philip
pines and that disorders and guerilla at
tacks VIII continue for a time.
Mr.. r. Wildman, Y. S. consul general at
Hong Kong, who is now in Manila, says
