ENTERTATNM ENIS.
Hyperion 'rheater.

The second presentation at the Hype- iron of "The Drummer Boy, or Spy of Shiloh repeated even more decisively the success of Monday evening. Some of the best work ever done by local tall ent was seen last evening. Mrs. L. c. Goodrich as Mrs Rutledge Is eXcep- tionally fine, and as was said during the progress of the play the part is too limited for one of her musical ability Miss Edith May Root as Mrs. Elliott portrays the character to perfection, and her work with MT. Jewell in the first and last acts was much enjoyed by all. The entire local cast is the best ever produced in this city, and really far above the average of many profess sional companies on the road Every one should see ''The Drummer Boy" at one or more performances during the week. The performance last night was given for the benefit of the N. E. o. P. The matinee to-day is in aid of the Grace and New Haven hospitals. Sat urday evening '"The Drummer Boy" as- sociation will donate a percentage of the receipts for that evening to the fund Deius raised in aid Of the families of the four brave firemen who lost their lives at the recent fire in this city.

 James c. Van Loo, the Gofle street Y. MI c. A. secretary, has returned to the city Francis Peregrino, who talked so smoothly about the mission field in Africa, proved to be slick rascal. Van Loo did not suspect anything wrong until they were nearing New York, when he suggested they call at the missionary headquarters. This did not seem to meet Perigrinos approval. Much against the zulu's will Van Loo excused himself long enough to confirm his suspicion by making the necessary inquiries and when he returned with an officer Mir. Zulu" failed to appear again. For long time Van Loo has had desire to go to the mission field and this partially explains how he was so easily carried away by this Zulu Chief" but 1t is quite evident that this les- son will last him life time.

PoIt's Wonderland Theater.

Nat Wills tramped out on Polfs stage last night and the crowd began to laugh before he said word Wills kept them going for twenty minutes, with jokes and song parodies, each one rousing laugh maker.
 The bill is pure variety offering, de- void of society acts, and bright with headlines. The Garrisons, with their burlesque tragedy, are a sterling hit that is winning unstinted praise. The Four Miltons in a musical skit Are more than pleasing, and a great hur- rah goes up during the act of Fitzgib- bons, Mccoy and F'itzsibbons, for it is very funny and full of life. Nellie O'Neill, the Four Otis, the Farrels, Louise Dacre and the vitagraph are all excellent offerings. Prices: Matinee, 10c and 20c: evening. 10c 20c and 30e; ladies at matinee. 1ec.

Christianity, and more g
efforts In behalf OF the
betterment OF humanity and the glory
of the age. all true men will be glad
and will rejoice in that kind Of pro-
gress. So let it be. That the twenti-
eth century will have distinctive sue
cesses and giories OF its own we may
materialism may make great strides we
are prepared to believe. But it Is not
all Of life to live. The following We take
from an editorial by the capital writer
who edits the Richmond (Va-) Central
Presbyterian. Rev. DR.. James p. Smith,
who We think deserves to rank with
the best Of southern stylists:
THE passing out Of the nineteeth
century into the twentieth is an occa-
sion Of great impressiveness. Much
will be written Of the changes wrought
in the world in the century past. Mar
vellous n rapid has been the pro-
gress made. in the opening Of the
world, in the Intercourse of the ma
tons, n elevation of the masses. IN
literature, science and government.
And representations will be made as
TO the changes that will surely come
in the century On which We now en-
ter.
But We are much more concerned
with the and outlook of the
kingdom Of God on earth. All other
things shall fail and pass away, Gods
kingdom shall never fail. 1t is for
the church &c Christ that the world
exists today, and unto it shall be
brought the glory of the nations. and
at his feet one day all crowns shall be
laid. Some clouds there are that
darken the sky. The word of God has
suffered from the criticism of the pro-
feSsed friends, not from the as
Sault of its enemies. The do%ctrinal
teachings Of the churches are impugn-
ed and discarded by many"

It is to be hoped that the United
States senate will not allow fellows to
take seats who were not elected by the
legislature, save only where the COVER
nor appointed between sessions of that
body. This latter day way of a parti-
san governor appointing a friend of
more than doubtful record as to char
acter after the legislature refused to
elect him is vicious and despicable.
The Baltimore Sun says:
"When rivalries among the candi-
dates for senatorial honors are so acute
that neither faction will agree to a
compromise, but obstructs action by the
legislature until the session closes, the
senate declines to admit to it's member
ship the aspirant who secures a certi-
ficate of appointment from the govern
or of the state. If the state is thereby
deprived of it's representation, the
blame rests not upon the senate. but
h legislature.
The terms of 80 senators expire on
March 3,1901, and it is TO be hoped that
their successors will be chosen prompt
ly and without the disgraceful scandals
which ave occurred in the past few
years. Three states. Utah. Delaware
and Pennsylvania, are without full rep
resentation in the senate, and in two Of
them, at least. there is a possibility
that the vacancies may remain I'M
filled"
