AMUSEM IS,

In the nineteenth edition of this spec tacle, Manager Charles II. Yale, under whose management the Devils Auction has for eighteen seasons amused many throughout the length and breadth of the country, promises in it's coming pre- sentation at the Jefferson Theatre a change from any former production.
 Mir. Yale, who has recently established in Philadelphia large theatrical studio and warehouse, has surrounded himself with corpes of scenic artists. papier- mache modelers theatrical carpenters property makers. costume designers and makers. and the result 1t is said, is a new spectacle.
 It has been the aim of Manager Yale to introduce an innovation in every part and portion of the play
 The story of the Devils Auction" however, has proven most elastic and capable of innovation, and the manage ment realizing and taking advantage of this, have each year hung upon the thread of it's story" all that could be pro cured in the way of new features and have thus in this manner always given performance which has attracted the theatregoers and established the record of longevity, which 1t now possesses.

"Princess Chic"

That we do not have to look to for eign sources for the best in comic opera Is evidenced in 'The Princess Chic which with Marguerite Sylva in the title role is going to be heard at the Jefferson Theatre next Thursday.
 The opera was voted the musical and comic hit of the season when it played it's three weeks engagement during the hol- idays in Chicago. The critic of the Chi cago Chronicle said: "The effect of Krke LaShellc and Julian Edwards is an am- bilious and successful one. Between them they have produced the best light opera from American hands.
 'The audience at the Grand last night manifested it's pleasure in a most gratify- ing way and demanded many encores. Here we have as a star a woman with a good voice, fine stage presence and real dramatic ability. About her she has gath cred a company of singers of exceptional ability
 Miss Sylya knows how to sing-that is a requisition few opera bouffe artists pos sess. She is also an extremely pretty woman; furthermore, she is not constant ly advertising her consciousness of her good looks. Fine appearance. modesty good vocal style. these constitute her capital stock. She won the favor of large house last night"

 INTEREST IN DEAL
Statement Regarding Sale of
 Rogers Locomotive Works
THE RUMOR IS SET AT REST
F, p. Holran, Transfer Agent of the Railroad Company, Who Is the Pur- chaser, TaIks-PIant To Be
 Started Up.

The Rogers Locomotive Works of Pat erson, N. J., the sale of which was re- ported a few days ago, purchased by r. P. Holran, transfer agent of the Louis vile and Nashville Railroad Company for himself and associates The fact that an agent of the Louisville and Nashville purchased the plant, gave rise to the be- lief that the Louisville and Nashville was back of the deal. This rumor was set at rest by a declaration made by MT. Hol- ran as he was leaving the United States for Europe. In an interview he said:
 MT. Smith and I have purchased the locomotive works but l want to deny the report that the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Company, or ,Mr August Bel mont had anything to do with the trans action Several gentlemen who believe that the purchase is a good proposition have agreed to finance the deal.
 Our connection with the matter arose in this way: MT. Smith and l are friends. We both live at Englewood, and when saw that the Rogers Works were in the market I said to Mir Smith This is a good thing Why not go into 1t and see if we cannot do something with the worlxs? We practically closed the deal Monday last.
 Nearly all the paperc ave been signed As to the price paid I can say nothing yet. We are satisfied-that is all can say now.
 We will start the locomotive works as soon as possible. This will be within a few months. We expect to make improve ments and extensions. The old hands will all go back to work, and probably others will have to be employed and we expect to have the works running at full ca pacty."
 The MT. Smith referred to in Mir. Hol- ran S interview is Elliott C. Smith of the banking firm of Norton and Company of New York.

NUISANCE LAW
May Cause the Removal of Several
 Residences in Tennessee.

Knoxville, Tenn, March 29.-A special to the Journal and Tribune from Nash vile states that the State Senate had passed a bill giving the judges of the courts discretionary powers in the abate- ment of nuisances, a bill which is intended to apply to the Ducktown Copper mines. The copper men regard the bill as the possible source of annoyance and hind rance. Tbe fumes from the roasting ovens and filters spread for several miles around and kill all vegetation. It is feared that the law will compel the re- moval of residences out of the immediate district of the mines.
