ROssi's attempt to arrest the pope in person. In Hall Gaines novel and in Mir Trees version, which Miss Allen refused to accept, the heroine is an i'm pure woman. In Miss Aliens version, Donna Roma's good name is preserved and the play ends happily. That Miss Allen was correct in her ideas has been rather conclusively proved by the fact that Mir. Tree was rather severely cen sured because Donna Roma in his yer sion Of The Eternal City" is made a bad woman, and for the further reason that the play ends unhappily. The play is divided into five acts and eight scenes, all laid. in Rome. It is said to be very magnificent one. Donna Roma's studio is one ofthe most elabor- ate interiors ever seen upon the stage. Miss Aliens supporting company is an ideal one in all respects, and includes such famous players as Edward Mor- gan, Frederic de Belleville, E. M. Hol- land, W. E. Bonney, George c. Boni- face, Affie Warner, Henry Harmon. William EviIle and c. Leslie Allen. An attractive feature of the performance is said to be the incidental music by Pietro Mascagni.

DEATH OF JOHN DAVIDSON.
Well Known scotchman Dropped Dead
 While nt Work.

The sudden death of John Davidson at the Westville paper mills, which took place about 7:30 yesterday morn ing, caused quite a consternation in the quiet village, which nestles at the foot of West Rock. MT. Davidson was one of the oldest residents of the place and had worked for the Parker & Sons Go. for upwards of thirty years. He left his home as usual yesterday morning and, according to the statements of the family, was if anything brighter and cheerier than usual. He had just fin ished attending to the preliminary du- ties of the day and had commenced to talk with one of the employees on mat ters relating to the days business, when suddenly and without any warn ing he threw up his hands and would have fallen to the floor but for the fact that the party he was iii conversation with was close at hand and he fell into his friends arm. It was at first thought that he had tainted, but it soon be- came apparent to those around that John, as he was familiarly called, had opened the throttle of his engine for the last time and had passed to the land where no more toll is required. Dr. Marsh of Whalley avenue arrived at the mill in very short space of time, but his services were of no avail and he immediately reported the matter to Medical Examiner Bartlett. Heart failure was the cause of death. MT. Davidson was a native of Dundee, Scotland, and came to this country nearly forty years ago. He was a charter member of Clan MceLod No. S1, Order of Scottish Clans, and had all ways taken an active interest in the workings of the society and was held in the highest esteem by its members, amongst whom he never had a single enemy. He had travelled extensively in various parts and had an unusually interesting way in telling his experi- ences of bygone days. He was brim- ming over with Scotch anecdotes and stories and it was indeed pleasure for those who hadthe opportunity to spend social hour or two in his company. He was also a member of Olive Branch lodge No. 4S, F. and A. M., and the United Order of Workmen. Deceased is survived by his widow, his daughter, Miss Jennie Davidson; his son, George Davidson, and his eldest daughter, who is the wife of E. A. Bowditch, agent for the Davis Feed company of Fair Ha- ven.
 The funeral will take place from his late home, 24 Forest street, and the interment will be in Westville, ceme- tery

The story of the love of southern girl and the trials and tribulations met with in winning her hearts desire is not new theme for play but the very spirit and atmosphere and the al- most lovable inconsistencies of a peo- pie to whom traditions are more logi- cal than facts, all this together with action which is not hurried, and situ- ations though sensational and melo- dramatic, are never forced, has been obtained by the authors of "A Ken lucky Feud," the new and thrilling do- mestic melodrama which will be seen here at the Grand opera house on Thursday, Friday and Saturday this week, with matinee Saturday. The first act is strong in attracting sym pathy and in putting the audience in touch with the play. The motives and desires, the aims and ambitions of the characters are appreciated and links are forged which, from the first rise of the curtain, bind stage and auditorium together. It is clever play, beauti- fully staged and it's presentation here will no doubt meet with the genuine approval bestowed upon it in other cities where it has been presented.

COAL CHEAPER IN NEW YORK
TWENTY THOUSAND TONS RE-
 CEIVED THERE YESTERDAY.

Supplies at Goldberg, \. J, and New
 burgh, N. Y, Also ReIeassd-P Price EI-
 psc'ed to be s7 50 by Thuradsy and sI
 Less Next Week.
 New York. Oct. 2S-More than twen- ty thousand tons of newly-mined an- thracite were received at the receiving stations of the. coal-mining companies to-day, according to information ob- tained at the various offices. The amounts of coal thus reported are:
 Lehigh Valley, 5000 tons; Delaware and Hudson, 2.5OO tons; Lackawanna, 5000 tons; Ontario and Western, 2,O9O tons; Philadelphia and Reading. 1000 tons; Erie. 10000 tons.
 In addition to the above amount re- ceived by the Erie it was said at the offices of that company that a large quantity of the smaller sizes had been released from the receiving stations at Goldberg. N. J., and Newburgh, N. Y. This coal, it is expected, will be dump ed some time to-day, and the work of loading the barges will be begun imme- diately.
 The news of the receipts of the coal was welcome to the retail dealers. Many of them said that if the barges were loaded at once they would have coal in their yards tomorrow morning ready to sell to the public. They also said that the receipts to-day would have a tendency to reduce the price of coal considerably, and that not later than Thursday the price would be not more thatn $7,50 for prepared sizes. By the first of next week, if the coal con- tinues to come in, the price, 1t is ex-' pected, will be $6.50.
 The Erie railroad earnings for the month of September and for the three months ending September 30, the latter period covering the greater part of the strike, show marked decreases.
 For September the gross earnings show decrease of 50,15O.62 and the working expenses an increase of S9S,- 762.52. The decrease in net earnings for the month was $148, ,91314, as compared with September 1901.
 For the three months ending Septefn- Der S0 the decrease in gross earnings was $553, ,S03.09. and the increase in working expenses was S35,760,90, as compared with the same period in 1901. The decrease in net earnings was s5S9,- 563.99.

''The Dangerous Mrs. Delaney" still holds the fort and the axe at Polls theater. The Elinor sisters in George Cohan's latest and most amusing bit of dialogue ever written continue to score strongly with it this week. The sisters are a great pair of character come- diennes, and are producing a most conn ical sketch. MT. and Mrs. Mark Mur- phy, the king and queen of Irish come dy, are producing their latest and most up-to-date bit of nonsense entitled why Doogan Swore Off" Mark Murphy is indeed a great funmaker and his wife in capable assistant to give an audience good laugh. Mark sings of the famous MT. Dooley, who settled the coal strike and the pair make up a lovely act.
 A pleasing number of the long bill of- fered are Snyder and Buckley with a musical comedy they acll 'Blatz Wants Drink" These fellows have the "Florodora" ,sextet act down in fine shape and they produce it in a charm
 ing manner. Their jokes are also orig inal and strictly up to the minute.
 Others who go to make up the great treat in store for patrons of this popu- lar home of vaudeville are Keough and Ballerd, in bit of the "legot'' giving the proposal scene of the play "Ingo- mar" Mcintyre and Primrose, black face comedians; Cougar and Bacon in comedy sektch; Kelly and Reno, com edy acrobats; Reidy and Currier, a pleasing little singing sketch.

 At the Hyperion tonight and to-mor- row night Miss Viola Allen will present her new Hall Caine play, ''The Eternal City" presented for the first time at the National theater, Washington, on Mon- day evening, October 6. It promises to be the dramatic sensation of the time. The critics all say that Miss Allen has a play of tremendous force and power. The dramatic version of the play as constructed by MT. Caine for Miss AL len differs in several respects from the book and in one important particular from the Tree version, which was pre- sented in London on the night of Oc- tober 2rd.

When the verdict was announced there was a great out burst of applause and cheering in the gallery among the two hundred specta- tors and for several minutes the en- thusiasm continued and finally Judge Case said that order must be restored.
 When court adjourned a minute or two after the verdict was announced, there was a scene in the big room the like of which had rarely been witnessed there Patrolman Kelly rushed up to his counsel and after he shook their hands was surrounded by a crowd all eager to congratulate him on his vic tory.

The advance sale of seats for Mary Mannering's engagement opens at the Hyperion box office this morning at g o'clock. Needless to say there will be a crowd of eager purchasers on hand, for Miss Mannering's popularity in this city is second to that of no star on the American stage. Janice Meridith' es- tablished her firmly in the good grace of loyal playgoers; and her position was strengthened immeasurably last spring by her impressive performance of Pauline" in "The Lady of Lyons" |" Much will be expected from her in Clyde Fitch's new play "The Stubborn ness of Geraldine" MT. Fitch is very accurate in his estimate of the temper ament and artistic possibilities of the stars for whom he writes; and he is said to have given Miss Mannering quite the most congenial role she has yet had. and one that will give her abil- ities full play.
