Most Favorable Conditions Assist the
 anagement-Last Performances.
 With perfect weather and every de- sirable condition favoring the manage ment, the amusement features at Savin Rock last night were presented in a most commendable manner. The fire works display, which was the big event of the evening, was never more attrac- tive and large crowds applauded the ef- forts of the man behind the fire" The display was without doubt one Of the best that has yet been presented, and many favorable expressions of approv- al were heard on all sides.
 The music, too, was one of Director Atwaters best efforts. His success of Thursday night with Sousa's latest march, Imperial Edward" and his own arrangement of Yale songs as a waltz, both of which were encored, were play ed again last night by request, and again they received the applause they merited.
 The theater again drew a big house, and this bill which has no parallel in this hsuse, has been a big drawing card all the week. This afternoon and to-
 
 night will be the last opportunities to see all these artists on one stage, and they will all appear at both of to-day's performances.
 The Baroness won Zeiher will sing Hellman, the clever magician, will con- tinue to puzzle everybody with his. clev- CT tricks, and young Jackson, the silly coon, will be seen in his funny sketch, assisted by his mother.

Millionaire's House on Fifth Avenue to Go to the College.
 William E. Curtis of the Chicago
 Record Herald, who was at the Yale commencement, writes to his paper the following in a special article from New York city:
 Mrs. C. P. Huntington, who inherit ed not less than $2O,000,O0o from her
 husband two years ago, was assessed at $3,0O0,OOo originally, but 'swore it down to $1O0,0OO on the ground that she is resident of California, although ev-
 erybody knows that she never lived there. She inherited one of the most costly palaces in New York, and the | $1O0,O00 is supposed to represent it's fur nishings and other contents, although l the pictures that hang upon the walls are worth more than a million dollars. 1 She has only a life interest in that part | of the estate. Upon her death the | house and all it contains goes to Yale I college. The members of the Yale cor poration do not know what to do with l it, but it will be easily rented"

The federal court decided q short
time ago that the 100000 bonds re-
undated by 9 Democratic sdministra-
tion in Paduch few years since were
valid, and must be paid Also that
the city must pay the interest on them
and the interest on the interest. This
means simply that it is useless for the
city to attempt TO escape its just
debts, which debts all good citizens
desire paid. Last night it was report
ed to the council that uni ess the in.
terest and compound interest due
certain holders Of bonds were paid,
suit would be instituted. The city su-
thorities were given an opportunity
to get out without further litigation,
but in its usual webbing, Facilitating
way the administration referred" 1t,
which means that another suit to cost
the taxpayers several hundred dollars
will now be brought to settle the same
question already settled by Judge
Evans. II is futile for the city to
attempt to escape the payment Of
this compound interest, and no bluff
VIII work. The court has decided it
must be paid, and that judgment has
been accepted by the city. 1t is un-
reasonable to expect the holders of
the bonds to give up the money due
them as compound interest. They are
entitled to it, and good business men
would take a common-sense view of
it and spare the city any more law
suits.

TWO NEW WITNESSES
Woman Declares She Saw Poison
Package Mailed,
Says Man Had Red Beard, as Witness
to Bottle Holder Also Declares.

New York, Nov. 1.-Two persons
have come forward to aid Roland Mo.
lineux. II their stories carry they
may testify in his behalf.
One is the wife of Brooklyn po-
liceman. She has made affidavit that
she was at a stamp window in the
general postofice and saw the famous
Cornish package in the hands of a
man next in limo in front of her.
She said this man had it weighed
and purchased stamps. In his hand
ling the box the address was plainly
visible TO her. He was not Molineux,
she said.
Three days after the death Of Mrs
Adams was known and the Cornish
package was being discussed the wo-
man is alleged to have told her hus-
band OF what she saw.
He laughed at her, but, to prove
her story. she sent west for the pack
age she mailed when at the postoffice
and the postmark thereon was within
few minutes Of the time marked on
the Cornish package.
Not only was the man who mailed
the Cornish package, she says, not
Molineux, but she has pointed out an
other member Of the late Knioker-
booker Athletic club Is the man who
mailed it,
She went to Molineux's lawyers and
made oath to these facts nearly four
years ago. so the story goes. Those
lawyers refuse TO discuss the affidavit,
taking particular care not to deny IT.
The ether witness in waiting Is a
Newark man who swesrs that, while
acting as q private detective in . drug
store he sold to man with red beard
Van Dyke cut, bottle Of bromo seltzer,
and, on the next day, saw this same
man come from the department store
where Miss Miller sold a silver bot.
tie holder to man Of similar de.
soription.
II Is not known whether either will
te permitted TO testify,a as the effect Of
belAted evidence might not be all that
is desired.
