THEATRICAL.

Next Thursday evening marks the an
nual appearance of John w. Vogel's
Big Minstrels at the Grand opera
house. This satiating medley of nfec-
tious mirth, delightful music and songs,
so splendldIy exploited during the past
three years, is well remembered by our
theatre-goers, and it returns with sew
eral new faces in the list of principals
and the promise that the standard es-
tabished shall be maintained, and that
in most respects is will surpass former
presentations Arthur Rigby, who has
one of the principal ends, is one Of the
most amusing ndividualtes essaying
monologue, while his compagnon de voy
age, Chas Gano, in a musical sense and
in risible sort of the way is fully up to
the mark. The vocal contingent con-
taius a surplusage of a beautiful voices,
if such a thing was possible, while the
olo is made up of such feature acts as
the O'Brien troupe of acrobats; Rou-
lette, pantomimlc clown juggIers;
Leighton and leighton, originators and
the only producers of "RAgine" new
and delightful terpsicorean novelty;
Mccoy and Gano, harmonic instrument
talists' and Don Gordon, trick cycle
adept.
Miss Katie Emmett, who is the billed

on the American stage to-day. She can
show contracts wherein such people as
Lillian Lawrence, Julia Arthur and the
late Geo. w. Thompson were engaged
to play in Miss Emmett's production of
WAITS OF New York" The story is u
pleasing little tale which furnishes with
its specialties several hours OF a good
entertainment 1t deals with the life of
"Newsie" Willie Rufus, played by Miss
Emmett.
Prominent among the realistic scenery
are the fire scene, where Miss Emmett

Scranton, Pa, Oct 30.-The anthra.
cite coal strike commissioners, who
will make an inspection OF the mines
and the homes CT the mine workers,
arrived here last night over the Cen
trail Railroad of New Jersey. Com
missioner I. H. watkins, whose home
is in this city, came here early in
the day and arranged some Of the
details for the first days tour Of the
upper region. The commission

myn, where the party occupy IA
rooms.

ager Thorne, Of the Temple Iron

and about the city of Scranton and
viewing the mining suburbs. Satur-
day the commission will go to Wilkes

vestigations.
Mr.. Watkins, in an interview yes
terday, said, in part, that the COM

testimony until after tour Of the
region has been completed. 1t is pos
sible, though, that session will take
place Monday, in Wilkesbarre, to re
ceive the statement to be presented
by President Mitchell, of the mine
workers, to which the operators have
agreed to make answer within three
days. It is almost certainty that
no testimony will be taken in this
city this week.

TO THANK GOD.
PRESIDENT NAMES NOV. 27, AS
THANKSGIVING DAY.
Points Out the Many Blessings For
Which We Should Thank
the Lord.

Washington, Oct. 30.-President
Roosevelt yesterday issued his an
nual Thanksgiving proclamation as
follows:
by the President of the United
States of America, Proclamation:
According to the yearly custom Of
our people it falls upon the president
at this season to appoint a day Of
festival and thanksgiving to God.
over century and a quarter has
passed since tnis country took its
place among the nations OF the earth
and during that time we have had on
the whole more to be thankful for
than has fallen to the lot CT any other
people. Generation after generation
has grown to manhood and passed
away. Each mas had TO bear it's pc
culiar burdens, each to face its spe-
cial crisis and each has known years
of grim trial, when the country was
menaced By malice, domestic Or for
eign levy, when the hand Of the Lord
was heavy upon it in drouth or food
or pestilence, when in bodily distress
and anguish OF soul it paid the pen
atty of folly and a forward heart
Nevertheless. decade by decade,
we have struggled onward and up
ward; we now abundantly enjoy ma
terial well being, and under the IA
vor Of the Most High, we are striv-
ing earnestly to achieve moral and
spiritual uplifting. The year that has
just closed has Deen one Of peace and
oyerfowing plenty. Rarely has any
people enjoyed greater prosperity
than We are now enjoying. For this
we render heartfelt and solemn
thanks to the Giver OF Good: and we
seek 10 praise Him, not by words
only. but by deeds by the way in
which We do cur duty to ourselves

Cleveland Street Railway Men Say
There's Mere Than Appears oa Sur
face In Proposed Eikins-vIidener
and Pomeroy-Maneelbaum Combine

Cleveland. Oct 30-According to
Cleveland street railroad men, there
is more significance in the proposed
consolidation OF the Elkins-Widener
and the Pomeroy-M andelbaum syndi.
Gates than has appeared on the sur
face of the dispatches from Cincin-
natl.
Representatives Of Cincinnati and
Boston bond houses were in this city
yesterday and were of the opinion
that the consolidation would result
in the formation OF the strongest
electric railway syndicate in the
United States. They declared that
the plan was viewed with favor by
eastern bond houses and that geneF-
Gus financial support would be given
the Ohio syndicate.
1t is claimed mat the proposed syn
dictate will control the longest chain
of electric railways in the world, COW
ering more than 800 miles.
E. T. Pomeroy, Of this city, said
yesterday that it was a little early
yet to talk about consolidation
There is no question, however"
he added, as to what will ultimately
happen. The various railways owned
or controlled by the two syndicates
will be embraced in one big electric
railroad"

and simple, with the discussion of the
question OF the correctness Of the at
titude Of our naval officers on the
isthmus. 1t is expected that the de-
lay will not be long. for even if the
Colombian answer is not satisfactory
the United States government will
still be bound by the terms of the
Spooner act to proceed towards the
construction Of an isthmus canal.
Might Change to Nicaragua Route.
There are two ways open. even in
case CT an adverse attitude on the
part Of Colombia, namely, either the
United States government to proceed
without delay TO complete the treat
les with Nicaragua and Costa RIGA
necessary for the construction of a
canal in these countries. or land this
latter course would be adopted with
reluctancel the government might
purchase outright the franchise of
the French Panama Canal company
and go On resolutely with the con
struction OF the Panama canal, TAX
ing the ground that it would have q
right to improve its own property
without reference to any other gov
ernment, and taking no further no
tice of Colombia.

Washington, Oct 30.-The status

awaiting a decision of the Colombian
government as to whether Minister
Concha shall proceed under his orig
inal instructions to present 70 the
state department the Colombian re-
Spouse to the departments proposal
for treaty. When the response ar
rived in Washington, two days ago,
the minister promptly notified the
state department Of the fact, but he
added to his notice the statement
that in view of recent developments
(meaning events that had happened
on the isthmus since the note started
from Bogota, Sept. 16), he had re-
garded it as his duty to withhold it
until he heard further from his gov

Annoying to United States.
AS the state department had in
some way come to know that the
Colombian response would, if sub
mitted, go far towards meeting the
desires of this government in the
matter of canal treaty, this delay
was very annoying.
A cablegram was sent to United

Christian Science is proximately what its adherents claim for 1t, it's merits should command thoughtful. candid in- yestigation. do not invite controversy or denominational wrangling. but simply an honest, patient seeking after truth with the utmost freedom of thought and expression, and yet with the fullest rec ognition of the unchallenged right of others to think and express their thought. I recognize the fact that my cause is confronted by sectarian prejudice and by the antagonism of all the schools of ma terial medicine; and it is to those preju- diced ones I especially address myself, fully recognizing the fact that where pre- Judgment Is not, truth heaven-pano- piled will meet and satisfy honest inves- tigation.
 J"The general impression of the people who never have investigated Christian Science is that it's sole purpose is physical cure, that it is something that pertains solely to bodily welfare, while the truth is that physical healing Is but an inci- dent of Christian Science.
 q believe, and I am persuaded, that the religion of Jesus Christ is worth more to men than everything else that has been or can be crowded into this uni verse. and whatever impinges upon that. whatever lessens the sweetness and song of love of that will meet with my opposi- ton, and in all conscience should meet with yours, and on the other hands am sure that if Christian Science is the mes- sage Jesus brought to earth, it will re- ceive your cordial indorsement and active effort to give it to the world.
 
 "It may strike you as a little strange and yet it is strangely true that one of the objections urged against Christian Science is that it is the product of wo- man. It would probably be safe to say to any audience that this objection evident ly had its origin with some one in some wild and jagged flights of fancy, who thought himself a man; but to you, and to every gentle, thoughtful man, 1t is evident that if Christian Science is the product of a woman, that fact inevitably carries with it two conclusions; one that it is absolutely honest and the other that 1t is absolutely pure. Every gentle, thoughtful man knows that from the worlds morning until its high noon of today, woman has been the holy, patient, faithful guardian of its spiritual thought; knows gratefully, lovingly knows. that for 2,000 years, woman, not man, but wo- man, has kept the religion of Jesus Christ on this earth, ands she will keep 1t there until the kingdoms of this world become the kingdom of our God, and His Christ. All of doctrine, philosophy and practice of Christian Science is given to the world in Mrs. Eddy's book, en- titled Science and Health. with Key to the Scriptures" and may be easily known and understood by every man who has the energy to read. and the ability to think"

JUDGE EwINa's LECTuR RE.
He Spoke on Christian Science at
 Montgomery Theatre.

He oQOkG Oh SlAA ASSAAAA
 Montgomery Theatre.
 The Montgomery Theatre was nlleo Sunday afternoon. with those who were anxious to hear the "other side" on the question relating to Christian Science, and it's teachings.
 The lecture was given by First Church of Christ Scientist, who hold services at 16 1-2 Perry Street, and they consider their efforts rewarded. by the large ana cultured audience and the close attention the lecturer, Hon. William G. Ewing received from them.
 Judge Ewing is a member of the Board of Lectureship of the Mother Church In Boston; and had for his subject
 Christian Science; Physician and Re- desmer." Judge Thomas c. Jones in- troduced the speaker in the following words:
 I,adies and Gentlemen-One of the best tests of the civilization to say noth- ing of the religion of people, is their attitude to those who differ honestly from them as to any old or received creed of human conduct
 ''Disagreeing widely, as l and perhaps many others of the audience do, from the beliefs of the speaker of the evening, if we correctly understand them, there IS vet a common bond which unltes this audfence-that of respect and esteem TOT those who with unselflsh purposes con secrate themselves to beliefs and works which have for their motives the upliit- ing of mankind, however much their ad- vocacy may assail cherished opinions and beliefs of our own.
 '.Discussion is the mother Of just con clusions. The moral courage of those who unfold and uphold the faith of Christian Science which, at times. brings upon it's adherents so much of intolerance sneers and ridieule, and separates them so widely from the beliefs of the masses of the people among whom they live has a value to the community which reaches out far beyond the occasion which calls it forth.
 ''We have with us this evening dis tinguished man, sprung from the loins of the South and allied to it by ties of birth and association. He is a worthy m, mber of great family which has often illustrated all that is good in American citizenship in peace and war and civic struggles, and who. himself has adorned the jurisprudence of our common country. I have the pleasure of introducing to you Judge Ewing of Chicago"
 Extracts from this lecture will give the public some idea of the subject:
 'It seems reasonable to say that If .
