Last Attraction of the Season.

Fun and frolic will be in plenty at
the Opera House when "Peck's Bad
Boy' will be presented. This all the
time favorite farcial comedy is like
good wine and improves with age. The
adding on new pranks, finding new
jokes and producing more laughter
seems to be the only cause of life to
the players OF the splendid company
for this season may be mentioned
Joseph Madison, who has been re-
engaged to play the title role, and he
is expected to outdo last years popu-
larity, which is saving a great deal,
while for the part of the good-natured
Groceryman, Fred Wenzel, the emil
nent German Comedian, has returned
to the fold. Mr.. Wenzel, instead of
being an adept in mixing sugar with
sand, is very apt in making an audi.
ence laugh. He certainly excels any
artistic in his line.
Manager Heath has, in addition, a
galaxy of specially artists that includes
masters In every line.
Miss Lille May White, who is con-
sidered to be one OF the handsomest
women on the stage, has an abundance
of new songs and a most fastidious
wardrobe, besides being the lucky pos
SCISSOR of u fine soprano voice. The
Madison Brothers are two of the
cleverest boxers and bag punchers of
their age in the country and this is an
act that should not be missed by any
lover of the manly art.
There is not dull moment from the
time the curtain rises until it falls, in
Peck's Bad Boy. Wednesday, March
Goth Prices 25, 80, and so cents. Re-
served seats at Lloyd's.

tended the burning ofthe mortgages at
the M. E Church last evening. A de-
lightful program was prepared. After

Checks Held Back.

About 125 railroad men, employed
in the shops at Remove and on
the railroad, failed to get their
checks last pay day, the same having
been garnisheed by the West Vir-
ginia collecting agency. The amount
of the claims amount to several thou
sand dollars. Representatives of this
agency have visited Emporium and it
is feared the next "hold up'' will take
place at Emporium and intermediate
points.

A Plea For India,

The following plea comes to us from
Miss Emily g. Wheeler, Secretary of
the National Armenian Relief Com
mittee, who, at the request of the
former Committee of One Hundred for
India Famine Relief, has consented to
help in caring for India orphans as
we'll as for those in Turkey:
Some years ago the good people of
America rescued from death quite
large number of little orphans in tar
away India, but in the hurry of our
Western life many Of these little ones
whom we then rescued from death
have been almost forgotten and are in
danger of being forced into something
even worse than death, and especially
is this true of the girls
Hence we feel justified in appealing
once more to the people of America to
help these little ones. The grown up
population of India, so many of whom
needed help in famine time, are now
able to care for themselves, but the
little ones still need our help. First of
all, they need something to eat; second
they need CHEEKY home; and, third,
we wish to waken in them Love of
work, which will make them blessing
to their native land, where manual
labor is often looked upon with su.
preme contempt.
All it costs for each child is six cents
a day, or S20.00 year, and remember
ing that good many citizens of Cam
eron county were interested in this
orphan cause some years ago, we feel
sure that some of you will be glad to
help once more. We do not ask large
gift; but we do ask for one which will
! express real love for the cause, for
these are the ones which bring the
greatest blessing to giver and receiver.
Yours very truly,
| EMILY Q. WHEELER, Secretary.

me that there is money and money to
to spare, in the flower business; there

besides myself, engage in the business
at once. I expect to retire from the
prsfits of the business in very short
time. Sleepy merchants ofEmporium,
don't let me do it, but about dozen OF
you engage in the business at once"

THE GREATEST RAILROAD.
The Rev. DIR. James NJ. Buckley, Editor Of the
New York Christian Advocate on the
Penna. Rail Road.

The effects of the two great storms Of
the past two weeks were almost unpar-
alleled east of the Ohio River. On
Monday, the Sd instant, we spent some
time going from Office to office to find
a road that would promise to deliver
us in Chicago not more than ten hours
behind schedule time. The New York
Central and the Delaware, Laclza-
wanna and Western could promise
nothing, nothing, and several others
were in the same helpless condition,
most of them not even expecting to
send out a through train. This had
been the state since Friday. The Penn
sylvania, however, responded that it
would not be three hours late, if at
all. Though obliged to make detour
in leaving Harrisburg, which on one
side was largely under water, we were
in Chicago less than two hours late.
The Pennsylvania system now trans
cends every other in the world. Pro-
badly one reason is that there is not a
man in an important place in the man
agement who has not worked his way
up from the bottom.

r1et Death at Cross Fork.

James Carson, a we'll known mill
man of Austin, died Thursday morning
about seven O'Clock as the result of an
accident or foul play, the circumstan-
ces of which is veiled in mystery. On
Monday evening after quitting work
he left his boarding house and went to
town. He did not return that night
and i'll the morning he was found at
the bottom of flight of stairs leading
to his boarding house which is located
on the hill. He was unconscious when
found and the mud into which he had
fallen was frozen around his body. Mr..
Carson did not regain consciousness
until death ensued Thursday morning.
He was for number of years head
sawyer in the Goodyear mills at Aus
tin, where his wife and three children,
who survive him still reside. The re-
mains were taken to Austin, Thursday
The funeral, under the auspices of the
Masonic lodge occurred at Austin at

CALIFORNIA; TOURIST GAINS.

What comes of an active and per-
a!stent scheme of advertising for To-
calty which has attractions for win
ter tourists, may be seen in the news
columns Of the San Francisco press. A
recent issue Of the Chronicle prints this
interesting statement:
No sucn rush was ever known before
in the history of transcOntlnental traf-
fC. Thirty thousand passengers in two
uonths on the two railroads is the rec
ord made during September and Octo-
Der, the result of the low colonist rate.
OF this number fully 5000, according
to the claims of passenger agents. have
become permanent residents OF can
fornia. and many more are viewing the
different sections of the State with an
eye to the selection of homes.
II. f. Montague, travelling passenger
agent for the Southern Pacific, declares
that "A notable feature of these COLO
mist excursion rates is the large num-
Der Of heads of families who are in
Guided IN the travellers parties.
Il have met thirty or forty heads of
families in the last few days" said
Montague, who told me that they had
sold their farms or village homes, as
the case might be, and are coming here
to stay. Most Of them were from Iowa
Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri; pros
porous farmers and well-to-do mer-
chants who have tired of the rigorous
climate in their states. and seeing bet
ter opportunities here have decided tc
remain"
Thirty thousand passengers in two
months augurs u total influx for the
season Of more than 100000 people
Last year 20, 200 came in. The enormous
financial advantage this is to Cali
fornia may be seen by little figuring
1t may be assumed, as minimum
total, that the per capita outlay within
the state lines will be 5000. making th'
30. 600 yield SIX MILLIONS of DOL

this rate, be Twenty Millions, allowini
