PLEASING Entertainers
First of the Series in the Methodist Church
Greatly Enjoyed.

The entertainment at the NJ. E.
church, last night, under the auspices
of the Epworth League, was fine and
should have been well ~patronized, but
as it was, there was a fairly good
sized crowd instead of a crush, as the
K. of P. fair caused a division of the
patronage. 1t is a great pity that
some arrangement could not have been
made, so that the two would not have
been held on the same night. Outside
talent costs money and 40 small sum
and the church ought to have been
crowded as the artists were engaged
with the idea of giving the people a
rare treat for a small sum of money.
Those who did not attend the enter
tainment, cannot realize what they
missed, for the Rotations, songs and
whistling solos by Fosters entertain
ers were A 1 and greatly enjoyed by
those present. AS this is only a be-
ginning of a series of entertainments
which are to be given the coming
winter, there is a chance for a full
house for the remaining Ones.

THE ROYAL VISIT.
Sentiments of Friendship and Amity
by King and President.

Sentiments of Friendship and Anity
by King and President.
PARIS, Oct. 15.-The banquet at the
Elysee palace given by President Lou
bet in honor of the royal visitors, Vie
tor Emmanuel and Queen Helena, was
an occasion for toasts in which host
and guest alike expressed their pleas
ure at the rapproachement between
the two nations and dwelt on the hap
py effect that the Franco-ltalian friend
ship would have on the relations of
the European powers generally.
President Loubet rose and, address
ing King Victor Emmanuel, said:
"Sire, France realizes the significance
of your majesty's visit to the president
of this republic, in which it sees a
striking demonstration of the close
agreement which, responding equally
to the sentiments and interests of the
Italian and French peoples, has been
established between their governments.
1t is assured that the two countries
~henceforth can pursue their national
tasks with reciprocal confidence and
good will.
n France halls your majesty's arrival
with sincere joy, which joy is doubled
by the gracious presence of your queen.
With all my heart l raise my glass in
the name of France.
King Victor Emmanuel in reply to
this toast thanked the French presi-
dent and expressed his delight at the
hearty welcome that he and Queen
Helena had received, adding that he
saw therein more than a mere demon
stration of the traditional p%oliteness
of the French. His majesty then con-
tinued:
France rightly considers my pres
ence in Paris the natural result of that
work of rapprochement happily ac-
complished between the two countries.
Italy's interests make her ardently de-
sire the conservation of peace. Her
position in Europe enables her to con-
tribute by her attitude to the realiza-
ton of this eminently civilizing result,
toward which my highest and warmest
aspirations and the constant efforts of
my government are directed.

BARN is DESTROYED
AND HORSE BURNED.
Disastrous Fire Occurred About
1880 O'clock Last Night-Fire-
mems Good Work.

About 10. 30 last night an alarm was
sent out from box 36 and the firemen
responded very promptly. The fire
was in a barn used by Edward O'Con-
nor, the proprietor of 1.-THE Gem"
hotel on Broadway, who had a horse
locked inside. How the fire started,
is not known, but is believed to have
been set on fire by someone, accord
ing to the opinion of the firemen.
In close proximity, so that the two
touched each other, where the stables
belonging to the Rippowam hotel,
containing eight horses and complete
ly surrounded by wagon sheds, houses,
icehouse and another barn. Someone
opened the R1ppowam barn and a grey
horse dashed out into the crowd and
along the tracks of the Pennsylvania
railroad, where it was caught by Cap
tain Luke Hoagland and taken back
to the barn from which it had escap-
ed. Captain Hoagland has several bad
cuts on his right hand and said he got
them when stopping the horse and
thought perhaps the horse had bitten
him as he grabbed the animal by the
nose. The horse belonging to Mr..
O'Connor was burned to death before
the door could be opened. When it
was finally opened the animal fell
with his head close to the door, as if
he were trying to escape.
Too much credit cannot be given
the firemen for their prompt work in
extinguishing the flames, which they
had under control in fifteen minutes
from the time the alarm was sounded,
and in saving the surrounding build
ings, as the Rippowam stables had
caught fire also and had that not been
extinguished at once, it would very
quickly have spread to the other build
ings. The loft of O'Connor's barn
was packed full of hay. Only a shell
remains. A general alarm having
been given a big crowd soon gathered
from the X. of P. Hall and every
direction.
