DeWoIf Hopper In Wang.

When the management of the
Grand Opera House gave out the in
formation some time ago that it was
negotiating for DeWolf Hopper in
Wang" a great many people ex-
pressed themselves that they thought
that it would be impossible to get
such an attraction in town the size
OF F'airmont. The management, how
ever, thought otherwise, and after a
good deal of correspondence with the
Messrs. Schubert, his managers, this
morning received the information
that by cancelling another city they
would be able to give us Hopper on a
guarantee of $4,000 and percent
age of the receipts above that amount.
The proposition was at once accepted
and contracts executed. # s. n

A Journey Home.

Chief Smith returned Saturday
from New York City where he
spent three weeks with his
parents from whom he had been
parted for more than twenty
years. For several years he
has endeavored to find some trace
of his people, but every seeming
clew proving value1ess, he had
given up all hope of ever join
ing the brothers, sisters and
parents from whom he had part
ed when mere child.
Byron Harlan, during his
recent visit to this city, made
the acquaintance of Chief Smith,
and learned something of his
history, was impressed with the
idea that he possessed informa-
t1on that would lead to the re-
union of the long-separated
friends.
A correspondence followed and
in a short time Smith left for
New York where he had located
his parents. There, within a
radius of fifty miles he found
father, mother, five sisters and
two brothers, with whom he
spent nearly month, and then
returned again to assume the
duties of Chief of Police of this
city.

dresses on behalf Of the workers Of
the Fall River district were delivered.
Delegate Mrs. Mary Kenney O'Suli-
van, Of the National Women's Trade
Union League, depicted the scenes
there since the strike began, She
characterized the conditions existent
. as more terrible than those attendant
on the anthracite coal strike. One
meal a day consisting Of soup and two
slices Of bread was, she alleged, the
fare Of 1,400 women and children, To
safeguard the virtue Of these unfor-
tunate women and protect the health
and perhaps the lives Of the children

given until the strike was won.
