tremendous opportunities. At the conclu-
sion of her weeks stay in Washington she
returns to New York. where the play will
nave an extended run, and then be moved
by Mr.. Frohman, In its entirety, to London.
No American cities except Washington and
New York VIII have the chance to see this

The story of the play is of Spain during
the early part of the sixteenth century
The Moors have been driven into Africa.
but fair young Moorish widow, Zoraya
by name, the daughter of a wise and learn
ed physician, has remained behind. She
has inherited her fathers wisdom and
skill. and is naturally soon accused of
witchcraft by the Inqusition. which then
held Spain in its terrible grasp.
Zoraya, this young Moorish widow, who
has effected many cures through her medi-
cal knowledge and skill falls in love with
Don Enrique. the newly married husband
of Joanna, daughter of the governor She Is
brought before the Inquisition and con-
demned to the stake. and would have been
prematurely burned but for the fact that
Joanna has fallen into sort of cataleptic
sleep, from which Zoraya with her mag
netic powers alone can awaken her. 1t is
on this condition that she is promised lib
erty. She does, in fact, but the pardon Is
set at naught by bowling mob which sur
rounds the prison of the Inquisition. and
Zoraya'S life is ended in the arms of her
lover, which she prefers to being torn

and in costume, has been lavishly put on

are sometimes even foolish enough
to believe that the people of New
ark and the surrounding country
are proud of The Journal.
But, be that as it may, we are
proud of the people of Newark and
independence county-proud of
the fact that we live among them
and that we are able to number
them as our friends. A nobler
people never inhabited the globe.
As time goes by and we get on
speaking terms with our big press
we hope to make improvements In
the paper from time to time, and
thus show our appreciation of the
liberal patronage we have received.
We hope, also, to materially in
crease the circulation of The
Journal during the next few
months, and if you have a friend
who is not taking the paper, kind
ly insist upon him or her becom-
ing subscriber at once. You
will thereby help us to make The
Journal a better paper, and in
crease its usefulness.
But, until we become more fam
liar with our new press, do not
expect too much of US. 1t may
take some time to get the press
work perfect, and if your paper,
for week or two, comes to you a
little badly printed, just blame
we'll, just blame the editor.

OUR NEW PRESS.

The Journal has just received a
big cylinder press, which will be
set up today and put in readiness
for printing off the future editions
of The Journal.
This is a distinction that but few

er attained, as it is quite a jump
from the slow and laborious old
Washington, which will print on
ly $50 single sheets the size of two
pages of The Journal, to real
cylinder press which can be run
by power and print four pages of
six column paper at the rate of
1000 an hour.
The Journal is justly proud of
the success it has attained, and we

night, at which Bryan was the
principal speaker. He made saw
age attack on the "re-organizers"

The ones you promised long ago;
Gibson makes them good and cheap,
Good to give away, or good to keep.
Made in dull or made in glace,
Your whole form, or just your face;
Groups of families, one and all,
Make them standing, low or tall.
If you want them in crayon,
You can get them by you paying,
Less than you have ever known
AGENTS prices make us groan.
My medallions, they are fine;
Make them just for ninety-nine;
Frames and buttons you can get
Sold them last year-sell them yet.
