Of course. were the attendance small, it would not be possible to provide such shows at the prices charged; it is the fact that the audiences are almost gen erally capacity-testing that allows any thing of profit to come to the manage nrent. Nobody, perhaps, maryels more at the quality of these shows than drummers and others who occasionally see vaudeville shows in other cities, in cl11ding the large ones; these are able to make comparisons which are almost invariably Overwhelming in their pref erence for the local ones.

Entire System Held Up by Broken
 Water Main.
 NEW YORK, Dec 15. entire New York subway system was shut down because of a break in thirty six inch water main at Eighty sixth street and Broadway, in front of Brit ton hall, the big new twelve story ho- tel that extends from Eighty fifth street to Eighty sixth street.
 Superintendent Hedley as soon as all traffic was stopped ordered every sta tion agent to refund passengers their money and not to sell any more tickets.
 Only that part of the subway be- tween the city hall and Seventy second street was operated for many hours.
 The flow of water that rushed into the subway tracks and cellars of the houses along the east side of Broad way down to seventyeninth street caused immense damage
 The worst sufferers by the flood were the 500 guests Of Brttton hall, and the desk clerk was kept busy ex- plaining that not only was there no heat, but no electric, lights no. water and no breakfast. Finally ti1e manage ment sent out for 2,O00 rolls, milk and coffee, which were served to the guests.
