my WIFE'S FAMILY"

There is something in Stephens &
Linton's production of MY. Wife's
Family" a musical comedy in three
acts, which commends itself strongly
to amusement lovers. 1t is one of the
best musical comedies on the road.
my Wife's Family" is just a Jolly
bit Of tomfoolery that is never loud,
never vulgar, always refined and never
fails to send away a we'll satisfied
audience at the close of the perform
ance. There are three hours of music,
song and drollery, with never a min
ute that is slow or dull; in other
words, it is one round of jollity from
the rise to the fall of the curtain.
The comedians are exceedingly funny,
the ladies are decidedly pretty the
songs have points and the music is
catchy. Striking and effective stage
costumes, stage pictures that please
the eye and snatches of wit that
make you laugh in spite of yourself.
The company is headed by the clev-
er comedians, Hal Stephens and Harry
Linton, and includes the following
well known people; Annita Lawrence,
Isabel Allan, Langtry Ashton, Thom-
as Lee and ten others, all of the orig
inal View York cast. The Grand, Sat

DR.. PARKAURST
Is Again After Police De-
partment Of New
York City,
He WRITES A LETTER

New York, Jan. 3.--With the as.
soinbling at Albany today of the New
York legislature came the circulation
in this city of a report, apparently
reasonably well founded, that there
would be searching investigation of
this police department of this city by
a legislative committee. Recent de.
velopments indicating that there was
an absolute laxity of discipline mong
the rank and file of the department
have set some of the leaders of the
reform element to thinking and it is
asserted that an organized effort is
TO be made to purify the department
by riddingit of uniformed thugs" and
men who are using their official posi-
tion to oppress certain classes of citi.
Zsns."
Following this report it became
known that Dr. Parkhurst, the Pres
byterian divine who has from time
to time issued statements regarding
vice in thh city, has written a let
ter to Police Commissioner McAdoo
in his capacity as president of the So,
ciety for the Prevention of Crime, in
which he calls attention to "intoler.
able police conditions"
DR.. Parkhurst scathingly denounces
the entire police department from
Deputy Commissioner McAvoy down
declares that no decent man or won,
an can live in certain precincts; that
gambling goes on without any at
tempt being made to check it; de.
clares that crime is rampant; and
winds up with the assertion that mot
only is the lid on, but it is out of
sight"
The letter is also signed by the ex.
ecutive committee of the Parkhurst
society.
:, When Commissioner McAdoo was
asked tonight what he had to say
about the letter he intimated that il
was uncalled for and the charges con.
tanned therein unfounded. When
pressed to make the matter public
he became angry and declared that he
would say nothing about it, and If
its contents were desired the report.
ers would have to get them from Mr.
,Parkhurst. At the home of DR., Park.
| hurst it was stated that if the letter
was to be made public it should come
from the police commissioner.

name unknown.
Robert Holland, of Pittsburg, and
Joseph Moore, of Oakland, Pa, were
picked up by rescuing parties and are
now in the city hospital. They are
horribly injured and can give no de-
tails of the accident. An engineer and
young son is said to have been kill.
cd and one woman who was aboard,
name unknown is horribly injured.
The steamer burned for an hour and
the smouldering hull settled down just
above the city wharfboat.
The victims recovered from the dis
aster were taken to different hospitals
and private houses and are in such a
condition that nothing of an intelli-
gent nature regarding the occurrence
can be had from them.
Captain Woodruff was taken across
the river by some boys who picked
him up and Is now in private house
at Bradreck. The steamer Victor was
so far ahead of the Defender that her
crew knew nothing of the disaster.
The steamer Chevalier, lying at the
local wharf where the explosion oc-
Cured, rendered valuable assistance.
Thousands of people soon lined the
banks and viewed the terrible spec
tacle. An hour after the explosion
one man was found on the edge of
the river near Cluster of Lilies. He
was of the ill-fated crew and was so
horribly injured that he could not
speak.

Many Killed and Several Horribly Injured --Survv-

the Accident.

the most horrible disasters in the his

Cincinnati where thsy had just de-
lfvered large fleets of coal, they be-
this rise when the Defenders boilers
blew up just above the local wharf.
The report was heard for miles. In
very few minutes the big steamer
was mass of flames, the fire speading
: 10 the 20 barges in her tow.
The report awakened the inhabi-
tants of the city and soon every avail
able craft was en- route the the scene
TO aid in rescue. The number of dead
at this hour Is not known, but out of
crew of about 3S only ten have been
accounted for and they are horribly
burned.
The boat was in charge of Captain
James Woodruff of Pittsburg, and lie
was hurled into the river by the ex-
plosion but was later picked up by a
. rescuing party and taken to the Ohio
shore. His injuries are not seriors.
The only dead bodies yet identified
are those of Thomas Duffy of Pitts
burg, fireman from Coraopolis, Pa,
