E. G. YEfTER ESQ.
ELECTED MAYOR.
Defeated Boyd F. Maize Esq.
in a Lively Contest by a
Vote of GAS to $40.
Magee Elected To Council.

Clyde Charles Yetter Esq, the
Republican nominee for President
Of the Town Council, defeated Boyd
F.Maize Esq, Democrat, in lively
contest by vote of 643 to $40.
Both candidates conducted an ener-
getic campaign, and the result was
in doubt until the very last ward
was heard from.
Probably the most interesting
contest was that of School Director
between Jas. c. Brown. republican,
Jas. H. Mercer, democrat, and H.
G. Supplee who was nominated by
the Citizens. Mr.. Mercer came in
for the greatest share of popular
approval, with Mr.. Brown secoud.
Mr.. Supplee made a very strong
bid for the place, considering the
fact that his name did not appear
on the ballot, the Court having de-
clared the Citizens ticket null and
void. The forgetfulness of some of
his friends is another factor which
it is claimed worked against him.
On many instances, according to
the election boards, his name was
written, but nothing else. The
neglect to write the figure rob-
bed him of vote in each case.
The race for Councilmanic hon
ors furnished another animated
contest. James Magee and Chas.

Jacques
VAUDEVILLE.

"The Girl from Coney Island" is the headline attraction at the Jacques this week. Her voice is'a freak of the most amazing type, running as it does with perfect ease from the profundity of a basso to the phenomenally high notes rof grand opera soprano. The songs she sings had to be especially arranged for her phenomenal range and her rem dition of them is remarkable in the ex- treme. The other numbers on the card are almost all contributed by players who are already favorably known here. Babes in the Jungle" In which that very popular team, Green and Werner, appear, is the big special feature of the entertainment. The Magnami fam fly of musical barbers need no intro duction to the patrons of the theater as the members of 1t made splendid impression with their work here last season.

LEWIS MORRISON.

Lewis Morrison himself will appear at Polls Wednesday evening with his novel, highly effective and superb new production of Faust" Long and cost ly experiments for producing flash of lightning in miniature have at last proved successful. The mimic cleo tric discharges from murky clouds add considerably to the wild sublimity of the tumultuous scene on the summit of the Brocken. Aside from the elaborate staging of Faust" the drama is rem dered in the highest degree interesting by MT Morrison's graphic representa- tion of Mephisto. 4 musical novelty has been perfected for heightening the effecs of the church scene. A chime of rich toned bells ring out full and clear while the worshippers assemble. As the lingering echoes of the bells die softly away the voices of singers announce the opening of services with in the sacred edifce. Appropriate or chestral music forms a fitting accom- paniment to several of the scenes. The musical selections given with the ac- ton of the play comprise gems from Gounod's score of Faust and selec- tions from the compositions of Rossini and Meyerbeer and other great con- posers. Mr Morrison is supported by an excellent company. Prices are S1, 70, 50, 8 and 9 cents.

THE LIGHTHOUSE BY THE SEA.

Lighthouse by the Sea- which is claimed to be an unusually strong, ex- citing and we'll knit melodrama, will be presented at Polls Friday and Sat urday evenings and Saturday after noon. The play is full of action, with situations and climaxes that follow in rapid succession, but do not jostle each other; nor are logic and intelligibillty ever sacrificed to rapidity of move ment. There is said to be no lack of scenic sensationalism, but even the biggest sensation, the escape from the rocks while at the mercy of the storm. of what is claimed to be the mast real looking ship ever seen in melodrama. Illustrates and helps the dramatic eli max. The comedy is genuine, and being relevant to the action, and essen tial to the development of the plot, serves a useful dramatic purpose. Messrs Vane and Sullivan, the man. agers of the produc tion, are said to have spared no expense in staging the play, the scenic investiture being very elaborGte, while the members of the company are people who are specially suited 10 the characters they portray. Prices are 9, B and 50 cents; mat intee 25 cents. Sale opens Thursday.

IRISH MEDAL WINNERS
The Ladies Choir of Dublin Carried
 on Golden Trophy.

The Feis CeOil, or Irish national mu- sical festival, which convenes annually in Dublin, has done wonders toward stimulating a study of musical art in Ireland. Its prizes, consisting usually of gold, silver and bronze medals, are much coveted by the young musicians of the Emerald Isle and strenuous eff forts are made to capture them. The standard is now placed very high, so that the acceptance of a young artist to compete for prize is itself stamp of approval by competent judges on the musician's ability. To win prize, therefore, is real triumph, as Ire land at the present time is filled with clever musical geniuses, who have all the ardent Celtic temperament, as well as artistic training, to support them in the battle for supremacy.
 One of the reasons for the high standing of the Irish ladies' choir of Dublin is the fact of its having won two gold and one silver medal at the Feis Cecil. At a recent contest held at the Dublin Fels ceoil the Irish la dies choir was awarded the first prize. the gold medal for excellence in choral singing. Choruses from Cork, Belfast flor years the best in Irelandl, Derry. Limerick and Dublin competed. The choir under Madame C0sslett-Hel- ler's direction. with its wonderful shading and marvellous precision of tone, was too strong for the others, however. and the laurels went to them. The rival eh0irs showed all Celtic na- ture is capable. for no sooner was the award announced than they rose, cheering the victors. Madame Cosslett Heller was further honored by the in- vitatiOn 10 conduct the choir en masse, which she did.
 The prize winners of the Dublin Feis Ceoil are the singers who are booked to appear here shortly. Miss Joan Hol- land, contraltO; Miss Madge Murphy, violinist: Miss Violet Kelly. harpist. and Miss Jamie Jellie are among the soloists whom Madame Cosslett Heller will present to us here. a strong con cert company In themselves.

CAUGHT WOLF WITH HIS HANDS
The President Tells How a hunter
 Accomplished the Feat

The President Tells How a hunter
 Accomplished the Feat
 In couple of miles I was close enough to see what was going on. But one greyhound was left with Abernethy. Tue coyote was obviously tired, and Abernethy, with the aid of his perfectly trained horse, was help ing the greyhound catch it.
 Twice he headed it, and this enabled me to gain rapidly. TlFey had reached a small unwooded creek by the time I was within fifty yards: the lirtle wolf tried to break back to the left; Aber- nethy headed it and rode almost over 1t, and 1t gave a wicked snap at his floor, cutting the boot Then he wheeled and came toward it: again it galloped back. and just as 1t crossed the creek the greyhound made a rush. pinned it by the hind leg and threw it.
 There was seuffie. then a yell from the greyhound as the wolf bit fl. At the bite the hound let go and jumped back few feet. and at the same mo ment AberDethy, who had ridden his horse right on them as they struggled. leaped of and sprang on top of the wolf. He held the neins of the horse with one hand and thrust the other with a rapidlty and precision even greater than the rapiditv of the wolf s snap. into the wolf's mouth, tanning his hand down cTossw1se between the Jaws. seizing the lower jaw and bend Ing 1t down so that the wolf could not bite him.
 He had a stout glove on his hand. but this would have been of no avail had he not seized the animal just as he did. that is behind the canlnes. while his hand pressed the lips against the teeth: with his knees he kept the wolf from using its forepaws to break the hold. until it gave up struggling. When he thus Ieaped on and captured the coyote it was entirely free. the dog having let go of if. and he was obliged to keep hold of the reins of his horse with one hand. I was not twen- tv yards distant at the time. and as Ieaped of the horse he was sitting pIacidIy on the live wolf. his hand be- tween it's jaws, the greyhound stand ing beside him and hls horse standing by as placid as he was. Tn couple of minutes Fortescue and Lambert came up. It vas as remarkable feat of the kind as I have ever seen.-Mr Roosevelt in ScTibDer's Magazine
