"Mikado' was presented before fair
sired house by the Beggar Prince opera
company las, night. The company was
no, large enough to give the production
TO the bes; advantage, and animation
seemed lacking in the first act. This was
materially improved in the last act, where
there is more opportunity for fun making.
There are some very good voices, but the
best effects were Obtained in a qurtetie.
The audience was liberal with the APP
prevail OF applause and there were several
recalls.
Now Is the time 10 build side walks.
The bad weather will be here in a short
time and their need will be keenly felt. A
few wagon loads Of cinders from the wa
ter and light plant don't cost much and
will soon pack down and make asPlendid
walk. We know for We have tried IL.
This Is no, an advertisement for the Gin
der pile, but just a word Ehfown tn for the
public good. In the meantime plank
walks and the concrete article are Tot

The pleasing information has reached
as tina, Miss Laura stevens, pupil Of
Villa Maria Academy for hve years past,
has been classified in the Damrosch School
Of Music, New York city. DR.. Damroseh
pronounced her musical training excellent.
Thi, intelligence will do doubt be very
gratifying 10 the friends Of Miss Stevens

IL does another evidence why we should

CONDUCTOR PHILLIPS RECORD.

J. d. Phillips, freight conductor on
the Delaware railroad, will, on October
20th, complete his 4lst year in service
Of the company. He entered the employ
OF the company in 1865 and has been
with il continuously ever since. He has
never lost a day He began with the
company as a brakeman and in 1870 was
given a conductorship While his run is
a short one it requires a great amount of
work. IL is between this city and New
Castle and there Is much shifting TO be
done between those points.
During these years not a member Of
the train crew under Mr.. Phillips has
lost his life nor has q man been killed by
the trains over which he had super
vision. Some years ago man was
found on the track az Greenwood and il
was supposed he had been killed by the
train Of which Mr. Phillips was conductor.
The facts were never fully ascertained
but il developed that the man some time
previous to being found on the tracks
had quaueled with a number Of negroes
at Greenwood and the supposition has
always been that his body was deliber-
ately laid on the tracks.

no sooner had he got over these than he

him to Kansas Oily for a visit. When We
got there ho was 90 very weak whan he
would cry he would sink away and sesmed
like he would die.
"When rea,hod my sisters home she
said Immediately that We must feed him
Grape-Nuts and. although I had never used
the food We got some and for few days
gave him just the juice OF Grape Nuts and
milk. He got stronger 80 quickly we we're

you what strong, chubby youngsler the

AGED COUPLE BURIED TOGETHER.
Impressive Double Funeral for Peter an
Maria uninoa.

Impressive Double Funeral for Peter and
Maria Iinines.
Together In death as they had been
in life Peter and Maria Haines, the
aged couple, aged s3 and 7s years, re-
spectively, who died within two DAYS
OF each other, we're buried yesterday
from their late residence, No. 3l2
North Forty. first street, PHILADELPHIA.
Almost q hundred friends and relatives
were present, and followed the two
hearses. The funeral services were
conducted by DR.. j. d. Q. Hanna of
Centenary Methodist Church, and
were marked by beautiful eulogy on
the lives Of the couple. Miss Mar.
garet Hudson, soloist Of the same
church, rendered several anthems.
Numerous floral tributes surrounded
the two collins.
A coincidence is found in the fact
that the sister and brother-i law of
the dead woman died under the same
circumstances several years ago. The
wife died fret, after months OF suffer
ing from consumption, and the hus-
band, Charles l.. Similer. then living
at Nineteenth street and Fairmount
avenue, fell dead over his wife's bier
three days after.
