of comedy performances in all the gail ety pieces at Daly's Theatre.
 Miss Edwardes is really funny in destructive and fascinating way, and, unlike most condolences, she possesses a really good singing voice, which she uses with skill and discretion. She brings youth energy and great ambi- tion to her work, and in Princess Beg gar" she is confidently expected to more than duplicate her previous sue .cessors.
 Princess Beggar" was written by Edward Paulton, who is a mere youth, collaborated in the authorship of that famous old comic opera "Erminie," and who also wrote the successful come dy, "Niobe."
 Princess Beggar'' is in two acts the scene being laid in an imaginary Teutonic kingdom called Vagaria The central idea of the story is a consistent one, and has been carefully developed by MT Paulton along the lines of true farce, at the same time permitting the legitimate introduction of musical numbers.
 The Messrs. Shubert have given Princess Beggar'' a most lavish and beautiful equipment of scenery and costumes.
 Miss Edwardes was fortunate in se- curing the services of a thoroughly able supporting company. The prtma don- na is Miss Helen Marvin, who made a great hit as Nan" in tlle Country Girl" Stanley H. Forde, who was King Owl'' in Woodland, has a splendid part as Baron Itombardo, the financial magnate. The comedians are Edward M. Favor and Eddie Garvie, MT.

operation of the Fairbanks game mar ket, although, it is true, the intensity of the arctic cold is the chief factor in establishing and maintaining the town s claim to distinction in the item of it's game market. It is almost superfiuous to suggest that the market, operating, as it does only during the months named is spared the expense of artifi- cial refrigerating apparatus.
 Now here is where the novelty begins Instead of skinning the game and cur- ing up the carcass as in ordinary, everyday market, the deer, the moose, or the bear, as the case may be, is sim ply stood up on the floor of the mar ket, which is located in one of the prin- cipal buildings of the town, and al- lowed to freeze solidly, or probably it was frozen solidly within 30 minutes after it was killed The low temper ature that continually prevails permits the keeping of the game in this shape for months at a stretch, as once the carcass is frozen there is no decay un- til the freezing weather is over.
 One may enter the market and order a bear steak cut from Bruin who has occupied particular corner in the es- tablishment, looking for all the world as if he were alive, for several months, or haunch of venison from the deer that has been in another corner for an equally long period; or perchance, a choice cut of the lopdly moose or the kingly caribou that nave been making life-like poses in other sections of the market. Or, If 1t be mountain sheep or @ goat that the fancy craves, the same opportunity is offered for selec- ton. The animals appear just as they did in life, and the person who visits the place for the first time is apt to imagine himself in a menagerie rather than a market.
 The flavor and quality of the game under such conditions is said to be un- excelled. The freezing process and the length of time that is allowed to elapse between the killing and the eating of the animal seem to impart to the flesh tenderness that is characteristic.
 The market attracts attention to its location by placing on the sidewalk before its door, just as the cigar man puts out his wooden Indian, bear, 9 moose, stag, or some other animal from it's stock in trade. Last season the same bear was used for the pur- pose every day for five months, and was then cut up into steaks that were pronounced to be the most delicious that had ever been eaten in a locality that is famous for It's well-fiavored bear steaks-San Francisco Chronicle.

 Dial & Armstrong's stupendous scenic and musical allegory, The Four Sea sons," will be the magnificent headline attraction at Polls theater next week. This alone is a feature well worth dou- ble the price of admission, and it is supported by an imposing array of members of general superiority. "The Four Seasons is the greatest achieve ment of Dial & Armstrong. Through the Eight Vassar Girls" and the Twelve Navajo Girls" two of the sea sons most popular attractions, they have become well known, but in "The Four Seasons" they have a production by far outstripping any of their previ- ous essays. Through7a a combination Of a sextette of pretty girls, each of whom is a splendid singer and accomplished musician, as well as nimble dancer; a superb wardrobe of gorgeous and bril- liant costumes procured at lavish ex- penditure, and a myriad of iridescent electric lights, an interpretation Of the four seasons is given in such a manner as invariably to win inc unstinted ad- miration of all spectators.
 As a special feature the three Kea- tons, including Buster and Jingles, will be seen here.
 Some of the others will include the Comedy Trio, the Transatlantic Four and others.

Mortgage About to be Foreclosed on
 the Bungalow.
 If Rip Van Wrinkle had gone to sleep twenty years ago on the banks of Sad dle River, N. J., instead of in the Cats Aill Mountains muan earlier, he would awake to-day to find the former estate of the late Joseph Jefferson in a state of desolation and decay-the artistic bungalow overrun by innumerable cats and dogs, and hungry donkeys nibbling tufts of drygrass in the shade of the old apple trees.
 A fifteen thousand dollar mortgage IS hanking over the head of the present owner of the estate, Mrs. Isabelle c. Miller, a near relative by marriage to the Gould family, who has begun an action for divorce against her husband, John B. Miller, and who also appeared this week in the courts of Hackensack as a complainant against her coach man. Mike Cousack, charging him with assault and battery.
 The decay of the beautiful old place and the eccentricities of the owner are to-day subjects of common gossip among the farmers in Bergen county.
 With it's stone fountain filled with autumn leaves, the wind soughing through the cedar trees, the flowers dead in the conservatory. and stock and fowl roaming at large over the fields, few of the favored guests who once upon a time sat with the dean of the stage before his fireside would re- cognize the estate as it is to-day.

The report of the professional audi tor employed to overhaul the Peoria school accounts to find out how much was stolen by Newton c. Dougherty and how he came to be able to steal for years bears hard upon the promi- nent citizens who have been members and officers of the school board.
 It shows that the thefts from the school funds have aggregated about $5Oo,eOO in the last seven years, and that, in the 1S years of Deugherty's influential connection With the sehool management there, they may have reached $1, ,000,oO

ENTERTAINMENTS.
Hyperion Theatex,

At the Hyperion Monday night, Feb ruary 5, William Gillette will be seen in his new play "Clarice." The actor au- thor's new play "Clarice' is the, first from his pen since Sherlock Holmes was written, and during the early part or the season delighted British theatre- goers at Charles Frohman's Duke of Works Theatre in London. Scarcely any event in the American theatrical season equals in importance the seeing and hearing of a new play by William Gillette, who has contributed to the stage such plays as Sherlock Holmes, ' Secret Service,' Held by the Ene- my" "Too Much Johnson" Because She Loved Him So,' "Mr. Wilkinson's S Widows" "All the Comforts of Home, :"
 Esmeralda" and the adaptation of The Private Secretary" The impor- tance of "Clarice". is enhanced by the tact that it permits MT. Gillette to come forward in a new character cre- ation which reveals deeper and tender CT phases of his art than any of the preceding roles in which he has tri- umpfled. It is dominated by an appeal ing love story, first of all, in which the players sentimental qualities will be in frequent requirement. Aside from that it is frightened with comedy scenes and has the intensely thrilling dramatic moments that are sure to keep one deeply interested. London liked "Clarice'' and enthused over it. There was especial praise for the gen. ius of MT. Gillette in avoiding hack neyed stage methods and providing novel and delightful situations Seats on sale, ~

AT P1NEY RIDGE.

At Piney Ridge" a southern drama in four acts by David Higgins will be presented as the next attraction at the New Haven theater for three nights and Wednesday mSinee, commencing next Monday night. The scenes are laid in Tennessee. The story deals with southern life long after the war. Jack Rose, a founding brought up in the wilderness of Piney Ridge, makes a fortune out of mines and falls in love with Azalie Deering, the daughter of the governor of Tennessee. Mark Bri- arson, cashier in the governors bank, also loves her, but Jack is the favored suitor and they become engaged. Their marriage is prevented by the announce- ment of an octoroon that Jack is her son. She was a former slave of the Brlarson family This charge annuls the engagement and leaves Jack to prove that he is white before he can claim AZalle in marriage, Through a series of thrilling climaxes the plot Is carried until the last act, when the
 incidents permit of Jacks making the proof he is after and fixes the stain of negro blood on Briarson.
 This story, told in David Higgins most vigorous fashion, well-blending humor. dramatics and character study, has served to keep At Piney Ridge" popular for several years and it is now a standard attraction of it's class and kind. The play will be given with ade- ouate scenic effects, musical features and a good company of players in the respective parts. Mir. Van Kinzie ap- pears as Jack Rose. the young Tennes- seean.

UNIQUE FROZEN MENAGER1Es.

The worlds most unique game market is in Fairbanks, Alaska. If you will take the trouble to examine the latest map of the vast and valuable North
 west Territory purchased by Uncle Sam from Russia in 1867, you will find that Fairbanks is on the Chelena River, in the rich Panama district, of which it is the thriving metropolis. It lies close to the Arctic Circle, and in common with other communities in the valley of the Yukon, has an average mean tempera- tur of about ten degrees below zero during the months of November, De- eember January, February, and March
 At intervals during the long winter season the thermometer goes as low as 75 degrees below the zero mark, but such an excessive temperature is not absolutely necessary for the successful

en, many of the windows are broken, many of the shutters hang upon sin gle hinge, and the old mill and barn, once used as a studio by the actor, are filed with rubbish.
 Notwithstanding its decay the one story house with the clambering vines now gaunt and leahess, is filled with many costly antiques, all of which have been collected by Mrs. Miller. Costly paintings adorn the walls and bric-a-brac of every description actu- ally crowd the rooms, but they are cov- cred with dust and cobwe'bs.
 Just how many cats and dogs Mrs. Miller possesses is a matter of conjec- ture. They seem to swarm about the house. There are black cats and white cats, yellow, Maltese and tiger striped, Some on the doorstep, others under the cedar trees, and still others summing themselves on the rickety fence which divides the garden from the barnyard.
 Mir. Jefferson made hosts of friends during his time spent at Saddle River. Perhaps one of his greatest, admirers was c. J. Busch Kelser, the village postmaster. Mir. Kelser, besides keep ing c small post-office, is an Insurance agent. He is a sturdy man for his six ty years, and delights to talk about his old friend Joe

 "I was down in Georgia on some bus mess, and was staying at Augusta when I saw by the bills all over town that Joe was to play one night in Rip. So just went up to the box office and paid three dollars for seat
 That night I walked in and who should I meet in the vestibule but one of the Jefferson boys He knowed me, 1 too. Well, he wanted me to take that three dollars back, but wouldn't do it. It was a seat right up in the frons row.
 "To make a long story short, the cur | tain went up and the play began. Once or twice thought I saw Joes | eyes wink, but I didn't know he recog- nized me. The house was damned, and after the curtain went down for the first time l happened to look up. and there he was, peeping from be- hind the curtain. He winked his eye and smiled,
 'Gosh! l thought to myself. You see 1 didn't know he was winking at me But such was the case, and ] | went around to see him. He shook my hand and beamed upon me with his old-time hun1or. Then he referred to some stylishly dressed. folks in the box on the left, and asked me if 1 knowed who they was He said they were his wife and children, so nothing would do but that I sit with them in the box.

It also shows that these thefts were made not only possible but easyaby the negligent manner in which the school board permitted 1t business to be done by it's failure, if no worse, to have any adequate system of accounting or any proper checks upon the use of inc public funds confided to it's care.
 In the light of these revelations it is easy to understand what has puzzled many people. It is easy to under- stand why Newton c.

'. ,,Of3 course Dougherty must have had an original impulse toward dishonesty: but there is no reason to believe that 1t was stronger than is the average mans. And there is no doubt at all that Dougherty became habitually. systematically, even wildly and won- tonly, dishonest because the negligence of those whose business and duty it was to keep him honest encouraged him to steal-Cmade it SO easy for him to steal that only the most exceptional strength of character could have rey sisted the temptation-C Chicago Intexs Ocean

HAPPY HOOLIGAN.

It is said that the advent of musical comedy is wholly responsible for the lack of interest nowadays in serious dramatic work. This is undoubtedly true to a very large extent, and the overwhelming preference shown to a combination of laugh-provoking incl dents and catchy, tuneful music is cas- ily attributed to the mental condition of the average theater patron, who finds relief and relaxation in an enter tainment such as Happy Hooligans Trip Around the World, affords, and wherein is blended a wholesome quality of fun with song creations of vim and charm.

This production, for it's American tour, is under the direction of the, new ly formed firm of Frank Curzon of Lon- don and James K. Hackett of New York. The company comes direct from London, and among its members will be found many well known favorites with audiences of the British metropo- lis.
