"Gav New York.

"Gay New York; successful musical comedy. will open weeks engagement at the Bljou theatre tonight. There will be the usual matinees. In speaking of a recent performance the Wheeling Teie graph said:
 Some good shows in the comedy line have been seen in Wheeling at both the houses during the past season. but there has been nothing that eould'surpass Gay New York and few that could equal 1t. It Is one of those comedies that have real wit of the bright and sparkling variety, much tuneful and pleasing music, of the kind that catches on with all classes, there are a host of pretty girls who are handsomely and gorgeously gowned. and specialties that are a decided novelty.
 Dan Mason, as the professor, was there in his old time form and he was ably as- sisted by the members of the company, prominent among whom were such stellar lights at Lillian Hoerlein, Louise Sanford and Kathryn Bartlett. The other mem- bers of the company are excellent and al- together 1t Is most exeellently balanced. feature of the performance are the many evolutions of the chorus which is well drilled and does some difficult work in marching. The march of all nations in the last act Is something out of the ordinary and was the cause of consider able favorable comment.

ADJUSTMENTS
At East Lake.

An exceptionally large crowd visited East Lake Park yesterday, and all day large crowds of pleasure seekers were much In evidence. The various amuse- ment enterprises were liberally patronized. especially the circle swing, a new feature of the park which promises to be ex- tremely popular. The miniature railroad and the roller coaster however. continue much in favor. They were kept busy yes terday afternoon, while many other amusements came in for their share of attention.
 The attendance at East Lake has start ed off with a rush and indications point to a most successful season. The com pletion of d large skating rink at the lake will also draw the crowds. A feature of the day at East Lake park was the informal opening of the East Lake Casino by Helen May Butler military band of young women. An audi fence of fair proportions attended the af- | ternoon concert, at which programme of popular music was rendered. second | concert was given by the band last night

W. C. Scott, we'll known accountant and noon about 5 o'clock at the Copeland in- firmary from the effects of a pistol shot Friends of the deceased believe that his death was the result of an accident.
 The bullet penetrated MT Scotts left side near the heart The shooting occur red in al wholesale house on Morris ave- nue and Twenty-fourth street sometime in the early afternoon. MT. Scott was i'm mediately removed to Copeland's infirm- ary, where everything possible was done to save his life
 He was carried to the infirmary in the ambulance of Gaudin O., and did not lose consciousness, 1t Is said, until after he was placed upon the operating table.
 The remains were removed to the un- dertaking establishment of Green & Go. and prepared for burial.

TELLS BY
 THEIR SLEEP

"I can tell by my little ones sleep when a cold is coming on' said a mother when speaking of the advance symptoms of colds in children. {" They toss about, are rest less, their breathing is heavy and there are symptoms of night sweats. The next morn- ing 1 start with Scott's Emul- sion. The chances are that in a day or two they are all over 1t. Their rest is again peaceful and the breathing normal"
 Here's a suggestion for all mothers. Scott's Emul- sion always has been almost magical in its action when used as the ounce of preven- tion. Nothing seems to over- come child weakness quite so effectively and quickly as Scott's Emulsion.

VISITING PRELATE
 OCCUPIES PULPIT Monsignor Fowler Breaches at
 St. PauI'S Church VERY STRONG DISCOURSE Preacher Exhorts Catholics to Live Better Lives and to be Able to Explain Teachings of the
 Church.
VERY STRONG DISCOURSE

Monslgnor Fowler preached notable sermon at high mass at St. Paul's church yesterday. All the masses were attended by large congregations. At 6:30 o'clock the Rev. Father Coyle was the celebrant At 7:3O o'clock the Right Rev. Monsignor was the eelebrant and during the ser vices delivered a short discourse. The Rev. Father Kitrick was the celebrant at 9:3O and the Rev. Father Bratton sang high mass.
 Among the pastors notices read from the altar were these: Special collection for the San Francisco sufferers; hour for the Sunday afternoon devotions , o'clock; May devotions in honor of the Blessed Virgin. beginning next Tuesday, 6 D. m.
 The pastor announced that member of the congregation had given to the church statue of St. Anne of Beaupre.
 Yesterdays gospel told of Christ as the good shepherd and Monsignor Fowler, spoke of, the Savior as the Shepherd of the church, and of the relation that the members of the church should bear to Christ, the divine head. The speaker  of God, and 1t was a gift for which Cath olics who possessed it should be ever most grateful. He then pointed out that it was the Christians duty to know, love and serve the Master
 "To know Christ is to love Him, and to love Him is to serve Him. said the preacher Monsignor Fowler eXhorted Catholics to be better Catholics and to SO live as to be worthy exemplars. He said the Catholic should strive to be the honestest and the kindest of persons Moreover. the Catholic should be ready to give an answer to the well meant question asked by the non-Cathohc
 The Catholic who would be ashamed to admit that he knew nothing about the tariff, or other economic questions or government often falls to answer ques- tion about Catholic dogma. He hangs his head. and says, "1 don't know-go ask the priest" This, the speaker said, was not as it should be. Every Catholic should be able not only to state the churchs teaching about the Euenarlst' about the Immaculate Conception or the Blessed Virgin, and about other mat ters of dogma but should be able to ex- plain, also, the meaning of every cere- mony and the significance of every vest ment worn by the priest.
 The preacher spoke in rugged style and gave his hearers large chunks of food for thought.
 "Some people are proud of their line age" he said, land this Is not bad, where ancestors have achieved honorable dis tinction. But after all what is human distinction? We come from common ancestry and every one of us is covered with the slime of the serpent. But will tell you what you may refer to with prlde-It is your Catholic lineage. If your father and your mother and all your ancestors were loyal to the Catho- lie church. then you have something to be proud of"
 Speaking of the character of parish the monsignor said: "If you ask me to judge of the life of Cotholic congre- gation, I do not ask how many million aires there be, how many lawyers, doc

tors or great merchants there be In the pews; ask only this: How go to confession and communion
 "The Catholic who goes to communion but once a year. the Catholic who ful- fills only his Easter duty, Is but holding to the fence of the church. How often should you go to confession and com munion? Four times year? I say that a Catholic should approach the sacra- ments at least once a month. In the early church assisting at mass meant always receiving holy communion. If you know the Master you will love Him and if you love Him you will serve Him"
 Monsignor Fowler is the guest of Fa- ther Goyle. He belongs to the arch diocese of Dubuque, but Is now attached immediately to the Propaganda Eide at Rome.
