NEW HYPERION
 MANAGER HERE E. D.. Eldridge, Former Head of the Waldorf Thea
 ter, Now in Charge. TEN YEARS WITH
 THE SHUBERTS co. Will Make No Changes in Corps of Assistants or
 Alterations in
 House.

p. D. Eldridge. who was recently appointed manager of the Hyperion theater by the Shuberts, has arrived In the city and is making plans for the coming season. He stated last night that the management will make no changes in the corps of assistants at the theater and that no alterations will be made on the building itself during the coming. season. Another year MT, Eldridge thinks that the Shu- berts will make the Hyperion building one of the best in the country.
 The new manager has been in the employ of the Shuberte for the past ten years, and comes here direct from the Waldorf theater in Londan. The Waldorf theater is the largest of the forty-one owned in London by the Shuberts. and is the second most beau tiful playhouse in that city, the first being the famous Scala theater. The Waldorf is located at Kings Way and Catherine street, and is in the heart of the theater district.
 MT. Eldridge says the theaters of London and the customs of the people who attend them are far different, from those in this country The exter- for of the English theater is much more prepossessing and the structures are among the most beautiful of the cities. Inside the American playhouse presents better appearance. In addi- tion to the costly decorations the light ing is much better in this country In England the acting is done in the pit and the ladies and gentlemen in the. stalls and the first balcony all have to wear evening clothes.
 | The attendants at the English thea-
 tres and all those officially connected
 except the ticket sellers in the box of l flee wear certain uniform and each I theatre has special insignia for its l employees which distinguishes thenl
 from those of other houses. The per-
 fornances there begin at o'clock and i do not end until 11:15 and each has a | curtain raiser.
 MT Eldridge arrived from London
 early in July and has since been in
 New York. Before going to England
 he managed theatres for the Shuberts in Utiea, Rochester Troy, New York

INsULTED sHoPKEEPER
So Woman Had Customer Placed Un-
 der Arrest.

Flare Gaspard, Italian, entered the store of Annie Gadolowitz, a small grocery, at 425I Orchard street, yes terday afternoon, and by so doing met an evil fate. Flare is son of the swarthy lands of the Mediterranean Sea, while Annie is Hebrew by ex- traction. Flare, after surveying the store and Annie, bought a few sweet meats. That was all right, but when he began to insult her and attack her Annie changed her mind and realized that, instead of having a customer, she had a police case. So she asked in the help of the police, and as a consequence Flare was taken to the station and locked up. Officers Waas and McGrath, of the Dixwell avenue station, did tie work.

 dry Account. TO PAY $35, ,OOO NOTES Temporary Action Will Save City Considerable in
 Interest.
TO PAY $35,OOO NOTES

Lewis, voted to meet the special county tax of $S3,0oO.S5 which must be paid by the beginning of next month out of the general sundry ac- counts of the city This will avoid the laying of a special tax to meet the county requirement, but will probably result in the account of the city show ing deficit at the end of the year in- stead of the customary surplus when the books are balanced unless unex-' pected income in large quantities comes in to make up the drain.
 A vote was also passed auth rizing the payment for the time bef.Sg of notes to the amount of $S5,0OO voted April 25. The payment will be made out of the general account and 1t is expected that the notes will have to be reissued about the first of Decem- Der.

 A request from the board of health for c 3 transfer rom the garbage ac- cour to the account for contagious diseases was passed, the aplount in volved being $250. The annual appro- priation made to the board for con- tagious diseases has been exhausted this year on account of the large num- Der of cases which the board has had to care for.
 Tax returns of $142.S2 to Edward Gill; bert and $160,11 to Joseph IA. Pease were voted The taxes had been paid twice.

Imported Precious stones :.

More than $4s,o0o.OO0 worth of pre- cious stones entered the country through the port of New York last year, the greatest In the history of the business, and this city Is now regarded not only as the principal diamond mar ket of the world, but also the chief de- pot for cutting the rough gems.
 recent news dispatch from London states that workmen from the diamond factories of Antwerp are emigrating to the United States in large numbers. at tracted by the high wages offered in New York and Massachusetts, and that local opinion is alarmed for the future of Antwerp's ancient industry. Since the first gem was exported from the Cape of Good Hope in 1868. the United States has paid about $s25. .000. 900 for diamonds, or one-half of the amount of cash which South Africa has obtained for it's entire supply of precious stones sold to all parts of the world.
 These figures, however, represent on- ly what the importers have paid, and authorities in the trede say that the public pays at least twice as much. Taking into account the fact that the value of diamonds has been going up steadily. having advanced 200 per cent in the last eight yea~s, some dealers are of the opinion that the gems brought into this country from South Africa in these thirty-eight years must now be worth more than a billion dol lars. Nearly all of them are in exist ence, as the per centage of loss Is so small as to be unimpottant.

MoNTGOMERY PROOF.

w. H. Carrigan, living at 200 Sev- enth Aves Montgomery. Ala, says: "Although I am an old man, being well along In the seventies, I feel as well as lots of men only half my age. I did not aways feel as youthful and as we'll as I do now, for there was a time when I felt the full weight of my years, This was about four years ago when I was down with kidney dis ease and lumbago. At that time my kidneys were terribly disordered and my back and limbs ached all the time fin fact, so sore and stiff that it was all could do to get up or down with out assistance. At night I could not turn over in bed and my rest was dis turned and broken on account of the frequency of the kidney action and tho pain in my back. The slightest cold made me feel much worse for it al- ways settled in my kidneys. I suffered in this manner for long time, trying g first one remedy and then another, until I was actually discouraged. It seemed as if nothing would relieve me. Finally one day an old friend asked me why I did not try Doans Kidney Pills and I procured a box. In a short time I commenced to feel better, the pains in my loins and back ceased, my back became stronger and my kid- neys began to assume their normal functions. I was cured by Doan's Kid ney Pills, and am now in unusually good health and aside from a cold, am in perfect condition.

Professor Sarah Bernbardt.

Two events in the world of arts of more than usual interest have just occurred here.
 One of them concerns Sarah Bern hard, Professor Sarah Bernhardt'' said the report in every paper and fl was true-the famous actress has been appointed a professor of dramatic Reclamation at the Conservatoire.
 For years past Mime. Bernhardt has been proposed for the Legion of Hon. or, and for years her name was re- jected by the Conservatoire Chancel- lery of the Legion. The Red Ribbon could not be given to an actress, no matter how famous.
 If Mme Bernhardt had been a pro- lessor, or in some official employ, well and good, but a mere actress never. The chances of her becoming a professor were remote, since she quar- relied some years ago with the Acad- emy of Dramatic Art which makes these appointments, and when her siss ter in art the actress Mme. Bartet, who was already a professor. was giv- en the Red Ribbon, two years ago, there was a general outery.
 Now M. Briand the Minister of Fine Arts, has taken the matter into his hands and has appointed the actress a professor. She will have a class, but what is even more important--she will certainly get the decoration, probably on next Battle Day, July IA.
 The other event is literary, M. Mau- rice Dennay, now the favorite dramatist of French society has been elected a member of the French Academy.
 Why Is the new immortal a favor tte of French society?
 Because he fagellates their vices and peccadilloes, as he did in the play "Paraitre", recently produced at the Theatre Francais, which depicted the passion of everybody to appear some thing different from what they are He is a brilliant and witty writer
