Theatres.

Another bill even more attractive than
last weeks great offering will be intro
duced at the Forrest Theatre Philadel-
phia, this week and will be headed by
George Fuller Golden, who has attained
more meritorius mention than any mon
ologuist on the American stage to day on
account of his Lrilliancy of speech, great
conception of comedy and unequalled
method of entertaining great audiences.
He ranks highest amongst the vaudeville
stars of the Klaw & Erlanger Branch, aud
this year his conversation on the happen
ings of the day are said to excel anything
he has heretofore attempted. LANE
D'Eve, pronounced by the Partisan press
to be the most beautiful and best dressed
singer in the land of the Fleur de Lis,
makes her first appearance in Philadel-
phia in complete and new transformation
act of exceptional excellence. Winston's
seals, the wonderful circus oct with their
famous riding seal, is another headliner.
Hill & SylYani are sensational bicyclists
who introduce new feats. Frosini is
styled the wizard of the accordion and
he has made the playing of this peculiar
instrument an art Ricoaboni's horses
will be the spectacular offering. Cirque
valli, the great juggler, and the famous
OloSh-idOC OOAAOuion, OOOlSO GNduo, buO
real Honey Boy" of comedy, remain
another week to add to the strength of
this remarkable vaudeville bill.
After rest of three weeks, William
Ingersoll, leading man of thes Orpheum
Dramatic Stock Company, made his re-
appearance in the cast at the Chestnut
street Theatre, Philadelphia. last evening
as JONES'" the hymnbook salesman in
Broadhurst's comedy, "What Happened
to Jones'" This merry farce comedy is
one of those funny plays founded on a
case of mistaken identity. Jones, who is
a spectator at prize fight, seeks shelter
in the home of professor when the po-
lice rail the bout The professor was
also at the fight and threatened with ex-
posture, he is compelled to give refuge to
Jones The latter assumes the role of the
Bishop of Australia, the professors
brother, who is expected at about the
time Jones makes his appearance. The
result of this imposition on the professors
family can readily be imagined, especially
when the real bishop arrives on the scene.
Mr.. Ingersoll, who appeares as Jones, has
role in which he will be seen to splendid
advantage and Lillian Lawrence will
have delightful part as ''Cissy."

Lisbon; H. NJ. Black, of Jobstown; Frank
Earl, DR.. Leon Goble, of Pemberton.
Charles L. Rogers was made chairman
of the meeting, and NJ Warner Hargrove,
secretary. Several remarks were made by
the gentlemen present, setting forth the
benefits of the road as proposed, to the
effect that it would connect West Jersey
with the Ocean county shore, and make
practically straight road across the state,
due east from Philadelphia, completing a
great state highway, for the use of the
travelling public generally, from which
would follow result that in a short time
would pay the cost Of the road by the in
flux of men and capital.
1t was stated that State Commissioner
of Roads, Hon. E. G. Hutchinson, had
placed himself fairly On record as being
in favor of the road, by letter and voice,
giving it to be understood that he only
approved the improved road between
Lakewood and Lakehurst, now complet-
ed, with the understanding that it be con-
tinued to Browns Mills-in- Pines.
As permanent organization the follow
ing committee was appointed Charles R.
LeCompte, Lakewood; Fred Stanwood, |

Rogers was made permanent chairman of
the committee. NJ Warner Hargrove was
elected secretary; Joseph ]. White, treas
urer; Frank Earl. engineer; with instruc
tons to act at once.
Public sentiment is very strongly in
favor of the road, and there is general
feeling that it will meet the appreciation
u all public spirited persons, and will be
\ matter of fact within the next two
years.

The Pennsylvania Railroad offers an Atfrac-
tive Outing during the Christmas season.
Have you ever visited Washington? This
is a season of giving, why not give yourself a
Capital? You cannot visit it to better advan-
tage than under the auspices of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Personally-Conducted System.
An unrivaled opportunity is offered in its
Christmas Holiday Tour on December 26.
All Pennsylvania Railroad Tours are high
class in every respect. Tourists travel in
special trains of the very highest grade of
equipment and are quartered in the best
hotels in Washington, nothing better being
obtainable for the rates named.
Under the care of an experienced Tourist
Agent, who is assisted by Chaperon, parties
see all the instructive and interesting fea-
lures of Washington life; all the buildings
worth visiting, the home of the President
Tourists may also pay visit to Mt. Vernon,
the home and last resting place of Washing
ton, at a minimum cost, as side trip.
One sees more of Washington in a short
time under the direction of the Pennsylvania
Railroad than would be possible under any
circumstances If travelling independently, as
experience has arranged the itineraries to
cover the most important points without
unnecessary delays.
The very low rates at which tickets are sold
for this tour, towering not only transpor-
tation, but hotel accommodations for two
days, transfers from the station TO hotels In
| Washington, and other necessary expenses
for three days, render this outing particularly
appealing. Tickets will be sold at the low
rates of Sl2 and Sl4.50 from New York, 50 and
Sll so from Philadelphia, and at proportions
| ate rates from other points.
| Full Information concerning this Christmas
outing, and of similar tours to be run during
! the winter and spring, may be obtained from
Pennsylvania Railroad Ticket Agents, or Geo.
