1.-THE Lion and the Mouse."-Charles
Klein's great plav. "The Lion and the
Mouse" which Henry B. Harris will
uuce here at the illinois Tuesday,
Oct. s, contains elements of vital in
terest to all classes of people. One, a
pOrtIaiture of the octopus of finance
who stern in his attitude to all, even
TO his wife and children is relentless
to his enemy, treading under his gol-
con fnel all those >who oppose him Or
his colossal schemes. The other is a
of a young and beau
tiful girl. the daughter of the judge
who is being driven to the wall with
impeachment and disgrace as the re-
suit of his righteous decision against
the trusts. So that in 'The Lion and
the Mouse" Mr.. Klein has given us an
idea of the influence of money ana
politics in the affairs of the general
public of today For the interpreta
tien of the most successful of plays
Henry B. Harris has gathered together
an exceptionally fine cast and its ad
vent here should prove a most inter
esting one.

AMAsA EATON
FAVORS CITY,
OW NED TUNNEL

Amasa NJ. Eaton. Esq, sent letter to
the city council committee yesterday.
strongly urging that the title to the pro-
posed tunnel to the East Side remain
with the city. In his letter he said:
In determining upon a plan for build
ing and financing the new tunnel there is
one thing the citizens or Providence
should insist upon, l. e., that the title to
the tunnel shall forever remain with the
city. The experience OF Boston Is deci-
sive on this point.
The time will some time come when
the validity OF the alleged perpetual fran
chise OF the trolley companies will have
TO be decided by the courts. The time
VIII sooner come when these companies
will be seeking renewal OF other fran
tied in duration Whom either event oc-
ours, with the title to this tunnel IN the
city. the city can deal with these COM
panies on equal terms. With the title to
in the New York. New Haven and Hart
ford Railroad company st that Sime, the
city will be powerless in their hands.
Mr.. Buckland Is a public-spirited citi-
cilities TO the citizens OF Providence. But.
as is his duty In the position he occupies.
he Is still more desirous TO get all he can
for the company OF which he is an hon
ored vice-president. Perhaps unconscious
ly TO himself. he therefore fails TO see. or
seeing he fails TO present another and
better plan, 1. e., let the city build and
own the tunnel, issuing It's own bonds
and charging a toll on every car pass
ing through It, the toll 10 be determined
for terms Of stated years. to be enough
to pay the interest on the bonds and to
provide a sinking fund for the payment
OF the bonds at maturity.
After the bonds are paid the tolls can
be reduced, by arbitration, and would
thus become a permanent source OF a
small income to the city, besides placing
the city in a position TO resist further
exactions such as have darkened the his
tory of the management of the financial
affairs of the city for several decades.
THE trolley companies would also ben
eft by this transaction. as the tolls would
be less than the cost OF the present un-
satisfactory service, and there would be
a saving in time also, which means saw
ing in money
"rherefore, above all, whatever is done,
keep the title to this tunnel In the city,"

ARMY OF TOURISTS
RETURNING TO HOMES

Boston, Sept. 5.-With the departure or
the dog days" and the advent OF Septem-
ber every gateway leading 10 Boston from
the mountain shore and lake resorts 10
crowded with returning army OF tour
lists and summer Xacatinnists--ln-or order
to accommodate the great throngs return
ing from all sections OF New England
and the Maritime Provinces trains have
to be split I'm sections, the baggage rooms
at the wharves and railroad terminals are
choked with trunks and other luggage,
and the steamers are crowded 10 the ca
pacity set upon them by the federal au-
thorities.
An interesting feature In connection
with the passage OF the great army of
vacationists through Boston is that many
who have been visiting shore and lake
resorts will visit the mountains before
returning TO their homes. This phenom-
enon of summer tourists spending the
whole or portion OF the autumn at the
White mountain resorts is Of compara-
lively recent origin.
