ADELAIDE Hermann, queen of magic and
widow of Hermann, the Great, headed the
bill with an exhibition of necromancy that
effectually deceived the eye and defed
the analysis of the most acute observer.
Since her last Appearance in this city
she has been waking folks up on the other
side of the herring pond. CARRIED as an
Egyptian princess she made a good many
Newarkers rub heir eyes as they viewed
her London sensation, THE Magic Cross
and "The Sleeping Beauty, or a Dream in
Mid-Air."
The Beauty" is seen to be apparently
floating in space. as the title would sug-
gest. a few feet above the stage. To
prove that she is not suspended from the
gridiron by wires. the magician encircles
the sleeper with a hoop, within which she
moves the length of her body and back
again.
At the close of her act, madam permit
ted the white glare of the spotlight to il
Illuminate her beauty while she threw bon
bons over the footlights with a motion
that resembled a pugilistic uppercut, and
kept everybody lodging the sweet missiles
as they realized sadly that, mistress of
the let black art though she be, ADELAIDE
Hermann is mortal woman after all, and
throws as women will tn the end of time,
with a stiff elbow!
A close second on the program was the
group of ~acrobats, billed as THE Seven
Yuilians.'

clever people who keep things humming

NEED OF MISSIONS
INADEQUATE EXCUSES OF
THOSE ASKED TO WORK.
New Jersey Institute Begins Actua,
Work Today-Preliminary Meet
ing Last Evening.

After the preliminary meeting Inst night
in the North Reformed Church the New
Jersey Missionary Institute at noon today
opened actually the immediate work Of Its
third yearly session.
The session was prefaced by a missionary
meeting of a popular nature Mt the church
last night, and will be concluded tomorrow
night. after an afternoon and evening
meeting each day.
DIR. L. w Cronkhite, a missionary just
back from Burma, delivered the II o'clock
lecture today. Other meetings are sched-
uled for Ais this afternoon and 5 o'clock
tonight.
Mr.. Cronkhite explained to them the con-
ditions existing when he and his band Of
coworkers planted their feet among the
heather Koreans, and in part said:
I'VE have a right to be interested In the
heathens; one because God has made so
many. Christ has died for them. We are
of heather origin. The heather is the in
heritance of Christ and ours as joint heirs.
"Three events have occurred during the
past decade which to us should prove the
great love Of the Master for the poor
heather. The calling out of America as
the great Christian power of the west, as
a world power, and a similar calling out of
the great virlle heather power OF the
west. Japan. and more significant han
either, the present religious awakening Of
nearly one-third Of the human race in
China"
The speaker then told of many Incidents
showing how readily the heather In the
jungles is willing to accept the teachings
Of Christianity.
This afternoon DIR. C.. C. Creegan. just
back from n world tour of the mission
fields, will talk generally about the prog
ress of foreign missions.
There will be a stereopticon lecture at
the night meeting. C. ". yickrey, of the
Y. P. C. A., speaking on the subject Of

MAGISTRATE IN RAID.
Wife Pulled Him from Bed by the Hail
Under Bonds.

PITTSBURG. Nov. 12.-Mrs. McMillen,
wife Of Magistrate A. w. Mcmillan, yes
terday led the police in a raid on another
wcman's home and found her husband
there. She appeared against him in court
later and had him held on a serious charge.
Last evening she announced that she would
file suit for divorce today.
Mrs. McMillen and her husband gained
notoriety a few months ago when State
Representative l. B. Cook was found IN
company with Mrs. McMlllen, and was Sc
riously stabbed by her husband. McMillen
has since sued his wife for divorce, and
has sued Cook for alternating the wife's at
f~ections.
Since hat affair, Mrs. McMillen, who has
always declared her innocence, has been
trailing her husband with detectives. At
2 o'clock yesterday morning she went to
police headquarters with a private detective
and asked that the house Of Mrs. NJ. E.
Ewing be raided.
McMillen was found in bed asleep. He
was pulled out by the hair by his
wife, who turned him over to the po-
lice. He was held for court under 1000
bail.

Blaney's-"The Rocky Mountain
Exnreas.0

Those who took the Rocky Mountain
Express" at Blaney's Theatre last night
had in exhilarating run for their money.
The piece deals with railroad life In the
West and abounds In thrilling situations.
There is a climax and a sensation to al
most every one of the sixteen scenes into
which the four acts are divided. There WINS
a large audience present and 1t apparently
enjoyed itself immensely.
The mechanical effects necessary to do
justice to the authors surprising concep-
ton of the way things happen in the
Rocky Mountain country were somewhat
astonishing. Indeed, the play had the
virtue of keeping the audience in a con-
tinual state of wonder as to what was go
ing to happen mex
The production was made under the di-
rection of Messrs. Klemit, Gazzolo and
Bernard. The services of ~thirty-three peo-
pie were required TO fill all the roles and
the acting was In every way quite as re-
markable as the play.
Vaudeville specialties occasionally divert
ed the audiences attention from the more
prosecuted heroine, and the unmitigated
villain. The Diamond Comedy -Four, JACK
and Lydia Hayman and La Mar, Spanish
dancer, furnished the specialties, and they
were much applauded.
Prominent parts in the play were taken
by Roberl E.. O'Connor, Lawrence Will
Jams. Earl Sterling. Jack Hayman, Will
lam Lewis, Ruy Foster. Catherine Chal-
Toner, Eva Lewis, Martha Shields, Lydia
Hayman and others.

Arabia, that II missionary work is a mis-
take it Is not the error of the church, but
of God. This missionary delivered the
main address OF last Nights meeting and it
had to do mainly with The excuses church.
men in this country have given him for
their refusal to take up missionary work
In uncivilized countries.
The sum and substance of this was that
their refusals are based on no adequate
reasons at all.
Some say. he declared, that they can
not go Oh account of their health. That Is
nonsense. The fields where missionaries
are needed embrace all kinds of climate.
Some are fit for the consumptive and
others are as cold as Labrador. The
boards are calling for workers In Mexico
and Peru. People will go to Arizona and
Egypt for their health. but when it comes
to going there to preach the Gospel they
say that their health will not allow 1t.
Some say that they cannet 600 account
of the language. They have all the world
Of languages to choose from, from the
harder tongues like Arabic to the easier
ones like Spanish There Is even a call
now for English missionaries to go to
Japan and China. where they can teach In
their own language. ,
"Others think they are too well endowed
with learning to waste their time in for
eign work. l met one young man who
assured me that he was especially de-
signed TO preach to. a large city congrega-
- 10 "ShtN. -. - -
or Pittsburg or Philadelphia, 1 told him
that he could find larger audiences In Cal
cutta than he would ever find here. l do
not think he viii ever become a foreign
missionary, however.
"Lnck OF qualifications is another excuse
but If a man is not fit to preach in China
he is not fit to preach In America.
Another rensOe rffea elVpn is thnt mis-
sionnry work should begin at home. In
Canada l vas tod hat al the graduates
from the seminaries were being called to
three of the northwestern provinces, where
there was not Il sli gle missionary.
II looked mp the POPULATION - thes- V'St
tracts and found that 1t totaled only COCO,
and most of the inhabitants were godly
emigrants. What Is that compared with
Afghanistan. with its 100000 souls, with
not one person to teach to them Chris
tianlty? You hear about Sums; the Five
Points In New York is a slum in a city,
but Arabia is one vast sluna.
Love OF home aud fanily cause many
to refuse to go. II 1t were not for their
fathers or mothers, they tell you. they
would willingly go. But the trouble is
that there are not enough orphans to carry
on the work, so some that are not orphans

At Shepard's Arcade Theatre this week
the special vocal attraction is the song

with colored pictures depicting picturesque
and Characteristic scenes in the South OF

Grunewald has never appeared to better
advantage than in the rendering OF this
pleasing number. Tomorrow night at 9
o'clock at the Arcade local aspirants for

and cash prizes. Friday night views of
Ferris Brothers works will be the chief
attraction Saturday at the performances

show was Madam Etoile's horses and
Vinell's boxing stations, not the least
feature of it being the clever dancing of
the equines. The two boxers faced each
other In true professional style.

greeted with storms of applause. Judg-

seems necessary TO introduce the poor
fellows with a commonplace picture of
the spectators at the Britt-Nelson fight in
Frisco, in which they are depicted as
straining their Threats to entertain a
husky, vociferous crowd of "rooters."
Others who helped to make o happy at

waldmann's-Bowery B-urlesqucrs.

The Bowery Burlesquers present a good
burlesque at Waldmann's this week. The
show is out of the general run of variety
performances. 1t is given In three acts.
"On the Bowery' is the opening scene,
and during the action many interesting
things take place. The second act which
is called the '~'Sculptor's Studio" is well
set, and several shapely women pose in
living pictures. The Essex Market Police
Court is the scene of the last act, and
here, again, the action affords much merri-
ment. Ben Jansen, a clever Hebrew
comedian, appears to great advantage In
this scene. Mr.. Jansen is. in fact, the star
of the entire performance, and is ably
assisted by a capable company.
The specialties which are worked in dur
Ing the performance are up-to-date in
every respect. Racket g Douglas deserve
much credit for their act, which Is clean
and clever. Arthur and Ethel Miller intro
luce a whirlwind waltz, which catches the
house, and Carmelita D'Elcedere Is good.
On the whole, the production makes an in
teresting evenings entertainment.

columbia-"Billy the KID.


In Billy the Kid" Walter Woods and
Joseph Santley, the authors of the piece,
have given the admirers of melodrama one
of the most startling pictures of Western
life seen at the Columbia in a worry long
time. Mr.. Santley. the boy actor is
the star of the affair and portrays a des-
perado and outlaw. He displays all the
GOODNESS and agility in handling firearms
that one would expect of a man of this de-
scription.
The piece tells Of Stephen Wright. n
wealthy ranch owner. who has married
Billy's mother, Mary. Mary had been mar
ried to an Eastern man who had deserted
her and left a son who was Billy. After
enduring many hardships Mary concluded
to try matrimony again In the belief that
her first husband was dead. The latter, how
ever, is very villainously alive, and when
he hears of bis wife's second marriage and
Of her second husbands wealth, he starts
an interesting little game of blackmaii.
The conditions he names to his wife for
his disappearance do not meet with her
approval, and she decides that the best
thing for her to do Is TO leave the country.
When husband No. l sees what is up he
6%cnounces her before husband No. 2. Dur

Mary and her second husband are killed by
the first husband.

DEER IN WATERBURY.
Jumped Picket Fence and Ran
 Through Calvary Cemetery.

NJ. c. Kelly of Spencer avenue, owner of property in the vicinity of Calvary cemetery. was doing some work about the premises to-day when he was surprised to see a young deer bound through the brush nearby and jump the picket fence into the ceme- tery. Mir. Kelly says the animal glided along so mechanically that one could scarcely see it move and 1t travelled with such rapidity 1t was out of sight in few seconds. He says 1t cleared the fence without any effort and crossed the cemetery like fash of lightning. A farmer who happen ed along at the time threw his hands in the air and shouted to everybody fin the neighborhood to come and see the wild deer. Some of the residents of that district claim to have seen 1t on and off for the past few weeks and hope 1t will find some other stamping ground before their garden truck comes over ground.
