PINAEORE PASSED OFF
VERY WELL
BIG CROWD HEARS TUNEFUL
DITTIES AND CATCHY
MUSIC.

The comic opera Pinafore in the
Astoria theatre last night was given
to an audience that filled the house,
and the occasion passed off smoothly
and very pleasantly for an amateur
performance.
Pinafore is as delightful as it is
old, and its tuneful ditties and catchy
music never fail to please. Under the
capable direction Of Mr.. Robinson
the choruses and other details went
off well.
The scenes were really very good
and some of the costuming was ex'
cellent and at times the stage effects
were quite affective. Later the As,
torian hopes to give a detailed ac,
count of the performance, and mean
time it is faint praise to say that the
rendition was very acceptable and
pleasing to the big crowd. The opera
will be given again tonight, and an
other crowd is expected. If you have
never heard Pinafore you should &c
to hear this old favorite, and for
those that have heard it this is time
when it should be heard again, Two
or three of the participants last nigh
were especially good, though severa
seemed to be not at their best be-
cause of timidity.

CURE IT IN ONE DAY.
Coughs and Colds Disappear Like

If the thousands Of people who

ply breathe in the soothing, pleasant
and antiseptic Hyomei air through
the little pocket inhaler that comes
with each outfit. As this medieatei
air passes over the inAamed parts,
relief comes almost at once, and

Mary E. Bennett, Peru, Ind,
writes: "T cannot speak too much

Acting Captain Brown Dashes
Hopes of Crowd by Threaten
ing Manager with Arrest.
"SERPENTINE," SUBSTITUTE,
FAR CRY FROM "SALOME"
Audience, Expecting Famous
Dance, Mutters Discomfort,
Calling Policemen Prudes.

"Salome," the famous Maud Allan
dance, was to have been given for
charity's sake at Electric Park, where
benefit of the German Hospital is in
progress, but Acting Captain Brown,
Of the Fourth Precinct, today prohibited
it. To an EVENING STAR reporter
the police captain said that he had been
told that the dance was not all that
1t should be.
Garcia, a nimble Spanish dancer, was
to have given "Salome," but substi-
tuted the "serpentine," a dance which
long since gained Loie Fuller fame and
dollars.
1t is a far cry from "Salome' to the
disappointed, many EXPLANATIONS being
directed against the alleged over-zeal-
Gus p%uritanical action of the police.
However, Garcia was given an ovation,
and handled her five yards of cloth
with all of the grace of the well-re-
membered La Loie. In "Salome' about
fourteen inches of gauze cloth is used.
The carnival committee raced an au-
tomobile to New York to secure the
"serpentine'' costume.
Acting Captain Brown visited Elec-
trio Park earlier in the day and had
the dance explained. In the evening a
roundsman and three policemen were at
the park, and Stage Manager Kirby
was told that if the dance was given
arrests would follow. The carnival COM
mittee made no effort to balk the po-
lice.
The biblical tale upon which the
dance Is founded is to the effect that
Salome, in love with John the Baptist,
danced before King Herod Antipas. The
object of her love was present and she
used all her power to fascinate him.
unsuccessfully. King Herod liked the
dance SO we'll that he told Salome she
could have anything in the Kingdom.
She asked for the head of John the
Baptist. The head was presented to
her on a silver platter. Salome finally
regrtes having caused the death of
John the Baptist, and dies insane.
+ Garcia Is a clever woman, intelligent
and attractive. To an EVENING STAR
reporter she said that Newark must be
over puritanical in not allowing such a
beautiful dance. Following is her
statement:
Il am dancing the dance of the flu
ture. Dances heretofore have simply
produced steps and noise upon the
boards. In 'Salome' by evolution, |
bring out all of the emotions. This is
the secret of the success and popular
ity of the dances of today. A great
actress conveys by speech the impress
sions which we give by dancing.
"Prudery. | must say, can nly be
held accountable for the stopping OF
the dance in Newark. There Is surely
nothing Objectionable in it, If we are to
consider the matter from a biblical
standpoint"
Garcia will remain in Newark for
a while, as she is not to open her New
York engagement until the last week In
August. Arrangements may be MADE
for a more extended engagement at
Electric Park.

of southern France, for example, the
stranger wandering among the fra
grant fields soon feels the same heavy
headache which a persistently objec-
tionable odor like that of a soap fac
tory is likely to produce. A lowering
of energy from any type of odor may
put the individual into a condition to
invite disease. but it little likely to be
the direct cause of %contagion. In the
case of the subway the odor came
chiefly from the smell of the trap rock
employed in the stone ballast of the
roadbed, mingled with lubricating oil
and gear grease, and combined with
occasional slight infusions of human
odor. Disagreeable as it might be when
long inhaled. there was no reason to
believe it dangerous.-Atlantic.

THE SUBWAY ODOR.

The belief in the injurious effects Of
the odor of the subway was a relic
the period when certain forms of
illness were supposed to be directly
connected with evil smells. With the
exception of the i'll effects which GER
tain gaseous compounds of sulphur and
carbon produce, there seems to be
scarcely any ground for relating dis
ease and evil odor. Constant exposure
to any smell, be 1t bad or good, is like
ly to produce nervous irritation and
exhaustion. On the great rose farms

The old stone house will be remem-
bered by many Newarkers, but the
oldest inhabitant could not tell a vet
eran reporter thirty-five years ago
when il was built. The house was
1Sx16 feet in size, had an old fashioned
cellar, with one floor and an attic
above. The only rooms We're the base
ment and the first floor. The old fire
iplace was a great feature. In 1t big
logs had been burned in Colonial times,
and it was so solidly constructed that
when the building was demolished
twenty-seven years ago the rkm
had much difficulty in breaking up the
fireplace. The foundation walls of the
house were nearly three feet thick, the
beams. cross-timbers and rafters We're
thick enough to support many tons, and
the doors, c%upboards and closets We're
made of very thick boards. James
Carr. a brother of Mrs. Gaffney, kept
a grocery next to the house. He
erected a fine building on the site of the
old house.
In Newark's Early Days.
When the father of Mrs. Gaffney
settled in Newark there were only
three other Irish-Catholic families in
the place. and Charles burning, father
of the late John c. Burning. was the
leader. They a no church. but a
priest came here from New York once
a week. and babies were carried by
the parents to old st. Peters Church in
Barclay street, New York, to be bap-
tised. and men and women often
walked to New York and back with
Belleville Catholics to attend mass.
This continued until 1924, when the CEN
trail third of st. Johns Church on
Mulberry street was built, and in time
a regular priest was installed, and
finally the Rev. Patrick Moran, who
became known as the Father Of
Catholics In Newark established a
school and a circulating library. parish
societies and drew the plans for st.
Patrick's Cathedral. Mrs. Gaffney had a
vivid recollection of her early days
and her memory was excellent up to
her death. She was one of the oldest
living Catholics born in Newark.
The survivors of Mrs. Gaffney's class
at the old Newark Academy are Mrs.
Sheehan (nee Sherlock, widow of the
late DIR. Sheehan, and former Judge

Mother Borton walked the passage

the blackness. Then l paused on the
threshold while she lighted candle;
and as l entered, she swiftly closed
and locked the door behind me.
"Sit down." she said in a harsh
voice. motioning me to chair by the
stand that held the candle. Then this
strange creature seated herself in
front of me, and looked steadily and
sternly in my face for full minute.
What have you done that l should
help you?- she broke forth in a harsh
voice, her eyes still fixed on my face.

litely. You have done me one or two
