EVERYBODY

Decidedly one of the most enjoy
able, most elaborate, most satisfac-
tory and dazzling performances seen
at the Park opera house in years was
the musical and spectacular jangle,
The Cat and the Fiddle" with
Charles A. Sellon starring as the
chief funmaker in the part of Happy.
the Tramp, with Lawrence Gothard,
impersonating the Cat, and with Jen-
ME Ell More and Mamie Ell More. two
of the daintiest, cleverest little COM
ediannes seen on the local stage in
many moons, sharing honors with
Sellon. Supporting these fun makers
was big company of very able en-
tertainers and a beyy of handsome
and graceful girls.
The chief characteristic of the jolly
show is it's wonderful and gorgeous
scenery. its scores and scores of trick
features, mechanical effects and
beautiful costumes. There were nine
teen different scenes and each one
was revelation of beauty. The rap
idity with which the scenes were
changed, in view of the limited space
of the Park opera house stage, was
| remarkable.
There was something doing every
i moment during the course of the
three long acts. Surprises that con-
vulsed everybody with laughter were
sprung every few seconds. Some of
the illusions and movements of trick
scenery were mystifying to pro-
nounced extent.
The song numbers. comedy fea-
lures, original specialities, burlesq-
ues, dances, and stage pictures, were
refreshing and original. The deck
of the ship Diana, the scene of the
ship wreck, the ocean effect produced
| for the song number, Under the
Waves" the Street in Eye Land. and
were among the most magnificent
scenic effects and stage settings ever
, seen here.
THE Cat and the Fiddle is richer
in comedy than in singing. Some of
the song numbers were very clever
| but the chorus is not anything out of
the ordinary when it comes to sing
ing. The grand opera burlesque by
the Ell More sisters was the great
| singing hit of the performance.
] 1t was tip top show from begin
ming to end, entertaining as very few
comedy and musical mixups up do.
1t is out of the ordinary in most ev-
cry way.
ulated upon the splendid offering he
had for his patrons last night.

Skies "The Squaw Man" and other
beautiful high grade comedy dramas,

ALL DEPENDS ON
MIR. STORK'S WORK
lspecial { to The sentinel. }

Paris, Oct 23.=Whether the
Duchess de Chaulnes, who was Miss
Theodore Shonts, will maintain her
position among the titled aristocrats
of France. or be cast into the outer
darkness reserved for bourgeois COM
monees. depends entirely upon the
sex of the child expected to be born
to her within a few weeks. If the
stork brings a boy, he will inherit
the title and estates of his dead faith
er. If the bird brings a girl, then
the mother will be deprived of her
title. which will pass to the family of
the Due de Luynes.
The duchess is still living in the
beautiful apartment where she and
her noble husband spent the first
months of their married life, and
where the young duke expired in the
arms of his wife. Here the postum
nous child will be born.

TREATMENT OF UNION MEN
BY REPUBLICAN LEADERS

The Bethlehem Steel company
of which George II. Sheldon,
treasurer of the Republican ma
tional committee is one of the
controlling directors, has Il labor
record worse than that of any
corporation in the state of
Pennsylvania. For years union
men have avoided the plant as
they would n plague.
This corporation not only refuses
to employ union man but it resorts
to the disreputable practice of paying
employees to spy upon their fellows.
The Republics correspondent at
Allentown, Pa, who was asked to
investigate the methods employed by
the Bethlehem Steel company's plant
made this report:
The Bethlehem Steel company
has always opposed organized labor
and the organization of it's employees.
The result is that the conditions pre-
vailing at the plant are very bad so
far as the men are concerned
The company has employees who
receive a little extra pay for acting
as spies and informing the CON any
whenever there is any move cnt
among the men to organize. These
spies furnish the company with the
names of the men who are sup ed
to be leaders in the movement and
i these men are promptly discha ged.
Several times in the last fifteen
! years the men have organized only
ito be discharged one by one until
every union man in the plant is dis
posed of.
| THE company will not hire a
union man. There have been a great
many instances where the company
1 has employed union men not know
ling them to be such. These union
men never worked long. AS soon as
the hired spies found out that mar
carried a union card. the fact was re-
ported to the company and the unior
man was discharged.
THE company's orders are that ne
union man shall be allowed on the
premises.
Appeals have been made many
times to the directing owners of the
company. including George r. Shell
don. for better treatment for the mer
employed. but these appeals usually
were followed by the discharge ot
men concerned in the movement"
This is the record of only one Of
Sheldon's many corporations. Is Il
any wonder, then, that with such mer
as Sheldon in control of the Repub
lican party the representatives of or
| ganized labor were kicked out of the
Republican convention? - Buffalo
