TRAVELLED 1000 MILES
..s TO GET 100 MILES.

New York, Sept. Sowing to
the prevalence of the plague in

antine regulations it was found
necessary by Pedro Alvarez, an
attache OF the Columbian con-
sulate at Willemstad, Curacao,
who was visiting in Caracas,
and who wished to return to his
post in Curacao, to take steam
ship from La Guayra to New
York and thence to his post,

TO STAGE LITTLE
BROTHER OF RICH"

New York, Sept. s.--"A Lit
tie Brother OF the Rich" is to
make his bow in Broadway
playhouse. Liebler e. Co. out
maneuvered Chas. B. Dillingham;,
who was also after the dramatic
rights of Jos. Medill Patterson's
novel, and has closed deal
which will result in the presen-
tation of the society scourge.
There is considerable specuia
tion as to what actors can be
signed, as the book excoriates
the dramatic profession, and al
leges that immortality is one of
the principal avenues to success
on the stage.
