A good bill is that at the Majestic
theatre this week, and while some o.
the acts are remarkable for their exec
lence, all are of more than ordinary
cleverness, and interest holds wei
throughout the performance. AS US.

dancing is fair. Her imitation of a T.
year-old speaking a piece is first
class
Lipman and Lewis are quite good
Their dialogue is funny and at times
hilarious. Their singing is as good as
is usually seen in this class of stunt
even better perhaps. The imitation
trombone is the best of their work.
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank K. Wallace in
"a Night in Old Heidelberg" present a
one act farce comedy that closes the
bill in nice shape. Both are clever
and appear well on the stage.

crudt steamboat and set forth up the
Hudson. The vessel was called the
Clermont by it's inventor, but the peo-
pie referred to it as "Fulton's Folly
Today the inventor is hailed as "the
father of steamboating' and although

tous trip has passed almost unnoticed,

national celebration in honor of his
memory
A replica of the little steamboat in
which Fulton made his first trip has
been completed and will be promi-
nently displayed during the Hudson
Fulton celebration, which begins in

up and down, and both ends are wedge
shaped. 1t will be equipped with a

Thursday night with a banquet and
reunion lovefeast" at the Claypool. All
of the hotels of the city will join in
entertaining the delegates during their
stay here
The following statement in regard
to the proposed school was given out
today:
1T is in the subscribing, literally
to the building fund and the purchas-
ing of scholarships. that hotel proprie-
tors and managers can do more good,
at the present time, than in any other
way. Their moral support is also de-
sired, but that will not go far towards
getting one brick laid on top of an
other The proposition has reached
that stage where the action taken in
this weeks convention will definitely
determine whether the school is to be
started and built on a scale that will
make it, from the beginning, what it
should be- an institution in every way
worthy of the interests which it will
represent or a sort of common affair at
which young men may be trained in
the elementary principles of steward
ing and working in dining rooms and
kitchens
