called attention of the general public

NJ. Wins, who is coaching Willie
Hearst, threw one of his penetrating
verbal missels, that proved that Gay

GREAT PLAY COMING.
The Lyric Theatre Should Be Crowd.
ed to See the "Isle of Spice"

The Lyric Theatre Should Be Crowd
ed to See the isle of Spice"
When Allen Lowe and George E.
Stoddard wrote the book and lyrics
of the Isle Of Spice," which will ap-
pear at the Lyric on Monday, Oct.
25, they laid the scene of their clev-
er story on an island in the Japan
Sea, where all sorts of funny things
are likely to happen. Very shortly
after the opening of the piece they
do. There is the funniest kind of a
king with desire to reform things.
which to him means simply to change
the existing laws. He has a beau
tiful ward, Teresa, who has receiv-
ed an American education and de-
sires to have a young lieutenant
of Uncle Sans marines thrown in
for good measure.
The king, who accumulates wives,
as the average American boy does
marbles, desires to wed his ward,
but there is a law which makes it
necessary for his betrothed to first
spend years of her life in the tomb
OF silence" While his majesty is
endeavoring to devise ways and
means of keeping his ward from this
ordeal, an Irishman and a Scotch
man, who have deserted from the
U. S. navy in balloon are precipi-
tated into the midst of his cogita-
tions, and he gives them the choice
of taking her place in the tomb or
being beheaded. They choose the
former, but the scheming court
treasurer, who wants Teresa out of
the way, liberates them and intro
duces the pair to the king as a not
ed magician and astrologer. The
story is set to music of that de-
lightfully refreshing kind by Paul
SCHNEIDER and Ben. Nj. Jerome.

government disbursements. 1t is to
have branches in each city where
there is a sub-treasury replacing them
and In such other cities is necessary
to give adequate services to all parts
of the country.
The central bank is to issue its
own notes which as the present u.
S. bond-secured National bank cir
culation is retired are gradually to
supplant them. Central notes are to
be secured by large gold reserve
and by gilt edged commercial credit
or paper representing actual trans
actions in business between solvent
concerns. 1t is argued that this will
ensue elasticity by the notes tc be
issued by the bank in times of strin-
gency and would automatically con-
tract and be retired from circulation
when the transaction creating the
credit had been completed and the
credit paid.

science has been able to cure in all
its stages, and that is Catarrh.
Halls Catarrh Cure is the only posi-

constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease. and giving the patient
strength by building up the consti-

The Quay Statue.

The Quay statue, which has been
in the lime light for some time, has
at last reached it's last resting place.
1t would have brought tears to the
eyes of the staunchest of the Old
Guard to have seen the motley crowd
of workmen who handled this statue
from the railroad depot to the niche
where it now rests in the majesty of
its lonesomeness. The workingmen
evidently were all stony hearted
Democrats with a few conscienceless
Republicans; armed with crow bars,
rolling pins and ropes enough to
hang a dozen men, they pounced
down upon the statue of the once
peerless leader and with clenched
teeth and unmuttered curses they
pushed and showed, dragged and
hauled this resemblance of the de-
parted chief until at last they had it
where 1t can only look down in 81
lence upon those who coveted the
smile of the one it represents. For
tunately some lover of his beauti-
ful and good deeds, had soaked the
statue in arnica and bound it about
with bandages so that the jolting
and rough treatment it received did
not mar it, and when its outer cloth
ing of bandages were removed, that
same old placid look overtopped with
the dropping eyelids was there, to
bring the blush of shame to the
many who objected to its being plac-
ed in position where 1t can be seen
by the vast horde of unregenerate
and degenerate sycophants who
might have to view 1t. There is
some talk of the Disconsolates trying
to get an act passed making the an
niversary of the day this statue was
unveiled a day of fasting and gnash-
ing of teeth.

The Citizen some months ago ad-
vocated the formation in this borough
of Civic Club in which every citi-
zen would have the right of member
ship. At the meetings of the Club
all questions bearing upon the pub
lie welfare of the borough could be
discussed with a view of getting the
pulse of public opinion on any sub
ject which has a bearing upon our
civic life. Puplic heart to heart
talks upon public affairs would be
beneficial to all interested and would
be a means of guidance to those
whom we elect to Office and let
shoulder our burdens while we oft
times act as critics and in most in
stances ungenerously so through ig-
norance. If ten or more citizens in
sympathy with this movement will
send postal to this office a meeting
could be arranged to inaugurate the
same.

NEWSPAPER OFFICE ON STAGE.
Fourth Estate Depicted in Play by
j. NJ. Patterson

j. NJ. Patterson.
At last "a newspaper play that
presents the workings and atmos-
phere of a newspaper Office with
wonderful fidelity, has been given
to the stage in THE Fourth Estate"
the joint product of Joseph Medill
Patterson, son of the proprietor of
the Chicago Tribune, and Harriet
Ford.
The stage picture is drawn with
such truthfulness that in the thrill
ing last act, showing the composing
room of a great newspaper in full
blast, battery of six linotypes is
operated by members of Topographic
cal Union No. 6 or big Six" This
and other scenes created furores of
enthusiasm.
Young Patterson is a man of well
known socialistic tendencies and it
is not surprising that the Fourth
Estate" should center in a muck
raking episode, which seeks to show
the assumed venality of the present
day newspapers and the impossible
ity of editor hewing strictly to the
line of duty.
Naturally the newspaper criticisms
of the play attack this feature,
charging that the authors argue
general corruption from a specific
case. All criticisms, however, agree
that aside from certain crudities of
the amateur playwright, the play is
powerful and appealing.
