MADAME x"
Famous Play to Be Given
 In New York Feb. 20

Madam X'', the impressive drama by Alexandra Bisson that so thrilled all Paris, will be given it's metropolitan premiere at the New Amsterdam Thea tre, New York, on Wednesday even ing, Feb. 2. Henry w. Savage is the producing manager and the cast is one of the most brilliant in years, the ros- ter comprising Dorothy Donnelly Will liam Elliott, Robert Drouet, Malcolm Williams, W. H. Denny, John Mckee, Harry c. Bradley. Charles B. Werner, Frank Wright, Christine Blessing, Mary Mallon and many other players of high rank.
 Not since the days when Clara Mor- ris, in America and '.the divine Sarah Bernhardt, in France. so moved the hearts of their auditors. has play been greeted as has Madame x." In dramatic thrill tragic force and sym pathetic appeal this drama of a moth er's love has justly been put even a step ahead of such works as Article 47'', Camille, and East Lynne" Its tense realism and wonderful fidelity to truth set it apart as a veritable mas terpiece of S@,kind .s tG-7.t l,sf sL 5a. .g 2

FIGHT RENEWED AGAINST ODIOUS
 WATER CONTRACT.

The Board of Apportionment which 1as continued to keep the 20 year wa ter contract alive every year despite the protests of the aldermen, elected by the people will be asked again this year not to appropriate the $12,- 500 which the city pays the Bridge port Hydraulic Go. every year for fire hydrants.
 I Alderman D. E. O'Neill presented a resolution to the Common Council, last night, that the mayor appoint three aldermen to appear before the Board of Apportionnent and request that the appropriation for hydrants be not added to the lists this year. Unanimous consent was asked for the passage of the resolution, but Alder men Bullard and Gould were on their feet in an instant to protest against unanimous consent and the measure was referred to the committee on Miscellaneous matters.

PLEASING BILL AT POLPS AND
 CLEVER SINGERS.

A very large audience saw "The 2Oth Century" at Polls, last night. A score or more of clever people present ed medley of song, dance and dia- logue that was clean, pretty and anus ing. The act was wonderfully well staged and the performers keep nov ing. One surprise follows another un- til the listeners think nothing can pos sbly remain to be done. Nevertheless the climax is the most marvellous thing of all. The members of the company are seen from the rear end of an ob- servatiOn car attached to a train which, appears to- be moving rapidly through richly scenic country, now through rolling table lands and anon through canyons and great gorges. The scene is a, contrivance of moving pie lures and stationary setting repre- sentlng the rear of a train, but the eff feet is most realistic.
 The leading players are Jack Hug ger, Monti Brooks, Al Sykes and J. E. Duncan, who represent, in the order named. Susia Spooner, Jack Hugger, Constable Wilkin and Joe Jimson Su- sic and Jack desire to wed. The con- stable has been ordered by stern par ent to arrest the bridegroom. Jimson is a friend of the lovers, a real "rube." ," Then there is a chorus of six males and six females. The male chorus is well costuH1ed and has apparently been selected for the various styles of man. ly beauty it presents. The female chorus is even classier. The wedding takes place, the stern parent is de- feated and the wicked constable is brought to confusion, to the delight of everybody. What more can a vau- deville audience possibly demand.
 The other attractions were good, but possibly Lyons and Yasco succeeded in getting most enthusiasm from the au- dience. They are delightful singers The harpist of the combination is tal- ented. It is doubtful, however, if their act is strengthened by two or three vu1garities injected into it. mo- tably the exclamation "Oh, you kid.'' There may have been a time when this remark was funny, but it now happens that an audience gets it two Or three times in an average perform ance, and are very, very tired of it. The manager who puts up a sign pro hibitlng the use of the expression will undoubtedly earn the unanimous thanks of his fellow citizens. Such accomplished performers as Lyons and Nasco do not need the phrase at all.
 AS study in feminine charms, in costuming, or as competent juggler, Selma Bratz may be commended. She is billed as "Europe's foremost girl juggler.'' Probably this is not too strong a statement.
 The Holdsworths banjoists, singers and dancers, also made decided hit The man is an accomplished actor, and both are accomplished banjoists. J. c. Nugent & Company gave a playlet called "The Rounder" in a highly sat isfactory manner. Dennis Brothers did a turn upon revolving pole which must have been preceded by a long and severe course of training

|IN THE THEATRES
JACKSON'S
Sheedy and Jackson's Vaudeville.

A convincing quality of excellence lis always to be found in the splendid vaudeville bills which are being pre- fsented at Jackson's theatre, and the sprogram which Manager Jackson is Eoffering for the first three days of Ethis week marks no exception from Ethat rule. The headliner of the cur Trent bill is one of the most pleasing Sand at the same time the most dis Etinctly novel comedy playlet that has &presented by. those immensely popu- @ar loyal favorites, Nichols and CroiX, Aboth entertainers of note. Croix is ;an original comedian, with a style all :. his own and his delineation of the l, t'slangy'@ theatre property man is one 'iof the best bits of character work
 ever conceived. Miss Nichols pre- 4sents an attractive appearance and is the possessor of a rich and beautiful soprano voice, although suffering
 from cold, she uses it to good ad-
 vantage. Dainty Gladys Van has in
 stalled herself a great favorite with ' local vaudevillians. Miss Van is eX- l ceptionally good looking and possess es breezy and magnetic personality I and her songs which are of popular fvariety are sung in a greatly pleasing : style. Miss Van is certainly versatile in her accomplishments, for besides
 having a splendid voice, she is an
 artful commedienne and her mono
 logue is filled with brilliant comedy.
 No cleverer equilibrist than Youna
 has ever appeared in this city. His
 tricks are all of a unique and difficult
 order and are executed with an ease
 and abandon that is amazing. Niblo
 and Reilly present a pleasing comedy
 sketch. in which clever eccentric
 dancing speciality is introduced. The
 pictures which are changed every day
 comprise nothing but the latest and
 most interesting subjects. For the
 last three days of this week Manager
 Jackson announces a complete change
 of the vaudeville program with the
 we'll known team of pantominic com
 edians, Sylvan and O'Neal, presenting
 their latest absurdity Fun at the Sea
 Shore" as the headliner.

GIBBONS PROTESTS
 AGAINST HIGH FOOD PRICES

Washington, Jan. 18.-"Most of the prices for food products are clearly out of all reason," said Cardinal Gib- bons last night, ''and the people can not go on paying such prices when they are not earning more than they were some years ago when prices were not so high"
 The Cardinal was unable to assign a reason for the high prices that pre- vail, but he said something evidently is wrong when many of the common est necessities in foods are priced at such enormous figures"
 Something must be done soon,' said the Cardinal, ito put the prices of food on reasonable basis, and any method which will bring this about indorse."

MADE FRU|TLESS FIGHT
with Whips on Account of Wash
woman Who Loves Plumber.

Especial Cable to neutrality-suspicious.. }
Paris, April 30--Two cab drivers,
Jean Thibault and Pierre Roux. who
occupied the same stand in the BouIe-
ward des Batignolles and had been on
excellent terms. quarreled last week
on making the hapless discovery that
they were in love with the same wash
woman.
Neither of them had proposed to Ma
RE Hamard, the all-unconscioUS object
of their affections, and they decided to
fight the matter out to settle who had
the better claim before either of them
approached the object of their affec-
ton.
A combat took place in quiet street.
1t was duel on totally novel lines.
There were no seconds and the weapons
used were whips, with which the COM
batants mercilessly dashed each other.
They were exhausted and bathed in
blood when a policeman arrived on the
scene and took them to the police sta
ton Yesterday morning they were
dismissed with a caution, and happily
their enmity has been again turned to
friendship, for the washwoman, on
hearing of their story, fastened to
their cab stand, where she expressed
her regret at having caused the trouble
and added that she had already been
engaged for some time TO a plumber.
