BON TONS "A BURLESQUE COMIC
SUPPL EMENT" AT WALDMANN'S

Edward +. Rush calls his new Bon
Tons a burlesque comic supplement. and
fairly well describes 1t. The Bon
Tons is really a smashing show-it is
a loud show in the sense Of attacking
both the ear and the eye, every minute
the curtain is UP. There is a song for
every incident; every line. almost every
one of them, has swing and dash.
Mr.. Rush has been generous with his
scenery; lavish would be a better word.
There are no less than ten scenes. to
say nothing of the s~pecialties and now
elites introduced from time to time.
James ]. Lake, James Rowland, Pete
Kelly, Michael Feely inc Arthur Heller
are the principal fun-makers.
Fannie st. Clair Is genuinely funny
and sings songs that catch the house;
she is worth her weight in gold; and
with Fannie Thatcher, the statuesque
blonde. adds lustre to the class known

bunch of damsels known to the gallery
gods as the Jewels OF beauty from Lob
ster square. In the olio the Dunedin

ADVICE FOR
THOSE WHO MAIL
CHRISTMAS GIFTS
Postmaster Hays Defines a Few
Rules for Holiday
Observers.

Those Christmas presents you are
about to mail to 'sweethearts and
others out of town will get to where
you start them for much surer, quicker
and more generally intact If you take
to heart some of this good advice which
Postmaster Hays puts forth for guild
ance today.
At the very outset you should address
your packages to the street and num-
Der of their destination wherever pos
sible. and you should write plainly
your own address in another corner
SO the gift will come back to o If it
cannot be delivered. Half the pack
ages that go astray do 80 because they
aren't tied firmly enough to keep the
wrapper on; a good many more turn up
missing because the sende has an
closed something like a lady's watch
In a shoe box, so that the watch pounds
its way through the pasteboard and is
lost, of course, enroute.
You should remember, also. that
while you have a right to incribe
Merry Christmas or Happy New
Year on the wrapper of a package. you
may not write a Christmas carol there.
even If there seems to be plenty of
room. And if o write anything what
soever on the inside of that package
you are liable t. q fine of $40.
II you mail postcards In transparent
packages, addressed on the inside, you
must leave a three-inch opening in the
envelope for cancellation Of the poste-
card stamp, or else stamp the outside
envelope at first-class mall rates to
mailing your Christmas gifts. The
postmaster nearly sheds tears in the
earnestness of his subjurgation to mail
them early and not wait until Christ
mas eve You Will make him happier
also IL you post them in the daytime,
whenever possible, and he will be over
joyed If 0 have the amount OF post
age In your hand when o go TO buy
the stamps. After a week from Sunday
there will pc extra clerks to weigh
packages for you in the corridors and
extra stamp windows to provide for the
inevitable crush.

TT HE Lily" the most powerful
and the most thrilling drama

II" HE Lily" the most powerful
n the most thrilling drama
of recent years, comes to the
Newark Theatre for an engagement Of
n week only beginning next Monday
evening, December u, after its all last
seasons run In New York and almost
direct from a renewal OF that engage
ment this season.
David Belasco. in mis- adaptation OF
'The Lily. from the French of Pierre
Wolff and CASTOR Leroux. offers to
American theatre-goers a play dealing
with the great universal human desire
TO love and be loved. the intense wom-
anly longing to be able not only to love,
but to declare that love openly In the
hearing Of all men and angels. All this
Mr.. Belasco does in The Lily" all
this, and more, too; for so successful
has his work been that he has sue
ceeded In eliminating all evidence Of
1.-THE Lily's'' French origin, and made
It as clean and pure as a sermon; for
that matter. as the very flower for
which the drama was named.
The theme of "The Lily" is as sim
pie as it is universal, it being lone
other than the call of each and every
AluIlldu DE4Al6 ~ lAN6 OhA Ills VI NC WI II
life, to live it to the lees, to walk the
path of happiness with the man, with
the woman. of ones own choosing, INC
the right TO walk that path openly
1nafraid. and proud in the eyes Of all
the world.
This appeal rings out through all the
four intensely dramatic acts which go
TO the construction Of the latest Be
iasco drama. From the moment the
curtain rises upon the scene of the
ruined abbey until IT falls upon the
faded grandeur Of the de Maigny
salon, we hear the fierce, resentful cry
Of the one individual woman sacrificed
TO the larger needs of ali women; in
other words. of society at large. The
Idly's" dominating note Is the agony
Of a woman, pure. chaste, beautiful of
heart and soul, whose y~earnings for
love, for homo and children have been
strangled through no fault or
choice of her own, and are now treas
ured in memory like faded letters or
wfthered flowers laid away In some
secret drawer. The cry Of THE Lily >
is womanhood cheated of It's primal
due; nature robbed OF her primal inn
pulse.
This will be the only opportunity
this ason for the patrons Of the
Newark Theatre to see Mr.. Belasco's
most famous company headed by tho
favorites. Nance O'Neii, Charles Cart
wright, Julia Dean. Oscar Eagle, Alfred
Hickman, Elliot Dexter, William c..
Holden. Douglas Paterson, Robert
Robson, NJ. Rossi, s. G. Norsetup, An
toinette Walker and Ethel Grey Terry.
The engagement will include the usual
matinees.

luton in Common Council calling upor
the city counsel to prepare a petition
to be sent to the Interstate Commerce
Commission requesting the Pennsyl-
vania railroad to answer the charge OF
having established an unjust and dis
criminatory rate between Newark and
New York.
The resolution which was introduced
last night had reference to the nifty
cen excursion fare over the so-called
short line and calls upon the company
to desist from violating the provisions
of the interstate act.
Alderman MCGOWAN said that as the
whole subject of rate Increase would
come up at the next session of the
Legislature he would advise including
all the railroads in the resolution. 1t
was pointed out that this was a specific
case and the resolution was adopted
as originally introduced after Mr.. Nc
Gowan withdrew his amendment.
Approve Salary Increases.
The salary increases agreed upon by
the nance committee On Wednesday
night were approved by the Council.
The case of the clerks in the city
clerks office was not acted upon, but
will be taken up at an adjourned meet
ing to be held next Friday night.
At the same time the salaries of
city officers which are fixed by ordi-
nfnce will be increased, the new or
dinances being passed asst night on
first and second reading.
The men affected by these ordinances
are Thomas Rowe, market clerk, who
is raised from ST. 100 to $2,400 a year;
Charles Lemmermeier, the assistant
clerk, who will get 1900 instead of
81, 500, and the market police. Who will

The electrical inspector and smoke in
spector will also share in the increases
John Sullivan, city sealer OF weights
and measures, will be raised to s1.50o
a year., and Patrick Cauf1eld, assist
ant sealer, will be advanced to 81, 320.
Important Measures Advanced.
Three important measures were adj
vanced to third reading and final
passage, and 1t is not expected that
anything will intervene to prevent their
adoption next week.
They are the new building code, the
fire prevention code and the revised
weights and measures ordinance.
The appointment of an almshouse SUI
p~erintendent was passed over until
next week, which IS the last oppor.
tunity the Council viii have. There is
still a deadlock over the situation.
