Opera llouaa.
McKee Rankin and his own company
direct from Niblo’s theatre, will appear
in the Opera House this evening in the
society drama ”The Runaway Wife."
which has been drawing such crowded
houses at Niblo' 11. The Chicago Harald
says among other things of the drama:
“The plot is simple, which is manifestly
a point in its favor, and there is pervad-
ing the story a quiet human Interest,
touched with pathos, which reaches the
heart without taking the trouble to ask
consent of the intellect. There is no
special intellectuality in a brief chapter
from human life. There is feeling, but
no desperate show of speculative philoso-
phy or of analytical pcdant. "

and sec l’st Rooney '11 excellent company.
The Buffalo Times says: “A genuine

Rooney exhibit his pet collection of Hi-
bernianisms. The orchestra was crowd~
ed, the first circle was crowded. the gal-
‘ lerics were crowded. every chair was
taken and every hit of floor sustained its
standing man or woman. V'ery early in
the evening the old sign ‘standing room
only” was hung on the outer wall. Strange
to say ’l’at Rooney' is not the name of
the play but the name of the star, the
piece being ‘l’al‘s Wardrobe,‘ a most
amusing comedy. Mr. Rooney seems to
have improved every time he appears and
yet every time he appears it would seem
there is no room for improvement. His
lri-hisms are funnier than ever, and his
‘wnrdrobt simply immense."

about to make application to the legis-

in Norwalk, :1 Scanner. reporter has
made inquiries. and found out, and been
given liberty to tell the public. Mr.
Allen is president of the Fonymnd

Yew York, and his associates in the
Norwalk project are (T. D. Wyman. vice
presidcnt of the [Mt Line road of New
York, and John M. Calhoun general
manager of the same road. These gen-
tlemen mean that if they get a charter
to build the road at once. They are not
after a charter to keep someone else
from getting one but mean business.
”Cap" Reynolds Does not like M In

"Cap" Reynolds, who works in Taylor

went around the store all day Saturday
sniffing the air and looking for some-
thing which he said smelled horrible.
The boys in the store said they could not
smell anything and laughed at ”Cam”
who still kept on hunting for something
dead in the store. “Cap" took off his bat
in the afternoon and was greeted with a
horrible stench. and upon investigating
the hat found a nice little piece of lim-
burger cheese stowed under the sweat
leather. ' "Cup" was mad and walked to
the backdoor and threw the bat into the
river. Some of the boys in the store put
the cheese in the hat, but they have not
owned up to ”Cap" which one it was.
and for their own sakes will probably
keep the'secrct.

OPEN LETTERI-
Tbnt hlabtu ksuio Window
bitum- Saarinen—A writer in last
Saturday's Republican has been giving
points to our young, middle-aged and
elderly citizens how to select sweethearts
and wives from the hosts of prettv girls,
bath native born and immigrants from
outside towns, that find occupation here;
and doubtless is correct in saying that
there are legions of them. The writers
advice would be wall enough were it not
for the lottery described. Just how out-
siders, not holding monthly tickets of
the most sought for class of pretty girls,
is to proceed if in his watch from the
hotel window he selects one of the
monthly drawn ones, is not explained.
Would it not bea good plan for those
who have been drawn in the lottery for
a months time to wears badge to indi-
cate ashort term of prior engagement?
At any rate, if the writer's suggestion is
generally acted upon, seats in that win-
dow, where a twilight view of the pause
lug throng of beauties can be had, will
bring fabulous prices. In view of the
Republicsn‘s communication may we
not. expect that the pretty girls will now
don their most taking habiliments, use
the most effective face powder, the late-.1
style of hustle. and generally get them-
selves up in taking array for the inspec-
tion of the occupants of that hotel office
window? 1).

euchered out of a barrel of cider. By
his story Chief Hagan at once identifich
the person of whom he complained as
Lewis Corr, who is said to have worked
a similar game once before. Carroll was
driving into the Center by way of Sco-
vill street. When near the corner of
Spring street he was accosted by the
man, who asked him the price of his
cider and finally struck a bargain for the
barrel for 85.50. gThen looking at pota-
toes which also comprised a portion of
the farmer’s load, he inquired the price
and finally bought five bushels at sixty
centsa bushel. He told Carroll to do
liver the potatoes at his house after de-
positing thc barrel of cider upon the side-
walk and added that on his return he
would pay him. Carroll did as he was
told and on his rclum found money and
cider both gone. Chief Hagan could do
nothing for the man and at last accounts
the Bethlehemite was looking for his
victimizer.
