A.QNE3 WALLACE VILLA.
Every lover of pure and wholesome
drama liberally interspersed with I
comedy, songs and dances throughout,
should not fail to see Agnes Wallace
Villa, in the greatest of all dramas in
"The World Against Her" at the
Opera House on next Friday evening
Oct. 29th. This play is regarded as
one ot the strongest now Deiore me
Enclish-speakinn public. It is full of
action all the incidents are stirring,
the language is vigorous, the charac
ter sketches are vivid and each climax
is ingeniously contrived and thor
oughly effective. The plot is decid
edly absorbing and, as worked out in
incidents, situations and dialogue ap-
peals strongly to the sympathies of
men and women alike, exciting the
purest emotions of human nature,
A large number of up to-date
specialties are introduced throughout
the five acts to give it a liberal quan
tum of fun.
Miss Vilto, regarded as one' of the
foremost of emotional actresses, who
aoDears as Madne Carlton, has the
support ot a strong company of 15
c ever artists. A clever feature in
this cast is Baby Cerrette but 3 years
of ae. A clever actress, also Little
Vashti in her picturesque dances.
Don't miss this intensely exciting
drama.

Thomas Oswald, of Baltimore, whom
the police branded as a notorious
crook, killed himself in the act of com
mitting a burglary at Etna, Pa., Satur
day night. He limmieu open the
door of Jacob Blumling's shoe store,
on Bridge street, and the opening ot
the door pulled a string that discharg
ed a gun loaded with buckshot and
set as a trap for just such an oc
casion. The victim received the entire
charge in his groin, and died soon
afterward without saying a word
about himself or his crime. A satchel
that he car.iea contained an assort
ment of skeleton keys and other be
longings of burglars.
A Republican circular says that the
state of Pennsylvania has not lost a
dollar, by reason of the default or mis
management of a state treasurer,
since 1840. What do the people know
as to what may have been lost by such
default or mismanagement since the
treasury has been in machine Repub
lican hands? Leading Republicans
openly allege that much of the treas
ury assets are traudulent ana worth
less, and nobody can get at the books.
Nobody ever will until the machine is
voted out.
The Republicans have assumed the
defensive. They are seeking to explain
the treasury steals. Their theory is
that a? the state grows the cost of run
ning it grows. But not, Messrs. Repub
licans, because of that growth. The
growth will not account for the differ
ence between $30,000,000, tne cost
of Pattison's first term, and $48,000,
000, the cost of Hastings' term.
It is an evidence of weakness that
the Republicans are lugging in the
tariff and the money question to save
