1 Twice In the course of DeMllle and Be
lasco's remarkable play, "Men and Wo
men," is the lesson of charity taught. The
spirit of the Lord's words to Mary Magda
len, "Go and sin no more," is emphasized
in the history of Stephen Rodman, and In
the fate of 'William Prescott, the central
figure of the drama if any one figure may
be railed central where several are so
nearly of equal importance. "Men and
Women" is at once a fine sermon againBt
speculation, showing its folly is well as
its dangers, and a plea for charity to men
who have been much tempted. It is cer
tainly a great attraction and will be pre

"Jane," the mirth-provoking comedy
which will be seen at the Frotbtngbam
Saturday afternoon and evening under the
management of Gustavo Frobman, de
pends upon its situations very largely for
the laughter it occasions, and of these sit
uations there is certainly an abundance.
The dialogue has had the advantage of
repeated polishing, beginning with its
original French version, with its British
adaptation, and finally with the American
. approbation. A characteristic feature of
the Frentb manuscript, of coarse, is the
dialogue, which the English has to discard
almost in toto, and what the Britons sub
stituted the Americans were forced to
ihoronghly overhaul and brighten np. It

Augustus Pitou has done som.i very
creditable things as a dramatio m inager
in the large sense of a man who conceives
and executes distinct and lndividui 1 plans
for stage representations. Next Monday
night the melodramatic play, "The Power
of the Press," will be seen here This
piece was written by Mr. Pitou and George
JessoD. It teaches a lesson in human na
ture which appeals to the hearts of the au
dience and elicits mnch warm approval.
It will be staged in the same liberal man
ner as when seen here last season, wuen
it had a a most successful run. playing to
large audiences during the entire week.

Report of Expert LaRua to Common Council
Last Night .
RESOLUTION PASSED FOR BIDS
Mr. LaRue Advocates Liberal Adver
tising for Bids He Says the Bridges
Will Be Splendid Structures Fun
Over a Paving Contract Big List
of Ordinances and Resolutions That
Were Approved. '
Connoilman Hickey ushered in a busy
meeting of the common council last
nigbt with a motion to dispense with
reading the minutes. For two hours
tbe air of tbe chamber was as fraught
with. business as the air is with flikes
in a snow storm.
Expert Engineer Larue submitted
his report on the bridges. He S lid tbat
tbe length of time required for tbe ex
amination was due to tbe fact tbat the
structures were large and to tbt condi
tion of the plans and speclnuatlons
when snbmitted to mm.
Tbe plans in both cases were found
to represent very sabstentlal and
creditable structures, but they were
found Incomplete and in some respests
fanlty In detail, but tbey have been
male complete. Proposals for tbs
structures can now be received.
On account of the unusually great
stance between the trusses of both
irldges and tbe small amount of depth
available for tbe fliot systems, a de
il cture may occur daring tbe passage
of heavy loads, and this will be true
inorelso of tho Koaring brook bridg".
The tendency to deflect, however, will
tie largely offset by the deadload of tbs
trncturee.
Tne deflection, however, will not in
dicate any lack of strength.' Tbe re
port reoommended that the superstruc
tures be advertised for at least three
weeks, and tbat copies of the plans and
printed copies of tbe specifications be
furnished to all reputable firms re
quiring tbe same. The report was ac
cepted and plaoed on hie.
Tbe following resolution wss intro
duced and passed unanimously:
PROPOSALS FOR THE BlilDCIES.
That tbe city cleric be directed to ad
vertise for sealed proposals for tbe con
struction of substructures and super
structure of the Linden street and
Pittston avenue bridges, and tbat the
bidders shall bid upon tbe plans and
specifications as revised under the di
rection of Benjamin Larue, bridge ex
aminer. This commnniottion from Mayor
Connell was received, and a resolution
covering the suggestions wss p;iR8a.
I herewith submit for your considera
tion the deed of J. C. Piatt heirs, to tbe
city of Scranton, conveying the plot of
land to be used as an approach to the
Roaring brook bridge. The conditions of
tbe deed are In conformity wita tnose em
braced in the proposition made to the city
in February. As this proposition has
never been either accepted or rejected by
the councils, I would respectfully ask that
your honoraole bodies pass the accom
panying resolution antnonzing tne mayor
to execute tbe deed etleottnz the transfer
of this plot of laud under the conditions
originally set forth in the proposition of
the Jflatt neirs.
Tbe mayor also communicated tbat
it will not be necessary to remove tbe
dwelling situated on the Piatt tract
about to be purchased for bridge ap
proaches, until after April I, as f rank
Piatt is Willing to lease the house un
til that date at the rental of $50 a
month. A resolution containing tbe
spirit of the reoommendation was
aaopten.
Tbe mayor sent, ascompapylng an
other communication, a copy of the
agreement between the Central Rail
road of New Jersey, the Lehigh Coal
and Navigation company, tbe Wilkes
liar re and scranton rallwuy company,
and tbe city of SorantoD, relative to
the placing of the piers of the new
Linden street bridge.
When tbe concurrent resolution
of the select couneil awarding th con
tract of paving West Lackawanna ave
nue from tbe Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western railroad tracks toJNlnth
street to Nioholls and Fabey was read
Chairman Nealis, who had vaoated the
ohalr some time previous and sent Mr,
Jloir to preside, objected to its passage,
Copies of the different bids were pinned
to the resolution, and Mr. Nealis made
a long speech against the resolution on
tbe ground that the bid of Dunn Bros.
was virtually lower than the firms that
had been given tho job. He moved to
refer tbe resolution to its propur com
mittee to scrutinize closely, with i
recommendation to report forthwith.
Mr. Robatnan moved to lay tbe motion
on tbe table and it was lost, 8 to 10,
Tbe motion to refer was carried. The
committee adjourned and in a few
minutes returned with it amended,
awarding the paving contract to Dunn
Bros,, una tbe curbing contract to
NicbolU 6? talicy. A half hours par
liamentary cross fire on tbe report of
the committee finally ended in tbe ae
ceptance of the report as amended.
PASSED ON THIRD READING.
Ordis.nees tbat passed third reading
were: Providing for en electrlo light
in KrsisUr conrt, between Olive and
Vine strents, and for tbat purpose the
sum of 30 was transferred from tbe

by the children's chorus, winners of

Drotbingdaa white orehestrs, con
dusted by Miss Nellie B. Chandler.
Tbe ladies of the orobestra will form
valuable aer lisition to the musioal
talent of Set. ton, Their performanee
of "From Dawn to Daylight'' called
forth an encore, which was reSDonded
to, and another seleotion was rendered
with great skill and delicacy. J. T,
Watklns sang "Bid Me Welcome
Home," but a slight hoarseness made
itself felt.
The flute solo by Miss Florence E.
Beckett was one of tbe pleasant num
bers of tbe evening and was exquisitely
performed. An enc re was louJIy de
manded and responded to. J. he Scran
ton Cathollo ohoir sustained ltd well-
nown reputation In the singln r of the
Gloria." and was followed by a cornet
solo very cleverly rendered by Miss
Gertrude Packard, who was compelled
to comply with tbe demand for an en
core. Mrs, Lewis, of rrovldence, the
successful soprano, was beariily ap
plauded and was followed by Mrs.
D. B. Thomas' Ladies' ohoir, who, un-
er the direotion of their talen ed oon-
duotress, gave a splendid exposition of
Bridal of the Birds."
Tbe Ladies' Orchestra won fresh
laurels in tbeir exuoution of a ajleotion
of Tolaul's operatic compositions and
showed superior skill in dlfflo tit pas
sages and transitions. The sueoessful
contralto, Mrs. Boton" Willla ns, was
warmly applauded in the pi Izh song:
"Guard my beloved One." The Druid's
Glee club acquitted themselves. splen
didly in "Martyrs of the Arena".

TEACHERS
Board ' of Control Committee Split on the
. Question.
REFUSED LEAVE OF ABSENCE
Teachers' Committee Are Divided on
the Subject, the Minority Believing
in Reasonable Liberality and a Re
gard for the Duties of Citizenship.
The matter Likely to Bj Hotly
Contested in the Next Board Meet
ing, Unless the Committee Recon
siders. Trouble is brewing In the board of
control for publio school teaotmrs who
nave been nominated for political omee
and asked for leave of absence, and for
other teachers who are accustomed to
absent themselves for reasons other
than sickness or necessity.
Tbe teachers' committee met last nigbt
in seeret session and adopted, a report
to tne atov ettect lor presentation at
the next board meeting. Two mem
bers, however, dissented from the wis
dom of tbe action.
Superintendent Phillips was oreseat
et the meeting and urged strenuously
that tbe committee either adopt some
such measnre or grant certain teachers
leave of absence. The unoartainty, he
contended, interfered with the work
ings of bis office as well as dampened
tbe progress of tbe pupils.
lbe debate on tbe Question was
vigorous and extended. The members
opposed to granting leave of absenoes
argued that the substitute system is
absurd; that a change of teachers
thwarts progress and demoralizes dis
cipline, and that often teachers un-
adapted for certain grades are substi
tuted. Members who took au opposite
view contended that in tbe case of
teachers nominated for pilitleil office
tbey should not lose their positiens
through simply their obligations to
duty as citizens.
OLD RULES WERE BEAD.
Secretary Fellows was finally nsked
to read tbe rules adopted Oct. 9, 1803,
and beariag on tbe question. It was
moved tbat leave of absence shall not
be granted, and the rules relating to
the matter be enforced. Three votes
for and two against tbe motion.
UoUst tbe action of the committee is
reconsidered before the next meeting
a number of teachers will either be
compelled to resign or abide strictly by
tbe letter of the rules. Tbere is con
siderable dissatisfaction among the
minority of tbe eommittee, and it is
probable tbat a minority report will be
presented the board. At all eveutp,
what one gentleman designated "a
spirit of reasonable liberality is likely'
to develop In tbe board meeting,
