OLCOTT'S NEW PLAY.
Witnessed by on Appreciative Audicucs
at tho Academy.)" .
Chauiicey' Olcott was greeted last
night at the Academy of Mifslc In the
new comedy drama, "The Irish Artist,"
by a large and appreciative audience.
The plot of the drama Is similar to
that of most Irish dramas on' the stage
nowadays.
The character, Maurice Cronln, as
sumed by Olcott, that of a young, am
bitious artist and successful from a
professional standpoint, yet struggling
financially, which hinders the progress
f his love affairs with Miss- Katie Ma-
hone until a chance discovery proves
him to be the legitimate Bon of Sir Rob-
rt Dean, a well-to-do gentleman of the
Hinge, and not the son of Cormac
Cronln, a farmer, with whom he has
ved as son for many years, is probable
enough; still the characters. Edmund
Dean, his brother, and Maggie Cronln,
his supposed Bister, who has been
wronged by Edmund, are quite im
probable and certainly bo very unusual
n Ireland as to make their presence in
most Irish dramas a matter for amaze
ment. Aside from this the show Is an excel
lent one, the Singing of his own songs
by Mr.-'Olcott and of Moore's "Believe
Me of All Those Endearing Young
.'harms," was a treat. .One bit of act
ing deserves special mention, viz., the
courting scene between Jerry Sweeney
and Widow Blake. The scenery is
first-class and the costumes, which are
said to be historically correct, ure ele
gant. IN Till: TENDERLOIN.
It Is a Melodrama That Will Not Elevate
the Stage.
"In The Tendeloln" will never be re
sponsible fur elevating the Btage even
n the slightest degree, but as. a moving
let ure of the senrney side of life In
New York it Is probable that It has
never been surpassed.
Tho scenes In Phil Daly's gambling
house, Tom Davis' green goods house
nd ithe Sans SoucI, Tom Gould's no
torloua resort for toughs, were staged
iu a splendid manner, the last men
tion In particular.
To add to the reullnm of the play
Tom Gould and George Appo, the man
who tol-d the Lexow committee all about
the green goods business in New York
a .shout Um3 apro, were Introduced as
members of the cast. They are not
ornaments to the profession. Appo is a
small, one-eyed man who looks much
younger 'than, he is. He. has a thin
piping voice and a difficulty in dlapos-
ng of his hands when before the audi
ence. Besides these worthies, whose
parts are mainly of a thinking char
acter, 'tihere are Frederick Bryton and
several other competent actors In the
company;
As an object 'lesson of the wickedness
there 'Is In New York "In the Tender
lain" Is a success, but Its effect on the
tage and on aoting from an artistic
stadpoint Is most debilitating.
SOCIAL AT PROVIDENCE.
Given by Keystone Club at Armory of
Company 1).
The social of the Keystone Social
club at Company H armory last night
was one of the mopt brilliant social
events of this season in the North End.
The large drill room was decorated in
a pretty manner with evergreens and
bunting. Curtains and plants arranged
most artistically screened the windows
from view and palms and plants were
banked on the front of the stage.
From the curb stone to the build-Ins
vas an awning and at the entrance a
st't of gatea was Arranged in a floral
arch. " These gates were guarded by
little pickaninnies and swung open as
the guc-sts approached. Refreshments
were served duiilng ' the evening.
Bauer's orchestra furnished the dance
music and vocal numbers were ren
dered by tho Electric OUy quartette,
The event was attended by a large
number of young people from Scran-ton
and its vicinity.

A hearing In the .Injunction case of
Mrs. Abble Sheak, of Blnghamton
against the Curtis Medicine company,

pany from manufacturing tho Curtis

Early Hour Yesterday Morning.
IME OP FUNERAL X0T SET
Bernard Bubel Thinks Thut People Who
Worried About His Children Were Not
Wise Stories About Councilmcn
Wcstpfuhl and Robinson Wrong.
At 1 o'clock yesterday morning Ste
phen Judge.oneof the best, known young
en of the Twentieth ward, died, after
an Illness lasting two weeks, at his
home In the rear of 1813 Cedar avenue.
hnn the announcement was made
Christmas morning that he was dan-
urously 111- It surprised and shocked
all who knew him. Sunday evening
Dr. Manley Informed Oils family of the
eaknej?s of his condition and other
lysliians were called in consultation,
but ia.Il efforts 'to save his life -were of
no avail.
His manly qualities won for him a
friend wherever he found an acquaint-,
ance. He was an energetic citizen and
as prominent in any public measure
that Interested the people of the Twen
tieth ward. He -was a prominent mem
ber of Columibus council, Young Men's
Institute, 'and was elected last Sunday
as first vice-president. He was in Ms
thirty-third year and was married
eleven years ago to Miss Catherine
Coyne, of Minooka. Ills widow and
two children survive him. Arrange
ments for the funeral have not been
made.
Bubel Did Not Worry.
As stated In yesterday's paper the fire
Wednesday evening on Meadow avenue
originated lnithe house owned by Bern
ard Bubel, and it was sensationally re
ported for a time that some of his Chil
dren were in 'the house when the fire
broke out and "had been burned up In
the flames. The Scranton Saenger-
runde was having a Christmas tree
celebration In Naitter'e hall on Alder
trect, and Bubel, with hds family was
there. He was mot on his way home
bout 10 o'clock that night by one of his
acquaintances and informed -that hla
home had been burd to ashes in his
absence.
The unfortunate news did not appear
to worry him In 'the hast and when he
was told 'that the neighbors were afraid
lest some of his children might have
perished, he philosophically remarked
that they were foolish '0 think of such
thing. He '- . ,iis loss on the
building a ... .urnlture at $1,500. He
had no theory to offer regarding the
origin of the fire.
They Were Hoaxed.
A telephone -message, conveying the
ntuva thait Select Councilman Charles
W. Westpfahl, of Pittston avenue, had
been staibbed in the side and a serious
wound Inflicted, was received at the
oflices of the morning newspapers of
the city yesterday morning about 1
o'clock. The author of the message
was Will F. Clifford. He could not be
seen yesterday so that he might g'lve
an account of himself for performing
Biitih a despicable trick. There was nut
a vestige of truth In the story nor any
excuse for It. Select Councilman West
pfahl was seen yesterday by a Tribune
reporter and he was iln ihis usual good
health.
He did not see Clifford on the nlcht
In question and was at a loss to ac
count for the motive that actuated him
In circulating the story. As a practical
oker Mr. Clfford deserves to rank with
the thick individual whd sat on a limb
and aawed himself down. His Ideas of
humor need revising.

THE CASHIER PAID INTEREST
One of the Daring Methods by Which
Mckean Stole $05,000.
By the United Press.
Nashua, N. H., Dec. 27. Bank Ex
aminer C. M. Dorr will complete his In
vestigation of the accounts of Frank A.
McKean, the defaulting cashier of the
Indean Head National bank,--,tonlght.
The examination of the books have re
vealed shrewd and daring methods on
the part of the embezzler In robbing
his friends and the bank, and It is now
readily understood how he secured $ii5,
000 before any suspleons were aroused.
One of the principle methods by which
McKean obtained money was through
nn old cetifloate book which the bank
oflkials suppostd was filed away in the
vaults. The bank pays no interest
011 deposits, but some years ago the di
rectors planned to Issue interest bear
ing certificates of deposit. Soon after
they gave up. the plan and the certifi
cate book was put away in the vault.
McKean abstracted It and Issued cer
tificates indiscriminately, paying the
Interest from the bank's funds. One
man in Nahua has a certificate of this
kind for $10,000, and has been paid 5
per cent. Interest by McKean. The de
faulter kept a careful account of these
certificates and altered the books to
cover up the stealings that were neces
sary to pay interest.

votes were' cast for Laubach In South
Bethlehem, Bethlehem and Hellertown.
The ballot boxes were brought Into
court, the alleged Illegal votes in the
Third ward of South Bethlehem In
spected, and thirteen were found to be
for Heller, ten for Laubach and one
blank. The contestants then agreed to
discontinue the Investigation and not
open any more ballot boxes. The con

CLEARING IT THE CAK TRACKS
Cars Dunning ns Far as the Western
Switch on I'rovidcncc I.lno-Condl-tlou
of Affairs on Steam Honda
Uunning Into the City.
Scranton was snowbound yesterday
and reports from every town between
here nnd Philadelphia indicate that
along thut line the storm has been the
severest. From 9 o'clock Wednesday
night until S o'clock last night street
car traffic was at a standstill, not a
wheel turning, except on the snow
plows. Eighteen Inche3 of snow had
fallen and burled the tracks, and even
on the steam railroads traffic was Im
peded. Up and down the coal fields
not a colliery was In operation, and pas
senger trains were delayed several
hours In the early part of the day.
Here Ih the city what Interested, the
Deunle most was the resumption of
street car travel. The snow had done
no damage, the storm not being ac
companied by any wind, except one
that just kept the snow 'drifting back
on the street car tracks as fast as It was
being shoveled away. On this account
the work of clearing the tracks was
slow. General Manager Beetem was
out nil night directing every man in
tho employ of the Traction company.
On the Peckvllle line two cars were
stalled during the night on the upper
end of the line, and" two were snow
bound nt Weston switch, near, the end
of the Providence line. On the South
Side line every car was snowed In, one
on Cedar avenue across the bridge,
one on Mattes street, one in Greenwood
and two in Mooslc. Passengers had to
walk after 9 o'clock, as there was not a
car In the city running.
Curs Moving in Providence.
The first sign of activity occurred at
8 o'clock last evening when the cars
on the Providence line began to make
their regular time as far as eston
switch. About the same time travel
opened on the Green Ridge People's line
and three cars made trips between
Lackawanna avnetie nnd Delaware
street. On the Hyde Park side the
main line was opened aB far as Hamp
ton street, and cars were running last
night. But no attempt had been made
to go to Taylor, or out Luzerne, Wash
burn, or Swetland streets. Not a car
was run on Laurel 11111 park, Nay Auj;
Falls, either of the suburban lines, or
on the South Side. A force of anen,
however, was sent nut last night on
these lines with shovels nnd they are
clearing the tracks. It Is expected that
today tte cars will be running on all
lines, unless another fall of snow
should set In.
Dining tills storm the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western Railroad
company has had less trouble with th
Poeono mountain than on any former
occasion where the fall has been as deep.
Passenger trains from Now York yes
terday morning wei. not more than an
hour hute and in the afternoon they
were run nil 11 g on time. On the northern
division the greatest trouble was re
ported at Great Bend, but oil the
Bloomsburg the 'trains were delayed
three and four 'hours. The Delaware
and Hudson trains running north were
not delayed by the storm, but they
were laite coming from Wllkes-Barre.
because the Lehigh Valley trains from
the east and south were nil behind
time several hours In making their
connections, which caused the Dela
ware and Hudson trains to be late.
Snow on Wilkcs-Burrc Mountain.
Harry C. Haak. of Power's drug store,
came up from Philadelphia yesterday
afternoon and he stated that the lino
between here und Pottsvllie has had
the heaviest fall of snow In many years.
On tho Wllkes-Barre mountain it re
quired two engines ahead 'and one In the
rear to haul the passenger trains.
Freight traffic at the Lehigh Valley
Coxtou yards ; was delayed and the
drifts on the mountain cut-off were so
heavy that tho snow plow had to be
sent out.
At 9 o'clock last night all passenger
trains on the Delaware, Lackawanna
und Western, Delaware and Hudson,
Ceuti'l Ral'lroad of New Jersey and On
tario and Western were running on
time.
