Charley's Aaat Produced Before a Largs
Audience at the Frothiagham.
"Charley's Aunt," an English farce,
was given at the Frothlngham last
night by one of Charles Fruhman'a
companies. It was the occasion of the
formal opening of Hie theater for the
season unde he management of Wag
ner & Re4s. of Syracuse, N. Y., and at
tracted a large and fashionable audi
ence. The scene of the farce Is laid at Ox
ford university. England, the aqtlon
and there Is plenty of it revolves about
the love affairs of 'two uinlur-graduates.
Jack Chesney and Charley Wykeham.
Tile latter has an aunt fabulously rich
who 'has JuHt returned from Brazil and
whom he has never seen. It Is ar
ranged to give a dinner party In Ches
ney's apartments that they may have
a few minutes with their sweethearts
undisturbed and the aunt who Is ex
ected to arrive before the hour for
dinner, Is counted upon to give the
whole affair an air of strict propriety.
.She fails to come and a chum of the
young man. Lord Fancourt Babberly.
dons female attire and is Induced to
Impersonate the rich Brazilian aunt.
As may be supposed any number of
ludicrous, allieit improbable, situations
result, which furnish material for un
restrained mirth from the time the
curtain rises until It is run down on
four happily solved and eqaully happily
terminated love affairs that are inter
woven into the farce.
It was a clever and competent com
pany that produced "Charley's Aunt"
last night, and Its good work was fre
quently rewarded with applause.
Arthur Lai kin's impersonation of the
bogus aunt, a most dltlicult and exact
ing role, was capital, and Raymond
Capp, Addison Pitts, Joseph Allen,
Grace Thome Coulter, Marie Anderson
and May Monte Donico gave excellent
Impersonations of the other leading
roles.

SOUTH SIDE.
Father Cullen preached the Rermon
at St. John's churoh last night on the
subject of temperance. The religious
Instruction was given by Father O'Cal
lan on purgatory. He reminded them
that the churoh teaches the doctrine
of penance. 'Sins much be atoned In
this world or In the next. If the sin
ner dies unrepenltant he will suffer
everlasting torments of hell, and If a
person dies forgiven by God, but the
sins not atoned for, there Is a purga
tory, which is a place of fire that
cleanses and purities the soul for the
sight of God. A soul In purgatory can
not shorten Its suffering by prayer, but
the prayers in this world directed for
the benefit of suffering souls cut off
days and years from the term that a
soul Is detained to spend there. Father
Cullen said in beginning his sermon
that he did not want to preach on tem
perance to 'the women for the reason
that he felt they needed remonstrating
with on this point. He wished to make
them advocates so that theln Influence
would go out over their husbands, sons,
and brothers. For the drunkard shall
not inherit the kingdom of heaven.
The ushers handed around to each one
present a' tottall nibntilnenoe promise,
which et forth that the signer would,
for the love of God and It he good of hor
wjul, abstain from Intoxicating drinks.
Joseph Hawley, of Pittston avenue,
was Injured yesterday by running a
saw against hls knee and cutting a
deep get-in In the bone.
Fred Pell, of Pittston avenue, died
yesterday morning after a long Illness
of typhoid fever. He was a blacksmith
