SCRAHTON'S FLOWER SHOW
Hcgitis at 9 o'clock This Morning in
. the Prothingham Theater.
A CHRYSANTHEMUM DISFLAY
The Popular Aatomn Flower Will Be
Shown In All Its Variety and Beauty.
At .Midnight Everythinc U'ss
Heady for the Opening.
Scranton's big chrysanthemum show
begins at 9 o'clock this morning in the
Frothtngham theater and will continue
each day from 9 to 11 o'clock until next
Tuesday night. All of yesterday and
until late in the night a small army of
llorists, carpenters, decorators and
helpers were as busy as bees trans
forming the theater, itself beautiful.
Into a splendid and huge bower of
floral 'fragranre and magnificence. The
rate of admission is twenty-live cents
for adults and fifteen cents for chil
dren. New York and other large cities have
for years had their chrysanthemum
shows, horse shows and bench shows,
but the chrysanthemum display is the
first thing of the kind to be Introduced
In Seranton. However. chrysan
themums are not the only features of
the show. There will be the rarest
and largest collection of palms and
ferns ever put on exhibition in this
section of the state: there is to be a
display of bulbs, jarrtineres and fern
dishes nnd almost the entire space
back of the seats Is to contain an ex
hibition of hermetically sealed fruits
In glass by E. O. Coursen.
Although the arrangements neces
sary for the show could not be started
until after the Brownie scenery and
paraphernalia had been taken from the
theater at midnight Tuesday, the
numerous corps of workers had at
midnight last night - completed their
lnbors and when vlsltorp flock to the
theater to-day they will marvel how so
much could bo accomplished in so short
a time.
Covcrod Level wlih the stticc.
The main display space will extend
from the rear of the stage to the tier
of seats back of the orchestra chairs,
the main auditorium floor space having
been lowered and tloored. thus bringing
the orchestca floor on a level with the
stage.
To one seated In a chair back of the
clrclo the view is wonderful in Its
beauty and Inspiration. The rear of
the stage is an immense bank of chrys
anthemums above a mound of tropical
plants in tho center of the stage and
exhibited by Vllliam C. Clark, gard
ener to Colonel II. M. Holes. To tho
left of the stage and backed by settings
Is a dinner service exhibit. Including
table, chairs, linen, silver, china and
cutlery, each article being . the very
best that could bo procured.
This exhibit is the Joint effort of
Weichel & Millar, Hill & Connell, nnd
J. C. Huntington. It was planned In
order that even the best known social
element could gather a few new Ideas
In table arrangement service. To the
right of the stage has been built a
mound of moss and rocKs from which
plays a fountain.
In the middle of the main floor la a
huge star composed of chrysan
themums nnd the same kind of blos
soms are In hanks on either side of the
main lloor and aslnst the tier of circle
seats.
Most Templing Dlsnlav,
To many persons the exhibit of here
metically scaled glass Jars of fruit
along the rear aisle will offer as great
a source of delight as will the llowers.
Maybe the readers can imagine tiers,
pyramids, stacks and piles of odd
shaped glass Jars each containing some
kind of luscious fruit and arranged on
a table live feet wide and over fifty
feet long.
Figure the value of each can at from
forty cents to-$1.50 nnd then consider
that the exhibit contains live or six
hundred car.; and an idea may be
formed of Km value. There are several
huge glass receptacles several feet In
heighth containing pears, cherries on
the branch wad,;, plneaplcs, , each lot
really as fresh as when gathered. Then
there are delicious looking Jars of
raspberies, pears, strawberries of white
nnd red variety, asparagus, bcans.peas,
etc., prepared In Oermany, France,
England and this country.
On the Penn avenue side of the the
ater are piles of Vegetables of all kinds.
Chrysanthemums and palms are ar
ranged in the lobby. !
Festoons of Wild smllax shipped from
Florida and roplngs of ground pine
are strung beneath the celling over all
parts of the house.

NOW A MATTER OF DOUBT.
Into Whose Hands the Rasa Rail Fran
chlso Will Fall, Is a Question.
The franchise and property of the
Seranton Base Ball anosclatlon will be
sold by the sheriff at the Base Ball
park this afternoon at 4 o'clock. Count
less rumors as to the probable disposal
of the franchise have been circulated
since the association went Into Insol
vency, but careful Inquiry does not
warrant a change of the opinion given
by The Tribune a week ago to the effect
that the franchise will stay In this city.
This view Is based upon trustworthy
Information from Individuals, Including
President Powers, of the Eastern
league. President Betts, of the Seran
ton ,asociatton. Is uncommunicative,
bis only definite statement being that
If local buyers do not bid the prop
erty up to a reasonable figure the as
sociation will bid it in, and will con
duct a club In the Kastern league next
season unlesa a buyer or -buyers may I
be found meanwhile. He, however, says
he will not continue in the business.
One thing Is quite positive no out-of-tewn
buyers want the franchise, at
least no publicity has been given to
any foreign dicker.

A YANKEE TRICK, THIS. .
Voting Phllndelplilnn Secures a I'ostofflco
In llritish Columbia.
Vincent Hennett, of Rossland,
British Columbia, recently of Philadel
phia, is spending a few days In this
city on business and while here Is
being shown about the city by Mark
K. Edgar, of the mayor's office.
Mr. Bennett Is more than an ordinary
young man in many ways, but In one
particular he is extraordinary, .possibly
unique. That particular Is that while
an American citizen he was one of Her
Gracious Majesty's postmasters. About
six months ago Mr. Bennett went to
Kosslnnd, then a wilderness, and when
a town sprang up he secured the posi
tion of postmaster. In less than half
a year Rossland grew Intq a town of
3.000 inhabitants with twenty saloons,
an opera house, threw churOhes, three
papers, electric llgfcts and a trolley
line. Then the office of postmaster be
came very desirable And Mr. Bennett's
lnelllglblllty was expo.vil. He had to
go, of course. The affair caused quite
a stir In civil service circles in Canada.
Mr. Bennett voted in Philadelphia
Tuesday.
Rossland Is a gold mining town about
1H0 miles from Spokane. There is no
railroad runnlnjr there yet but two
routes are alreaely being surveyed.
Five gold mines have been opened up
and all are making heaps of money,.
Tho town Mr. Bennett says is a per
manent fixture and will some time be
a city.
Y. M. C. A. STANDARD COURSE
First Cntcrtainn-.cnt Will lie Given Next
Tuesdny F.vcning.
Tho annual announcement of the
Young Men's Christian association
standard course has come to be a mat
ter of Interest to the majority of tihe
cultured people of tho city from the
fact that for six years an excellent
series of entertainments has been given
annually with Increasing popularity
and success. This may be accounted
for by the fact that the committee has
relied more on the merit of the attrac
tion offered to their patrons than upon
the push of ticket sellers, so that the
people have voluntarily bought the
tickets which have been sent through
the malls with a simple announcement,
and have Invariably had their money's
worth of genulno entertainment. ,
The services of the association have
largely been given gratuitously In
this connection, the Idea of the com
mittee being to ensure the artistic suc
cers of the course rather than large
financial returns with the result that
last year the committee spent, all but
$.'10 In the course itself, and were con
tent because tho patrons of the course
were thoroughly pleased.
The course opens on Tuesday evening,
November 12, with the Remenyl Grand
Concert Co., tickets for which are now
to be had at the association office.'

LARGEST OF THEATKRS.
A London Playhouse Which Eclipses Even
tho Chicago Aiiditoriura-You Can
I'laco Six Thousand Performers on lis
Stogo.
London now possesses not only the
largest wheel but the 'biggest theater In
the world. Until recently Chicago,
with its tremendous Auditorium thea
ter, may be said to have had the largest
build lne; erected solely for theatrical
displays, but now 'Karl's Court, with
the Jimpress theater, goca one bettes
than the American city. The only
building im 'London in w'hieh theatrical
d if plays have been given to be com
pared with the Empress theater is
Olympla. As this husre structure was
not built expressly for theatrical pur
poses, the claims of the Empress tnea
ter still hold good.
Imagine an Iron an!J ibrkk building
towering; above everything at Earl's
Court except the great wheel, almost as
long as Trafalgar Square, and nearly
as wide! The span of the 'roof is only
beaten by one erection In the kingdom,
that, we believe, being the span of St.
Pancras station. This roof span of the
Empress theater is 220 feet, while the
height from ground, to lantern Is no less
than 117 feet, or more than half the
height of the monument, and only seven
feet shorted than the Duke of York's
column In Carlton House Terrace.
Aa the auditorium la one of the larg
est In this country, so, too. Is the im
mense stage. In designing this latter
work Imre Klralfy has adopted tome
remarkable and curious devices. The
entire stage can be moved about here
and there, and put up In sections In
such a .mechanical way that 'It can be
made to assume any fcuim called for by
the exigencies of the scene.
Stogo Room for 0,000 People.
On this great stage of the Empress
theater there Is room for at least 6.000
people, -without un'Jue crushing, and at
least 2,000 performers, in addition to 500
workmen carpenters, shifters, proper
ty men, etc. are on It In rue scene in
the production. To provide for this im
mense number of performers there ara
scores of dressing-rooms at the rear of

the stage. To light this great etage
and the aulitorium over thirty electric
arc-lamps are used, while twenty lime
lights 'help to produce the beautiful
color effects now seen In every theatri
cal display. In addition to these great
er lights, over 3,000 Incandescent 'burn
ers are In use all over the building.
Certainly in the way of a curtain the
Empress theater has the 'biggest In the
world. It is a rich and elaborate piece
of artistic work, eighty-live feet high
and 260 feet long. A curtain of hla
kind would hide more than half of the
frontage of the National Gallery and
much of the roof of that large building.
Over 12,000 dresses are worn during the
production of "India," many of the per
formers wearing three, four and live In
the piece. The number of spangles used
runs Into millions, and the sequins on
the Indian dresses are almost without
number. Nearly 09 many Wlg3 as
dret3es are used. Of the number of
dancers' shoes which are worn out dur
ing a month's performances It would
be hard to give an accurate report, but
2,000 would be near the mark.
All the scenery, the curtain and the
stage are moved by steam power, for
no human effort alone could build up
some of the stage pictures produced.
From every point cf view this theater
probably holds the palm for hugeness
and ease In managing it.
