Davenport and Melbourne McDowell,
supported by a fine company, at the
Frothingham last night The engage
ment continues to-night and to-morrow
night.
If no other evidence existed, the per
sonnel and quantity of last night's audi
ence, its wrapt attention and apprecla
lon is sufficient evidence that "Gls

the three go together are superb. All
the desirable seats In the house had

Canaot Be Described.
To attempt a description of the pro
duction without mature thought seems
a desecration One would have to go into
an explanation of what constitutes pro
priety -and morals in the eyes of a :
French playwright, such as victorien
Sardou, who wrote "Glsmonda. The
Btory df the clay hinges upon the de
sire of a' noble woman' to renounce a
holy vow made under impulse, and to
tell the story requires the vivisection
of the soul of the woman forced under
peculiar circumstances to barter her
honor for the sake of pride.
These circumstances are probably
considered leniently by the audiences
which witness the playi certainly, Bar
dou. the author, thought they would
be so received or he would not have
chanced a waste of his art, and certain
ly so good a judge of what Is best, in a
theatrical sense, would not' have been
chosen by Davenport herself had she
not believed "Olsmonda" to be pure
and real to those who are to witness
it, and who are supposed to be pure and
real tnemseives. ho much for the mor
allty of the play which, can be best
appreciated by personal contact with
it: or. its lessons in fact. It Is true and
elevating and can by no undebased
mina De considered otherwise.
Story of the Drama.
Briefly. Glsmonda's little ehlM fait
Into the arena and Is rescued from th
iiger Dy Aimerio, a falconer, a hireling,
but withal a magnificent fellow, hand
some, the soul of .honor and a natural
leader. Previous to her heartrending
view or tne ngnt between man nl
beast, Olsmonda registers a vow to
heaven In the presence of Bishop
Sophron that she will wed and share
her Florentine sovereignty with the
child s deliverer,- whoever the person
may be. In explanation of the value
of an oath at that' period it is neces
sary to state that the Florentines were
under the powerful rule of the Church.
and their views were so hampered by
dogmas' that an oath sworn on the
cross (as did Olsmonda) was as bind
ing as if uttered before heaven Itself,
and' that we can but Imperfectly un
derstand at this day the terror of a
Papal threat of excommunication.
Excommunication was threatened

who refused to release her.. ' The nobles
or uismonaas court urged her sanc
tion of their plans for assassination,
but she repulsed them and urged Al
merlo to release her, but, when he re
fused, was so drawn to him by his pas
sionate declaration of love that she
agreed to bestow., upon him her honor
and continue the liaison it the next day
in the church of Banta Maria he would
publlcally' privilege her to recall her
first vow. He consented, un tne first
visit of Olsmonda to Almerio's hut, the
habitation is visited by Raccarla, a sui
tor for Olsmonda a hand, and an ac
complice. The accomplice shrinks from
committing murder and rushes away.
Raccarla determines to perform tne
deed, but is brained .with an ax by
Glsmonda on the steps leading to Al
merio's hut, but not until after Olsmon
da had overheard the conversation be
tween Raccarla and the accomplice. In
which It was revealed that the former
had caused her child to be dropped into
the arena.
Climax In Cbnr.h of Santa Maria.
The climax occurs In the Church of
Santa Maria the following' day, when
Almerlo Is accused of killing Raccarla.
Glsmonda confesses the crime, her love
for Almerlo and ner discovery oi nac-
carla's rascality. The bishop's bene
diction la given he couple and t'n
rps-al mantle is piacea on.Aimenos

BIG CROWD SEES THE CONTEST
Wyotnlag Coald Seora Nothlag Bat a
Safety aad That Was a Caaaee
-Score-There Was Eatfcaslasaa
Gator at the QaoM.
Another Wyoming massacre occurred
yesterday - It was the third this sea
son. Big Chief Connery and his ten
braves of tho Bicycle tribe have added
another great victory to their almost
unbroken list and the seminarians are
more than ever convinced that their
fighting prowess is not to be compared
with that of Scranton's representative
team, me score was Bcranton, u:
Wyoming, Z. - .
It was the most pretentious foot ball
game that has as yet been witnessed
here and gives evidence that the' game
Is taking a firm hold and that the
gridiron on Thanksgiving Day will be
fore many years be as popular In this
city aa the diamond on Fourth of July.
There were about 1.200 people present.
one-third of whom were ladles; there
was a lot of yelling by the lusty-lunged
supporters of either side: nearly ev
erybody wore the colors of their fa
vorite team, and everywhere the great-
est enthusiasm abounded . The Scran-
ton adherents outnumbered the college
shouters two to one. but the former
were not snaring in their cheers when
the opposition made a good play.
The collegians were clearly outclassed
and were kept on the defensive nearly
all the time. They played a hard, gritty
game and did well to keep their oppo
nents from scoring more than they did,
Though there was plenty of slugging
and the fiercest kind of line plunging
and hard tackling, It is remarkable that
not a single man was hurt and botn
teams played the game through with
the men who lined up at tne first kick
off. Every man on the Bicycle team
nlaved a faultless game, with tne ex
xent4on of Thaver. who had to go In
to play full back with a bad leg. For
the seminarians, Oendall did the star
work, and Frants, Worthlngton, mitn
and Aldlnger also dlstinguisnta mem
selves. '
Line Vp of the Teams.
At 3.15 the game was called and the
teams lined up as follows:
Wyoming. t ' ' Bcranton.

McDermott right tackle Zang

Umpire, Dr. Stein; refers., John H.
Brooks, Princeton, '96; linesman, Ralph
Rymer, Wyoming Seminary; assistant
linesmen, Dan Getbert. Scranlon. and
Ralph M. Shaw, Wyoming Seminary.
Scranton won the toss and took the
north goal, which was on the muddy
end of the Held. Seminary kicked off.
Thayer caught the ball on the twenty
yard line and passed It to Foster, who
mn n varda before being downed.
Then Bcranton went at Wyoming's end
and tackled In whirlwind atyle and In
Ave rushes carried tne bail over tor me
flrat touchdown in lust eight minutes.
Of the eighty yards covered In fhls first
fierce onslaught tne nrsi ten go to pos
ter's credit; five to Allen's, eighteen to
Posner's, forty to Foster's; live were
donated for off aide play and the re
mainder to Posner's. who made the
final plunge through the left tackle for
the touch down. Foster's run . was a
pretty one and his interference was su
perb. Decker kicked goal. , .
Robertson waa up with tha ball on the
kick-off and tackled Foster before he
could stir. Foster and Poaner got stuck
In the mud and neither could gain. ' The
ball was passed to Thayer for a kick,
but he fumbled it and a block resulted.
Scranton recovered the ball, but In
floundering around In the mud lost it
soon again on a fumble.
An Attack by Wyoming.
Aldlnger then began Wyoming's at
tack. He tried Decker's end, but could
not get across the line at that point
Then Smith attempted a dron kick, but
failed, although he came uncomfortably
close to making It. The ball was car
ried' out twenty-five yarda and after
Foster had gained two yards Scranton
tost It on a fumble on their thirty-yard
line where a wholesale slugging match
took place, which caused the officials to
call both captains aside and give them
a lecture.
On the next play Wyoming rumbled
and Bcranton s omnipresent center,
"Blondle" Cleveland, was found sitting
astride of the ball when the smoke
cleared away. Posner was called upon
for yards and contributed three. Allen
added one ana rosner tarew in an
other three. Foster, Cogglns and Pos
ner kept pushing the good thing until
the enemy's territory waa reached,
when Posner carried It. after a' pretty
twelve yard run, to Wyoming s forty
vard line.
Foster bucked the line for six yarda
waisn rumbled, but recovered and fob-
ter broke through again for five yards.
being neatly tacKled by Johnson,
Thayer attempted a kick, but Fletcher
blocked the ball and Aldlnger fell on It
Aluinger and Smith, by fierce plunges,
carried the ball seven yards', then
Smith and Robertson measured off four
yards apiece, Frans lined Bcranton'
center, but was sorry for It the extent
of two yards. .....
Scranton got the ball on a fumble.
Foster. Posner. Allen and Zang each
made short gains around tha ends, but
Foster lost nearly all the gained ground
in trying to dodge the yotning backs,
who broke through the line and downed
him. ' Posner attempted to recover the
lost ground, but couldn't, so Thayer
kicked the ball out of danger and the
first hair "was caned with the ball on
Wyoming's thirty-yard line. Bcran
ton 6; Wyoming 0.
Ssoond Half of the Game,
At the opening of the second half
Cogglns kicked off for Scranton, send
ing the ball to the five-yard line.
Scranton got down the field In good
time and prevented the seminarians
from making over ten-yards headway
Scranton held them for three downs,
and controlled Smith to kick. Walsh
caught the ball on a roll at the forty-flve-yard
line, and gained but five
yards before being downed. Then
three, five and fifteen yarda were re
spectively gained by Cogglns, Posner
and Foster. i .
Worthlngton broke through and
forced Posner back a yard. Connery
and Foster made desperate efforts tfl
regain the lost ground and make up the,
necessary five yards but the plucky colt
leglans withstood the big battening
rams and got the ball on downs.
Smith tried the center and waa re
pulsed with a loss, but Referee Brookr
measured them off a ten-yard present
because Zang waa off-side. Then came
the surmise of the day. The semin
ary backs pulled themselves together
nd kept pounding at the heavy Bcran
ton line lor steady and substantial
gains. Thirty yards waa covered by
the hardest kind of plunging and div
ing, but the exertion waa too much
for the three plucky little backs, and
if ter a final desperate truele at
Scranton's twenty-flve-yard line they
had to give over the ball because they

Smith kicked off. Thayer caught It
and passed to Foster, who made ten
yarda Wyoming put up a good resist
ance at this Juncture, and after Deck

kicked. Uendale caught the ball at
the center of the field, and without the
assistance of interferers made
twenty-yard run through the whole
Scranton team, winning rounds of ap
plause, and the distinction of making
the best play of the day. On the line
up Worthlngton failed to gain, but the
Seminarians got ten yards for holding

FIND IT A HARD TASK.
Jury ia the Sehloss Trsapass Csss Csa
notcoms te an Agre.ntent.
Sammy Sehloss ought to become a
valuable cltlsen If his worth can be
commensurately determined from the
standard of value on his missing ear,
which was bitten off by a dog, alleged
to be owned by Frank M. Cobb, the
horse dealer. The boy's father brought
suit against Mr. Cobb for damages In
the sum of $2,000. The case came to
trial and the Jury could not agree.
It came up for trial the second time
last Monday and went to the Jury
Tuesday afternoon at 4 o'clock. They
remained out all night and could not
agree. Wednesday over three hours
were spent by Stenographer M. A. Mc
Glnley rehashing the testimony for
them; they went back and aeiiberatea
again. At 4 - o'clock they sent word
to Judge Qunster that they could not
agree and desired to get out to go home
for Thanksgiving.
Word was sent back to them that
they would agree or else eat the flesh
of the nation's bird in tne court nouse.
They did not apree and as there was
no court yesterday they could make no
demand to be discharged. At mianigni
thev went to sleep. Still unable to agree.
They will ask to be discharged this
morning.
GOVERNOR HAS APPROVED.
Bosk's Seataass New Commuted to Im
prisonment for Life.
Governor Hastings has approved of
the recommendation of the board of
nardons commuting the death sentence
of Frank Bezek to Imprisonment for
life for the murder of Mane Kersic at
Olyphant on Oct. 9, 1RM.
It Is probable that Besek will be taken
to the Eastern penitentiary next week.
Since his sentence was commuted he
has been very cheerful and apparently
does not view with much horror the
prospect of spending the remainder of
his days behind prison bars.

Fairer weather for Thanksgiving
could not have been desired than that
of yesterday. The warm sunshine had
a happy glow and begot a condition of
cheerfulness that was everywhere and
on all sides apparent The city waa
In holiday attire, and the people went
to church In the morning, and In the
evening to church or the theater. The
afternoon was spent out of doors; those
who were not working enjoyed them
selves In this manner. I
Perhaps, the greatest cause for re
joicing was the universal Industrial ac
tivity that Is now going on. The mines
did not suspend operations, except in
a few Instances. At all of the churches
services were held: at night there was
a social In almost every hall of any size
In the city. The foot ball game in the
afternoon at the Base Ball park at
tracted a large gathering of spectators.
Amateur foot ball games were abund
ant, and these brought out many ad
mirers. . .
The shops and the stores were closed
and business was at a standstill; the
general air of prosperity was the sub
ject of comment, and thanksgivings
were accordingly heard. This year
there were fewer people out of town on
s2fy !han ln a lon Ume before.
