THE GRAND DUCHESS. Produced In a Splendid Manner h Lillian Russell nnd Company. Lillian Russell should feel pleased with herlnltial Introduction to Scranton theater-goers, for the audience that welcomed her at the Academy of Music lust night was both large and enthusi astic, to use trite and often times meaningless words, when used in con nection with matters theatrical. ian night s audience was certainly as large as the possibilities of the house would permit, and that it was enthusi astic the numerous encores eloquently testify. The opera bouffe that Miss Russell nnd her company sang last night was ' "The Grand Duchess," one of Offen bach's light and entertaining efforts. It was mounted and costumed In gor geous style, and It was sung In a fault less way.! J,lss Russell was the grand duchess, of course, and her regal beauty seemed to particularly fit her for the role. She was In fine voice and . the solos she sang were rapturously applauded.' She always graciously re- p.w.ivca . ... . . . It was one of the best productions of , light opera ever seen In the city, the compuny supporting Miss Russell proving worthy stage companions for her. Fred 'olomon led the comedians and among tno otnpr very clever mem. bers of the company were Joseph Her. "bert. Richie Ling. Owen Westford, William Ii. Malsdell and Mont Celeste. P Manager Burgunder deserves to be commended for his laudable efforts to give Bcrantonlans an opportunity of seeing light opera produced as It was t the Academy last night.

EACH FURNISHED $300 BAIL Fred Jones and Charles Slmrell Are the Accused .Men-llandy-.Maa Withers Appears in the esse Indica tions Point to Arrests Today. Two vlgilants of the First district of the Twentieth ward were arrested yes terday morning at the Instance of the Fellows coterie. The episode caused a flutter among smuller politicians and ward men who had plenty to talk about until they learned that the men, Fred Jones and Charles Slmrell, had waived a hearing and entered ball fur their appearance In court. The arrests were a mild beginning of the threat made by the leaders of the bolters from the recent city Republican convention which nominated Colonel E. II. Ripple for mayor, to cause whole sale arrests and prosecutions of pri mary officers in many districts which returned Ripple delegates. The little excitement that the arrests caused among the smaller fry of politicians was not shared by Colonel Ripple and his near friends who do not view the matter seriously but consider it the vapuiings caused by a few disgruntled fellows who are trying to create u sen timent against the regular Republican nominees und are willing to use any means to accomplish that end. It could not be authoiltlvely learned lute yesterday ufternoon that any more arrests will be made, but there are cir cumstantial facts in support of a ru mor that information will be made this morning ugainst primary officials In one of the two Twelfth ward districts. The information, upon which war rants were Issued for Jones nnd Slmrell, was drawn up by Attorney George Watson, of the firm of Watson & Zim merman, was signed by Henry Schlentss and was sworn and subscribed to be fore Alderman Fuller who Issued the warrants. W. II. Withers, secretary of the rump convention, accompanied Schlentz und Attorney Wutson from the lutter's office to Alderman Fuller's. The Information was us follows: Copv of tho Information, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, County of Luckawannu, City of Scranton. Before me, un uldermun In and for city and county, personally, uppeared Henry Schlentz, who, being duly sworn accord ing to law, deposes and says: 1 am a resident and quulllled voter of the Twentieth ward, In the city of Scran ton, in said county of Lackawanna and state of Pennsylvania, That on the fourth day of January, A.

D., l&Ki, und acting as vlgilants at said primary election. That during the time the said primary election was In progress, to wit: between the. hours of 4 and 7 o'clock p. m., on the said fourth day of January, ltlini. Charles Slmrell, one of the vlgilants, did, knowing ly and wilfully, take from the ballot box, tickets, after they had been deposited by the electors, and destroy the same, and also the suid Churles Slmrell did, at the same time und place take from the room, during that time that the voting was In progress to wit.: between the hours of 4 and 7 o'clock p. m., on said Cay, the bal lot box, containing the ballots of the elec tors, and keep the said ballot box out of aid room for a long space of time. And that the said vigilance committee. Charles Simrell and Fred Jones,' did wil fully and knowingly violate the provi sions of the rules of the Republican party and the act of assembly In such cases made and provided. Henry' Schlentz. Henry Schlentz, being duly sworn ac cording to law, deposes and says, that the above Information is true and correct as he Is infoaned and verily believes. Sworn and subscribed before me, Jan. 29, lSSW. ' Frederick Fuller, Alderman. Ths Men Entered Hail. At noon J. S. McAnulty, of WUllnms McAnulty, called nt Alderman Ful ler's office and entered ball for Jones and Slmrell In the sum of $300 each. Attorney .Watson said to a Tribune reporter: "I have not been retained as counsel nor do I know anything con cerning the truth or falsity of the charge of Schlentz. I was merely en gaged to draw up .the- nffldavlt In proper legnl form and to represent the plaintiff nt the hearing. The hearing didn't take place. That's all I know about It. Thus far the battle Is all talk and has no smell of gunpowder. I don't know that any more arrests will be made." Quite generally nboiit the city In places where political matters are ills cussed, the Impression orevalls that whatever arrests the bolters contem plate will be scattered between now nnd election day over as long a period as possible In order to keep the voting public agitated and create sentiment against the regular Republican ticket.
