WAITE . ENGAGEMENT OI EXS
Copmuny Seen at the Frethlngham in
"the Itlack I'lac"-"Grlmca' Cellar
. Door" at the Academy and "From
Sire to Son" at 1btIs Theater.
Walte'a Comedy company began a
two weeks' engagement at the r rotli
liilthum lust night by presenting '"me
Ulttck Flag" before un audience that
crowded every purt of the house. Mr.
Walte lias u very strong company this
season, u fact detuonstrated by the
manner In which last night's Urania
was given. "The Hlack KIuk" 1ms been
fainlliar to theater-Koers for years, but
It was Invested with a new Interest last
night by the good work of the mem
bers of the Wuite company.
Cunieron Clemens, who was seen In
the role of Harry (Ilyndon. Is a graceful
young actor who apparently has u
promising future before hhn. He Is
forceful anil earnest in his method und
In the niuny dramatic scenes of the play
lu ull of which he figured prominently,
his acting showed thoughtful discrimi
nation. The comedy lines of the drama were
assigned to William It. t'huce und Will
lani Harbour, who kept the audience
highly uinuscd. As the stone fakir at
the prison Mr. Barbour gave, a tine
piece of character anting that was
hugely enjoyed.
Miss Kutherlne Crego, the leading
lady of the company, appeared to good
advantage as Xunnil Ht ml ford. She is
pretty and clever and a very capable
actress. Other -members of , the csst
who created a good impression last
night were Henrietta St. Kelix. Annie
Alnsley, Lee Sterret't, W.'A. Aloriarity
ami Mamie Harvey.
Incidental to the drama, Walte's Con
cert orchestra, under the - leadership
of Professor Vincent F. Irolli, rendered
a number of selections. It is a splendid
musical organization, and the descrip
tive piece, "A Day with the Circus,"
which closed the pro:;ranune, was rap
turously applauded. A. II. Knoll and
Marie .McNeil played cornet solos und
duetts. They ure a strong feature of
the show. Before the peiioiinunce lust
evening Wuile's Brass bund gave a con
cert on Wyoming uveuue in front of the
theater uml will give u similar concert
before the afternoon und evening per
formances each day during the en
gagement, weather permitting.
This ul'ternoon the company will be
seen in "Kathleen Mavournceii," und
tonight in ".Michael Slrogofl'."
OltlAlKS' CKM-iA It IXHiK.
James It. Mackle, lie of the large
mouth und terrible grimace, was the
Btar of an aggregation of farce comedy
artUtd that produced "Urlmes' Cellar
Unor" ut the Academy of Music last
night. .Muckle first won fame for him
self by his performance hi the rede of
"lil Imsey" in "A Bunch of Keys." There
was a distinct flavor of Hoytiun meth
ods and humor in the furce In which
Muckle was seen last night, and the star
did U number of things that made
llieatei'-goets howl when "A Bunch of
Keys" first made Its appearance on the
farce comedy horizon. As u tribute to
the durability of that style of humor, it
might be remarked here that many' per
sons In the audience last night laughed
when Mackie exploited the same old
Ideas,
Taken altogether, "Crimes' Cellar
lioor" Is an amusing entertainment, it
Is liberally sprinkled throughout with
specialties, the greater part of which
nre given by a bevy of pretty young
women head' d by Louise Sunford. The
Muhr sisters do some clever dancing
and a good quartette rendered several
selections which were highly appre
ciated. STKOXn ATTRACTION AT DAVIS'.
"From Sire to Son," one of Milton
Nobles' dramatic creutions, was given
at Davis' theater yesterday afternoon
by a cu pable company led by Mr. und
Mrs. Robert Wuyne. The story of the
play Is very interesting ntul Is told with
some originality. Scenic effects are
better than usual ami the cust Includes
two especially excellent actors, Mr.
Wuyne unci J. Irving Southard, liose
Addle Is pretty, and tilled the purt of
Amelia Slockup to u nicety.
Miss Adelle and Frank Boiiman, a
man with it flexible face, sing a catchy
song. Tlu-y were recalled many times.
.Manager Davis has u show in "From
Sire to Son" which is above the stand
ard of the average popular price house.
It contrasts greatly lu purity to the
show of last week. Four more presen
tations will be given up to Wednesday
night inclusive w ith perl'oi manics In
the ufternoon.
TOMIXG ATTRACTIONS.
This evening nt the Acndcmy of
Music there 'will lie a great produc
tion of "The Brooklyn Handicap," con
cerning which the Philadelphia Times
says: "The plot turna upon the life of
an adventuress, who cuius entrance
into a banker's family, only to bring
it on the verge of ruin. She is appar
ently successful, but her plans are
thwarted by the shrewdness of a niece
of the banker's. The banker's son has
taken S.'i.oui) from his father's safe to
meet a note, und this, too, is restored,
nnd the Brooklyn Handicap proves the
means of restoration. The young man
is without funds, but bis nervy cousin
places all her money on 'Dr. Mice." and
from the winnings restores the sum
taken. The (dot is a not Improbable
one, und Is never spoiled In straining
nfter effects. The fourth net. the "C.reat
Brooklyn I landlcnp,' must be seen to lie
fully uiipreciated. The horses, the
Jockeys, the crowd In the gland stand,
the excitement of the nice, the thril
ling tlntsh, upon which so much de
pends, art) ull so lifelike that they
hallle description. Five times ilid the
curtain ascend on the horses, and gal
larlrs vied with the lower part of the
house in vociferous cheers. As a stir
ling, up-to-date play, the 'Brooklyn
Handicap' hus before it a winter of
certain success.

Joseph Hart, the comedy end of. the
well-known tlrm of lllalieii A- llurtb
which uppenrs at the Academy of
Music tomorrow evening, has scored a
great success with his new musical
comedy furce, "A Cay did Boy." The
play Is said to be a step or several steps
higher than anything that Mr. Hurt
lifts aspired to in the past, and the
churui derivation which he gives to For
rest Tive Is worthy to rank alongside
of those supposed to be higher up. The
company niipmirtlhfr Mr. Hart Is said
to be the strongest ever gathered to
gether for farce comedy, among whom
are Carrie lie Mar. Slay Thompsun,
l.eoiia Amrose, Adel Archer. Al Leech.

GILLS 1 01 LI) XOT BE FOUND..
Papers in the O"o Warranto Proceedlnes
Could Not lie Scrcd.
Bernard Giles, of Wlnton boahugh,
was a much sought after man Satur
day and yesterday mornlnK. but he was
as turn est around his usual haunts
as If the ground opened and swallowed
htm up. Ilis: right to a seat in the
council of Wlnton Is contested by
James Strong who ran against hint ut
the recent election and was defeated
by five votes. .
The ground on which the opposition
t (Mies Is bused was set forth in The
Tribune yesterday: namely, that he
has not paid borough tax within a year,
and cannot therefore be an elector of
Wlnton, and ls not according to law
entitled to his seat.
The rule to show cause why a writ
of quo warranto should not Issue which
was obtained Saturday by Attorney T.
V. Fowderly. representing Strong, was
niade returnable at o'clock yesterday
afternoon with the understandlii?r that
notice of it should be forthwith served
on Giles.
As soon as the rule was Issued by the
court, the papers were placed In the
hands of Sheriff Clemons. who sent
Deputy Sheriff Thomas Jay up to Win
ton to serve Olles with the writ. Mr.
Jay knows every foot of territory In
Wlnton nnd was the proper man to
send out, but (-lies could not bo found.
Mr. Jay went up again yesterday morn
ing und called ut the mines and home
und usual haunts of the respondent
but tile guest was fruitless.
The return made by Sheriff Clemons
to court yesterday was that after due
and diligent search dies could not be
found. It Is strongly suspected that he
left town to evade the service of the
writ, so that he would not have to an
swer yesterday afternoon. The coun
cil of Wlnton met lust night and (tiles
was probably around to take his seat.
If Strong wants to follow the matter
further he will have to renew Uje writ,
but in the meanwhile Giles will have
his seat in council.
TO l'KEVi:.T OVFRl'LOWS.
Washington Avenue f lats Sewer Tioiihlo
to no Abated.
The experience of the past week lias
proved beyond a doubt that something
must be done to relieve the sewer on
Washington avenue tints. The streets
and neighboring cellars have been
Hooded ut every storm nnd damuge
suits will undoubtedly result. The
cuuse of the trouble is that the sewer
cannot nccouiinodaio the volunm of
water which Mows down from Cedar
avenue, und the other higher portions
of the district. The water is carried
ull light where there is an Incline to
the sewer, but w hen II renches the level
portion on the Mats the How Is not no
swift, und us a consequence the water
pours through the manholes Into the
streets.
To remedy this, iStrcet Commission! r
Kinsley piopses to lap the sewer where
It crosses Roaring Brook on its way to
the river and erect ut that point an
overflow pipe which will he lower than
the outlets of the manholes on the
streets, and muke it of surltcieiit size to
curry off at least oive-lhltd of the
water. This, he feels confident, will
prevent any further overflows.

CITY WAS FAR SKJIITI U.
Made Provision Against Contingencies
hick Have Now Arisen.
Mayor Council yesterday signed tlio
resolution directing- the city controller
to pay the Barber Asphalt company's
bill for paving Rouiing Brook bridge
out of the balance still due the I'hoetilx
Bridge company. ' A similar resolution
to reimburse Ceorge Dougherty for
painting the bridge Is now on its way
through councils.
The Bridge company is disputing, the
paving bill on the grounds t hut the
Tructlon company should be held re
sponsible for the cost of paving be
tween Its tracks Just us they ure on
any, other thoroughfare uccoidlng to
the stipulations of its franchise.
By a wise provision of the contract
Willi the Bridge company these dis
putes cannot keep sub-contractors nut
of their Just dues, and it also prevents
the possibility of these sub-contrnctoi a
losing by the possible Insolvency of
the Bridge company.
