x COMING ATTRACTIONS.
Regular theater patrons keep a men
tal record, lis It were, of all the most
successful metropolitan dramatic pro
ductions, Bnd are therefore keenly
alert regarding the announcement of
a new offering and remarkably quick
to recognise a play as having won
special distinction in all the more im
portant cities. It is for that reason
that an extraordinary Interest is be
ing manifested in the forthcoming
presentation, at the Academy, this
evening, of Russ Whytal'a romnntlc
piny of Southern rentiment. entitled
"For Fair Virginia," which. It Is posi
tively assured, comes here with the
original cast and all the reonlo and ar
tistic equipment that invited so much
exalted praise at the Fifth Avenue
theater, New York, where it enjoyed a
prosperous ns well as a singularly con
spicuous engagement and commanded
the unstinted endorsement of the press.
The brightest of all extravaganzas,
Edward E. Rice's "H92," will appear
here at the Academy next Friday even
ing, Mth its galaxy of prominent art
ists and glittering scenic adornments.
Many new and elaborate Improvements
have been made and up-to-date satires
and specialties Introduced, resulting in
the burlesque being stronger than ever.
The title of Rice's "Surprise Party" is
by no means a misnomer, as the enter
tainment fairly teems with surprises.
Mr. Rice has proved himself such a
genius in the burlesque line that novel
ty Is really the synonomous with the
mention of his name. It is an assured
fact that "1492" has suffered no loss at
the hands of Its new dressmakers. Ow
ing to the engagement being limited the
business here will in all probability be
enormous.
The special engaging feature of the
Bostonians Opera company is the large
and complete orchestra that Is carried
by this organization. This band, which
Is under the direction of S. V. Studley,
is composed of specially selected art
ists and the public are always sure of
perfect Interpretations of the score: es
pecial scenery Is also carried by the
company, and every detail that marks
productions in the metropolis are faith
fully carried out entire. The Hoston
lans will appear here at the Academy of
Music on Saturday evening, with all
the original members of the organiza
tion in the cast of "Robin Hood." Not
ed among the singers are Henry Clay
Barnabee, William H. McDonald, Jes
sie Enrtlett Davis. Eugfn Cowles,
Helen Bertram Henley, C. E. Landle,
George Frothlnghnm. Alice Nielsen,
Jerome Sykes, Harold Blake and others
of equal repute, reinforced by a strong
and effective chorus.
Commencing Thursday, April 9, "The
London Gaiety Girls" will open a three
days' stay at Davis' theater. This big
company needs no Introduction to the
natrons of the theater as it appeared
hera Inst season and gave a perform
ance of the cleanest and highest order.
The programme opens with the "Cen
tury Club" and introduces the entire
company in bloomer. Tho vaudeville
Btars are! The Fergusons, Hddle O'Dcll,
Dot Lnthrop, Hilton the wonder, Keat
ing and Alexander; and the Chnppelle
tsters. The show elosep with the
iautple skit, "The Tramp Astrono.

company In beautiful and ecirtty ward
robes. All scenic ana mechanical ef
fects art oarrisd by the company.

AFTER THE CON FEREN CE
Session at Bingham ton Was in Many
Uajs an Impartant One.
DELEGATES WISELY SELECTED
Msa Wboso Stand lui I High ia Mtttnod-Ura-Pr.
FloyJ'a New Ppsltioa.
Conferoaco O.'fieara sad '
Visitor Nansd.
The forty-fifth session of the Wyom
ing conference, at lilnghamton, has
passed into history. The session has
been an Important one in many ways.
The cas of Rev. J. V. Hogan was. set
tled, and the minister put themselves
on record 83 favrrlr.g the election of
women us delegates to the general con
ference. The election of derogates to tho gen
eral confereneo was a matter ot con
siderable Importance. The honor was
a high one and was eagerly sought af
ter by a large number. The selection
of Itev. J. G. Kckman to head the dele
gation from old Wyoming is generally
conceded to have been a very wise one
and one which will redound to the hon
or of the conference which elected him.
In Rev. Slaniey fi. Hard, the con
ference will have a man whose
energy and wtdo ami varied ex
perience will lie of service in
that gathering. The remaining mem
bers of the delegation are not unrepre
sentative men, but men who are par
ticularly able servants of God.
From the unnnlmnus manner in
which Oeorco Ilennett.of Wilkes-Barre,
received the election as lay delegate
from Pennsylvania, he cannot but
prove satisfactory.
FRIENDLY FEELINGS.
Throughout the whole session the
best of feeling reigned, Warm debates
often occurred, but In every instance it
wes simply an exchange of honest opin
ions. Bishop Vincent gave entire satisfac
tion ns a presiding otlleer. His judicial
and broad liberal mind made him at nil
times equal to all tho questions which
nroac. lie Is a man of strong person
ality nnd of much reserve force.
While the Pennsylvania delegates
would have been pleased to have seen
the conference held at West Plttston
next year, there Is no opposition felt or
expressed to going to Oneonta. This
Is u pretty little town nnd one easily ac
cessible. The Methodists of this con
ference may rest assured thnt New
York state la always ready to give them
a vnrm welcome and make their stay,
even though nhnrt, a pleasant one. One
that will support tho sentiment of the
old "Empire State" In thin matter.
The appointment of Rev. L. C. Floyd,
of Simpson church, Scranton, as pre
siding elder. Is already receiving words
of eommendptlon from the Blnghamton
clergy ns well as from those outside of
that city. He is a gentleman of high
standing, of much ability and his heart
la wholly consecrated to the work of
furthering the interests of the church.
He has been assured that In coming
Into the Binghamton district he will
have the hearty support of every min
ister and of every Methodist church
Member.
Dr. Floyd will take up his work at
quite a critical time. It is In a high
state of perfection, as a result of the
untiring efforts of the late Rev. J. O.
Woodruff, but nowhere are any doubts
expressed that Dr. Floyd is perfectly
competent to meet tho task placed be
fore him.
