THEY FAVOR M'KINLEY.
Result of a Poll of Workmen in Car
Shops Announced at Meeting of
Central Republican Club.
The Central Republican club met
last night and from this time on until
after election will meet every Monday
night. Last night's session was an im
portant one. An interesting feature
was a statement made by William
Connell. He said that In recent poll
of 630 workingmen in the car shops to
learn their sentiment on the Issues
presented by the two great parties, it
was found thnt 200 f the number were
Democrats, but that sixty of them pro
pose this time to vote for McKinley
and sound money.
Of the Republican majority among
these men only ten were found win
said they believed in free silver and
the Chicago platform. Mr. Connell
said that there was no prearranged
selection of these workingmen, they
were picked out promiscuously.
The club decided to purchase a Mc
Kinley and Hobart banner tn string
across the street In front of the quar
ters In the Price building, and In a
businesslike way subscriptions were
taken up in the meeting and the $125
that the banner will cost was sub
scribed In a few minutes nnd there
were no large individual contributions,
but a number of smnll ones given with
a willing hand and exemplifying thu
enthusinsm that the object of the
money aroused. Colonel K, H. Ripple,
Major Everett Warren, and Hon. W.
W. Watson were appointed a commit
tee on banner.
There will be a rousing mass meet
ing In October, and committees will
soon be set to work making the ar
rangements. Application for member
ship were received from William Mac
Lean, E. K. Hall, John F. Scragg. John
T. Howe, A. T. Law, and Nelson G.
Teets, and .were acted upon favorably.
Speeches were made by Major War
ren, Mr. Wntson, Colonel Ripple, Sam
H. Stevens, George Okell, and Mr. Con
nell. Each felt confident of substan
tial victory for the party In the county
and country In November;
Colonel Ripple was chairman and In
the absence of Alderman W. S. Millar,
Captain George B. Thompson acted as
secretary.
John H. Thomas, chairman of the

LILLIAN RUSSELL IN
AN AMERICAN BEAUTY
Scored a Decided Success at the Froth
Ingham Last Night
LARGE AND BRILLIANT AUDIENCE
Encouraged the Member of the Com
your to Do Their BestOpera Was
Vive with a Smoothness and Fin
ish Barely Seen at a First Perform.
aiireIti Sncccus Predicted by
Manager Lederer.
Lillian Russell achieved a decided
success last night as the dashing
Widow Dulmont In "An American
Heauty," a three act comic opera, the
Joint work of Hugh Morton nnd Gus
tave Kerker. Last night It had its
first public production In the Frothlng
ham which was crowded by one of
Scranton's most representative audi
ence. A number of New York the
atrical writers and men Interested In
matters theatrical also saw the per
formance. There wns an air of expectancy about
the audience after the curtain went up
at 8.20.- The moment when the fair Lil
lian would get her cue to come on the
stnge was awaited with interest, at.d
when it did arrive and she came trip
ping down to the footlights she was
given a magnificent reception. From
thnt moment she had her nudletic; with
her and the unstinted applause given
encouraged Miss Russell and the mem
bers of the company to do their best.
They imported a dash and spirit to
their work that carried the opera along
with a smoothness rarely seen on an
opening night.
Of the. opera itself tt must be s.tld
that It Is not opera nt nil as that term
Is usually understood, but It certainly
Is n bright, clever, up-to-date creation
with music that Is catchy and ntt-c-tlve
enough to make It tnipular with
the great army of theatregoers.
Miss Russell was In good voice and
every number she sang was heartily
encored. Three encores were demand
ed after she sang that seductive ditty
in the second uct about the French
maiden and the French ball. The
singing of Richie Ling, the tenor, was
a greatly appreciated feature of the
performance. The honors among the
comedians went to Jerome Sykes, al
though there are at least three other
very clever fun-makers in the com
pany. The story of the opera wns printed
in The Tribune yesterday morning ond
It will be unnecessary to repeat It here.
It is embellished with a wealth of gor
geous scenery, costumes nnd stage ef
fects, In which poems of color hav
been worked out with true artistic ef
fect. In the second and third acts there
were specialties by Lillian Thurgate,
Walter Slmms, nnd the "Rouge et
Nolr" dancers. From this city the
company goes to Willlamnport.
Manager George W. Lederer and tho
author nnd composer, who sa.wi last
night's production, were well pleased
and Mr. Lederer unhesitatingly pre
dicted that it will be a big success.
