corded a heartier welcome than An
drew Alack, the singing comedian, who

that the same order of things will oc
cur when he returns to the
Academy of Music this evening,
and once more presents for the editica-
tion of our theatre-going public the
same ueiigiuiiil cimracter. Ills succes-r
the past year was general; everywhere
lie appealed he was greeted with en
thusiastic audiences, and lie lias creat
ed for himself In one short season u.
position in his chosen profession that It
has taken others years to accomplish.

Another equity suit was begun yes

Judge Guuster and he granted a pre

allege that the company has no right
on that part of the street. Hon. John
P. Kelley, Joseph O'Brien, J. Alton
Davis and John It. Edwards are at
torneys for the plaintiffs.
The bill of equity recites the streets
nnd thoroughfares over which the
charter of the Valley Passenger Rull

line of street rallxvay over certain
streets in the city of Seranton, which
included Washington avenue from Ash

includes the space In front of the plain
tiffs' property.
Thnt said consent xvas Invalid be

ington avenue between Ash and Gib
son a distance of upwards one thous
and feet on which at the time of grant
ing said consent the tracks of the
Seranton Suburban Street Railwuy
were luld nnd operated.
That the Vulley Passenger Hallway
company has never by extension or
amendment obtained any franchise to
build a street railway on Washington
avenue from Gibson street to Olivo

That the street railway company Is
now engaged in hiylnir a street railway
