IT WAS NOT MORGAN.
In Saturday's Tribune on the local
page mention was made of the drop
ping of a curtain on the Crescent or
chestra while a dance was going on
Friday night. The Tribune said . that
William 'J.' 'Morgah was In charge of
the hull. This Is not true. It was not
William J. Morgan, but another young
man by the same name. William J.
Morgan called at the West Side office
Saturday. He wished to state posi
tively that it was not he, personally,
who was referred to in the Item, and
he wanted a corertion made. Whoever
It was, readers will bear in mind that
Itwas not the William J. Morgan who
called at this ollice.

with slates, while others lurk around

GOV. PINOREE'S PROGRAMME
Michigan's New Executive Lays Oat
nn Extensive Reform Scheme.
Detroit, Nov. 15. Governor Plngrce's
nearest adviser. Colonel John Atkinson,
who was elected to the legislature at
the personal request of the governor
elect, has outlined the reforms which
the governor will attempt to carry out.
Colonel Atkinson says he will recom
mend primary elections, doing away
with conventions, giving the nomina
tions to the people direct; two-cent-a-mlle
fare on all the railroads in the
lower peninsular; the taxation of rail
road property the same as other prop
erty; the application of the principles
of the Interstate commerce commission
to commence within the state, so as to
secure fairness, a vote of all the people
on public franchises; such as street
railways, as a check upon the corrup
tion of .aldermen and the like; the sup
pression of trusts and monopolies as
far as the state can go, laws against
overcapitalization of corporations and
swindles committed by the promoters,
and laws against coercion, and par
ticularly to prevent public corporations
of a quasi-public character, like rail
roads and banks, from exerting undue
inlluence In elections.
The colonel admits that the railroads
will try to control the organization of
both houses In order to knock out the
governor, but the governor will press
the measures far enough to sharply
raise the Issues and bring the ques
tions direct before the people, irom
another and equally authentic source
It Is learned that Governor Pingree In
tends to prohibit any of his immediate
official family from accepting any sort
of free pass. He also Intends to reduce.
If possible, the number of "snaps" like
the deputy oil and salt inspector.
THE SULTAN S PROMISES.
It Is Thought There Is Little Pros
pect That He Will fulfil Them.
London, Nov. IS. Notwithstanding
the fact that the Sultan has promised
to execute sweeping reforms through
out his dominions, his promises are still
looked at askance by those here who
have had experience of his artfulness
and lack of good Intention.
The alarmist reports alleged to hare
been telegraphed from Constantinople
to the effect that the situation there Is
very threatening are not borne out by
the action of the representatives of the
powers there. Baron von Caiice, the
ambassador and doyen of the diplo
matic corps, has gone to Cairo to spend
a holiday. M. Nelldoff. the Russian
ambassador, was In Vienna on Thurs
day night. He Is going to St. Peters
burg. Baron von Saurma-Jeltsch, the
German ambassador, Is somewhere In
South Germany.
Unless the Sultan springs another
massacre, diplomacy at Constantinople
will have nothing to do for another
month. M. Cambon, the French am
bassador, alone remains et his post,
and he has been Instructed k his gov
ernment to closely watch the applica
tion of tbe promised reforms.
MAGGIE CLINE
ANDJER SONGS
Tbey Attracted a Large Audience to tbe
Frolhiofbam Saturday Night
ON BROADWAY ONLY INCIDENTAL
It is of the Highly Improbable, I'ltra
Mclodramatic ' Type Octoroons
Pleased Two Lnrge Audiences nt
the Academy of Muic-Attractions
at the Flay Houses of tho City Dur
lug the Week.
Maggie Clihe received a right, royal
reception at the Frothlngham Satur
day night, where she appeared as the
heroine and the bright particular star
of "On Broadway," a melodrama which
Is all that the word Implies and more.
The curtain had been up but a few min
utes when Maggie dashed on the stage
like the fas end of Friday's blizzard.
She was given a hearty "hand" and
soon after delighted the audience with
"Arrah Go On, Your Only Teatlng,"
which evoked thunders of applause.
It wus in the last act. however, that
Miss Cline aroused her audience to n
display of Its latent possibilities In the
way of a demonstration.
"Throw Him Down McCloskey" did
the trlclc.
That classic ditty In which the prow
ess of one Dun McCloskey Is told In
languuge chaste and choice, has been
sung before In Scrunton without caus
ing much of a furore, but it was alto
gether different Saturday night.
Then Maggie Cline sung It.
Her voice is nothing to brnoc about;
In fact. It would be dltllcult to say In
Just what way It should be cluspltied,
but she imparts what the novelist
wuuld term local color, with a skill that
Is unsurpassed. Jt Is this faculty that
has niude Maggie Cllne's singing fa
mous notwithstanding her voice.
When she had related the first stanza
of the adventures of McCloskey a mild
wave of applause swept over the hou?o,
and when the second stanza was com
pleted the manifestations of approval
were more than enthusiastic. When
the ditty was llnished and McCloskey
had been gloritled. the applause swept
through the gallery like the whistle of
a West Indian hurricane. The balcony
and pit were scarcely less demonstra
tive. Miss Cline tried to speak the
lines of the drama that follow the song,
but the audience would not have It.
They wanted to hear more about Mc
Closkey. Finally the singer walked
down to tho footlights and begged tnu
audience to excuse her. It was one of
her characteristic little speeches. She
had worked so hard In the song that
really she could not sing another line.
She hoped the audience would excuse
her; she knew it would, and it did af
ter one irrepressible Individual made a
demand that Miss Cline sing "Mary
Ann Kehoe."
As to tho melodrama It Is of tho high
ly Improbable ultra-melodramatic type,
but no one pays any particular atten
tion to that. In the opening art all
kinds of characters are Introduced at
the home of the Brady's, away down
town. The authors evidently saw no
Incongruity in bringing them all to
gether again in the fashionable home of
Mrs. Scarborough, on Mndlson Square,
nor In having Mrs. Scarborough accept
the proposal to marry Thomas Brady,
broken down contractor.
Miss Cline was supported by a fairly
good company, which Included John G.
Sparks, George W. Howard, John T.
Burke and others.
Isham's "Octoroon" company gave
two performances at the Academy of
Music Saturday and Saturday night,
nnd highly pleased two large audiences
The singing of Mme. Flower and Mr.
FUller was roundly applauded at both
performances.
At the Academy of Music to-night
John Grlfllth, a young tragic actor, will
be seen In a magnificent production of
Shakespeare's tragic Idyl. "Itldiari
HI." which Mr. Griffith has this season
added to his repertoire, and those lov
ers of the legitimate drama who attend
will be treated to something new ami
original In conception. Mr. Grltlith Is
conceded to be the greatest Imperson
ator of 'Mephlstopheles In Goethe's
"Faust" on the American stage, and
it Is his ambition to place his perform
ance of the hunchback Duke of Gloster
far above his Impersonation of the
Prince of Darkness. The scenery re
quires a speclnl car for its transporta
tion and Is snid to be the handsomest
used In the tragedy. He cr.mes well re
ommended by the newspapers in the
towns in which he has played.
Rich and Maeders comedians will be
seen at the Frothlngham to-morrow
(Tuesday) evening In that very funny
farce comedy. "A Pair of Jacks," direct
from Its triumphs In Washington.
Montreal and the leading largest cltio
of the country. The plot hinges on the
remarkable similarity of Dr. Jack and
Judge Jack, who make love to two
seminary girls, who In turn, believing
them to be millionaires, accept singly
the proffered love and declarations, ap
point meetings which are attended by
the diH'tor and Judge, each In turn, but
unknown to the other. This makes a
complication of events so funny that
the audience is forced from one situa
tion to the other so fast that the plot Is
almost lost in the uproarious fun occa
sioned. Th cast is one of the best
ever set to this successful comedy, and
includes I'dell and Pearce, George
Rlcketts. Sol Aiken, Jessie West, Julia
Aiken. Marion Gray, Nellie Blanchard,
Nora Stanley and others.
One of the most famous and elabor
ate spectacles known to the American
stage. Hanlon's "Superba." comes to
the Frothlngham next Wednesday and
Thursday evenings, and the manage
ment of that beautiful theater promise
their patrons the most elaborate stage
production ever offered In Scranton.
"Superba" Is a pantomime extrava
ganza, and is brim full of bewildering
tricks and transformations. People
disappear and reappear miraculously
from somewhere else, walls turn inside
out, and inanimate objects walk around
the stage with grace and speed. There
is said to be no end to the wealth of
new tricks running nil through the
piece. Among the surprises is the "En
chanted Mirror."
8am T. Jack's famous Creoles will
open at Davis' theater this afternoon
for three days. They are presenting an
entirely new bill these days, and among
the nobblrst and most original of many
novel features Is a brief but complete
comic opera, with these dark children
of the Southland singing every role
from the sweetest soprano to the heavi
est basso. The experiment of a Creole
opera, something never before attempt
ed, originated with Mr. Jack, was tried
In Chicago, and proved so immensely
successful that It was retained, en
larged and made on of the best features
of the show. "Pinafore" was the opera
selected and the way the dusky singers
memorize and sing the lines and act the
varied roles Is enough to win the hearty
applause of the entire audience In any
theater of th country.
The sale of Feats for the International
Opera company rpens at the Frothlng

DYNAMITE FIEND'S WORK.
A Dastardly Attempt te Murder the
Family of Frank Konjo.
Detroit, Nov. 15.--The house of Frank
Konjo, a Pole, In the Michigan ave
nue road, a mile outside of the city
limits was wrecked by the explosion
of two sticks of dynamite about 10.30
o'clock last night and three persons
were seriously injured, two of them
probably fatally. Those Injured are:
Frank Ko;iJo, body and legs terribly
lacerated, will probable die; Bub
Ewers, both eyes blown out. skull frac
tured, probably fatally Injured; Jose
phine Konjo, daughter of Frank Kunjo,
badly cut and bruised.
Seven other persons who were sleep
ing In the house at the time of the ex
plosions occurred escaped Injury.
The explosions evidently were the re
sult of a deliberate plot to murder
Konjo and family in( settlement of on
old feud. One of the charges of dyna
mite had been placed under Josephine's
bedroom and the other under that oc
cupied by Konjo. Josephine nnd Ewers
were sitting In Josephine's room when
the first explosion occurred, the charge
shooting straight up through the tloor
Into Ewers' face, part of It striking
the girl. Awakened by the noise of the
explosion, Konjo Junked out of bed
Just in time to receive the- full benellt
of the second charce. Konjo and
Ewers were taken to the Emergency
hospital, frightfully lacerated and
bruised, and the doctors have little
hope of -saving their lives.
The police are looking for a Pole
:nmed itnsolski. whom the Konjos
charge with having committed the out
rage. THE VENEZUELAN CASE.

.lie m lie rs of the Arbitration Court.
London, Nov. 15. Sir Richard Web
ster, uttorn.-y general. Is supposed to
lie disqualilled for membership In the

committed to an opinion through his
advocacy of the British case. Sir Ed

ber of the Judicial committee of tho
privy council, nnd Lord Davey, a lord
of appeal In ordinary, and also a mem
ber of the Judicial committee of the

,0UR GRANDHOTHERS,
If you will stop and think, you will re
member them as hale and hearty old
women, strict and careful in things that
pertain to all the physical conditions of
poth her children and grandchildren ;
careful, because she did not come in con
tact with the present day temptations d
fashion. If you remember wheu she wat
forty-five to fifty-five years of age tht
autumn of her life she was a pleasant
facedand rosy checked bripht-eyed woman
The artificial conditions of a high state ci
civilization nns Drougni aoout tne neces
sity for a natural and scientific aid to wom
an The hustle to keep even with the
world's rapid pace, high living and untmt
ural hours for sleep, brings in its train r
fickla appetite, an impoverished conditio!,
of the blood, and there you are a fit sub
ject for a deranged functional organism.
Do you know what this means? It mean
that as a woman you will, when you leave
this life, have only partially paid youi
sacred debt to posterity by leaving or
your legacy a weak and puny off spring
Every woman should take Nux-Puospho
during menstruation. Every mother
would do well to see that her daughter
takes it during that critical period when
she is budding into womanhood. It will
prevent future misery by strcngtcnitig the
functional organs and bringing about a
healthy action of the liver and kidneys
aud regulute the bowels. It has prevent
ed the total collapse of thousands of wom
en when passing the changing point of
life.
Nux-Phospiio is sold throughout the
civilized world, is an absolutely scientific
preparation. Endorsed by physicians.
If your druggist is behind the age and
does not keep it, go to an up-to-date drug
store or write to us. THS NCX-FuoSFUO
