END OF THEATRICAL SEASON.
Ontv Ono .Mora Attraction Likely to

Owing to the war excitement the the

IN FRONT Oh THli

Sciantoti Is not the only clt ot which
this Is tiue. All over the country the

disbanded for the season because ot
tho manner in which the war Is re
ducing box ofllce iccelpts.
It is ptob.iole that Heranton will
have only one more theitrlcal perform
ance this season. That will be a new
cotnedv by Hovt which will be seen nt
the Lyceum for one night.
The senson In this citv Ins been veiy
successful considering tho geneinl con
dition of the times. Harvey Long hn.s
demonstrated that he is a thoughtful
ns well as an aggressive manager and
what Is ptobablv better than either,
he knows what theatie-goers want and
endeavors to give It to them, but al
ways with a saving eye to the proprie
ties. As a whole the attractions at the
Academy and Lyceum during the sea
son hnve been of a meritorious charac
ter and better as to their moral tone
than tliPse seen at tho average theater
of tho country of a similar clas3.

Judge Gunster In a lengthy opinion
yesteidny granted Dr. S. C. Snpp an
Injunction icsttnlnlng the defendnnt
party ftom using the worels, "New
Yoil; Dental Parlors" upon or In their
notices, signs or advertisements, or
In any way Indicating thnt their place
of business Is that of the plaintiff or
tinder his management or corttrol: nnd
that tho defendants should pay tho

About four months after Dr. Papp

City Solicitor M. A. McGlnley has (
furnished the boaiel of ie vision nnd
appeal an opinion on tho Delaware,
Lackawanna and AA'estern company's
appeal from the lecent assessments

struction) and the exemption of the
other (repairing)." Ho concludes with
the statement thnt of the shops as
