Lent some peo ple may gain n mistaken notion of the proposed "Song Cycle" In which the Rubalyat of Omar Khayyam to be ren dered In this city. It mny be well to men tion thnt It Is not to be "danced" but Ming. Of course these quatrains of the old Persian poet are jiiFt now tho fad of tho hour. Everyone is reading the ltubul yet, and entertainments In which the ex quisite poetry Is woven are presented In various forms. In Scranton the Interest awakened is in the "Song Cycle." After working three days nnd ns ninny nights upon the wreck which oc curred lust Saturday night on th? switch nenr Holden colliery, tho old en gine, "Central Grant," was put on Its logs agnln last evening nnd taken to the repair shops In this city. "Cicnerat Orant" Is very much broken down ns a result of the smash-up. Tho engine Is one of tho oldest In the pos Hesslon of tho .Delaware, Lackawanna and Western company and even In Its old age was able to give a good account of Itself In tho dally work of hauling "empties" to and "loadeds" from the (Pyne, Taylor and Holden collieries. In tho accident Saturday the "Gen eral" carried on as few engines could and live to tell of it. The day, It will be remembered, wns wet and the rails on tho Ions grndo leading from the Taylor colliery crossover to the Pyna colliery were covered with sleet. It Is a very steep grade und as ninny as n half-dozen collisions have happened there within the past dozen years. CAME 'HOUND THE CCKVK. While another engine wns pushing "empties" Into the Taylor colliery "General Grant." with twenty-seven loaded cars In tow, rounded the curve, about two hundred feet away, nnd came bounding down the hill. Whether there was a "Hag" out or no has not been decided by the Investigating of llclals. Hut the rails were .slippery, and though "General Grant" was "bucking water" to the best of its abil ity the engineer saw ho couldn't stop in time. When the crash cunie "Gen eral Grant" passed clear through an empty box car. So great was the weight of the loaded cars behind that the engine turned clean about, and after passing through the box car her tender was where the pilot used to be, and the head of the engine pointed west, where before it pointed east. Seven cars were piled sky-high and in all shapes. When the wrecking crew found "General Grant" that worthy reposed at the bottom of a flftecii-foot em bankment. A brand-new track was built under her. ON THE RAILS AGAIN. The track was then extended on an easy grade for a distance of one hun dreds yards and Joined to the main track. Last evening heavy cables were secured to the "General" and a healthy engine pulled her up to the main track. She was hauled to tho shop like a dead thing. Her smoke stack stu-:k out from the tender. The engine will be remodelled accord ing to President Trrtesdale's new no tions about heavier casting machines. Youth's Secret. ) Ayerts j Hair Vigor restores color to gray hair. i "Ellon's Isle." Tho song "Hall to tho Chief" was recited, and it was regretted by tho audlenco that the length of tho programme did not permit also Ellen's song, "Soldier Rest, Thy Warfare's O'er." The scene where Roderick Dhu nnd Malcolm Graeme strovo in their llcrco rivalry over Ellen's hand was well portrayed, as were tho strong sketches of Allan Bane and Douglas. Tho rather monotonous rhythm of the poem Is not one that readily lends Itself to recitation, because of tho danger of degenerating Into sing-song by tho voice. This was avoided by the speaker, who displayed a prodigious memory In reciting without perceptible hesitation long selections from ulmost every canto. The climax where Fltz James reveals himself and tho "Snowdoun'ti Knight Is Scotland's King," was given with dra matic effect, Do You? SCOTT'S "LADY OF THE LAKE.: Rov.
