WALLACE, THE MAN-EATER.
World-Famous Hon, Which Will Be
Hero Shortly.
UvuryluidJ' Inriitlslfiuloin lias heard
mid mid nbotit Wallace, the flerco tnnii
catliig lldil which escaped front Ills ciirq
lit New' Vork some few years it go mitl
held the city lu u reign of terror for
sixty hows, when Ins wax finally found
In it stnhlo where he hud killed and
partly devoured it horse. The author
Itles wanted tu shoot htm, hut Hie
daring ('ii)ilnln Uoeacclo, or the Hon-tock-Fernrl
force of trainers, begged to
be allowed to attempt Ills capture, and
llimlly succeeded by means of rope
lassoes. Three weeks later he entered
his cage in an itttemlit to train him, and
Was torn to pieces.
Since then three other trainers have
perished beneath his mighty paws. It
Is said he killed four men before he was
brought to this country. He is, with
out dUestlon, the most ferocious nnd
bloodthirsty of his kind ever seen In
captivity, but nt the same tltno the
handsomest specimen of the b!nck
nmned African Hon ever captured.
Time and time again he has been
doomed to death, but each and every
time his magnificently mnjostle appear
ance has saved him. lie will be seen
here with the Hostock-Ferarl .Mighty

Which will bo opened by the city olll

A BRILLIANT RECITAL.
Given by the Pupils of John T. Wat
kins in College Hall Catholic
Choral Club Assisted.
A brilliant programme and a most
enthusiastic and well pleased audience
was that which packed College hall last
evening. The animal recitals given by
Mr. Watklns' pupils have become very
popular and are looked forward to with
pleasurable anticipation without any
disappointment. Mr. AValklns Is an ex
cellent programme maker, carrying to
a complete conclusion a harmonious
Idea. The one bundled and fifty voices
were prettily grouped amid profuse
decorations.
The first number 'on the programme,
"Daybreak," by Failing, displayed to
tine advantage the beautiful blending
of the voices, the shading, precision and
attack equalling anything ever heard
in this city. The chorus was perfectly
trained and the phrasing given with
beautiful effect. "The Highwayman," a
baritone song, by Woodman, was given
In a rollicking- manner and good style
by Willis Jones, whose voice has grown
smoother and broader. "The Nightin
gale," sung by MIfs Harriet Jackson In
sweet soprano voice, was a pretty num
ber. Her phrasing Is marked by much
Intelligence.
Miss Grace Sprague, In mezzo-contralto
of good quality and wide range,
gave two numbers with flue feeling and
expression, her voice growing more
steady and rotund in quality. A bril
liant soprano voice Is that of Miss Mary
Nlland, for whom, if she works, there is
a. good future. Her head tones are es
pecially good and under fine control.
Her pianissimo passages lend charm to
her singing and reflect the consci
entious work of her teacher.
A beautiful tenor ballad, "Daphne's
Love," was sung by Dan Jones In a
pure tenor voice that is developing
finely, and has bright prospects for
the future. Miss Martha Matthews' and
Miss Viola Jones' voices blended har
moniously In their rendition of the duet,
"Cheerfulness." Their voices combine
sweetness with volume, force with fire,
taste with temperament. The Students'
glee. "Kstudlantlna." by the combined
voices of the Recital chorus and the
Catholic Choral club, again demon
strated the ease with which Mr. Wat
kins masters and handles his singers.
The enthusiasm following the singing
of this bright glee was vociferously pro
longed by the immense audience.
Itlchard E. Watkins, the possessor of
a resonant and ringing baritone voice,
gave with dash a line Hunting Hong,
"The Chase." You can easily detect In
his style that of his teacher and
brother. "O Light Divine," Cavatina,
from the opera "Lindadi Chamonnix,"
demonstrated Miss Jessie Brlstley's
lyric soprano voice and her ability. She
sings with confidence and dramatic In
tensity, reaching with ease the low 1$
Hat and with brilliancy the high H flat
which occur frequently in this Cava
tina, Miss Bristley has Improved very
much since her last recital. Will L,.
Jones, who lias been a pupil of J. 'P.
AVatklns' vocal studio but a term, has
grown In breadth of voice and style
surprisingly. Ills singing of "Oh, for a
Day of Spring," was a treat, Ills "Voce
dl Testa" would make any tenor envy
htm. He sang with fine expression and
style. Miss Irene Kunn has been doing,
such excellent work since her connec
tion with .Mr. AVatklns' studio that her
every appearance Is synonymous with
good worlc. Her singing of the charm
ing ballad, "The Sands of Opo," was a
decided triumph lu tile art of intcfpie
tutloti, Her enunciation is natural, her
voice rich, sympathetic and expressive
and her tone production is polished to
a degree, Uf equally high class was the
selection, "Angus McDonald," sung by
.Miss Viola Jones, whose rich contralto
voice showed to advantage In this
strong, stirring dramatic ballad. She
sang with feeling and used her voice
with much effect. She felt the song
herself, thereby making the audience
feel with her.
Miss Mary Nlland gave a double num
ber, ". Waltz'1 and "May Morning."
In both selections her performance was
beautiful, exhibiting a clear, limpid and
extremely flexible voice of the colora
tura order, Miss Nlland Is purely a
high soprano and In the waltz song
sang high n with ease, "It Was a
I .over and Ills l.ass," a charming and
dainty little composition, was given by
Miss Spraguw and .Mr, Wntklim in their
best style, and received an enthusiastic
recall. The drauiatlo ballad, "Fair
Kllen," for soprano, baritone and
chorus, was a thrilling climax to one
of the finest and most successful pupils'
recitals given here. .Miss Matthews'
inagiilllcent s-opruuo voice, blended with
that noble ami lesouaut basso of John
AW Jones, made .a lilting climax to this
eve of song, and the superb chorus,
under tile direction of Mr. AVatklns,
covered Itself with glory. At thu con
clusion of the cantata the audience
burst Into enthusiastic applause,
The pupils and their able, conscien
tious and painstaking toucher were the
recipients, of much praise, This recital
will linger lu the minds of the vast
audience as a truly musical 'feast of
unalloyed pleasure and edification.
After thu recital Mr, AVatklns enter

City Has 27,700 Taxables and
from This Councils Will Officially
Determine the Number of Com
mon Councllmen Each Wnrd Is En
titled to Have Tax Levy Ordi
nance Passed on Third Reading.
At last night's meeting union
council the city assessors presented n
table showing the number of taxables
In each ward of the city. This Is used
as the base for computing the number
of common eouncltinen each ward Is
entitled to. The law provides that
each ward shall have at least one coun
cilman nnd that the entire body shall
consist of not more than forty mem
bers, To ascertain the basis of repre
sentation the total number of tuxables
Is divided by forty which In this In
stance gives fin I, the total number of
taxables In the city being 7,7G9.
A ward having In addition to the
quota, of C91 three-fifths more than
that number or a total of 11 1 1 Is en
titled lo two f.ouncllman, a ward with
twice CM and three-tlfth of (19-1 or a to
tal of ISIS Is entitled to three members,
etc.
The table which follows gives the
number of taxables In each ward and
the number of councllmen it Is entitled
to:

members instead of one.

FInlay Hoss.
When the select council resolution di
recting that the city purchase fifty
nine copies of the laws passed by the
last legislatuie for the councllmen
came' up Mr. Keller objected to It as a
needless expenditure of money. Sir.
Partridge referred to It as a "Tom fool"
bit of legislation. Mr. Keller moved
that tile resolution be laid on the table
and this was done. He held that one
copy of the laws in the city clerk's
office, where it could be referred to,
would answer all purposes.
Among the select council resolutions
concurred in were the following: Di
recting the director of public safety to
having free vaccination; limiting the

Yesterday was an "off day" for nearly
all. of the contestants in The Tribune's
Educational Contest. Leroy Stanton, of
Scranton, was the only one to score of
the entire thirty-three In the main
table as published yesterday morning.
Eddie .Morris, of South Scranton, re
turned enough points to give him a
place in tho published table this morn
ing. He is now In thirty-third place,
held for the last week or more by
Emanuel Buccl, of Hyde Park,- but
whose name is withdrawn as a conse
quence of his now being thirty-fourth.
Miss Mary Yeager, of Green Ridge,
made her llrst return yesterday. As yet
her score Is not sufficiently large to
give her a place among the llrst thirty
three contestants.
It seems probable' that a number of
the contestants are withholding points
until the last day in June in order to
have a big batch of them to turn In at
the last minute and thereby stand a.
better opportunity to win one of the
two prizes offered for the contestants
who score the greatest number ot
points. There are two reasons why this
should not be done. The first and most
Important Is that it is In direct vio
lation of one of the rules of tho con
test, which says: "All subscriptions
must be handed in at The Tri
bune office within the week in which
they are secured, so that papers may
be sent to the subscribers at once."
The Tribune has always noted fairly
with the contestants and they should
act fairly with each other.
Reason No. 2 why holding back points
should not be Indulged in has a common-sense
argument. If each of the
active workers reserves his show of
strength until the last day all are work
ing in the dark, as no one knows what
the others are doing and, besides, each
contestant's friends are apt to have the
Impression that their champion has lost
Interest In the struggle If his name ap
pears day after day without a change
in standing. One big change n mouth
does not amount to much as n demon
stration of earnestness, not nearly as
much as si dally or frequent gain. Es
pecially Is this true when nil are de
pending upon the same niunoeuver to
win an advantage.
Contestants must bear In mind the
closing hour of the contest for the spe
cial prizes for June. It will be ! o'clock
on Monday afternoon. No points will
be counted lu the June competition that
are received after that hour, either
from contestants residing In this city
or In other communities. The winners
of the $10 and $5 gold pieces will be an
nounced In Tuesday morning's Tribune
