The genius of that promising young dramatist, Elmer R. Vance, for 110/ el scenic and stage effects, shown in such wonderful devises as in bis fir st effort, "The Limited Mail," is intensified and accentuated in his latest aud more ma tured work 'Patent Applied For," which will be seen at Park Theatre, Feb. 18th. There is said to be an irre sislablc cliann in the manner in which the complicated though extremely sim pie plot is developed and each scene is thrilling and unique to an astonishing degree The rescue of a drowning man from his perilous situation i*T e whirl pool of raging water is said lo lie VI re 1 istir, so exciting, that the average au dience fairly holds its breath, while an other particularly strong bit of stage mechanism is a terrific storm it where the whistling of the wind, the surging of a disabled steamer, and the deed of heroism fo lowing the scene ap peals strongly to every lover of the vivid sensational (though wildly so) drama. In selecting artists to interpret this beautiful and romantic play, Manager Vance has spared no expense, and from the wonderful Beatrice, who will enact the exacting role of Inez Hazard a live ly, up-to date young girl, who visits the the city, returning to her quiet country home with a varied assortment of start ling accomplishments to the bright young man, who manipulates the I "props." are exceptionally strong an 1 merit tne econiums so freely bestowed by press and public.

"Kigllt Bells" is a nautical production constructed on a scale differing in many ways from the average farce comedy, and it is refreshing to know that the ar 1 of genuine fun making on the stage, when pantomine, gymnastics ar.d hu mor, coupled with novel scenic effects abound, is not a thing of the past. The Bros. Bryne of cours-, are a "whole Show" in themselves. They are assisted by a capable company who help to make the play a cm plete success. The re volving ship scene, end the trick wagon are features worthy of »)x-cial mention. NEXT WEEK IN PITTSBURG.

Fires. 1 A house on the hill in Duffy town, ~v. Ned by Daniel Kinch and occupied by John Sntliff, was destroyed by fire last Friday afternoon. Ihe house was too far out to be reached by the hose companies who responded to the alarm promptly, but the neighliors prevented the fire from spreading. The old Richey h-use m Renfrew was destroyed by fire, Monday morn : ng The bnilding was owned by Sam uel Mong, and was occupied by himself and three other families. The tire 1 started in the kitchen and spread very rapidly. Mr. Mong carried SI,OOO in Burance. Wednesday evening the Simeon Nix on homestead in Penn twp. was de stroyed by fire, and Payne Nixon aged 17, was badly burned about the face and 011 the right hand. The fire was caused by gas escaping and igniting. A piano was saved from the house, but nearly everything • Ist* was lost, includ ing valuable manuscripts of Mr Nixon. The loss i-> about slopartly insured. Payne was brought to the Nixon House in Butler at 2 o'clock this morning. I loath of A.

M, ('oniiiiiiilicafctl. \ Ihe following is sent us from Barker township with : ! ; to publish A fact that all church attendants know is that the majority of the human race have not enough to eat and wear and are in trouble. Nature demands that the human race be clothed and fed long before educa tion begins. How to shelter the homeless, multi ply loaves of bread increase the fuel and heal the wounds of the school tribe in order to have a sound mind clothed with a sound body, and then yon nre ready to edncate are questions that the Christian directors should endeavor to solye, instead of using club law and animal power, to make more homeless, have more hunger, and instill more sn ffering. This truth at this time maystir out of your head. Just a moment, think of civil liberty your home rent asHunder, your property confiscated, you an exile from your old home and let that thought sink to the bottom of your Mill), and surely there you are ra tioiial enough to decide that nature's law, and that is God's law, is always best.
