The dramatization of the famous novel is even more inter- esting than the reading of it. The play of Dora Thorne opens a wider play upon human emotions and human passions than perhaps any melodrama that has been produced at the Avenue this year. The reading public is familiar with the story, the confession of love, the murder, the pangs of jealously aroused and the vivid description of the wages of sin. The scenery is especially adapted to the pro- duction of this play.” At the Loomis tonight. PERSONAL METION Mrs. Spencer Brougham and daughter, Mrs, M. Plumstead went to Elmira today. F. F.

Division The Lehigh Valley Railroad Company is experiencing consider- men to run their trains on the D S. & S. division. Under the Coxe rule the crew that left Drifton took the train to Amboy and back. , No other manner of doing the work was regarded as feasible, but under the retrenchment polic y of the Lehigh Valley a new rule has been issued. Two brakemen cons duct the train to Penn Haven, where the services of the one is dismissed, and the train proceeds to Amboy with one brakemen Already seven men have quit work and before the week is closed it is said that it will be hard to secure enough men to run the trains. On Tuesday night three trains were scheduled to go to Amboy but no brakeman could be found who would make the run under the new ruling. Now the men are saying that the transferring of the Coxe interests to the Lehigh is not going to be the big benefit to the railroad men that has been predicted. ATTEMPTED SUICIDE Floyd Watts, a Canton man, was found in an unconscious condition in a barn on Troy strect in that place on Tuesday night with his throat cut, and the circumstances point to suicide. A small mirror lay by his side and it is thought he used this in order to correctly locate the veins in the neck. He was at once taken to a doctor's office and at last accounts it is thought he will recover. NOTICE TO CONSUMERS All water rents are now due and payable at the office of the com- pany.
