' Tlio Waifs of New York," showing two
trains crossing tlio Harlem railroad bridgo in
opposite directions, whilo tlio two Waifs are
shown hanging from the trcstlo work of the
hrldee Underneath. It is ono of the most
thrilling and realistic scenes over witnessed
upon any stngo. " The Waifs of Now York"
will bo nroduced in Ferguson's thcatro
this evening.
MODEL MINSTRELS.
The street parade of the Swcenoy, Alvido,
(lormon & Goetze's Model Minstrels yester
day was by far the finest exhibition of the
kind that has been seen on our streets in
recent years. The band is an excellent one,
and its concerts attracts large crowds. The
performance last evening was first class, and
the largo audience present wai delighted
from tho raising of tho curtain to the end.
The Models are gentlemen, and deserve well
nt tho hands of tho public. Qreentburg, Intl.,

Ferguson's thoatro to-morrow evening.

Washington Camp, No. 200, 1". 0. S. of A
of Shenandoah, will produce the war drama,
"Drummer Boy, or Spy of Shlloh," on tho
Kith and 17th inst. l'hil J. Council has
cousented to take tho part of Frank Ktidtlege,
a dashing young Southerner and uncompro
mising rebel. Mr. Council assumed the charac
ter for several soasons when tho piece was
presented by local amateurs and ho showed
such excellent conception of the rolo that
ever since ho is in universal demand when
ver it is produced. His name in tho cast
uives assurance of a successful rendition of
the popular drama, and Camp 208 may prido
itself m securing his services. Miners

ELECTRIC SPARKS.
Progress on the Schuylkill Traction
Company's Lines.
Hereafter four cars, Instead of three, will
bo run continually between Shenandoah and
Girardvilto. In order to keep tho cars run
uing more regular on this branch and reduce
tho running time by having more close
connections at turnouls tho company will
mako several changes along tho line. Tho
turnout at tho Kohlnoor dirt bank is to bo
abandoned and one is t bo placed near tho
fan houso on Glover's Hill for uso In its
stead. The turnout at Lost Creek will also
be abandoned and a new ono will bo made at
Cleary's crossing. These changes will lower
the running tiino through the valley con
siderably mid shorten the waiting tlnio at
each end.
County Detcctivo Amour, who is also
special oflicer for tho Traction Company, has
been handsomely uniformed. Tho suit is
mado of the finest navy blue cloth orna
mented with handsomely designed brass
buttons bearing tho company's monogram.
Tho railway is now carrying an average of
11,000 passengers per week.
Tho Mahanoy City branch of tho railway
is doing a Bplendld ono-car business. Tho
car that runs from tho oastern limits of the
borough to tho foundry carries from 1,100 to
1,100 passengers dally.
E. W. Amour Is doing tho wiring of the
Mahanoy branch and tho work has been
completed as far 83 the Gilberton station.
Within a few days tho company will begin
running cars through Gilberton to Mahanoy
City. Transfers will be mado until tho
crossing can bo put in at the foundry. This
crossing was ordered somo tlmo ago and has
been on tho road for several days, but for
somo unexplained reason the company has
not received it.
Disturbances on tho company's cars aro
very raro now. igllanco auu speedy anu
determined prosecutions of ollenilcrs have
demonstrated that tho cars are not saloons or
play grounds on wheels and to uso them as
such is too expensive for tho average tough.
There am bo no doubt of tho Schuylkill
Traction Company's lines ultimately ranking
among tho most valuable and best paying in
the country when it is considered that in
this severe winter season, although the cars
nre not yet heated, the Shenandoah branch
is carrying an avcrsgo of 11,000 passengers
per week, which means, at fivo cents per
head, $550 per week, or $28,000 per year.
