".A nACIIKLUK OIKL."
A new definition of "A lJachelor Girl,'
from "Tho Bachelor's Baby." A bachelor
girl is an understudy of to-day. An ludl-
vidual who does her own thinking. One
who nover throws up the sponge, on the
liberty of trottlnc in single harness. Is not
a clinging vlue, keeps up a power house of
reason, is healthy, sclt-supporting, and not
afraid of wearing her own last name. "The
Bachelor Girl" will face a man or a mouse,
believes in her virtue, her mother, tho Star
Spangelcd Banner, the constitution of the
United States, and the declaration of inde
pendence. The above company will upposr
at terguson's theatre this evening.
UNDER TUB DOME "
"Under the Dome," tho most pretentious
of the Carter plays, will appear atl-ergusou's
theatre on Friday evculng next. Asa play
it Is said to be far superior to any thins turned
out br this successful author heretofore. It
is a high class naval comedy drama, abso
lutely free from cheap sensationalism and
palpable appeals to thb gallery. Not a shot is
tired throughout tne play, with the excep
tion of tho admiral's salute fired by tho U. S,
man of war in honor of the flag ship Tren
ton. The scenery is both effectlvo and
abundant and the play is being interpreted
by a competent cast.

The Sleterolo Display.
The meterolo display did not put In an ap
pearance last night, and may not appear to
night. The astronomers say that all wo can
do is to watch aud wait. Meanwhile you can
Test easy and confident that you will not miss
the dazzling show. Chief of Police Murphy
has accepted the Herald's suggestion and
will seo that the people of Shenandoah are
wakened from their slumbers. When the
"shooting meteors" first put in their appear
anco tho police will sound the fire bell several
taps at long intervals, to distiuguish-it from
the regular fire alarai. Bear in mind, there
fore, that tho tapping of tho fire bell In this
manner one tap at long intervals docs not
necessarily mean fire, but Is only to notify
our poople of the arrival of the shower of
meteors.

"A Wise Woniau."
An ovent of exceptional interest is the
future engagement at Forgusou's theatro of
A Wise Woman," a musical comedy farce
in three acts. ' It is said that the instan
taneous hit the piece made has led to the
cancellation of many one-night stands in
which it was booked so as to enable tho man
ager to accept contracts offered in tho Urged
cities. The engagement in this town will be
kept, as Manager Dan. Ferguson has an iron
clad contract to that effect.

"A Battle-Scarred Hero" will appear this

City, with comedian Bert Coote in the lead
ing role. Manager Quirk Gives bis personal
assurance that the play aud the company ii
first-class. They played at Pottsville last
night, and the Journal says it was the
"cleverest farce comedy that has been staged
In VotUvillo for years, full of humor puro

Ed, Herald : I desire to say that the use

London, Nor. 1$. The Ilnralrarg-
Amsilcftii line steamer I'strU, Cap
tain Frohllch. which left Nwr York
Nor. 4 for Hamburg and naweil tb
Lizard on Tueaday. I on fire near
Dover. All the passenger wore rfta-
cued and have arrived at Dover.
The KuMian steamer Ceres sighted
the I'atria, showing signals of distress
nd demanding Immediate help, about
12 miles from North Hinder lightship.
The liner was enveloped In smoke.
uttlnc on full steam, the Ceres soon
reached the I'atrla, and sending; a boat
learned that Captain Frohllch was In
urgent need of assistance.
The boats were got out, and with
graat difficulty all the Patria's passen
gers, numbering ISO, were transferred
to the Ceres, which proceeded for
Dover, where she arrived Just before
midnight.
Francis W. Prescott. tho United
States consul at Dover, wm Immedi
ately notified, and he consulted with
the harbor authorities, who arranged
to send out the harbor tug Lady Vita,
men brought the rescued ashore.
Among the saved are many ladies and
children, as well as six babes In arms.
The hurry of the rescue waa Indicat
ed by the fact that most of them wero
enveloped In blankets only. They
were rapidly distributed among the
hotels or sent to the sailors' home, and
everything possible Is being done for
their comfort.
According to Interviews with some
of the passengers, which elicited the
fact that most of tbem are American
citizens who have come for a vacation
In Europe, all wen ordered on deck
nt 6 o'clock Wednesday morning, when
they were Informed that a disastrous
fire had broken out among the aeneral
cargo, and as the crew were unable to
master It the captain said he consid
ered It advisable for the passengers
to take to the boats.
At this time It was evident that the
fire had obtained a thorough hold upon
the cargo. Smoke and flames were
ascending with overpowering force and
causing the greatest alarm. The crew,
according to several passengers, work
ed I. .io heroes In their endeavors to
keep tho flames under, but the great
quantity of Unseed among the cargo
nnd the oil supplied by this made all
their efforts hopeless.
There was very Ereat excltemont
among tho women and children, but
tho oxample set by the coolness of
Captain Frohllch nnd the crow had a
calming effect on tho passengers gener
ally. The boats were promptly got over
the side, the crew working as If they
were at drill. The safety of the ladles
and the children were tho flrst consid
eration. As tho Are had by this time
consumed the greater part of the pas
sengers' belongings they had to get
Into the boats as they had come up
from their bunks, and some wero In
very Hcht raiment.
The scene was a striking one. with
some touching aspects, as husbands
and fathers parted from wives and
children. Although everything was
curried o"t -dr h" most rrvlne con
dltlons, thanks to the great coolnoea
of the captain and crew, there was no
panic, all of the passengers being got
ten Into the lioats and Into two fish
ing boats said to belong to Yarmouth,
which had come up m the meantime.
Just as this had been effected the
Ceres was sighted. She picked up all
tho Patrlas passengers The Ceres of
fered also to take off Captain Frohllch
and the crew, but the latter preferred
to remain by the vessel so long as
there was any chance of saving her,
although there was the greatest danger
In doing so, her hull being red hot at
the time, nnd there being every evi
dence that sho would burn for a con
sldernble period.
The passengers iny they learned
form the officers that Captain Frohllch
hopes to put his steamer ashore at
some point on the coast where there
will he a possibility of salving hf r. The
scheme Is a bold one, that does credit
to a gallant crew.

Itetltiee the Number ot Deputies.
It Is said that the Taxpayers' Association
will make an eltbrt to have reduced the
number of clerks in the court bouse offices,
olaimlng that the number now employed in
some ofllcee is entirely disproportionate to the
amount of work to be performed. The
salaries of deputies will also be reduced if
the Association can accomplish it; and that
the chiefs In tho otpi-en be compelled to at
tend personally to their duties instead of
assigning everything to subordinates. The
Association last year made an effort to re
duce the number of deputies in the District
Attorney's office, but failed. Mr. McLough-
lin, when he assume office, it is said, will
ouly appoint two deputies.
