New Superintendent.
Last week the Pennsylvania Hall road
Company made a change on some of its
divisions, lnoludlng the Allegheny
division, of which the Low Grade la
part. Heretofore this division extend
ed from Pittsburg to Oil City and from
Red Bank to Driftwood, with T. B. Dab
ny as superintendent. Under tbe new
arrangements 28 mile of the Allegheny
division is cut off, from Klsklminata
Junction to Pittsburg, and that section
of railroad has been added to the Con-
emaugh division. James Buckelew Is
the new superintendent of 'his di
vision. This change makes it necessary
for the superintendent's office to be
moved away from Pittsburg, but just
where the new headquarter will be
located is not definitely known yet.
Most likely Franklin will be selected
for superintendent's office. We are in
hopes that the new superintendent will
not think It uecessary to move' tbe Low
Grade dispatcher's office away from
Reynoldsvllle. This Is the middle of
the Low Grade and' we sannot see what
better location Mr. Buckelew can find
for this office.
Qillllan Missed Connections.
It is a great disappointment to all
concerned, 'especially to the manage
ment of the lecture course, that Mr.
Gillllan was unable to fulfill his engage
ment at Assembly hall Monday even
ing. Mr. Gillllan was on his way from
South Dakota with barely time for hi
trip. He made schedule time until
reaching Cleveland, where his train
failed to make connections. This num
ber promised to be tbe most pleasing of
this season's attractions and his failure
to appear is keenly regretted by all.
However, the management Is very for
tunate In having an attraction soon to
be presented tbat even eclipses the ex
cellence of Mr. Gillllan' lecture, that
can be given a the fifth number of the
oourse. The entertainment referred to
l "The Lion and the Mouse" given by
Mr. Edward P. Elliot. The date set
for this number Is April 11th. AH
ticket sold and neat reserved for the
Gillllan lecture will be accepted tor Mr.
Elliot's recital. J
Note In other column of this paper
comment upon this presentation of
"Tbe Lion and the Mouse."
"King Richard III" and Mantell.
"King Richard III," In whloh Mr.
Mantell will act in the Jefferson
Theatre Punxsutawney Pa , Monday,
April 8, is proving tbe most expensive
piece of theatrical property with which
be has ever been associated. He
originally produced tbe tragedy In
1902, at outlay of 112,000 for scenery
and costumes; but It had two seasons
of bard travel by the time he was
ready to go Into New York City In
December of 1904, to that It wan then
in tattera, while there was no time to
get up fresh scenery. A month or so
later, In Pittsburg, he and Mr. William
A. Brady, bis manager, designed a
fresh production of uncommon beauty.
ItsoBtunly $9,000; but that was owing
to the fact that It was gotten up from
Mr. Brady's own Btock and by bis own
salaried employes, being a duplicate of
tbe production of the tragedy made by
Sir Henry Irving In London in 181)0.
The theatre In which the production
was painted burned before the paint
was dry, and the production was
destroyed. Then, following Sir
Henry's death, Mr. Brady purchased
the great Lyceum production; and it
was destroyed in a railway wreck on
the way from London to the boat at
Southampton.
MessrB. Brady and Mantell were
able to recover only what they
had paid the Irving estate $0,000
and not what tbe production was
worth, $15,000. They next got up a
special production for tbe Garden
Theatre, New York City; but this was
found to be too big for many of the
playhouses in Other cities, so that a
second .and smaller production was
prepared. As It bad been in constant
use, this bad to be replaced last
January. Total to date for Mantell'
"Richard III" scenery, $44,000.
Fascinating Story.
On Thursday night of next week,
April 11th, Prof. Edward Elliott will
present "Tbe Lion and tbe Mouse" In
Assembly ball. It tells tbe story of a
girl's fight against a thousand million
dollar to save her father from the un
clean clutches of the giant trust. It
gives you an Insight into the home life
of the world's richest citizens. It tells
of the menace of the money peril tbe
barter of the U. S. Senate the money
value of a human heart. All this is
woven Into a fascinating story that
holds you like a vice, makes you laugh
without any effort to be funny. A story
with a message tbat makes men and
women think. As powerful as a ser
men. ,
