The little boys that .-it up in the gallery began to whistle "The Tale of the Kangaroo" long before the curtain rose on the prologue of "The Rurgom aster" at English's Opera House last night. Their enthuslastie key was taken by the rest of the audience when the show began, and the nöisy applause all through tue three hour. was rich with music-hall fervor. This particular "Purgomaster" company began its season last night, but the entertainment did not falter; it ent with a rush. The unusually strong male chorus that marked the show last Reason being specially valuable in the Indian song in the prologue and the unaccompanied college song in the tirst act is retained. And the girls that crowd the stage are mar-vt-lously young and new. What they lack In .-kill they make up to ;t degree In freshness. Two or three of thorn seem almost too young for the whirl of skirts.

but is not un to the nar of tlie cakewalk that is tlie climax of th show. Baker Rock, who leads this feature, I an un-u.-u tlly agile person. The dance following the song "When Shakspeare Comes to Town" is elaborate! until the stage is iiibd with c.kewalkers. Last night's audience seemed hungry for music and dancing, and approved everything. There really is nothing of brilliancy in "The Rurgoma.-ter." but the muhio is tuneful, there is some bright comedy, and the company i.s capable. The performance to-night ends the engagement.
The mil nt the (irnnil. The vaudeville entertainment provided at the Grand Opera House this week If more extensive than the preceding show? there this reason. The bill Includes two French a,cts and both are interesting. Torcat is a buffoon. He make? his fim entrance in a basket that seeras borne on the bark of a nogre. His second appearance is as If he were walking on his hands. Again he comes on the stage In th arms of a Mongolian giant. His la5t trick is to ride a frisky horse. His cleverness lis in the kill with which he produces the illusions and the jollity with which he sings his French son as. The same rarity pervades the act of the four 'ollnis, dancers. They are two men and two women, alert and nimble and their work is a novelty here. W. H. Murphy and Planche Nichols again present the sketch railed "The Pirfurcated Jirl." It is a disjointed affair and its climax is in Miss Nichols severing her body at the waist, the low part walking off the stage. Mr. Murphy has some bright lines, without which the bit would be dry indeed. The other playlet on the bill Is acted by Charles Pradshaw "and company." On he programme it is lifted as "a roaring sketch" and this is appropriate. It Is anparent that Pradshaw and his helpers have worked carefully to produce what they think is the best result, for the sketch moves quickly. The poor mother-in-law is caricatured, and she returns to her son-in-law's home Just In time to catch a professional dancer tryinK to leave. The dancer, it turns out, is the wife of a friend of the son-in-law, and the friend is on hand to complicate matters. The youngr woman tells her husband that It was all a trick to reconcile them after a separation of months. The material is not original, but it is not so dull that it does not please the audiences even when it Is acted so poorly as it Is by Pradshaw and his assistants. The "star" and the other male member of his company waste enough energy In shooting and leaping about to give two mo performances a day than their contract c. ds for. J. Pernard Dyllyn Is using the costume in which he was seen in Johnny Ray's "A Hot Old Time." He comes on as a Westerner and sings a tlery song. Then, without changing his costume, he sings, or recites, two stories of a courtroom, where an old soldier ami a wrecked woman are before the Judge. The woman Is sentenced to two years Imprisonment for vagrancy, which In most countries is a ten-day offense. Dyllyn closes with a parody on "Dolly Gray." His act Is a valuable one, for It Is received with as much or more applause than the others in the show. The Pantzer trio, which made an especially favorable impression at this theater last season, is in the bill again this week. The youns women are fresh-looklns, wellformed and graceful and it Is the more painful, therefore, that thev twist their bodies so fearfully. It would be more pleasant If they were faithful to their posing am! added somersaults to the act. The grotesque man of the trio is an exceptionally pliable contortionist, but he has no good looks to sacrifice, as have the girls. W. T. Houston and Charles Leonard Fletcher are imitators along different lines. Houston mocks musical instruments and produces; a pleasing 'cello sound with his voice that gets applause because It Iß musical. There is no reason for his mandolin Imitation. He does an amusing trick with his voice and a piano that he calls an Imitation of a little German band. He also burlesques common place solo vocalists. He entertains his audience easily and his smoothness is a good feature of his work. Ease also contributes to the success of Fletcher's work, which consists of Imitations of well known men. This season he is taking off Chauncey Depew, Ezra Kendall and James A. Herne. He reproduces the scene between Martin and his brother Itl the lighthouse in "Shore Acres." Fletcher makes up his face at a table on the stage and this Insight into "behind the scenes" alone Interests an audience. The biograph closes the show. Poer-Ilriton IMny at the Park. "The Outpost," a melodrama, presented to the patrons of the Park Theater yesterday for the first time by J. K. Emmet and Lottie Gilson and their company, is surprisingly good. Mr. Emmet has improved in his acting greatly since his last appearance In this city. Miss Gilson Is still the same charming singer. In "The Outpost" Mr. Emmet has brought together a very capable company. Nearly every member goes through his part witn a precision seluom attained by actors of melourama. Tn story is taken rrom incidents ot the war in South Alrlca. It sparKles with love bits, which overshadow tne harsher scenes oi the battles. The opening act represents the home of Fritz von Ntidlandt (J. K. Emmet), near Kiniberiy, houth Atrica. Fritz has fallen m love witn an Irish girl, Nora Desmon; (Lottie Gilson), who has a brother in the English army. Fritz enlists in the Boer army as u captain. During the siege of Kimoerly Captain Falrian, a French soldier of fortune, who has cast his lot with the British troupe, also falls In luve with Nora and becomes not only an enemv of Fritz in war, but also a rival in love. Vrltz lives with his father, Oom Peter, and his sister Lena (Jennie ReifTarth). Tne place is below the hills, outside of Kimberly, and the sound of the tiring of the siege guns can be heard. The neighborhood is tilled with terror. Captain Fabian, on the pretense of being a friend of Fritz, places a. copy or the plans of fortifications of Kimberly in the latter's hands, telling him that they will help him and his friends at a later date. He then Quarrels with Fritz on a slight pretext. Fritz overcomes Fabian and horsewhips him. Tlie Utter then withdraws und returns with a detachment of British troops and orders the arrest of Fritz as a spy. At this juncture Lieutenant Desmond, Nora's brother, who is In command of the detachment, refuses to arrest Fritz as a spy and turns over his sword. The second act is full of thrilling scenes. Fabian is again wcouting the neighborhood for the purpose of finding Fritz. He suspects that he Is at home, and when Oom Peter refuses to allow him entrance he brings forth a crowd of soldiers with a Catling gun and prepares to riddle the house. Nora and Fritz appear, and. with the assistance of I'lgo. a Kattr slave, thwartz Fabian. The third act finds Fabian near the completion of h?s plans for the 'final disposition of Fritz. The latter is arrested while returning home and Is locked in his own house, from whence he will be taken to be court-martialed. Sergeant Casey proves lax in his watching ami Fritz is allowed to escape. The final scene sbows the reconciliation of Fritz and his sweetheart, and Lieutenant Desmond leaves the English army and throws his future with the Roers. No ranting accompanies the reading of the line of the play. During the action Miss Gilson sings several new songs. The engagement Is for two performances a day until Thursday, when. "In a Woman's Power" will take the stage. Itower) Ilurleiiirr nt the Pm pi re. With each annual visit of the Powery Purlesquers new features are to be seen in the show. Sometimes these features are not successful, while at other times the rest of the show I obscured by their light. This year the addition of "Chick" Connors, tho noted "Mayor of Chinatown." is In the way of excess baggage. Yutakmee. an Indian woman who has a rich voice, is one of the hits of the show. The performance begins with the olio, the Naclrema twin midgets opening the bill. These voung women perform some dlfilcult acrobatic feats. Neva Aymar. a dashing young woman clad In raiment of gorgeous colors, follows with several ragtime songs. She Is assisted by Pen Janson. who accompanies her on the piano. Her imitations of the Southern darky are well don. Gilbert and Goldie retain many of their old jokes. The Taylor trio, composed of one white woman, a white man and colored man. have not changed their musical act since their last appearance In this city. Henshaw, Franclola fc Co. have little excuse for taking up the time they do in the olio. Hays and Suits complete the olio with a unique singing and danclns: sketch. "Slumming' is the title of the afterpiece. It ues the whole company. Vlnnle Henshaw takes the principal role of the typical East Side tough girl. The scene of the play Is laid In the locality of the Powery and Mott street, where Chinese and Hebrews abound. The music of the large chorus Is good. The show will remain for the r st of the week, with daily matinees. Stnart Ituhsnu u Pertie A mi in. ST. I'AI'h, Sept. 2.1. Stuart Uobson. with a company, including Macklyn Arbuckle. Ruis Whytall.

Fire Chief Pnrrett Com pi a Ihm of the llniiKer. Fire Chief Barrett is complaining of the feed wires of the street-ear company being strung along the south side of Washington street, from Pennsylvania street to Illinois street. He says the cable would greatly hamper the fire department in case of a fire, and If the insulation should break the lives of firemen would be in great danger. When the poles were removed from the center of the street it was the understanding that there should be no wires left on Washington street. City Engineer Jeup says that the street-car company promised to remove the wires when the poles were taken out as far as Noble street. The poles have not been taken out east of Pennsylvania street, and the city engineer says he does not know when they will be removed. Desire Street-Car E&teiiMion. The citizens of Haughvllle and Emetichsville held a meeting in the oilice of Justice Ennerichs, ia Emerichsville last night to take further steps toward securing an extension of the street car line through north Haughville. The proposed extension is north from the West Michigan street car line on Holmes avenue to Tenth street, west on Norman avenue, north to the Craw -fordsville road, thence to Bit-mark avenue and south to Michigan street, connecting with the old line. More than twothirds of the population of Haughville live north of Michigan street, and the change would be of much convenience to thciih and would also reach those who live in Emerichsville. A part of the proposed route is out of the city limits and the city cannot compel the street car company to make the extension over the route named. The meeting was held to secure an expression (tf the citizens concerning the extension and it was decided to keep up the agitation until the request is granted. iioAim or works hoitim:.

ministers on "What 1 Saw in Mars." The title gave no Indication of the character of the paper.

Dr. Anderson explained that the paper was written before the beginning of the campaign and had no direct reference to Mr. Pookwalter. who he said had taken offense at a previous paper. WANTS A NEW FRANCHISE.
The Shelhyville Electric Line Clnini to Have Xeiv Life. The Shelbyville Street-railroad, Heat. Light and Power Company yesterday filed a petition with the County Commissioners for a new franchise for its road over the Michigan road, in Marion county. The company was granted a franchise on June 11, l'.1"0, which provided that construction was to begin not later than April 1. l'.01. and that the work should be completed by Jan. 1, K2. The company, in its petition, says that it was not able to begin work on April . but that it now has arrangements completed and contracts signed for the immediate construction of the road, and that work will begin in thirty days. The company gave as a reason tor not meeting the requirements of the former franchise that it was unable to finance the road. The financial question has nowbeen settled. It is said, and work will begin next Monday if the new franchise is granted. The hearing will be concluded to-day. LABOR UNION TROUBLES CO.SII)EnEI) AT A MEETING OF THE CEXTHAL BODY. The Police Dispatch Company Matter Still AKltatliiB the Workers' Organization. Central Labor Union last night spent much time in discussing the reports of the grievance committee. The settlement of the differences between the Structural Iron Workers' Union and the Brown-Ketcham iron works was referred to the executive board of the central body, which will meet the iron workers to-nigh.t. The wage question is not figuring in the contest, the company being willing to pay the scale. The contention is over defining what a structural iron worker i?. The men are at work pending a settlement. The grievance of the Marble Cutters' and Setters' Union against the Tile Setters Union is yet to be settled. The men employed on the Claypool building struck because a tile setter had been employed to do their work. The Indianapolis Police Dispatch Company matter was again before the meeting and President Feltman and Secretary Slough were instructed to call upon the board and get a elefinite answer as to whether or not it will grant police powers to the new company. A communication was received from Deputy City Attorney Pell stating that the board had referred the matter to the legal department of the city and that the department is making a thorough investigation of the company and Its incorporation. The laws of the State prohibit the granting of police powers to Pinkerton agencies or police service of that character. Central Labor Union charges that the new company purposes to establish such a system. President Feltman and Secretarv Slough will demand that the Poard of Safety give its answer, and then it will be referred to the executive board. While it was not in order, President Feltman allowed considerable discussion over the Poard of Safety granting police powers to such organizations. Some of the delegates wanted the central body to ask the two candidates for mayor to express themselves on this ejuestlon and secure pledges that they will put a limitation upon such grants. Some said that organized labor should be represented on the Board of Safety. Tlie central body gave authority for the asking of a charter from the American Federation of Labor for the Foundry Helpers' Union, a new organization that has been formed by President Feltman. A new law of the Iron Molders' Union allows machine molders to become members of that organization. This does away with their former union and leaves the helpers without an organization. There were many delegates present from cities in the gas belt, who were on Their way to Brazil to attend the convention of the State Federation of Labor, which convenes to-day. Nearly all of the local unions and Central Labor Union will send delegates to the convention. CASE OF JOHN D. SHEA. Dlftcrliiiiiiatiou off Pollee Attnlont Saloon Keepers Alleged. Friends of John D. Shea, 25 West Pearl street, who was arrested late Saturday night and charged with keeping his place open at illegal hours, claim his arrest was due to his antagonism to the Taggart administration. He was a stanch supporter of William L. Moore, and is now for Bookwaiter. At the time of his arrest he inquired of Patrolmen Jordan and Cronln why he was arrested and John Kiley's place epposite was allowed to remain open. The officers told him they were acting under Instructions, and Shea was taken to heaquarters. while KIley kept on doing business after 11 o'clock, at which time the law, which the police ate supposed to enforce, says they should close. When the case was called for trial yesterday Shea asked for a jury trial, and Judge Daly continued the case, with the announcement tha;t trial must be had at the convenience of the court. The Jury trial is said to be only for the purpose of bringing out facts relative, to the liberties ullowed some saloon keepers and discrimination practiced by the police against others. TOO MANY ANARCHISTS. Mine Worker Secretary Say si Spring Valley Story Im Absurd. Secretary Wilson, of the United Mine Workers, said yesterday that in his opinion the dispatch from Spring Valley, III., stating that there were five hundred Anarchists there. Is false. Spring Valley is a mining town and Mr. Wilson is well acquainted with that vicinity. He said: "The entire population of Spring Valley is but about tJ.t.KJil. and according to this dispatch, and considering the recognized ratio of adult male population. It would mean that nearlv half of the men there are Anarchists. 1 know better than that. Then If it were true, do you think that a committee would be appointed In a place where half of the male population are Anarchists, to make certain demands and request that all of them be discharged by a company?" CITY NEWS ITEMS. Dr. F. M. Wiles has gone to New York to spend several weeks at the surgical clinics. Mrs. R. R. Shiel. who was burned on the face in an explosion at her home, has almost recovered.

HEIRS SUE FOR RENTALS
AIlMIMSTHA TIO OF CHRISTIE ESTATE I1Y PETEH F. 1IUVCE. The Will of Charlotte McFarland Prohated other Cnacsi In the Local Courts. The case of the heirs of Albert' Christie against Peter F. Prycc. to recover $11.) on a bond Pryce gave in his administration of the Christie estate, began yesterday in the Circuit Court. The case will likely last several days. Christie was a saloon keeper, and was killed by another saloon keeper In 1ST1. Pryce was appointed guardian of the children in 1ST! and served until IM'., when Mrs. Christie was appointed guardian with Pryce as bondsman. Mrs. Christie removed with her family tu Montreal, Canada, and later to Detroit. . Prycc acted as her agent here and assumed control of the property. He lived in one of the properties and the others were sold. When the guardianship was finally closed a report by Pryce' showed that there had been a deficit in the rents over the expenses of keeping up the property amounting to ?G and the sale money went to make up this deficit. The final settlement was made about one year ago, and it was then that the heirs charged they had never received any of the money from the rentals or sales of the property. The suit followed, in which their mother was made defendant with Pryce, but the mother also denies that she received money from Pryce. Pryce says that he sent her all of the money collected, and that she acknowledged all of the payments. Will of Charlotte McFarland. Charlotte McFarland's will was probated in open court yesterday. She bequeathed a one-sixth Interest in the old McFarland farm to each of these nephews and nieces: Robert McFarland, Laura Duzan Tarkington, Elbert, Florence May and Rertha Georgia Duzan. and one to George and Edith Harding jointly. To her niece, Laura Duzan Tarkington, wife of Jesse Tarklngton, she gives all her Interest in the household goods in the home at No. 26 East St. Clair street, the property where she and her sister lived for years; also the Martindale avenue, Lincoln avenue and North Indianapolis properties owned by her and her sister jointl. 31nry 1".

A tour through the shops discloses many new and beautiful things to drive dull care away from the hearts of womankind. The New York store's opening last week was accompanied by the usual decorations and music. The millinery department revealed many picture hats of marvelous beauty, the prevailing styles being Rembrandt, the various trimmings being ferrets, cabochons, aigrettes and ponpons. One huge pink one was made of taffeta with chenille edges, the brim being faced with escurial lace and appliqued and draped with soft drapery and ottoman silk. The left under brim held two pink birds and a large black velvet bow rested on the crown. A large blue Gainesborough held on the left side two large shoes of satin ribbon and a white aigrette. From the center of the crown was carried long knotted ropes which fell in streamers, also knotted down the back. Many robes and suits for any and all occasions are there. Silk and velvet skirts, much the same cut as last year, except that they lit closer around the figure and tiare more at the bottom. Applirjue is in as high favor as ever and black and black and white prevail. Elegant carriage robes of tan cloth with stitched strappings, lined throughout with silk; Kimonas and capes. H. P. Wasson's store was In gala attire yesterday. Each hat seemed more beautiful than the last. A black picture hat. Gainesborough style, caught the eye of the lover of black. This was made of panne velvet for the body of the hat, with silk appliqued in lace, with three large ostrich feather plumes, and graceful folds of satin taffeta ribon which fell in broad sashes flowing behind. One handsome set, composed of a muff, hat and boa, was made of plaited taffeta ribbon. the boa tails reaching below the knees. The muff wayart immense affair and the whole set was elegant in the extreme. An elegant Child s hat was made with tan crown, having a double plaited brim of white taffeta. At the left side was a large choux of loulsine silk. The marquis are very popular shapes, mink, felt and beavers being the most used. One continental hat had a mink crown with white lace brim, ami white plumes on the side, held in plate by a mink head. The children's department displayed many ready-to-wear garments, the most correct styles for gowns being the sailor. One coat, Newmarket, must be mentioned. This was made of castor cloth lined throughout with robin's egg blue silk and faced with broadcloth the same shade as the lining, with strappings of and gold braid. Going Into the cloak and dress department one found gowns to suit all tastes. Black velvet Prince Alberts, long kimona raglan carriage wraps and light opera wraps to tempt a queen. A new wrinkle In evening gowns is to have a tiny silk puffed pocket on the outside of the drop skirt near the bottom, one in front and one in the bat k. This will be hailed with delight by all femininity who have long languished for some place to conceal a few of the necessary evils which go to make up a well-kept woman. From the muslin underwear department to silk petticoats was but a step. Ami one Iiscovers.. In spite of 1 all the hue and cry about the passing of the silk petticoat, that they are as popular and beautiful as ever. The little French models which have just been brought over are things of beauty, to say the least. One bodice is made of lace and fine mohair, trimmed with Persian applique. A piece of tucked gloss silk was used for the yoke effect and fur straps on the collar. The felt was of Persian satin, the opening in front having a fill of chiffon. Another in a flowered mousseline de soie, so popular this year, was made over beurre-colored satin, the shirred parts and puffs and plaited pieces on the front being of plain beurre chiffon. At the plaited parts in front very often a Mower of very handsome thin embroidery is used. Around plaiting and collar an applique matching the flower Is used. The Van Dyke point is the newest feature of the skirts, this being very pojiular, too. GOES TO TERItE HAUTE. Rev. Charte W. Tlimlry Promoted y the lied ford Conference. The assignment of Rev. Charles W. Tinsley, pastor of Broadway M. E. Church, this city, to the pastorate of the First Methodist Church of Torre Haute, by the conference In session at pedford, Ind., has been learned by Mr. Tinsley's parishioners with feelings of mingled regret and pleasure. They are sorry to lose a minister who has proven in every way aeceptable to them, but at th' same time they are pleased that his new position pays a salary that is a year more than he now re ceives. Mr. Tinsley's promotion, it was learned vesterday. came about through the !:lendlv t .'t'oris of W. C. Van Arsdel. of this city. Several weeks ago Mr. Van Arsdel. in conversation with I. H. C. Royse. of Tcrre Haute, learned that the latiers church .the First Methodist) was lacking a pastor, and suggested that Mr. Tinsley would be Just the man for the place. 'Tinsloy Is young, a splendid preacher and a man of great executive ability,-' s.iid Mr. Van Arsdel. Later Mr.
so many varied uses ; of a half dozen kinds for a special purpose. PER CENT. PURR
Van Arsdel met J. Smith Talley, a prominent mine operator and member of the First Church at Tcrre Haute, In the Denison Hotel in this city and asked him if his pecple had secured a minister yet. "No. we haven't.' said Mr. Talley, "but we are negotiating with a Massachusetts preacher." "Better take Tinsley, of this city." said Mr. iri Ars. hi. -as I told Mr. Royte the. other day. Wouldn't it be a good idea for several of your members to come over to Indianapolis and hear Mr. Tinsley preach?" The suggestion was adopted, and, as a result, when on the ilay preceding the opening of the conference at Bedford iast week, tlie people received notice that the Massachusetts minister could not accept their offer, they at once extended a call to Mr. Tinsley. which has been accepted. PACIFIC CABLE COMPANY INCORPORATED AT ALII AM V, WITH A .NOMIN VI, CAPITAL. The Miu'kujK Are Heavily Interested All the .New Pacific Potiemilon to lie on the Line. ALBANY. X. Y.. Sept. 2C.-The Commercial Pacific Cable Company, with a capital stock of noa,ioi, was incorporated here today by John W. Mackay. Clarence II. Mackay. Edward C. Piatt, Albert Beck, George C. Ward, Albert P. Chandler and William V. Cook. Respecting the purposes and prospects of the new company. Mr. Mackay said to-day that the Commercial Pacific Cable Company had been organized for the purport of laying a submarine cable from California to the Philippine islands by way of Honolulu, in the Hawaiian islands. Th length of the cable will be about 8."x) miles, the part to be first laid between California to the Hawaiian islands. This portion. .Mr. Mackay expects, will be in operation within nine months. The time required lor the laying of the rest of the cable, from the Hawaiian islands to the Philippine islands, will depend upon how quickly the eable eah be manufactured, but Mr. Mackay believes , the whole e able will b completed within two years from this date. On Aug. Mr. Mackay made application to the United States government for landing rights In California and the Hawaiian islands and the Philippine islands. The new company, Mr.. Mackay announces, is willing to lay the cable 011 the sam terms and conditions at San Francisco. Honolulu and Manila, so far as landing rights are concerned, as were Imposed by the United States government em the cable lines which have U-eii landed on the Atlantic coast of the United States. The new c ompany does not ask any subsidy or any guaranty, which is Mr. Mackay' reason for believing there will be no trouble in agreeing with the government on the terms and conditions upon which the cable will be landed. The new able. when It reaches the Philippines, will connect at that point with the present submarine cable running from the Philippines to China. A direc t cable route from China and Japan to the United State will thereby be established. At present eablegrams from China to the United States have to be sent by way f Europe. Mr. Mackay said that the present cable rates from the United States to the Philippines and to China and Japan would be reduced, when tht:r.ew cable is laid, from :; to i per cent. SAMPSON RELIEVED.
