HEWS OF THE THEATERS Vaudeville at the Phillips. When it was predicted that this week's, vaudeville bill at the New Phillips would be one of the best in manyweeks," no mistake was made as the audiences that saw the initial performances of Monday afternoon and night will testify. All were highly pleased pnd it is probable many will visit the house a second time before the week la over. Special "interest centers in Hie work of Miss Frances Swartz and company in their sensational playlet, "The End," and it can truthfully be said for them that they are entertainers of. the most clever nature and have an act that is 1 well adapted to their talents. It is much out of the ordinary - An enthusiastic reception was accorded these well known performers. Frank McNish has a talking and dancing specialty that is put Dn only as McNish can do it finished end artistic. He has had a long experience with the minstrel business, having formerly been interested in a company of this kind, and he knows what's what when it comes to, monologue and dancing. To these two headline acts must be added much more that rounds out the bill in a very satisfactory waj-. The Misses Chatham, singers and dancers; Goforth and Doyle, comedy sketch artists; Cal Lankert, in an illustrated song, and the cameragraph, showing the latest motion pictures, all do their full share toward the entertaining. This bill ought to get the New Phillips big business and no doubt will. The usual order of performances will be observed with a souvenir matinee on Wednesday.

BUTCHERS EXHIBIT MUCH OPPOSITION (Continued from Page One.) asked why the city passed an ordinance providing against the tanking of refuse, the butchers volunteered the statement that the city fathers had been forced to this action by the stench. Dr. Bond was told that the butchers would have no kick on a rigid inspection of meat and they all stated that they would be willing to fit up their respective establishments according to government regulation. Dr. Bond was not inclined to consider this proposition as he stated that such a plan would require too many government inspectors." Dr. Bond also assured the butchers no matter what kind of an ordinance was passed, the butchers would not be discriminated against, as the ordinance would provide that all farmers in the county and butchers operating in nearby towns, who sell their meat here, would be obliged to slaughter their stock in this city under government inspection. The meat question is as complicated now as it was before the meeting and it is probable that the committee will do some considerable thinking before it makes any recommendations to the council, as there is such a wide difference of opinion existing between the committee and the butchers that a compromise looks lHce a dim speck on the horizon at the present time. EX-SHERIFF SMITH WAS SERIOUSLY SICK Relatives of ex-Sheriff Richard Smith was greatly alarmed yesterday morning when he became unconscious and it was thought for a time that he was in immediate danger, as the result of taking medicine for a severe case of neuralgia with which he has been suffering for the past few days. Mr. Smith was very ill Sunday and when he attempted to arise this morning he fainted. A physician was immediately summoned and he soon partially recovered. He is still ill. The physician who attended Mr. Smith stated that it was nothing more than an ordinary fainting spell and was not superinduced by taking medicine. Excitement at Cambridge. Much excitement was occasioned at Cambridge City Monday by the arrest of James Phillips on a charge of drunkenness. Phillips , was arrested and placed in jail on the evidence furnishedby George Reicle, who said that Phillips had procured liquor for him. Phillips name was one on the list of seventeen, which was recently given- to the saloon keeiers in Cambridge sls habitual diunkards. Phillips is employed as bartender for Frank Langdon. Reigle has been released from custody- -

The trouble is over and the strikers gained practically nothing except the condemnation of the commercial interests of the city and the opposition of the newspapers. Fifty Were in Attendance. About fifty young people were in attendance at the meeting held for all young people of the city, Sunday even ing at South Eighth Street Friends' church. The meeting was a most enjoyable one and many spoke of a desire for more such meetings in the future. Plans were partially made pertaining to a permanent organization. Music was rendered and after devotional exercises, Rev. Clarence M. Case spoke on "Some Simple Laws of Spiritual Life." ADJOURNED.

Main St. VERY WISE "FLY MEN" DIDN'T LIKE CRITICISM Try to "Get Back" at Dr. Marvin by Framing Up a Story that He Kidnapped His Own Son No Ground - for the Statement.. Dover, Del., March 11. Following close on the statement of Dr. Horace N. Marvin, that he believed the state detectives searchiing for his kidnapped son, had done a bungling bit of work, came a retaliation from the officers today in the form of an insinuation that Dr. Marvin might know more of the whereabouts of his child today than any one else. Investigation, however, tends to show that there is not the slightest ground for suspicion against Dr. Marvin. An inquiry started by Daniel O. Hasting, deputy attorney-general, as to Marvin's record in Sioux City, brings only the warmest ! XL. J f t praise ior me uuciur lruni tus lormer home city. At no time since the Marvin lad disappeared a week ago today, has the mystery surrounding the case been deeper than now. The latest clue is in a letter received from an officer in Philadelphia. The letter encloses a demand that upon the payment of a certain sum by Dr. Marvin, his boy will be returned. There is a suspicion, however, that the communication is a fake. Was Awful Dirty. Victor Corwitchski, late of Poland, and ia subject of the Czar of Russia, was arrested Saturday for begging. He was released Monday morning aftre promising to shake the dust of Richmond from his feet in one minute's time. " He was told to hike eastward, as it is-the quickest way out of the state. Corwitchski. was without doubt the dirtiest man ever arrested in this city and the city jail was fumigated after his release. The man is a professional hobo. Cut Off Completed. Announcement was made Monday in the local Pennsylvania offices that the new $50,000 cut off, between Covington and Bradford, 4 O., had " been completed and trains were run over the new tracks for the first time todayThe tracks between the two cities were' formerly run in a roundabout way but now the "Pennsy" has a direct and straight route between the two.

, No. 11 LOOKS BAD FOR STATE JEROME HAS OFF DAY If District Attorney Does Not do Better Thaw is Liable to Walk out of Court Room a Free Man Delmas Meets Every Point. 4 New York, March 11. The first days sessions of the Thaw trial, during which District Attorney Jerome made an effort to introduce evidence id rebutal of th& story told by Evelyn Nesbit Thaw has ended with no great benefit to the state and it is admitted that unless the district attorney does better tomorrow that the case has been lost and that Thaw will walk out of the court room a free man in a few days. Almost every point of the states attorney was met by Delmas with an objection and few indeed were the instance when Justice Fitzgerald failed to sustain in the objections of the California attorney. It is expected that tomorrows sessions will be made more interesting by the calling of May McKenzie to the stand. Just what the district attorney hopes to develope from an examination of Evelyns companion is not definately known and it is barely possible that there will be a sudden change in plans again and that Jerome will go into argument. An endeavor was made to reopen the case of state and introduce new evidence i the defens fought off such an successfully. It is admitted by tate however that thought of new-iin-ations has not been abandol Y- nd should such be the case thei io be telling just when the trial brought to a close.
