"BY PROXY AT THE LYCEUM The Comedy Begins a Three Days' Engagement To-Night 'The Nabobs' at Cooks, "Devil's Mine" at the Academy, Variety at Musce. If the local theaters should receive during the remainder of the season patronage as liberal as that bestowed upon them last week their managers could afford to take a trip to Monte Carlo next summer.

Fanny Davenport, Theodore Thomas and James J. Corbett, truly a strangely assorted trio of stars, proved very strong attractions for the last week of 'S)2, and those plays In which there were no stars of distinguishing brightness were presented to large audiences. The prospects for another week of prosperity at the play houses are good, ropular attractions are coming to all of them. Beginning with afternoon and evening performances to-day, Iroxy" will be at4he Lyceum until Wednesday, and during the last half of the week, with a Saturday matinee, "A Texas Steer" will be the attraction at tho theater. "By Proxy" Is a comedy that has been received with much favor wherever it has been produced.

In writing it Charles Klein showed much skill in inventing dialogue and ingenuity in constructing a plot that naturally brings about amusing situations. The story concerns an offer on the part of one young man to relieve another, who is already married in secret, of the duty of courting a girl to whom he has been betrothed in childhood by his father. As the two young men exchange, name, the one who has gone to tho assistance of his married friend finds himself in an embarrassing position when he falls In love in earnest with the young woman in the case. The complications arising from this exchange of names create much amusement. Harry Brown is the leading man of the company presenting "By rroxy," but the comedy is not a "star play" and associated with him aro several clever actors and actresses.

J. L. Cath-cart and Edward Emery have characters of Importance to impersonate and the ladies of the cast are Miss Nita Sykes-, Miss May C. Standish, Miss Helen Jones and Miss Mario Stanley. "A Texas Steer" is one of Charles II.

Hoyt's most pretentions plays. It tells more of a story and calls for less horse play than any other comedy that he had written up to "A Temperance Town," and that It is not the least popular of the many works of the popular young playwright will be understood when it is said that this Is the third season of its lifo and that it) still is a good drawing card In cities In which it has been presented before: It has been seen in Bochester aud for that reason it is necessary to sny but little of It now. It is anuounced that there have been but few changes In the play since It was last presented here. Tho company is still headed by Tim Murphy and pretty Flora Walsh, who is Mrs. Hoyt in private life.

Tho Texas congressman as impersonated by Mr. Murphy is a character new to the stage. In fact, the whole play pt-snes in a marked degree he element of originality that Is of ail of the work of Mr. Ilenshaw and Ten Broeck In "The Nabobs" will tie at Cook's to-Uay, to-morrow ami Wednesday, and Uurlnc the hint half of tho week "Dartmoor," a play new to Kochester, will be tlio attraction nt tlUa theater. There will be afternoon and evening performances of "Tho Nabobs" to-daj A farce pure and siniplo is Ilenshaw and Ton Breock'a show and as such It gives opjiortunity ror graceful dances by pretty girln, groU'iue dances by clever men.

and comic songs and Jolly chorusws by a variety of versatile There are few dull momenta la it, and grauted that It Is rather noisy It Is none the lit on tnat account a disjxller of melancholy. la tho first act you have a female academy with pupils who do lota of things no amusing that you know tbvy never were learned from books. In the second net a lesson In mythology a nj mew? Kama pupus arrayeu us Venus, Diana aud other classical beauties. In the lat act there is a flow of fun that Is in terrupted at intervals only to allow the intro duction of some clever specialties. 1'orunoor Is a drama illustrating the un just operation of divorce laws.

It was written by Arthur Law and was produced for the first time at Mt. Vernon a fow days ago. It will be token to the Fifth avenue theatre in New york Inter this month. The plot hinges on a marriage of a woman to an honorable army officer after tho supposed death of her convict husband, who turns up alive and bothersome. "Devil's Mine" la the attraction secured for the Academy for tho week.

There will be two performances to-day, to-morrow, Thursday aud baturday. This play of the peculiar and suggestive name is quite picturesque, and Interesting and embraces many incidents of tho kind that excite audiences to hearty applause. It is a lusty aud cleverly constructed Western melodrama, with plenty of power and many highly dramatic situations, together with much other material that proves pleasing lnith to the eye and ear. The story is interesting and vigorously written; the characters thoroughly contrasted and well drawn the whole filled with the manly honesty and rugged heartiness of the Westerner, as seen on his native heath. Every scene of the play has something to cause hearty laughter or deafening applause.

Manager Koblnson resolved to begin the new year at the Musee theater with ilrst-elass attractions, and to carry out this resolution he has engaged these people to give the entertainment in the theater during the week beginning to-day: Laura Bennett, who Is modestly billed as the "queen of all serpentine dancers," the Balsleys, who slug, dance, play banjos and Juggle; Mike Tracy, who dances reels, hornpipes. Jigs, Jliles and Ireland, Hibernian characters; Wills and Barron iu a skit called The Matrimonial Agent;" and Will F. Denny, one of the most popular singers of the Musee. In the lecture hull Evaleen, who is known to the public as "The Water Queen," will eat and drink and do other unusual things In a tank of water in full view of the crowd; Gus and Josie Milton will do their musical A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU.

FAILURE ON STATE STREET. THE STAXDARO SHOE COMPAJTT THE HAJfOS OF A RECEIVER TIE BUSINESS TO BE WOUND CP AND THE STOCK TO BE SOLD.

Receiver J. Fox, representing the creditors of the Standard Shoe Company, doing business at No. 24 State street, closed their daws Saturday night, taking possession in the name of the creditors of the firm. This is Ae fourth failure that has occurred in Roeliester within the last ten days and is certainly indicative of hard times. The Standard Shoe Company began business in Rochester about three months ago and have done a rushing trade since they entered the shoe arena.

They have -been liberal advertisers and have offered unusual bargains, but the volume of their business was not sufficient to stem the tide of an off sison or dull trade. Mr. Fox, who has ohairge of the stock and th firm's business, said that rthe stock would be appraised at once and would placed on sale Thursday morning al 0 o'clock wihen rt would be sold at abont 25 cents on the dollar. The stock will probably Invoice in the neighborhood of $30,000 and consists of men's, women's, youths' and children's shoes and rubtters. The receiver considers the stock a good one, all of the purchases being of a recent date and bearing the brands In most instances of well-known and reputable manufacturers.

Many of Rochester's leading manufacturers are represented in the stock and when the sale begins the store will probably be well filled with customers who will be anxious to get a slice of these goods at even less than the cost of manufacturing. The public will do well to be on the lookout and watch the papers for further particulars concerning the Receiver's sale of the Standard Shoe Company, No. 24 Stvte street. On Saturdav next January 7th, Ey Specialist, A. Jay Cross of New York, will again visit Hamburch jewelers, to remain one day.

157 East Main Street. A Lady well-known in Rochester Suffers from Sick Headache and Dyspepsia for Thirty Years. Dr. Frank B. Smith Cures her in Six Weeks.

Of all human ills, headache in its many forma is the most prevalent. "When cue considers a woman suffering for thirty years from sick headache, it is but just to say that woman is a martyr, but when those years of sufferings are coupled with a very bad case of nervous dyspepsia, description of her Bufferings is out of the question. Mrs. t. Lcker, residing at 47 Campbell street, this city, was the above victim.

When she applied to Dr. Smith for treatment, her headaches had become so bad that they rarely lasted less than four days. Tne stomach was continually sour, with a bloated, heavy full feeling, palpitation, fluttering of the heart, extremely nervous and restless, constipation, weak, thin blood, cramping of the legs, and all the other symptoms attending this disease. During these many years of suffering Mrs. tcker bad tried many skilled pnysicians.

She had also used nearly everything advertised for such diseases, but slowly and surely grew worse. When she applied to Dr. Frank B. Smith, the magnetic physi cian, 19 rorth Washington street, she was utterly discouraged. As strange as it may seem, Mrs.

Ecker never hod a headache after her first treatment, slowly and surely the dyspepsia gave way until Mrs. Ecker, after thirty years of suffering, again found herself as well as ever before in her life. This good lady will gladly answer any letters written her regarding her wonderful cure, or talk with any one who may wish to call upon her. Dr. bmith is constantly making just such cures as the above.

He is permanently located at 19 North Washington street, and can be consulted free from 9 A. M. to 4 P. M. Sundays 10 to 1.

There are many sufferers that can be treated at their homes by sending two-cent stamp and uU history of their cases. ATTENTION Ladies! Emma" Bust Developer will enlarge your bust 5 incbes. Guaranteed. Sealed instructions ot 24 paife illustrated catalogue 6c. by mail.

Emma Tullet Iiazar, Boston, Mass. Sneak Thief Caught in the Powers Building. A CASE OF LONG LOST WIFE Mr. and Mrs. Simmons Have Lived Apart for a Good Many Years and Now She's Alter Him for on -Support Cases Before the Cadi, During the past two weeks the tenants of offices in the upper stories of the Powers building and the young ladies employed in the art gallery have missed articles of apparel which they had placed in tba toilet rooms.

A jacket, goesainer, an overcoat and several silk handkerchiefs were taken. Last Wednesday a diamond-tipped glass cutter was taken from the closet used by the resident artists. On Friday night Miss Alice Core(y, living at No. ill) Favor street, who is employed in the art gallery, could not find her mackintosh which she had left in the toilet room. She lodged a complaint with the police, and Detective Skusa was detailed on the case.

Saturday afternoon the detective arrested William Seofield and locked him up on the charge of larceny. The detective then went to Scofield's house on Bronson avenue and searched his rooms, finding a mackintosh which Miss Corey identified as the garment which belonged to her. Seofield was quite indignant over his arrest, but when, told that Miss Corey property had 'been found in his room he ad mitted that he bad taken the mackintosh, but stoutly denied that he had stolen any of the other things which the tenants in rowers block had recently lost. Seofield is a tinsmith by trade and has a wife and three children. He has been out of work for several weeks, and has been seen a number of times wandering about the corri dors of Towers block.

In the police court Saturday morning John Simmons was arraigned on the charge of non-support. It appears that Simmons was married in 1S7T to the seventeen-year- old daughter of a Chili farmer and that a few years after the marriage the couple had seme trouble which resulted In a sep aration. Mrs. Simmons claimed that her husband Rf-sauJted her and Simmons claimed that his wife deserted him. He had her arrested on the charge of attempting to poison him by placing arsenic in Ids coffee, but the charge was not sustained.

Then Simmons began a stiit for divorce alleging the usual statutory grounds. The divorce proceedings have been pending since 1SS1 and at one period Simmons was confined to jail for six months for con tempt of court in refusing to pay his wife alimony. Mrs. Simmons lives at No. HW East Main street with her fifteen-year old daughter, the fruit of the union with her long-estranged husband.

After the law yers for the plaintiff and the defendant had argued the case for some time Justice Kc-eler adjourned the case until Wednesday to allow the attorneys to submit further evidence. David Goldstein, alias David Davis, alias Davis Mendelssohn, when arraigned in the police court Saturday morning ad mitted that he had stolen a suit of clothes, two paurs of trousers and an overcoat valued at from 11. Libowitz. of Xo. 71 St.

Joseph street, with whom he boarded. A mouth ago Goldstein came to the city and boarded with Abraham Lipsky, at Xo. 01 Baden street and there stole an overcoat valued at $10. Goldstein is also charged with stealing a gold watch valued at $50 from Mrs. Moritz, No.

19 Vienna street, lie was sent to jail to await a hearing tomorrow morning. Goldstein is a Russian Jew and is believed ly the police to be a professional sneak-thief who confines his nefarious business to people of hi-s own race. Will mm Bright and illiam McFarlin, arrested a week ago on the charge of obtaining from the Laney Hag and Taper Company by means of a false order, were convicted in the police court yesterday morning and were sentenced to the penitentiary for three months each. Constable Field, of Charlotte, spent a good part of Saturday afternoon and evening in endeavoring to serve a warrant upon Owge Kpoeht, a 'butcher doing business at No. 37 Warren street Specht was charged with assaulting Charles Young, the brewery agent.

Specht brought 6uit before Justice Sprague, of Charlotte, against Cunstabfe Field for the value of a goose worth $2. The case was dismissed by the justice and Specht, it is alleged, struck Young over the head with a heavy wagon-epoke. It is said that Young gor out an execution against Spocht for a claim and that Constable Field levied on a lond of poultry which Specht was driving to Charlotte on the afternoon of De-cemlver 24th. The case was compromised by Young and Sperht allowed the con stable to take the goose, which gave rise subsequently to the law-suit. Mr.

Young took active part in the case and for this reason it is Alleged Specht assaulted Young. Young's wounds were dressed by Dr. Jones, of Charlotte. The constable, up to tins time, has not been ablo to find the tmtdher. Charles B.

Craig, a young -clerk employed to the gentlemen's furnishing department of Burke, FitzSimons, Hone was arrested Saturday evening by Officer Spahnon the charge of stealing $2 from his eanployers. Craig, when taken to the police station, admitted his guilt and Raid that tihe reason for his act was that he had been sick for three days during the week and iieeded the money to help pay Ms expenses. His folks live on Harrison street and he has Tiever before been detected in wrong-doing. Tolice Court Clerk B. Frank Enos opened a mew docket yesterday for the recording of the names of all culprits brought before Justice Keeler during the year.

In accord ance with his annual custom he placed the following inscription in the book: Happy New Year, 1SD3! A book of records, lowing the bad deeds of mankind. May many of its pages lie blank, aud iy it, like the previous volume, show a decrease of crime in the Flower city. The hrst case recorded on the new bW was of John Harmon, who was arrested Saturday for drunkenness and 'subsequently sent to jail to be treated for delirium- tremens. The first person arrested in Kochester in the new year was And-e-v Curtan, living at No. 321 South Clinton, street.

He vas charged with being drunk and disorderly and was arrested by Officer Sullivan. Clerk Enos says that there were fewer arrests last year than there were 1S9L nenry Smith was locked up last Saturday night on a charge of burglary and larceny, stealing a quantity of tools valued at $10 from Bernadine Smith on December N. Goldstein, of No. 102 St Joseph street, had a democrat wagon stolen from his yard last Saturday night. Albert Linberger had an overcoat stolen from Genua nia hall on Saturday Light He Aays he would rather find the tout than the thief.

MAIN STREET SEWER. Property Holders Getting Very Weary of Waiting For It. Property owners of Ea. Main street between Water and Kim street are getting anxious over the delay on the part of the common council in passing tho final ordinance for the sewer on the KLreet be tween tne points named, 'l'here are a numlior of extensive improvements contemplated on that thoroughfare, contingent upon the completion of tho sewer. The first ordinauce for the improvement was possod many months ago and then tlio ordinance came np for final adoption.

At first it was postponed from meeting to meeting and after the aldermen became tired of dealing with it in this manner. resolution was adopted laying it upon the table to be taken up at any time. lhe delay aliout tho sewer was the cause of the delay in getting the new pavement down on the street. After the pro perty holders saw that the aldermen wer bound to have the street newly paved, they came forward with a claim that the sewer ought to be put down before the permanent improvement was mado. Then the alder men came forward with the sewer ordi nance, but before the thing had been put through, the Clarissa, street bridge went into the river, and the scare in regard to the tafety of Court and Andrews street bridges ensued.

It was thought that the building of new bridges would begin at once, and as it would add considerable to tho burdens of East Main street bridge the idea of improving that street in anyway which would involve the tearing up of the thoroughfare was abandoned. This wag what caused the postponement of the sewer ordinance. Now the contracts for the Andrews anl Court etret bridges are about ready to be awarded, but it will be at least two months before any work will be begun on them and that will give plenty of time, the prop erty holders think, for the sewer to be con structed from Water street to St. Taul street at least, in case the council will uimpi. me nnai ordinance at the next mooting.

And when the sewer is built that far it can proceed, even With the bridges under way, sine the approaches to East Main street bridge would not be cut olt entirely. Edward Harris and James W. WTiitney il i uiv? id un, i-niTiy OWI1WS Who are exceedingly anxious that the sewer be built at once, lhe present sewer is but eleven feet deep and until it is deepened to the eighteen feet contemplated by the ordinance, no buildings with modern basements can be built. The gentlemen named have plans for a fire proof commercial building to be orected on the sitn. of the Formers hotel.

Mr. Harris called upon City Surveyor Mc-Umtock the latter part of last to urge the adoption of the sewer ordinance on tho ground that tho stores in the con-templaed building have already beeu leased, and that they nre unmble to go on with their plans ana comply with their portion of the eoDitmrts nteri into until the sewer has been built. There are other property holders who find themselves similarly situated in the matter of carrying out plan for rebuilding stores and blocks. An effort will lie made to get the council to adopt tho sewer ordinance at once. As the Aldermen them selves will have no choice in the matter furth'pir than to do us the majority of the property holders desire, it is very probable that the final ordinance will be adopted at the very next meeting of the council.
