Weeks, General Passenger Agent, Philadelphia. The Paxtnns Stock Co. New interest seems to be manifested over the engagement of the Pax tang Stock Company from the fact that the organization Is now about to present a series of strong melodramas which are more suited for open, air performances. "Michael Strogoff" inaugurated the first of these revivals and the presentation last night whs creditable to a degree. The play proved an excellent dramatization of Jules Verne's famous novel as it is filled with all the life incidents and comedy which made the novel so popular.

The lavish manner in which the presentations of the Paxtang Stock Company have been given, has aroused special comment and served to demonstrate that Paxtang Park is able to offer the very best in the drama. The indications are that many have solved the question of where they will spend the 4th of July, by taking advantage of the excursion rates for that day via the Cumberland Valley Kailroad, to the various resorts end Parks on their line. Some will go to Mont Alto Park, where Prof. Shaw's Concert Band and Orcmestra will fur nish music, some to that attractive spot known as Mount Holly Park and some will go to the well known pic nic grounds at 'Y imams' wove.
