The wind averaged from 24 to 30 miles per boar during the afternoon, with snow squalls in the mountains turning to rain in this city. Tha storm which was central off the coast of Maine has disappeared on its course aeross the ocean, following the Gnlf stream. The storm central over Lake Superior tias moved eastward and is central in Canada, and to day is in the St. Lawrence valley. An area of high barometric pressure, extending from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from the Gulf of Mexico to Oannda, with its center and greatest pressure at Denver, is moving this way, and is forcing the low barometer area and threatening weather off tha Atlantic coast.

It was generally fair yesterday throughout tha greater part cf the country, and there is every indi ration of having a good long spell or lair weather in this vicinity. UNDER THE WHEELS.

Amid the Scenes of War. Held by the Enemy will be produced at tha Opera House Monday, December 1st, and the great war play will receive the same thorough production that characterized its first presentation. Held by the Enemy is a Story the war that has never been equaled, and the essence of military life that is predominant thronghout, invariably commands he greatest attention. COUNCILS MEET. The Common Branch Agrees to Irnne War rants to Pay Salaries.

In Common Council last night the Select Council resolution approving the issuing of interest bearing warrants to pay city employes was taken np and passed with bnt one dissenting voice Mr. Stamm. Previous to its passage Messrs. Stamm and Royal had a lively word tilt and chopped language for half an hour, Mr. Stamm denouncing the proceedings under the resolution aa a species of slip shod legislation that had more than once gotten the city into trouble.

Mr. Royal said that when a man was in a hole he was justified in taking every means to get out "That's all light," said Mr. Stamm, "but he shouldn't try to get ont feet first and jam his head further into the mud." Mr. Royal didn't think anybody would get further into the mnd, and he explained that he and Mr. Schlayer, representing the Finance Committees of Conncils, in obedience to a resolution of Conncils, called on Mr.

Jennings to Bee whether they conld get money to pay np the deficiency. That gentleman said that the deficiency had been growing for ten years, and the bank he represented did not feel like bearing tha odium any longer. He suggested that a measure similar to the resolution be offered to Coan ils to bear a certain rate per cent interest. The sub committee then went to the City Controller, who said that he would sign the warrants. This resolution, while strictly not np to the letter of the law, is the best that can be offered under tha circumstances.

Tha members of the Finance Committee had considered everything they knew of, and this seemed to be the only possible way oat of the difficulty. Thia was an extraordinary occasion, and it required extraordinary measures. It might perhaps be not strictly in accordance with law, yet he knew it was contrary to the moral law to rob the city employes. The employes cannot get their money until next Jnly. If these warrants run until that time there are funds which the city can lay their hands on.

There is the reservoir fnnd, in which there ere six nn sold lots. With the sale of these lots, in conjunction with tha amount which the School Board owes, something like $20,000 can he realized. An ordinance will be presented to this Council authorizing the sale of these lots. The idea held by some of the citizens that the pnrchasers of these warrants conld hold them for an indefinite time and draw six per cent interest is wrong. They must be presented on the call of the City Treasurer, otherwise the interest win cease from that City Controller Yerbeke claims that there is $13,762 80 in tha city treasury.

It is said now that he will not countersign these warrants. Whether he will or not, there is nothing to prevent him from drawing on this amount, and when exhausted, the City Treasurer can inform council of that fact before the interest falls due on January 1st. Further Mr. Royal said this was a case ot necessity. Council appeared to think so, and passed the resolution.

The ordinance granting tha Postal tele graph and telephone company privilege to enter the city with certain limitations and restrictions, was referred to the Highway Committee. Messrs. Disbrow, Brown and Osier were appointed a committee to confer with a similar committee from Select Council on the ordinance granting tha use of electricity as a motive power to the Harrisburg City Passenger railway company. Select Council, A special meeting of Select Council was held last evening for general business. The Financa Committee reported as follows: An ordinence to ratify the contract ot C.

F. McCieaster for tha paving of Walnut street, affirmatively petition of V. II. Seibert and L. O.

Philips tor exoneration of sewer as sessment on Bar tine avenue, negatively an ordinance, providing for the issuing of 60. 000 of 4 per cent, bonds for building Mul berry stiett bridge and one allowing credit of assessment ot James McManm on sewer, passed first reading. CALLS IT A "BOYCOTT." A Few Telephone Subscribers Object to a manager's Removal. A dispatch to the Philadelphia Prest of te day from Carlisle, published nnder the head of "A Telephone Boycott," says: "A few days ago T. N.

Frank, manager ot the exchange of the Pennsylvania Tele phone company in this city, was deposed, and L. 11. Kmnard, of Harrisburg, was an pointed in his stead. When it was learned that Manaeer Frank was to retire. petition signed by many subscribers was sent to the general manager praying that as Frank bad proven a very faithful and accommodating officer, he should be retained.

It is stated that no answer to this petition was received, and, because the general manager refused to honor their petition, a second one was sent in Baying that if not honored, all the signers would refuse to answer call after the new management went in. Still no answer being received at noon to day, a large number of subscribers pulled their plags and are no longer patrons of the telephone company. A Telegraph reporter called at the general office of the telephone company this afternoon to get further information iu regard to the matter. He was told that it was true that Mr. Frank had been deposed and Mr.

Kinnard appointed in his place, but it was for tha purpose of increasing the efficiency of the service. It was untrue, however, that the communications sent from Carlisle were unanswered. An answer was sent to the gentleman whose name appeared first on the list of petitioners, ami there is reason to believe that this answer was suppressed. Mr. Frai has been with the company for over eight years, having charge of the Carlisle ami Mechanics burg offices, but the latter office was taken charge of recently by Harrisburg.

Mr. Kinnard is a courteous gentleman, who will endeavor to keep np the company's interests. But very few of the subscribers have quit in Carlisle, and these will come back in time. CHILDREN'S INDUSTRIAL IIO.Mg. The Executive Committee Solicit A In Tor the New Homo.

The executive committee of the Children's Industrial Home, Mrs. George Kinter, Mrs. Edward Boyer, Mrs. J. A.

Miller, Miss Rachel T. Briggs, Mrs. J. F. llohrer and Miss Agnes Felix, have issued a circular asking for aid to finish the work, which says: "We wish to call your attention to the present needs of the new building, and solicit your aid that the work may go on.

A UIfE t3F.STS. LIGHTS LOS DON. Of Miss Ziffle Tilbury, the charming and able artiste, and Mr. Arthur Lewis, a most capable actor, will appear in "The Lights O' London" at the Opera lie use tonight, the Newport (8. Observer says: "There was an overwhelming audience at the Opera House, attracted by the announcement that this popular drama would be performed by Miss tfeffie Tilbury and her excellent company.

A mora enthusiastic audience never was in the Opera House. When the curtain fell upon the third act, as Jar vis was led ont in convict's dress, and Harold Armytage came npon the stag's in proper attire, the andience broke out into rapturous applause, which culminated in tremendous cheating, so effective was the scene. One of the features of success with this company is the scenery, which is as fine and complete a lot as ever was brought into Newport. Miss Tilbury's part, Bessie Marks, the wife of Harold, just suited her, for she always appears at her best in a role whicU demands wifely and sympathetic devotion. All through the piece her acting was admirable, and especially during one or' two surprise bits, notably the reunion of her with Harold at the house of the Jarvis family.

In the closing act when, after long suffering, her trials came to an end and the dawn of happiness is at hand she really surpassed herself and that is Baying a great deal. Mr. Lewis, as Harold Armytagc, the outcast, convict and injured one, gave a manly presentation of the part and showed absolute appreciation of the many fine points with which tbe character is filled. He is, evidently, a great favorite with a Newport audience, and his faithful work merits such a distinction." HPSINESS LOCALS. 7 New Departments.

For six months I had an operation performed twice a week.but it did not help me.

At last I applied one of Hoke's Supporters, and the first night I slept an unbroken sleep till morning. 1 could do no housework of any kind now I do all tny work. I feel like a new person." Any one doubting tho genuineness of tho above can call or write to the above lady and mid out for himself. Any Xuniber of Such lleferenecs. About 8 months ago I was persuaded to wear one of c.

Since I began wearing your Supporter I call myself a well woman.

Any one desiring further information can obtain full particulars by calling at my residence. MRS. M. H. BERLIN.
