WEDNESDAY EVEXIXGr STATE POLITICS. Philadelphia, Nov. 30. After repeated conferences with. Senator Quay; State Chairman Elkin and other political friends, in which the subject of Cabinet and State appointments was thoroughly discussed, Governor elect W.

A. Stone left this city yesterday afternoon for Washington, to join his family. No intimation was given by the Colonel before his departure as to any decision he have arrived at in reference to the appointment of members of his Cabinet, and all slate making indulged in by the" political guessers remain purely speculative. Intimate friends of Colonel Stone state that while he has in mind the men who will probably receive the principal portfolios in his official family, he has not definitely decided or pledged any particular appointment. It is recognized that the pressure brought to bear on behalf of a number applicants for the several plums has been very great, and the Colonel's plan of keeping silence on the matter is the only policy he can pursue.

Just before his departure, the Governor elect stated to a questioner: "I do not intend to make any announcement or have anything to say in reference to appointments until my inauguration." Friends of Lieutenant Governor Walter Lyon deny that he aspires to the Attorney Generalship, and says that his mission in this city to see Senator Quay and Colonel Stone has been in the interest of another applicant for a Cabinet position. Although Chairman Elkin declines to admit that his name is being considered for any office, it is believed that he will be recognized among the Governor's appointments, either as Insurance Commissioner or At tbrnev General. Pittsburg, Nov. 30. Lieutenant Governor Walter Lyon has returned from Philadelphia, where he helped to make up the coterie of Republican leaders which assembled at the Hotel Walton to meet Governor elect William A.

Stone and Senator M. S. Quay. Apropos of the rumor that Colonel Stone had extended to him the portfolio of Attorney General, Mr. Lyon said: "I have had no intimation that Colonel Stone intends to confer that honor upon me." "A re.

toii in a. reeeTitive. mood as re gards that appointment?" "If the place were offered to me I think I would accept. It's an honor that any man should be proud of to be Attorney vania. Besides, the duties of that office are right in line with my profession." Mr.

Lyon added that Governor elect Stone was not likely to announce his Cabi net until after the Legislature met. Pittsburg, Xov. 30. Assemblyman Frank B. McClain, of Lancaster county, is in town.

When asked if he was a candidate for Speaker of the House, he said: "I certainly should like to be Speaker of the House of Representatives of a 'great State like Pennsylvania. Lancaster expects to be recognized in a manner satisfactory to the Republican party of that county, eitner oy tne new aanunistration or the incoming Legislature," preferably by the new administration. I am first of all for Lancaster county able young Republican leader, W. W. Griest, for Secretary of the Commonwealth.

All the companies had extra bills of fare, including turkey, plum pudding, sweet potatoes, pie, etc. Turkeys sold. here for ten cents per pound, live weight.

Drills Avere suspended for the day, and many of the boys strolled over to the Cavalry and watched the field day sports arranged by the troops of that command. The different events were exciting and interesting. Friday the hospital of the Eighth was empty, which will be comforting news to the folks at home. During the seven months that the Eighth has been in camp only nine men have been summoned to the better land. To Col.

Hoffman and the officers under him due credit should be given also for the splendid record of the regiment, which is among the best in the service. The new tents that were promised have not made an appearance, and the boys would gladly welcome them. If the weather continues to be as tool here at nights as it has the past several nights Uncle Sam had better move us further South; the days, however, are pleasant. It is nearly as cold as at Camp Meade, and this is what they call the Sunny South. Col.

Hoffman is acting brigadier general in the absence of Gen. Gobin. Lieutenant Colonel Watts is in command of the regiment. The following promotions have been made in company First Lieutenant Kline to captain, to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Capt. W.

H. Conrad; Second Lieutenant Bischof to first lieutenant, and Orderly Sergeant Russell to second lieutenant. And still the heavy guard is being mair tained around the regiment. The boys don't like this, as guard duty comes too often, which is not a pleasant duty, especially during the nights, as they are very cold. The boys of the regiment are looking forward with much interest for the game of foot ball between our'' team and the First Maryland boys.

This team recently defeated our boys to the score of 5 to 0. AMUSEMENTS. Next Door Nov. 30 (Matinee Wednesday). Modjeska Dee.

3 James K. Hackett. Dec. Cuba's Vow 6 Denman Thompson 7 Modjenka. The return of Modjeska on Saturday evening, who is really the greatest artist of the English speaking stage, is a matter on which we should congratulate ourselves.

Modjeska is always superb and grand, it matters not what character she portrays. Her sweet and charming manner, her personal magnetism, wonderful voice, expressive face, magnificent bearing and unequaled technique arc impressed upon one and never forgotten. The many and varied roles which Modjeska has illumined and made her own cannot bo too warmly commended to public notice, not only for what she has been, but for what she is, a woman and an artiste, possessed of the finest sensibilities, the highest intelligence and the sweetest sympathy, with the best and noblest in the drama. She has never been prudish or narrow minded in the selection of her plays and has held, wisely, that art should not be hampered by ignorance and prejudice. She has played "Carnille," "Othello," "Magda" and "Cleopatra," but she has also played "Isabella," "Ophelia," "Rosalind" and "Mary Stuart," which is sufficient evidence of her disregard of prudish conventionality.

Modjeska will appear in an elaborate production of "Macbeth," a Shakespearean drama which has rarely bcen given in Central Pennsylvania. James li. Hackett. Some of the members of Janies K. Haek ett's company who will appear with that star in the production of "Rupert of Hent zau," in this city, are Mabel Amber, Mr.

Hackett's leading lady; George Alison, Mrs. Owen Marlowe, Miriam Nesbit, U. W. Thomas, Gertrude Rivers, Eongley Taj'lor, William Eville, Arthur Hoops and Henry Motto. Daniel Frohman, who is directing Mr.

Hackett's tour, personally selected the company, several of its members being culled from the famous Lyceum Stock Company, of New York. "Rupert of Hentzau" will be. presented next Monday evening and will be equally as delightful as the "Prisoner of Zcnda," which will never be forgotten. Cnba Von The first appearance of the greatest of all plays dealing with the war in the Antilles is "Cuba's Vow," which will be presented hero next Tuesday evening. The scenic effects of this attraction are said to be particularly elaborate.

The Old llomenloaU. Denman Thompson will re appear as "Joshua Whitcomb" in his famous play "The Old Homestead," next Wednesday evening, December 7th. The plot of the play is not complex, but it is suflicient and tho interest is maintained by the revelations of human character. The central figure is a true type of American character idealized. Cyrus Prime, Aunt Matilda and the other New Hampshire folks are real personages.

The last act is a marvelous lifelike picture of home in New England. The company is the strongest that has ever enaeled this pretty idyl, and its musical features add greatly to its charm. SI ere tn Whfrc Von l.auli. If you want to laugh and forget all your troubles go to see "Next Door" at the Opera House. It is not a piece with a plot, but a happy conglomeration of lines artistically arranged for the purpose of introducing the Roycr Brothers, the famous acrobats, and other clever people.

It is a farce frolic, and there? is a laugh very minute for over two hours. The story of "Next Door" can be told in a few minutes, but the introduction of numerous phasing specialties makes it a long drawn out tale. However, you lose sight of the story during the introduction of the many new features, and it makes little difference whether there is an end to the play or not. There was plenty of good and dancing. Archie Roycr is a comedian who creates laughs by his own wil.

William C. Wilde as a fmiinaker is also big success. Irviu Roycr, as "Griinsey Rose Roycr, as "Mrs. Bush;" Li Man Reach, as "Mrs. Gush Gladys a Moyne, Helen Rates, Nellie Rums, J.

Mangean, James T. Murphy, F. Mangean, L. Mangean, John Lancaster, Clarence Rumiucll and John R. Hoover, all added to the success of last night's attraction.

Included among the high classed specialties were solos by Lillian Reach; Archie and Ror Roycr in acrobatic sketc hes; Misses Rates und Burns, the dancing wonders; Sherman, the anatomical wonder, who docs a contortion act that is all his own. He also dislocates various parts of his body. He has no equal in his line; O'Conn'el au.l Mack, a funny Irish comedy team, and Clarence Runmiel, black face comedian and vocalist. The latter was given an ova lion when ho came on the stage by his friends of the Harrisburg Wheel Club: lie was also the recipient, of a handsome bouquet of Mr. Rummcll knows how to entertain, and he won new admirers last evening.

Tho performance will be. repeated this evening, when a large audience? should greet the company. New acrobat ic features ill be introduced, with other pleasing special! ics. Mexico has several productive oil fields. THE IIAHKISBURG TELEGEAP1I.
