MOXDiY, JANUARY 29. 1894. AMUSEMENTS. Aeademr of Music. rAe iMzzler To night.

Tho main, and it can be truly said, the only object of "The Darzler" is to amuse its hearers, and that it realizes this intention is very evident from the continuous laughter and applause. The company contains a number of people who are clever in their respective lines. They ill tell a funny story get off a joke, and then alternate with song, dance and specialty, so that the evening passes in a very entertaining maimer. Friend Fritz will be here to morrow evening. The story is one of love, pure and simple, but told io a way that is ot itselt a dramatic novelty.

The musical setting was composed by Julian Edwards, and is catchy and entertaining, and in lull harmony with the play. The company is one able to meet all requirements, dramatically and musically; it is the Manola Mason troupe and needs no commendation at our bands. The Hankera Daughter is to be produced on Wednesday evening by Cross en's company. The tioupe, scenery and costumes have been favorably spoken of elsewhere. The pioduction is for the benefit ot the Mayor's charity fund, and a large house can be confidently looked for.

Six hundred tickets have already been sold. The play has always been a reat favorite. The Span of Life company appeared before three large audiences Friday, Saturday afternoon and evening. Jfersonal. Col.

D. C. Keller and Christopher Ganater returned from Jacksonville, where they witnessed the big fight. George C. Frame, of this city, attended the opening of the midwinter exposition at San Francisco on Saturday.

Dufree, of Philadelphia, was the guest of the Amphion musical club yesterday. Miss Amy Gillis returned yesterday from a four weeks' visit to friends in Philadelphia and Chester.

The Danbury Hat Shops Trouble. Danbuey, Jan. 28. All of the eighteen hat factories that have been in volved in labor difficulties for the past nine weeks will be running to morrow. Twelve of tbem opened Thursday as independent shops, and the other six will start up some time to morrow as union shops.

The six manufacturers had to secure the consent of their associations, after obtaining the concessions of the unions, and at a meeting of the manufacturers' association last night they were released from their bonds of 4,000 and given permission to open their shops to the union. There are certain conditions under w.iich the manufacturers were released that are not known, but enough has been learned to make it certain that the move is only a tem poiary one, and they may discharge their help uain inside of a month. The butters have not returned io work in the shops have opened independently as speedily as was nt first thought, and it is asserted that these six shops will be opened to the unions to give employment to a portion of the locked out people, who are only too ready to go to work in union shops, po that those who still hold ont will get uneasy, seeing a part of their number working and return themselves to independent shops. These six manufacturers are still members of the Manufacturers' Association and their interests are all the same. The hatters look upon the opening of the six factories as union shops as an entering wedge, and say they are confident that others will follow the example.

Na Kitra State License Required. The habeas corpus hearing in the case the County Treasurer against William Calder, manager of the "Span of Life" company, who appeared at the Academy ol Music, for not paying $50 State license, took place before Judge Endlich on Saturday. Edwin Sassaman and ex Judge Sassanian appeared for County Treasurer Bright, and District Attorney Flood and George W. Wagner appeared for the Commonwealth. After hearing eome testimony showing that John D.

Mishler paid a State license for the Academy of Music, and that the plays are produced under his contract, Judge Endlich rendered a decision discharging Calder. In his decision Judge Endlich said when a theatre is under the control of a person who pays certain performers for their services the exhibition is his and not that of the troupe. Requiring the payment of a State license for each performance would he an imposition amounting to a practical prohibition of entertainments, and would keep the revenue from the State that the act requires.

High. daughter of Aaron High, 1124 Oley street, were married by Rev. F. K.Huntzinger at his parsonage. Calvin P.

REV. MYERS' SERMON. (Continued frorojlrat Kinir Raul resented David's absence, and spoke insulting and bloodthirsty lan guage to rnnce jooatuau, uu even hurled a javelin at bis bead. It did him no hurt, bat the princely friend rose and wnnt out to meet David. So kings sit down to feasts where joy is expected to overflow tbe cup but often the herbs are bitter and the heart is full of envy.

This is tbe story ot palaces where tbe powerful and the rich feast on costly viands. They hae tbe best but otten can't enjoy it, for tbe seasoning of rivalry and envy and jealousy that is strewn over them. Happy the contented poor who laugh over the smoking porridge. "And David's place was empty." Now I think how that "vacant seat" has been made the theme of many a funeral solace. Not aul's murderous thought, but God's merciful love has been made to shine upon it in many a bereaved home.

What foolish archery Prince Jonathan is practicing out there in the field! Now be shoots beyond the stone Ezel and crif loudly to the boy who runs to fetch the arrows "See, they are beyond thee." David is at hiding behind that stone, and here is the trysting place of the two immortalized friends. This trick of archery tells to David that Saul is of murderous intent toward bim. The boy is dismissed they meet. Sacred spot! Sacred scene! Hearts of earth never raet so trne. Angels may draw the veil and call it blessed.

THE CONSEQUENCE OF A L.IK. David that very night escapes to Nob, where the Tabernacle is pitched Most likely it is on the outskirts of Mount Olives. It is late of Friday, and tomorrow will be the Sabbath. No one will travel on tbe holy day to find bim. He appears at the door of the tabernacle, not much like the son in law of the king.

Tbe prelate Ahimelech and the priests are astonished and doubtful. David told a canning falsehood, pretending that be was on a secret mission from King Saul. To his request tbe new bread is given him to eat, just freshly placed upon the altar, and which alone the priests dare eat. While within he espies Doeg, the keeper of Saul's stables, who tarries there over the Sabbath also and tbe fugitive is in consternation again. This very Doeg, who had fetched David to play for the mad king, will on tbe morrow let out the secret.

And so it turned out to be. The story goes that the monarch soon took revenge. He had killed eighty five priests, all Nob, and tbe women and babes. A dreadful consequence for a lie. We never can arrest the dire results of an evil action.

You may run after a lie it runs faster than you do. David might have given all he owned the possibility ot a throne even but the consequence of that lie he could not revoke. Ab! you may repent of a sin, and you may be forgiven but the wjrk of your sin has been started, and it will go on. Tbe infidel dies, and be gladly would recall his books. He may burn them but those who have read and learned to scoff, will scoff on.

You may be sorry that you have led your companions into tbe wrong way but see your repentance does not atone for their sin. They are your disciples of sin and your siu multiplies and goes on and on. If David bad remembered that not only Poeg was at Nob but God also he might not bave let that lie stand. A man who tells a lie ought to have a good memory a nest full of contradictions follow. DAVID PLAYING THE POOR.

In that tabernacle David finds the renowned sword of Goliath. He booties it on, and drags it over tbe battlefield of the giant. Behold in his despair tbe fugitive will throw himself into the hands of the' Philistines, his enemies. David let go his bold on God and see into what danger he is running. I think when a young man goes wrong the best that can happen is shameful failure.

He will come back again. King Achish in Gath receives him right loyally but the Philistine lords espy their champion's sword, and David's life is again in jeopardy. David might have known this but a man in sin always does something foolish always hangs out a tell tale sign. Now the young Betblehemite resorts to a new strategy he plays the madman. He feigns a maniac's face, and goes about mumbling to himself incoherently, and picks up tbe hill chalk and scribbles on the gates and walls foolish things, until all become disgusted with bim, and turn him out.

Now all this may kve been as fair, as a game of strategy to gain a battle, but how undignified! how far down in courage, this man who dared to meet the giant of Gath; who defeated tbe hosts of the Philistines several times, over against many odds; of whom the daughters of Israel sang "Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands," who was the anointed king of Israeli David played the fool, but if you analyze the actions of many mortals to day, it is an old game that is practising yet. i "The fool hath said in his heart tbere is no God." There aie many unbalanced minus on me views ot the eternity and immortality. A gross, worldly life is insanity. The young man who sows his wild oats is playing the fool. The hypocrite is a David feigning insanity down in Gath.

There are many souls out in the rounds of sinful pleasures, commercial dishonesties, and sacri legious issi patious against manly character, soul dignity, society morals, religious appeals, the cross, death and judgment for which, when coming to Heaven's door, they will hear, "Out, you have been playing tbe fool." Behold! David's flight to Adulluru. In tbe cave he hides, and in the rocky retreat he would be safe. Ye fugitives who have lose tbe hope and favor of God, I point you to a refuge of escape "Rock of Aires cleft for me. Let me hide myself in thee." Oisposal. It is a highly gratifying circumstance that the city of Heading finds some other disposiciou for its sewage than spilling it into the Schuylkill.

There is no way to compel that city to refrain from adding its contamination to tbe tainted waters of the Schuylkill. If Norristown, Potts town and the other Schuylkill towns and villages this side of Heading would follow its beautiful exsmple and find some oiher outlet for their sewage and impure drainage than tho Schuylkill river, that stream would be enormously improved as a source of Philadelphia water supply. Sooner or later it will be a crime under the law to pollute any stream that is tbe source ot any city's water supply lower down iu its course. Until then our graveyards will continue to grow fat on tbe premature deaths resulting from tbe use of impure water. I'hila.

Declaration Hade by the Great Doctor Potoerfciu ior in reicnt 01 in reo ple of the World Has Aroused Much Attention. London, Keg Jan 18. The following statement made by the late Dr. J. Mil ner Fothergill, the eminent scientist, who was physician for the London Hospital for diseases of the chest, has made quite a seosation.

After denouncing oils and similar substances when used as food, he said "Fatty, oily foods cannot be tak by those whose stomachs are weak or whose digestive organs are ont of order. What food, should each people have? I say hey ed food which acts as a st renpthener and sustainer.as fuel to feed the lamp of that is starch food. A soluble starch food which will be readily DR. J. M1LNER FOTHEBGILI.

ass mi la ted by the digestive organs is the food for people whose digestive organs are weak It wat only natural that such a statement coming from so high an authority should have made a profound impression among the Isading physicians and scientists of Ku rope, and it brings into special prominence the recent discovery of pre digested starch food known to doctors, to scientists and the world as Pas kola. Comparatively few people outside the highest medical circles know of this wonderful discovery, but it is known to possess the qualities of flesh forming, strength imparting, life giving power which has never been known before in the history of the world. Tests which have been made showing a weaK, pale, run down condition, accompanied with indigestion and general loss of energy, have shown most remarkable results, and it is not improbable that the discovery of Paskola will be accepted as the flesh forming food of the nineteenth century by the highest authorities in both Europe and America. Certainly, it is superseding cod liver oils, beef tea, and the fatty preparations which have been used so extensively in the past, and the results so far achieved amply warrant the wisdom of those who have taken such action. A pamphlet giving full particulars respecting Paskola will be sent on application to the Pre Digested Food 108 Uuane N.

When it is considered that writing with a pen is a purely mechanical operation and bH to be laboriously acquired, tbere seems to be no reason why auy other mechanical method may not also be mastered.

Pastor Kneipp, the famous discoverer of the cure," who was appointed chamberlain by the pope, cared little for tbe honor. He did not even take the trouble to open the letter announcing the appointment and first learned of the honor conferred upon him by tbe arrival of a deputation nt the Woersihofen cloister to congratulate him. He declined to be addressed, however, as "monsignor." It was with diliiculty that he was persuaded to leave his retreat to go to Koine to thank the pope. Home Correspondent.
