"The Vlralnlaa." Dustin Farnum returned to the Ly cum theater last evening in Owen Wis ter and Klrke LaShelle's etabe version of "The Virginian," the celebrated novel from Mr.

Wlster't pen. The role of the Virginian was originated by Dustin Farnum and he has played it so often that it appears to have been made for him. It is a superb character tzatlon in every detail entirely worthy of Mr. Farnum reputation. The audi ence that applauded him was large, crowding the house to the doors, and as enthusiastic as the occasion called for.

The principal charcters were all taken by people who found their roles congenial, Mr. Ben net Musson being particularly effective in the part of the rascally horse thief Trampas. Fully as satisfactory were Frank Vail in the part of Steve and Mabel Wright in the role of the Vermont school teacher whose love becomes the gulfing star of the cowboy lover. The Klrke La Shells company has not forgotten to giv Mr. Farnum an ade quate stage environment, the ettlnjr re veallng Horse" Shoe Pass being one of the most attractive Imaginable.

Frank Daniels Ae ala. "Sergeant Brue," the funny musical farce In which Frank Daniels appeared for five months in Broadway a year ago, and which has already been seen and much enjoyed In this city, Is book ed for the Lyceum theater for one per formance only tonight. "Sergeant Brue" essays to be a satire on London society and the police force. The title role, which Is of course played by Mr. Daniels, depicts a typical London policeman who is running a halrdresslng establishment The death of a brother In foreign parts Itkves him heir to a gigantic fortune, depending upon the unconventional an droll condition that the through his own efforts, advance him self to the position of Inspector of In order to effect the'promotion.

the sergeant, who Is anything but an expert criminal catcher, and who always confined his efforts to the direction of traffic, employs the services of a friendly crook who agrees to "fix" things for him. Several schemes are laid with a view to enabling the sergeant to display his bravery and thus obtain the coveted reward, "but In all cases they fall, and In one Instance the sergeant himself Is arrested for attempted burg lary. He is saved, however, by a cer tain Lady Blckenha.ll, In whose apartments he has been found. Through the cleverness of this lady Sergeant Brue Anally performs a deed so notable that he obtains the sought for position of Inspector, gets posses sion of his fortune and has the supreme satlagactlon of leading the titled but impecunious lady to the altar. At the Family Theater.

Appreciative beyond the manaa ment'a fondest hopes, vaudeville pat rons continue to lurnisn the John T. Kelly company the largest houses of the season It is demonstrative of two facts, namely, that the highest priced acts obtainable draw the largest houses, and that the vaudeville education of Scranton Is complete. No sketch with a more natural Irish character than Mr. Kelly was ever staffed. He doee not 'act." Every characteristic of this witty comedian on the staa Is reproduced in bis every day walk of: life.

That Is the secret of his success. Leo 8t Elmo's musical act has been a pronounced success. His little song about the. "four million dollar, capltol. plus nine;" Is a decided hit and quite apropos.

Franklin A. Batle's new song, "Idaho," Is; hie best popular song effort The musical comedy of Field and Hanson continues liable to repeated encores every performance. Anna Fran osch and her company in "A Hopeless Case," the DeGraff sisters and other features conclude the hilt The Daughters Mem." Charles Klein's latest play, "The Daughters of Men," is duplicating the success of his previous effort, 'The Lion and the. Mouse." This author enjoyed the unique distinction of having two of his plays presented at the same theater In Boston, recently. As Manager Henry B.

Harris, under whose direction the play is touring, was unable to extend the engagement of "The Daughters of Men" at the Colonial theater, the home of Its original presentation, he was compelled to arrange with the Park theater to give the play In the afternoon. It will be given at the Lyceum theater on Friday and Saturday of this week, with a special matinee Saturday. The diagram of seats will open at 9 o'clock this morning. "The Burglar's Daughter." The new melodrama called 'The Burglar's Daughter," written by Owen Davis, and under the management of the Vance A Sullivan company, closes its engagement at the Academy today, matinee and night. This play is a powerful drama of New York life and is free from the least vulgarity.

"Kerry Gfflw," at the Academy. Joseph Murphy's famous play, "Kerry Gow," with Allen Doone in the title role, will be the attraction at the Academy for three days, beginning tomorrow. "Kerry Gow" is a play of mechanical excellence, a theatrical play of great merit. Allen Doone as an actor of Irish characters is a model of excellence who possesses a fine, robust tenor voice. SAN FRANCISCO HARBOR.

Perhaps the Moat Notable "Bottle" Harbor la the World. Perhaps the most notable "bottle" harbor in the world Is that at San Francisco. Here is a vast reach of water fifty five miles long and In some parts twelve In width. Into this bay the tides of the Pacific flow through the famous Golden Gate. This Is a strait about a mile in width in its narrowest part and very deep.

The proud Call fornlans look out over this serene expanse and tell you that here is ancho age for the combined navies of the world, which indeed seems a very mild statement of the case. Aside from the Immensity of this harbor facility It Is Interesting to notice that California's two big rivers after traversing the great interior valley flow into this bay. Thus nature has furnished two serviceable water roads leading from a most notable natural harbor into the very heart of a rich farming, mining and lumbering region. These rivers, the Sacramento and San Jacquln, are of the same commercial significance to California that the Hudson is to New York. The harbor at San Francisco Is more noteworthy because it is the only one of first magniture south of Puget Sound.

Between these points California presents to the Orient an Inhospitable cliff coast, only occasionally broken by a little beach or minor Inlet. Little coasting steamers making landings, it is true, at several points along this grim front, but it is a matter of considerable hazard. In some places along this coast great cranes fixed upon the cliff hoist people and freight ashore in baskets. And the daring little skipper must even then keep one eye to wind ward lest a crashing storm drive In upon him and forever terminate his service on the sea. Thus It is that the two great harbors mentioned must for all time share a monopoly of the Pa clflc ocean commerce.

One familiar with the Atlantic seaboard can parallel the situation by blotting out in his mind's eye all the ports between Savannah and Portland save only New York and between these in place of the numer ous hospitable Inlets substitute scarcely broken sea cliff. He will then have the conditions before him which give to San Francisco its pre eminence. Walter J. Kenyon in St. Nicholas.

A Brilliant Showing in chief ambition In life, which so far has been thwarted by Klngr Efl ward's Inability to appreciate Mr. Astor's qualifications for a handle to his name, despite his enormous contributions to British charities. It Is stated that King: Edward now takes a different view and has himself suggested the bestowing: of a title. For this reported change of heart William Waldorf Astor Is indebted to his second son, John Jacob.

A few weeks ago this son, who Is a subal tren fn the Life guards, very gallantly rescued one of his troopers who was drowning in the Thames at Windsor. The king heard of this and expressed his admiration of the young 'Anglo American's courage and presence of mind.

BASS, Manager. in. Mr. Connor would like to tell you, Mr. Voter, everything you are entitled to know about the office of county treasurer.

There is something about the depositing of the "money received by him as county treasurer that should interest you. You must know that the treasurer of this county receives hundreds of thousands of dollars each year which he must deposit in the bank. Now, Mr. Connor is opposed to a monopoly of any kind. He is the firmest kind of a believer in a square deal for everybody.

When he took office he did not select a single bank which it might be to his interest to favor in Which to deposit the county funds. Instead he carefully selected a or more banks throughout the county and he divided the funds among these banks as squarely and fairly as he could. This is the kind of square deal he has practised towards the banks' of the county and which he will continue so long as he is in office. There have been no special favors and no bank has had a monopoly of the county funds. Now, Mr.

Voter, do you think his opponent will be as fair? Can he be as fair? Will his circumstances of life permit him to give the square deal to the banks of the county. A man is usually guided by his environments and he is only the same as the rest of mankind in a ase of this kind. It is very certain therefore that under the he would foster a bank monopoly. in his administration of the affairs of the office of county treasurer. What are the conditions which would surround the Republican candidate in the event of his election? Well, here they are: He is a heavy stockholder in the West Side bank, an institution which has but comparatively few stockholders.

As treasurer he would certainly have a selfish interest in disposing of the immense deposits of the county. In other words he would have an ax to grind and he would be equal to the occasion. The banks that now hold the. county's money could prepare to say farewell to them and the West Side bank could arrange at once to enjoy a monopoly of the deposits. Do you believe, Mr.

Voter, that he will not give way to his selfish interest and that he will remember that there are other banks in the county besides the one in which he is such a heavy stockholder which in all fairness are entitled to their share of the county's money. Answer this question for yourself, Mr. Voter. The answer will not be a hard one. MR.

VOTER of Lackawanna county, you are entitled to all the information about the candidates for election in this campaign which can possibly be gathered. You are entitled to know "the all" about a candidate that you might judge of his fitness before exercising the highest privilege you enjoy as an American citizen, namely, casting your ballot. P. F. Connor is a candidate who is proud to have anything known about him, for his record from the first day he entered public life in his home town in Carbftndale down to this day has been with out a shadow.

There is nothing in all his career that he fears will turn up at this time to embarass him. As President Roosevelt said of a man of national prominence, "He is a square man." The Republicans know this and they have learned this fact after making a desperat effort to dig up something which they might use against him in this campaign. If von are a believer in a square deal and opposed to a monopoly of this kind you will vote for P. F. Connor, the man who is noted for the square deal in all things, both in and out of office..
