who were met in consultation at the
Hoffman House, New York city, speak
log of the peculiar experiences that fall
to the lot of the profession in general
related the following amusing little in
cident: “While playing a town in New
Hampshire last wiuter, the manager ot
the theatre met me on the street and
said 'I don’t believe you'll do very good
here tonight, because the last show
p’ayed here didn’t have any heat in tin
opera house, and my people will not
turn out unless the house is comforta
ble.’ It embarrassed me for a minute,
hut I finally asked him how much i
would cost to heat the house, aue
whether he burned wood or coal. H
said he could buy a cord of wood for a
dollar, so the bargain was closed about
heating the house, but I remarked, ‘How
are wo to let the people know that the
house will be warm?' ‘Leave that to
me,’ remarked the local manager. About
noontime my attention was called to
twelve boys who were carrying banners,
and ahead of the boys was the local
manager ringing a bell and calliug out,
'Hot Opera Tonight!’ It is needless to
say that we had a crowded house that
night.”

proceedings by calling to the witnes.
stand J. L. Crawford, one of the lnde
pendent operators. He is piesiden!
of the People's Coal company, which
operates the Oxford colliery at Seran
ton. Mr. Crawford, '.'ho has l>een at
tending the session each day, was sui
prised to be called and he remarked
as he took the stand:
"Tills Is a new turn of afTairs.”
"When did you ship coal last?" ask
ed--Mr. Dai row.
“Yestei day.”
"What are you getting for 11.?”
"I don't know exactly."
"Can you come near it?”
"I can if 1 want to."
■‘Don’t you wan* to?"
"No sir."
"You nre a party to this commission
and went to New Yolk to see the coal
operators?"
"Yc-s sir.”
"Then you refuse to give this com
mission that information?"
“I don’t think I am compelled to
tell."
"Which road do you sell to?"
"Delaware, Lackawanna and West
eia.”
"What do you get for it?”
"About U5 per cent ot what the Del
aware. Lackawanna and Western gets
for It”
At this point attorneys for the opor
ators objected to the inquiry proceed
ing any further along the lines
what a company's profits were.
Mr. Itairow said he called the wit
ness to show that the coal companies
were aide to pay the advance In
wages ashed for.
Wayne MacVeagh In his cr< ss exam
ination of Mr. Mitchell, he said, inti
mated! that the increase, if granted
would-ultimately be placed on the
"bowed backs of the juror." and he
wanted to show that the companies
were well able to give the imreasi
asked for without putting it on tin-
poor.
Mr. narrow then continued the ex
amination.
"How many tons do you produce a
day?"
you don't know tow much’you
get for it?" • ,
“I can give an estimate.”
"Well, what is it?" .
“About *2.50 a ton "
On further examination Mr. Craw
ford said that during the latter part
of the strike when his colliery was In
operation he got *20 a ton for his coal
Chairman Cray here stojijted the ex
amination. saying that the excejitlonal
ly high price during the str ke were
not pertinent to the Inquiry.
The miners’ lawyers caller several
witnesses who told of conditions at the
collieries of the A. Pardee company. In
the Hazelton region. One of the Wit
nesses was a boy who said he lost a
leg In the mines, received nothing foi
its loss, but lnetead when re returned
to work, the company took of? hie
wages his father's debts
Mr. DaiTow here announced that the
miners expect to close their case this
week, and now gave notlve for the
other side to be ready next week.
The companies’ attorneys said they
desired a recess for a short time after
the miners’ close to complete -he prep
aratlons of their case.
Chairman Gray said he hoped there
would be no interruption In the ses
slons.

MISS FLORENCE SMYTH
and Mr. Howard Kyle and his compan
ion p ayers will present it at the new
opera house Monday night.
The play Is said to be in its nathor’s
best vein, some have said it was the best
of all his plays. It is of an important
oharaoter, free from the* customary
friction of action of a morbid sensation ■
a ism. It has genuine humor and pathos
pitched in the right key and its com-
pactness is admirable. Net only is the
interest uniformly snstained but it
springs naturally out of the action and
not from enforci <1 encounters and out
astrophies such as so many forcible-
feeble dramatists rely upon.
The play is so sound and good that it
is a pleasure to recall its continue n. suc
cess siuce its original production three
years ago. In the prinoipal cities through
out the continent, local managers have
>een vehement in their desire for return
’nR&gpments; many such have been
ilayed and have never failed to meet
with a thronged attendance, so we are
assured.
Miss .Florence Smyth, who was every
where received with enthusiasm for her
jerformance of Alice Adams, continues
u the role. Several other of the old
nembers are retained and the same ex-
ellent performance may be expectid
upon this engagement.
Seats will be on sale this morning at
