Our general information is that many -of the drug stores of the cUy and suburbs allow tbe sale of articles thnt do not come under the head of necessities, nor within’ the provisions of the law. and employ young boys tn the selling of these, who arc thus made t© work on the Sabbath.

Gr AT Y) ihifA which theater-goer* will welcome a* Lord Dundreary at the Grand tomor row night, has beqn the engrossing topic of conversation among those In terested In the drama slnco tho grea: actor’s coming was Erst announced. No artist Is thought morn of than Mr. Rothern and. da upon each appearance here, he has added pleasure to tho patrons of the theater, they at once rcallso that there Is always a treat In atom for them when Mr. Hothern’s engagement Is announced. Tho role of Lord Dundreary which Mr. Sothern personates was originally built up *by the elder Sothern for laughing pur poses only. Mr. Sothem’s Impcrso nation of this character will offer a wide contrast to any In which he haq heretofore b«an seen. As theater goers love to laugh. Dundreary has proven the tpost popular of any of the lighter-creations Mr. Sothern hatiglv- eh the stage. True to the artistry of his nature. Mr. 8othern has madd Dundreary more than a laughing stock, however. The student of the drama will see even In th* apparent frivolity of Mr. Sothern’a Impersonation the work of the true artist and thinker. If Dun dreary appeal’s at first as an empty headed dunce who is always getting everything mixed up. the student of acting will sea that Mr. Sothern show* him .with even a system In his dis ordered Ideas, a sincerity of groping for .ideas and withal u dignity and a great deal of loveabUmqs* as Mr. Sothern presents him. Dundreary can be called "A Child with Sldewhlsk ei*.” Mr. Sothern has won foremost rank as a stake producer and In his com ing presentation of tho play, like all other productions which ho has given hare, It Is known In advance to resent th* highest nppeal of dram efforts. The scene of the play is In IB50 In England and Mr. Sotl has reflected the atmosphere L'irne surrounjHngq with the- ladle* dressing In hoop skirts and crinoline and the met^ In stocks and frock coats.

Wilson has a new play that Is o"no of the big suc cesses of th# season. It wns written by Sidney R. Ellis who gave It the appropriate title of "When Old New Y^oiic Wait Dutch.” A pleasant fea ture of the performanc® Is the new song numbers Introduced by Mr. Wil son. and one of them at least. “Helen,” which sene# as a motif throughout the play. Is certain to be whistled and sung everywhere. Tha opening scene of “When Old New York Was Dutch." the play pro vided for. Al .H* Wilson, shows a small settlement, on what Is now Manhat tan Island-In the days when. Arnerl"a was ypung.- and Is typical of the con ditions snd * atmosphere which sur rounded fh® pioneer settlers of that plot of ground which hr.s since become known as Nsw York City.

The hat pin figured largely In a caso beforo the recorder yesterday morning. It waa Anns Goodwin, or Whispering Anna, ua sho is known, bt-lng unaolo to talk above a whisper, und Annie Gibson, a tall statuesque girl, both living In the Park Hotel allay. . Gibson borrowed an Ironing board from Goodwin, promising to pay ten cents for the borrow, but did not pay for tho use of It. saying that she could not set tle until she was paid for the week’s wnshlng. Goodwin felt th# need of the ten cents and asked for It. Gibson went off and borrowed tho ten cents and paid for the use of the Ironing board. It was at tho settlement that warm words ensued, nnd this led up to the fight, during which Goodwin stabbed Gibson- In the arm with the hat pin and then tried to jab her In the atorngch with It. Of course, the usual duel with bricks fol lowed and then th* police. Gibson exhibited tbs places In her arm where ahe had been struck with the pin, and Goodwin felt all over hsr head to exhibit a bump made by the brick, but she gave It up.
