An aeddent happened at thr plant
of the Yellow Fine Paper Mill com-
pany a couple of days since, that did
about five hundred dollar* worth of
damage, including the tearing op of
the slab hog.
In a small building, act aside from
the main building, there is a machine
called the hqg, that breaks the slabs
into small chips, and they are used'
in the boilers for keeping up steam.
This hog was propeflied by a small
steam engine, which ran array on ac-
count of a derangement of the gov-
ernors, and the ho* was compelled
to turn so fast and the centrifugal
force became so great that it Sew
to pieces, scattering bits Of iron and
heavy bobs through the roof of the
building, and srvrral yards nway.

Monday night for high clast musical
comedy of a refined tone and free
from the ordinary senseless matter,
known in theatrical parlance as “slap
stick" that,, is so much a feature of
the average musical comedy com-
Tonight the engagement in this
city will conclude with a presentation
of "College Chums” and judging from
the Hat of musical numbers that are
on. the bill, the piece will prove as
as those that have preceded
it. Among the musical numbers are
“I’m Going on the Choo-choo," a Mg
hit of Leo Adde’s "Heidelberg Stein,”
“Idleweiss" and "Little Arrow,” a
new Indian song. “Ob, Gee, Be
Sweet to Me, .Kid," "by the Daye-
Pistor duet and "Tipperary Norah,”
new Irish song, are both said to
be especially pleasing.
"The District Leader.”
If the noise that has been going
hround regarding the merits of “The
District Leader” which comes to the
OraBge theater Feb. 18th, there will
he h long* line confronting the ticket
window when the sale opens.
The regular fashion crowd, which
is always present at a new opening,
null he there in force, “The District
Leader” is a melodramatic production
wijji music, and many of the review-
ers in New York compared it with
George M. Cohan's “45 Minutes From
Broadway." The first act »* * re-
production of the rotunda of the
Hoffman Honse. the second act a
Kent from Chinatown, while the last
act is that of a palatial summer hon^e
on Riverside Drive. The chorus is
said to be an exceptional one, being
the possessors of good voices, be-
sides being good dancers.

“The Missouri Girl" was the bill
at the Orange theater last “bight and
the records of the box office show
that the play was one of the best
patronized which has lately been in
the Orange opera house. Comedy
spelled with a Wg “C it a proper de-
scription of the show, and despite the
fact that “The Missouri Girl" has
played in this section a number of
times, the attraction wu very satis-
fying. This plsy, from the pen of
Fred Raymond, is desn throughout
and presents s hundred thoroughly
good laughs. “Particular mention
might be made of the work of Miss
Sadi* Raymond, who, a* “Daisy,”
won the hearts of the audience by her
clever acting. Frank Farrell 4s
“Zeke” caused s laugh by his every
action. Good specialties abound in
the piece, Blanche Edwards, the lady
baritone, coming in for a Urge share
of the applause. A voice which would
do credit to a singer of the sterner
sex was heard to advantage, and won
for its possessor deserved recogni-
tion.
Tonight the offering at the opera
house will be “A Lawyer’s Wife,” or
“A Fight for a Million,” by the
Spooner-Wafiock Stock company, for
the benefit of the Ladies’ Civie Club.
