The old man is played by W. H. Corapton, who is so easy and gentle that everybody likes him, too. William Morris and Orrin Johnson are manful as a pair of poverty stricken, high minded yonng fellows. Cyril Scott brines a certain clearance to the part of tho literary man.

James 0. Barrows is amusing as the sneak and, like Chad band after buttered muffins, he almost oozes grease. Ho is so obviously a hypocrite that, if he were real, he would get precious fjw people to go into his stock companies. His difficult scone when confronted by both his wives, whom he tries with larded smiles and saccharine speech to conciliate, is managed cleverly. Sidney Ann strong ob tho defrauded niece avoids excess of sentiment.

Kato Donin Wilson played to the lifo tho frowsy, unpleasant lodging house keeper, deserted by tho oily one, and over after stored with tears. Agnes Miller plays a bright little girl, who has to love Mr. Morris, and does it so sweetly and naturally, coyly nd playfully, that every man in the audience hates Mr. Morris while tho lost act is in pro jross. "The Councillor's Wife" is in no wise a startling play, but its ease of movement and the apparent probability of some of it deserve to make it popular.

Tho infant class sang "Star of the East," the boys singing one verse and the glris tho next. The littlo tots did very well and their e.Torts seemed to please tho large audience Miss Bessie Bryer then told the story of the newsboy, whose bright, honest face attracted the attention of a merchant on a cold Christmas night and who for pity bought out the chap's stock of papers and for lack of change gave the boy a gold piece, with tho injunction to return at a certain hour with the difference; of his failure to do so and the merchant's faith again ronowed in the duplicity ol street urchins.

Christopher's Day nursery, and yesterday twenty live chililron wore cared for there, varying jn age from (i weeks to (1 years. Their mothers leave them each morning and call for thor.i every evening, but no children aro cared for over night. Tho nursery is mainly supported by four churches St. Ami's. Grace church.

Holy Trinity and Christ church but it also receives considerable outside support. The donations at Christmas were very considerable, especially from tho churches named. There was any amount of toys, fruit and candy and, what was far better for the children, a largo quantity of line, warm underclothing. The exercises commiinend at o'clock by tho little ones marching in and around a Christmas tree, t'cjeweled with toys aud good things that the children's eyes fairly bulged with astonishment and delight. During this preliminary they sang the hymn "Christmas Morning." "Then there was ft most benevolent lookiug Santa Claus.

It is uot po.rsiblo that wo have reached tho end. Archbishop Corrlgan acted in accordance with hid own views. If his tyranny has been rebuked, and tho action on tho part of the pope means tho commencement of now era In the church, to be marked with more liberal ideas, then the attempt seems to lie to fasten upon America tho Boinnmsm of Italy.

Their leader has been restored to his old place. From July J. 1HS7. to Deeembor 23, 1.12, he has hud the hearts and ears of millions and yet he never introduced our Lord. He was nnd is a Romanist, in this he glories.

As a Roman Catholic, not us a re forinor. he is heii jeforth to be judged. THEY WORK OX NEWTOWN' CREEK. Tbe tglit Olacore ricai of a. Smelling ommlltce of flitixenv.

A beliei that some Newtown creek factories wero still in operation, although closed by law. was very generally expressod at last night's meeting of tho Citizens' association of the Fifteenth ward, held at 754 Grand street. w. McKco was in the chair and Robert Creltihton as secretary was at his customary place. Alvin T.

Walsh, president 0 tho Seventeenth ward association, was invited to speak. He said that during the day a Fifteenth ward visitor to his store, Mr. James J. MoKutoe, had suggested that requests by enjoined manufacturers ou the lineof Newtown create for additional extensions of time before llnally closing should be sternly opposed. Mr.

Walsh agreed with this view aud added that hts believed some factories on the creok, although ostensibly closed, wore still in full operation at night. Mr. McEutee, who had not expected to bo present, arrived while tho session was in progress. He agreed with what Mr. had said and declared that, while ho hail full 0:1 fldence In lioody and Corporation Counsel Jenks, ami knew that tliev wero honest earnest in their ondenvors to suppre the nuisances, he still believed that th were doniitig with a wary roe and that citizens, by watchfulness, should aid the authorities.

COLUMBIA THEATER. When Jerome K. Jerome finished "The. Councillor's Wife" he said he had aimed to make an unconventional play. Those who saw it at tho Columbia theater last night were entertained, hut they saw nothing in it that was out of the common order.

They saw merely a little comedy with some heart in it. some fun. one or two pronounced characters and a preposterous rascal. Tho merit of the play is the quiet and ease of its procedure, but that is exactly what the multitude does not regard as a merit. True, Mr.

Jerome did not write it for the hoi polloi. but the managers of theaters have to depend more on the masses for a living than on the daises. It tells of a sneak who is guilty of about every vice and crime in the calendar, except murder, and who makes them all worse by his oily and sanctimonious behavior. He deserts one wifo and, after yon have seen her. you don't blame him a whining, pining, blubbering, oppressive Mrs.

Gummidgo and marries another, and after you have seen her you don't blame him for that, either, for she is the freshest, raciest, kindest creature that an English writer of late days ever created: the nearest approach to an American girl that even Mr. Jerome has made and he writes like an American. Having done thus much, the one enters on a course of robbery. He robs his second wife, he robs his nephew aud niece: finally, he robs an elderly man who is engaged to the niece, and he is running off with his plunder whon he is stopped by this ellerly man, who makes him give back to the niece what he has stolen from her. Then he leta the rascal go.

When he has the fellow down he could jnst as well get back his own money and tho wife's money and ha ought to but ho doesn't. Moreover, he discovers that he is not loved: that a penniless artist has file niece's heart and he resigns in his favor, the curtain falling as the elderly stiffercr goes out for a walk. The oily one numbers among his sins that of being an alderman, or city councillor, and naturally his wife is a councillor's wife. It is she for whom the play is named, but sho has nothing to do with it. The second wife is tho one who is meant, for the public could not stand much of the leaky one, the Mrs.

Gummidge. and this second one permeates things as life civing breezes permeate winter weather. She had been on the statfe and that seems to be the reason why ahes so carelessly good, so cheerful and hospitable and such a deuced good fellow generally. Compared to that frigorific epitome of the proprieties, the British matron, sho is as arose to a cabbage. She has brains anil when they work she makes no concealment of it.

Once or twice her speech is unconventional and perhaps Mr. Jerome thought he had made his play Uncommon by making her so. Bhe refers to her husband as "that" and "it." hates the dull respectability by which he has surrounded her and says to a rather priggish writer who takes notes all through the piece under the very noses of the people he is studying, that sho would like him better "if he wonld not think that God Almighty made the universe just to see what he would say about it." The play is deliehtfullyed and the councillor's wife, in falling to the lot of Odette Tyler, hasheenput into just the hands that can treat it best. Miss Tyler ha never shown what she can do until cow. She has always" seemod a little constrained, a little self conscions, a little sure that people were looking at her and a little honeful that her hat was on straight She has made a rush for free dom ind cot it.

She is so frank in this part, so transparent of. nature, so contemptuous toward meanness, so fond of that are Hold It First Vuletitle FcMlval With a ItcguJar Puktor. Nestling on tho hill south of tho big ditch of tho Railroad and Terminal ccmpany i the pretty littlo white odlllco, with its quaint spire, known as xtm Urecnwoot! Heights Reformed (Dutch) church. It is located on the corner Seventh avenue and Forty first street, but as yet these thoroughfares exist only on the maps of the city surveyor, nnd tho little church is literally in the fields. It has had a hard struggle for existence, too.

It wa built in 1HSG and organized Novcmbur 12, 1831. It got along until about a month ago, under the eare of elders, deacons aud Sunday school teachers, and they did well, as th" will show, but about that dato its llrst pastor was appointed. Rev. J. J.

Burkhart, a young mr.u who is endowed with considerable energy. Last night thu Sunday sehool children, their teachers and friends, celebrated Christmas w'lh a festival and Christmas tree, it was brilliant with lights, toys and decorations, nnd festoons hung about the little church of evergreen." and cotton, that had a pretty effect. Tho church was well filled when the programme was opened by an invocation from the "pastor, which was followod by a brief address of welcome from Robert Mackie, Sunday sehool superintendent. Ho welcomed them heartily to be with them at the children's fuBtivai. aud said that i' the parents would co operate with the their children would receive a good Christian education.

There was some npplaus" here wnicn was suppressed oy tne pastor, who reminded the audience that they were in tho house of tho Lord. Miss Ida Terrell prettily recited a metrical introduction to tho singing of tho carols by the school. These were well sung and in a style that suggested a good ileal of training. The school singing was led by the pastor, who wielded a baton efficiently, and Miss Laviuia Hildebrnnd played the accompaniments woll on the organ. Ilecita ions, readings, responsive readings and enrol singing were agreeably interspersed through un extended programme, in which the children acquitted themselvos with an amount of ease and uplomb that was amusing.

Then ame an address by tho pastor, in which he asked ajl to join him in making the eliurjh a success, as ho intended trying to do. Ho had been told when coming there that he would not su' eeed. but ho did not believe it. He would admit, however, that without the aid of those present he could uot succeed, and therefora he asked their assistance, and if they helped him they would sen a great change in the church before tbey saw another New Year. II told them of tho ancient German legend of the first Christmas ree, and how Wilfred, the missionary, nmid the dark wilds of the German forests saved the life of the boy chief from death at the bands of a hoary pagan priest of Thor, hewod dowa the sacriflciul oak and in its placo proclaimed tho faith of Christ and, pointing to a small llr tree, told tho assembled people to each take one home and set it up there to remind them of tho birth of Christ.

When he had concluded a couple of rowdies in the rear seats again applauded, but ho suppressed tho applause. The evening's programme was resumed, when suddenly Santa Clans in traditional costume entered laden with tho things that children lovo either at Christmas tide, or any other tim 3 for that matter. The distribution then heiran and oranges, boxes of candy and toys were to be seen in all the little hands. Thero was a joyous time, the doxolosry was sung and all wended their way homeward through the paths of Greenwood hoights. If this church does not succeed the fault will scarcely Ho with the Rev.

J. J. Eurkhart or the ofllcers of the society. The lutter are ns follows: Klders, E. Edmonson, and Robert Mackie; deacons, A.

Weismann nnd Charles Ilildehrand. The Sunday school force, beside thj superintendent, consists of Secretary E. Edmonson, Thomas Draper, assistant superintendent; treasurer, Mrs. 31. Guoani: Adolf Weissman, librarian; teachers, Miss Mrs.

XUe Sunday School Scholars Celebrase (he Cllrisf iiirtv CSotitluys The Christmas festival of tho Sunday school of AU Saints' church, corner of Seventh avenue and Seventh street, held last evening. The church was richly decorated with evergreens and holly, and a gaily trimmed Christines tree, with brightly burning tapers, stood upon the pulpit platform. The ehur'h was filled with members of tho sehool aud their par outs and teachers. services were begun with the singing of the hvmu, "Il Cc.nie Toon the Midnight Cleur." The Rev. Molville J'oyu, rector, read the gospel for Oh: Istmas from St.

John, "KingUut the lselis for Ciiristmus" was then sung. The creed and prayers: were repeated and the school tlion s.mg "Oiir Christmas Tree." Dr. Boyd nddr. sse i a few words of welcome and greeting to the audience. Another hymn was sung and then presents were distributed among the teacher from their classes.

After this pleasant part tho evening's exercises concluded a hymn was sung and the benediction pronounced.
