THE BROOKLYN BAILT EAGLE. STEW YORK, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1898. FOR CHURCH PURPOSES. MI0HAEL JOSEPH DADY. JULIA MARLOWE'S RETURN.

Mayor. He converses with all callers unaffect edly and in most cases good humoredly. Shev lin has undoubtedly profited by his association archness that were delightful. Then there was a quin tette about fairy tales which is ar'rau'dVI and the gallery could no: resist the temp Brodie's saloon on the Bowery. The latter is supposed to be an exact reproduction of actual not exactly what the patrons of the Star ap with the veteran leader of the Kings County Democracy and has adopted the methods of that remarkably successful political chieftain in dealing wjth the rank and rile of the organ ization.

One who knows him well said yes terday, after watching Mr. McLaughlin's most trusted lieutenant deal with a room full of place hunters and ward leaders: "One thing the regular Democrats of Brooklyn can depend upon in the ease of McLaughlin's retirement from leadership or death, Shevlin will bs one Democrat who will never consent that the organization on this side of the East River shall be a mere tender to Tammany Hall. He is friendly with Croker. and most of the latter's lieutenants, but he believes that Kings County amounts to as much in state politics as Tammany if not more, and he will be as resolute and ag aresbive jn stanoing lor tne inueDendence of our organization as Croker is in standing for his people. He has cuite as much nerve as Croker has.

nnd he can't be bluffed. McCar ren and McCarty are his warm personal friends and the three will stand together, for there are no jealousies between them. They make a strong combination and are a match for any three men on the other side of the bridge when it comes to political strategy. It is but fair to Croker to say that in all his i I I tation to whistle the ehurus to the I man. In fact, the whole opera delighted audience and is a success.

Lord Tells the Members of the Brooklyn Heights Seminary Club About Its More Important Details. If the members of the Brooklyn Heights Seminary Club who were present at a meeting held yesterday afternoon at the home of Miss Jones. 461 Clinton avenue, have not acquired a clear idea of how a representative metropolitan newspaper is conducted and an added appreciation of the value of such a journal, it is not the fault of Chester Lord, managing editor of the "VeW York Sun, who lectured before them on the sub Jec; of the "Newspapers." In presonting Mr. Lord to his audience, Miss Nina Perry, chairman of the entertainment committee, said that it was his first appearance before a woman's club. Mr.

Lord stated that he i had been asked to say something new about! the newspapers, a request which placed him in somewhat of a predicament, there seemed: Plai' is reached. She sacrifices her lover to so little to say that was new about such a arTa Vanco Eammar subject. If the lecturer did not, her audience in doing so.

The Bijou. "The Electrician," another of Charles E. Blaney's plays, was presented at the Bijou Theater last night by a large and capable company. It deals with the struggles of an inventor, the macinations of his enemy, with enough of love making and comedy thrown in to make it an interesting story. A feature of the play ls the presentation in the second act of 'the dynamo room of the Edison electric lighting plant in the suburbs of Denver, with all its machinery in full operation.

Here the inventor is supposed to have been killed by the villain, who held him against live wire, and the livid flashings of the blue light were startling enough to satisfy the most ardent advocate of. stage realism. Frank Karrington. who played the double role of Tom Edson, the electrician, and Harry Ford, superintendent of the Cripple Creek Mine, bore the burden of the play, and Arthur E. Sprague, as Kenneth Sauvage, made a clever villain.

Conspicuous In the east was P. A. Anderson's portrayal of Bill Turner, the drunken fireman of the electric lighting plant. He played it to the life without overdoing It. "The Electrician" will be succeeded by "Fallen Thieves." Hyde Behman's.

There are two short plays, both unusually good for a variety performance at Hyde Behman's, this week. The first and better of these is played by Johnstone Bennett and has been seen at this house before. Miss Bennett is now assisted by George Leslie, who does his part creditably. Miss Bennett Is as entertaining as ever in her five, characterizations and her tough girl and sou brette from Butte, are hard to excel. The other skit, is ontitled "Counsel for ibe Defense," and is enacted by Mr.

and Mrs. William Robyns. As the irascible old lawyer who goes out of his way to save the life of an East Side girl's sweetheart. Mr. Robyns does excellent work, while some of the slang and sayings of Mrs.

Rubyns as a tough girl cause great amusement. Mines and Remington give an act. entitled "Liife on Cherry Hill," and have num'her of good songs that are new here. Others on the bill are Alburtus Bartram. club experts; Ray L.

How He Is Viewed as a. Harmonizer of Republicans by One Member of His Party Dr. Patton's Sound Xdvice to Princeton Undergraduates. James Shevlin as the Spokesman of a Strong Political Triumvirate. Michael J.

Dady confidently oxpects to be elected chairman of the Republican executive committee and he said yesterday: "If my name was Charlie 'there wouldn't be any objection to my election." In commenting upon this remark a Twenty third Ward Republican said: "No matter by what name Dady might be called his name like the rose would smell as sweet. The placing of this man at the head of the most important committee in ttoe Republican organization of this county will not tend to promote harmony in the party. To make him chairman will offend thousands of Republicans who did not stand by their party nominations at the last election. A more offensive selection could not be made. Dady is known throughout Kings County as a politician who left his party in its hours of adversity to join the Democratic organization.

He is known far and wide as the friend and associate of John Y. McKane; as a man who tried hard to prevent McKane's conviction; as a politician whose chief aim in politics about election times has been to secure the handling of campaign funds. And tihls is the sort of man who is put forward to bring back into tbe Republican ranks the thousands of independent and non offlce hunting Republicans who buried General Tracy at the polls in November last. So long as men of the Dady stamp are elevated to positions of honor in the Republican organization just so long will a large number of self respecting Republicans refuse to act in harmony with the local machine. If Timothy L.

Woodruff were a politician of foresight he would see that the election of Dady to a place of prominence in the organization would do him (Woodruff) barm when he runs for re election. With Dady at the head of the Republican executive committee there are many Republicans who. will he reconciled to Democratic rule. For one I would rather see intelligent Democrats in office than Republicans of the Dady type. No, it is not the name of Michael which causes opposition to Dady, for there was a saint named Michael, and Dady's full name is Michael Joseph Dady, although he is not at all like either the saint or the Hebrew Joseph of varied experiences.

It is Dady's record as a politician and not his name that is against him." On Sunday afternoon last President Pat ton of Princeton University said, In the course of an address delivered to the undergraduates of the institution: "There never was less reason for adverse criticism of Princeton than during the period in which it has been so unsparingly bestowed upon us. I have taken pains to find out the truth and I am still unshaken in my convic "un mat tne tendency in Princeton is steadily in the direction of a diminished use of alcoholic drinks. Still, I must not be blind to the fact, that after making all allowance for willful misrepresentation or mistake, I am constrained to believe that there is far more of what is called moderate drinking among us than the wisest and best friends of Princeton could wish, and there are those among you who are putting their future in peril by the excessive use of intoxicating drinks. In stamces of intoxication are comparatively rare, but they occur nevertheless, and there a tendency, I find, even among some of those who cannot be charged with it themselves, to think too lightly of the sin of drunkenness." While not condemning moderate drinkers President Patton urged the students to refrain from setting any example which might weaken the moral purpose or shake the moral integrity of weak brothers who are easily overcome by temptation. He believes that moral suasion will do more for the undergraduates than prohibition, for he said at a dinner at which Princeton graduates were his auditors ten or twelve days ago: "The friends who give us advice do not know our difficulties, and I cannot stop to explain them.

But one thing is sure, prohibition will not atop drinking in Princeton. It will only increase the trade in corkscrews." The papers which reported the foregoing remarks said that they were applauded again, and again. Dr. Patton's hearers evidently believed that ho knew more about the temper of the boys at Princeton than their temperance critics. The following extract from a report of dinner which appeared in the New York Herald shows how graduates of Princeton emphasized their disapproval of the criticisms which had been directed against the institution by the temperance critics, and a clergyman joined with them in their defiance of hostile criticism: 'About the middle of the banquet, A.

C. James and H. L. Bridgeman arrived as a aeputation trom the Amherst Association, dining in another room, bearing a bottle i of champagne draped in Amherst colors, and a greeting of good fellowship. They were cheered and the Rev.

Richard S. Harland and Job Hedges were delegated to return the compliment." The report fails to state whether the rev erend gentleman carried the bottle or simply acted as an escort to the bottie holder. At all events, however, the incident was impressive and significant of disdain for those who have criticised the habits of Princeton men, and it gave additional force to Dr. Patton's declaration that prohibition at Princeton would only increase the trade in corkscrews. Since Hugh McLaughlin's departure for Florida a triumvirate of leaders, composed of James Shevlin.

Senator McCarren and ex Senator John McCarty, have been in charge at the Willoughby street headquarters, receiving applicants for places and giving instructions concerning tho running of the machine in the several wards of the borough. There has been no friction between these three leaders, and their friends say there will not be any. In most cases, however, Shevlin seems to be the spokesman of the triumvirate. He gives his orders quietly but with an unmistakable air of authority, and it appears to be generally accepted among those who visit the auction rooms at 9 Willoughby street that what he says "goes" without contradiction. Shevlin has grown quite gray within the last year and his manner ls correspondingly grave, and he seems free from the offensive air of self consciousness which characterized his assumption of leadership while representing Hugh McLaughlin when Mr.

Boody wss Only a rounded spoonful is required, of Cleveland's Baking Powder not a heaping spoonful. The Charming ActreSS EssaVS Ko i mantlC Drama. I FRANK DANIELS' NEW OPERA. 'The Countess Valeska" and "The Idol's Eye" Are New and Striking Productions Some Good Melodramas and Comedies at the Other Theaters Vesta Tilley and Johnstone Bennett Head the Vaudeville Contingent. The craze for romantic plays has swept that charming young actress Julia Marlowe into its current, but she varies the fashion somewhat by presenting a romantic play in which a woman is the central figure.

At least in the version which Miss Marlowe plays the woman is the center of interest; in the original German "the tall Prussian," from whom Rudolph Startz named his play, was probably a more important figure than the Countess Valeska. Miss Marlowe has changed all that. are less clearly individualized and appeal less convincingly the audience. This may be partly due to the fact that they do not suit Miss Marlowe or the chief actor who ap pears with her in the play. The first weakness in it is that the part of the passionate, romantic countess herself is a misfit, for dainty Miss Marlowe, whose personality lends itself more readily to comedy and to gentle pathos than it does to the grand manner and tragic depths.

Then J. M. Colville has by no means the attractive personality nor the supple warmth to make the tall Prussian about whom the story turns a sympathetic figure. The play is laid in Napoleon's Russian campaign and the action takes place on the day before Friedland. The Countess Valeska is a loyal Pole and an ally of Napoleon, who is coming to her chateau for the night.

But she has had a love episode with the tall Prussian, whom she imagines to have slighted her and whom accordingly she thinks she hates. That self deception works very well until, looking out of her castle window, she sees the tall Prussian pursued by Frenchmen and in sore danger of his life. Then she rushes out, an attendant smuggles the captain into the castle and later passes him off as her overseer when the French search the castle for their missing enemy. There the Prussian meets his father. The latter Is in hiding to kill Napoleon, and induces the son by taunts of cowardice to aid him.

One of Napoleon's aides de camp, ttwn tuv ai lust the Prussian. Valeska saves him by threatening to declare that he found tho Prussian in her bedroom. The Frenchman loves her too much to disgrace her and undertakes to secure from his enemy a pledge of honor that he will not plot against Napoleon during his stay in the castle. The lat ter declines to givo it. his refusal opens the eyes of Valeska and tho crucial point of the be deeply moving, out uoiville, though an excellent actor in certain lines, was hard and cold in this part last night.

The audience who sympathized with Valeska felt that she was being deliberately slighted by a man wCio ought to have suffered when he was forced to give her up. That was the least compliment he could pay her, but it is a hard part to play. Bassett Roe has already tried it and been set aside for Mr. Colville. Possibly If Henry Jewett had been available the effect of the play might have been better, but there is nobody else in mind who would have improved much on Mr.

Colville's performance. His deficiencies leave the entire weight of the great scenes upon Miss Marlowe's shoulders. She will bear that burden easily enough in "For Bonnie Prince Charlie," as Juliet, or as Parthenia. but she is less happy In this play, where she has a Modjeska or a Bernhardt part and does not quite rise to its possibilities. She is, however, a regally lovely countess to look upon, she plays the part with discretion and good taste, and In the tender moods she is moving and pathetic.

Tho one touch lacking is tragic force which the part needs at imes. The rest of the company seems good, though It is hardly possible to judge as yet of the qualities of Alfred Kendrick. Miss Marlowe's new leading man. He is accepta ble as Che. French aid de camp, and if he mav.

Next week Miss Marlowe will nl.iv "For Honnie rrtneo Uharlie. "Ingomar. "As You Like It" and "Romeo and Juliet." The Columbia. If Harry B. Smith had kept nearer to the plot of "The Incarnation of Krishna Mtil vaney" he would have made a better hook for "Tho Idol's Eye." which Frank Daniels brought to the Columbia last night.

The li brettist, however, has combined (ho temple scene from the Mulvaney story with the idea in the magic Jewel story of Kipling and in troduced into the plot some characters and i complications oi wnien Kipling never i Ircamed mis was noutittess necessary fit the etar is aeronaut opera to Frank Daniels. The supposed to be an American and he comes down upon the scene in the firs and second acts from a bal loon. He makes his exit at the etnl of two of i the acts by climbing into the basket of bis bal loot and sailing back into the nies again. 1 But even if Mr. Smith has departed a long way from Kipling he has succeeded in creat log a series of situations that are amusing and in fitting a part to the personality of Mr.

Daniels so that he fills It to bursting. He aide Mr. Daniels there are In the cast two ether clowns or comedians or whatever else 1 the fun makers may be called. One is Will Danforth. who represents a lire eating Cuban 1 planter named Tabasco and 'the other is Alfred C.

Wheelan, for whom a burlesque of Dan Daly's Scotchman has been ar I ranged. Wheelan is different from Daly. He does not sing, but he goes about the' stage saying "Hoot, moo," and whenever he hoots Daniels' petticoats drop to the floor. Wheel an ha. i the idol's eye, or the magic jewel, at the beginning of the play.

All the girls fall in love w.r.h him. and Daniels think that it is because, he wears a kilt, or i. i other words a petticoat.

Fanny Davenport commenced the second week of her engagement at the Fifth Avenue Theater last, evening iiy presenting her new play. "Joan." to an audience which, despite the Inclemency of the weather, was fairly large.

The play. which was seen at the Ampbion a fow weeks ago. still 'hows evidences of being now. but ln acting of Miss Davenport in the second part of the lirst act. and that of Melbourne throughout the play rescues it from being alternately dreary and cteaply melodramatic.

The Eden Musee The Eden Musee presented some vivid cinematograph pictures of the Passion Play as given at Obcr Ammergau yesterday. This is altogether the most novel and striking exhibition which the Musee has ever given and is the precursor of a flood of Passion Play pictures.

Augustln Daly has had a series prepared and Intended to show them at his Broadway Theater in Lent. If he still intends to do so the competition between bis exhibition and that, at the Musee will raise much comment and New York is likely to talk Passion Play actively. Meanwhile the views at the Musee are well worth seeing and will attract crowds. The other features of the exhibition are as usual. THE GOVERNOR THEIR GUEST.

I The value of education in successful news I paper work was particularly emphasized by ljora anu ne said that Horace Greeley made a big mistake when he exoressed a preference for printers rather than college bred men as his associates in journalistic work. The staffs of the best newspapers were being constantly recruited from the ranks of college men. who had been trained to think and to reason and were therefore particularly valuable for newspaper work.

The newspapers were the greatest source of general information In the world to day, continued the lecturer, and those who wished to be considered abreast of the times must read the newspapers. He advised his hearers to read with discrimination, selecting that from which they were likely to derive the most benefit and to remember what they read. The reporter who was most valuable to an editor was one possessing knowledge of some particular topic, and at the top of the list stood the good political reporter. Knowledge of COMING EVENTS.

At Hi o'clock the lecturer's description of how the details of an unexpected occurrence of national importance would be obtained by a large newspaper. Mr.

Lord's description was very realistic and the young women listened in wonder. As an illustration of how news was obtained from out of town the speaker read a number of query telegrams concerning news of all sorts and told how much space would be given to each. The manner of collecting the news from the centers in the large cities was also minutely described. Of women's part in newspaper work Mr. Lord said; "I have been asked what is women's status in journalism, what does she do? How is she paid? How dees her work compare with that of men? The fact tha't overy newspaper now has from five to fifteen women on its staff, demonstrates that woman is a useful and an essential part of the force.

She writes reviews, criticisms, sketches, special articles, fashions, makes reports of women's meetings and does some general reporting work, and she does this just as well as the men. If her physical strength were equal to that of the men she would do more general work, but as it is net her field is necessarily limited. Newspaper work is done under great stress and the elosijig houtui find everybody on a rush. Rapidity ot thought, concentration of mind, push, nerve, self possession and physical endurance are necessary qualifications for newspaper work and the strain is severe. That women cannot do the work that is daily re quired of the men I do not say.

but she is 1 not doing It and judging by the number of women who break do wn under the present ftrain, I think the time, is remote when women can do all that is expected of men. I say this without, prejudice for no editor has been more encouraging toward women in journalism than 1 have been during the past seventeen years. Women are quite as active and earnest as men and even more willing and conscientious. Upon respectable newspapers women find their occupations congenial, while on the disreptuable sheets they are often required to do what ls annoying, humiliating and degrading Their pay is the same as that of men for the same work, and some of them make a week" An informal reception was tendered to Mr. Lord during the social hour which followed the close the lecture.

Mrs. William presided during; the brief business session, with which the meeting opened, and anions; other transactions it was voted to send a loiter from the club to Mayor Van Wyck urging the re appointment of women now serving on the Brooklyn Boartl of Education.
