Vut the public tnsto Is various, ntul it scorned llkoly that tho policy ot supplying tho Uowery drama to west tldors was olug to provo a good enterprise in n buslnossway.

About two years ago it was tried at a Thalia matinoo. and it was thon llketlx) well that a purchasor was tound. It Is acted at tho Windsor with consid erable care, but it cannot be pralsod ory high ly. Its story is conventional. Its pictures aro not new. and it dialogue is nolther especially erisp nor affective. The hero, a cowboy on a visit to New York, is impeisonntod quite com mendably by Joseph 8.

Her participation in "Blue .leans" lias been valuable, it in admitted, bho thinks she will tako a rest during the summon. Tho e term of " Incog " at the Bijou will ond next week, but that is not a sure sign that Dickson nnd his fun makdrs will dopart from tho city, it Is understood that thoy may remain In tnv;n to play at another theatre If time can be hociued forthom. At the German play houfos tho week has bean Interesting, If uot notable. Kmll Thomas, 1wbouppi-uredln"Der Kunst-Ilnclllus" at the Amboiglast night i.nd for several pi ecodlug evenings, will to-night cwuo forward In n nov elty."Der Million bauer." At thnThnlia that jolly ami portly singer and comedienne, Mnthllde Cottrolly, has neon warmlylKrcutod bjrmanyold ndinlrore in the farcical plei e called "Eine Lelchto l'orson." This play affords lo tho Htar nn opportunity for singing, pathos, und humor by turns. Mis. Cottrolly 1h Mill a captivating uctioss. and hor popularity with the east side public has apparently not diminished. Harlom's playgoers have had their first view of "MlhSllolyotfaiidof " Elgin Hells" this vcok. at tho Opora House and tho Columbus, lespoctlvuly.

ThoQuukeress is not quito tho sober irarbed creature that sho was during, her long f career In Broadway. Tho fashionable taste of t Louise Loslle-Cartor appears to have tri f umphed somowhat over her nbfoluto lldelity to the Parisian oiiglnal of Hrlv'tt. for hIio has J discarded the drab, crown and scoop bonnot. fl or has ut least roodltiod tlipin greatly In color X nndshujie. to the groat lraproemontof her J looks. The change turns her Into n loss inonotonous and more captivating llg"r. btoady lmnrooiiient is to be noted in thw actress. Tho Columbus's audiences havo been mniised with "liltfht llolls." which, for all Its surdity us a play. Is satisfy iib in a provoker oflaughtor. The Byrno bro hers aro In ex cellont form just now. and those who assist them In their nornbatlo and, pantomimic of. I fort "are gonerally brisk and competent per JL formers.

Her present support Is somewhat feeble, nut when MldsOrar plays "East Lynno" perhaps tho east side nas ears and eyes tor no other in the drama. At Nlblo'a there Is current a rather showy, but not adequate, re vival of Charles Alfred Erne's and Oustavij Kerker's comlo opera. "The Pearl of Poltln." "In Its earlier production nt tho Broadway Bijou thoro was no excuse to quetlqn tho art istic merit of this gny and rather witty work; but several seaon8 of hardships encountered on the road have loft their marks upon ino Pearl of Tekln." nnd It has come back to town In a Bomowr.at dlsorganlred condition, ino eait II alterod. and not always for the bettor: but It Is a pleaeuro to hear again the merry voloo of Irono Verona, who Is Tht fey h and It Is no less a treat to view tho nntlos ot Ldward Chapman, who Is tho principal comedian. The tenor rnlo of Pttit Pierre was sung by Wallace Wodloy. although tho programme ; as signed tlio part to Edward Webb, who Is III In an Ohio hospital. The chorus, the co'tumes. nnd the scenery In the present rouval are qultogood. "Tuxedo" was revived at the Now Tark Theatro on Monday evening with now fea tures, one being a trnveBtyof "The Country ClreusT' In tho form of baby, circus wagons about the sla.i of soap boxes, drnwn with ex traordinary display of muscular effort by va rious members ot the company. One wagon contained a pig. another abkro terrier, a third a matronly old hen. and a fourth adlgnll oil tabby. But the most startling interpolation wasacakowalk under the direction of rolo Jim. tho managor ot a similar exhibition on a much larger scalo lately given at the Madison Square Oardon. Tho contestants at the Park art W. H. Proctor. Luke Bbickburn. and Dandy Jack, with their bollos. The men are attired in faultlessly correct evening dress, while two of tho ladles appeared in welMlttliig black silk gowns and the third In white. , Aftor a brief speech by Polo Jim the walk be gins with stately grace and diRnltled carrlngo. Ed Marble acts as referoo nnd declares tho llrst heat a draw, wherounon tho walkorn are recalled and tlio contest begun nnew. This time. howoor. the relerce reachos a decision and awards tho cake. Luko Blackburn and his partner got It on Monday night. Mr. Blackburn bore the huge trophy from the stnge so lightly poised upon thn palm ot his loft hand thnt many in the audience reversod their Judgmont and de clared the cako to be a croatlon of the property man. However, the cako walk Is a convulsive sucoess and will no doubt draw many to see It. The "Trip to the Moon." at Music Hall, has caught on with tho public since tho repre sentation has boon romodolled. and Oarrott P. Serviss has taken the Imaginary voyagers of celestial space In ohargo. The audiences are rapidly Increasing In size and enthusiasm. A Sou Wreath for Teaor ileum De Kestke. The farewell porformnnco of " Faust" nt the Metropolitan Opera Houso yostorday after noon was made noteworthy by tho presenta tion to Joan De lloszke of a BUperb crown of laurol leaves fasblonod ot gold. It was passed to the tenor ovorj tho foot lights upon a satin cushion, at tho close ot the duot with Miss Eamos In the garden sceno and tho gift wns hulled with an outburst of popular enthusiasm that surpassed any of the greottngs yet extended to the star singor. Tho wreath was engraved with the tenor's name, and attached to It was an envel ope containing tho card of the glvor. It was said at tho opera house that the donor was a wom an. The tenor himself resisted all appeals to reveal the Idontity of the giver. Tho cast was the same that made previous renditions of tho work memorable, with the slnglo ex ception of tho substitution of Mile. Do Olgne In the rOle of Siebel, previously assumed by Mmo. Hcalchl. Tho encores woro so numerous that tho performance was pro longed far beyond the usual hour. "La Honnambula" was sung last ovenlng. with Mmo. Van Zar.dt as Armina, and an au dience that was also appreciative to the point of enthusiasm obtained a marked degree of enjoyment from the spirited performance. Mme. Van Zandt waa often called before tho curtain, and some beautiful tlowcrs wore pre sented to her. Hignor Olanlnl was Ainno. and Mllo. Klein. Klgnor Herbollcl, Hignor Ulnaldlnl. nnd Mile. Bauormelster were associated with him in tho cast. Tho statomont was repeated at the Opera House last night that Impresario Abbey will havo tlio nouse next season for a further pro duction of grand opera in Italian and French. Tho decision of tho stockholders will be reached next woo, and It is said that It will not tako them lone to make up tholr minds lu favor ot leasing the house to Mr. Abbey. SHE WAS XOT HEALED. Nevertheless Mn. Chnrch Die Blessing the Name or the I-ord. Mrs. Charles Churoh. the boltever In faith cure, otherwise known as divine healing, who died at her home in Passaic on Monday last of a canoer. was buried yesterday from the Ht George Methodist Church, in thai city. Tho death of Mrs. Church Is regarded as a blow to the divine healing theory, for it is confessed that greater faith had no woman than Mrs. Church, nnd sho had all her life combined hor faith with works. No woman was better known in PasBaio for hor charity, her gocd works, and hor many other vlrtueo than Sirs. Church. She was a woman of intelligence, and. it Is agrood. ot sound common sense, until she acquired faith In latter-day mlrlc'.os. Mrs. Church was 48 years old. Sho was born In Chennngo county. N. Y. Sixteen yoars ago elm went to Tassalc with hor husband. Dr. Charles A. Church, a homoeopathic physician, and said to be somethinz of a religious on thuslust, Sho became a member of the Meth odist church, a teachor In tho Sunday schsol. was Dromlncnt In tho Ladles' Aid and Ladies' Missionary Societies, and in tho Woman's Clirlstfaa Temperance Union, tho Union Be nevolent Society, and the Monday Aftornoon Club. Those are just a few of the church so cieties to which sho belongod. Sho first came to believe In divine healing six yoars ago. Her husband had pneumonia. Tholr son. Dr. Church. Jr.. tells this story: "The disease kopt growing worse untii it de veloped Into gnlloping consumption. He tried all sorts of remedios, but nonoof thorn worked, lie wont to six of the best homoeopaths in this State, but thoy all agreod that there was no hopo for him. Ills lungs were almost solid and we alt gavo him up. Then fatbor and mother becamo acquainted with dlvlno heal ing. 1 imnit u was turougu iruirio ui mt. uut I'mnotsuie. Thoy looked ltupln the Bllilo and believed In it And from that day ho be gan to heal rapidly until ho was ablo to take up his practice again, aud now no as strong and healthy u you or I. What, did tho other physicians say? Oh. thuy dldn t say nnyth ng. What could thoy say? Of course, fathor laid bin recovery to divine healing, and ho bas be hoved In it over slncu." Mrs. Church was llrst tnkon sick three yoars ngo. Sho hud n caucor In hor breast She prayed with faith that It would bo healed, but It was not, and sho turned to her Bible and road: "Is any among you afflicted let him pray, lsanyslckumongyou lethlm call for tho elders of tho church; and let them pray ovor him. anointing him with oil in thenamo of tlio Urd: and tho prayer of faith shall savo the sick, and tho Lord shall raise hm up." So sho called In tho pastor nnd tho elders of hor church. Their faith was not equal to tho iniunotion. Thny told her that the days of mlniclos had passed; that Christ hud per formed miracles merely to show Ills power at the time Ho was disbelieved. Mrs. Church dis missed these mon. It Is, relnlod. with prayers that their fnlth should bo strengthened and tholr unbelief should bo driven away. And then sho cunio to Nuvv Wk und visited tho ltev. Mr. Simpson's college und dlvlno hoallng institute in Eighth .avenue. Thoro she was nnnolntod with oil in tho name of tho Lord, and she thought sho was cured, but hor dlsoajo continued. Mrs. Church always assorted that this anointing took away Irom her tho pain sho had suffered. Whllushogrow worse sliu continually said sho had no pain. Her faith did not wane, but she was compolled to toko to her bod. nnd she never rose from It strong in hor faith as she was. It was her husband's custom to kneel dally by her bedside and pray for berrecovery. bho spent her time reading her Bible and pon dering on what she road. Hho would not take medicine, bho would not pormlt an oporatlon to bo performed, and she pruvod for more fulth for all those who told her sho was foolish to llo thore and die without mnklng un offort to save herself. She waschoerful In hor suffer inc. LnH Saturday morning the Kev. John Crnwford, tho pastor of her churoh. and tho ltev. Mr. Von Harchwltz called on her. Thoy pnw that her end was near und they told her so. Sheanxwered: ..,,,. , " I have faith that tho Lord will keep nis promise But tho Lord's will bo dono. Blessed is the name of tlio Lord." , . .. She became partially unconscious shortly nfterward. She did not ereak again. Her nurso noticed a troubled breathing on Mon day. She oalled Dr. Church, but before ho reuohod the bedside the sufferor v;os dead. . From 30U to 5U) persons attended the funeral yesterday aftornoon. All but a few wcro women. The servlco was conducted by the llov. John Crawford. Thero.was but ono ref. erenoo in It to tho faith that hastoned her death. The preacher spoko of tho simplicity of hor hollo!

The cab waa driven Into tho yard of the Cen tral Court Mrs. Osborne was takon.into the prisoners' waiting room, hor husband by special permission being still with hor.

They soemod nqrvous and almost us much distressed as tho prisoner herself. Capt. Osborne sat in the well of tho court facing tho Jury. Justico Smith preoldod. Mrs. Osborno was dressed in blapk. Bho looked terribly wan and worn, and sobbed convulsively. She was in a pondltlon of soml collapse. She glanced at lior husband, who held up his hands toward hor In abesoocblng manner. Tho Indictment was read amid breathless sllonce. and Cleric Avery said: " Prisoner at the bar. do you pload guilty or not guilty?" . . .. Mrs. Osborne's voice was almost nnlnaudl blewhispor os sho answered. ' Oullty. Mr. Forrest Fulton then addrossod tho Court In bohalf of tho Government . Tho. chnrgo of larceny, ho said, might woll havo bconieitto private prosocutlon. but It was lmposslblo to overlook porjury. With these words ho would leave tho caso In his lordship's hands. Sir Charles liussoll followed in behalf of the prisoner. Ho said that those best ocaualntod with the prisoner wore sure that sho had beon suffering from temporary aberration ot mind. Slnco tho truth cnine to light tho nrlsonor bad dono everything in hor power to repair the mischief, and had made a voluntary surren der to justice Cant. Osborne, her husband, hud written to tho Treasury, asking that the prisoner's trlnl might be delayed until after the prisoner's confinement To this tlio Treasury had refusod to aeoede. Ho lioppd the Court would tako Into consideration the prisoner's condition. . . Mrs. Hnrgroaves bore aroso nnd sold in an agitated voice: " May I speak ?" Tho Judge Only on the appenl for mercy. Mrs. Hargroavcs proceodeu between sobs: "I appeal for morcy with all my heart I hnvo known nnd loved Ethel nil mr life, and nm convlncod that she was not In her right mind." . . . . Then Mrs. Hargreavos sat down, weeping almost hysterically. The Judge, in passing sentence said:, , , "Florence Ethel Osborne, you havo pleaded cutlty to larceny and perjury. You stole your frlond's jewels while stopping at her house, and converted the proooeds of the theft to your own uso. When tho llngor of suspicion pointed toward you as the thief, you com menced an nctlon to vindicate your character. You were guilty of swearing folsoly and cor ruptly In order to convince the jury that you were not tho thief, and you sat still Instruct ing eminent counsel to the effect that your friends wore the thieves. It would nave been impossible to forecast the result of the action but for tho appearance of an unexpected wit ness, and possibly the Hargroaveti might have been forever stained with Ignominy. His lordship then sentenced Mrs. Osborne to nine months' hard labor, which was to be such as the prison doctor would allow. The prisoner had to be carried from court ABEII.LE AKD HIS PAXAMOVB.

Naval OMeers Here Isellaed to Think UmI, Hetherlsfflea Waa Inttiae. George Orover Robinson, whom Lieut 3. W. Hetherlngton. U. B. N., klllod on Feb. 12 for his attentions to Mrs. Hetherlngton, was a business man ot excellent standing In Yoko hama, and also one of tho leaders of the foreign society, Holwent to Yokohama several rears axo 'rom England, and becamo cashier of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank. As soon as he had made a sufflotent acquaintance he reslgnod from the bank and opened an office as an exohnnge broker, i aVaM'K Jfj9vfm. ' Mrs. snsrc nawis mnriERrNiTo-. He paid a good deal ot attention to his busi ness, but did not let It interfere with his very exacting social duties. Ho had a handsome fig ure, and his face was much admired by women deoptto the fact that he waxed his moustache. Ho know how to ride, and In tho llttlo racos got up by tho foreign sot he always rode In a tightly fitting jookoy eostume,and carried no end of boxes of candy and pairs ot gloves upon his skill. Thore were a good many men who did not like him bocause the women liked him so welL These men said ho smiled too much. Yokohoma and Shanghai are the two ports In tho China station which naval officers are fond ot visiting. As Yokohama Is tho princi pal port of Japan, thoro Is always at loast ono war vessel from each of tho naval powors anchored In Its doop and beautiful harbor. As the climato of Yokohama Ib delightful, and as living is ohean. tho wlvos of naval officer of all oountties mako it tholr home when their husbands are on vessels cruising In tho China station. Tho presence of the naval officers nnd their wives makes tho large foreign colony very cay. and any officer in tho United States Navy will toll how much he liked Yokohama. If he has been there, or if he has not, how much he would like to be ordored thore. .Vi? . VUhi B) MB. OOWEIt ROBrNSON. It seems that Llout Hetherlngton. who Is an Iowa appointee but n few years out of tho Naval Academy, was ordered on hia present cruise in May of last year. Ho had got his promotion to a Lioutennnoy of tho junior grade in Sep tember of 18)i). and had been married u short time afterward, so it is said. Mrs. Hetherlng ton cannot havo been In Yokahama much longer than since last fall, and the flirtation with Mr. ltoblnson is of very recent date. From tho story in the despatches of Mrs. Ad miral Belknap s rocognlzingnnd advising Mrs. Hetherlngton since the shooting, and of Mrs. Hotherlngton's being Invited to a dinner in Yokahama. it may beiuforrod that Yokahamu society puU upon Mr. ltoblnson alone tho blnmo for tho tender lettors in his handwriting which Lieut Hetherlngton found, and accuses Mrs. Hetherlngton of nothing more than youtntul folly. None of the naval officers here ts acquainted with the Hethorlngtons, and none of them was willing to express an opinion of the affair for publication with his name. But tho sentiment was that If Lieut Hothorington acted upon the advlco ot his brother officers, be must have had good ground for summarily putting an end to Robinson. It appears that Mrs. Hether lngton was a very beautiful as well as a very foolish person, and that she had llttlo sonse ot where the line should be drawn by a married woman In receiving attentions from a bachelor. "Even It sho didn't havo tho senso." said a naval officer yesterday, "tho man ltoblnson must havo known. And when he set down in his own handwriting his lovo for a married woman and addressod it to her. he took his life into his hands. I think that Llout Hctliorlngton showed great forbear ance. The man persisted In trying to compro ralso Mrs. Hetherlngton. and Llout Ilethor Ington. as hor protector, could not In honor longer refrain from ondlng Itoblnson's caroer. He was probably one ot that type of bachelors found everywhere, always poaching, and novor happy unloss en dangering the good namo ot some marrlod woman and the domestic happiness ot two per sons. I think that a woll-dlrectod bullet or sword-thrust is tho only cure for such a per son. Llout. Hotherlngton did his plain and simple duty ns an ofllcor ot tho United States Navy. HIb was conduct most besoming an officer and a gontloman." AS AUSTRIAN -PRINCE WANTS A WirE, Girts, ir Yon Are Twenty and Have A.OO,. OOO, Apply to Henry Barna, Gentleman.

Remove ofa New tavestlsatlea of aa Ola Charge. It Is likely that within a short time an Inves tigation will be begun by tho oity Into the management by William A. Conkltn ot the zo ological oolloctlon In Central Park. For nearly two years all sorts ot rumors have been rlfo concerning tho conduct of this cherished city department and a year ago last summer an offort was mado to have It submitted to a rigid examination. In August, 1890. tho Com missioners of Accounts Investigated the de partment, and the Mayor wroto a vory long lottor to tho Pnfk Board inviting tholr atten tion to tho Commissioners' report On the following day tho report was mado public It was rumorod that tho report had boen toned down, and that speoiflo chnrgos had boen moderatod. According to tho re port, a horse, buggy, and harness pickod up in tho Pnrk in 1887 woro reported to be In use by Superintendent Conklln, no efforts having been made to find the owner; tho shoeD account showed a shortage of six sheop. and in the account ot "short " or miss ing animals nppearod Ithroo monkoys. an ngoutl. four boars, acoatlmundi, awoodchuck. eovou raccoons, six foxes, lone clvit oat two Kerry cattle, ono fallow doer, ono mongoose, and sov on 'possums. Tho report addod: "This zoological collec tion and its management is. in our opinion, largoty run In personal Interest" Tho roport said that of $'JB,281 spent for additions to tho fol lections. $14.H88 was for animals bought ot 'rank J. Thompson, of whom tho Commis sioners said: "HIh headquarters appoared to bo at tho Arsonal. Central Park. and. although ho np- fioarod by his billheads to havo boon the agent n this country of Charles Uagenbeck of Ham burg, he appears to havo no recognition In the trado. "By Inquiry at tho Custom House we learned that tho animals shlppod to this port by Hng onbock and consigned to otthor Thomuson or O' Duffy are taken direct from the ship to Cen tral Park, and are entered at tho Custom Houso as If lntondod for breeding purposes there, and as a conseouenco aro admlttod froo of duty, while. In fact, but a small porcontage are Intended for or ever purchasod by tho city, the breeding purpose and exhibition at the Park being mado a subterfugo In many in stances to got thorn entered froo of duty." From thai tlmo the matter slept but recent ly it has beon ngltatod again. It Is known that it will get to the Mayor in an official way be fore long, if it has not already done so. Mr. Conklln was told of the now movo against blm last hisht This Is the old story." he said. "So far as It oharges me with using my place In the Park In any lmpropor manner, or for tho purpose of making money In illegitimate ways. It is false. I novor had any partnership or Interest with olther Mr. Thompson or with Mr. Haganbaoh of Ham burg. I ha- bought animals for tho park of both of thorn. Nobody could have bought nny African animals at llrst hands without doing business with thorn, for thoy control the market "Thompson usod to spend a great doal of his time with me In my offioo In the Arsenal building, but that was tho extent of our per sonal relations. Ho wont out ot business threo years ago and loft this city. All tlio ani mals that came to the Park paid duty oxcopt those that woro Importod for breeding Surposop. Those wero exompt by law. either Is it truo that I have rented out ani mals that wero kept in tho Park. Animals that dlil not belong to the city hove been kept In the Park, but all tho facts regarding them were publicly known. "I havo beon thirty-throe years in tho Park. It looks as If somebody was aftor my scalp." WHO WILL GET JEROME PARKT auttenharg 'Wants the Track, but Monl mouth lias First Hay. It was learned last night from an authorita tive source that tho North nudson County Joekoy Club, whoso raoe track is at Gutton burg, has boen negotiating for the loasoof Je rome Park, with the intention ot racing there during tho coming season in opposition to ono or moro of the tracks governed by the Board of Control. Tho Monmouth Park Racing Association has boon driven from Its own track near Long Branch, nnd last year decldod Its stakes over tho Jeromo Park nnd Morris Park tracks, hav ing lonsed tho course ot tho American Jockey Club for ono year.

Coney Island nnd New York Jockey Club, each club yielding sufficient dates by courtesy to enublo tholr His-tor organizations to run off tholr stakes. Tho Monmouth Pnrk folks practical ly acknowledge that thoro is no hopo for legislation this yoar. tho disgraceful Btnto of affulrw brought about by Quttonburg hu made racing In Now Jersey a mockery, nnd now thnt tho Outtenburgors propose to carry tho war. into the. territory con trollod by the Hoard of Control: the offrontory of tho hilltop folks Is ooncoiled ns being boyond precedent They control tho Saratoga course and racing folks with the good of the turf at heart may woll ask, " What W.

Tho gulls aro too wary to bo approached with in shooting distance unless strategy Is used, ond until Thursday thoy baffled all attempts to drive them nvjay. On Wednesday night, however.

For years the tracks ot tho Contral road In Bide tho city limits havo been asourcoof vox atlon and Inconvenience.

It the railroad company shall be unablo to agree with tho owners and persons lntorosted in said real property as to the amount of such damages, tho somo shall be ascertained by the provisions ot the Condem nation law." Mr. Charles W. Dayton, as the representa tive of tho proporty ownors In Harlom. brlofly presented tho elovatod causeway or viaduct plan which Is supportod In Harlem. It pro poses to do away with tho plan of the bill which would closo cortaln streotB by continuing tho presont system of partially sunken tracks and to substitute a viaduct much llko an elova tod railway structure, which shall begin at tho mouth of the tunnel and run by nn easy grado up to Harlom bridge as It Is to bo olevatod. This will tako tho present Central and Harlem tracks out ot tho tunnels and outs they now run In and eorry them over and abovo the present surface lines, and thus allow all stroots to pusb freely underneath. According to Mr. Dayton, tlio plan would open olght or nine streets now blocked nnd close none. The bill passed ns it was, ho said, would destroy property values in and about I'ark avonue, and cause tho abandonment of the 1 25th street station, since tho grudo would bo too heavy to permit trains to stop.
