A, / /^K The city of Pittsburg is to have the greatest, grandest, and best romantic Historical scenic drama ever yet pro duced For several weeks a small tinny of car[>enters, scene painters, cos turners and artists have been actively employed for the grand production of the drama "Cyrano de Berge rac". The play is now having a phe noiutaally suci-essful run in Paris, Ix>n don. New York and Boston, and will be presented at the Grand next week jin all its stupendous magnitude | Nover in the history of Pittsburg has j *wb a gigantic production been placed upon the stage. The presentation of the gnat play brings into action over three hnodred people There are sixty eight s|M4»king parts in the cast, and in some of the scenes over two hundred jieople on the stage at. one time The amount of scenery is astonishingly I largo. Iri fact the magnitude of the great production will astonish the old est thie.it,re goers For instance, a stage and thoatre inside of a theatre is a scene never before witnessed. The play of 'Cyrano de Bergerac" requires not only a complete stage with scenery on the stage, but tiers of private boxes arranged one above the other. The I audience expresses its approval or rather its disapproval, so forcibly that the actors are told they are "no goo<l . and driven off at the jioint fir the sword This scene alone in the Mansfield pro | duction, it is said i*>st $12.000.

Mr. Biker pur chased the Dougherty property lately and and moved there from Pittsburg. Marklet on Sanatorium. Mr. James M Swank, the widely known writer and authority on iron and steel statistics, gives an interesting de scription in the John-town Tribune of Markleton and the sanatorium there, from which we make tne following ex tracts: I ha%*e just spent a week at this place, cn the Pittsburg division of the Balti more & Ohio railroad. ninety-four miles east of Pittsburgh, seeking and finding absolute rest at the Markleton Sanato rium. 1 write this letter partly to call the attention of the readers of tne Trib aue to the pure and dry air. abundant sunshine pure mountain water, ami oeautiful scenery of Markleton, and to the comfortable, homelike, and every way satisfactory features of the Sana torium. The Markleton Sanatorium was es tablished in 1892 and furnished with all the appliances for the treatment of nervous and tired-out patients rheu matic sufferers. convalescents from attacks of tever, etc.. but not for the treatment ot contagious or infectious diseases. As a matter of tact there are never very many really sick persons at tne Sanatorium, anil these .ire of course i ton fined to their rooms and are never seen by the other guests in a whole week I have not heard the hollow of one consumptive, although • here are nearly one hundred gne.st.s uere at the close of the summer season The Sanatorium is open the whole year, .nd this is one of its good features, •lauy, perhaps the laruest number, of the guests who come to Markleton come simply for rest and recreation. Markleton is situated in the extreme southwestern part of Somerset county, on the beautiful Casselman river, and 11(H) feet above tidewater Its hiifh elevation and its southern situ ation, combined with its complete pro tectipn by surrounding mountain ran *tes from northwestern and other cut ting winds, give to it a particularly salubrious and pleasant climate There is no malaria at Markleton, and the fog which sometimes rises at is speedily dissipated in the morning. rJyen when rain falls the sun makes its appearance the same day. This is iny second visit to Markleton, and I am impressed with the conviction that there is not a more healthful location in Pennsylvania. *fhe management of the Sanatorium is liberal and, as I have said, home like. The utmost freedom of action is accorded to guests except that late uours and alcoholic drinks are both prohibited. The rowdy element, which takes possession of so many summer resorts, is never found at the Sanatori um, or at Markleton. There are no naloons here. The rooms and halls of the Sanatorium are and well lighted. The building is heated with not water, but there are also grates in /he halls and 111 many of the rooms Artificial light is supplied by au elec trie plant. The Sanatorium was established by a comnauy of enterprising gentlemen, residents of Mount Pleasant. Councils ville, McKeesport, and Pittsburg, r'rom the beginning the Kev. Dr John >1 Harnett, of the Redstone Presbj tery . has lieeti the Company's Resi •lent Secretary and the Chaplain of the Sanatorium, while his accomplished daughter is the Resident Manager of the institution. Dr. lv <) Grossman is the Medical Director He has an assist ant Dr. Miller—and also a female assistant —Dr Potter Religious service in a neat little chapel with beautiful stained-glass windows, which forms a part of the Sanitoriuni building, are held every morning after breakfast, ittendance upon which is, of course, optional, and on Sunday Dr Harnett preaches in the morning and evening, there being no other regular preaching at Markleton The railroad facilities for reaching Markleton are excellent Several pas sender trains from both the east and the west stop at Markleton every day The distance from Johnstown by the B &O to Rock wood, and thence by the Somerset Branch, is in all fifty three miles The Sanatorium is con venient to the Railroad station, and there is at the station an express office, telegraph office, and postoflice Two mail* are received daily from the east and two from the west Notice in Partition. rutlkr County, ss.
