i W omen of New Jersey and Pennsylvania Imagination balks at the magnitude of $2,000,000. Only when it is translated into terms of purchasing power does it become comprehensible. Two million dollars, for example, will support more than 2000 families of moderate income for a year. Two million dollars will buy more than 200,000 barrels of flour, more than 50,000 sewing machines or 80,000 suits. It will give work for an entire year to 2000 men and women engaged in various productive industries and other occupations that add to the common ^ welfare of the people in all walks of life. It is $2,000,000 a year that the Full Crew— "excess ^ man crew " — Laws compel the railroads of your States to pay in unearned wages. These laws deprive you of improvements for safety and comfort in travel that this money, now used unproductively, would provide. How much longer in these times when economy is a universal necessity are you willing to endure this gy tremendous waste ? In the end the cost bears upon you, either in increased rates or decreased service. . Wil1 y°u use your influence in urging that the ny people's elected Representatives at Trenton and Harrisburg work and vote for repeai of the Full Crew Laws L an(I place control of the proper manning of trains in the hands of the Public Service Commissioners ? »N p ^ ANIEL WILLARD, THEODORE VOORHEES, " President, Philadelphia and Reading Railway.

WALNUT STREET THEATRE When all is said and done, Thurston is "the" magician of this generation, and general opinion has it that be " stands alone among magicians. This celebrated artist will appear at the Walnut Street Theatre on March 29th, matinees Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, with a company of twenty-six people and two car loads of effects. Here is a Yankee boy beginning his career in a small town in Ohio, going to a public school, doing simple little tricks with cards, coins and a high hat for the mystification of the neighbors, carrying the idea further and evolving it all into an art, making money, making friends and making people laugh and wonder. If ever a man captured the world and used it for his own amusement and profit, it is Thurston. Herrman, the magician, was a great u man in his day. Kellar ministered to thousands, made a big fortune and retired from the business in honor of Thurston, and Thurston is still at it, playing today to capacity audiences every where. If we should make Thurston king of America, and send him around the world as a sampre or our goods, just } to advertise the United States, he would outstrip any lion hunter who ever used smokeless powder. Kings, anyway, are today for social purposes, but their use has always been to astonish by their magnificence and astound : by their prowess. If Thurston were to : l wear all the decorations that have 1 been giveu him by the monarclis of the ' world it would increase his weight con- : siderably. Thurston has the personal 1 grace, the handsome face, the athletic body, the beaming eyes, the gracious, well-modulated voice, the hands that ! talk, the brain that thinks, the will that ■ reinforces all, flavored by love into a 1 consummate whole. The assertion is made that never 1 smee Noah came out of the ark have so 1 many new and mysterious things been 1 presented in a single performance. The 1 charm of newness applies to the entire ' program. The scope of the Thurston operations is indicated by the titles of his mysteries, the more notable of which are "The New Woman," "Animated • Sketches," "The Evolution of the Ne- : "Aerial Fishing," "Noah's Vision." ' Balaam and His Donkey,'' "The Choc- 1 i olate Soldier" and "Creation." Here. v surely, is material enough to satisfv the most insatiable appetite for the hidden '! things of this world, and all served in " the appetizing Thurston way. '■ Censure Farmer for Woods Fire. Millville. N. J., Maivn 24.— Fire war- u dens charge that Moses Williams a " Fairfield township farmer, is resp'onsible for the forest fire which swept -l: over a large tract of timber land last ■' week and burned 75 cords of ranked wood. The wardens claim that a brush ■»: fire escaped him. Williams denies the » charge and is^ being given a chance to »

CASINO THEATRE Bigger and better than ever, with a wealth of beautiful scenery and pretty girls, a laugh to every minute, comes the "Dreamlands" to the popular Casino Theatre next week. It's the surest bet you know that it will be the best liked entertainment housed at the Casino Theatre this season. One of the greatest laugh surveyors of the burlesque stage is Andy Lewis, who is commander in chief of the army of comedians engaged to make the "Dreamlands' " offering the most acceptable "fun fest" you ever attended. Among those selected as eliief aids are George S. Skipper and the famous "Alpine Four," the sweetest singers in burlesque. The feminine contingent is led by that queen of prima donnas, Miss Inez De Verdier. Miss Vera George, a sprightly chit of humanity, called a soubrette, will sing and dance herself right into your very heart. Last, but not least, a chorus of genuine beauties, gowned at the cost of a modest fortune. The real essence of good burlesque being girls, there will be girls a plenty in "Dreamland." Special attraction Friday evening will be those old time amateurs. TR0CADER0 THEATRE One of the biggest weeks of the season will be when the Big Sensation Company comes to town, to the Troeadero. week of March 29. There will be many special features. One is a big dance sensation, when Yaumah will present a new dance, entitled "The Danse La Passionate," which lias been one of the big sensations in New York last week. On Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursdav another big feature for these days is a real old-fashioned Southern prize cake walk, one of the latest crazes and a genuine treat. This cake walk will be performed by ten people, who are genuine Southern dancers, and will be seen in this city for the first time. It's jusi like a night on the levee, with its old melodies, etc. Then there is the Big Sensation Company, which is one of the greatest shows that was seen ai this house this seasou. Everything that goes to make a show a success has been lone. No money lias , been spared t< nake this the "Big Sensation," the eader,. which others copy and follow All bright and original ideas, no worn nit features, no flash promises, ever) feature announced will positively ap pear. The ' Big Sensation'' is the mosi varied, popular, talked-of show on tin road. For the past year the owners Have had agents touring the country foi novelties, and it is safe to sav the) iiave succeeded in securing more fea Hires than ever in any two similar or ,-amzations. The wardrobe and Keener ilone cost a small fortune, to say notli iig of the other expenses, when yon ake into consideration the vast amoun if money expended on a mus.cal com jany, to organize and equip, and ti nake it a success, it requires the nervi ■ ind will-power of men who will risi, i heir all to give the theatre-going pubih i in attraction that is worthy of the pu , ronage of the public. Tile chorus giri.ire pretty, talented and sweet-voiced. 1 nd the musical extravaganzas intro '• ■ I e

. duced. The curtain-raiser is entitled ! "Palm Beach." and the closing burlesque is called "Hotel De Luxe," and " both of these serve as a vehicle in which a a host of prominent fun-makers, both ® male and female, display their ability ° to the best advantage. The cast is t headed by the little nightingale, Lydia Q Jospy, and the famous Brianza Trio. 0 | In the supporting end will be found e Smith and Champion, Chas.

March 24.— Miss Winifred de i —The AlmoneaSOn Lake Fire Company _ is raising funds to purchase an auto chemical engine. ' Mercier, of Camden, has received a check for $196 for services rendered the • State Board of Dental Examiners. Miss 5 de Mercier made ,nume furore about not • being paid by Hie State, and has said • that she was In distress. Dr. John C. ' Forsyth, treasurer of the Board, said payment was delayed because an audit J of the books was being made. I ' WAGES GF RAILROAD MEN t Excess Trainman Gets Higliei : Pay Than Most Other Employes. Altoona, Pa., March 17. c Railroad employes in various branches of the service are giving close attention to the relative compensation of men in the different services as compared to the trainmen. I ~ With few exceptions, the average pay r of the brakemen, of whom about one i In ten has a job only because he is |j forced upon the railroads by the Full H Crew — "Excess Man Crew"— Laws, Is | higher than that of brother-employes. I Some actual figures covering the 1 Pennsylvania Railroad Company pay ! roll for the year ended June 30 last I show a total of $101,892,355 paid to 110,686 officers and other employes. | That made a daily average of $2,82. 1 The average daily pay of the train- I man was $3.40. | The only classes of employes aver I aging higher pay than trainmen, of 1 whom there were 10,419, were officers. I enginemen, conductors, firemen and 1 machinists. Station agents averaged ■ $3.01 per day; other station men. § $2.18; carpenters, $3.03; shopmen. L other than machinists, $2.70; section foremen, $2.50; other track men. $1.77; telegraph operators and dispatchers, $2.59; switch tenders and watchmen, $2.02, and office clerks $2.83. ' da Of the total wage distribution by ua the Pennsylvania Railroad Company during the period, the trainmen, other than engineers, firemen and conductors, received $10,704,430. Among engineers, firemen and conductors, the opinion is almost universally express """ sd in private that there is no occasion for the extra men put on passen- rj ger and freight trains by the Full Crew Law and" that it should be re pealed in the best interests, not only of the public and the railroads, but of the whole body of railroad em ployes. j
