M. C. A. management will give In the association hall every evening next week tbe "Crary tours illustrated." These popular Illustrated pictorial travel talks are the record of visits to the principal points of interests in Europe and America and have been accorded the highest praises of tbe press in other cities. The lectures open Monday evenlna, the initial lecture that evening being free to all, and the public is Invited to tile advantage the opportunity.

Mrs. Crary adds to the talks the charm of personal experience while Dr. Crary illustrates each tour with one hundred and fifty large views. Complimentary tickets for Monday evening can be had at tbe association building or from the members. The company engaged by Manager Snelllng this season to support the popular actress, Maud Hiilman, nho will appear all next week, at the York opera house, playing at popular prices.

Is composed of tbe best artists obtainable, and Is he strongest and best company, ever io Miss Hlllman's support. Jere McAuliffe, the popular singing comedian, wh" n-peartd here last year at the bead of his on company, is playing tbe prn- pal comedy roles. Jere Donovan, Is the ieod-Ing man, the others are, Helen Frost, one of the best character actresses on the stage, and formerly in support of Bouci-cault. The plays to be presented, have been secured at a considerable royalty, and many of them have never before been seen at cheap prices. The company carry a car-load of special scenery, and stage each play given, in a mariner worthy of higher prices.

John Mason and Marion Manola are always sure of a hearty welcome and a crowded bouse whenever they visit here, and tbe mere announcement that tbey re to appear here this evening at the York opera house, under the auspices of the Young Men's Democratic society, in their best and strongest plav, "Friend Fritz," will be all that Is necessary to bring out their lesion of friends and admirers. "Friend Fritz" is not a new play. It has been seen bere before with Mr. and Mrs. Mason in the leading roles, it is a play of which one does not tire.

There is a delicious fragrance of violets and new mown hay about it, and a pretty little love story that appeals to tbe heart of everyone. "All the world loves a lover," it is said, and certainly our theatre goers love the lovers in this pretty pastoral almost idyllic play. As now produced "Friend Fritz" takes on a more pastoral tone than it has bltherto done All of the scenery is new and handsome, and the costumes more quaint and picturesque than ever. "Jack" Mason is as jolly a bachelor and as vigorous and tender a lover as of yore. He sings his songs with spirit, and is said to be as uiirtb-urovokiog by his quiet humor as ever.

Mrs. Mason is said to impersonate Suzel with all of her old time daintiuess and spirit, and to look tbe picture of health aud youth. Those who remember her recitations of "Rebecca at the Well" in tbe second act can never forget her cbarming manner ar tbe demureness aud naivette which s'e so cleverly intermingles in her talk with tbe rabbi concerning the application of tbe biblical A List of the Prominent Visitors to the City.

A List of tbe Ten Republicans Who. rVlll Vote With the Democrats Ait Apportionment Bill Being Prepared To Be Used as a Punishment lor Congressional Interference. Columbus, Ohio, Jan.

6. Conservative estimates tonight place the legislative vote at seventy-five to seventy against Hanna. The Hanna men, however, claim seventy-one votes and assurances of tbn necessary two additional votes and possibly four more. The opposition insists that Hanna will never have seventy votes on joint ballot and that they have gained two votes slrco the legislature adjourned over till Mm day. Before the chairmanships and other patronage are disposed of, tbe opposition say that Hanna's vote will be reduced considerably below seventy, which is three short of enough to elect.

The opposition to Hanna consists of the sixty-five Democratle members and tbe following ten Republican members: Representatives Harry C. Mason and M. F. Bramley.ol Cuyahoga; J. P.

Jonfs. of Stark; John E. Griffith, of Union; J. C. Otis, of Hamilton: William O.

Scott, of Fulton; Henry H. Redkav, of Highland; D. O. Rutan, of Carroll and Harrison, James Manuel, of Montgomery; Senator V. H.

Burke, of Cleveland. Included in the list of those supporting Hanna are Representatives Droste and Lane, silver Republican fusionlsts from Cincinnati, who are counted on for Jeptha, Gerrard. The developments today Indicated that Gerrard would not only be voted for on the ballots for senator, but he might lead on the first ballot if the present efforts to make him the free silver Republican candidate are successful. Gerrard is one of the wealtbitst men In Cincinnati and has always been a radical silver man. So far, tbe opposition to Hanna is not only holding its men well in line, but it has executed all the plans provided for previous to tbe caucuses on last Saturday.

The opposition managers say that they are having no trouble holding their men out against Hanna, but admit their difficulty in finding any candidate for whom all the "boiling" Republicans and the Democrat members will vote. The bolting Republicans are unanimous in declaring they cannot vote for any Democrat for senator. Enough Democrat members to give the managers trouble and anxiety say tbey do not want to vote for a Republican for senator. Tbe opposition has prepared a bill to reapportion the congressional districts. Tbis is intended as a blow at the Republican congressmen who are working for Hanna.

AMONG THE ALDERMAN. Augustus Helms and Agnes Smith, the Elopers, Arraigned. The principals in the now somewhat sensational elopement case, Augustus Heimsand Agnes Smith, (nee Edwards), were given a hearing before Alderman May yesterday morning on two charges, adultery and bigamy, preferred by Mrs. Speece, motLer of tbe wronged Mrs. Helms.

The alderman's office was crowded with anxious spectators and the hearing was an interestingone. A large number of witnesses were examined and their evidence fully sustained the charge of adultery, but on tbe charge of bigamy tho evidence was insufficient and the case was discharged. In default of bail both defendants were committed to jail on tho former charge. Daniel Bell, charged with assault and battery on oath of Matilda Henderson, was given a bearing before Alderman May yesterday. The alderman held the case under advisement.

Alderman May held a wedding at high noon in his office yesterday. He nnited in the holy bonds Robert Dorsey and Hester Richardson, both co'ored, of this city. Martha Henderson charged with carry-concealed deadly weapons on oath of Daniel Bell, was given a hearing before Alderman Philip H. Amig last After the alderman bad heard a number of witnesses he beld tbe case under advisement until 7 o'clock tomorrow evening. Detective William Axe, made the arrest onWednetday.

Mr. Kendig was the first fancier in this city to fly these wonderful little creatures. He has been a member of the York club for tbe past two years and has been twice elected as treasurer of the club Tb fanciers at large will regret to learn of Mr. Kendig's intentions, as he is well known by all the fanciers aud is considered quite an authority on the homing sport. The new organization, tbe National association of American Homirg Pigeon Fanciers, has quite a number of signers and it will, no doubt, be tbe strongest fis ing club In the city this season as sorre of the best rivers in the city have already joined tbe organization.

The Keystone club, of Wrightsville. at a recent meeting elected Jobn Hersh as a member of tbe club. As tbe club has limited its membership to ten and the club is already composed of that number, there will be no more proposals accepted. There are stitl a number of fanciers in tbe town who are not in any club. The club has elected F.

C. Bucher as race secretary and Gara Burns as assistant race secre tary to serve for the coming year.

H. lietz, YorK, and J. R. Brodbeck, Jefferson. It will be noticed that the program contains no common disease, such as pneumonia, typhoid, diphtheria, etc.

It was thonght by the committee that such diseases will come up for discussion whether ordered or not, and it was thought best to put on a number of diseases that would not as likely be discussed in the ordinary coarse of events. This was thought to be a good Idea by the society. The next report presented was that by Dr. Betz, chairman of the board of censors. There was some discussion on the matters presented in this report because of the application of a number of physicians who are not strictly eligible to membership.

The name of Drs. Francis Snyder, of Jacobus, and W. C. Smith, of Airville, were presented and voted upon and both gentlemen were elected. The applications of several other gentlemen were on motion held over tir.til the next meeting.
