FEAST FOR THE POOR.
Big Dinner Given by the Salvation Army
at Madison Square Garden.

that the money spent in Christmas
gifts this year in New York was more
than ever before and the same is true
regarding charitable gifts. It was
only because a case of destitution was
kept hidden that " the unfortunates
were not supplied with Christmas
cheer. Of all the set Christmas feasts
that of the Salvation Army at Madi
son Square Garden last evening was
the largest. A bountiful Christmas
dinner was served to about 4,000 per
sons, men, women and children. The
cost was defrayed from a fund of
about $8,000 collected by the army
chiefly through the kettles, which for
several weeks have hung from tripods
In various parts of the city to receive
contributions to 'keep the Christmas
pot boiling."

At the Farmele Theatre January 1.
The new comedy success, "Miss
Hobbs," which has been received with
open arms, both io London andJew
York, will have its first presentation
in this city at tho Parmele next Tues
day, January 1, matinee and evening.
The story dealswith the family tiffs
of the Kingsearls, a young couple but
six months married, and with the in
terference of a certain Miss Hobbs,
who turns out to ba a man-hater. Mrs.
Kingsearl leaves her husband and
lives with Miss Hobbs, as does Miss
Milhcont Farcy, her friend, who has
broken off her engagement with
George Jessop, who Miss Hobbs de
scribes ss a typical man. Miss Hobbs,
visiting the Kingsearle home to ob
tain some clothes for the young wife,
meets a man who she supposes to be
the husband Percival Kingsearl, but
who really is Wolff Kingsearl, a name
sake and fcrmer college classmate of
Percival. To show Mrs. Kingsearl
the perfidy of man. Miss Hobbs invites
this man to visit her the next day, pre
tending at the time to be a lady's
maid. Prior to this Percival has
offered to let Wolff that he cancot
kiss Miss Ilobb within a month and
Wolff, after this interview, accepts the
offer. The wager is noted in a note
book, which Wolff loses ard Miss
Hobbs finds. She imagines she has
conclusive proof of tho unfaithfulness
of Mrs. Kiogsearl's husband and con
trives to bring about a denouement
wherein Wolff is revealed to Mrs.
Kingsearl and Miss Farey at Miss
Hobbs' feet on his knees. The balance
of the play treats of the shy surrender
of Miss Hobbs to Wolff's wooing and
the unraveling of the complication.
