A s,ar,l,ng Rumor


The steamship Tennessee with the San
Domingo Embassy are out three weeks
now, and are over due atSamana some ten
days. There has been an impression that
their arrival would be telegraphed per
Cuban cable, but such may not have been
the understanding, and they may he all
safe in the happy land Of Hayti. Chi
cago was startled yesterday by special
from Washington reporting the fouadering
of the Tennessee with all ON board, Ben
Wade and Fred Douglass included; but
inquiries at the Navy Department dissi-
pated the sensation. -a-rr-rr 4. r
The Davenport HrOthers Last Night
We have witnessed the performance OF
the ''Davenports" have many humid
reds of other citizens Masonic Hall was
crowded. The Davenport Brothers have
gained worldwide celebrity, In their
mysterious role, and il is not to be wonder
ed at. We don't believe in ghosts, spirit
manifestations nor anything of that sort,
yet no telling what we might believe If we
visited the Davenports Just one more time.
The performance commenced at season
able hour, and the audience chose b.
Lanier and Hugh Douglas as Especial COM
mittee to investigate the proceedings as
they transpired, and many other of our
citizens visited the stage and made
thorough examination. The various cabi-
net scenes were wonderful in the extreme,
but the closing dark scenes, on the open
stage, were actually awe-laden, and none
Of the vast assemblage present even ven
TIRED an assertion as to causes in the mys-
FERROUS proceedings, for it was as much as
any sane man could do 10 note the effect.
The most searching science seems thus far
to have failed to reach the causes in the
performance of the Davenport Brothers,
and all we can say is, that no one should
miss seeing them while the opportunity
offers, as we understand this Is their final
tour through this country. We propose
to-day, however, to take occasion to inter
view Professors Douglas and Lanier, as to
what they saw and felt, and if We succeed
in spriDgiDg a crevice we shall not fail to
enhghten our readers.
