The Templeton Troupe drew another good
house at the Academy last evening, Wnen the
indescribable burlesque aud pantonime OF
Humpty- -Dumpty was brought out. The vocal
portion OF the burlesque: was varied by several
local hits, which, elclted the rapturous ap'
plause of the audience. The psntomime went
off as usual, the main feature being the first
appearance of Mile. Josephine, whose gooa
looks wrought more in her iavor than,her act
Ing. The Leon Brothers made their celebrat-
ed leap at the beginning Of the performance,
and went through series Of gymnastic feats
at dizzy height, which threatened to be a
source of profit to the coroner. The perform
ance Is to be repeated this evening.
CHANCE FOR THE CHILDREN!
It Is long time since the Academy has been
filed with the joyous faces OF delighted
throng of children. This afternoon, however,
Humpty Dumpty will be given at matinee,

ROASTED TO A CRISP.

From the Pittsburg Commercial. Feb. 12.l
Last evening, about eight O'Clock, q
sad discovery was made In tho base
ment room Of the tenement No. Is
Twentieth street. The upper part OF
the house Is occupied BY n German
carpenter named John Frenke, who
sub-let the basement, a miserable room
about fifteen feet under ground, to a
poor German woman named Annie
Loppert, but better known.in the VI
cinity as ''Old Aunty." The latter
had supported herself by taking In
washing. Between seven and eight
o'clock last evening, her reputed hus-
band, who Is employed at the Atlas
works In q minor position, called az
the collar for the purpose Of leaving
some clothes which he desired should
be washed, and, as had been his Gus
tom, to give her a little money. He
Knocked at the door Of her apartment
several times, but received no reply.
he then visited the upper portion OF
the house, and asked Mr.. Frenke what
had become of ''Old Aunty." Mr.. F.
said that che must b In her room, as
she mover went out much on Sundays.
The two then went down stairs, and
with an AZ opened the window which
was In the upper portion Of the door.
Through this window n Of the men
crawled, and the door, which was fast
ened with a nail, was opened. A light
was procured, and 4 search discovered
tho charred remains of "Old Aunty "
In q sitting position near a table. and
not q great distance from the fireplace.
Tho knees almost touched the chin,
while the neck was bent downward as
TO hide the face from view. On the
head was left a little piece of a night
cap. while . few gray hairs, which had
escaped the flames, were curled over
the blackened forehead. On n of her
knees there was a little piece Of her
night dress unframed, but that was
all.
The corpse presented a most sicken-
Ing appearance, while the surroundings
lent to the scene an air of dosolation,
want and misery such rs few would
believe existed In the city. On q table
near the bed stood a candls-stick, in
which was . piece of charred pine
wood, which had evidently furnished
light for the unfortunate woman to
dress by. A more wretched, miserable
abode for a human being than this
cellar cannot be imagined.
From the neighbors 1t Is learned that
the deceased was about e~ighty-ive
years of age ; that she was addicted to
drink, and that she had been seen by
a Mrs. Hendly on Saturday in an in
toxicated condition. The grim picture
presented last night tells the rest.
It Is supposed that the deceased,
| while under the influence Of liquor,
had crept toward tho fire for the pur-
pose of warming herself, and that she
had fallen therein, with tho result
| noted,

THE woRxrNaMFN.

That the substantial and continued
prosperity of this country or any other
/. dependent very largely upon those
whose daily toll beneath or upon the
earth's surface, no sensible mar will
pretend to deny. In this section the
mining interest Is paramount to all
others, and good, practical, expert
enced miners readily find steady en-
ployment at good wages-bstter wages
than the average Of the world pays.
From the earliest history of the Com.
stock. and especially Of late years, the
miners have always been sure Of their
pay when the regular monthly pay
day came around, this very desirable
arrangement being assured BY capital
invested and employed in the working
Of the great lode. Thus has capital
and labor worked advantageously to-
gether, and with direct mutual benefit.
And thus should these two great inter-
ests and necessities be combined and
90 hand in hand together, working
ever aud faithfully to mutual advan-
tage. The worklngmen OF the coun-
try should look to their political as
we'll as social and financial Interests,
and take an active part In the election
Of both rulers and representatives. In
the choice Of the right mon to repre-
sent the people in the halls OF Con.
gress, the utmost judlclous vigilance
should be- exercised, and labor should
see we'll to 1t that only those who will
properly represent Its interests as we'll
as the true interests Of the nation at
largo are allowed to 80 there. The
workingmen are beginning to perceive
that their substantial interests do not
lie with the Democracy, but more with
the Republican party. Thus 1t Is that
they have of late deserted the ranks OF
the old fossllized unprogresslve politt-
cal organization, as rats leave a sink
ing ship, and many, not caring to 60
boldly over to Republicanism, have
formed the Labor Reform party. This,
however is not enough by any means.
That party does not fully represent or
comprehend the true interests Of the
workingmen, a may be seen BY their
nomination Of Judge Davis for tho
Presidency, although subsequently
having the good n to repudtate
him when they found out his real prin-
ciples. That party is like Davis. a do
lusion, and the laborlng classes, the
producers Of the country as far as this
section Is concerned, so perceive
and appreciate 1t. Here they will
combine with the Republicans, not
In any "passive." "possum," or other
humbug political policy, but will send
a good square Republican to the Sem
ate, elected by their votes on the he
publican ticket. It Is possible that a
Democrat may step In and win through
some, at present, unforeseen emergency
of combined political disagreement,
Yet this is not at all probable. The
prospects of the Democracy are indeed
at a double discount, and as we
said before, the Republican party
will triumph, and a man will be
sent to the United States Senate who
will we'll and truly represent not
merely local interests, but that Of the
various counties and the State at large,
including both property holders, work,
ingmen and capital.
