Death of Edwin Forrest.

The news that Forrest is dead produced
Yesterday numerous regrets that none of
us should look again upon this actors pro
totypes Of life. He was one of the Ameri-
can type, and though he made muscle go a
great ways in his combinations, still no one
could accuse him of being without the skill
that comes from cultivation and hard study.
In the death of Edwin Forrest one of the
great lights of the American stage is for
ever extinguished, and rising actors have
lost living model. De was not man who
can pass away without beng missed from
the wintry galaxy of stars Edwin Forrest
dead recalls more "reminiscences than For.
rest alive. He was a man who had outlived
his day and generation, and his acting had.
years ago, looked strange to the majority Of
the houses that waited on him and sat out
his performances. His. passion was al
ways a storm, a fury, whirlwind
which tore up everything by
the roots, and hence in The still water plays
he failed, There never was but one living
Lear. and he was Forrest. Here his acting
made the hair stand on end until positive
relief was felt when the act closed In all
of these stage beings whose passion is in
tempest-those of the Hotspur kind, the
dead actor made his mark, and there are
not a few who believe ne was great in all
characters

us. highly enjoyable Mrs. James A, Oates

E,mestia,e than in the various characters we
have seen her essay. Her bright, crisp
viyacious manner, and spirited voealization'
assist her in the creation of an artistic em-
bodiment of the musical and romantic
schoolgirl. Mr. Charles Drew is familiar
to us in his talented impersonation OF BG5y-
los, his voice and physique being admirably
adapted to the requirements OF the oharae-
fer. Mr. John Howson's Mons. Cbougtettr',
Who is "at home" was a refreshing piece
Of originality. He was certainly '.at home
in the character as he is in all his Imperson-
atoms. The local hits he INDUCED in we're

APPOINTING A SUPERINTENDENT and
around the City Hall it is stated that the
Council intends to dlsplace Mr.. Weeks, su-
perintendent of the fire alarm and police
telegraph, and install young man who
was once dismissed from that department
for incompetency. There is little fear that
the Administrators will attempt to remove
Mr.. Weeks, at least not until the Board Of
Police Commissioners is abolished, as that
body would intervene and back up its in
tervention with something harder than a
stocking of mush. The Office spoken of is
directly under the charge of the Metropoh-

Two HUMAN WAIFs.-Sergeant Isabelle
Yesterday morning found the bodies of two
children in vacant lot corner Of Prytania
and Clio streets. They were apparently
twins, one male and one female, wrapped
together in cloths. One was dead, probably
dying from exposure to the cold. Ihey

Mother and father are unknown, but
Coroner Creagh will make au effort to
ferret out the unnatural parents. He did
not complete his inquest. The live babe
was sent to the St. Vincent Infant Asylum,
and may possibly recover. The case is so
perfectly covered in mystery that it is
doubtful if the guilty parties will be
brought to justice. Could the particulars
be gathered and printed, Mrs. Grundy
would find mine Of scandal that would
keep her spiteful tongue wagging until

There is q general complaint that times
are duh and money scarce, and in this con
dtion of things many people rake together
all the money they can get, borrow little
more and buy lottery ticket that wins
That was the way small boy did the other
dav, when he borrowed five cents to add to
the twenty cents he already had, and with
it bought twenty five cent ticket, which
drew prize of $3.50. Tomorrow is to be the
GRAND drawing Of the single number tickets
in She Gousiana State Lottery. Dc ~ill
take place at eleven O'Clock in the morning,
over the rooms of the company. Somebody
who buys single number ticket for twenty
dollars runs the risk of drawing the capital
prize OF 6fty thousand dollars. WhoeTer
that lucky individual may be. no enc can
now divine. But it is certain that he will
be more fortunate than the bogus members
o: the Cts Hall Legislature, who will no'
even draw their mileage from that conceFn.
If you ara going 60 buy % lottery ticket
select "ne that viii draw q capital prize

VALUABLE LOTTERY TIcKET.-A few days
ago little Sam Davis felt the spirit on him to
purchase a lottery ticket no uUugro ono
in a Second District agency, but having
only twenty cents borrowed five cents
from William Burke. The ticket drew $780,
and by some means Burke had possession
of the precious paper, Learning that it
drew prize Burke kept the ticket, and
last evening was arrested for stealing the
same.
