Lydia

Never has the Academy been SO crowded
as during the last week. The revival of
the burlesgue seems to have made de-
cided hit in New Orleans, and every even
ing our citizenS flock there by the hundred,
and by eight O'Clock nothing but standing
room can be had. The attraction for the
week has been Blue Beard This will
be withdrawn and tonight the ''Nymph of
the Lurleburge" will have its place upon the
boards. Miss Lydia Thompson "a Sir
Rupert, Harry Beckett as .Se.eschat, and
Willie Edouin as ITacerlet, promise "a fine
treat.
This piece is burlesque upon the old
spectacular of the .'Naiad Queen which
was produced at most every theatre in this
country. Lydia, seeing chance TO make
a good burlesque, had the piece rewritten,
and now it is one of the best in her
repertoire Incidental to the piece will be
presented the great moral ballet, SO that
the taste of none can be offended: even the
most delicate and sensitive mind can gaze
upon it without the slightest feeling OF
shame.

The Gallant CAPTAIN.

New Orleans is blessed with many jolly
men-men who will do to tie to for life
time-and one among the foremost can
be found presiding at the Orleans
House, corner of St. Charles and Common
streets-Captain Gus Richards-he who,
last summer, made so many pleasant voy-
ages down to Grand Isle, on the passenger
steamer San Nicolas. Many fire companies
remember him happily, for he made their
excursions as delightful as possible, and the
boys remember him. for they smile at linn
often in the Orleans House. He an active
member of an up town company, and can
be seen beneath a blood-red shirt when an
alarm of fire is sounded 1t must not he
forgotten that he will be prepared to make
excursions to Grand Isle next summer,
where he will have an ice house in the surf.
and, perhaps, take the head of the hotel
table. Whether in hotel, saloon, or on a
boat, he is right jolly companion

Tyler Rifles Ball.

The Tyler Rifles celebrated their second
annual ball last evening at Odd Fellows
Hall. Never was Odd Fellows Hall so
filed with the elite of New Orleans as it
was last evening. From nine O'Clock until
twelve did it seem like fairyland was loose.
Masks, dominos, monks, Bohemian girls,
flower girls, daughters CT the regiment,
fitted through the room or were whirled in
the giddy mazes of dance. At twelve
O'Clock precisely the masks were removed,
and of course the denounment come. This
was really the most successful ball that has
been held this season. When the assembly
broke up at the I'VE sma' hours of the
MORN" they departed with the feeling that
the Tyler Rifle ball was the most pleasant
of the season.

Dan Rice's Circus.

This evening this celebrated circus will
open at Congo square for the especial bene-
fit of the citizens OF New Orleans.
1t is hardly necessary to say much Of Dan
Rice. He has been known so long to the
circus going public that to say anything new
would simply be an impossibility. Ever
since he was ushered into this world of woe
he has been associated with circus. His
name is byword in every family as the cri-
terion for circuses. Men and women VINO
have lived in this town since they were chill
dren, who learned to lisp the name Of Dan
Rice, remember him now as " old Dan Rice. y
His witty, humorous sayings have been
passed from lip to lip, from tongue to
tongue. Men have praised him, women
have clapped their little hands by way OF
attesting their appreciation. Men have
written about him, vocalists have sung
about him, poets have made rhymes about
him, get he lived through it all, and is to-
day ready and willing to amus4 the people
Ever SO many times he has determined
to leave the ring and settle down to quiet
lite, but just SO many times has his resolu
ton failed, and he has entered the arena
and it is said by many persons that he will
live and die in the ring
He loves a horse. So much does he love a
horse that he has been offered 800, 900 fol
his famous bind horse, Excelsior, Jr., but
he repeatedly refused this offer, and Elk
celsior still remains with him.
He is exceedingly choice in the selection
of performers. He has ransacked the diff
ferent foreign countries for the very bes
talent that it could produce, and to-day
this company is the most superior one il
existence.
Among them may be mentioned Bill.
Morgan, one of the most daring hurdle
riders in the world, who is without al
equal Professor Nelson and his two chill
| dren perform the most astonishing feat
that can be imagined. He takes his tw'
children and throws both of them in the al
| at one time, and catches and throws then
up so rapidly that it is almost impossible t.
see their motions. Lorenzo Moya, tn
| greatest trick clown in the world, is als'
with this troupe, and number of other
who deserve mention.
The company will remain there but thre
days.

Lolita.

Notwithstanding the inclemency OF the
weather, tn St. Charles was well filled
every night last week. Lolita in her
specialties was too charming for the
weather to have any effect upon her audi
ences.
This evening she appears in Fire Fly
one of the most brilliant pieces in her role.
This piece was written for her especially,
and no other actress has ever attempted it.
Of course she is the heroine of the piece.
She assumes the character of the Daughter
of the Regiment, and her lover is con
demned to be shot. While the soldiers are
about to shoot she PUSHES in before him
and receives the entire volley in her own
dear precious body, thus sacrificing herself
for her lover. The play is one that can not
fail to interest the auditor, and we advise
every one to witness it.
Tomorrow evening the new play OF
Rainbow" will be produced for the first
time in this city.

A Defenseof the Present School Admin.
istrati0n.
New ORLEANS, January 26.
EDITOR REPUBLICAN:
As there has been considerable clamor,
Of late on the part Of the Democratic jour
nails in this city and State for the repeal Of
what they are pleased to term the "obnox-
ious educational law" and, as have heard
no good reasons advanced in support OF this
rather cheeky demand, permit me, through
your columns, to state certain facts which,
in my humble judgment, are sufficiently
plain to convince all unprecedented readers
that this law, en- which Is based the great
work of education, should not be repealed.
Under the very wise and economical
administration of Superintendent L. w.
Conway, there have been constructed III
nearly every parish throughout the State
from two to three substantial and cOmmo-
dious buildings for school purposes, at
uSuTcS sur pIlSluSly SHC"p' Son"AuSAAhs, eAo
present high prices of building material and
mechanical labor. These houses will ac-
commodate from one hundred to one hun
dred and fifty children each. Now, aver
aging two school-houses to each parish
there have been built about one hundred
school houses in the State during the past
wear, and each with seating capacity Of,
say, $50, thus offering the opportunities Of
education to $1,000 children, who would
otherwise grow up in besotted ignorance,
and remain reprOach to the State forever.
But this is not all that has been achieved
| by the administration of Mr.. Conway, for,
besides the outlay attending the construc-
| ton of school houses, he has maintained in
| constant operation from ten to twenty
| schools in each parish of the State, which
have been attended daily by large numbers
of children, amounting in the aggregate to
2OO, 200, of both sexes.
While it cannot he denied that it requires
some outlay of money to keep these schools
open all the wear, it must be borne in mind
| that the services of worthy and
competent teachers like those employed I'M
der Mr.. Conway's administration cannot be
obtained for mere pittance; neither can
suitable houses, in closely settled districts,
be rented at the very lowest of figures.
| Now, Mr.. Editor, taking these facts into
consideration, am fully convinced there
are many good and sound reasons why the
present school system should remain in ex
istence until better one is suggested.
Political opponents and personal enemies
of Mr.. Conway have taken sort of ma
lciOus pleasure in slandering his admins
tration of school matters, and maligninG
his personal reputation. but these shafts fal
ever short of the mark aimed at.
Mr.. Conway is preparing for himself &
noble record in the future history of Lonisi
ana, and the children who are now being
educated under the auspices Of his wise adj
ministration will, as they grow up to man
hood and womanhood, bless his name every
day of their lives for the energy and in
domitable spirit he displays in the cause
of education. j. W. II.

Widows and Orphans Funds.

New YORK, January 2i.-Conklin, the
secretary of the Market Savings Bank, is
reported to have disappeared. on account of
his dread of arrest for his misnlanagement
and ruin of the bank. He was prominent
member of the Young Mems Christian
Union, and heretofore stood very high.
The banks affairs look worse and worse.
1t is feared that it will not pay over twenty
five cents ON the dollar. 1t has been re-
parded as one of the safest concerns for
savings in the city, and had a large amount
of widows and orphans funds. Its suspen
sion has greatly shaken confidence in all
the savings banks here, and it is believed
that runs will be made on many more and
that suspensions must take place. There is
much danger OF a panic among the savings
depositors.

The FlsheFUPn.

A Washington special to the Louisville
Co,uier-Journal says:
The opposition to the fishery legislation
under the treaty is gaining ground steady.
Considerable doubt is now expressed as to
the possibility Of the House acting on ii
favorably The Democratic members of
the Foreign Affairs Committee are united in
their opposition, and the Republicans are
divided. The impression is that were ii
not for the absence Of Mr.. Robinson, who is
at home attending sick member of his
family, the legislation would meet its death
blow in the committee room. The fisher,
men are not alone in their opposition to the
effects Of the treaty, but it is understood
other interests are greatly opposed to the
provisions. General Banks will bring a
measure before the House inside of ten days
and ask for immediate action.

Speaking of the opening political cam
paign in Connecticut, a correspondent to
the New York Tribune says:
The Democratic leaders thought it would
be a fine thing to give out that Mr.. English
would positively withdraw, as in that case
the old fight could not be fought now, and
lhey hoped that Governor Jewell would re-
tire and new man be brought forward.
Then they were ready to put the exGoy-
ernor again in 1.-THE hands of his friends,
nominate him by reclamation, and make a
great no vi through the State that Governor
Jewell had got frightened. 1t was very
snug little arrangement, but hasn't worked.
Governor Jewell will be re-nominated, and
as this leads to result not expected by the
Democrats. they are forced 20 run English
again, or put themselves in a dilemma, and
English himself don't like the looks OF It,
With the advantage OF Jewell out OF the
way. and with loud alarming cry, he hoped
to make a point; but with Jewell III the
way, ''the hands of his friends are more
than full, and the load they've got to carry
| is bv no means an inviting one.
