THE HUNTINGTON CRIME-A SUGGESTION.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
Is it not probable that the respectable parties
who planned the punishment Of Kelsey procured
the assistance oil outsiders to do their dirty work
while they, the respectable parties, appeared
merely as spectatorsf II occurs to me that there
was one more act in the drama than the authors
contempated-G e., the death OF Kelsey. Possibly
they were not aware OF the danger attending the
mutation, and did not realize 1t until the death OF
their victim revealed 1t to them. Some such ex-
PLANTATION is requisite In view OF all the facts. The
above theory reconclles much tnat Is otherwise
mysterious. SUBSCRIBER

union square Fneotres
An exceedingly clever performance OF "wilkins
Micawber" was given last evening at the Union
Square Theatre. Mr.. George FawcettsRowe, after
an absence OF five months, reappeared In the title
role Mr. Mackay acted Uriah Heap and Mrs. Will
kins took the part of Betsey Trotwood The PALM
OF course. belongs to Mr. Rowe and Mr.. Mackay (;
bat Mrs. wilkins gave very energetic and a very
English delineatiOn OF Betsey. Mr.. Rowe has abb
sorbed all the humor Of Mr. Dickens caricature,
and has only occasionally spoiled it by adding q
few unwarranted burlesque touches. Among
these are the dilapdated pocket handkerchief, the
COat-tail scene at the end OF the second act, and
MIR. Micawbers prayer over the bending bodies Of
mis- children in the third. The actor was peculiarly
felictous In preserving Mr.. Micawber's air of in
tense enjoyment in the enunciation OF sonorous
sentences and the recollection OF old mtseres.
Mr.. Mackay's Interpretation of Heap belongs
among the finest efforts OF stock actors that the
New York stage has seen for years. 1t Is unique
as it Is powerful close study and successful re-
production, one OF the few impersOnatiOns Of the
day that may be seen repeatedly without weari-
someness and remembered long with enjoyment.
''Wilkins Micawber'' was succeeded by the Bellies
Of the Kitchen" wherein the vokes family APP
peared. The same attractive bill will be retained
throughout the week.

A SAD CONDITION.

A very touching case of mental al
ienation in charming young lady is
described by careful observer. Not
long ago her mother found her in her
room energetically darning stockings,
and soon after she appeared in the
kitchen and assisted that wondering
dame in making and baking bread and
pastry. Alarmed by these fearful
signs of intellectual disorder, her fond
parents Immediately sent for a skill
full physician, who watched her
through a keyhole while she sewed
buttons on her fathers garments and
mended those of her little brother
Much affected, the venerable man re-
marked that never during medical
practice of twenty-five years had he
known any young man remarked that
person to manifest such symptoms as
these. The most heart-rending phase
of all, however, was shown the other
day, when her kind father, with
faint hope of rousing her from her sad
state, gave her two hundred dollars
and told her to buy a new dress. Alas
twas useless. She instantly observed
that she didn't need new dress, and
if he would let her keep twenty-five
dollars to pay poor widows rent,
she'd much rather he would take the
rest OF the money for himself. For
moment that grief stricken old gen.
tleman gazed upon his hapless child,
then hiding his face muttered between
his sobs, "Her mind is gone! Her
mind is gone! ra.

The NEW York Observer ridicules
the idea that where the ages of the
patriarchs of the Bible are mentioned
in years, months are meant instead, as
for instance, when the Hebrew chro-
nOloger stated the life of Methusaleh
to be 969 years, and of Jared 962, he
meant that many months. The Oh
server goes into figures on the snbject
as follows:
"Adam lived a hundred and thirty
months and beget sou. Seth lived
hundred and five months, and begat
Enos. Enos lived ninety months and
begat Cainan. Cainan lived seventy
months and begat Michael. And
Enoch lived sixty-five months and
begat MethusIleh. And all the days
of Methusaleh were nine hundred and
sixty-nine months, and he died and
so on. Truly wonderful race of be-
ingsI AT the age of l30 months,
which is little more than 10 years,
Adam begat his first born, Seth; and
at the age of 105 months, little less
than nine yOars, Seth begat Enos;
and at ninety months, or less than
eight years, Enos begat Cainan and
Cainan begat his first-born at seventy
months, which is less than six years
And this is a satisfactory solution! 1t
is historical and scientific mending
with a vengeance
