Miss Ella Wren appeared at the st.
Charles Theatre last night as dramatist and
actress. The Cogswell company played
from her pen a sensational drama called
"In the Dark" The audience was too thin
to render verdict, but the piece appeared
as having good points in it. The play will
be repeated again tonight.
The dramatic season at the Academy of
Music commenced on Sunday night, with
Baker and Farrcn in q protean drama
called conrad and Lizette." The play is
not unlike others in which these clever per-
formers have sung and DANCED for the
amusement of the New Orleans public.
There is in it the Dutchman and the old
Dutch woman who comes to the rescue of
the young woman, the German girl and the
eccentric Irishman, the villain and his
scottish tool, abductions, tableaux, the con-
cert scene, the rescue, villainy foiled, lovers
happy, and all that. The piece is one not
calculated to bring out the strength of the
new dramatic company. Miss Louie Lord,
the leading lady, has good stage appear
ance; she reads well, and good work is ex-
pected of her in the future. Miss Emma
Palmer, who comes as first old woman, was
known for many years as Mrs. Skerrett in the
excellent Boston Museum Company. She is
reliable actress, who has been trained in
the best school of comedy, and has always
been noted for her fine stage wardrobe. In
Mr.. George F. Ketchum, Mr.. Bidwell has
one of the most eccentric of eccentric
comedians. Mr.. Ketchum was also schooled
at the Museum, under W. H. Smith and
Warren. His face is his fortune. He is not
hadsome man, but he has an India rub
Der countenance and face for all charac-
ters. He is Burton, Davidge, Harry
Beckett, Dan Msguinnees, George L. Fox,
or any other muggins man you please, and
he is as funny as man can be and live.
Ketohum has not much to do as Rrocn, an
insurance agent, in the new play, but he
captures the piece in the last act. The
usual matinee performance will be given
to- morrow.

Recent events would seem to indicate
that the great St. Louis bridge, from which
the people expected 80 much in the way of
breaking down monopOlies oppressive to ST.
Louis and the people Of the entire West, is
not only itself one of the most grinding mo-
nopolles with which this country is cursed,
but is in league with other monopolies in
depressing the people.
This fact is made apparant by the recent
action Of the bridge company in refusing to
allow the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph
Company to cross the bridge with their
wires. This telegraph company, which pro-
poses to compete with the Western Union,
and thus offer to the people increased facil-
tiles and better telegraphio rates, has
already extended it's lines from New York
to San Francisco by the way of Chicago
and connecting with all the principal cities
of the Union except St. LOUIS. We should
long ago have had this new line but for
some hocus pocus between the bridge conl-
pany and the Western Union, through
which the Atlantic and Pacific have been
prevented from bringing their line across
the bridge.
After many fruitless attempts to reach an
understanding with the bridge monOpOlists,
the new company yesterday morning, be-
lieving themselves in the right, crossed the
bridge with their wires and connected with
st. Louis. Yesterday evening the bridge
monopolists tore down the wires and left
St. Louish again to the mercy of the West
ern Union.
This favoritism shown by the Bridge
Company to q powerful monopoly is in
keeping with the management which has
branded the company itself as seltish, grasp
ing, short sighted and reckless of the inter
ests Of the people. We shall present at
another time the facts and figures which
will place the management Of this shame
less bridge monopoly properly before the
people, who, fortunately, have . way Of
escape offered them in tho recent action Of
