AsfusEMENTS.

mr.. LAWRENCE BARRETT AS KING LEAR.
Tie FIRST appearance of Mr. Lawrence Barrett in
such character King Lear" naturally attracted
large audience Booths Theatre last night and there
was deep interest taken in his personation That Mr.
Barrett should tail was, Of course, an mpossibility
The degree OF his Is easily to be deter
mined He made popular success and was called out
at the end Of each act and has TO be any
thing but fattered by tho result.
In estimating this performance 1t is just to rcmem-
Der that tho character is new to Mr. Barrett II is
which tho confident actor might we'll ap
proach with doubt for it admits OF no compromise
II must either be great inadequate. Even Hamlet
is played Mr. Barrett rnquestionaby disclosed
intellectual understanding OF Lear but he failed
fully express his ideas. There too much Of the
'very FOOLISH fond old man" In the conception and
too little OF the dignty of the monarch. The great
passages where Lear resumes his majesty, and towers
tor instant far above his misfortunes, not
cved III their natural pendor against tho dark back
ground OF his miseres The over. r.feeblencss
OF the manner interlered with the effect
and seemed to weaken the situations and
thus 10 partly justify the rcproaches of
his ungratcfui daughters In dcIicacy Mr. Barrett
was more successful than IN power. Yet many OF the
strong passages splendidly delivered as for in
stance the celebrated curse and the scene with
Rcgan and Goneri in the second and those OF tho
Storm Altogether this new Lear must be regarded
an intellectual and important acquisition to tho
modern stage, poor In such performances and that
Mr. Barrett Will add by practice 10 Its merit not TO
be questioned
Mr. Davenport was superb Edgar. and his mad
scene Is Inc best remember. An excellent persona
tion OF Kent was given by Mr. William f. Sheridan.
and Gostcr we'll acted by Mr. Henry Weaver.
Cornwall was also cxcelleny performed by Mr.. h. h.
Collier II Mr.. Wardo could moderate
his voice and elocution, ms Edmund, he
would greatly improve bold but exaggerated
sketch OF Edmund. Mr. William seymour
made clever fool, and did not bnrlesquc the part.
The Cordea OF Miss Stella Boniiace was pleasing hut
the other ladies lacked the heartcssness which
Regan and Goneril should possess. The scenery was
very inc throughout, ana the storm especially
effective The thunder and lightning were almost
tremendous as a regular storm.

Biographical Sketches OF the RepubE.
can Candidates.
RUTHERFORD b. HAYES,


the Republican candidate for President,
now Governor of Ohio, is a native of
that State, born at Delaware, October
4, 1922. He graduated AT Kenyon Col
lege, Gambler, Ohio, and obtained his
professional education at Cambridge
Law School. He began the practice of
his profession at Cincinnati, in his
thirty-fourth year. and was elected City
solicitor in 1858, his first official posi-
ton, which he held till the war broke
out in 1861. Very near its opening he
enlisted in the Twenty-third Ohio Vol
unteers, and served with the regiment
till he received the command of a
brigade in 1864. His first appointment
was as Major; his first promotion
came within less tfnn a year, ana in
September of 1862 he held a commits
sion as colonel, and was in
command of his regiment, which he led
into the battle Of South Mountain. Dur
ing the action Colonel Hayes was
wounded, but it is said his command
a the first TO establish a position at
South Mountain. Two years later he
became a Brigadier-General, and then
he received the Republican nomina-
ton for Congress in the Second Ohio
District and was elected 10y a large ma
jority. In the fall of 1866 MIR. Hayes
was a second time Nominated for Con-
gress, and was elected by a somewhat
smaller majority than two years before.
The Fortieth Congress had. however,
held but one session when Mr.. Hayes
was nominated rs Governor by the Re-
publican party, and was elected over
Allen G.. Thurman by a majority Of p
9s3 in a total vote Of 49,, 200. He was
renominated for Governor, and again
elected by a majority Of 1913. Last
fall he was again nominated for Gov
ernor against William Allen, and was
elected by a majority of 5,544 in a total
vote Of $50, 090.

Five Children Burned TO Death.

A dreadful calamity, says the Windsor
(Ont.) Record, took place near Stony
Point on Wednesday night. The dwell
ing-house of Frank Malloux, a farmer,
took fire and five of his children perish
ed in the flames. The family consisted
of Mr.. and Mrs. Malloux, and seven chill
dren, the eldestof whom was a daughter,
II, and the youngest a boy between
four and FIVE. The latter slept with his
parents, and was the first TO discover
the presence Of fire in the house,
having been awakened by the
smoke. He aroused his parents, who
Immediately realized the situation and
barely escaped from the building with
the lad and a daughter aged fourteen,
who slept in a bed in the same chamber,
before the flames rushed in with great
force. Up stairs the rest of the chill
dren had been sleeping, and being wild
with fear for their safety, poor Malloux,
attempted to open the stair door and go
TO their relief but he could do nothing;
he burned his hands badly, and after
all was compelled to retreat. But it
was in any case too late-the innocents
we're already developed in death. On
regaining the open air it was plain that
the fire had originated in a back kitch-
en- and burned its way steadily toward
the front, gaining the upper fat early
on, and laying hold of his own apart
ment only when all the rest of the house
had been reduced 20 a shell and every
thing therein consumed. When all was
over the charred remains of the victims
we're found in a heap, they having evil
IDENTIFY huddledin a corner of their room
when assailed by the flames, and there
met their fate. Doubtless the elder girl
gathered them to her, and encircled
them with her affectionate but power
less arms.

would undoubtedly be glad to renew

do so will probably not be given them.
