THE STAGE.
At Home and Abroad.


Unexpectedly the people Of Se,l,-
lin, were deprived o: any dramatic ell
tertainments during the Fair Week.
The Blanche DE Bir troupe were
billed to play, but like Il great many
other similar organizations their ex-
penditures exceeded their income and
they unfortunately fell BY the way
side. Ii was too late then to make
,ther arrangements and so Fair week
passed away and the crowded city
excepting the single day and night in
which Barnum held fourth to de
lighted audiences, had nothing to in
terest it in the way Of amusements.
But this week We shall he more fortu-
ate.
HARRY HoBINsON's MINsTRELs
are billed to play ut Smiths Hall.
Thursday night. and it is perhaps no
exaggeration I, saw the lovers Of fun
have u rich treat in store for them.
They are not entirely unknown to
true play goers, AMI since they were
here last, have added MANY novelties
to their attractions-a conspicuous
feature OF which is
THEIR SIX END MEN
one Of the things which no other min
strels have ever attempted, and which
nothing but the superior merit Of
these artistic could have success fully
accomplished. Another novalty Is
the great statue clog dance-a quin
tette-in which five artists appear on
the stage mt once Of course, Harry
Robinson himself, in his Leger,lemain
tricks and
BURLESQUE TRAPEZE
is Enthusiastically funny and would
draw crowded audience if nothing
else was given. But there are great
many others. equally meritOrious and
attractive. which should not he forgot
ten b those who admire the rich and
racy and rare in art. The entire bill
is genuine novelty.

Pierre Lorillard's Newport Cot
tsge.
From tn. Providence Journal.
a visit this morning to Ochre Point
proves that Mr.. Pierre Lorillar,l is
having built one Of the largest. if not
the iarges, hoase in America. An AL
ditiOnal purchase Of nm acre of Mr..
I4awrences has enabled Mr.. LOrillard
tn complete his plans, which are briefly
~ follows: The house will have a
frontage of l7S feet 8 inches. the eel
lar floor being the extreme length Of
the building. by 81 feet wide and 9
feet high. The drive to the house
will be reached from Narragansett
avenue. the route being directly from
that point to the house. The road il
being widened by at least 10 feet.
The house, which has more than fifty
five angles. will be made of brick at
the first story, and the upper part will
be Of wood. The entrance will be
room the west. where FIVE 1Ofeet wide
steps will enable the visitors to reach
q magnificent reception room or hall,
for the two will be combined. At the
south end the conservatory will be
built, and here also will be found a
lOunging piazza fourteen feet wide.
The interior arrangement Of this house
are not as yet complete, but the exte-
riOr condition of things is under Mr..
Michael Butler, Of Perry, street, in
good order for view. All along the
rugged coast has been built fine sea
wall, varying in its slope from forty
five or fifty-feet. So beautifully have
these slopes been leveled that, with the
strongest wind, not a particle Of the
newly placed earth moves. The sod
ding will commence ON Saturday next.
At this eastern spot there is to be a
boat house erected, and here Mr..
Lorillard will receive his frinds who
desire to 60 on an aquatic excursion
At the north Of the boat house, out
on the most prominent ledge, will be
erected what to be called a rustic
summer house. From the floor this
will be fastened with iron rails, in
order to prevent danger against any
sudden storm. South Of this will be |
the fishing arrangements for the capture
IF bass. and everything will be upon |
the same plan a. that at Mr.. Winan's,
but on q more extended scale. The
plan ofthe stable is not. vet ready for
public inspection, but it is sufficient to
NY that it will have q capacity for
