Miss Dickfnson's TrOu bles.

Sudden collapse has come upon Miss
Anna Dickinson's dramatic venture at the
Eagle Theatre, and there are different
opinions as to the reasons therefor. Miss
Dickinson's own opinions on the subject
will be found over her signature in another
column. She says that "seven pieces of
scenery" which should have been supplied
were wanting that the furniture was not
properly upholstered that the theatre was
short Of properties and had no drapery.
These accusations seem to imply IN opinion
on the lady's part that some theatrical access
series are necessary to the successful per-
formance of play q crude theory that
stupendous personal superiority and
oceans of genius are not all sufficient
in such cases. Here was theatre filled
with Anna Dicllinsons talent but poorly
supplied with properties, and the prepos-
ferrous notion finds place that the failure
was due to that pitifal absence of proper
ties. Can this be true theory? Is,the
merely theatrical element of such over
whelming importance? If this be correct
view it seems to us that the lady is thrust
presence of au actress in the leading part in
the play would itself be of some con-
sequence, and that the absence of such an
important feature might be of even greater
moment than the absence of few proper
ties or than little defective upholstery.
We difidently hint this, with the hope that
it may not provoke scoiding match at
our expense. Miss Dickinson's dramatic ex-
perience has reached an important phase
She has tried the stage and failed, and she
will not recognize the real cause of failure.
She scolds the newspapers and scolds the
managers as the mortal enemies of her tran
guilty, merely because the public will not
come out to hear a dull lecture on English
history which she fancics is play because
the narrative is broken up in the form Of
dialogue. Let her therefore scold the pub
lie for staying away, and then consider a
little whether there is not such thing rs
mimic art to be acquired by training in the
theatre, and study and observation every

If the genial official who presides over the
Police Department is not efficient in the dis
charge of his duties in the matter of street
cleaning he is at least funny about them.
This is big thing even if the dirt is
bigger one, and the chasm into which the
street cleaning appropriation is dumped is
the biggest Of it's kind. Artemus Wards
kangaroo was, according to his owners
account "an amoosin' little Gus" and per-
means exhausted ali the possibilities for
provoking laughter Men who have lively
appreciation of the ridiculous are more
common among US than we suppose,
and are easily made to laugh, no
matter how solemn or sacred the sub
ject. To draw the line between what
should be laughed at and what should
cause grief and confusion is very difficult
matter. A Western settler once returned to
his home and found his dwelling burned,
his wife scalped and his baby Drained. In
the excess of his grief and horror he ex-
claimed, 'This is too ridiculousr' Such
remark serves to illustrate how q man will
associate the terrible with the absurd, even
when he suffers himself Now, turning to
the case of dirt-besmeared New York, with
it's daily and increasing contributions to the
suburban cemeteries, we can almost hear
President Smith exclaim that it is ''too
ridiculous" The mere fact that the city
is very dirty he regards as decidedly funny,
and laughs heartily at the idea of cleaning
the streets Mt a cost of only three quarters of
million dollars per annum. Among his
best jokes, which we publish on another
page OF to-day's HERALD, are that =" the very
highest sanitary authority in New York"
is Professor Chandler" that cremation
might make lime cheap and dirt dear"
and that with eight or ten good scows,
good dumping places and eight hundred
and fifty thousand dollars year" some
thing could be done. These witticisms
are enough to make anybody laugh,
and who, therefore, can blame Com
missioner Nichols for losing his gravity
when they were uttered? Perhaps Presi-
dent Smith can tell us, when he stops laugh
ing, why he does not give the city three
quarters Of q million dollars worth of street
cleaning as it is That odd hundred thou
sand dollars worth we will not mind for
the present. but will be more than satisfied
with the good work the present appropria-
ton can secure BE generous, most
facetious of Police Presidents and allow
your fellow citizens to share your hilarity,
for they are literally in the dumps just now.

An Important Cow Case.

In another column will be found a COM
munication of public interest from Mr..
Bergh. President of the Society for the Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Animals, in which he
gives history, with notes, of his nominal
victory, but real defeat, in case in which
he endeavored to secure the punishment
of one of the keepers of garbage-fed cows.
Mr. Scion Single, it may be remembered,
was Of the opinion that the most important
point in a COW case was to have the right
kind of lawyer. Without due attention
given to that point all else, he thought, was
vanity. If Mr.. Bergh has not overlooked
that requirement of litigation we are sure
that he has done nearly all that humanity
is equal to in this connection for that his
case against the COW keeper was just
that the COW keeper should have been
severely punished, and that his escape
is a rcproach to our criminal system of all
this there can be no doubt whatever and
scarcely two opinions among fair-minded
men. Mr.. Bergh, directing the energies
of his society in what is indisputably it's
proper function, rs in this case, has our
sympathies and, we doubt not, the sympa-
thies of the whole public, and we regret that
his efforts so directed should fail but, and
we say it kindly, we are not surprised that
they do. II Mr.. Bergh will incline his ear
this way we will whisper into it what we be-
lieve to be the reason. That reason is to be
found in the direction of some warnings we
have hitherto given. His mistaken, not to
say ridiculous, applications of the law to
points it was never intended to reach and
that it can only reach by a stretch of author
ity have done harm to his cause, MS fool
ish advocacy is apt to do to every
good cause. lilo has provoked the

More Military Tyranny

One hundred thousand Tichborne men,
the cable assures us, want to know the rea-
son why the British Parliament does not
come to the rescue, set aside the verdict and
sentence, open the doors OF Millbank Prison
and give Sir Roger Arthur Orion Tichborne
his liberty. In order that they may know this
they propose to 'escort" petition to the
neighborhood Of the House OF Commons,
and the government has consequently taken
the wise precaution to have handy and
within call all the troops stationed in and
near London. 1t is set down in the
chronicle that this number Of one hundred
thousand Tichborne men is exclusive of
the Kenealy division of the. Tichborne
party, which perhaps numbers hundred
thousand more. This seems large number
of persons to be the victims of delusion
SO shallow but when was the world
without the spectacle of shallow delusions
accepted earnestly by at least as many? All
England has heard Of the Tichborne case,
and all who have heard have formed opin-
ions one way or the other. Consequently
the English people are divided into Itch
bornites and anti-Tichbornites, and the day
has not yet come when hundreds of thou
sands OF men cannot be rallied for any side
whatever on which it can be said there is
right, even though it require an ample fund
of impotence to say it. There are also, no
doubt, hundred thousand men in London
of '.the dangerous classes" who would utIl-
liz, any opportunity to plumber shops or
houses, and these may give the Tichborne
demonstration practical aspect.

hostility of all who were previously
indifferent; he has alienated many who
were with him in sentiment Z; he has put a
benevolent and generous charity before the
world in the attitude of an ill-willed, can
tankerous machinery foy interfering with
many legitimate pursuits on points of cru
city that were merely matters of opinion.
Consequently the public has lost faith and
turned away its face, and does not sustain
him against the rough ones with whom he
must necessarily deal. Yet we trust he will
not give up on the COW cases. 1t would be
more legitimate for the Board of Health to
pursue this evil but there is no hope of any
advantage to the public from that source,
and we trust, therefore, that Mr.. Bergh will
persist in this direction.
