Columbus & uaysville Ry,

A special from Hillsboro to the Cincin-
natl Gazette of Monday says: ''The Di-
rectors of the Columbus 6 Maysville Rail-
road, Southern Division, closed a contract
last night with the Columbus Rolling Mill
Company for the iron for the road be-
tween Hillsboro and Sardinia, the con-
Meeting point with the G. & E. Railroad.
The delivery of iron will commence at
once, and tracklayers will begin putting
it down at the southern end of the line
next week. The bridges and trestles are
all finished, and the ties on the ground.
Arrangements for the purchase of rolling
stock have also been completed, and Pres
ident Bell says he will have the cars run
ming into Hillsboro by Christmas. There
is much rejoicing here and along the line
as the close times have made it hard work
for the company to raise the money!

Miss Jane Coomhs.

This favorite actress, supported by her
excellent company, will appear at Music
Hall next Wednesday evening, Novem-
Der Goth, for one night only, in the beau
tiful play of "Camille,'' when she will
undoubtedly be greeted by large audi
ence. The Louisville Courier Journal thus
speaks of the play and Miss Coombs' act
ing:
In saying that Camille is the best play
we have from the French, we do not re-
call single exception. 1t is nature in
| its conception and interesting in It's de-
velopments, while its incidents are work
| ed up with an ability and an appre-
| citation for the dramatic power and beau
| ty, which is sadly wanting in nearly all
new plays that find their way to the stage.
1t is not of the play that we desire to
speak, but of Miss Coonbs' impersona-
| ton of Camille. 1t was nature, beautiful
free from OvercolOring, and, at times, sc
affecting as to move the audience to tears,
| 1t is fault with most Camille's, to over
do the part, especially in the more emo
tional scenes, seeming not to appreciate
the beauty and tenderness of notion
Miss COombs' acting is free. from such
| blemlsheS. Her more affecting scenes are
mellowed by common sympathy with
humanity that brings the character into
life, as it were, making us experience al
those emotions and sympathies which the
reality of the picture would call forth.
The interview with Monsieur Duval
when he appeals to her in behalf o
Armand's sister, and implores her if sh'
loves Armand to leave him, could no
fail to win the sympathy of the audience
Camille loves Armand. Around hin
cluster her brightest hopes; with him tn
world is all brightness and joy; withou
) him the reverse; but when called upoI
, to sacrifice all to prove her love, sh
nerves herself for the task The anguisl
such sacrifice casts is not only portray
: ed in tears and trembling voice, but i
| pictured in her COuntenance.-
Seldom has the Louisville stage pro
duced anything so natural, beautiful, an
affecting. What we say of this scene vii
apply to all the latter scenes of the play
= In the death-bed scene, when she walk
9 to the glass, and, seeing her emaciate
face, realizes the frightful reality tina
death has laid its hands upon her, shut
I ting out all the hopes of life, and fall
5 back into chair overcome with dispai1
begging piteously to only live till Sprin
> till Armand comes-there was hardly
G dry eye in the audience.
