John Mccullough.

Already the interest in the coming season
of tragedy, with John Mccullough in some
of his greatest roles, is becoming great
throughout the city. Although he has never
visited st. Paul heretofore, his fame has pre-
coded him. Everywhere the critics speak in
the most glowing terms of his superb acting.
The Brooklyn Eagle, speaking of his recent
season in that city, says:
Without desiring to detract from the reputa-
ton of any other American tragedian-or to
name invidiously the only one who can be
called rival in the estimation of the public
and Granting to MIR. Booth all that will be
claimed for him by his most ardent admirers, it
still is to be said that Mr.. Mccullough is the
foremost actor of our time Mr.. McCullough's
art is above all artifce, and largely independent
of stage effect. He would be as much Othello
if given barn to play in, or one of those rude
theatres of Shakespeares time, as with the
more approved accessories. 1t is Mr.. McCul-
lough's strong personality that invades, or
rather pervades, all he does, and that gives to
all his characterizations the essential dignity of
manhood. When we are tired of mannerism
and stilted aHectation, such acting as this,
virile with strength and glowing with life,
shames the colorless creations of the schools.
No other actor has so fully interpreted the old
Roman life as Mccullough. He wears the toga
as though it were his by right; his classic face

noblest of them ali. There is massiveness, re-
pose, dignity, subdued tenderness and intense
realism in his representation Of such colossal
characters Othello and Virginius. He has
been SAID to lack snbtlety of acting, but many
of his creations show this quality in it's very
pe1fections Mccullough has the versatility
that belongs to greatness, and gives alike
wildly the pathos of Lear, the passion of
Othello, the cool purpose of Iago, and the in
trospection of Hamlet. He respects his art.
No frenzy of passion, no burst of eloquence,
carried too far, mars the symmetry of his act
sight and the grace and finish of his acting. is
that broad feeling of kinship for humanity,
that innate human goodness and sympathy,
which is the secret of his power

WHY HE TRAMPS,

The Eloquent Remarks of Christian Janett
Which Secured Him Fourteen Days.
When asked if he had anything to say to
the charge of vagrancy, at the forenoon ses-
sion of the municipal court yesterday, Chris
tian JANET slowly lifted his detected gaze
from a close communion seance with the
solled mating of the court room, carefully
adjusted a faded Picadilly, rose to his feet
and with snappishness of voice that was
almost painful, addressed the court as fol-
lows: 81 am thankful, your honor, for the
inestimable privilege accorded me of once
M ore exercising the priceless boon of unre-
served utterance, in this, my adopted coun-
try. The wreck who tremblingly confronts
you, and who will not resort to the petty
tricks of vulgar felon to invite the clemen-
cy of an upright tribunal, has not always been
the miserable wretch you now see him.
From my youth up I have painted with a
burning and consuming zeal for universal
freedom, and from the knees of sainted
mother vowed to consecrate my life to the
delightful task of keeping bright the altar
fire of worldwide liberty. I have held
loving converse with the potent spirits of the
great and illustrious departed, imbibed sweet
pabulum from the pierian springs of thought,
communed with the mighty souls of martyrs,
browsed in the soothing meditations of the
Novum Organum--(at this point the classic
ear of the clerk was seen to expand, and
that individual made a hasty dive for his
dictionary of Latin quotations,) but I will
not weary you with the recital of my journey
from the oriental and luxurious domains of
my ancestors to this the native eyre of free
dom.
Suffice it that came to the country of a
Washington with my burning zeal and was
received as an alien. The lust for lucre has
not yet, thank God, seized the better portion
OF my being, and from the high estate of an
apostle have fallen to the vulgar condition
of tramp. I am done, your worship, and
await with fortitude the measure of your
finding.
The court seemed lost in reflection.
Accusing from his lethargy, he said, 'sMr.
Janett, scarcely know whether to commit
you to the insane asylum, recommend you
for foreign mission or have you sent to
the county bastile, but in view of all the
circumstances you will be better off in the
latter place, at least until grass grows. He
was sent up for fourteen days.

BUILDING .BUSTLE.

Work Commenced on q Pork Packing Es-
adjustment on Tenth Street-TwO New
manufacturing Buildings, Corner Sixth
and sibley Streets-Other Improvements.
Every day brings new developments of
building improvements to be made in st.
Paul this year. Yesterday Mr.. John j.
OLeary, pork packer and dealer in smoked
meats, 1928 West Third street, commenced
hauling material for the erection of large
West Tenth street, on the vacant lot just
west OF st. Peter street. Here Mr.. O'Leary
has lot 100 by $50 feet, on which he will
erect building Is by 100 feet, and two
stories in height, brick front with cut stone
trimmings, and stone side and rear walls,
and fitted up with all the modern
appliances for conducting his business
expedltlously and economically. Mr.. O'Leary
does no slaughtering, but buys his meat in
carcass, and therefore the location of the de-
cidedly substantial and ornamental build
ing which Mr.. O'Leary proposes to erect,
will be decided acquisition to that neigh
borhood.
Another decided improvement, or rather
improvements, have been commenced at he
corner of Sixth and Sibley streets. Here
Messrs. M. 81. Crittenden & Co., roofers and
manufacturers of galvanized iron cornices,
etc.. and II. j. McAfee, machinist, have
leased for ten years tract of land $50 feet
square, upon which they will Immediately
erect shops in which to carry on their re-
spectlve businesses. While the
lease of the land is in
common each will construct distinct
building. The location embraces portion
of what was formerly known as "Baptist
Hill, and laying several feet above the
street grade. Preparation of the ground for
building has required the removal of large
body of earth, which has been in progress
for some time past. This grading down
is now so nearly completed, however, as to
allow the inauguration of building opera
tions and yesterday workmen commenced
upon the foundation for the Crittenden
building. This is to occupy the corner, and
is to be SO by 100 feet and two stories high.
Mr.. McAffee's building adjoining will be Is
by 100 feet Both will be frame
structures and considerably larger than
the structures they are now occupying, the
the growth of their business compelling the
change. It is the intention to have the build
ings ready for occupancy early in May.
The connecting store in Warmers block
Sibley street, is being pushed forward rap.
idly, as is also work on Hale's block, jackson
street.
Every day sees ground broken for one or
more dwelling houses, but there is yet moth
ing like the activity there should be in this
respect. The GLOBE again warns the prop
erty owners and capitalists not to throw
away their day of grace.
