The matinee given yesterday by Tony Denier's
lHumpty Dumpty troupe filed the lower part
of the Opera House completely with a bevy of
ladies and perfect galaxy of children, while
the gallery was more than half filed. The de-
light of the, little ones at the antics Of the
clown and of Harlequin kuew no bounds, and
little hands wete clapped in ecstacv at the
comicalities of the performance. It was the
most numerously attended matinee that has
been seen in St. Paul for year.
The evening performance drew out full
house, thongh not crowded to such ap uncom-
Portable degree as on the previous evening.
The audience was composed on this occasion of
children of . large growth, but they laughed,
nevertheless, as heartily as did their juniors
during the afternoon. ii The entire performance
passed. off without wait, every, scene working
with the precision Of clock-work. The variety
interlude was enc Of the best ever seen on the

Katie Putnam.

The popular artistic, Miss Katie Putnam, is
announced to appear at the Opera House on
Friday and Saturday evenings of the present
week, with matinee on Saturday afternoon.
Miss Putnam, it will be Aremem bered, appeared
here about two years ago, and metEwith warm
reception. An exchange sin, speaking Of two
of her performances, says 4sFt
We venture the assertion, and feel perfectly
safe in SO doing. that our citizens who attended
the performance Tuesday and Wednesday
evenings. were never more pleased with any
entertainments witnessed id this city. The
company is headed by a little lady whose name
is a household word throughout most all the
country, particularly in the south and east,
Miss Katie Putnam. Vivacious, sprightly, and.
above all, perfectly natural, with great powers
of attraction and fascination, her success is
not at all to be wondered at. In single word
she is irresistible. IT, zas
In "Lena, the Madcap, her initial perform
ance, Miss Putnam may be said to have struck
her forte. Childllke, apparently artless, and
never exaggerating, she could not fail to please
the most hypercritical. In addition to her
other attractions, she adds that of a full round
soprano voice that is most effective in singing,
and the encores that ensued after her various
songs and dances were unmistakable evidences
Of the favor with which they were received. .

Intermixtura of Races.

Two gay lotharios, of the colored persua-
sion, who reside in st. Paul, though posses
sing families of their own, appear to have
fallen in love with white mans wife, the
woman in question having married former
well known base ballist of this city. About
one year ago the latter individual had occa-
sion to remove to Southern city, where he
went accompanied by his wife and one
child, and the good wishes of a host of warm
friends in this city.
The wife shortly returned to her mulatto
lover in St. Paul, and renting house on
Exchange street, they were happy in their
indecency until second ebony gemmen ap.
peared to rival the first. Without develop
ing his own liaison the discarded lover SUM
moned the aid of the police and with few
friends for spectators, they soon cleared the
Exchange street house of a much scared
darkey, who made 8 successful midnight
leap for liberty through rear door. The
police now propose to interdlct the visits Of
both rivals of the pale face affection, and il
is to be hoped the whole gang will be driven
from st. Paul.

The Lawyers and the students.

=
The ball game yesterday afternoon between
the lawyers and the lawyers, students clubs
proved quite interesting. Unfortunately the
management, in arranging the match did not
properly consider the batting strength Of the
two mines, SO that it was found necessary on
account II darkness to close the game at the
end of the seventh inning. An examination
of the score kept by VIM. B. Nc
Grorty, shows some very fine work by both,
and had it not been for the let down of the
lawyers in their fielding in the second

mediate future, BY engagements for the re-
mainder of the season with the Cleveland
and Boston league clubs who seem to be
badly in need Of some frst-class players.
Mr.. Uri Lamprey acted as umpire, and had
it not been for his very strict ruling
it is a matter of grave doubt If the first half
Of the first inning would have been ended
before nightfall set in. Weregret exceeding

the individual plays, especially the pitching
of Nichols of the students nine. IF he ever
pitches law at his opponent as he pitched the

lawyers in trying to circumvent his delivery
yesterday. The following is the score by in

The lecture of Col. Ingersoli on Thursday

to its full capacity. The noted orator has
created q widespread interest in theological
topics through his opposition to the generally
accepted theories of the day. The lecture an

tain much food for reflection. Christian and

.I.WilheInli,

On Tuesday evening next the distinguished
violinist, August Wilhelm, viii appear at the
Opera House, assisted by, the renowned violin
yirtuoso Franz Rummel and Miss May Bryant,
mezzo soprano. Herr Wilhelmjs reputation
alone is sufficient to fill the house TO- over
flowing. In speaking of his merits as atviolin-
ist the New York Times says:sses ssft8l
Wilhelmjls musical art, is prevailed with a
broad and noble feeling. Those exceeding
difficulties which are known to exist in the
Paganini concerto seemed to play themselves,
80 little percepti BILE were they. 1t was in the
paraphrase of the Preislie led of Wagner that
ampleur and noble sentiment were, most dis
tinguishable. 1t was masculine art in its
grandest conception which took this thema
and, without false ornament or a single trick,
brought it superbly through to its conclusion.
Applause here was given without stint. for the
best musical Interpretation We have ever had
of Wagner was now heard for the first time.
| Errst's better known Airs Hongrois," replete
with quaint melody, though bristling at times
with difficulties, allowed the artist to give
that true, sad and pensive style which
distinguishes these touching melodies. What
can we say of 1.-THE tone Herr Wilhelmj produces
from his violin? His is not a school Of VIC:
lence. The vibrations are true, must be SC
acoustically correct that their purity alone
gives them their perfect intensity. The bow
movement, the returning of the drchet on the
strings is imperceptible. The great distin.
gushing trait of this master is the truthful
unexaggerated sentiment which he possesses.

How A Widow Had Her "Senses'

self off the evening train Saturday, entered
the station and took a seat. He had whole
sale liquor breath about him and steaming up
through him, and his nose was as the winter
green berry, red and round and distinctively
bright, as if all the checkerberry he had put
in all the rum he had drank all through his
abandoned life had flowed into his empurpled
proboscis and there formed a gem, which
made him an ornament to bacchanalian socie-
ty.
"Does the Widow Marshmeadow live here
now?" he inquired Of Officer Mowry.
The officer, with his wonted courtesy, d.
rected him to her residence. 1t was IL
o'clock when he arrived there and summoned
her to the door.
Don't be embarrassed, madam" he said,
with wonderful mildness oftone and manner,
"because you don't know me. History has

bronzed and statuesque pages the names of
her proudest sons. This omission imparts
uniqueness to mans fame. l am the census

1t was IL o'clock, and the census-taker still
sat at the widows table, and her third bottle
of old currant wine before him.
81 shall put your name," he said, with in
comparable tenderness of tone and address,
somewhere about the middle of the book,
and under the head of Remarks shall add
the following: 'Cosey residence; tastefully
ornamented; latch-string always out beauti-
full fruit trees and ounce bushes here abound
in outrageous abundance; yellow legged
chickens always to be found on the premises
their legs become stained to a beautiful yell
low by constant wading through the golden
leaves of the naples that glorify the laws and
approaches of the beauteous homestead"
The widow smiled delightedly. and con-
cluded to put the pleasant census-taker in her
best bed-chamber, where all night long his
nose shone in his facial armament like lone
star of Bacchus.
