"NO THOROUGHFARE."

Another 6ue audience attended the Carson
excellent acting of Mr.. Florence as Jules
Obenreizer in the drama of ''No Thorough
fare" The story from which this play has
been drauatized is one of the strangest works
of modern fiction, all of the characters being
sharply drawn, each having its own indivld-
ad peculiarities. Neither Charles Dickens
nor Wilkie Collins, who wrote the story joint
ly, was given to padding work in the line of
romance writing, and all the characters of the
story have BEEN introduced for a purpose.
But Obenreizer is the central figure of g No
Thoroughfsre," the body around which the
lesser figures revolve. He is smooth, plausi-
bic villain, whose worst moods have fasciua-
ton about them. If it be our lot to be
svindled we prefer to have the swindling
done with polish, culture in the art, so to
speak, to having the operation performed in
coarse, bungling or vulgar way. 1ago fasci-

THE STRASBURG CLOCK.

There is hardly any one who has not heard
of the great clock of Strasburg; of its marvel
out mechanism, and the cruel fate of the
maker. The famous working model of this
celebrated clock will be displayed to the pub
lie in the spacious store on Carson Street,
which has been fitted up expressly, commenc-
| ing this evening. As wonder of science and
mechanical ingenuity the great original is
famous throughout the world, and this, the
fac simile in every respect, must prove more
attractive and interesting, as it combines all
its mechanical features with undisputed pre-
csion and truthfulness. its run of six weeks
in San Francisco, and the increasing daily
attendance as its merits became known, until
nearly forty five thousand persons saw it, is
certainly a guarantee of it's excellence. The
exhibition is continuous afternoon and even
ing at the nominal admission of 25 cents,

DARL1Na.-Laste evening after the second

gentleman stepped out upon the sidewalk
where he was immediately besieged by lot
Of boys begging for "check." Among the
gang was . well dressed lad with refined
looking oountsnance, who could not have been
over thirteen years of age, and whose exterior
bore evidence to the fact he did not belong
to the social riff raft of the community. This
boy was more importunate and his clanor-
ings louder for the gentleman's theater check
than the regular gamin. The gentleman re-
piled that he did not feel disposed to give
away his check as he wanted to use it again.

Remarkable Funeral.

A remarkable funeral was that of the
student who was shot so brutally few
weeks ago in Wurzburg, Bavaria, by an
officer of the City Guard. He was ar
rested while on lark, and, attempting
to run from his captors, was deliberate
ly shot in the back at close quart
ers. Great public commotion fol-
lowed, the general aversion OF the Ger
man people to the insolence of the
military being stimulated by this act to
the highest pitch. A mass meeting was
called at which petition and address
to the government were adODted, de-
handing the severest punishment for
the +" frivolous and brutal assassination. !"
The funeral was attended by nearly
1000 students and by the entire Faculty
of the university. The body had been
lying in state In the hospital during the
borne forth with funeral music, followed
by the long procession of students,
bearing torches and flags draped in
mourning. 1t was carried through the
main streets of the city to the railway de-
pot where special train was waiting to
carry it to the home Of the young
mans parents. The return of the pro-
cession was through the streets along
which the student had taken his way on
the fatal night. Opposite the main gar
rison, to which the officer who had shot
the student belonged, the procession
halted and formed hollow square,
in the middle of which the standard
bearers with their draped flags station
ed themselves. Then, while the flick
ering torches cast fantastic shadows
over the plaza, the Gandeamus was
sung. With the last words Of this stu
dent song all hurled their torches SIM
ultaneously to the ground, and in dark
ness and silence the multitude dispersed
The report having spread that the COM
mander of the garrison to which the
guilty officer belonged had exp1 essed
his approval Of the murder, he received

Discomfort.

Two boats rocked on the river.
In the shadow of leaf and tree;
One was in love with the harboT;
One was in love with the sea.
The one that loved the harbor
The winds of fate outbore:
But held the other longing,
Forever against the shore.
The one that rests on the river,
In the shadow of leaf and tree,
With wistful eyes looks ever
To the one far out at sea.
The one that rides the blllow.
lhough sailing far and fleet,
Looks back to the peaceful river,
To the harbor safe and sweet.
One frets against the quiet
of the mess grown shaded shore;
One signs that it may enter
That harbor never more.
One wearieS of the dangers
Of the tempest's rage and wall;
One dreams. amid the lilies,
OF a far-otf snowy sail.
Of all that life can teach us
There's naught so true as this
The winds of fate blow ever,
But evet blow amisS.

CHRISTIAN CONSISTENCY.

For many years past the ministers of the
Christian. church have inveighed loudly
against some of the most fragrant sins of
the community. The theatre has been de-
nounced because of its immoral tendency
and tone; dancing has been condemned be-
cause of its sinful tendency upon the youth
who engage in it; the card table has been
declared to be pernicious and demoralizing;
billiards, and even croquet, have come in for
q share of the invective from the pulpit
while the lottery has been spoken of as the
sum of all villainies-the most destructive
as well as one of the most seductive of vices
which is permitted to exist. 1t is we'll known
that the SUNDAY GLOBE does not share in the
opinions of the clergy as to all these amuse-
ments, but in the matter of gambling we
can most cordially approve all that has been
said. 1t is vice that ought to be aiscoun-
tenanced by all Christians and moral men.
Games of chance of every description tend
not only to inspire the mind with the idea
that property can be acquired without labor,
but it destroys the feeling that ought to in
here in every human Icing of the sacred
ness of the property rights of others. e.
Since the church generally has taken such
strong grounds against the vice of gambling,
we have right to expect that its members
shall live up to the doctrine. We confess to
having felt surprise that games of chance
were SO frequently made feature of church
fairs, and we confess to have felt still greater
