METROPOLITAN THEATER. = Mr.. Mobiles
play of "a Man of the People drew a
crowded house last night. The audience was
kept in almost constant laughter. The piece
is not SO interesting as "The Phoenix" be-
cause there is less good character-acting in
it. The same artists do not find equally as
happy roles. Nevertheless, sensational and
extravagant as it is, it touches many times
the popular vein, and though of the ultra
yellow covered type, it has some admirable
lines, while it is filed with comieal sit
nations, and amuses. The piece is to be
given this afternoon, beginning at 2 o'clock
The troupe leaves for Virginia tonight.
This afternoons performance is in response
to quite general request, and in answer to
communication addressed to the management
and signed by number of citizens, as stated
by the stage-manager from the footlights last
evening. Miss Lee quite captivated the
upper tier last night by her piquant singing
in the last act. She is q soubrette of exceed
ingly happy presence on the stage, and the
gallery cheers her loudly. Mr.. Mobiles had
less to do as Ryder than as Graves, but was
faithful, as in the first instance, and correct
in all details. Mr.. Schwartz again had the
comic" business in hand, and was very
as Tony, but compared to his Moses
Soiomons the character and the acting suffer
greatly. The orchestra which has played
during this engagement, and is of local musi-
clans, has been especially successful in its
efforts to do well.
GETTING FREE DRINKs.-Joseph Morgan,
a large, burly-looking fellow, walked into
downtown saloon yesterday afternoon and
attracted considerable attention by gusto
statement of adventures he was about to

invited all present mp to take drink, and a
joined in the treat of the famous miner.
After glasses were emptied and returned to
the counter, and he still entertained the null
titude without making any move towards
payment, the proprietor politely called his
attention to the fact that he had forgotten TO
settle for the drinks, when he, with the ut
most injured dignity, told the barkeeper to
go to-where It's very warm. In moment
