MUSIC AND THE. DRAMA.
A crNTLEMAN FROM NEVADA.

There In but one path to the unrestricted enjoy
SAINT of amelOdrama, The spectator must take it
with faith, and not with reason, Approached in
this spirit, Mr. Jessop's play, entitled "AGentleman
from Nevada, "-uow current at the Fifth Avenue
Theatre,-will be found both interesting and
effective. Its plot, to be sure. rests upon basis OF
bapable improbability, its action is carried onward
by means of the most reckless and extravagantinoi
dents. its characters are widely distorted from the
standard OF rational life and its current is fire.
Quenty impeded by episodes of needless dialogue
and fowery passages of fantastic language
II begins with murder in the far West, 1t depicts
the murderers subsequent efforts to marry into the
family Of his victim, and it eliminates IN his dis
comfiture at the hands Of rough diamond of West
srn border civilization whose name is Christopher
Columbus Gall, and who may be described as
compound of much that Is noble In human nature
and pretty much all that is offensive in ignorance
conceit -bre eding and noisy self-assertion. This
Idea of thrusting a civilized Mohawk into the re-
fined atmosphere of an English home, and there
making him the terror of all proprety, the slapdash
friend of virtue, and the regulator alike of saints
and sinners was long ago illustrated in "Our Amer
lean Cousin" Mr.. JessOp has used it again, with,
perhaps some little novelty of treatment. but
without that thorough workmanship. that serious
consideration of every element OF the suOJect, anu
that logical method of writing, which alone can
construct an nvulnerable work of art. The best OF
its situations is that in which Mr.. GdH permits
himself to be arrested, in place of the imper1lled
friend whom lie wishes to II 1t be SAID that
the piece is chiefly servlceabe vehicle for the
presentation of NJ. Folks peculiar characteristics
the reader will understand both its purpose ana IT'S
value. Mr.. Po;k perv,ides the play with ncessant
sprightliness fills all the situations with Yigor ana
,lill speaks the Western slang in dry, amusing
manner and with many cnmica intonatlOns ana
carries with him the sympathy and kindly good
will of his eudience. The fault Of his art, IN TINS
personatiOn is that he does not speak the slang Oh
ar. Gall as if it came naturally TO his iipS' Dut
rather as a gentleman does who is conscious OF
psing MI artificial vocabulary. 1t may be natural
for Mr. Denman Thompson, when dancing III draw
ing-room to pull off his boots and capcr about III his
stockings but neither such breaches % all proplcy
such yulgarisS of rustic commonplace OF the chat-
ter of the prairie bar-ro0m seems natural TO MI
Polk. That hr is very amusing, however, is not to
be denied. There is other character i'll tho piece
excepting that Of Ur. Gall. Tho types which are
employed are entirely conventional. comic SER
vant.-klndrei with Nr. BiHneg-is played with
drollery and skill by Mr. ID. H. Chase. y Gentle
man from Nevada will be acted at the Fifth Ave-
nue. Theatre throughout the present week.

TINT INJUNCTION.

Thursday, of last week, was the day fixed

tion against the Water Company and its con

town of Bloomsburg, and near relative being
a member Of the board of directors of the de.
iendant. Afiidavits were read and arguments

atfidavits are those of four members of the Town
Council, majority, saying that they believe the

of facts, who Is it that is asking for an iniunc.
ton? Judge Rockefeller took the papers and

on Market street in front of the residence of {
q. Barkley, The earth caved in from the top,

street Both men are getting along nicely, and
Morris was able to be about on Tuesday. II
was narrow escape, and might have resulted
in death.

People who have a desire to be humbuga ed
have been furnished with opportunities during
riatic acid for the cure of corns, warts &c. for
% cents a small bottle, substance worth about
cents a pound The doctors say it is dan
gerous article to have lying around. Another
man with banjo puts a greenback in small
pack of soap and then after mixing the pack
with number of others, offers to sell five of the
packs for dollar, with a chance of getting the
greenback This is clearly gambling, and is
strictly prohibited by law, and ought to be
stopped by the authorities.
