IN A CHRISTMAS LETTER.
Don't Want TO Fight.

III }. r." to Philadelphia Times.
By the way, has it ever struck you, Mr..
Editor, that it is very easy matter for
one member Of Congress to call another
liar in the House? And for the other to
reply that his accusscr is Il villain and Il
scOundrel: There is no possible danger in
the premises. There is some danger in
using these terms in the street, in bar
room or on the street cars but in the
House one or two hundred members are
present and it isn't possible for one honor
able member to punish anOthcr's nose. In
the very heat of this particular battle of
words, when "liar" and "scOuntlrel " and
"villain'' were being shouted back and
forth, with clenclcd fists pounding the
air, the House adjourned. These two men
had used language to each other which
would not be tolerated in the street by
gentleman or b60tblack, and yet, without
one minutes delay. the House adljOurns
AID leaves them free to fight if they
want to. 1t was only step into tho open
air, their coats were of and they could
have had a lovely knock down. But they
only wanted to fight when they couldn't.
When they could, they didn't want to.
What brave gentlemen to set an example
to the noble, manly boys who are growing
up all over the country! Every father
who is gentleman teaches his boy never
to do i mean thing, and never to use Ian
guayc toward u person in one place that he
is not ready (" avow in another. And yet
the boy, when he reads the newspapers,
discovers that the very men who make our
laws are nothing but co mmOn blackgualds.

A Card.


Persons contemplating the purchase of an
Encyclopedia of any kind will do well to call
ON the undersigned and examine the several
publications Of this class before purchasing
elsewhere, as we have constantly ON hand for
examination and comparison copies of the
latest editions of the American, Britannica,
Johnson's, Zell's and Chambers Cyclopadia
Several professional and business men in
this city and vicinity who not long ago SUBJ
seribed for the Encyclopedia Britannica, find
themselves greatly disappointed in the work
as book of reference for daily and family
use, and have either made an exchange for the
American or offered to assign their subscrip-
lions pM gift of four Uolames to any
who will assume their obligations to purchase
the future volumes, which will not be complet-
ed for the next four or five years.
Scientists who have use for any of the special
treatises of the Britannica will be able to buy
them separately or obtain the completed work
at large discount as soon as it is completed,
SO many are being offered to us in exchange
for the American Cyclopadia

ALL THE RAGE.

ALL THE RAGE.
Mr.. Eaton's farcical comedy of "All the
Rage" abounds, like Freaks and Our Board
ing House, with all plays Of that ilk, in all
sorts of funny situations, which are admirably
interpreted by Mr. Hardenburgh and the
other members of the company. The piece is
we'll dressed and amuses the audience to
hearty bursts of laughter. Last night the
tableaux were encored. The presidential
bulletins were placed ON the stage and gave
great satisfaction. We can only regret we
have not more space this morning to enlarge
upon the play. 1t will be repeated tonight
and tomorrow.

The New Theatre.

1t was expected yesterday that the plans and
specifications of the new theatre would be adj
vertised to-day or tomorrow, and yesterday
the plans were inspected at Mr.. Fassett's
office. AS now arranged they are somewhat
different from those previously published. A
plain, substantial building will be constructed
in the rear of Motley Block. There will be
an entrance on Casco street through hand
some two storied structure the corridor being
of ample width, and during the day closed by
ornamental iron gates. The portion of the
ground floor of the building below the corridor
will be occupied by an elegant cafe. There
will be wide passage-way between Mechan-
les Hall and the theatre corridor which will
afford additional means of egress from the
building should it prove necessary.
The doors from this corridor open out, and
through them you enter the theatre proper,
the lobby at the left of the entrance being
thirty feet wide. At the right are the stairs
that lead up to the balcony This grand stair
way is nine feet wide. The lobby from the
foot of these stairs to the extreme right of the
ground floor is ten feet wide. The orchestra
contains 532 Seats each 10 inches WIDE but can
accommodate over one hundred more. Beyond
the lobby, in the extreme right hand corner, is
the ladies' dressing-room, 15x11 feet in size.
On the right hand side of the building, be-
tween the stage and ladies' dressng-room are
two drawing-rooms for the actors, each 11x8 in
size, and connected by a passage way with the
stage. Directly under the grand staircase is
the gentlemen's cloak room, 13x14.
In the rear of the balcony is grand lobby,
with standing room for $50 people. The bal
cony will seat 300 If desired chairs could be
placed in regular line in the lobby, leaving
aisles between. On the extreme right, nearest
the stage, is the stage room, 1Sx11, and on the
right three dressing rooms for the actors two
11xS and one 13x11. In the rear, over the
lower lobby, is the managers room, which
looks on the court, 13x13.
The family circle seats 476, and is reached by
an entrance in the rear of the cafe, and the
staircase has no connection with any other
part of the theatre.
There are four handsome private boxes, two
on each side, with semi-circular fronts and
Corinthian columns. The stage is 3Sx65 in
the clear, and 80 feet high. With the scenery
in place; the opening of the curtain will present
stage 20 feet wide, 3S feet deep and "a feet

is the orchestra, Go feet in length and feet in
width. The stage entrance is in the rear, on
the left with passage from Casco street for
the transportation of baggage. Over it are the
star dressing one in each balcony 13x
Is in size. The property and carpenter rooms
are in the third story, over the theatre. not
over the stage. The curtain will not roll up
but ascend bodily. The stage footlights will
be sunk below the stage. A large we'll on the
top of the theatre will take away the foul air.
The pitch of the various floors will be such
that spectator can see clearly our the head of
the person in front.
