The Opera-HOuse- Change o
Bill Tonight.

The Opera House-Thorough Change of
Bill Tonight.
The 1.-TWO Medallions" was again pro-
duced by the Johnston & Miller Operatic-
Comedy Company to delighted audience
at Staub's Opera-House last night, AMI
again the house was kept in commissions of
laughter and amusement throughout. The
beautiful and petite little comedy-opera star,
Miss Amy Lee, admirably sustained her
leading role, and won fresh laurels.
Her excellent support was in per
feet tune throughout and came fully
up to the requirements. The ''Two Me-
dalions is an excellent production, brim-
full of rollicking fun and humor, yet car
rying out an interesting plot, the real theme
of which is the solo 1.-The only one that's
left of all the family" in which Mr.. Harry
A. Smith, as the Squire, elicits rapturous
applause at every appearance.
Tonight there will be an entire change of
bill, which will constitute grand potpourri
of original excellence, introducing selec-

Miller's original extravaganza, entitled
Fun in the Family" will be put on, in
Guiding numerous local hits, and rare opera
gems. The performance will con-
cfude with rich local sketch, entitled
"Scenes in the University of Tennessee"
composed and prepared specially for the
| occasion, and introduces the entire strength
of the company. This will be something
truly rich and catchy, and none should fail
to see it. We hope to see crowded house.

An Open Door.

Nine people out of ten leave door
open behind them. They do not seem
to know how to shut door. Itappears
to be natural and, probably, an inner
tied inability, just as with some people
there is no such thing as knowing one
tune from another, as with others 1t is
impossible to acquire facility aud hand
mess in the use of tools. Modern inge-
nuity has tasked itself to make up to q
suffering world for the incapacty or
negligence of people who never close q
door, by the application of weights or
springs that will automatically do what
every man, woman and child ought to
do instinctively. But even these appli-
ances are not always to be relied upon;
clearly, the door should be closed by the
person who opens it. There ought to be
thorough course of instruction in our
schools in the art CT shutting doors. The
first lesson would inculcate the clement
al and simple duty itself. Boys and girls
should DO kept passing doorway, each
one opening and closing the door for
himself and herself until not mothers
son or daughter of them could leave q
door ajar. Then the finer features Of
the accomplishment might be intro.
ducad. There are people who always
slam door; there are others who hold
it open and close it So slowly that num-
berless colds and sore Threats have
time to march through. Bat without
becoming too fastidjous, it is important
that every one should be taught to close
the door and fasten it in some way. The
amount of time professional man
spends, the distance he travels in his
Office, in jumping up and closing the
door after people who neglect that duty,
would astonisl one who had never given
the matter thought. TIE writer of this

A Solemn Mass.
BY II. ". LoNGrrLL0W.

Through woods and mountain passes
The winds like anthems roll:
They are chanting solemn masses,
Singing pray for this poor SOUL
Pray! Pray,"
And the loaded clouds like friars
Tell their beads in drops Of rain,
And pat,er their do,eful prayers:
But their prayers are all IL v4in,--
All in vain.
And then The old year dieth
And the forests utter a moan,
Like the voice OF one who cri,th
In the wilderness alone.
"Nex not his ghost,"
Then comes with an awful roar,
Gathering aud sounding on,
The storm-wind from Labrador,
The wind Euroclydon-
The storm wind.
Howl! howl. and from the forest
Sweep the red leaves away!
Would the sin that thou abhorrest,
o soul! could thus decay,
And be swept away!
For there shall come mightier blast
There shall be a darker day;
And the stars from heaven down cast
Like red leaves b: swept away.
Kyrie eleison!

But, instead of complying with the

A Locomotive Boom

The Baldwin Locomotive Works, tho
two or three Thousand employees of
which have boon working night and
day for months past, has Just received
the largest order for locomotives over
given in this country. Heretofore an
order for ten engines at one tine was
considered o large ons. but the present
order comes from the Denver aIG Ri
Grande Railroad Company. and calls
for la comotives. part OF which mum
Der will be delivered next fall, aud the
remainder during the following winter.
These locomotives are intended to
meet the increased equipment required
by the southern extension of the Den
yer and Rio Grande road, for which
the financial arrangements were COM
pleted month or so ago. Sufficient of
the bonds of the new division have
been subscribed for to enable the COM
pany to proceed with its construction.
The cost of the 14I locomotives will
aggregate something over 81 900. 900,
or about 81 600 apiece, and with the
present force employed in the works it
would take about three months time,
providing there was 10 interruptions,
before the engines could be mado ready
for shipment. The Baldwin Company
will not begin work upon them for six
months yet, and it's prosecution will be
in accordance with the terms Of deliv-
cry so that the resources of TIE works
