ton of their couhtenance. 1t was in itself
the bitterest criticism upon the retrogresslon
of the stage, concerning which so much has
recently been written. Right here it is in
point to remark how necessary it Is to pre-
serYe the unities and how essential it Is that
the details and surroundings should combine
| with the spirit of the performance-as for
instance, when the actors were doing their
best to lift the veil aud afford a glance along
the dark vistas OF the past, and impress the
auditors with something of the spirit OF the
age and time, how utterly disillusioniziug it
was to have the orchestra, which should hav5

timed temperance in the middle of a scene
TO bow his thanks for merited applause, while
the floor of his chamber, after Nemours' at
tack upon him. Because the audience was
carried away by its enthusiasm TO more than
usually prolonged applause, the actor should
not have lost his head, and have convinced
the people that Nemours, after all, was only
Grismer. LIST stage managers rise to the
level of the play in hand hereafter and pre-
vent such objectionable incongruities
List night Mr.. Sheridan appeared in
Richard Ill His strength was not equal to
the strong contrast made by the weakness of
ths company for that piece-a troupe much
too light for the occasion, however well
adapted for different class Of plays. Under
the circumstances the lender did rot shine to
advantage, and, saving the aid rendered by
Mr.. Grismer and Miss West, and the little
Misses Francis and Barry, hal to bear the
burden quite alone, and as a result the play
was ratified through at lively rae.

Poor SHooTING.-At about o'clock last
evening four pistol shots were heard in quick
succession at Third and streets, causing a
general rush in that direction. The police
put in an immediate appearance and found
that the shooting was caused by sort of free
row among the Chinese, but, as is always the
case, it was difficult TO find which was who
and what it was all about. An Coo, All zee
and All Sing were found to have been en-
gagged in the combat, but no firearms were
upon any OF them except All Coo. He had a
Colts navy revolver with barrel about ten
inches long, but IS only one chamber was
empty it was evident that others were en-
gagged in the shooting. No blood or remains
were found, and the shooting was apparently
poorly done and wasted.
CITY JUSTICES CASES The decision of tie

one upon which decision is announced.

-Four sheets in a wash-boilsr in the back yard.
Result: Some thieving hands wrung out the
sheets in the dead hours of the night and
carried them off. Mrs. D. is of the opinion
that the chaps necks should be manipulated
as they served her sheets. In the meanwhile,
if any stray sheets are pawned or offered for
sale-careat emptoT.
