The Players.

New York, 4.-The Greek play
"Gdipus Tyranous," was given at,
Booths on Monday night, for the
first time in this city. The stage
setting, music and costumes were
all in keeping, and the play was as
much a success as a Greek play
could possibly be. Georges Riddle,
as Gdipus Tyranous, deserves the
highest praise for scholarly attain
ments and excellent reading. Miss
George Cayran, as Jacosta, attained
a success that surprised even her
friends. The play has run through
a week, but was removed from
Booths last night.
Quite stir was made in fashion
able circles by the performance of
Patience by company of anna
teurS from our first society. Per-
fOrmances were given at Chickering
Hall, and were attended by the elite
in full dress. 'Patience'' under
these circumstances could not fail
to be success of the most pro-
nounced character. The players
were thoroughly drilled by J. II.
Riley, who takes the part of Bun
thorne, at the Standard Theatre,
and the two performances were emf
nently enjoyed. The voices were
fresh and cultivated, and it was by
far the best sung "Patience" in the
city.
McCreery's comic opera, 'La
/ trique, EVA produced at the Bijou
ION Monday. The audience that
| filed the house on that night was
decidedly friendly and anxious to
give every encouragement to young
| COmpson, but even this could not
make popular success. 'Lafrique'
has some pretty melodies, which are
pleasant and taking. but the whole
thing lacks originality. The opera la
borS under Observation-Disclosures
of being interpreted by debutantes,
and although they are bright and
clever. they are not thoroughly at
home on the stage. The one humid
redth performance of "Esmeralda'
and of Passing Regiment" occur
red simultaneously at Madison
Square and Days on Wednesday
evening. Passing Regiment
marched off last night and on Mon
day night the production of "Odett"
take place.
The production of "Manola" at
I! Haverley's Fifth Avenue Theatre
was postponed from Wednesday to
! Saturday night, when it was re-
ceived by a large and apppreciative
audience.

a report this afternoon that there
was not sufficient testimony to sus-

that the mayor allows and defends
open gambling houses, aud express
the conviction that the police
authorities protect gamblers in open

Some Things Money Can't Buy.

Some boys and girls have an idea
that money can do almost anything,
but this is a mistake. Money, it is
true, can do a great deal, but it can
not do everything. l could name
you a thousand things it can not
buy. 1t was meant for good, and
it is a good thing to have, but all
that depends on how it is used. If
used wrongly, it is an injury rather
than benefit. Beyond sll doubt,
however, there are many things
better than it is, and which it can
not purchase, no matter how much
we may have of it.
If a man has not a good educa-
ton, all his money can not buy it
for him. He can scarcely ever
make up for his early waste of OPP
portunities. He may say, as / have
heard men saying, 81 would give
all | have if | only had a good edu-
cation and a we'll trained mind; but
he will say it in vain. His money
alone can't obtain i.
Neither will wealth itself give a
man or a woman good manners.
Nothing, next to good health, is
of more importance than easy, self
possessed, graceful manners. But
they can't be had for mere money.
A man who is what is called
"shoddy," who has not taste and
correct manners, will never buy
them, though he would, no doubt,
like it. They are not to be had in
the market They are nowhere for
sale. You might as well try to buy
sky, or cloud, or sunbeams.
Money can't purchase good con-
science. IF a poor man, or boy,
or a girl-any one-has clear con
science that gives off tone like a
sound bell when touched by ham.
mer, then be sure he is vastly richer
than the millionaire who does not
possess such a conscience. Good
principles are better than gold. AL
the gold of Golconda couldn't buy
them for man who hasn't them
