some Notes of Interest About Actor
and Acting.

Some Notes oil interest About SASNoA9
and Acting.
Neil Burgess, in ''Vim,' has made a
hit in San Francisco.
Jeffreys Lewis may go to Australia
shortly on a starring tour.
That clever comedian, Bob Graham,
goes with Maggie MitchelPs company
next season.
w. E. Sheridan is shortly expected to
arrive from Australia, where he made
great artistic success.
1t is possible that the coming season
will see Agnes Robertson-Mrs. Dion
Boucicault-back on the stage.
The Dramatic Times is responsible for
the statement that Barnum and Fore
paugh have pooled their circus business
this season and are dividing territory.
Unwilling to take Boucicault's late fail
ures as a lesson, there are several dra-
matists coming out with Irish plays for
the ensuing season.
The much advertised Lillian Russell
makes her London debut next Monday
night at the Gayety Theatre in 'Nirginia
and Paul" Willie Edouin also opens in
London on the same date.
Lewis Morrison is more than sharing
the honors with Mckee Rankin in 1.-The
Corsican Brothers." at HOOley's Theatre,
Chicago. The former plays Chateau Re
naud'' and Rankin stars as the brothers
Del Franchi.
There seems to be a general revival of
'SOliver Twist for the coming season.
Bertha Welby and Louise Rial will both
attempt Nancy Sykes" and Rose Ey-
tinge VIII continue her wonderful imper-
sOnatiOn of the character.
Miss Effie Ellsler will star this season
under the management of Brooks u Dick
son in La JUSTICE" a new French play
that has been written for Bernhardt, and
which will be produced in Paris, at the
Ambigu Theatre, in October.
w. NJ. Morton and Harry Bell take the
amusing but played out comedy of 'The
Strategists'' on the road with Katie Gill
bert as the attraction. Miss Gilbert is
one of the cleverest and brightest SOU
brettes on the American stage, but it is
very doubtful if she can make money with
this play.

Democritus and the Provincial Press.
Editor HoraiRg NeigS: 1t was with pain
that l read in your paper a few days ago
certain remarks copied from one of the
provincial papers which referred dIsre-
spectfully to my esteemed friend "DemO-
critus," whom indeed the editor went so
far as TO denOminate "a Smart Aleck ="
which l presume was meant to be very
undignifed epithet.
Now. my discerning friend had merely
ventured to give expression of the general
opinion of the individual members Of the
Cotton Exchange regarding the genuine
ness of the alleged bale of new cotton,
and which he did not eXaggerate. So far
as he quoted my remarks, l may say that
he was perfectly correct.
NV sensitive friend has been extremely
depressed ever since he was termed a
..Smart Aleck' by the able provincial
editor, and the ''lOcal experts" have one
and all been on the tp-t0e Of suspense
about the proof that the bale was entirely
new cotton. which the a. p. editor promised
should be forthcoming. At last in tO-day's
paper appears the anXiOusly expected
proof. and, as promised, it is perfectly
Overwhelming.
The Calhoun County Courier says: "A
company Of Lol. Prmus Jones nelghDOrs,
consisting Of Messrs. Croker, Barbre and
others. visited his plantation, and after
diligent investigation, say that they failed
TO see any evidence of new cotton, and
thew are of the opinion that the cotton sold
for new was raised last year."
Notwithstanding this incontroyertible
evidence. my opinion. after thirty years
in the business, remains about the same,
and such | learn is also the case with my
experienced friend ''DemOcritus."
This is all very sad, but, Mr.. Editor,
/ what particularly want TO do Is TO pro-
/ test, to the best Of my ability, against the
provincial papers being allowed to pun
/ in such a facetiOus way on my name, or
/ to call my esteemed friend "DemOcritus'
/ a "Smart Aleck," or to allude otherwise
/ than reverentially to our ''local experts
/ Some of them have seen more than a hum
/ bred bales of cotton. Yours obediently,
