JOHN MCCULLOUGH.
 Before a very large and delighted audience at Carll's Opera House Saturday evening John Mccullough played the role of Spartacus in the Gladiator. The play is a very powerful one, evenly constructed and consistently wrought ont. It's spectacula, and scenic requirements are, however, a little too great for the theatres Ion the road , But the audience apparently forgot all in the acting of MT Mccullough and his every word look and gesture were eagerly noticed. Hs was given an enthusiastic reception, being called before the curtain four times Joseph HaWorth carriedof the honors ot the support. The rest of the company were fair.

At WhitE ey Lake-A Skating Carnival.
 There was a large throng of skaters at Whitney Lake Saturday. The ice was in splendid condition and the weather was on the whole very suitable for the enjoyment of the pastime. All kinds of skates, old fash toned and new fashioned, were in use and all kinds of skating was done, brilliant fancy skating, good skating indifferent and poor skating and uproarious merriment was often occasioned by upsets, collisions and tumbles. There were all grades of society represented, including many representatives of the wealth and culture of the city and suburbs; also many sturdy independent school boys, whose skates were very old and time worn; but whose skating was on the whole a great success, when the straps held. Sat urday was one of the carnival days at the Lake.

 teDdaAce.
 A large and enthusiastic tempeEancs meet ing was held last night Nt feck's Grand Opera House under she auspices of the Good Sa- marltnns. Thomas orchestra discoursed music and the quartette sang number of fine selections. The president of the organi- zation, Mir. Albee, conducted the exercises. Charles H.

He held thas the drinking of spirituous or malt liquors is highly detrimental to health, and their use by healthy people as beverages was strongly condemned. He recognized their value as medicinal agent, but as used indiscrimiuately and habitusIly the most ap- palling effects are sure to follow. He appealed to those in the audience who were not drink CTS to unite in the effort to reform the inebriate. In conclusion MT. Fowler advocated the building of 8 hospital or asy- lum out of the money attained in licensing liquor saloons where the incorporate could go and receive the care and attention their condition requires After the address and singing by the B quartette Mir. Albee made characteristic speech which deeply affected the audience, and in response to his invita- tion many men and women came to the plat form and signed the pledge.
