In the four-act comedy drama
"Solmon Isaacs," presented last
evening Miss Boyd appeared as
Kate Medland, and right we'll did
she portray the character of the
loving wife and mother. When
stricken and blindless bereft OF
husband AID Guild, her acting was
most touching. her sorrowful and
heart broken appearance, moving
many to tears; but the lady did not
betray her great talent as an emo
ticnal actress until the scene where
she discovers her lost son. Here
she gave full vent to her talents,
and before many moments had
elapsed nearly every lady in the
hall was weeping. When the cur
tain fell the rent-ur feeling of the
audience broke forth in rounds ct
applause which lasted for some
minutes. The support was excel
lent.

On Sunday afternoon the officers

across the mouth and one over the

officers made the usual inquiries
but the Chinese appeared to be
about as much surprised as any
body that the tragic circumstance
had happened in their quarter OF
the city, and some appeared awfully
sorry. As soon as the Indians got
wind Of it they came and took
away the remains and In the
evening, numbers OF the

THE nEELY MOTOR.
The Most Conplete Exhibition
Of His Wonderful Power Yet
II06N

M9Ae.
The Philadelphia papers announce
the most exccessful exhibition of
the Keely motor yet given. The
Times says: The exhibition in
cluded experiments in firing pro-
iectiles from the Keely gun, the
lifting of weights by pressure OF
vaporic ether, and the operation OF
one of the small v;bcatory engines.
After charging the generator with
less than one pint Of water, which
Keely injected into the machine
from his mouth, the inventor
turned several levers, struck a
chord to put the vibrator in tune
and announced that he had pro-
duced a motive power sufficient for
the evenings work. The generator
was not charged again during the
entire exhibition. He first trans
mitted vapor from the receiver IN
such = way as to act upon one
inch plunser, set in a steel cylinder
and supporting a powerful lever
weighing 6S2 pounds of iron. A
simple computation showed that a
power Of 10000 pounds was re-
ouired to lift the weight which
hung from the long lever. The in
slant keely made his first e1pul
sion into = small copper tube con-
nected with the cylinder, the
plunger was seen to rise, carrying
with it the enormous weight pend
ant from the long arm OF the lever.
The entertainment was concluded
with the exhibition of \ fifteen
horse power vibratory engine. set
up in a room above the ground
floor. Vapor was introduced from
the generator by = copper tube pas
sing throgh hole in the flooring.
The power was still furnished by
the original mouthfnll Of water in
jected into the machine early in the
evening. Visitors crowded around
the simble looking contrivaEce
with the most intense interest.
Kelley turned the lever, there was
a rushing sound, and in moment
the wheel began to revolve, 1t con-
tinued at uniform rate Of speed
for half an hour and all the com
biued power Of the strongest mus
eles in the audience, and the heay-
list steel levers failed to retard the
progress of the little wheel. Then
Keely reversed the wheel, stopped
it, wiped the preparation from his
brow and smiled proudly, while the
gentlemen Joined in their hearty
cheers and a tiger for what they
regarded the most complete exhibit
ton the inventor yet vouchsafed
hi. patent allies. The other pa
pers present similar accounts Of the
expiriments.
