tinuo dav aud evening till after the election.
According to the present programme Mr.,
Cleveland will be formally Endorsed" by the
society to keep is record good; but this action
will be followed by the wholesale resignation
of member. who will work heartily for General
Butler until in December, when they will again
Join Tammany Hall. The prospect, of course
is not one calculated TO give the opponents Of
Cleveland and Hendricks any particular pain.
IT is only a case of Democrats falling out and
honest men coming by their own.

Coming Attractions.

Next Monday night the Madison
Square Theatre Company will present
the beautiful domestic drama, "Young
Mrs. Winthrop" at the Opera House,
and the well Unknown reputation of the
company, with the great moral lesson
Taught by the refined drama, should
insure crowded house. The play
teaches husbands not TO allow even
business considerations to cause them
to forget those duties which ere due the
home circle, and it teaches wives that
after all the world of fashion and
gaiety has nothing to take the place OF
home ties and associations. Few can
witness this realistic picture of life
with dry eyes, and It has very appro.
priately been styled "a sermon from
the stage"
Friday evening Flora Moore's Bunch
OF Keys" Company will hold the boards
at the Opera House, and all who wish
to spend an evening of mirth, will be
sure to be present.
