Is an interesting and popular comedy,
and was fairly well rendered by the
Kendall company last night. Mr.. and
Mrs. Kendall, the leaders, are quite
good actors, and their support is of av-
erage merit. Tonight "M'liss," one
of the best plays of western life ever
written, will be produced, and Mrs.
Kendall will introduce several songs
and ballads. The Omaha Republican
says:
without entering into any criticism
of this dramatization of Bret Harte's
celebrated a of the Sierras, it is
sufficient to say that it was produced
in first class style. Julia Kendall, as
M'liss, received the heartiest approval
of the audience, and Mr.. H. A. Ken
dali, as Yuba Bill, was scarcely second
in his success to the star. The remain
ing characters OF the cast were all ad-
mirably sustained.
1.-The music deserves especial men
ton, the singing of Mrs. Kendall being
particularly fine. The song Hear the
Gentle Lark was sweetly rendered, and
completely captiyated the musical por-
tlon Of the audience, while the cele-
brated duet from the opera of La Mas
Cote convulsed every one from par
quette to gallery. The orchestra is
complete in all its parts; the selections
were unexceptionable. and the open air
concert before the curtain rose ex-
luisite.n

At M of the sessions of the Wyo-
ming legislature since its organization,
one of the members met a friend he
had formerly known in the east, and
told him to come around the next day
to where the legislature held forth, as
he was 'just going to show them fell
lers something they never dream't Of"
The gentleman called around the next
day as per agreement, and the member
was present and ready for action. Some
measure was under discussion and the
member, after satisfying himself that
his friend was present. arose to his feet
and exclaimed: "Mr. Speaker" The
presiding officer did not recognize him
at first, when he again said in louder
tones, ''Mr. Speaker" Being recog.
mice he proceeded: "Mr. Speaker, 1
move the previous question" With a
disdainful air the speaker shouted out:
80, sit down you id fool. that mo-
ton was carried on the first day of the
session"

The Administration In the Campaign.
REPRESENTATIVES, OF EVERY CIVIL BRANCH OF THE
GOVERNMENT, EXCEPT THE STATE DEPARTMENT,
HELPING THE REPUBLICAN CAUSE.
The statement that the administration Is not
taking an active part in the campaign, which has
been so frequently made does not seem to be borne
out by the facts. Every department OF the admin
1stration Is represented in the contest except the
State department., and Mr.. Frelinghuysen may yet
make some speecnes in his state, though 1t is not
usual for the State department to take an active
part in politics Mr.. Chandler is actively at work
In New England; Mr.. Teller is working I'm Colorado:
Mr.. Gresham spoke in New York the other night at
the business meeting and Is on his way to take
the stump in Indiana, and Mr.. Lincoln has Jpst
started out for the west Mr.. Hatton has not
taken the stump, but his paper Is vigorously sup
porting Blaine and he is doing the editorial work.
which is his particular province. The Attorney
General is out Of politics" but the department is
represented In the campaign by his assistant,
Solicitor General Philips. Besides these all the
available speaking talent OF the various depart
ments has been put on the stump for MIR. Blaine,
and there is no reason to believe 1t has been done
In opposition to Mr.. Arthurs wishes.

onS since the order OF the Pennsylvania to cut on
Baltimore and Ohio trains on October 12 The In
functions continued the trains, but they have
been run as specials, and the Baltimore and Ohio

special trains at heavy loss since october r. and
the Baltimore and Ohio were not disincl1ned to
keep them at 1t as long as they could This war Is
now, and win continue to be, as bitter as most Of
those which preceded tt. but the management OF
the details Is In the hands OF shrewd, experienced
railroad men, who study the moves as general OF
an army does his plan OF campaign. The hits Will
come hard and at unexpected times and places, and
Commissioners Fink may have to settle the dispute
at last"
