miserable creature as Farnsworth do

PHANTOM SONG.
BYBAYARD. TAYLOR.

BY BAYARDs TAYLOR.
They sing in tones as glad as eyer
Thesongs she loved to hear,
They braid the rose in summer garlands
Whose flowers to her were dear
And still her otsteps in the passage.
Her bushes at the door, EEK.
Her timid words of maiden welcome
Come back to me once more
And all forgetful of my sorrow,
Unmindful of my pain,
l think she has but newly left me
And soon will come again.
She stays without, perchance, m oment,
70 dress her dark brown hair;
l hear the rustic of her garments,
Her light step on the stair!
oh, futtering heart, control thy tumult.
Lest eyes profane should see
My cheeks betray the rush of rapture
Her coming brings to me.
She tarries long; but 10! whisper
Beyond the open door;
And gliding through the quiet sunshine
A shadow on the floor.
All! tbs the whispering pine that calls me,
The vine whose shadow strays;
And my patient heart must still await her
Nor chide her long delays.
But my heart grows sick with weary waiting
AS many a time before;
Her foot is ever at the threshold,
Yet never passes DER.

We are reliably informed that the
title to a great many lots in Terry is
in dispute and numerous lawsuits
may be expected in consequence. The
reason seems to be that great many
purchasers of lots there have neglected
to have their deeds recorded, errone-
ously thinking that possession of the
deed was sufficient to secure their
title, and that, through the negligence,
or worse, Of our former clerk OF pro-
bate court, large number OF these
lots were sold twice and probably
three times, and il is impossible for
Judge Staehle to tell, by his records,
whether lot has been sold OF not,
many of the lots that have been sold
not having been marked off the map.
Owners Of Terry property will greatly
benefit themselves by Immediately
sending their deeds to the county re-
corder for record, thus insuring them
selves against the loss Of their property.

Things Theatrical.

The first of the "only" dramas,
"0nly a Farmers Daughter" was
presented to quite large audience at
the rink last night; the play is built
on the flimsiest fabric known to the
play wright's art; that Of embodying
the major and most exciting portions
of the play In a dream, which is
brought to very tame and subsiding
awakening in the last act, making the
audience feel as though they had been
badly sold throughout the whole
piece. IL there is any merit in the
use OF any such groundwork for play
1t needed a better troupe than that of
last night to bring it to the surface,
but II Is doubtful II the Wallaclks
could make much more ofthe great
est American play" than was evolved
last night, There are few good peo-
pie in the company. Blanche Cur
tisse, the star, has reasonable preten-
sions to her claim Of being a stage
beauty, and in addition TO being a
good dresser Is very pleasing actress.
Next to her comes Beatrice Ambergh,
who is a vivacious soubrette, and was
quite captivating in her part OF Molly.
Eta Frank, rs the farmers daughter,
was strictly attentive TO her lilies and
stage business, but lacked emotion In
lhe. most heart breaking scenes. OF
the male parts, Stoddard, In the
dual part Of Hartley and Bartram
was good, though slightly indistlnct
In his utterances. Gollan, who
had what should have been the lead
ing part was veritable stick and un-
worthy Of mention. Rourke as
Sammy Green was excellent, and his
scenes with Molly went far toward re-
deeming the performance from medi.
ocrity. Little Minnie Girvin was
good as children go but painfully
studied In all her speeches. In n bet.
ter play II would perhaps be possible
for the company-some members OF
II at least-to achieve distinction, but
they are too heavily handicapped In
