AT THE THEATRE.
"Faust" by the Milan Opera Company
A Splendid Presentation.

d" Faust" by the Milan Opera COMPANY
A Splendid Presentation.
Mile. Romeldi and Sgnor MOntegriffo
were accorded an enthusiastic reception
upon their appearance in Gounod's opera,
"Faust," at the Theatre last night. The
brilliant presentation of ''Il TrovatOre"
on Monday night was an assurance that
the performance last night would be none
the less artistic. OF Mile. ROmeldi but
little can be said to strengthen the favor
able opinions already expressed. Her
impersonatiOn of "Margherita" showed
the beautiful tlute-like quality Of
her voice to splendid advan-
tage, and her splendid acting was
greatly admired and repeatedly applaud
ed. Her execution is admirable. SignOr
MontegTifo, who was the recipient of
marked favor as "Manrico" in 'Il
Trovatore," was enthusiastically ap-
plauded as "Faust." His clear, rich
tenor voice, his almost perfect vocaliza-
ton, and his wonderful dramatic power
were brought out with admirable effect.
In the garden scene in the third act he
was recalled and presented with a beau-
tiful floral star made of white roses.
Mile. Rsmeldi in the same act won re-
peated applause. which she shared with
sgnOr MOntegriffa in the duet. At the
close of the act she was thrown beau
tiful bouquet of roses.
Mile. Morse as 'sSiebel," Signor Bologna
as "MephistOfele'' and Signor Won Xini as
"ValentinO" sung and acted with ad-
mirable eject.
The company is well organized and its
excellent Interpretation is one OF its chief
merits. The orchestration is fine, al
though at times, the basses were some
what too heavy and almost entirely
drowned the vocaiizati0n.
The audience last night was larger than
on Monday night, and was enthused with
the performance. Tonight DOnizettPs
"Lucia'' will be sung. with Mile. Ro-
meldi as Lucia" and signOr MontegriffO
as "Edgardo." The engagement will
close tomorrow night with Flotow's

THE THUKDERBoLr RACES.
Events Yesterday at the Gentlemen's
Driving Park.

The races at the Gentlemen's Driving
Park at Thunderbolt yesterday were wit
messed by a number of the lovers OF
turf sports, although the attendance was
not as large as was expected, the threat
enIng appearance of the weather, aggra-
waited by occasional showers of rain, hav-
ing deferred several parties from visiting
the course.
Three races were made. The first race
was a trotting race of mile heats, the
best three in five to harness, to win
purse Of $50 The entries were the bay
gelding Jose" by Joe Cosman; the white
geldlng "White Chief" by Miss Nellie
Burke, and the s0rrel gelding "Susong,"
by W. T. Birch. The race was won by
"JOse" in the following time: First heat,
3m. 9Hs.; second heat, 3m.; third heat,
3m. lbs. ''SusOpg" came in second and
White Chief" third.
The second race consisted of half-mile
heats IN running race, best two in three.
for purse Of $50-S40 for the first and $40
to the second. The following is the time
made by each of the respective horses:
Agnes Mckay, first heat, / minute and
1 second. Second heat, l minute.
Transit came in second best and Little
Ned third.
The third race, with greyhounds and
horse on a dash OF One-half mile, was
particularly fine, and elected rounds of
applause for Miss Nellie Burke, whose
troupe of educated dogs and horses was
greatly admired. One of the older dogs
in the race showed disposition to take
the lead by leaping from the track and
running across the corners, so to speak,
and in that way keeping himself ahead OF
his competitors. The arttul practices OF
the old fellow created a great deal of
amusement, as it was apparent, even 10
casual observer, that if he had followed
the track, as his competitors did, he would
have been left far in the rear. In view of
the amusement which is afforded by these
entertainments, it is a matter OF surprise
that the energy of the lessees in fitting up
the track for the lovers OF the turf is not
better appreciated, or, at least, more
literally patronized.

THE ARTEsIAN WELL.
Water Flowing from a Depth OF 54O
Feet

Water Flowing from a Depth OF 54O
Feet.
A number of persons visited the arte-
sian well yesterday morning where
hands were employed during the morn
ing digging an excavation about three
feet in depth around the top section
OF the iron pipe, IN which water had risen
to within about IL inches from the sur
face. After the excavation was finished
a hole about the diameter of cigar was
drilled into the 2-inch pipe about Is
water in the pipe, when a stream
of cool, clear water gushed forth,
striking the earth about IS inches
away, where a second pipe was quickly
laid in a trench and the flow carried of
into a surface well which was dug about
two weeks ago. A NEWS reporter asked
Contractor Mulligan if he intended TO
bore any deeper. Mr.. Mulligan replied
that by going deeper more force might be
obtained. but that two or three physicians
who examined the water had advised the
abandonment OF the idea Of going deeper
for the reason that the water was of
superior quality, and its flow might be
sacrificed or lost for a greater flow Of an
inferior quality of water. Whether the
promoters of the enterprise would order
the well su>k deeper or not he was
unprepared to say.
The well has now been sunk to a depth
OF ABOUT 740 feet. Three hundred and
fifty feet of the lower portion is through
solid rock. whence the water rises into
the twO-inch diameter iron tubing leading
to the surface.
The water eifervesces when first caught
In glass, and is apparently cOlOrless and
Yields no sediment. If the owners shall
decide not to have the well sunk deeper,
the excavation about the mouth
will be enclosed with brick, and the
pipe furnished with a faucet to turn
the stream Of water off or on at will.
The work Of boring was first commenced
Nov. A. but the application of steam as a
motive power to the drill was not made
until about two weeks ago.

Burglars Plumber a whitaker Street
House and Escape With Their Booty.
The gangs Of thieves and marauders
which infested the southern suburbs oi the
city during the winter, have again begun
operations. The house of MIR. CD. Shore.
on Whitaker street, south of Anderson,
was entered late Monday night or early
Yesterday morning, and robbed of a guam
tity Of clothing, iewelry, and about $12 IN
money. Mr.. Shore is employed at
Montgomery, and was absent
from home. The only occupants of th q
house were Mrs. Shore and her sister.
Mrs. Shore was awakened by a noise in
her room and saw man sitting on the
edge Of the bed. She sprang up and
rushed to the window, screaming. The
thief made a grab at her and threw her to
the floor. Her screams were heard across
the street and brought three car conductors
who were sleeping in an adjoining house
to her rescue. Before they arrived the
thief had got out of the back door and
escaped. carrying with him his plumber.
Mrs. Shore was unable to give a full de-
scriDtiOn of the man, but said that he
was not negro. 1t is believed that he
had an accomplish, but up to last night
no clue TO his whereabouts had been OBJ
tanned
The frequency and bOldness with which
rObberies OF this class are committed on
the outskirts have for some time kept the
more timid people in a state of terror. An
effort was made To break up the gang, and
was partly successful, but there are still
a sufficient number to carry on the bust
ness of thieYery in most annoying
manner.
