Shaun kllue.

Mr.. Joseph Murphy is engaged to appear at
the Grand Opera House next Thursday even
ing in his popular play 'Shaun Rhue." The
Brooklyn Eagle says: "Shaun Rhue," in
which Mr.. Joseph Murphy appeared last night
AT the Park Theater before large and de-
lighted audience is much more interesting
piece than kerry Cow" its companion
drama. 1t has stronger plot, contains more
of humor, is brighter in wit and dialogue,
and its situations and climaxes are more
thrilling and exciting. Mr.. Nurphy's Imper-
sonations of the dual role of Larry Donopan
and Shaun was thoroughly artistic, his unctu-
Gus acting and quaint speeches awakening
the liveliest hilarity, while his singing OF the
touching bsllsd "a Handful of Earth" drew
tears from many eyes.

Mother Stewart with the .sBoys."

Mother Stewart by request and according
to appointment, addressed about twenty-five
of the newsboys and bootblacks of the city
yesterday afternoon in the lecture-room of
the Second Presbyterian church.
She took as the basis of her remarks the
passage, "There is a way that seemeth right
unto man, but the end thereof is DEATH"
With her first words she enlisted the atten-
lion of her hearers, and as she proceeded she
made her talk intensely interesting by intro
ducing her illustrated lecture which she calls
johnnie Greco"
By means of this she very effectively ap-
pealed to the feelings and hearts OF the boys,
aud We trust made lasting impressions on
each mind
The service was closed by a unanimous
vote of thanks to Mother Stewart for her in
reresting talk, and an invitation to come
again and often, and finally Joined with her
in the recitation of the Lords prayer

A GLoBE-REPUBLIc reporter talked to
prominent Democrat in thiscity this morning,
who is also a member OF the Democratic Cen
tral Committee. He said that the Democrats
had taken no steps whatever toward the nom-
ination of a ticket for the spring election;
that no meeting of the COM
nittee had yet been held and
would not be until Mayor Constantine gives
the signal. He said that although John
Kinnane is the chairman OF the committee, he
will do nothing until Constantine says SO.
He thought the committee would probably
not meet until after the Republican con-
vention, for more than one reason, the
principal of which is that if Constantine has
any idea o. coming out again for Mayor, he
will want the meeting and convention late,
in order that the Republicans can have but
little time to blast him. Mayor Constantine
will say nothing in regard to the election.

LITERARY NOTES.

Washington is fast growing in the esteem
of tourists, to be one of the most beautiful
capitals of the world, and the drift of literary
and fashionable people towards it, as a win
ter resort, is giving it q new social import
ance aside from its political interest In line
with the new development is the growth OF
domestic architecture that gives it much of
its external character. An interesting paper,
giving "a Glimpse OF Some Washington
Homes" in their exterior and interior archi-
lecture, has been prepared for Harper's Maga-
zine by Mr.. Z. W. Lightner, and appears in
the March issue, now before US. Among the
homes illustrated are those OF Senator
Pendleton, Justice Stanley Matthews, W. l..
Payne, and other notables.
The March Century will contain an article
on the Soudan, written by Gen. R. E. Colston,
formerly of the Confederate army, and later
on the general staff of the Egyptian army.
In the latter service he commanded two eIpe-
ditions Of exploration In the Soudan, travelling
on all the principal caravan routes, and
spending two years in the towns and among
the tribes which are frequently mentioned in
connection with FL Mahdi's rebellion. The
article will be illustrated with more than
twenty pictures. {
"The Brain of Man: its Architecture and
Requirements" is the title of a paper which
DR.. A. L. Ranney, OF New York, contributes
to the March Harper's, just received and for
sale at Pierce's. This is = thoroughly scien-
ti6c, yet highly popular, presentation OF the
latest knowledge Of the brain, which should
interest every one who has brain. There is
nothing more marvellous than the recent
progress Ct science in this direction, and a
number of diagrams help to make clear to
the reader hsw far sciepnsts believe in the
localization of function, and to what extent
phrenology has scientific basis.

scented this morning,
On the opening of court and by
consent of all parties, Mr. Nav
plead guilty To manslaughter, and
asked permission, to produce cyi.
dence sufficient to prove justifica.
tion, and sought moderation in the
Judgment of the court, which was
consented TO.
The evidence was of such O char
setter as was not presentable to the
press, bnt. it conclusively satisfied
the courts mind OF the guilt of adui.
terry, and the repeated attempts of
Mr.. May to compromise the matter
with his family, and the request that
Dr.. Smiths visits 10 his house cease.
The court, on the conclusion Of
the evidence, requested Mr.. May to
arise, and, after commenting on the
Trial, asked what he had to say why
sentence should not be pronounced.
Mr.. May said III have nothing
to say. l regret what ] did-whst

THANKSGIVING Proclamation.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-The follow
ing proclamation was isaued by
President Cleveland.
PROCLAMATION.
The American people have always
abundant cause to be thankful to
Almighty God, whose watchful care
and guiding hand have been mani
Tested in every stage of their nation
al life, guarding and protecting them
in time of peril and safety, leading
them in the hour of danger and
darkness. 1t is fitting and proper
that nation thus favored should on
one day in every year, for that pur-
pose especially appointed, publicly
acknowledge the goodness of God
and return thanks to Him for all
His gracious gifts.
Therefore /, Grover Cleveland, dc
hereby designate and set apart
Thursday, the Goth day of Novem Der
instant, as day Of public thanks
giving and PRAYER, and do invoke
the observance of the same by all
the people of the land. On that day
let all public business be suspended
and let the people assemble in their
usual places OF worship, and with
prayer and songs of praise devoutly
testify their gratitude the Glver OF
every good and perfect gift for all
that He has done for US in the year
that has passed, for our preservation
as a united nation and for our de-
liverance from the shock and danger
of political convulsion; for the bless
ingo of peace and for our safety and
quiet, while wars and rumors of
wars have a2itated and affected
other nations of the earth; for our
security against the scourge of pes
thence which in other lands has
claimed the dead by thousands and
filed the streets with mourners; for
plenteous crops which rewarded the
labor of the husbandmen and in
creased our nations wealth, and for
the contentment throughout our Dor
ders which follows in the train Of
prosperity and abundance. And let
there also be, on this day set apart,
re union of families, sanctified and
chastened by tender memories and
associations; and let the sweet in
tercourse of friends with pleasant
"reminiscences renew the ties of af-
lection and strengthen the bonds Of
kindly feeling. And let us by
no means forget while we give
thanks and enjoythe comforts which
have crowned our labors, that truly
grateful hearts are inclined to do
acts Of charity and that a kind and
thoughtful remembrance of the poor
will dou bic the pleasures of our con-
dition and render our praise and
thanksgiving more acceptable in the
sight OF the Lord.
