At every pause the multitude vigorously sp
plauded. Mr. Cleveland spoke in a clear,
strong voice, and could be distinctly heard
BY ali within reasonable distance. He con
cluded his address at 1888 p m, when the
oath Office was administered by Chief Jus
tice Waite.
But little time was lost after the cere
mony before the President re,entered the
Capitol, proceeded to his carriage and
thence to his quadrennial residence-the
Executive Mansion. The crowd slowly dis
appeared to swell the immense hosts now
gathering on Pennsylvania avenue.

LONDON, March 4.-The Daily News says
editorially: president Cleveland will have
he hearty sympathy of England. 1t is our
desire that there should be perpetual peace,
growing friendship and increasing commerce
Everything bringing us nearer together in
interest and feeling is gain to both, and 10
peace and freedom throughout the world.
President Clevelands inaugural address
was full OF promises and worthy his great
personal reputation.
The Standard.
The Standard speaks of the inaugural
address of President Cleveland in mourn
ful tone. 1t saws he carefully avoided
titklish issues. His speech was
manly and sensible, but void Of
distinct declaration OF Democratic
policy. There was nothing tangible in the
address, either to condemn or admire. The
Standard thinks the outlook for Cleveland s
administration gloomy, because he has not
a record to back him.
The Times.
The Times says the inaugural address is
conceived il worthy spirit but throws no
light on the main question awaiting solu
ton.

New YoRK, Oct 31.-Tho public
generally will be gratified to hear that
Miss Anderson's present engagement
at the Star Theatre has succeeded pc
cuniarily better than any of her former
engagements in this city Heretofore,
after playing at the high priced thea
tres here, she has also made engage
ments at theatres where the highest de-
mand for a seat is 75 cents. Her rep.
crtoire has always included the same
parts in which she has been seen sea
son after season, and 1t is only of late
that she has added to II RosiliRd and
Cidyice in COMEDY and Tragedy"
Therefore, when she appeared at n
Broadway theatre, where the ruling
prices for seats Is $3.50 each, large
number of people who had seen her in
the same characters before, in this city,
agreed that they would wait until she
could be seen at q West Side theatre, in
the very same plays, for half the money
To this fact can be attributed In a measure,
If not altogether, n seeming want of apprc-
citation of her efforts by the New York
public during her former engagements.
The charge for orchestra seats ut the Star
Theatre is $3.50, and at this large advance
of 81 over the customary price she is at
tracing large and appreciutiyc audiences
After she leaves New York the highest rate
that will be demanded of the public Of
other cities will be 81 a seat, fair charge
considering that her plays are now pre-
sented with much superior scenic display
than has distinguished them in the past

SOUTH YASHING TOM.

The heavy rainfall Thursday night flooded
the cellar and damaged the heating appa-
ratus at the Jefferson School building. The
primary schools were all dismissed shortly
after convening yesterday morning, as the
school rooms could not be heated. The
cobblestone roadway which is being laid on
Half street south Of Il street southwest,
owing to the lack of proper sewer facilities,
was sunk and ruined, and will have to be
reaid. The heavy northwest wind that fol-
lowed the storm prevented any alarming
rise in the Potomac. The tide this morning
was unusually low, and no fears are felt by
tic merchants along the river front of
destructive flood.
A permit for the erection Of n large and
capGcious brick warehouse on Virginia
avenue, near Four-and-a-haf street south
west, was issued to Mcssrs. Barbour q
Hamilton, the wholesale grocers and flour
merchants, yesterday. The building will be
80 feet in height, facing 1875 feet on Nlrginia
avenue, and will extend back to ID street,
depth of 100 feet. The cost of the building
will be $4,000. The site was formerly oc-
cupiod by John Miller as wood and coal
depot, and the lateral track which cutters
the tract from the main track of the Balti-
more IL Potomac RailIoad is said to have
enhanced the value of the site, as over
$4,000 was paid for It, when a piece of
ground containing the same number of feet
near the same site could have been purchased
for little over one-half the amount The
ground has heen cleared, and work will be
commenced Immediately.
Kate BresnahOn, young white woman
residing on Fourteenth street near the Long

Miss Anderson is unquestiOnably the most

pressly for her
"Comedy and Tragedy was written for
her own use by Mr.. Gilbert. Although
only in one act, occupying about three
quarters Of an hour to play, 1t could easily
have been extended to three, there being
sufficient material In the one act to warrant
its elaboration. The scene Is laid IN Paris
at the house of Cidrice, an actress, whom
the Regent of Trance is prosecuting with
his dishonorable addresses, To free herself
of him, she contrives plot against the Re-
OCnt She invites him with his dissoutc
companions to little entertainment at her
house After they arrive she sends them
of to the drawing-roOm, saying that she
will follow with the Regent, whom she de-

and feeling the want Of air asks the Ragen'
to open the windows leading into the gar
den, where she has previously concealed
her husband. She walks with his assist
ance to the sofa, where the Regent conGesses
his love for her. At this juncture the hus-
band enters through the open window aud

As she does so the guests descend from the
drawing-room in quest of her. They ask
where the Regent is and she tells them that
he has gone away. They wish to be
amused. Somebody proposes that as Cidr-
ice has wonderful talent for improvl5ing
that she entertain them in that way. She
asks them IN an impctuous aud nervous
