On Wednesday night, Jacquei
Kruger will appear at the Opera II oust
in =" Dreams, or Fun In a Photograph
Gallery" This is one Of the mos
entertaining and interesting plays nov
before the public, and Is He'd with fun
from the commencement until the
close. 1t is presented in the guise of a
dream, and the com zeal actions OF
some of the characters will equal that
Of many of the phantasies that passes
through the mind when the body ia
wrapped in sleep.
Next Monday night, Miss Fanny
Davenport will present Sardon's thrill
ing drama entitled "Fedora." The
New York Mirror says:
Without an exceptiop,"' Fedora
Is the strongest drama that has been
presented 10 the judgment of New
York in dozen years. " Fedora" Is q
play Of the very highest rank. In con
struction, plot, dialogue and notify, 1t
exhibits the work of a master mind. 1t
is seldom that one is made sensible of
the hush that sometimes permeates an
audience, but during the greater part
of this performance, SO remarkable was
the effect of the tension to which the
emotions of those present were put, one
could feel 1t.
The character of D." Fedora" is drawn
as only Frenc Gilman could draw it. 1t
forms strage and fascinating study.
She is fata alist-a woman with n desti.
ny. The first act Is interesting, the
second exciting, the third thrilling and
the fourth startling. Miss Davenport
eclipsed all her former efforts. 1t was
o splendidly conceived, magnificently
executed impersonatiou that thrilled
and electrified every person that wit
messed 1t.

Letter from virginia.

HINTON, w. Va February 8, 1856
This hitherto quiet little town has been
during the past week, thrown into a
state OF excitement over two notable
events. The first was the organic alton
of two town councils and their several
officers. The old board held over, owing
to Illegally In the election OF January
lat, 1888. The new or bogus council
obtained a writ of certiorari, calling
for copy of the record OF the proceed,
ings Of the old council. declaring the
election of the date aforesaid illegal,
null and void. Meanwhile the new oi
bogus c3uncil or IFS friends stole tht
records by breaking into the old coupci
| room ald stealing the record in ones
tiou. The old Mayor made complaint
and Ono OF the bogus council was
arrested ard held TO answer for fe
.0niously breaking into the council
room and carrying off the record, and
a search warrant was issued and ioul
places searched without unearthing the
books. The whole matter will be
brought before our Circuit Court ON the
9th instant.
The other startling event was The
