decidedly artistic one. 10 fact the audi
snce was so pleased with him last evening
that he was called before the curtain at
the end of the first and second acts aud
when the curtain went down on the third
act Mr.. Beers was compelled to re-sppear
three times and received storm OF ap-
plsuse each time. -. -,

ceeded in putting the audience in the best
of humor at various times. They both did
their work well. Miss Jessie Storey is q
beautiful little lady and an actress of unu-
sdsl ability, and her rendition OF the role
Of Hattie Salisbury" was splendid. She
shared honors with Mr. Beers. Mr.. Chas

The piece, ss has been frequently an.

man, aud even the most fsstidious lady
can find no fault with one word or action
A matinee will be given this

In Consuming Night Soil by Fire Made
Last Night.
Last evening Superintendent Dsrrah, OF
the Gas Works, continued his experiments
in consuming night soil. The former ex.
periments made at the Gas Works, &C
counts OF which were publ shed in the
REGISTER at the time, proved the expert
ment to be q success, and last night set.
tied it permanently. By permission
OF Manager Reister, Of the Belmont mill,
pudding furnace was fired up and q
barrel Of soil mixed equally with slack was
thrown in aRd was entirely consumed in
forty minutes Another barrel of soil un-
mixed was then thrown in on top Of the
ashes and was consumed an hour. The fur.
mace was then cleaned out and two
shovelsful Of fine coke thrown in first on
the bottom OF the furnace, upon which an.
other barrel of soil was thrown. This was
burned In an hour and twenty minutes.
This clearly demonstrates that night soil
