ADJUSTMENTS.
Salvini in Gladiator at the Grand--
Notes.

NOteS.
An audience little more than half filling
the Grand opera house greeted the famed
Salyinl in the Gladiator, with (which he
opened his engagement last night. This
play is not considered one of his greatest
parts still it presented opportunities for
very vivid and powerful acting. Salvini
talks in Italian but he acts in English.
Though his language is foreign the text is
understood in the varying lights and shades
OF feeling expressed in the changing atti-
Iude and expression of the actor, almost as
clearly as IL spoken in familiar tongue. His
rich voice has such persuasive sound and
nicely of meditation that it seems to speak
in universal language. His reading last
night was surprisingly beautiful, and his
action free from any suspicion of staginess.
Ii is in the artistic finish of his acting, and
IN the apt and lifting use of vocal tone that
Salvini eXcels. A line opportunity for an
exhibition of the absolute finish of the de-
tail of his art was given to the actor last
night in the scene in FlaYian's house, where
he stands silent for a long time. while
the empress talks TO Neodamia. In other
hands this scene would have been very
tame, but though he does not utter a
single word Salvini makes himself the most
stage. So in the scene in the arena the &C
ton and expression are marvelously lifted
to the words. The exhibition of disgust
when he finds that he is 10 be mere exc
cutioner instead of lion slayer, the flash
of surprise when he recognizes the captive
girl as the one he had once saved from the
malice of the empress. and the terrible
mlngling OF grief and rage when be dscOy-
ers that the girl he is about to STAY is his
long lost dapghter-his voice now stirring
as trumpet, now melting as
dute-swaying the audience at
will. now exciting thunders of
applause, now holding them rigid
in GREATNESS suspense-all was delin-
Gated with fullness and finish that lett
nothing more to be asked for. The COM
pany supporting Salvini is unusually good.
The younger Salvini plays the part of the
Roman patrician with tender. manly dig
nifty. His actidg is marked by great discre-
ton, and i'm the scene of the interrupted
marriage was marked by great intensity.
Mrs. Augusta Foster looked the part of the
Roman empress handsomely and acted 1t
admirably. Miss Viola Allen was the re-
cipient of great deal of applause from the
audience for her graceful and finished per-
sonation of Neodamia. Tonight the
Outlaw" will be played, which is one of
Salvini's strong parts.
This morning at o'clock the sale of seats
for the first three nights and the Wednesday
matinee of the Boston Ideals will open al
the box Office of the Grand, tho repertoire
being: Monday, ''Adna" new; Tuesday,
Maid of Honor new; Wednesday matt

engagement in ST. Paul april Is, 10 and

MANSIONS IN SIGHT.
p. HI. KelIy and Jim Hill TO Build
on ST. Anthony Hill,

1t now looks as though Summit avenue
or st, Anthony hill was destined to become
perch on which the majority, if not all,
of st. Paul capitalists will build their
homes. The avenue for stretch of two
miles from Rice street. boasts of some of
the most elaborate residences in the city.
and during the summer months this street is
a study of picturesqueneSs and architectural
beauty that might have fully satisfied the
studied and fastidious tastes of Sir Walter
Fem.
There hove been two real estate transfers
recorded during the past week, which indi-
cate that st. Paul's mOneyed citizens are
beginning to look to that locality as their
future home and it is quite probable that
within the next year two residences will be
added to the magnificent houses that line
Summit avenue that will be q great credit
to that part of the city and will act as
loadstOne to draw other wealthy seekers 10
that neighbOrhOod.
A few days ago, P. II. Kelly purchased
the Sheppard lot near the old Haupt place
and rumOr has it that he will leave his nal
ace on Dayton's bluff and draw nearer to
the heart of the city enscOnsng himself and
family in one of the richest houses in The
Northwestern metropolis. MIR. Kelly does
not admit that this fact, but gossip has it
that no other purpose than this could have
prompted him TO purchase the property.
Yesterday it leaked out that Thomas
Cuddy had purchased for Jim Hill the
Nininger and Armstrong estates. COM
prising $40 feet on Summit avenue. for
consideration bordering on 500. OO0 The
sale was made by Ii. l.. Carver The
matter was carefully guarded from the
newspapers, but at last came to the sur
face. 1t is known that the price paid for
the Armstrong property was $40. 900. In
connection with the purchase of this prop
erty it is given out that the railroad magnate
and fancier of bloOded stock will erect a
mansion there which will, in point of cost
and architectural splendor cast in the
shade any dwelling ever built in the north
west. With these two acquisitions ST.
Anthony hill will be able to sit and smile
quietly and deiantly over at her former
dangerous rival, DaytOn's bluff.

Hall.

had met to organize stone masons' union,
the latter unions assisting and directing the
organization.
Thomas Ward of the stOnecutters'
union was elected chairman and
q. A. Lafayette opened the proceedings
with an address. in which he detailed the
benefits to trade, of organization as well
the proper work and aims of trades union.
L. +. McDermott president OF the Brick
layers union spoke briefly urging the i'm
portance Of organization on the stone
masOns present. The objects of the meet
ing with the benefits and work Of the pro-
posed union were explained in the
German. French and Swedish lah-
guages by II. A. Ries. Mr.. Creuett
and Arthur Chelberg. respectfully.
AT the conclusion of the addresses, the roll
was offered for signatures. and ninety-iiye
names were secured. which is considered
remarkable success for the first attempt at
organization. There are in the neighbor-
hood Of 800 stone masOns in the city. An
election of officers was held. resulting as
follows: President, Dennis Mcdonnell; vice
president. John Simons; recording secle-
tary. Duncan Hogg; financial secretary. Eric
ISackSon; treasurer, Fred Schramm: trustees.

RIVAL TELEGRAPH COMPANIES.
Suit Against the Duluth Road by
the Western Union.

A suit was begun in the district court
yesterday which is probably the Initiation
of hard legal fight. 1t is entitled The
Western Union Telegraph company VS..
The st. Paul & Duluth Railroad company,
The North American Telegraph company
and w. II. Eustis manager of the latter.
From the papers filed it appears that the
st. Paul * Duluth is the successor to the
Lake Superior & Mississippi Railroad COM
pany. which entered into contract with
the Northwestern Telegraph company by
which the latter was given the sole right of
way for constructing q telegraph line along
the road. The Western Uninn is the sue
cessOr by purchase to the rights of the
Northwestern Telegraph company in this
contract, while the st. Paul q Duluth is the
successor to the other party. The com
plant alleges that the ST. Paul Il Duluth
has permitted the North American Tele.
graph company to distribute poles and other
material along the road, and given ii per-
mission to construct an opposition tele-
graph line, the construction of which is
about to commence. The Western Union
therefore applies for an injunction to pre-
vent the construction of the North Ameri-
can line, and asks for a Judgment of
SO, 600 for damages
