. At the Academy OF Music.

The strong melodrAmA "Taken From
Life" was presented for the first time
In this city ut the Academy of Music,
last evening, with splendid scenery by
a hrst-class company, under the man.
agement Of Miss Phosa McAllister, and
proved one OF the best melodramas ever
seen In this city. The plot Is deep and
we'll connected through the entire five
acts, and holds the undivided attention
of the audience until the curtain drops
on the final scene. In the third act
there Is q dynamite explosion at Clerk,
enwoll prison, which Is o wonderful
piece Of mechanical effect. The bomb,
consisting of keg, is set by the prison
walls aud ut o preconcerted signal ex-
plodes, tearing away the wall and fll.
ing the stage with cartload of bricks
and rubbish. The scene is realistic and
startling, but not In way dangerous.
In the fourth act a:horse is introduced,
adding greatly to Its effects.
The character of Kate DENLY Is very
ably sustained by MissP Phosa McA lister,
who Is pleasing, pains-taking artist.
Her portrayal of the passions was ex-
cellent, and she won the favor Of the
audience from the time she first made
her appearance rs the sister of John
Denby. Mr.. II. 8. Duhield, as Walter
Lee, an artist, who becomes the hus-
band of Kate DENLY, has strong part,
but he proved himself fully equal to
Its many difficult requirements, and
presented 1t In . manner which won
the applause of the audience several
times.
The character Of Philip Rsdlsy, the
villain, was taken in an excellent man
ner by Mr.. W. FL. Stuart, who por.
trayed 1t In such life like way that
while the audience applAuded his fine
acting there were Kisses mingled with
the applause. Mr.. Edward Sylvester,
rs Joe Gallon, the trainer, was one OF
the best delineators of old man charac-
ters that has ever appeared In this city
His every action 10 that of o coarse
illiterate old man Of 70, and no one &C
see him on the stage would suppose fol
moment that he Is . young, fne.lo0k.
Ing man.
The character Of Jack, the stable
boy, was taken by Little Ada Jones.
who Is we'll known and is q general
favorite In this city. She introduces Q
song which was twice encored, and sl
| the close Of the aot she, with the Other
members Of the company who appeared
In 1t, were called before the curtain
aud greeted with q storm OF applause.
Her acting was also excellent, and the
day will no doubt come when Ada will
occupy position ut the head of the
| profession of her choice.
Each member has been selected for
his or her special aptitude for the char
acter for which he OF she is cast, and
the result Is smoothly running, well
acted, interesting play. 1t will be pre-
aented for the last time this evening
and the house should be crowded,

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
why the Left Hand should be Trained Ne
Well rs It's More Favored Mate.

w ~ Nv ~ II NhHNs#H HA'N
Well rs It's More Favored Mate.
One writer has asked the question:
"Why should not hands be trained like
eyes, giving a free field to each. and
no favor to either? The antiquity and
universally of the preference arc
enough to cause suspicion that it has
10Y got into the blood, and is no!
likely to be easily eradicated.
That the left hand may be educated
to an efficiency equal to that of tho
right has been repeatedly proven.
Whoever listened to the charming mu-
sic from a violin in the hands of OLE
Bull. will remember with what won-
derful skill he manipulated the strings
of his instrument with the thumb and
fingers of his left hand. Our most
celebrated musicians, by long years Of
study and practice, are enabled to Use
the left hand with equal ease and pro-
iiciency As the right. In fact, many Of
the most difficult parts in instrumental
music are performed with the left
hand.
Certainly nothing would be lost by
any one who was able TO use the lcf!
hand, for many things which are now
done only by the right. Then. in case
Of any casualty VIII ch should deprive
one Of the use of his right hand, i,
would not necessitate the tedious and
often unsuccessful effort of educating
the left hand to perform the ordinary
W ,rk of life.
The education of the left hand will.
the right should be ~commepRea
e lde, and IS worthE early
oi the considers
oi q 80 having Che training OF
\ oulh 70 their care Golden htt,c.
