rArsr AND MARGuERITE.

Miss Celia Alsberg and Mr.. Lewis Nor
rison will essay respectively Marguerite
and "MephistO" in Faust and Mar
guerite" at the Opera House on Tuesday
an | Wednesday evenings next. The YER
sion j n use by Miss Alsberg and Mr.: Nor
rison is by DIR. Gustave Haas, u dlStln-
guiShed New York litteratteur, II has
been pronounced u remarkable piece OF
work. He has followed the outlines OF
Goethe's immortal poem, and has kept
most of the etherealism and mysticism
that surrounds the original story. He has
at the same time invested 1t with a degree
of melodramatic interest that is absolutely
essential for success in literary productions
of like caliber.
The play is divided into four acts. The
first disclOses the meeting between DR..
Faust and Mephisto, the transformation of
the former to youth, and his meeting with
Marguerite.
The second reveals the jewel scene, and
the progress of Faust in his lOve-maklng.
In the third act we see Marguerite after
her betrayal, Stunned and despised by all,

comparative triumph OF the iiend. The
last act reveals Marguerite's death in pris-
on, the remOrsc of Faust, and the final
discontinue of MephistO through the in
tervention of the spirit of Marguerite,
which is disclosed by the medium Of 4
most beautiful ''apOthesis."
Mr.. Morrison has q part that is admir-
ably fitted to him and his performance Is
said by the eastern critics to be 4 veritable
revelation, while the Marguerite of
Miss Alsberg is endorsed as Il beautiful
idylic piece of artistic acting The sup
porting company is undoubtedly one OF the
strongest before the public and the seen

I'll 1850 that the most important act OF con-
gress in reference 10 railroad construction
was passed. Stephen A. Douglass was a
champion of the measure, which was bitterly
opposed as unconstitutional by many, includ-
ing jefferson Davis. The latter, however,
finally favored the bill through compromise
which favored his own state. Owing to this,
over l55, 100000 acres OF land went toward
railroad construction. Early In railroad
building foreign capital was principally in

The railroad territory OF the United States is
larger than the area of Franco. In Mime

The state police power over railroads was
reviewed. The right 10 Interfere in instances
or extoruonate rates where there is no COM
petition was conceded, but as a rule the state
should not interfere in the management of
private property. That government which
secures the best protection TO private bust
ness is the best. A law which would require
farmers 10 sell their grain TO elevator men at
a fixed price would be absurd, yet il can be
conceived that such n law might be necessary
for time during emergency, as was, in past,
done during the French revolution. Unjust
laws have been passed in some OF the states,
notably several Western. and particularly
during the period of granger legislation

increase, before the taxes from the roads
would be enough 10 pay the state expenses.

The second Institution was the public
school, which has an important influence on
the boys life. Six hours day. five days

life, gave him training which lasted him a
life time. There were boards of education
who dared to go about hiring cheap teachers;
but they should go 10 the universities and
colleges for the best men and the best women
no matter what they cost. The third institu-
ton was his home life. where the father was
the confidential companion of the boy. where
there was large liberty, much love, aud no
hattery or scolding, where there was no room
and no furniture not free for the boy. He
believed in letting the next generation buy

The First Methodist church was we'll
filled last evening. the occasion being the
lecture of DR.. j. II. Vincent of Chautauoua
fame, before the Chautauqua union of this
city. The subject Of the lecture was THAT

nor the good boy who dies at 10. but the
average American boy who grows up. dies
at good old age and is mourned by the
world. who Is always in the way, who is
always saying and doing what he has no
business to do or say, who persecutes the
cats. the dogs, the cook and everybody In
the house. who takes TO tin horses and likes
drums, who never brushes his hair or
washes his face, who is always forgetting
every fitting thing and filling life with all
the abominable tricks he can conjure I'D, the
terror Of the parlor, the torment of the
kitchen and the nuisance of the streets. DIR.
Vincent spoke for fully an hour and half.
and good part of that time his audience
was roaring with laughter. The lecture
was full of the richest humor. bubbling
with the fun and frolic, the frankness and
tricks of That Boy" with not few witty
remarks in connection with the father and
mother and the spinster Aunt Jane who
never took to boys
The speaker drew a very beautiful ana

mothers arms, and of the dignity and honor
Of motherhood, and followed the bow into his
