INV Partner"

Too many of our people missed q most
enjoyable entertainment last evening, for
Mr.. Wsssells company played BARLEY
Campbells my Partner" in very excel
lent style. There was not poor part, or a
poorly taken part in the drama, and appar-
emily not u person in the audience who was
not delighted.
Mr.. Vessels played Joe with dramatic
force and artistic strength deserving high
praise. Mr.. Chappelle was very good as
Ned, as was Mr.. Caine as the villain
Scraggs; Mr.. Murphy made most anus
ing success of the part OF Major Britt, the
California politician, while Wing Lee. the
Chinaman, taken by Mr.. Il. A. Graham,
was one Of the hits Of the evening, true to
nature without stage exaggeration.
The ladies' were equally good; Miss
Owen displayed much emotional power
and ability as iiary Brandon, Miss
Belle Douglas, was, as ever, capital,
earning the applause and laughter she
gained as Posie Rutland, and Miss Dar-
ragle did we'll as Grace. We have nothing
but praise for last evenings work. The
play itself was one of the best ever seen
here, the scene being laid in California
mining camp.
To night the company close their short
season with the strong melo.drama "The
Strangers of Paris" and it should draw 4
large house.

THREE MEN REPORTED DEAD

ACKNOWLEDGMENT Wires Down and
Particulars Unobtainable-The Shock
Felt Twenty Miles Away.

PTTTsBURG, Nov. GA terrific explosion OF
nitro4glycerine occurred about half-past :
o'clock in the morning in the Delaware Tor
pedo company's storehouse az Shannopin, the
well known oil and gas field some seventeen
miles southwest Of this city.
Three men are said to have been killed, but
other reports do not confirm this, and say
that no one was near the building at the
time.
The telephone and telegraph lines were
torn down by the explosion, and details oil
the affair are difficult TO secure. 1t is re
ported that quite a number of well houses
were destroyed, besides some shanties occu'
pied by well drillers.
The force of the explosion was terrific, be
ing felt in this city and Allegheny and fol-
twenty miles around. At points along the
Ohio river, including Sewickley and other
boroughs, there was panic among the PEG
pie, and many Of them rushed out OF then
houses in their night clothes, under the i'm.
preston that they had experienced a shocb
from an earthquake.
In some instances glass was broken ID
houses ten or twelve miles distant from the
scene Of the explosion. The city telephones
were kept busy for hours answering in
quiries whether or not there had been an
earthquake or an explosion
The cause of the explosion has not been as.
certained. The magazine belonged to the
Delaware Torpedo company, and their loss
will be 81, 0)0 or more.

The Tagblatt heads an article with the
words attributed to Frederick the Great:
"Gazetten sollen NIGHT geniret werden," and
