few years ago with the Payson Opera
Company, will again favor us with a
visit of two nights, next Friday and
Saturday, and a special Saturday
Matinee. She will open her season
here with "Msdame Boniface" a
brightand sparkling comedy from
the French, the music of which was
written by Lacone, the composer OF
the Marques" a comic opera played
early this season at the Casino, in
New York.
Miss Randall is surrounded by a
flrst-class company. Miss Gertrude
lloyt, formerly member of the EN-
ma Abbott company, Miss Clara
Randall, Mr.. Jas. +. Peake, who is
identified with all the productions of
rst,class opera since Caroline Rich
ing's palmy days; Mr.: Chas. +. Lang,
well-known as member of Chas
Ford's old company; Mr.. Herman
Waldo and Mr.. St. A. Daniels,
young comedian who is sure TO please
the ladies as Monsieur Boniface.

Prof. Bnrk's Eques- Curriculum,
composed OF trained horses aud po-
MES, highly entertained the audience
at the Opera House last night. To
those who have never seen horses
perform before the footlights it is
something truly wonderful. and es-
pecially is this true of Prof. Burk's
collection of trained animals, for they
manifest remarkable intelligence.
This character of entertainment is
patronized by the very best class OF
people, and is strongly recommended
by Profs. III. X. Taylor and w. S.
Ryland, of Russellville, who are well
known in this city. The horse holds
a high position in the admiration of
the people and all who want to be in
structed and entertained, should not
fail TO attend the performances this
afternoon and evening. This exhibit
ton ia not on level with the ordin-
airy horse show usually seen in a cir
Gus, but is a development of the pos
sibiities 10 be attained by years of
careful training, wherein the animals
are made TO do everything except
talk. The military drill is truly
wonderful.

Special Cable Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR.
LONDON, Nov. 20-The scene in the house of
commons yesterday was more animated than
on any previous occasion of the present autumn
sitting. Balfour's illness, although not serious
obliged him to keep in bed, but he declined to
adopt the suggestion of his colleagues that the
introduction of the land-purchase scheme
should be postponed for week. Therefore he
sent the notes which he had prepared for the
speech which he intended to make, and these
materially assisted Mr.. Madden, the solicitor
general for Ireland in his opening speech. In
consequence of the absence of Balfour matters
went more smoothly than was expected, Mr..
Madden not having the faculty of goading the
Irish members into frequent interruption like
Mr.. Balfour. Madden, who was only elected
member for Dublin university last year on the
acceptance of judgship by Mr.. Holmes, and
who was directly afterward made solicitor
general for Ireland, is a man Of sound infOrma-
ton and engaging manners, but with rather an
affected, Dundreary style of speaking, which
frequently causes amusement, especially when
he has to pronounce the names of Irish places.
His speech was attentiyelv heard, but it was
not until.it was nearly time for Gladstone to
introduce his amendment that the house was
really crowded. Then it was 80 full that many
members had to find seats in the galleries,
where also there were many strangers. Henry
George was among the visitors present. Mr..
Gladstone spoke, with animation, an hour and
half

THE PARNELL COMMISSION.
The ''Times" People Want Mr. Harring.
ton Punished for Contemnf


LONDON, Nov. 20.-The Parnell commission
resumed its sittings to-day. Attorney General
Webster, counsel for the Times, complained OF
the difficulty experienced in bringing forward
witnesses from County Kerry. He called the
judges attention to an article in the Kerry
Sentinel (Mr. Edward Harrington's paper),
which stated that ''the judges composing the
Parnen commission were showing signs OF
measles now, although at the opening Of the
inquiry they had appeared to be spotless. The
judges were creatures of the conspiracy entered
into by the government and the Times. and
were manifestly unable to veil their preju-
dices." The encouragement appealed TO the
court TO take action in the matter, as such pub
locations tended to defeat justice and amounted
to the grossest contempt.
Mr.. Reid. in behalf of Mr.. Harrington. COM
planned that no notice of charge of this char
acter had been given them and il was absolutely
impossible TO make an answer at present. He
asked that the matter be adjourned until to-
morrow. Presiding Judge Hannen and the
encouragement both agreed to this and the
matter stood over.
The examination Of witnesses was then re-
sumed. Farmer Culloty. of Castle Island,
County Kerry, testified that because he had
served notices on tenants in 1882, two men
visited him and one of them struck him with
spade and the other shot him in the leg. The
leg had TO be amputated- He was afterward
boycotted.
the nearest branch of the league was six miles
distant from his farm. He considered that the
rents throughout Kerry were too high. He
denied that the two men who attacked him
were relatives of a servant girl whom he had
wronged

SUIT GROWING OUT OF THE ALLEGED nLE0Ak
USE OF A PATENT PROCESS OF MAKING BEER.
CHICAGO, Nov. 20.-Leonard Miller and Ed
mund Holman, the former of Bavaria and the
latter of Germany, filed bill in the federal court
against the Consolidated Bunging Apparatus
Co., and George and Philip Bartholsmae for
an accounting as to profits arising from the
manufacture of beer under what is known as
the bunging apparatus process. The COM
plainants allege that they were the original
patentees of the device in 1876 and 1871 They
allege that through an error Philip and George
Bartholamae, whom they appointed as agents
in this country, had the patent issued in the
name of George Bartholamae. The complain
ants licensed the patent in this country TO the
Bartholamae's, who assigned il TO the consol-
idated company, which ceased paying royalties
in 1888. An accounting and sl50 200 damages
are demanded.

THE NEW NAVY.
Gunboat Building East and West.
\ MERRY WAR RAGING OVER TIE CONSTRUCTION
OF VESSELS FOR THE NEW NAVY.

Out Of the recent efforts of the government
to build navy has grown q rivalry between
the east and the west that occasionally bursts
forth in a somewhat spirited manner. Perhaps
the best exponent of this contest is to be found
in the construction of the two cruisers, the
Baltimore and the Charleston. The former
was begun by the Cramps, Of Philadelphia,
several months before the Union iron works,
of San Francisco, started on the latter, but the
two ships have been kept in about the same
stage of construction, so that comparisons and
criticisms as to their relative merits have been
sent back and forth to the edification of the
department and the public. At first the east
ern firms laughed at the idea of western con-
Germ undertaking to build battle-ship. but
from the present outlook it would seem that
the department did not make such great mis-
take in giving the San Francisco builders part
of the work. Although the Charleston was be-
gun some time after the Baltimore, she was
launched in July last, while the Baltimore did
not touch the water until September She is
also in much more advanced stage, the ninth
payment on her being recommended to the de-
partment last week, while there have been but
seven or eight made on the Baltimore. This
means that she will be ready for her trial some
time before the eastern-built ship.
In the meantime there is bloodless warfare
raging across the continent respecting the
strength of steel and iron, the plans of con-
struction and the designs for machinery of the
two ships.

Blake's Appointment to be Cancelled
Important Convert to Home Rule.

Special Cable Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR.
LONDON, Nov. 20.-Blake's appointment as
governor of Queensland will be Cancelled and
he will be appointed governor of Mauritius,
where there is no Irish population.
The Irish members intend to produce as re-
butting evidence in the Parnell trial, an Off
cial circular of instructions to the land league
branches, particularly strongly-worded one
against outrages in 1881, when crime was very
rife.
The return of agrarian outrages in Ireland
just issued, shows that in the quarter which
ended on the 30th of September last the num-
Der recorded was 173, of which 60 were merely
threatening letters.

Strong Against Flagman Masterson.

men arrested on suspicion yesterday, three

found who saw Eva alive. He tells an improb-
able story of his meeting with her Saturday
night in the'light of his relations to the muir

boiler adjusting the blow-off valve, and Ed

boiler. The other men were scattered through
the building. The boiler that exploded was
one of the battery of four, and in three Of the
boilers the steam-gauge indicated IS pounds
