MAURICE E. FLYNN.

A. Mr. Maurice y. Flynn has been
discussed p good deal Of late as one OF
the stockholders in the Lclec'ric Railroad
in Richmond, il is due 10 him to state
that he had been put under a cloud TO
some extent by some OF the local pOIilcal
scandals ia New \ ork city politics We
do not see from the full reports in The
New York papers of Sunday of the in
vestigation in which Mr. Flynn appeared
as witness that there i anything
against him except that he was involved
by Others in some Of the political plotting
in the local affairs of the city. Ills
evidence reads clearly and frankly, and
the New York World in criticising it has
the following editorial:
1T has been the general belief that
Maurice b. Flynn was the practical boss
of the Department of Public Works IN.
der RoIIin II. Squire, and that he monop-
olized the millions of contracts given
ont by that department. Yesterday, rs
witness before the Senate Aqueduct
Committee, Mr. Flynn astonished its
members by the statement that in
twelve Or thirteen years, since 1873, the
sum total of his contract work with that
department had been under $500 900, and
that OF This lac had done less work annu-
ally under the redOubtablo Squire than
under any other commissioner, begin
ming with FilZ John Porter and ending
with General Newton
"Mr. Flynn was a ready witness His
bank boohs, public and private, old
checks and ledgers were rendered 10 the
committee, from the remote past up TO
The present hour. lie told the history of
the ThOmpsOn-Squirc letter, Of the polit.
zeal maneuvres for Mayor Grace's nomi-
nation aud OF the alleged efforts Of Mr..
Wins to buy zap Squire. lie fatty con
tIadicied the major pg,i Of the WINS tc5-
timony, and testified 10 his conversations
with Governor HI, who had told him
that he would not interfere IN local poll
tics, that he regarded it as an imperti-
hence 10 ask him what he would do in a
matter in which he hada Judicial duly 10
perform before the case was before him,
and that he should not protect Mr..
Squire or any other person who had com
mitted wrong act provided he was re-
moved in accordance with law.
The most important portion Of Flynn's
testimony is his admission that he in
dosed the Governor notes on which mon-
ey was raised for the campaign Of 1885,
and that one of them was paid out Of the
profits of an aqueduci contract in which
he had an Interest with O'Brien and
Clarke The story of these notes, while
not rejecting on Governor Hills integ-
rity, prove the mischieyous and unfouu-
nate tendency OF the whole political as
sessmcnt system"

The Voice of an Actor.

The stage is not a drawing room. You
cannot address 500 people in theatre as
you would address II few companions at
the ilreside II the tone Is not raised,
you will not be heard, and If You do not
articulate, the public will be unable 10
follow you.
So-and-so, | am well aware, has won
for himself the reputation Of q natural
actor by affecting the conversational tone.
He scarcely pronounces one word louder
than another; he lets the ends of his
phrases sink; hesitates, abridges, pretends
to he at loss for words, repeats his
words two or three times over, drawls
along for ten minutes, and then hurries
his delivery in order to arrive mt the eff
feet And rs the public is like Panurges
sheep, even when it happens not to under
stand, il cxclaims: Dear me- how very
naturall lie seems n if he were talking
with his feet on his fender by his own fire
side What an actor | did not hear
what he said-did you?-but how very
naturally he said itp'-C. Coquelin in
