Mr. Lewis Morrison's rendition of
"Faust' at Hermann's Bioad Street
Theatre on Saturday evening last was q
decided success. The play was put on ih
first-ciass manner, and the costumes,
scenic effects and cast were such that
they called fol tn admiration and frequent
applause from the large audience who
witnessed the production. Mr.. Morrison
is an actor OF fine abilities, and as Sc, n
In he play he certainly shows to advan-
tag. The Philadelphia Ledger says:
"Ihe Bro ken scene was remarkably
vel managed by the aid OF electri, and
other lights and profusion OF fireworks
unusual upon the stage. Mr.. Morrison
has good supporting company and gives

The Freie Presse had the follow !
editorial last Friday:
Yesterday George p. Mckee and John
j. Dougherty were nominated by the
levy court for county tax collectors.
Both gentlemen are perfectly competent
to fill the post, and we are especially
gratifed that Mr.. Dougherty, who has
been opposed on so many sides, at last
receives reward for tho services he has
untiringly performed for his party.
There is one who, after yesterday,
must see the end OF his political career
drawing nigh. Promises that he did
not keep mark him; his official career
is one smelling of Doodle and the organ
OF his own party has frequently de-
nounced him as personally unfit for the
ONCE TO which he was some time ago re-
elected. 1t wonld be superiluous to
name him. Everybody knows him. He
could not procure this time for his
creatures the office of tax collector
which he had promised them. Even in
political life it is necessary either TO
keep promises or not to make them.
Senator John P. Donahoe, Mr.. Patrick
Neary and Mr.. William Herbert have
our best congratulations that they have
attained their object. 1t is to be hoped
that they will succeed in rendering this
vanquished political hypoorite forever
innOcuous.
