ALBAUGH's-'TuE LADY OR THE TIGER"
Colonel McCaul's preparations for the pro-
duction of The Lady or the Tiger" at Al
baugh's Grand Opera-H House Monday evening
are of an elaborate and expensive character.
The entire scenery for the production arrived
last night from Baltimore, where the company
| presented this opera with great success the
! first three nights of the week. Colonel Nc
| Caull is most particular to have n thorough
| first night performance, and, by sending the
scenery ahead, he is enabledto have the stage
| hands have sufficient rehearsals, and therefore
the long and tedious delays between the acts,
which always prove so annoying, are done
away with. The Colonel will personally
supervise the production here Monday even
| Ing. The sale of seats has been very large,
not only for the first night, but the entire
weeks engagement. The public are no
doubt anxious to sec how Mr.. Rosenfeld dis
poses Of the tiger, TO the satisfaction of every
body, and give this favorite organization a
royal welcome.
HARRIS BIJoU-uERMINIE.
An entirely new stage effect will be seen at
Harris Bijou Theatre next week incidental to
the production of "Herminen by the Red
mund-Barry Company This novelty is what
is termed the Redmund. Barry Act Drop and by
Its use the usual tedious waits between acts
are entirely dispensed with and the action OF
the play continued unbroken. Upon the con-
clusion Of each act, the usual drop curtain
falls and all the lights In the house are extin-
guished. The curtain then rises on the new
illuminated act drop upon which are shown
the events which are supposed to transpire be-
tween the acts. The characters of the drama
are seen carrying out their roles in the plot
like the phantom figures OF dream. The
theatre curtain then falls again, the lights are
turned up and the next act Immediately COM
mences. Apart from the strong features of the
piece, this new act drop will doubtless prove n
strong drawing attraction. The novelty made
genuine hit in New York and Boston aud
Will doubtless do the same here.

named 'The Shaw" is only fifteen feet
from stem to stern, with four feet breadth

ducking to prevent swamping by heavy
seas, and carries but one small sail.
When Capt. Alsen commenced his peril.

CLANDESTINE MASONRY.
An Edit Against the New Scottish Ritz
Issued In Washington.

WASHINGTON, Aug. IA controversy
which is general among the Masonic fra
ternity throughout the country respecting
the Cerneau Scottish rite, has eliminated
here in the issue Of an edict by Harrison
Bingham, most wcrshipful grand master
Of Masons of the District of Colun.bia
under date Of July %, pronouncing the
Cerneau organization clandestine. and
warning all members Of that rite that they
are liable to discipline from the grand
lodge unless they at once withdraw from
said Cerneau body. --
The main reason for the edict, aside
from other questions in the Scottish rite
controversy, is stated to be that the Ger
neau organization has established rela-
tions of amity and Masonic correspond
ence with the grand orient of France, the
governing body Of Masons in that coun-
try, which is under the ban of at least
every English speaking grand lodge in
the world. because the grand orient has
stricken the name Of God from its ritu.

The grand lodges Of this country, il is
said, have an additional grievance against
the grand orient of France because the
latter persists in recognizing the negro
grand lodges OF the United States.

A Fire at Eagle Iark.

LEADvlLE, Aug. News has reached
here from Red Cliff to the effect that the
charcoal kilns at Pardo, in Eagle park,
have been destroyed by fire. The plat
forms where the wood was fed into the
kllns had become very dry and were
saturated with tar. In some way fire was
communicated with the platforms and it
ran along as lhoug the timbers were soaked
with kerosene. Some men who were in
side OF kiln filling it with wood had a
narrow escape, and were quite severely
scorched in getting out OF their perilous
position. In the efforts to save the lives
OF these men everything else was neglect
ed for the moment, and wagon contain
ing $ 70 worth of provisions was burned,
together with another which was loaded
with charcoal. Four kilns out OF the eight
at that place were ruined, and some 4 900
bushels OF charcoal and seventy-five cords
OF wood were destroyed. The loss of the
kilns falls on H. d. McAlIister, OF Lead
vile, and that of the wood on NJ. ?. Nc
Gtee, OF Pardo. The total loss will prob
ably reach $4,000.

Mrs. Mcfarland Has a Poor Opinion OF
Her Brother in Law.

OMAHA, July 3l.--Mrs. Mcfarland, OF
Philadelphia, is by no means proud OF
her distinguished military brother in law,
Lieut.. Col. Fletcher, ex-commandant at
Fort Omaha. She took the stand before
the court martial at the fort yesterday and
told what time she had Of it when she
visited her sister at the fort last June.
The colonel, she said, accused his wife Of
infidelity repeatedly in her presence, and
abused her after most ungallant and un-
soldierly fashion, The colonel's lawyer
had ali the reporters dismissed from the
room, and then asked Mrs. Mcfarland
whether she had not been unduly inti-
mate with some Omaha citizens during
her stay here. The pretty little woman's
big blue ewes blazed with Indignation as
she replied that her conduct had been
above suspicion.
