Bertha Evelyn Evans, who, during the past
two years, has been q great sufferer from
intiammatory rheumatism. The deceased
was widely known and her numerous friends
held her in affectionate regard for her amia-
BILE disposition and bright qualities. She
was one Of the first teachers appointed to
the Dupont pupils and their parents, and
this was testified by a procession Of about
one hundred and fifty of the little ones to
the residence to take a last farewell Of their
departed friend. They also literally strewed
the bier with floral offerings.
Rev. Lewis Zahner DID. conducted the
solemn farewell service, which was the first
of It's description performed in All Saints
church. The music of the choir was pathet-
ically rendered. The funeral cortege was
followed by a large number of friends to
the Mount Hope cemetery, where another
sympathetic incident occurred. Miss Evans
was a member of an association of young
ladies' called the Busy Ten, presided over by
Mrs. Augustus Pratt. Its purpose is to aid
in any charitable work. The members had
prepared their departed sisters grave by
decorating il prOfusely with evergreens, all
expressions being L know her was to

THE THEATERS.

For years the Vokes children were an i'm
portant feature in the great Christmas panto
mines OF London. Then Jessie, Victoria,
Rosina, Fred and Fawdon In 1868 appeared
as tie Vokes family. Victoria, the queenly
black-eyed one, was the best singer, and also
won considerable success in the more serious
drama, appearing in London as 'Amy Rob
sart." Jessie died about seven years ago,
and Fred q year ago last June Fawdon has
retired permanently from the stage. Victoria,
after an absence of several years, has re-
turnedsto America and is now making q tour
of the country at the head of her own COM
pany. But Rosina. who is to be in Omaha
this week, possesses the unusual combination
Of hilarious fun with the perfect taste and
refinement which distinguished the whole
family. 1t was the Vokes who first
established the high reputation
Of the Union Square theatre, New YORK.
When Rosina left the stage the brightest
light OF the trouge was gone, and with her
return the soul and heart of the old Vokes
performance came back. She is about thirty
years of age and went on the stage in
pantomime when she was but nine.
Her popularity ine this country is
the crowds at her performances but by the
courtesies which society is always delighted
TO ofer this charming and jolly little woman.
There Is no one like. her. There are those
who perhaps, make one laugh, but no one
like her can act the merry romp and still
retain all the dignity and elegance of re-
fined womanhood. M more. there is a
pathos in her acting which might bring q sob
very close upon the laugh.

Stamp comedy company has, after urgent

Is an entertainment well worth the regular

There are quartette and solo songs that are

among them that he was married to the
plaintiff in May last; that he was previously
wife left him and went to her parents home.
MIR. Hopkins then enters an absolute denial
of the charges that he was cruel to mis- wife,
even abused her or even told her to leave
him. He further declares that he is and has
at all times since plaintiff left him been will
ing and anxious for her to return to him.. and
he is ready and willing to care for, provide
a home and support his wife as q faithful
husband ought to do, and as he has always
tried to do; ana defendant AYERS, on infor-
nation and belief, that were it not for the
uncalled for and meddlesome interference
OF those who have no legal or moral right to
advise his wife, she would still be living
with him happy and contented.

THE FOOTBALL TROUBLE.

A abatement has come from the Princeton foot-
hall management which disposes utterly OF inc
charges which have heretofore been made by
pr,ncctons rivals in the intercollegiate footoan
League that the players representing that coheSe
have been bred to win the championship. In OK
,Iicit terms it is declared that every player on
tbc Princeton team which defeated Harvard on
November 1G, and which is to contend for the
supreme honor Of victory with the wearers OF the
blue tomorrow at Berkeley Oval. is regular,
bona fdc student, pursuing course OF study under
the direction OF the college authorities, and that
Furthermore, no member Of the team his receiver
any compensation, past or present. or any promise
of reward for his athletic services The effect OF
this certificate, Endorsed as it is by prominent
members of the college faculty, must be TO
place the Princeton players beyond the reach OF
any criticism or objection which points to them
as unworthy or unfair opponents.
All lovers OF fair and manly outdoor sport, and
especially all who are interested in keeping col.
iegiatc athletics on high plane Of pure aud gen.
erous amateur rivalry, will welcome Princeton's
statement The football season has unfortunately
been clouded with charges and cOunter-charges Of
dishonest and unsportsmanlike efforts on the part
of the colleges forming the football league, and
Harvard has. for reasons deemed sufficient TO her,
decided to withdraw from this body IL Will he
interesting TO observe what effect the strong state
ment Of Princeton's position will have upon
HarvaIds action and upon the sentiment at Yale,
which favors the formation of dual league Of
the crimson and the blue. Whatever the effect, it
is gratifying TO have the assurance that in the
game between Princeton and Yale tomorrow the
orange and black will present in opposition to the
blue team against which no suspicion, either
of unfairpess Of professionalism, can be
directed. Play ball, gentlemen and athletes, and
may the best team win.

Emin Pacha's reluctance TO abandon the en-
piie his genius, courage and fidelity had clc-
ated is easily understood. In going off with
Stanley he left the frIition Of work TO which
he had devoted thirteen years Of his life and
all his best energies He had built up what
could almost be called self-suStaining coun-
try, not OF course in the modern sense, but
surely in a business sense Within great area
which his ability had won from barbansm, he
had established genuine civilization. His
people were taught the uses Of labor and were
producing, however rudely, to their material
advantage. His beneficent supremacy over
them was complete, not even threatened, until
long after the downfall Of the SoudancSe au-
thonty from which he originally drew his own.
Indeed, wheu Stanley flSt cached him he was
still the master OF his province surrounded with
plenty and apparently able 10 make Il stout re-

superior to the garrison at Khartoum.

inc chances as between fight with its de-

is altogether likely he would have chosen tho
latter alternative even without the guarantee
of an outlet from the lake through the British
plotectorate but for the rebellion that broko
out among his own officers. He may have
realized by this time that the course he finally
took was the part Of wisdom, but he will GER

heart, bitterly deploring the hour when Eng
