OF this excellent melo-drama played here

II is an uncommon thing for a new com
pany or a new play to draw big house in

ton to the rule, when Peck and fursmsn's
superb dramatic company made their initial
appearance in Chss. Gayiers border drama.

Pioneer" for an audience that packed the
Academy of Music almost TO sufocation was
| present, and one and all went home highly
| pleased by the ente rtainment furnished. The
play differs from any border drama ever
presented here, in the fact that the "blood
and thunder" element vas almost entirely
eliminated which was very agreeable sur
| prise. The company 10 a good one and the
acting Of John l.. UIgerer as "Blacknsh" the
Indian Chief. is remarkably fine. band Of
genu ne Shawnee Indians, six horses. a DON
key, and wild animals introduced tend to
produce . realism never before witnessed in
a dramatic production. We wish this COM

THE FACE OF JESUS.

How sweet, q Lord Thy word of grace
Which bids sinner seek Thy face,
And never seek in vain.
That face. once set so sieadfastly
To meet Thy cross of agony,
Can never me dis,lain.
Thy visagc, marred and crowned with
thorn,
Thou hidcst not from grief and scorn.
Nor from the ,lcws of night
Yet in that face love appears,
Which scattcrs all my gloomy fears,
And illls my soul with light.
The heavens declare Thy power and love;
In all Thy works. below, above,
Thy majesty trace:
But mercy shines not in the skies,
And hope within my spirit dies,
Until SEE Thy face.
The brightness Of Thy glory. Lord,
Fill heaven and earth and written word
With beams of heavenly grace
But all the hosts of heaven shine,
With no such radinncy divine,
As Thy most blessed face
q Holy Radiance shine within,
And make and keep me free from sin,
And guide me to that place
Where all the pure IN heart appear;
Thy Name upon their foreheads bear,
And see Thee face 10 face.
