perhaps the most remarkable play
that Bouccault ever wrote was pro-
duced on the stage of Washington
theatre" said that veteran in affairs
of the stage, Mr.. Lloyd Monkey. 1T
was the drama called The Phantom
and the great dramatist had the title
role. At that time BoucicauIt had but
recently opened what was known as
the Washington theatre, which occu-
pied the building where the Theatre
Comique now is. That was in the year
lS6l. The building was rented from
Louis Carusi, and was fitted up in a
manner calculated to astonish the ma
tives at that period. No theatre In
Washington up to that time had ever
known such gorgeousness, The audi
torium was upholstered and the walls
hung with satin and purple and cardi.
nal velvet.
"Mr. Boucicault presented the char
acter of the phantom in "A manner that
Mortified while il electrified the audi
ence. The character of which he took
the part in the piece was that of a
vampire nobleman. Repeatedly killed,
he always succeeded in renewing his
life and diabolical usefulness by arts
peculiarly his own. Whenever he was
slain he would make dying request
to the friend he took care TO have with
him that his body should be placed
that night on the mountain top, where
the first rays of the coming mornings
sun would strike it.
Upon t.le reriyifying influence OF
these rays the rEapire depended for
resuscitaiiun The preseutmenr Of this
human nightmare by Mr.. 8ouricault
was Inust horribly vivid. He appears
on tn Stage rs II surt OF living corpse,
bloodiess and exanilH.tc, 81 E.rat was
the strain of this eNtrlo? l!Mary part
upon the actor that, after il had been
performed for while in Washington,
Mr. Boucicault said To his partner, Mr.,
Stuart: We must take this play oil
the bills. Ii is too much for my
nerves.
Boucicault conducted the Washing
ton theatre for three seasons, at the
end of which he sold out his interest in
the establishment. Many excellent
plays were successfully produced there
under his management, some oi them
of his own writing, and hc himself APP
peared as i,n actor Ia several.
Mr. Harry Rlpley, of the National
theatre, while ago addressed IA re-
quest To Mr. Boucicault thar he would
give IA definition of the difference be-
tween high and low comedy. The
dranatist replied:
Low comedy includes all those gro
tesque and humorous personages who
provoke laughter by eytravag;ncc and
distortion Of nature. These are de-
signed To be laughed at.
High comedy is dclinea,Un OF the
weaknesses of human beings-to pro-
woke amusement and sympathy with
Light hearedness and joyous expression.
1t includes such pcrsonages rs 10y their
good hunor provoke spectators to laugh
with them. 81 by their weaknesses in
vite spectators 10 laugh with the au-
thor Such Is Sir Peer Teazle. also

and IS, 1880.
The Fairfield county fair has
stood the test of years, maintained
its rank as the model of all similar
institutions, and is without an
equal in the State. Its picturesque
location at the foot of Mount Pleas
ant, gives it a peculiar attraction,
unattainable by others. Every de-
partment is encouraged by liberal
premiums, prominent exhibitions
and is provided with honest, COM
petent judges.
It's grounds, tracks, improve
mennts, equipment and accommo.
dations are unsurpassed. Lavish
nature and liberal management
have given it standing envied by
all. In 1889, a natural gas well
was drilled In the grounds, which
now belches its awful flame hun
dred feet in the air. From this
we'll the entire grounds will be
brilliantly lighted at night during
the coming Fair. Last year expe-
riments were attempted which
demonstrated that marvellous eX-
hibition can be made at night.
This year scene will be present
ed never before witnessed in the
world, with the flaming lake of fire
and other novel natural gas fea-
lures, and the extraordinary racing
program on Thursday and Friday
nights, and other new attractions.
Every department, horses, cattle,
sheep, swine, poultry, farm prod
ucts, fruit, flowers, art and needle
work will be filled to overflowing.
Admission to all departments,
tho races and gas exhibition, twen-
ty-fve cents, with absolutely no
extra charge. Racing night and
day-purses $3,360. Half fare ex-
cursions on all railroads.

On Monday the officers released
Dennis Mills and James Black, who
had been arrested on suspicion of
being connected with the Krinn
murder. They were released from
the fact that the officers did not
feel that they had sufficient evil
dence. Some of the statements re-
lied on in the start, did not seem
to hold good on investigation.
Charles Smith was arrested on
Thursday by Constable Dayey on a
charge of assault to kill on James
HI. Kyner at Bloomingville last fall.
His brother Gilbert Smith was
subpened as witness, and it was
thought his evidence could be used
to convict the burglars in the Par
rish case, he it is claimed, having
stated that he sat on the fence
while four others entered the prem
ises. But he now denies this, and
declares he never said it, and that
he was not there. No new devel-
opments have transpired in the
Krinn case. His son Jacob F.,
has been appointed administrator.
