LINCULN'S MELANCHOLY.
His Sympathetic Nature and His Early

Misforiunes.
Those who saw much OF Abraham Lincoln during
the latter years of his life greatly impressed
with the expression of profound melancholy his
face always wore in repose
Mr. Lincoln of peculiarly sympathetic and
kindly nature. These strong characteristics IN
fuenced, very happily. as it proved his entire
political career. They would not seem at hrst
the peculiar emergency which Lincoln, in the
providence OF God. was called to meet no vessel OF
common clay could possibly have become the
'chosen of the Lord"
Those acquainted with him from boyhood knew
that early griefs tnged his whole life with sadness
His partner in the grocery business at Salem was
'Uncle" Billy Green OF Tallula, H., who used at
night, when the customers were few, to hold the
grammar while Lincoln recited his lessons.
1t was to his sympathetic ear Lincoln told the
story of his love for sweet Ann Rutlidge; and he,
in return offered what comfort he could when poor
Ann died. and Lincoln's great heart nearly broke.
"After Ann died." says Uncle" Billy, ''on stormy
nights, when the wind blew the rain against the
roof, Abe would set thar in the grocery his elbows
his knees, his face in his hands. and the tears
runnin' through his fingers hated to see him feel
bad. an I'd say. ABE don't cry': an he'd look up
an say, 4 can't help it, Bill, the rains fan on
her."
There are many who can sympathize with this
overpoweriDg grief. they think of lost loved
one. when 1.-THE rains fallin' on her." What adds
pognancy to the grief sometimes Is the thought
that the lost one might have been saved.
Fortunate. indeed. is William johnson of Corona,
L. L, a builder, who writes June %, 1890: Last
February, returning from church night, my
daughter complained of having pain in her ankle.
The pain gradually extended until her entire limb
was swollen and very painful to the touch. We

ton, pronounced it disease OF the kidneys OF

The New ..CrvstaI siipper.-

The matinees CT "The Crystal Slipper"
have been crowded 20 the doors every week,
and when it was made known that new
edition would be put on, including features
particularly attractive to the juvenile ropu-
lation, so great was the demand for seats for
the Saturday matinee that it was found
necessary to give an extra matinee on
Wednesday next. With commendable gen.
crosby the management have invited 10 this
matinee the inmates of the orphan asylums
in this city. All the novelties so interesting
10 children will be presented, including the
nursery rhymes advertisements and the baby
songs and games of the inmates of
the big shoe in which the old
woman of infantile fiction lived. Next Sun
day night will be the last performance of
The Crystal Slipper" in San Francisco.
Next Monday morning the big company,
with its carloads of scenery, properties and
wardrobe, will depart for Portland in its
own train, which is now ON the tracks wait
ing for it. Next season Manager David
Henderson will come here with production
which, if possible, will be superior TO the
present one, and for two years after that,
by arrangements made by Manager Hay
man before he left for the East the great
eXtravaganZas of the Chicago Opera House
will be shown to San Francisco in ali their

THE THEATERS.
IS The Still Alarm" Crowds the
Auditorium of the California.
A Pretty and Picturesque Performance Of The
Brigands" at the Baldwin-New
Edition of the Slipper"

The novelty Of the title and the interest
felt generally in a drama connected with
modern everyday life drew very full at
tendance to the New California last evening
to see Joe Arthur's The Still Alarm"
This peculiarly constructed drama may be
accepted 10 mark the difference between the
time when Frank Chanfrau made seEsa-
ton by playing Nose" and the present
day, when the improved " fire " sys-
tenn gives such character as Jack
Manley (AIr Harry Lacy pretty much the
same important position in the estimation
of theater audience as the red-shirted New
York fireman enjoyed before the advent of
steamers" We think, however. the Chan
frau epoch was more picturesque than the
present one. There was more muscle ard
less machinery; more personal daring and
less horse-fiesh and steam; more deyil-may
care reckleSsness and Self-Sacfifce, and
fre-plug literature that has become
historic. The greater protection to life and
property under the present conditions does
not, of course, enter into the romance" OF
the comparison. Mr.. Althur's drama, how
ever, meets the necessities of the time, and
has a significance and an interest Of its own,
tame az that interest may be in some par
ticulars. The drawing act OF the piece is, of
course. the third one, the Central Fire Sta
ton, New York City, where the methods of
the modern system are presented with realis-
tic fidelity. The steam fire-engine is perfect
in all its PARTS; the two milk-white horses
are as doeie as kittens. They come at the
bidding of Manley, and take sugar from his
hand, and when he sounds the gong they
range themselves at the pole of the ma
sheen with celebrity that shows perfect
training. The force" that, in the loft
above, nave been singing themselves to
sleep with quartetS, Good Nights, etc, are
as alert as possible. and are at their posts
before the last vibration of the gong has
ceased and the dash Of the Steamer" from
hind. is most exciting. We do not know
where to place Syksey that the Nose
of old times used to ask to take

on Sixth street had closed at that hour, ac-
cordiDg 10 promise. The street has been
picketed and will be closely watched that no
dealer gees back on the proposition Of early
