Old Point on n Brief Visit.
In accordance with the programme for
the entertainment OF the mechanical en-
gineers, about 200 members Of the socie-
ty, together with the ladies who accom-
panied them, left the city yesterday
morning in charge OF the local commit
tee for visit TO Newport News, Norfolk,
and Old Point.
At Newport News they inspected the
railroad pier and dry-dock and ship
building plant, and were handsomely en-
tortained by the dry-dock company at q
luncheon served at the Hotel Warwick.
AT Norfolk the party divided, some go
ing TO Old Point and others returning
through Petersburg and Richmond on
their way North. Owing to a delay on
the Norfolk and Western road the latter
party did not arrive here in time TO con-
meet with the regular train for Washing
ington yesterday evening and special
train was made up for them at the Union
depot.
SOME REMAINED HERE.
Several of this party, however, con-
cluded to remain over in the city last
night. Among them, Professor Hutton,
Mr.. Scott a. Smith, of Providence, X.
/. Mr.. Lem Gobeille, of Cleveland /;
Mr.. W. M. Barr, Of Philadelphia; MIR.
James Mcbride and wife and niece. Of
Brooklyn, Mr.. Grimm, of Glencove, Il.
J., and Mr.. Redwood, of Queens county,
l.. |. All Of this party was enthusiastic
as regards the trip. Mr.. Mcbride in
conversation with Dispatch represen-
tative said he had never in the course of
his life spent four as pleasant days.
Mr.. Grimm remarked that he had been
astonished at the advantages Richmond
offered as n manufacturing centre and
seemed to think it the place for capital
lists 10 invest who intended 20 engage in
manufacturing enterprises. He was espe-
cially impressed with the water-power Of
Richmond.
Last night Mr.. Grimm, Mr.. Mcbride.
and Mr.. Barr visited the electric power
house. One OF the gentlemen who came
direct from Norfolk said that in all tho
meetings Of the society he had attended
there had been nothing to compare to
their entertainment III Richmond, and
that the experience was a new one to
some Of the members.
LATE ARRIVALS.
The Old Point party, about thirty
in number, returned TO the city about
half-past IL o'clock last night and spent
the night at the Exchange. From these
gentlemen and ladies nothing was heard
but praise of Richmond and Virginia
hospitality. Professor Jacobus, Of
Stevens Institute, who seemed to voice
the sentiments of his associates, said he
had never attended 80 pleasant meet
ing of the society, and that his stay in
Virginia had been one continuous round
of enjoyment.

THE ACADEMY AND THEATRE.
Kings Fool Presented mt tho Former; a
Legal Wrong at the Latter.

Kings Fool Presented mt tho Former;
Legal Wrong at the Latter.
Those who composed the audience at
the Academy last night were agreeably
surprised, for "The Kings Fool
proved to be one OF the most pleasing
opera bouffes ever produced in this city.
The opera is built upon a poetic and
well-sketched libretto (something uncom-
mon nowsdays) and is blending of the
romanticism Of the French school and
dramaticism OF the German. The
libretto has O rich, musical setting. and
many Of the passages recall by their ex-
cellence Millocker and Won Suppe.
Miss Rita Selby. the charming young
singer who made such q fine SafIi on
Thursday night, was the central figure
Of the cast. Her delineation of the role
Of Prince Julius was marked by the
verve and sprightliness which q bouffe
part demands, and yet was modest and
unaffected.
Mrs. Padelford had the soutrette part
(Yvonne), which she did very nicely.
The comedy was done by Mr.. Grant,
whose Zarnoso was something infinitely
droll.
The performance as a whole was de-
cidedly superior to the companys work
in the "Gypsy Baron. d"
1.-The Kings Fool will be repeated
tonight, while for the matinee "Gypsy
Baron" is the bill, with Padelford Gs
Sani.
LEGAL WRONG.
This new melo-drama was produced
for tho first time IN this city at the The
atre last night, and was received with
great applause, some Of the scenic eff
fects creating quite q Juror. The sing
ing OF the Ohio Falls Quartette was very
good, and from appearances the audi
ence would have kept them singing all
night, demanding as many as seven en-
cores in the first act. The plot is intel
ligent and well-worked out, and al-
though the villain pursues the hero and
heroine closely, right triumphs in the
end and wrong is punished. There will
be a matinee to-day at 2:30 and per-
formance tonight.
