Paul Kauvar ut Ming's Last Evening"
Coming Attractions

Paul Kauvar ut Ming's Last Evening"
Coming Attractions.
Paul Kauvar is a very strong though not
an altogether pleasing play. It is finely
constructed, the dialogue is terse and vigor-
GUS and the situations are strikingly vivid.
But there is too much red-handed revolu-
ton and too little comedy to relieve the
high pressure of the plot. It is, however,
interesting throughout and holds the care
full attention of the audience. Mr.. Joseph
Haworth as the hero gave fine interpreta-
ton of the character. He is one of the best
emotional actors on the American stage,
and while at times he seemed too intense
his acting produced a marked impression
on the audience. If Mr.. Haworth is lack
ing it is in the scenes in which moderation
would have given more natural effect to
the character. He has q fine stage presence
requisites to star actor. In addition
he shows power of expression and
an ease Of movement not always seen
in star actors. Miss Lizzie Rochelle, on
the contrary, has striking appearance
and an excellent voice, but her avSing is de-
void of either power or grace. Mr.. Charles
vandenhoff is an exceedingly clever actor
character Of Gourac. The too few bits Of
comedy were well given. The support waf
very good. The costumes were appropriate
to the time of the play, and the special of.
fects were good, notably that of the guillo.
tine scene in Kauvar's dream. The play il
indeed we'll worth seeing, and the audience
showed its appreciation by frequent bursts

A Pennsylvania court has just made
ruling that will interest many travel
lers. Some time ago man boarded
limited train at Erie, having only an
ordinary ticket. The conductor re-
fused to accept the ticket and elected
him. The man brought suit for dam
ages. The case has just been decided
against him, the court ruling that it
was his business to have found out if
the train in question was the right
train before boarding it.

THE HOLSTERS NEST.



I'm told, in riding somewhere West,
A stranger found Hoosier nest 4
In other words a buckeye cabin,
just big enough to hold Queen Nab in;
Its situation, low but airy,
Was on the borders of n prairie;
And, fearing he might be benighted,
lie hailed the house, and then alighted.
The Hoosier met him at the door
Their salutations soon were DER.
He took the strangers horse aside,
And to sturdy sapling ted
linen, having stripped the saddle OF,
lie fed him in u sugar-trough.
The stranger stopped to enter in
The entrance closing with pin
And manifested strong desire
10 seat him by the log heap fire,
Where half a dozen Hoosieroons,
With milk and mush, tin-cups and spoons,
White heads, bare feet, and dirty faces,
Seemed much inclined to keep their places,
but madam, anxious to display
Tier rough but undisputed sway,
Her offspring to the ladder led,
Ana euifed the youngsters up to bed.
Invited shortly to partake
OF venison, milk and Johnny cake,
The stranger made u hearty meal
And gl0nces round the room would steal.
One side was lined with divers garments,
The other spread with skins of varmints;
Dried pumpkins overhead were strung,
Where venison hams in plenty hung;
Two rifles placed above the door;
Three dogs lay stretched upon the floor
In short, the domicile was rife
With specimens of Hoosier life.
The host, who conferred his affections
On game and range and quarter sections,
Dlscoursed his weary guest for hours,
I1ll Somnus' all-composing powers
Df sublunary cares bereft EN-;
And then
No matter how the story ended
The application l intended
Is from the famous Scottish poet.
Who seemed TO feel as well know it,
That "buirdly chiefs and clever hizzies
Are bred in sic away as this is
