it by liberal patronage in the way OF attend

appear the Judgment of the author has
been at fault in the title given the piece.
Many persons who hold to the religion Of

Despite the general poOh-poohing, the
left handed compliments ana OutspOken
objections John L. Sullivan has had to con-
tend against since be came 10 the Bush
street, he has played to a packed house
every night since he opened. The man is
no actor; has about as much idea of the
drama as be has of international law, and
the play" which Mr. Harrison has pre-
pared for him is so fimsy in construction
and rubbiShY in idea that it can only be
mentioned TO be condemned. Still, Sulli-
van in Honest Hearts and Willing Hands"
has done better business during the week
than any other theater in the city The
logical deduction from this state of facts
is that public opinion under some cir
CUmStanCes is not worth a peppeT-cOrn
in a dramatic way; that In this instanre it
is only used as thin veneer to conceal a
strong desire on the part of all classes in
the community to see Sullivan the boxer,
and not Sullivan the actOr-one is a fact,
the other a dramatic fiction. Human nature
is Interchangeable The same spirit of Gu
riosity and bl0OdthiTstiness in a degree that
drew the citizens Of ancient Rome and their
wives TO the arena where the gladiatOrs
fought to the death takes the citizens of san

They like a good battle as they like a good

offered this nonsense will Tepudiate it alto
gether as a bad mixture, the elements being
no good to start with. OF course. there may
be curiosity to see Sullivan as man that
may help his enterprise. But, as prize

the uncle left the play to his nephew, to-

handsomely and keep it before the public

A RIVAL TO ALABAMA"
Well Ansrvernd.

In recent biography Of the late Cardinal
Newman a characteristic story is told. John
Braham, the great Jewish tenor (prede-
cessor of Sims Reeves, was advertised to
take part in the annual musical services at
ST. Mary's, NeWman's church, near Oxford,
for the benefit of the Radcliffe Infirmary.
Newman had his objections to Brafam, and
sent him note interdcting his singing at
the church. BTaham opened the note, read
it, and took no further notice. At the ap
pointed time in the programme he stood up
in the organ gallery and filed the church
for him at the foot Of the organ staircase to
demand an apology for the invasion OF his
rights. His only answer was: You did
your duty and / did mine," saying which
Braham brushed past him and hurried away.
