John Dillon Coming.

What William Warren was to Boston,
what John Gilbert was to New York, what
Ben De Burr was to st. Louis John Dillon
was to Chicago. How the theater-goeis in
the great and growing metropolis of the
West used to swear by John Dillon. He
was the favored child of dramatic fortune
in the days before the great fire-which
swept away all he had except his name
and his talent. The veteran comedian has
never been seen in Seattle, and to certain
extent is an entire stranger. Yet there ere
many attractions of more than ordinary
merit that never have penetrated the far
West, and Mr.. Dillon may be classined, as
onesof them. Oneenjoys a performances in
which he figures, and leaves the theater at
its finish satisfied that he has had enough
for his money. that he would have paid
more and still be contented with the ex-
penditure. Mr. Dillon, supported by a
good company, will appear at the Seattle
opera-house next Monday and Tuesday
evenings in his latest comedy success,

successful in these plays in San Francisco
and Portland.
pretty, piquant Marie Wainwright
scored such signal success by her imper-
sOnation Of Viola at the Fifth Avenue last
night that her season, not only in New
York, but also on the road, promises to
be something of triumph. Her perform
ance OF the love-sick maid of Ihyria was
not alone perfect in itself, but was sur
rounded by such elements as increase sue
cess. The company, the scenery. the
furniture, appointments and costumes of
the play were instanced by such exactness
of art and archaeological completeness that
in every particular it was almost flawless
production of the comedy.
"Miss Wainwright's art is so dainty and
volatile nature that the part Of Viola
seemed last night to suit her more tittingly
than any character in which she has ever
appeared before New York audience.
From the moment of her first entrance,
clad in an old-gold gown, until the end of
the play she held the attention Of the
house almost entirely on herself. The
pages costume in the second act was mar
vellousIy becoming. and she made such q
pretty picture that the spectators involun-
tarily broke into applause at the sight of

Some time ago we mentioned the
fact that Virginia coal had been ship

one of our exchanges that u ship

been made from one of the Georgia

Touring mill, once converted into
large roller mill, added to the
busy planning mill already there,
will place this new village on the
Clinch ahead of her aristocratic
neighbor.
VIM. Moody, Supt. of the Clinch
Valley Coal and Coke Co., was in
town several days the past week
to attend the monthly meeting of
the board, and to ship his house
hold goods and gods to Virginia
City, where his family will Join
him in a few days. Tho beautiful
weather, the prospect of a union
of the home circle, and the beauti-
ful seven foot vein Of gas coal have
increased his personal pulchritude
and made him more pleasant than
ever.
The Lrray Times, of which Mr..

will he moved at ouce to Goshen,
Va, on the c 81 o. R'y., where it
will he published in future in the
interest of that town. Tie sale of
the Times was owing TO the unfor-
