Why She Failed.

The failure of Miss Eastlake's tour seems
partly due to the fact that the venture was
not sufficiently backed with funds. but even
if it had been, it would undoubtedly been a
loser, as both MIR. Willard and Mr.. Bar
rett's tours are sure to be. 1t is doubtful
if any English company, Henry Irving's
excepted, can again swing around the
American theatrical circuit and sail away
with any great amount of eagles. Neither
Mr. Wyndham nor Mr.. Wilson Barrett
could land they are both American favor
ites) if they come over, as they have
threatened to do, with their imported COM
panies. Independent actors are as well
come as the flowers in spring, and if they
can act, may count on a most royal well
come but the full-fedged English or
CARNATIONS that come over to show what
ensemble really means, are not liked to any
great extent, first because they have not
shown anthing new, and secondly, because
their advent conflicts with our labor laws.
The poor company which the Kendals have
with them this season will do much to kill
the fashionable geese that have laid so
many golden eggs. Matched into sovereigns
on the other side of the Atlantic, to re-
main there for ever more.

The Bottom of the Sea.

Brady's big marine spectacular play, The
Bottom of the Sea, will have its first pro-
duCtion in Fort Worth at the opera house
on Saturday, November !, with 4 matinee
and night performance The following is
from the New Orleans Picayune:
The audience at the st. Charles theater
last night was exceedingly well pleased
with the performance. as was evidenced by
the intensity of the applause bestowed i.
The house was packed, the standing room
sign having been posted at 7:15 o'clock.
The attraction was Webster & Brady's
Sea- and while the effect may be
strained to make point, the tout ensemble
is good.
The first act shows the interior of steam
ships cabin, and then the rescue after the
burning and laundering of the steamship
The latter is very effective. In the third
act the upper deck of French man-of-war
is well reproduced. The bottom of the sea
is shown in the fourth act, and in this scene
lies the principle merit of the show. 1t is
very realistic, the divers in their rubber
suits surmounted with electric submarine
lights, appearing TO great advantage.
OF course, not word is spoken, and
when the villain gets in his work and cuts
the air tube of his friend, the excitement of
the audience is all the more intense.
The plot deals with three lovers and one
French heireSs, and winds up in the usual
happy manner after undergoing very and
farfetched improbable situations.
One of the lovers is a Greek, Alexis
Banilli, and he is the snake in the grass.
Mr. George p. Webster impersonates the
character in such villainouS manner that
each time he appeared on the stage the
gallery gods gave him the ''dago whistle"
Mr.. Webster Is an actor of more than Or
binary ability. OF the other two lovers,
one is an American of wealth, and the other
a cousin of the young lady, who attains
fame as an engineer. The latter under
takes to lay cable, and Mortar, the Ameri-
can, ships as first assistant.
Banilli also ships as gentleman of leis-
ure, taking notes, and during the voyage
hampers with the cable so as to cause it to
break. This necessitates the trip of the
divers to the bottom of the sea. and while
there Banilh finds box of jewels belonging
to the young ladys father. The cousin
discovers him, and then there is sub
marine battle and BanilG comes out I'M
scathed Norton is accused of the murder
of the engineer because of 4 previous threat
to kill him, but the mystery is finally I'M
raveled and the villain unmasked.
Felix Haney made a very good and
natural Barney Doyle, his happy manner
winning favor from the start. Miss Camille
Cleveland is fair as Emily LeBrun, while
Miss Mollie Stockmeyer might improve her
impersonation of Denizette by speaking in
her natural tone Of voice instead of making
futile attempt to speak with French ac-
cent. The remainder of the troupe is quite
up to the average.

Joe Howarth's Success.

Joseph Haworth's success this season has
been marked, says Dunlop's Stage News,
and his venturing into the starring field
has been demonstrated to be sensible
move. His ability. which has never been
questioned. either Us leading support to a
star, or as the chief actor in stock COM
pany has enabled him to Immediately take
front rank as one of the most promising
young actors of the country. He has al
ready, this season, appeared in Chicago,
Pittsburg and Cleveland. and in each in
stance his personal success and that made
by his plays was unquestioned. His in
tense nervous force and strong tragic
power, always familiar characteristics in
subsidery roles, shine with undimmed lus-
ter when he appears as a star at the head
of his own company. His repertoire, which
includes a revival of the late E. L. Daven-
ports romantic drama. st Marc" Booths
version of ''Ruy Bias" and dramatization
of Anna Katherine Green's powerful ro-
nance, ''The Leavenworth Case" gives
ample display for his peculiar talents. At
every performance it is said he receives
curtain calls at the end of each act. Really
a remarkable triumph in these days of new
stars and dramatic novelties.

Kajanka.

This spectacular, said to be superior to
"Fantasma," the Devils Auction or the
"Black Crook will be made known at the
opera house on Wednesday and Thursday
evenings with Thursday matinee.
The play is founned on an East Indian
legend. Sayaka, an acknowledged god,
who had powers supernatural was swal-
lowed up while standing on a mountain.
Upon his death his marvellous powers de-
scended on his two daughters Satanella or
"Beezlebub'' and Electra To the
while Electra was given power even
greater, for good. Beezlebub sends her
son Sanyka to earth, loaded with wealth,
for the purpose OF destroying souls and lur-
ing them to destruction. In the first act
Electra by means of the magic wand, i'm
merses Janyka or ''Zamello" in the stom-
ach of the great golden god of the jams,
''Kajanka.'
''Zamello' has the happy faculty of ap-
pearing at all times when Electra" is not
near. Zamello remained in the stomach of
the golden god until the latter was de-
stroyed, and his mothers power taken
away.
In the second scene of the second act the
fairy grotto, Electra's home. is seen. Elec-
ira creates clown, George d. Melville,
whose duty 1t is to enjoy life and have lots
Of fun. He is Immediately crowned king
and set on the throne to witness the Papil-
lian skirt dance. This is something en-
tirely new. Electra, by means of her magic
wand, changes the scene to floral bower.
Then appears Miss Edith Craske in her
transformation dances. Miss Craske is an
adept at this business. and her changes are
made in remarkably quick time

INDIGNANT CITIZENS.
Resolutions Passed by Citizens of Whitney
On the Treatment of DIR.
Pittman.
WHITNEY, HILL COUNTY, TEX, Oct 30.

Editor Gazette.
In the course of human events, things
happen that make countless thousands
MOURN and the following is what has
caused our citizens to give expression to
their sorrow:
WHITNEY, Ten, Oct. 2S, 1891.
A mass meeting was called to order in
DR.. Joe Norris Office by electing Mr.. o. w.
Foster to the chair and Tom r. Stewart
secretary. The object of the meeting was
explained by the chairman to be to pass res
olutions in condemnation of the act of the
mob who took DR.. Pittman from the hotel
and brutally whipped him. The following
committee was appointed to draft the reso-
buttons: DR.. D. Harris, Rev. A. Marsh,
Rev. 7. S. Romar and H. c. Ford, who re-
ported the following preamble and resolu-
lions, which were unanimously adopted, to-
wit:
Whereas, on the night of October %, 1891,
in the town of Whitney, Hill county, Tex,
DR.. w. r. Pittman, a citizen of Fort Worth,
Tex, was decoyed from his hotel by mob
of lawless men, was gagged. tied, whipped,
kicked and abused in an unmerclful and
outrageous manner. Now, be it
Resolved, by the citizens of Whitney and
vicinity that we deprecate and condemn the
cowardly and outrageous conduct of said
mob in the severest terms, and we pledge
ourselves as citizens to use our utmost in
fuence to bring the parties guilty of such
outrage to justice and to prosecute them to
the fullest extent of the law in the courts
of justice of our country. Be it further
Resolved, that we extend to DR.. Pittman
our sympathy, support and protection as a
body and as individual citizens. Be it fur
Their
Resolved, that the secretary be instructed

the attention of the audience for ten min
, utes, and had to respond twice to recalls.
These acrobats are well worth the price of
admission.
The last act is humorous one. Electra S
creation, the clown, does some very fine
feats in Juggling with teapot, spoon, ball,
cane and an egg When the clown goes to
bed Zamello appears, and by his power
causes the bed clothes to disappear through
4 picture over the bed. When the clown
gets out to expostulate with Beezlebub's
son, the bed is exchanged into a stove, and
lounge in the room moves away and again
reappears.
The clown stretches himself on the
lounge, and is Immediately cut in two by
Beezlebub. The act is neat one and calls
forth the appreciation of the audience. But
Electra appears and gives wand to the
clown. The latter proceeds Immediately
to take possession of the earth. By sweep
of his hand he causes an immense earth
quake, and by another Electra's home, a
scene of Oriental splendor, is viewed, and
the show is over.
Appropriate songs are sung by a corps of
pretty ballet girls all through the play, and
a unique drill is given. The costumes are
elegant. But the remarkably quick changes
of scenery are probably the most notable
features of the play. The fairy grotto and
the final tableau are marvels of the art.
