beautiful sight to see the Mlvery heads
arranged around the sides of the room.
The old folk went to the business of

DIR. Charles Shepard; First Vice-Presi-
dent, John +. Holmes; Second Vice.

About a year ago when Sarah Bern
hardt first produced "Joan d. Arc" at
the Porte st. Martin in Paris, and made
sucn tremendous success of the play
that it ran from January to June with
out interruption. Margaret Mather was
seized with the ambition to emulate the
great French actress and place before
the American public q "Maid of Or
leans' in the English tongue. For this
purpose she sailed to Europe last sum-
mer and visited Sarah 1T her home in
Paris, and afterwards accompanied Der
TO London to see the presentation OF
the play and the French artists per-
formance of the part at Her Aajesty's
Theatre, where it ran for four weeks.
paying Mile. Bernhardt's managers
$4,000 for the American rights. When
she returned In the fall TO resume her
tour in repertory, she brought back
with her original models for scenery
and properties and designs for COS
tunes, and the prompt book OF the
Porte st. Martin. Scenic artists, me-
chanics and wardrobe makers were At
once set to work, and the production
after an expenditure Of $4,000, was
successfully staged and played at the
Fifth Avenue Theatre. The piece was
written some eighteen years ago by
Julius Barbiere, of the French Authors
Society, for Mile. Liza Felix, sister of
the great Rachel, who also made =
great success in it. The English version
is by Mr.. William Young. the author of
the Ganelon and several other classi-
cal plays, and the press OF New York
are very unanimous in praising his
work. The story that NJ. Barbiere has
followed is that used in the French
school histories, and, of course, is a
patriotic theme. 1t will be produced at
Powers Opera House on Monday and
Tuesday next.
Commencing tonight, "Ben Hur"
will be seen in tableaux and panto-
mine at Powers Grand for the remain
der of the week. Thus we shall get an
impressive realization of the force of
the tale of Christ, by way Of illustra-
ton. This was the method In the
Middle Ages of emphasizing religious
truth. There has been a generous de-
mand for seats for every evening.
Some good locations are left, however.
Lew and Nellie shaw, the billiard
experts, arrived at Sweets Hotel, yea
terday. They appear at the Lycsum
Theater; tonight and tomorrow after
noon and evening. Mr.. Shaw will play
with George II. Ellis, of this city, 200
point game, and Mrs. Shaw will give an
exhibition of her skill. Seats may be
secured at the box Office.
The statement made in the Morning
Press. yesterday, 70 the effect that the
city officials, and Supt. Eastman and
the Police Commissioners have animal
passes to Powers' Opera House, IL ALSO
lutely untrue. So says Manager Hickey

element and hold the interest to the
end. A drama of this kind whose en-
phasis depends on sharp turning points

is the secret of the success Of this play.
1t is the general run of kmoothness and
lack of far reaching details and ef-

Numerous inquiries have been
made at The CHRONICLE Office as to
whether or not we had seen an ac-
count in the papers of the death
sentence being passed on Tom Har-
per, former resident of Benton
County, but now residing at Green
wood, Ark.
Some months ago a man seduced
a daughter Of Mr. Harper's under
promise Of marriage, and upon re-
fusing to fulfill his promise, was
shot and killed by the aggrieved
father. His trial on the charge OF
the killing came up for hearing a
few days since, at which, so we
learn from a private letter, he was
acquitted, and is now a free man
The letter also states that he was
never even placed in prison.
