/ hffEhION-
| "Fontenelle," a romantic drama In four
acts, by Harrison Grey Fiske and Minnie
Asddsrn Fiske was the title of the new
play in which Mr.. James oNein was
seen last night. 1t depicts the life of the
French court at the timeof Louis XIV. The
piece is well staged and well acted. Mr.
oNeill as Fontenelle gave strong, artistic
performance, behind which there was al
ways plenty of reserve force. The Helen
OF Miss Florence Brandon was sweet and
womanly, If not quite convincing in the
more exsotirg scenes. Mr.. William III
Pascoe as Louis, and Miss Emma FORSYTH
as Pompadour looked their parts and acted
with feeling and good taste. The rest of
the company was far superior to that with
which stars usually surround themselves.
Inc play will be repeated this evening and
Is deserving of large attendance. Mrs.
Potter and Mr.. Bellew will appesr ON
Friday evening, October 81, in Zols,s
Therese." Sale of sests opens tomorrow
morning.
THE NEW GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

atoms, excellent specialties, comic dia-
logues and charming songs. The special

nicely that one is kept in good hunor the
whole time. In fact the play is a very
nice cloak for good vaudeville company.
Mr.. Carroll certainly deserves credit for
his piece.

CHICAGO, Oct. 17.-Millions of dollars
are being expended by the railroads CEN
tering in Chicago in preparing for the ex-
pected increase of business during the
worlds fair. Upward of 1900 new pas
senger coaches and over 400 new engines
have been ordered constructed and deliy-
cred prior to May l, 1898, and all the car
works and locomotive shops in the coun-
try are running overtime to fill orders. 1t
is estimated that the outlay for additional
rolling stock and motive power BY the
Chicago roads alone will not fall short of
81 900, 900.

OTTAWA, Oct. 1.-THE lobster catch of
the past season, taking the whole region
around Prince Edward Island up the gulf
shore and in the Bay Chaleur, according to
the latest advices, is estimated to be from
As to so per cent. less than in former
years. This is largely owing to the fact
that the season was rough one along the
exposed part of the coast and unfavorable
for fishing. In Bay Chaleur, which is more
sheltered, the catch was pretty we'll up to
the average.
The cod fishery was excellent up to Au-
gust, but it has since fallen away, and the
total catch will probably fall 10 per cent.

Boston, Oot. 17.-Hon. Thomas B. Reed
addressed large audience in fremont
Temple to night in the Star Lecture course,
on "The Progress of Humanity" This was
Mr.. Reeds first appearance here as purely

Governor Long presided. As literary
and platform speaker Mr.. Reed was forci-
BILE and attractive, but the little by-plays
and the choice and ready epigrams which
are inspired by big and enthusiastic
political meeting or by sharp debate were
missing. His lecture was very carefully
prepared, 80 carefully, in fact, that to-
wards the latter part of it he was confined
closely to his manuscript. As whole,
however, the speaker was interesting.

PORT TOWNSEND, Wash, Oct. 1.-THE
Gillian bark Augusta was fred upon last
night in the straits four miles below here
by the United States cutter Oliver Wolcott.
The Augusta attempted to leave Puget
sound without custom house clearance.
The trouble was occasioned by jealousy
between CHILEAN Consul Macoudray and
Vice CHILEAN Consul Delion at Tacoma as
to which shall transact the business of the
Gillian government on Puget Sound. The
Augusta arrived here several weeks ago
from Chilli. She surrendered her register
to Consul Macoudray and proceeded to
Tacoma to load cargo. Vice Consul Delion
advised the captain to demand the register
from Macoudray and if refused to proceed
to sea with temporary register. Macou-
dray instructed the vessel to clear from
Port Townsend. AS the vessel WAS going
out to sea she was overtaken by the VOL |
colt, but would not heave to until she was
fred upon. The vessel is subject to fine |

did not believe such conference could
have been held. When asked if Reading.

GROVER CLEVELAND.
CoNGRRGATIoNAL COUNCIL,

CONGR RGATIONAL COUNCIL.
Resolutions Adopted Regarding the
Civil Rights OF Colored People.
MINNEAPOLIS, Oct, 17.-At the National
Congregational council to-day resolution
was introduced and referred providing
that the churches be urged in the present
season to do all in their power to revive
the cause of religion, making the month of
December of every year period for special
effort in this line.
A resolution in regard to the colored
people was introduced and adopted de-
plo1ing the continuance of lawless spirit
and acts of violence in many parts of the
south of which they are the direct victims
and demanding thatevery citizen shall have
the right TO cast a full ballot and have that
ballot counted as cast, without distinction
of race.
The question of the planting of churches
in the smaller places in which there may
not be enough people to warrant the intro
duction of more churches was brought up
again and a resolution was introduced by
DR.. Sturtevant on the same line as the re-
port already presented. 1t was adopted.
There was quite a discussion over the
proposed change in the program hereafter
to include more papers and less business
It was not to be to the exclusion of needed
business, but to the injection of more live
papers on topics Of current interest which
will be discussed at the meetings. There
were various speakings on the questions.

both sides earnestly contested every
inch OF ground. There were 113 votes
cast, which we think is pretty good for
Wa-Keeney township considering the
busy season of the year.

committee, and James Kelly was elected
chairman and Schuyler Opp secretary.
