new phase in comedy, but, adhering strictly
TO the laws laid down for producing a
drama, that both has to be pleasing and con-
tain several situations in which the star can
show himself 20 good effect, it is a success.
In the part of Man Schinnael, the Jovlal Ger
man, Mr.. Reilly has an excellent chance to
look like the late Joe Emmett, and evil
IDENTIFY has learned great deal from him,
as he initiates his work in many way
The imitation. however, is very good, and
his dancing and singing exceedingly pleas
ing. There is great danger that Mr.
Reilly some day may be eclipsed by Robbie
Reilly. Jr., whose performance last night
as little Daisy was one of the most wonder
full that has been seen for some time. The
boy not only acted the part OF girl all
during the play, but went even so far as to
make the famous "split" in the serpentine
dance, dressed in "Little Tuesday" robe.

received BY his local friends, and very

The Academy of Music.

Sam Devere has just about as good vau-
deville company as comes to Pittsburg, and
doubtless that was the opinion of the audi
ence that crowded the Academy of Music
last evening. There is not bad performer
in the entire lot, and there are many ex-
ceedingly good. One of the great features
of the company is Sic Hassan Ben Ali's
Royal Moorish troupe. There are nine
of them. They are dancers, acrobats
and testers of a very high standard The
"Irish Dukes" Leonard and Moran, are an
excellent attraction. In little and inter
esting sketch entitled ''Fun at the Club, !"
Paddy Mcbride and Walton give a
thorough-going boxing exhibition that is
worth seeing. The Sisters Coulson are
clever song and dance artists; the Wood
Travelli trio are only fair, and c. w.
Littlefeld, Harry La Rose, 'The Musical
Highleys" and Rowe and Brannen were all
well received OF course Sam Devere and
his banjo went well, as usual. His songs.
"When Was a Dear Little Baby" and
''Mammie's Little Black-face Coon" were
exceedingly entertaining.

The Worlds

The interest in the performing dogs last
week was so great that the management Of
this house had to keep them for another
week. Yesterday they appeared in new
play entitled 'rThe Hunters Dogs" and it
goes without saying that the CANNES came
in for their part of the applause. The in
terest in them, however did not overshadow
the whole performance, as Messrs. Vic and
Harry Leonzo also met with hearty recep-
tion. The play was ably acted and we'll
staged all throughout. Miss Lille
Kerslake made her performing pigs
do some wonderful tricks in the curio hall,
and James Morris, the elastic man, was a
wonder to professional and laymen alike.
A neat piece of work was done by Miss
Lean Sherman, who, with nothing but a
common jack-knife, whitfield all sorts of
things There were also several minor
attractions, and the whole show was heartily
enjoyed by the many people present.

The MiddIeman at the Duuuesne.

The vociferous applause that greeted Mr.
E L. Willard last night on his reappear-
ance as Cyrus Blcnkdrn was not one of the
ordinary kind. No political convention,
whose platform had been unanimously
adopted, could have surpassed the audience
in the Duquesne Theater in their enthus-
iasm. For full minute and half nothing
was heard but clapping of hands and moth
ing seen but waving handkerchiefs.
1.-The Middleman" is almost known to
ali playgoers in Pittsburg, and will therefore
be remembered as play with very strong
story, consistently brought to happy end.
In the role of Cyrus Bleakd,1i, the old potter,
Mr.. Willard has opportunity to touch both
poles in the dramatic art-the one of SUBJ
dued quietness and the other of exalted
force In both instances he shows himself
equally powerful. In the first act he
'1ives" the life OF the dreaming artist,
whose only object is to find the secret of an
lost art Up to the time he learns of his
daughters betrayal, he has no ambition
outside his lonely kiln. At the
moment the truth flashes upon him
his whole individuality is changed From
the absorbed dreamer he becomes a man
Cu-zs BleakdTn, the potter, is now Cyr1s
Ble,.kar7 the avenging father. MI. Willard.
st,-icto Se7su, is both. If we love him in the
beginning for his quiet. quaint ways, we
admire him when he uses his force And
he does not eIaggerate; therein lies the
truth of his art. How many actors would
not, for instance, in q scene like the one
where he calls on heaven for justice, strut
from one end of the stage to the other tear
ing their hair? Mr.. Willard stands still on
one spot; mis- hands are raised and his BODY
yibrates, while his sonorous voice pro-
nounces the words with an underlaid inten-
sity and energetic force, that can hardly be
surpassed. In that supreme moment Mr.
willard struck the keynote of true drama
tic art. Miss Marie Burroughs intuses
note of sincere emotion in the part of Mary
Ble,akar7. aud deserves the highest praise for
her work. The two comedy parts of Jesse
Pea and Batty Todd were ably handled BY
Messrs. Fred Tyler and Harry Cane and
Mr.. Louis Massen was very winning as
Captai, Chandler The minor parts were
ali acceptably filed. The scenery was very
good, the burning kiln naturally attracting
the greatest attention.

Harry Davis Eden Musee.

The good variety show was the main
attraction at this popular house yesterday.
Hamilton and Glynn's Metropolitan Com
pany furnished the entertainment, and it
was a pleasing one. Captain w. l. Marsh
showed considerable skill and musical
talent in handling the, trombone and the
Crane Brothers presented something new
and funny in their double bone act. Mr.
GIynn ranks among the first banjo players
in the country and is ably assisted
by Mr.. Hamilton on the violin.
In the curio hall the glpsies filled return
engagement, and afforded great deal of
pleasure for the ladies, who were anxious
to have their fortunes told. Captain Chit
tenden showed a very interesting collec-
tion of Arctic curiosities, which he had
gathered during his travels in the Northern
seas The attendance was, as usual, very
good, and big crowds filled the house both
at afternoon and evening performances.

An increased demand and
larger: production enable the
manufacturer to add to the
conveniences, improve the
quality and finish, and at the
same time to cheaper the cost.
Or, in other words, you get
better value for less money.
Our stock of Ladies Writing
Desks strikingly illustrates this
law. Prices are now ridicu-
lously low. They have dropped
50 per cent in three years.
The same is true in a greater
or less degree throughout our
three departments of Carpets,
Curtains and Furniture.
Multitudes are therefore buy
ing goods now which a few
years ago were quite beyond

HAMuuRo, Sept. 1S-From the re-
turns received in regard to the ravages
of the cholera epidemic in this city, it
is learned that 2SG fresh cases and l27
deaths were reported yesterday.
These figures, however, include 90
fresh cases and 45 deaths which occur
red on previous days, thus showing a
big decrease both in the number OF pa
tients and the morality OF the pesti-
lence.
No demands wcre made on the au-
thorities to-day for the transportation
of the bodies OF victims to the mortu-
airy until $3.50 o'clock this morning.
A fact showing the return OF conf
dence on the part of the people is that
the usual concerts were given in the
Saint PAUL. beer garden this afternoon
for the first time in several weeks,
Other public concerts will be resumed
tonight.

NEW York, Sept. lS.-The Hon. Carl
schurz has written a lengthy letter ad-
dressed to the Cleveland and Stevenson
clubs OF Kings county, and Alexander
L. Orr and other citizens Of Brooklyn,
giving his views OH the present national
political situation. Mr.. schurz was in
vited by the clubs and citizens to OK
press his opinions in an address, but
ill health prevented him from doing SO.
After brief introduction Mr.. sChurz
says:
"We are told that the tariff is the
chief issue of this campaign. GER
tainly do not underestimate the impor..
tance OF any OF its aspects, but regard
it only as q part OF q fur more compre-
hensive question, which is not merely
economic, but political in nature, and
concerns the general working, in fact
the moral vitality, OF our democratic
system of government.
There Is n school OF pessimista grow
ing up among us who, whenever any
thing goes wrong, are ready to declare
democratic government failure and
10 despair OF the republic. II their
dismal state of mind only led them to
moro sharply criticize, it would do no
harm. But when every attempt At I'M
provement is discouraged as useless 1t
becomes harmful. By tho same meth.
DDS every kind OF government would
fail and anarchy would remain. 1t
must be q government OF public opln-
ion expressed in the form OF laws.
Such government will have mistakes,
but as long as the growth OF public
opinion in the body polite is free the
good sense Of the people may be trusted
to bring about the correction OF exist
ing evils.
This will remain true provided cor
tain influences arc kept out Of politics
which peryert the honest expression OF
public opinion. The most obvious OF
these evils are money and the machine.
There ALWAYS has been and always will
be some money used in elections for
perfectly proper purposes. But sums
are spent in presidential and state
campaigns which generation ago
would have been thought fabulous.
The election Of Some United States sem
ators by some legislatures occasions
financial arrangements as large as those
Of starting a big bank.
In some congressional districts and
in some municipalities tho cost Of
canvass Is enormous. That much Of
this money is used for bribery; that
not a few constituencies, not long ago
pure, are now thoroughly debauched
and that the evil has blen growing and
spreading from year to year cannot
be denied. 1t has come to be that
the raising OF big sums for use
in elections is officially recog-
nized as q high political function
deserving Of signal recognition. Look
at the frankness and gravity with
which party managers discuss the sta
tistics Of purchasable voters, and the
methods Of watching and buying float
ers. In conclusion Mr.. schurz spoke
highly OF Grover Cleveland and said
that he looked upon his nomination In
spite Of the efforts of the machine ava
good sign. He did not think highly OF
President Harrison's administration.
