THE ..LITTLE MAVERICK. ;,
Maggie Mitchell Delights a Large
Audience at the MetropoIigan.

Audience at the Metropolitan.
DIR. Holmes says "There's nothing
that keeps its youth. so far as 1 know,
but tree and truth" and he might
have added land Maggie Mitchell"
Nobody remembers when she first began
to skip and giggle and strut about the
stage for the beneht of the people in
front, but beyond break or two in her
voice and an old womanish quaver now
and then, she is just the same jolly little
body she was then. The makeup needs
to be little thicker perhaps. but she is
just as active, and dances and runs and
flies about quite as if she was sixteen
instead of-but it isn't polite to tell a
lady'Sage
The play she appeared in at the Met
r0p0litan last evening is The Little
Maverick by Charles L. Darcy. Mr..
DaZty began his career as a playwright
with Under Which F'lag"' play
which was tried on the dog out in Fargo
by an amateur company eight years ago.
Since then he has written a number of
plays. all of the same pattern, extreme
ly unnatural, and intoierably talKy.
''The Little Maverick" is like all the
rest. Its plot is weak, its action weaker,
but the title role affords Maggie Mitch
ell every opportunity to display her
peculiar talents The rest of the char
acters are simply hauled in by the heels
whenever the somewhat remarkable
heroine is really obliged to have some
body to ''Sass back"
Maggie Mitchell, as May Percy, is
capital, and her dance in Act Ii is as
pretty bit of yivacity as oae often
sees. Sara Lascelles. as Elise Farleigh,
is inoffenSive, and wears every dress
with cheerful disregard of the time Of
day. Harry A. Smith, as Lord Ken
wood. is handsome, manly fellow,
whe is not required to do much but APP
pear i'll a different pair OF trousers at
every one Of his entrances. K. f. Me-
Clannin. as Peter Bunker, is as clever
as his lines allow him to be. II. ID.
Blakemore, as Shane McCrea. as he ap-
pears bubblng over with Joy in the last
act, is the most interesting actor in the
cast.
OF course, the play amounts to little.
Without Maggie Mitchell 1t would be
bore, but with Maggie Mitchell it goes
with a spirit AID vim that keeps the
house-and large house it was last
night. too -appIauding constantly. Its
faults are many, but for all that it is
one of the most entertaining plays we
have had this season, that is, as Maggie
Mitchell plays it,.
The Little Maverick" is played all
the week

AFTER MANY DAYS.
Edward Putnam Called Upon to
Answer an Old Charge.

Answer an Old Charge.
E. S. Durkee and Edward Putnam
met on Third street yesterday morning.
1t was seven years since they had en-
countered each other last. They were
then residents of Waupun, Wis. AS a
result of their meeting yesterday Mr..
Putnam reposed in cell at Central sta
ton last night and this morning the
sheriff of the county i'll which Waupun
is located will arrive in st. Paul to es-
cort him to that city. Durkee
recognized Putnam as the individual
who stealthily quit the Wisconsin town
one night in February. 1885, taking with
him valuable team of horses belong
ing to a prominent citizen. A search
was made far and near for him at the
time, but he could not be found. Dur
kee was so sure of his man that he in
formed Officer Mozart. who took them
both to the central station. There Put
nam gave the name OF Fred Chady, but
his actions were so suspicious that there
was hardly any room for doubt as to his
real identity, and Chief Clark at once
telegraphed the proper authorities. The
suspected horse thief has been living Ill
this city for several months. and for a
time is said to have been employed as a
coachman by family on the hill.

THE CURRENCY DEBATE.

The tariff debate, which has been
prosecuted with much yigOr in the
house of representatives for the past
few weeks, will now be Interrupted for
three days while the BLAND bill is
under consideration. Much interest cen
tiers about this measure, and the discus
sion will be listened to with the keeHeSt
attention by the whole country. AS
Judge MACDONALD pointed out in his
learned contribution to yesterday morn
ing'S GLOBE, this is not the first time the
subject has been before congress. AS
early as 1877 free coinage act passed
the lower branch by non-partisan vote
of 164 to "a, and since then the agitation
has been renewed at each successive
session. A year ago the senate showed
majority in its favor, and it met with
defeat in the house only because
the tyrant who then controlled its
deliberations was opposed to its en-
aetment. This paper is not among
those which would prefer to have the
debate postponed to some more con-
venient season. 1t does not see how
any advantage is to be gained by pro-
crastination, and, in its view, full and
frank expression of opinion can be
productive of 10 harm. The question is
not a partisan, but sectional one.
Every Democratic representative from
the New England and Middle states,
with one exception, is against the pro-
posed bill. Practically all the Souteern
members, and all those from the min
eral states of the far West, are in its
favor. The delegations from the rest
of the country are divided. JOHN LIND,
the only Republican from Minnesota, is
a violent free silver man, and Messrs.
CASTLE and HALL, who are Demo
Gratis. are staunch on the other side.
The Republican press, in the hope
of obscuring the tariff issue, has
craftily endeavored to hide these
facts, and to throw the responsibility
or the credit on the Democratic
party. When vote is finally taken the
futility of this attempt will appear.
Much public enlightenment will result
from these three days of argument.
Every one who has studied the subject
will have an opportunity to speak, and
the people will have at hand whatever
can be said on one side or the other.
What we all need is education, and if
we read the reports of what congress
may do at this time we shall get it. Let
US have no muzZling. no hypocrisy, no
timidity. When the friends of free
coinage and its enemies have explained
their position we shall understand the
situation better, and be equipped to
form an intelligent Judgment.

is not widely illustrated. if generally
understood, in this country.
IN THE HOLE. TOO.

Congressman DINGLEY, one of the
most Strenerous anti-silYer Republicans
in the house, made an elaborate speech
consideration of the BLAND bill. OF
course. the brunt of his argument was
that the business interests required
speedy settlement of the question, but
he showed that his special motive was
10 put the Democratic party Sin hole"
as it is phrased. EX-Speaker REED was
still more imperative in his demand for
an early date. More than three -fourths
OF the Republicans who profess to be
opposed to free coinage voted with the
friends of the measure, regardless of
the fact that their action afforded
great encouragement to the real
friends of the policy. But the
Democrats are not the only parties who
have Interests involved in this speedy
action. Tom REED and others acting
with him are hostile to HARRISON, and
they would have him put in hole''
also. His position is not in question. If
the bill reaches him, he will be forced to
veto it. This he hopes to avoid till after
the nominating convention. A veto be-
fore that time would lose him the vote
at Minneapolis of all the slver-mining
states. 1t might be exceedingly embar-
RAISING to have Colorado, Nevada,
Wyoming. Montana, Nebraska, South
Dakota, and other free silver states
added to the opposition to him i'll
convention He would have little
hope in the face of R veto of
carrying these Republican states
either at Minneapolis or at the election.
They might be able to turn the scale
AGAINST him in the convention. This
fact is we'll understood by REED and all
the Republicans unfriendly to the presi-
dent. He is as much concerned to have
action on the bill deferred as any Demo
crat can possibly be. 1t is improbable
that the measure can pass the house
without Republican aid, and it must
obtain large part of the Republican
side of the senate to effect passage in
that body. The responsibility will be
divided between the parties.

ALL JUDGED INSANE.
Verd let of the Jury on Seiboldt's
LyncherS.


DARLINGTON. Wis. March 21.-The
jury in the Seiboldt lynchIng case re-
turned a verdict at 9:l5 D. M, finding
at the time of the lynching all of the de-
PENDANTS were insane. and therefore not
guilty as charged, and that Alonzo Tay-
lor, John E. Meighan and Hezekian An
drews have not recovered. They will
probably be sent to the Mendoza hospi-
tai tomorrow. The others were dis
charged.
DARLINGTON, Wis, March 21.-An
hour before court opened this morning
the court room was crowded with peO-
pie anxious to hear the closing argu-
ments of counsel on the special
plea of insanity in the trial of the
men indicted for the hanging OF Seiboldt
in September last. w. G. Garter occu-
pied all of the forenoon in his plea
for the prosecution. He urged upon the
jury the fact that the defendants could
not have been the law-abidlng citizens
they were proven to be and have been
insane Taking up the case of each
one separately, he showed where the
proof of insanity was lacking, and asked
the jury to decide the case on the evil
dence and not in accordance with their
SympathieS.
In the afternoon the court room was
crowded to its utmost capacity. Judge
Rose made a very able and eloquent
plea. Dwelling on the fact that such
men as the defendants, if sane, would
not commit the act charged against
them, he went over the evidence.
After the conclusion of his plea, the
judge charged the jury and they retired
to consider the case at o'clock.
The judge in charging the jury said
that every sane man who took part in
the hanging of Sieooldt was guilty of
murder in the first degree. He then
took up the subject of insanity. He
said no act is considered an act
of an insane person unless such
an act the offspring of mental
disease. Speaking of passion, the jurors
must not confound irresistible impulse
in an insane person with passionate
impulse, no matter how strong, in sane
person. In conclusion, he said that if
the jury had reasonable doubt as to the
insanity or sanity of the defendants they
should find them insane.
