Look back upon what was said of Lincoln,
or of Washington himself and see whether
greatness can escape the tongue OF pen of
envy. That Columbus was mortal man
We are not disposed to deny. But if you
would jusge by the fit of his clothes, do
not dress him up in the costume of present
usages, ideas an habits and thus try him
by your modern scales.
Men are alike in every age and like cir
cumstances will produce like results.
leave Columbus TO your thoughts. He was
a Catholic, Roman Catholic, devoted
Catholic. Forgive him that. There was
nothing else known to Christendom except
in the schism of the East or in the obscure
corners of the West. If he was Catholic,
so were the Cabots from England, and all
the navigators of his time and for century
after him.

not deny that he was man, mortal man,

 "O'Dowd's Neighbors," funny Irish comedy, with plenty of songs and some dances, and splendid character acting, was presented last night to a good audi ence and pleased and amused as usual. It has been here several times and always carried the audience. Mark Murphy IS a capital actor and fully equals Barry in most respects, but sur- passes him in a certain ineness of character touch. The company is a nice one and rendered the play very effectively. Times. At the opera house Thursday evening.
 "The Voodoo.''
 Managers Frank w. Sanger and Gus BOthner, the proprietors of''The Voodoo, or; A Lucky Charm," have more plot in this new comedy than most any of its kind on the stage to day. There are number of very funny situations and incidents, and the dialogue is sparkling, bright and fresh, the action is based upon the desire of superstitious woman to obtain Voodoo, known as a lucky charm, which shall enable her to become suddenly wealthy. The charm in this instance which she obtains from a VOOdOo whom she has applied to for it, is to obtain seven hairs, plucked from the beard of man possessing auburn whiskers, affixing them in clarified wax, and attach with red seal to a lottery ticket, which will then draw the capi- tai prize. The man possessing these dis tinct faclal peculiarities is found in one Michael O'Brady and an amusing chase at once ensues. At the opera house Wednesday evening.
 Oliver Dowd Byron.
 "The Plunger' drew fair-sized audi ence to the opera house last night and was presented in good shape. It is not the equal of Byron's old play, "Across the Continent" however.
