Taken Prisoner by His Brother.

the writer. "We were raised in Ken

that state, split on the slavery question.

hanging around Beauregard's headquarters
one day on pretext of negotiating for
supplies, when my brother, in the full un-
form of Confederate colonel, came up.
He made no sign of recognition, and after
transacting his business passed out. When
I left the room I found him waiting for
me. He took me by the arm and said:
"sYou are nv brother, but you are q
Yankee spy. Consider yourself under ar
rest
"That was equivalent to q sentence of
death, for at that stage of the war a spy
could expect no clemency.
"'Will,' said I, believing that he was
joking, let us walk over to your tent and
talk 1t over

he was in no joking humor; he meant to
hand me over to the executioner. His love
for the Confederate cause had become ia
naticiam. and he was prepared to play the
elder Brutus. had made all nay prspara-
lions to leave camp and my. horse was al
ready saddled. In fact, was mounting
to ride away, when my unnatural brother
intercepted me. I was about to appeal to
his mercy, when he reiterated with vicious
emphasis: You are my brother, but you
are id Yankee spy and should be
hanged That angered me and replied,
well, so be it, AT that instant q band

rent with the wellknown rebel yell. We
were alone in the tent. He was . small

As we rose to pass into the open air
struck him a terrible blow with my fist,
knocking him senseless. I then walked
quickly out of the tent, mounted my
horse and rode away at sharp trot. I
was nearly clear of the picket-line be-
fore I was pursued, and, as was well
mounted, easily outrode my pursuers. I
heard afterward that my brother was
broken for letting me get away, but the
news did not cause me to lose much sleep"

HYPERION THEATER.

At the Hyperion theater tomorrow
evening Gus Williams will present his new
musical farce comedy, "April Fool" An
exchange says of the play: 1t is musical
eccentricity, brimful of ludicrous situa-
lions and novel specialties, prominent
among the latter being Ross and Fenton,
Americas foremost travesty artists, and
Gertrude Reynolds, who presents. an
"April Foow dance, said to be as sensa-
tional as either the ''gaiety" or "serpen-
tine" dance. Miss Lillian Elma, Gertrude
Hill, Maria 3onesal, Lou Jackson and
Frank Girard are also prominent in the
support.
At the Hyperion last evening fair
sized audience Witnessed the production of
Daniel Sabel's company, in the beautiful
American comedy drama "The Old, Old
Story" The company was much above
the average. Redfeld Clark as Philip
Harleigh, Young Englishman, Miss
Fanny Mcintyre as Louise Schuyler, and
Miss Edith lotion as Edith Bliss, were the
favorites, but the rest of the company
were all very good in their different roles,
and the play was deserving of very much
larger house. The program of this season
was first used last evening and is very
neat in appearance.
THE NEW CITY DIRECTORY.
Russells comedians will be the attrac-
ton at the Hyperion next Monday even
ing with all the old favorites in the cast,
including Americas greatest dancer,
Amelia Glover.
NEW HAVEN OPERA HOUSE.
There Is about the usual quality of dia-
logue to sThe Kid" that OCCURS in the
general run of the farce comedies, and it
has about the same object in view, viz, to
introduce plenty of dancing and special
ties. Naturally all cannot be stars in q
company of comedians, but there is plenty
Of talent in 'sThe Kid" company to please
an audience and to make them forget bust
ness of the day. Miss Dottie Pine is one
of the youngest of soubrette stars, and ap-
proaches the requirements of frst-class
India rubber girl, by the way that she
easily bends and twists in her Carmencieta
turnings and twistings. Sickness pre-
vented Miss Gertrude Fort from appearing
at the matinee, but in the evening she
made good her absence of the afternoon.
The features of the performance were
heartily applauded, and undoubtedly the
business Win be yesy large.
On Thursday Frank I. Ffsyne, the
popular young actor, will appear IN 1.-THE
