ADJUSTMENTS.

Rose CoEhIan IN "DOrothy's Dilemma"
win be seen at the Grand Opera H ouse
tonight and at -morrow's matinee. The
piece has been a decided success The
story is clean, interesting and affords q
fund Of entertainment. The real interest
ia the play happens where Dorothy Bar
ing, unprecedented by Miss Coghan,
assumes the disguise OF an English
officer in order 10 win the man she loves,
who is betrothed to one he does not love
nor does his fancee love him. As may
be judged from the fact that
Doro5hy appears in uniform, the
circumstance is apt TO lead to compiled
tions. The sc snes resulting from this in
cident are highly amusing. There Is
some music Of a pleasing order and dane
ing Of a graceful and refined kind. which
add much to the enjoyment Of the play.
Miss Coghlan's support is one Of the
strongest that has ever toured the coun-
try aud inducing John 7. Sullivan, Viii
liam Redmund. Thomas Whlffen, Edward
PEPPER, John s. Marble, Helen Russell,

sist Of "Drifted Apart curtain raiser

duced in New York by Miss Coghlsn last

How II Reptile Traps Fishes.

There is Il species of tcrrapin Mt the
London Geological gardens which is in
the fortunate position of not having to
work for n living. Like the children in
the fairy tale, it has simply to open it's
mouth and food will drop in. In the
mouth of the reptile is little tag of
flesh which is in continual vibration,
and nearly always visible. for the crca-
ture remains open-mouthed for hours
together. 1t is believed that the sight
of this is particularly alluring to the
piscine mind. The fish commits the
very pardonable, though fatal, error of
installing the process for wriggling
worm. In trying to take the bait it is
caught in u trap and swallowed Rams
Horn
