who could simulate such a frenzied,
wild and terror-stricken condition as
Matthias exhibits. 1t was the acme of
human misery and despair.
The effect was greatly heightened by
the staging of the dream scene. The

pale light that shone upon the dis
traught Matthias. When he turned his

Bells" il is certainly far preferable to
dissipate its gloom by the sunshine of
Nance OldfeId." and so dismiss the
audience in happy, genial mood.
1.-The Bells" was adapted by Leopold
Lewis from French play founded on
"The Polish jew" The scene is laid
in Alsace in 1888. 1t is a psycholog-
ical melodrama entirely devoid of plot
or dramatic incidents. other than Gre
ated by the horrible dreams of tor
tured conscience. Matthias, the well-to-
do burgomaster of the village, murdered
a Polish Jew fifteen years before the
action of the play begins. Matthias was
an innkeeper then, and he killed the
Jew for his money, which he needed to
save him from ruin. The Jew had
stopped at the inn for a few
hours one cold winters night to
rest himoelf and his horse. After
he had resumed his journey, Matthias
left the inn and lay in wait for his vic
tim and killed him. Then he dragged
the body to a lime kiln which he owned,
and cast it in, where it was consumed.
Some of the Jews blood-stained gar
ments were found. but nothing more.
Matthias prospered from that time OH.
When the play opens his daughter is to
be married to Christian, manly young
officer. Matthias is devoted husband
and father. He admires his prospective
soL-in-law and approves of the
match. 1t SO happens that Chris
tian has heard the story of the
Polish Jew. and, being ambitious to
rise, he tells Matthias that ne has been
reading over all of the dispositions taken
when the murder was Investigated,
and that he has hit upon~a new theory
accounting for the disappearance of the
body. What is that theory? Matthias
asks. Why. answers Christian, there
were several lime kilns burning In the
vicinity at the time of the murder, and
the body was probably thrown into one
of them. Well. what of that? Matthias
asks; but he is chilled to the
heart when Christian says that
it might be we'll to inquire who owned
the kilns then. But, with superhuman
effort, Matthias conceals his terror be-
hind horrid laugh, as he exclaims,
'..Why, recollect. L owned a lime kiln
thenp' After this Matthias hastens the
signing of the marriage contract. for he
cannot make this dangerous young man
his son-in-law too soon. The contract
is signed, and Matthias presents his
daughter with her marriage doWry,
1000 francs. Then he breathes easier,
But he is far from being at rest. He is
haunted by the ringing of the sleigh
bells which he heard while lying
in wait for the Polish Jew
that fatal night. He hears
them, but no one else does. He is
seated in his own house, one night just
fifteen years after the murder, when,
jingle. jingle, jingle, jingle sound the
bells. AS soon as he realizes that no
body else hears them, he is terror
stricken. When left alone he again
hears them, and, turning around, ne

full admire1. Nothing to equal the exquis-
ite charm of Miss Terry's impersCnation
of this role can De imagined by those
who have not witnessed it. 1t was a
revelation. Miss Terry is unquestion-
ably the most finished comedienne on
the English-speaking stage. Her art is
so perfect that she does not even seem
to act. She is marvel of SpOntaneity.
Words drop from her lips as though
they had just flashed into her mind.
Her every action seems to be the
prompting of sudden impulse. When
you add to such qualities a voice
peculiarly musical, face capable of ex-
pressing the most delicate shades of
meaning, and presence altogether
charming. the combination is sure to be
as irresistible as it is rare. 1t is doubt
full if ST. Paul audience ever wit
messed a m ore delightful performance
than that of "Nane Oldfeld" last even
ing. Miss Terry was simply
perfection. She acted only when
she spoke the lines of Young
OldWorthy's tragedy. 1t wa most
refreshing experience to witness such
finished acting. Alfred Bishop de-
serves warm praise for his commend
able impersonation of the young poet.
This afternoon Mr.. Irving and Miss
Terry will be seen in 1.-The Merchant of

of bis mind were reflected IN his face
with rare distinctness. The actors
mobile countenance, expressive eyes
and sensitive mouth spoke vol
umes. Words were hardly needed.
Every movement told of the torture
he was suffering. Mr.. Irving's Pc
culiar gait and hammered speech,
while they attracted attention at
first, were lost sight of as the play
progressed. The reality of the man ab-
sorbed all sympathy, and the peculiari-
ties of the actor were forgotten. in the
dialogue with Christian, Mr.. IrviQgs
consummate art manifested itself with
great effect. But it was in the dream
scene that Mr.. Irving evinced the height
of dramatic power. Throughout the
whole of it, the audience remained

scription. No actor was ever seen here

Texas Is Busted

FORT WORTH, Tex, Sept. 29.-The
treasury of the state of Texas has obli-
cations to meet Oct. l with half the
money necessary to pay. When the
present term of Gov. Hogg began
there was S1,O00,OO0 of available
cash. Appropriations in excess of the
comptroIler's estimate of possible re-
ceipts are the cause of the pres
ent trouble. Gov. Hogg has suggested
as solution that clerks in the depart
ments do not take their pay for thirty or
sixty days, and has also sent out
secret circular to all county and district
officials getting fees or salaries from the
state, asking that they withhold their
demands for thirty or sixty days, rely
ing on their patriotism and friendship
to the government to give him this
qualification.

SENATOR'S COMPROMISE.
Concessions Made by Both on the
Silver Question.

Silver Question.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.-The Demo
cratic repeal senators have practically
given up the idea that the Sherman law
can be repealed unconditiOEa ally, and
have. after numerous conferences, de-
cided upon a compromise, which, they
believe, will end the long fight and Sc
cure the passage of hill to re-
lieve the present situation by
the end of next week. Senator
German and other Democratic re-
peal senators have been actively en-
gagged in arranging the terms of the
compromise, and tonight they believe
they have succeeded. 1t involves con-
cessiOn Oh both sides; first, the repeal
of the purchase clause; second, the
coinage of a specified amount of 81, ,500,-
900 per month until the total silver coin
age is 800, 100000; then the coinage of
ali the silver bullion in the treasury,
and, fourth, the sale of gold
bonds to increase the gold re-
serve to an amount which will be
deemed sufficient to insure the main
tenance of gold and silver money at
parity. Wnen the proposition was sub
mitted to Secretary Carlisle he insisted
upon the latter provision to the agree
ment. 1t is the general understanding
tonight that the silver Republican sena-
tors will agree to this compromise. In
deed, Senator German vouches for
that. The only thing in the way of this
programme now seems TO be the preSi-
dent. He has not, 50 far as known, alb
Solutely given his consent, although
the acQuieScence of Secretary Carlisle
would indicate that he would do so.

dent seemed to represent both parties.

FINANCIAL FACTS.

Bradstreet on the Course of Spec
uIation.
New YORK, Sept. 29.-Bradstreet's
financial review says: Speculation at
the close of the present week displays
tendency to respond to the influence OF
renewed hopes for an early vote in the
senate on the silver repeal measure.
The firmer tone and small higher range
of stock values which this involves
succeeds condition of extreme dullneSS
in the market, coupled with symptoms
of impending liquidation. While the
situation at Washington and the dis
cOuragement to both business and
speculation involved i'll the SEN
ate'S lOng-drawn delay was the
chief factor in awakening a OearlSn teel-
ing in Wall street, the market was also
affected unfavorably by the fear OF re-
newed gold exports TO Europe, all appre-
hension JUSTIFIED by the advance of
sterling exchange rates to S4.S7M. There
is reason TO conclude that the inactive
and discouraged sentiment Of the mar
ket has been accompanied by certain
amount of liquidation of long holdings
taken by the public through commission
houses during the August paulc, these
offerings being sufficient to supply to
some extent the requirements OF the
short interest. The latter ele-
ment, it may be noted, Is
maini composed of small TRADERS,
the larger class of spectators, with one
prominent exception. being apparently
averse to taking any decided position
while the situation at Washington is

upon similar line and has shown little

successive phases of the silver fight

TYRONE, Pa, Sept. 29.-Samuel n.
Williams, chief clerk of the Tyrone post
office, was arrested this morning by
Special Inspectors w. w. Dickson and
Ii. B. Gribbs. of the postoffice depart
ment, charged with opening and alb
stracting money from registered letters.
Since Aug. % numerous complaints
have been made to the post
Office department that registered
letters had been ritied in
this vicinity, and detectives were sent
to ferret out the thief, with the above
result. Williams said he did not do it
from need or desire for money, but SIM
ply from an unexplainable mania for
opening letters. This statement is ver-
flied. as. after his arrest, he restored all
the stolen money, amounting to nearly
$500. to the officers. He was taken to
Altoona this afternoon, where he will
have a hearinr before United States

behalf of the vigorous movement that
has set i'll for the admission of Okla
homa as state will transmit to con-
gress some very impressive facts and
figures. Oklahoma was organized OH
the 22d day of April, 1882 AT that
time its population was nearly
62.0G0. In 1892 its voters numbered 22,-
600. 1t is claimed by the statehood ex-
ecutive committee that the settlement
of the Cherokee strip has brought the
population up to 275, 600, and the taxable
wealth of the territory to $4,000, 900.
These figures bring the population to a
higher point than that of any other ter
ritory at the time of admission.
