I" SHlNG-C CHING"
stahrs New Opera Greeted by n Large
Audispce Lat Night.

Lhht NlGuts
Richard Stshl'snew comic opera. "Shing-
CLing"-which, as the name indicates. is Of
the "Cbinese style-was produced last
night at the Academy of Music before an
audience that packed the playhouse.
"Shing- Ching" 10 magnlhcently staged,
the scenery is of the most exquisite order,
the costumery of the troupe IS elegant, and
embodies the most beautiful conception Of
the Celestial dress and Monaghan pomp.
OF the members OF the troupe, IL Is only
fair to say that their merits far exceed the
work of the librettist. for the lives lack
the snap. vIvacity and brightness which
are SO needful in comic opera. At times
the humor of the play develops itself in
little side remarks and expressions. but
the laugh producing dialogue and the oli-
max Is wanting and their want Is felt.
Tho music, too, Is on the whole, devoid of
that indefnable something which catches
the masses. but at times It breaks into the
sunshine of melody and carries the audi
ence INTO realms OF pleasure. The Whis-
ting Chorus is perhaps the musical feature
of the play, and truly, as rendered by the
company, II is well calculated to please.
The little song. Its different when yon
love-" likewise pleased the audience
greatly.
Fred Frear. the same genial. rolly-
holy" comedian as of old, carried of the
laurels OF the evening with his looks.
winks, GESTURES, ana clever sayings. As
Bi-Kloride, the red-headed mandarin, be
was most excellent. and all that funny
red-headed Chinaman could be expected
to be.
Mr.. John J. Rafael. the leading tenor.
whose voice always wins him admiration
before Richmond audience. was fully up
to his old standard. though Ed. Connolly
was perhaps little handicapped by his
role of ki-An-Pep, the Emperor. which
really affords no scope for clever work.
Misses Villa knox, Lea Van Dyck. and
Mabella Baker are all well up in their re-
spective parts and sing most excellently.
Miss Van Dyck is exceedingly pretty. and.
with trife more animation in her work.
she would easily be the peoples fayorite
of the lady members of the troupe.
"Shing-Ching will be again presented
at matinee this afternoon. and will like
wise be produced tonight and tomorrow
night.

SHOT BY A LUNATIC.
4 New York Man win Probably Die
From the EGscts OF the Wound.

New YORK, Oct. 3o.-At $3.50 this after
noon q crazy man, said to bo named
Thomas Bradley, shot and probably ia
tally wounded Frederick Matthics, super
intendent OF construction OF tho new
Postal Telegraph building on Broadway.
Bradley was locked up in the hall police
station last night as suspicious charac-
ter, but was released this morning. Tho
workmen about tho Postal building say
he was loaiing around all day, hiding be-
hind piles ofbrick. This afternoon he came
out and said the police and Superintendent
Matthies were trying to murder him for
stealing 500. Soon after, he stepped to
Matthies and deliberately fred two shots
into his stomach. An infuriatol mob
quickly gathered and ID policemen had n
difficult task to get the murderer out.
Tho workiugmcn in the building and other
members of tho mob wanted to lynch him.
Bradley hid behind pile of cornico ma
teriai. revolver in hand. The police fired
number of shots and ordered him TO
come ont. Bradley finally came out on q
run. and when tho policemen seized him,
fought like a wild cat. II required a severe
clubbing to subiue him, aud when tho
policeman finally got him out, ho was n
sorry looking sight. Hs was taken to the
station and tho crowd dispersed.

iermined, firm and patient you can win.

Remember that the strongest and most
intelligent leadership is on the part OF tho
siivcrite sido. Grover Cleveland Is inpo.
tent. Tho cry for repeal is simply whim
of his. Is the United States senate going
to yield to an Irresponsible presidents
whim?
On the Goth he wrote: "Hold the fort,
the president is about to give up the fight !:
but when certain persons like John Sher-
man and Banker Benedict of New York,
terminated him; II you hold out YOU are
sure to win. They dare not attempt

cncc in the senate owing to his unsavory
record in New York. The president has
become tircl and will give up in despair
IL you delay voto as long as possible by
every means at your command
Hc adds a postscript to this note, in
which he says: IL have done and shall
continue to do my duty"
The silver senators paid no attention to
these cards for the reason that since the
silver fi.ht began they havo been rcceiv-
ing many OF similar nature from all
parts Of the country and from people APP
parently excited on both sides OF the ques.

CHICAGO. Oct. 30.-Prendergast, who
shot and killed Mayor Harrison OH Satur-
day night. apparently slept souudly from
midnight till this morning, when tho
Changing Of the cell bolts, moved by the
turnkeys, awaked him.
He sat nioodily on n couch, refusing to
talk till breakfast was brought him. Then
ho frightened up and ate il with apparent
relish. Then he came to the front Of the
coll, listened with apparent interest TO tho
jibes going about among the prisoners.
When reporter for the associated press
approached him OH tho subject of tho
assassination he gave monosyllabic re.
plies at first. but finally repeated his
former assertion that his reason for tho
deed was that the mayor had deceived
him and betrayed him, and he took that
means OF getting even. declaring he was
justified In SO doing.
Pendcrgrast was indicted 10y tho grand
Jury for murder. When told of the grand
jury's action, the prisoner merely took n
cigar out OF his mouth and said, WELL
A special meeting OF tho members OF
the city council was held this morning. at
