IS clipped from an exchange on the per-

There was an outpouring Of people re-
sembling a cloudburst to see Richards &
Pringle's Georgia Minstrels 1t was the
first entertainment of the season, and the
management of the house found
itself overtaxed by the unexpected
crowd; but every one was polite
and obliging, and a little expe-
rience will remedy all the causes for com
plant. The minstrels gave an excellent
performance, free from the lower order of
jokes, and the audience were well salts
fled with the performance. Billy Ker-
sands was as usual, a small army in him

play is simple story of woman's weak
ness and mans devotion told in good
English, with an easily defined plot. 1t
gives, however, faithful picture of
English north country life The special
features introduced are strong and orig
inal, making the entertainment doubly
interesting and attractive. The special

A Murderer Escapes.

JACKSON, Mich, March 27.-Irving
Latimer, the famous matricide, has cs-
capped from State prison. He got out by
getting the keys and walking out of the
front door of the prison. Capt. Gill, in
charge of the prison at night, is in Jail
now. It is supposed that Latimer got
possession of some powerful drug and
administered it to Haight, the guard
and night turnkey, who died from its e.
fleets at o'clock this morning. Latimer
brutally murdered his own mother at
Jackson on the night of January oath,
1889, and was sentenced to life impris-
onment. His father died under suspi-
cious circumstances year previous to
the murder, and it is believed that the
son poisoned him. Gill, the night
keeper of the prison, was the indirect
means OF the escape OF Latimer. He
has been clearly bamboozled by Lati-
mer, who has been telling Gill that
there was $500 buried on an island in
the State of Rhode Island, where Lati-
mer's father lived. Gill was taken
with this story and had Latimer out to
lunch every night to give him details.
Gill expected to leave prison in three
weeks. Last night Latimer told Gill q
lot of stories about the buried fortune,
during which time he placed him under
the influence of the drug, placing it in
a glass of lemonade which Gill drank.
Latimer then obtained possession OF
the keys and made his escape.

Liberal Party Tactics.

LONDON, Mar. pa liberal party
meeting was held at the Foreign office
to-day, under the presidency of Premier
Gladstone, to discuss the position OF
business and the course of the liberals
in parliament. 1t was proposed by
Mr.. Gladstone that the Irish
home rule bill should be put
on a second reading on April 9th, and
that the home rule bill should have
precedence of all other business every
day except Wednesdays. The Rt. Hon.
VIM. Vernon Harcourt, chancellor of
the exchcquer, said that if the liberal
party only acted with prudence and ac-
cording to proper rules of discipline,
they would soon carry to q successful
issue the glorious policy with which the
nation has entrusted them.
