LAST week a testimonial banquet was
rendered to Patrick Donahoe, the founder
Of the Boston Pilot, in commemmoration
of his 8Oth birthday. About 300 OF the
most distinguished citizens of Massachu-
sets met at the fremont House in honor
of the veteran journalist, and some OF the
leading men of the country sent letters
expressing their regret at being unable
to attend in person. Among them we're
Cardinal Gibbons, several bishops, OK
governors and congressman. DR.. Edward
Everett Hale sent his regrets and regards
to his venerable friend. In responding
to the toast to his health Mr.. Donahoe
said that though born in Ireland, which
he loved, his seventy years in Boste n
made him thorough Bostonian and q
lover of Massachusetts, and the United
States. May the grand old man attain
the age Of 100 years before he goes to his
reward for duty nobly done for faith and
fatherland.

Not a Coxeyite.

j. Murray, of West Duluth, writes
to The IRISH STANDARD, disclaiming any
and all connection with the Coxey army
in that section. The inference Of ou1
regular correspondent at that point that
Mr.. Murray was mildly troubled with
Coxeyism is vigorously and most emphat
really denied by that gentleman and
should be accepted as gospel truth. This
is in justice to Mr.. Murray who rises in hie
manhood to resent the dolorlferous im'
puta,ion that he is disciple of Mr.
Coxey, formerly of Ohio, but now in close
proximity to the national capitol steps
where an earnest endeavor is being made
to keep him off the grass.

ROMANTIC ACTORS.

Limited in Number and O'Neil! stand.
First Among Them.
~. In .th public estimation among 70
mantle actors, O'Neill stands facile prin
oeps. He has the picturesquenees o.
Fechter, whose successor he may well
be called, and he possesses even IN
greater degree Fechter's poetic charm
and Feohter's kinlling power.
His face is beautiful beautiful in its
cameo-like profile, and beautiful in it's
mobile expression. His eyes are large
and lustrous, dreamy in repoee, flashing
in action. His mouth is sensitive, yet
firm; the shade of sadness blending with
it's smile, giving strange interest to the
whole countenance. His movements are
grace itself; his attitudes are naturally
picturesque.
His voice is rich, mellow and musical
and 1t is susceptible Of a wide range OF
expression. His speech is just tinged
with bit of the brogue, which adds
rather than detracte from his many sing
ular graces. The role of Dantes demon
strsted his mastery Of the technique OF
stage art as it exhibits the versatility of
his talents. Whether as the rollicking,
nimble sailor of the prologue, the eman-
cipated convict making his bold strike for
liberty. the gentle voiced, sad-eyed
priest, or the opulent Count of Monte
Christie, he is equally effective. Each
phase of this complex character is per
fectly shown, and the rapid alienation
of the primal passicns-love, hate, re.
venge,-is powerfully exhibited.
No scene is unreal or improbable in
which O'Neill appears; he shuts the door
on reason, turns the key, and we sit en-
tranced beneath the wondrous spell OF
the actor who can ~conjure MS away
from the actual, clothe dreams with
lesh and blood, create a new world
which we take in faith without a ques
zion, and charm us with its heroes and
heir stupendous exploits. And after all
is not this ideal world, glittering with
ine people, soft with the roselight of ro-
mantle passion, flashing with chiyalrio
adventures better world to be trans.
ported to by the witchery of the stage
than that sordid, brutal, deadening
world OF the NEW school" drama, VIII SO
apostles are now seeking converts
among us?
For his engagement at the Grand the
asst three nights of next week, Mr..
ONeiI will present the ever welcome
ssMonte Christie" on Thursday and Sat
araay nights, and Friday evening will
give us another test of his versatility by |
appearing as 'Virainius" in Sheridan |!

partner. Frederick L. Hall. who composed
the firm of Charles L. Webster & Co. book

flee at the close of business on Wednesday
The assignee is Bainbridge Colby, of 40
Wall street. The assignment was without
preference and signed by Mr.. Clemens,
The assignment was complete surprise
and is said to be on account of the failure
of the firm to obtain money which they
confidently expedited to get to meet obliga-
tions just maturing. The business was
started under the present firms name on
May 1, 1884. The firm started to publish
the works of Mark twain, but afterward
the works of other authors. Their certain
resources in the business amouted to $3.50,

The Ship Canal.

At a recent meeting OF the merchants and
manufactures Association of Baltimore
Col. W. P. Craighill made an address on
the advantage to accrue to Baltimore from
the construction of the Chesapeake & Del
aware ship canal. He said that while as
United States officer he could could not
advocate any special route for this water
way, he would like to see the best route
selected. The straight. course surveyedIunder
his direction, he said, was certainly the
most desirable, but its cost would be con :.
siderably greater than that of the Sassafras
Choptank and other routes that have been
suggested. 1t should be insisted, he said,
that this canal, if built, should be at least
100 feet wide and 27 feet throughout. This
would insure uninterrupted passage for
vessels of the heaviest draught. Colonel
Craighill added that by the improved
methods invented since he made his last
estimate of the probable cost of the work.
he thought it could be built for much less
than any estimate heretofore given. Gen.
Felix Agnus also made an address on the
subject. He reviewed the six routes for
the proposed ship canal which have been
surveyed by Government engineers, stating
that the straight route from Queenstown to
the sea was the one he would advocate The
length Of this route would be 1O7 miles,
with 54 miles af actual canal, the time Of
transit II hours, and the saving in distance
2lS miles. The canal would cost $20, ,0OO,-
900, and he thought the United States ought
to be willing to invest $50 OOO, 900 to save
225 miles and provide the shortest possible
route to the commerce Of the world-a route
that would be open day and night, year in,
year out, and that would become great
highway Of trade for the ships of all ma
TORS.
