The New Play By Editor Easton
Outlined as to Subject and
Plot.
Editor w. f. Easton, formerly of
the Texas World, the colored peo-
pies paper, has written another
stirring drama, much as a sequel to
his success "Dessalines," which
was produced in this city some
months ago.
By request he has given the
LIGHT the description Of tho new
play:
"The drama l have now in prep
aration is entitled "Christophe," a
tragedy of four-acts. 1t is a story
of the usurpation of imperial pow
ers by Dessallnes, and his assassi-
nation, at the instigation of his
rival, Christophe. This is the Sec
ond scene OF the 1st act.
The following acts describe
the succession of Christie
phe, the civil war that
follows and the suicide of Christie
phe, in the last act and the be-
ginning Of the first "Republique
D'Haiti."
The following is a short synop-
sis Of "Christophe:"
Scene lst. Jardin des Fleurs,
Port au Prince. Hatiens celebrat-
ing coronation of Dessalines, En-
peror; murmurs of discomfort;
plighted vows of Amedi and Va
leri. The conspiracy, overheard by
Amedi; AlphoEse de Payo, the
chosen assassin.
Scene =. Court of Emperor. Ar
rest Of Amedi. Entrance of Dessa-
lines. The repeal Of the constitu-
ton. Dessslines, allow should

ment must be the skin of French

blood our ink and bayonet our

sion and death of Valerie. Vive

| have endeavored to make Of
Christophe a strong acting play.
Like the first drama the characters
are all blacks and men of color.
The main facts are historical. The
turbulent times of Hayti presentan
ineXhaustible treasury OF first rate
highly colored dramatic material,

way, to make the most Of it, in
series of Hayti tales, have now in
preparation, including Toussalnt

interest you take in my efforts, in
literary way,
am very respectfully,
