There is one act on the bill at Won. derland this week that is worth going miles to see, and that is the representa- tion of the ancient glsdiators as given by tha Brothers Lsondor. Both the brothers are the perfection of manly form, and are possessed of remarkable strength, and the feats they perform would even cause some of the ancient strong men to "hustle'' for their laurels. The entire performance this week is good. Manager Poli announces for next week the appearance of the famous little man, Prince Tinymite.

Entertainments.

It was not very large audience which heard the revival of Lester Wallack's de- lightful military comedy drama "Rose- dale" The play itself is superb and 1t was presented by superb company. Not for
 a single moment did the interest flag. In the company are Joseph Haworth as ''Eliot Grey" William Mestsyer as "Bunbsrry Kobb," causing with Haworth most of the merriment, and Frank J. Ksenan as "Mile s
 McKenns." Keensn's acting was excellent and the whole entertainment was highly enjoyed by the audience.
 To morrow evening Hoyt's merry com edy IA Trip to Chinatown" will be pre- sented. The Waterbury Republican of
 Wednesday ssys: IA Trip to Chinatown"
 was witnessed by the largest audience of
 the season at the opera house last night
 and heartily enjoyed. The company was
 the No. l company and was excellent.
 Geraldine McCann as the "Widow" was as
 dashipg ss one could wish. Frank Lane
 ss the remarkable '.Wellandstrong," and
 Edward See as "Bsn Gay" were an anus
 ing team. Madge Dean was clever ss
 "Willie Grow" John P. Brawn proved
 to be wonderful whistler. Lottie Morti-
 mer as 'Flirt," the widows maid, was a splendid combination of figure and vivaci- ty, and her dancing specialties were much enjoyed. Sale of eeats now open. GRAND OPERA HOUSE.
 The farce comedy of "O'Dowd's Neigh
 bors" will bs seen here tonight and to- morrow night, with special matinee Satur- day. In the course of the excitement the following are among the selections: An opening chorus by the O'Dowd quartet, Messrs. Which, Reynolds, Roberts and Riggs, which is received with great snthu. siasm nightly, the voices being spoken of by New York papers as fairly rivalling the celebrated Clipper quartet.
 Probably the song "Michael Dooley" by Mr. Murphy makes the hit of the perform snce. Judging from the old saying, "Mske extremes meet," 1t strikes one af being peculiar that the celebrated selection from "Lucia di Lammermoor" sung by the sextet, should follow the comedy selection ''Two Little Girls in Green" Still, this is the nature of things with 'O'Dowd's NeiRhbors." Nothing has been thought of or said in New York in five years which was funny that cannot be discovered iu "O'Dowd's Neighbors.
 The attraction the first three days next week, with matinees Tuesday and Wednes
 day, will be "The Dark Side of Great City."

so held that any attempt in the body
of tariff act to distinguish between
the qualities and levy greater or less
specific duties by reason of such
difference will make the act itself
cumbersome and unwieldy. Both
arguments have considerable base,
but the general concensus of opinion,
in all countries having a more or less
protective tariff system, is in favor of
the specific plan.
The Evening Post, of Louisville,
some time since made an offer to all
its Kentucky readers to pay S. each
for ten short stories, to be selected
from those submitted, by competent
judges. and all of which must con-
form to certain conditions set out in
the offer. OF all of those sent in but
seven were deemed worthy ofpublica-
ton, and of these seven two were
from Frankfort, being by Col. Thos.
B. Ford and Maj. H. T. Stanton. Col.
Ford's was story of the escape to
Cuba Of Gen. Jno. G. Breckenridge, at
the close of the war, and was pub
lished in Tuesdays paper. Maj.
Stanton's has not yet appeared. In
commenting on the failure of the
contributors to send in the full num-
Der which conformed to all the con-
ditions and were of sufficient inter-
est to secure publication, the Post
makes the remark (which many
would-be novelists have found out
for themselves) that "Story writing
is not as easy as it seems"

prize. He was born in the old house
on Treason hill, near Haverstraw,
where Major Andre and Benedict
Arnold met. The house is in the pos
session of the Housman family still.
Aaron Burr studied law there, and
during the revolutionary war It was
Gen. Wayne's headquarters. George
Washington stopped there four nights.
Three months ago Mr.. Housman was
visiting his brother-in-law at. Haver-
straw. He found himself in the attic
of the old house on Treason hill one
day during his visit, and he poked and
rummaged around the dusty crannies
and corners that had been ransacked
for their treasures a hundred times
by antiquaries fully as enthusiastic as
he. Fortune favored his persistence,
according to the New York World,
and between a couple of rafters, away
down under the caves of the roof, Mr..
Housman found rare lot. There were
ancient almanacs and an old oil lamp,
