 THE republican leaders of the house were very eleyerly taught little lesson by the democrats this week, which would con- vince men with less conceit that Reed, Burrows X Go, have not secured a corner in parliamentary knowledge. It was the intention of. the aforesaid republican leaders to get at least two days debate out of the questions of the power of the house to have members arrested, and of the right of members to vote while under arrest, when the motion for the discharge of the arrested members came up. This waste of time that properly belonged to the con- sideration of the tariff bill was not counte- nanced by the democrats, who easily de- feated it by having the sergeant-at-arms make his report at a time when the repub- lican leaders were of their guard. It did not take a moment for Representative Catchings to ask unanimous consent for the discharge from custody of the arrested members. and for Speaker Crisp to declare them discharged, there being no objection. By that time the know-it-all republicans had discovered what was going on, but it was too late.

Not Going to Hurt Him.

In the official ceremony the Chinese dip lomats are strict observers of the very let ter of etiquette. In private life they are simple and unaffected, with the joyous dis position of lot of schoolboys., A young lady was walking in the Geological park a few days ago when the Chinese minister passed her going out. He was followed by a lot of boys. The young lady was worried lest the boys were about to do something rude to the minister, and she called one of them to her.
 Do you know who that iss'' she asked.
 "Yep-Chinaman." was the laconic reply.
 "He is the Chinese minister" said she impressively, "and you must be very care full not to be rude to him."
 'Oh. we ain't going to hurt him." an swered Young America. "He is all right. He has been playing football with us down in the park. k."-Washington Post.

Talk as we please, theorize as we will, there is no gainsaying the fact that the American dramatist is not given fair op- portunity by native managers Take play to the average member of this charmed and very small circle of responsible men, and he is apt to tell you that your work is ex- cellent, perfect in construction, interesting in the extreme and we'll written generally, but-and the but always appears promi- nently-'the story is conventional, and the situations are hackneyed."
 You perhaps are ambitious, You have an excellent idea for play stored in the recesses of your brain and demanding to be heard. You recognize that there is much force in the managerial criticism of your previous effort, and you go to work with 8 will. Your play finished, you present it with a consciousness that you have avoided the pitfalls previously pointed out, and you are met with about this statement:
 Good play-very good play. But"-and there comes that "but" again-''you do not follow the conventions of the stage suffi- ciently. They must be regarded, you know. The people like them. Personally I don't like them-have the greatest contempt for them, in fact-but serve the people, and must give them what they want"
 And in most cases that is just what he doesn't do. He buys something in England because it was comparatively successful

Brabazon, a wealthy man who had had an early flame named Ethel Gray, deserted her because he was compelled to, and later married and settled down to a respectable life. His wife died, leaving no children. Brabazon, sorely grieved that he was not father, adopted Ned Annesley, the son of his long time friend, who had passed away. This boy, on coming into manhood, sowed his wild oats, as most young men do, until he met Rosamund, a singer, with whom he fell desperately in love. She reciprocal ed, and all would have gone well had not Brabazon learned that the girl was born out of wedlock. He of course forbade the marriage. His adopted son insists, and just when the tangle appears most unrav elable it is learned that Brabazon is Rosa mund's father. Explanations; pretty speeches ad libitum; graceful groupings; "all lights on;" picture; very soft, sugary music; slow curtain!
 If MT. Grundy's play possessed no other merit, it would commend itself to all per sons who are sufficiently fair minded to be willing to listen to bitter arraignment of the ''lords of creation" who go about de spelling homes and then have the assurance to condemn as unfit for the association of decent people the fruits of their miscon- duct, be those innocent victims never so ir- reprOachable
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1894-01-12

It has often been remarked that no man
 can tell in advance of its production wheth- | CT play will be a success or a failure. So
 many cases are cited in which drama has proved either a disappointment or a sur l prise that most persons are inclined to re- | gard first night as an out and out experi-
 ment. Of course it is not, at least to the
 the extent that is generally supposed. A
 magazine editor can usually tell whether a | contribution will be acceptable or distaste- | full to his readers. A variety actor recog
 nizes the merit or lack of snap of comic
 song the moment he hears it. Your true | connoisseur can tell almost at glance that
 @ certain painting will make its creator fa- I nous. Why, then, should not a man who I has made the drama his life study be some thing of judge of the probable success of | play? He is fallible of course, but his
 opinion is certainly worth more than that
 of the man who is unable to see the play
 enacted, with all of it's delicate touches and
 strong points brought out, while reading | typewriter manuscript.
 That there is such a thing as judging in
 advance and with great deal of accuracy
 would seem to have been proved by William Petit, the English dramatist who died
 short time ago. Leonard Boyne, who is
 said to be the highest salaried leading man l l innate friend of Petit, told me the other
 day that of the many plays the latter had
 written not one of them was even 8 com 1 parative failure. All were great successes. l After all the booming of an unpleasant na- | ture-better known to theatrical people as | ''roasting''-which Charles Coghlan re-
 ceived from the newspapers during several
 weeks succeeding his marriage to Sculp- l tress-actress Kuehne Beveridge, the predic-
 tion was freely made that he had killed
 himself professionally, and that he would
 never dare to play again in this city, where
 all the parties interested are so well known.
 Talk of hissing him off the stage was free ly indulged in when the announcement was
 made a short time ago that Charles Cogh-
 Ian would take Maurice Barrymore's part l in IA Woman of No Importance" But
 Coghlan has been playing Lord Illingworth for more than week, and the first hiss has
 yet to be heard. New Workers talk good
 deal, but when it comes to the pinch-well,
 they are wont to sing rather low.

Later on she was given 8 better oppor- tunity to demonstrate her ability when she appeared as Lady Henry Fairfax in the same play. Miss Eaton's experience is rather immature. perhaps, for the trying position of star, but one must make a be- ginning, and she has pluck and good many other points in her favor, so it would not be surprising if she should succeed. un- less, indeed, the present unparalleled depres- sion in theatrical circles should continue through another season.

Of the cast it may be said that in no play

Of the cast it may be said that in no play in which it has yet appeared has the Elm pire theater stock company been seen to such advantage Henry Miller was no lon ger the triumphant and sometimes, it must be admitted, careless and perfunctory lover. He played the part of Brabazon, the old adopted father, with excellent discrimina- tion and few flaws. Miss Viola Allen was particularly strong as Rosamund, the part fitting her like glove. The real hit of the piece, however, was unqueStionably made by that clever young actor. Cyril Scott, who was very horsy individual in ''sas- siety." It is the best piece of acting ever done on the stage of the Empire theater.
 May Robson and w. H. Thompson, who are, in my opinion, the leaders in their par ticular lines of character work, were, strange to say, the disappointments of Sowing the Wind" Thompson horribly overdid the villain which he played, while Miss Robson hardly appeared to realize just where she was att as Lady Fretwell. w. H. Crompton was fairly good, but not near ly at his best, as we'll meaning and med dlesome friend, who has the unhappy facul- ty of getting on the wrong side of every thing.
 Sowing the Wind" will have long run at the Empire unless all signs fail. It pos sesses the virility which Liberty Hall" and "The Councillors Wife" lacked and the literary quality which was absent from 'The Younger Son."

A YOUNG woman in New York showed her contempt for the slow and expensive processes of the law by going and buying a horsewhip and using it upon young man who had broken his promise to marry her. She wrecked her vengeance on Broadway, and she says it gave her more satisfaction than a verdict of s2O, 900 for breach Of promise would have done. particularly in view of the fact that the young man was without means.
