Thirty one persons died of actual
starvation In London during last year
eight infants and twenty-three adults.
Not one OF the unfortunate persons
had ever applied % the parish authori.

the deceased person been at any time
the inmate OF poorhoUsn or hospital.
All were people of unquestionel re-

times and whose pride and horror OF
accepting public alms overcame the
sharpest pangs Of hunger. A sample

A Little Old Curl.


II fell from the folds of letter
That came in q Maytime OF old
From onc--I shall never forget her
A curl with a glamour Of gold;
And ! thought OF the bright brow that
wore it
II was only the brow Of girl,
But how gracefully once it fell DER it
This 'witching and wonderful curll
Her eyes like the heavens above her,
Beamed bright as an April and blue
All the winds Of the May seemed 10 love
her,
And tousled her curls as they blew;
And once. when with tenderest caresses
They kissed the bright wonders apart
And made a sweet song OF her tFesses.
They tossed this wild curl TO my heart
And now, after years that have perished'
Ii shines through the mist and the
gloom;
Neglected and lonely, yet cherished.
IL smiles like a liv in bloom.
And though the dear forehead that
wore u
Lies low meath the naples that moan,
-till, still in the dark I adore il,
And kiss il and love IL alone

perhaps you would not think 30, but a
verv large proportion OF diseases in New
York comes from careleSsness about catch

such a simple thing and so common that
very few people, unless it is a case Of
pneumonia, pay any attention 10 a cold.
New York is one Of the heallhieSt places
on the Atlantic Coast and yet there are a
great many cases Of Catarrh and con-
sumption which have their origin in this
neglect Of the simplest preCautou Of eve
ry day ltfc. The most sensible advice is,
when you have one get rid Of II as soon as
possible. BY all means do not neglect it,
DIR. Edison does not tell you how to cure a

GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

Wang" Entertains a Splendid
House in the Most Royal
Manner.

"Wang" was the attraction at
the Grand last night, as it will be
again tonight; and it was an at.
traction, it draws. No more charm
ing entertainment has been given
the people of this city in many a
day than was given the large au-
diencG that so enthusiastically APP
plauded Wang" last night during
the three delightful hours that the
opera lasted.
The setting and cOstuming Of the
piece ere alike superb. The move
ment was rhyUhmical and there
was no perceptible friction, the
whole working like perfect piece
of we'll oiled machinery. wang"
it funny, irresistably funny, funny
as whole cage full of monkeys,
and 1t is pure, wholesome, unadul-
terated fun; fun outside and in; in
manner, speech, dress, facial eX-
preston, situations and all else.
Edwin Stevens as wang" is
whole comedy himself, even if be
never opened his mouth, but when
he adds his clever witiCisms, and
droll remarks he is irresistible. He
is good all through and does not
deteriOrate.
Chas. Burrows as "Cap Fracasse"
was a good contrast to Stevens,
doing very acceptable work.
"Mataya," crown prince of Siam,
as personated by Virginia Earl
captivated the house. She has a
handsome, roguish face, a Iurk-
ing devil of fun in her eye,
a captivating manner and good
voice, and they were all drawn
upon for the pleasure OF the house
last night.
Ethel LyntOn as the "Widow"
and her step daughter "Marie,"
have really good voices, clear and
musical, enunciation distinct and
manner natural especially the
"widOw" whose acting was charm
ing. The sweet clear notes of
"Marie" were highly appreciated.
In thus particularizing the lead
ing characters there is no discount
made upon the others. From the
huge elephant" to the "little
coons" they were all on hand, not
excepting the keeper of the royal
beast.
The music was lively, catchy, in
spiriting, and the Choruses full and
sonorOus, the whole contributing
to general result that was as de-
lightful as it was novel.
Wang is great comic show, and
the man or woman who was born
to laugh cannot afford to miss it
tonight.

WILSON BARRETT COMING.
The Great English Actor on His
First Southern Tour.

First Southern Tour.
Our citizens have an intellectual
treat in store for them next week
in the engagement of the
distinguished author, manager
and actor Wilson Barrett and
his famous supporting company
from the Princess theatre in Lon
don.
Mr.. Barrett is making his first
southern tour, and will most
positively only be seen twice in
this city, next Wednesday after
noon and evening, at the opera
house. At the matinee he will
present "The Stranger" one Of
the greatest live stories ever
written, and one which has been
the fountain source of many of the
most successful plays of the pres
ent day, such as "Old Love Let
ters," young Mrs. Winthrop"
etc, etc.
At night "Claudian," will be the
play, with Mr.. Barrett in the til
tie role. 1t is one Of the grandest
plays on the stage today.
For ten years Mr.. Barrett was
the manager Of the famed Prin.
cess theatre in London, and dur
ing that time he introduced to the
play going public Of the great me-
tropolis Of the world, such dramat-
lists as George r. Sims, Hall
Game, Sidney Grundy, Hen
ry Arthur Jones, and
Henry Henson and such plays
as, "The Lights of London" ClitO,
"The Romany Rye" "Ben My
Chree," Nowadays" "Lord
Harry" "Justineau," "Hoodman
Blind" "The Silver King" and
"Claudian." All these plays made
great hits, and all were staged in a
manner that made even the blase
modern Babylons open its eyes in
wonder.
Mr.. Barrett comes to this city
backed by his famous Lon
don company, dramatic Or
ganiZation of great strength
and talent. 1t numbers among its
members such artists as H. Cooper
Cliffe, a blood relative of the Kim
bles and Sarah Siddons, Austin
MelfOrd, one Of England's foremost
actors; Amboise Man
ming, the talented comedian, and
FRANKLIN McLeary, the celebrated
young comedian actor. It's leading
lady is Miss Maude Jeffries, a
young Mississippi beauty, whose
facial resemblance to Mary Ander-
son is marvellous, and to have dra-
matte talent is so phenomenal as to
tlatter her friends with the hope
that she will be that great actress
es' legitimate successor.
Both, "The Stranger" and "Clau-
dian," will be staged here with
precisely the same scenery, cos
TUNES and appointments employed
in their original productions in
England. The earthquake scene
in "Claudian" is one Of the most
realistic ever seen on the stage.
