"The Two Coloncle," Tuesday, October 1.
The production OF 1.-The Two Colonels"
at the Academy of Music last night was
the irss presentation OF a new play BY
new author. The SUCCESS which it
scored 1t d. served. There Is a something
in 1t which cannot do other wise than
appeal to the favor of all. While its
sentiment may have been used by other
playwrights before Mr.. Goodall it is
peculiarly his own conception, and is
worked out on lines far different from
those laid down by Mr. Gillette and
others who have invaded the Same field.
The play opens with Vermont scene,
and introduces the Northern Colonel in
his own peculiar environment.
The scene changes from Vermont to
Virginia and right here is where the
finest work of Mr.. Goodall Is apparent
It's strength Is in its simplicity. 1t
shows an intimate knowledge of those
ter der feelings which were truly part
Of the South before her peculiar institu.
tions had become things OF the past
Tho positions occupied and the close in.
Colonel and the old negro servitor, who
had more pride in his owners family
than even the master himself, Is drawn
with a most clever hand. The melo.-
drama, for it Is in many essentials such
rather than comedy, should be sue
cess because it possesses superior merit,
and the com pany playing it. when more
familisr with It's technique, will cor
rectly interpret its beauties. The TO-
male parts were we'll taken. but the
strength OF the play Is not in femininity
but in it's masculine power. 1t should,
after IL is altered in some minor WAYS,
become one of the strongest comedies on
the American stage.

Indiana Shares in the Boon.

Indianapolis, Ind, April 2.-The first
rain of the season came yesterday and
was general but light over the state.
The drouth had resulted in much dam
age to wheat and in preparing the
ground for early crops, so that the fall
of moisture yesterday was much need
ed relief. However, there was hardly
more than enough to start the grass
and shrubbery and the weather bureau
official reports that a many times heav-
Ter rain is necessary before any real
benefit can be claimed. In the north
part of the state about a hat inch fell.
At this point the rainfall was only 20
of an inch and it dwindled TO OF of an
inch along the Ohio. The indications
are for occasional light showers.

RAIN FALLS AT LAST.
Dust Laid Low In Illinois and Many
Nearby States.

Chicago, April 2.-Illinois was in the
rain storm yesterday and got drenched
all over. The sister states Missouri and
Iowa, were in it also. Other of the CEN
trail and northern states got partly wet
by the rain, which was so long and anx-
iously awaited. When the big drops be-
gan to fall about / o'clock Sunday
morning the storm was central over
these states. 1t was falling on the west
ern border of Indiana, but began NOV
ing eastward, and at noon yesterday
the weather man said the whole state
was being rained on. 1t was spreading
northward also, and the opinion was
that Wisconsin would be included in
the area. The rain gave indication of
lasting until noon to-day. The other
places got some of the welcome rain
were Southern Minnesota, eastern Ne
braska, eastern Kansas, eastern Indian
Territory, northern Arkansas, and
western Tennessee and Kentucky. South
Dakota got a slight sprinkle covering
the western portion.

BCNDSMEN TO SETTLE.
1t Is Said Chicagoans Will Take $130'-
600 for tbe S26s.OoO Setter Notes.


Carlyle, Ill, April 1.-THE local credl-
tors of the defunct Ramsay bank met
for the fourth time in this city Satur-
day afternoon. This was the final
meeting, and every arrangement has
been made to contest the $363,O0O claim
filed by the bondsmen of the late state
treasurer 1t is the general opinion
here that several of the noted men OF
the state were large borrowers from
Ramsay, and may be cognizant OF facts
pertaining to the deficiency in the treas
ury which they do not care to disclose.
Ex-Banker Setter of Lebanon, Ill, bor-
rowed state funds from Ramsay to the
amount of s263,O0O and gave his notes
for that amount. These notes are held
by the Chicago bondsmen, who will
take $125,000 for these notes-$55, 600 to
be paid in cash, the balance to be Sc
cured by a preferred lien on the Setter
assets. The settlement of these notes
by Setter will leave the local creditors
of the Ramsay bank in a much better
condition. The 1863, 900 claim will be re-
duced to 100000 and the depositOrs
will receive about 40 cents on the dollar.
