ADJUSTMENTS.

The Liliputians, who are to appear at
the Metropolitan Theater on the 18th and
10Th insts., with both matinee and
evening performance on the 10Th, first
appeared in California at the same house
few years ago. Their success was in
slant and great, and it was followed by a
phenomenal engagement in San Fran
cisco. There were but a dozen of the
dWarfs then, and only fourteen persons
IN the company. They come now with
the nursery "Humpty Dumpty" as a
spectacular piece and eighty-fiv people
In the company. including a giant. The
play IS an excellent extravaganza, and
gives the little people abundant opportu-
nifty for fun-making. Its scenic effects
are dazzling. Few plays have had, we
are assured, such handsome stage set
tings, and the costumes. which are FREE
quently changed, are particularly rich.
The lIllputians are supported by COM
pany of tall men and women, and in the
third act they meet the giant Kaleb,
who is said to be the tallest man in the
world. The chief feature of interest is
Franz Ebert, the comedian of the Lii
putians, who is as funny as ever. Not
less finished as an actor and delightful
in his work, however, is Adolf link;
the diminutive Ludwig Merkel, who
talks English, and thereby ADDS to the
effect produced by his clever acting.
There are also the dwaris Bertha Jaeger,
Ida Mahr. Toni Miester, Elsie Lau, Sc
lima Gaenor and Herman Ring. The
play tells fairy story with the aid of
dwarfs, giants, ingenious mechanical
contrivances, All educated pig and trained
ponies, and both for the children and
their elders there are fine spectacular
scenes, with new ballet effects. The
richest OF these is THE Grotto of Dia-
monds," fine effect, made possible by
the use Of electric lights, and ending In
''the ribbon serpentine," new effect of
beauty. The audience is continuously
entertained either by the spectacular
effects or the clever fun of the Lii
putians.

CHAMPION HARVEY proved in Thurs- days debate in Chicago that congress in 1873 was hotbed of corruption. Advocate Horr. playing to the gallery, thereupon tried to attribute to Harvey the statement that all men are scoun- drels.
 Harvey confined himself to facts, while Horr indulged in the "cutting invective" for which he Is noted. His misrepresentation of his opponents attitude, however, was much more inaccessible than his inyec,iye. But Champion Harvey had the satisfaction of proving his point, and made it reasonable to suppose that the demon citation act was surreptitiously and dishonesty passed. There is some thing to be gained by proving this be- yond a doubt, but we should prefer the debate to take different turn. Let MT. Harvey show that the gold standard has had ruinous effect upon the agricultural, industrial and com mercial activities of the nation and that the peoples salvation lies in bimetallism,
