The Grand-noris.

A large house greeted the perform

her company at the Grand last night.
Inc play was written by Robert
Drouet, the leading man of the COM

Doris Vane, a school teacher, marries
stephen Brand, who afterwards be-
comes a convict. Believing him to
have been killed, later on, she mar
r1es Kenneth Ashleigh, who proposes
to her in defiance of ISLANDERS that
have been cast on her character by

poison him. The wife is forced into
going to see her former husband, who
has been taken i'll. The fact that she
is making secret visits to some I'M

band, and his demand for an explana-
ton brings on a. crisis, which is height

Miss EllsIer is the same sweet, win

role in Doris and handles it in an
accomplished manner, though it is not
as good a character by any means as

Rank Treason.

The American Wool and Cotton r.
porter says:
"A WOODEN mill in Cleveland, o., is
now employing 300 persons day and
night, and the proprietors attribute
the Increase OF orders to the free adj
mission of wool, which, they say. was
the hardest blow France and England
ever received commercially from this
country. Two English experts who
examined the product and prices of
this mill say the cloth could be sold
at a profit in Bradford, England"
Whereupon the Courier-JournaI COM
ments with savage glee:
This is treason, rank treason, in
the very wool-growing camp. Gov.
Mckinley ought to look after these
things at once. The Ohio wool grow
ers ought to have thrown their sheen
to the dogs, and Ohio wooden manu-
facturers, if they persist in making
money, should not be permitted to
brag about it. The reference to free
wool being a blow to France and Eng
land especially deserves condemna-

There is a rank suggestion of pot

declaration that 81 am interested

will give this Office power to pro-
tect the states interests, and, by
the eternal, the states interests shall
be protected, no matter on whose
toes l tread, whether they enact a.
new law or retain the old one"
Stripped Of it's swagger, this declar-
alton means that Mr.. Dunn, like
every other public official, wants all
he can get for the support of his
department, and is thoroughly con-
WINGED that he knows more about
the business of the state than the

bined. According to Mr.. Dunn's
rash statements during the cam
palgn the state timber had all been
stolen, and his present figures show
800, 0OO, 900 feet to the credit of the
state in addition to what the rest
OF the world knew about. If Mr..
Dunn faithfully protects the inter-
ests OF the state the people will

WHAT TO READ.

1t matters little to what age man
may attain, the business cares absorb
the greater portion Of his time, and
but little is left for reading, and hence
the importance of reading such books
as will insure the greatest amount OF
information with the least possible ex-
penditure of time. The young are al
ways interested in books of travel, eX-
citing frontier experience, such as
hunting, fishing, narrow escapes from
Indians, etc., but how little these add
to the general information of the read
er, A friend once asked me what books
he should read, and I said the Bible,
Shakespeare, History of the United
States, Kings and Queens of England,
our own poets and those of Great
Britain, Prescott's Mexico and Peru,
the magazines and daily papers. After
these a re read and studied, such other
books as may suggest themselves may
be- taken up. A few days since I met
boy on the cable car who had a book
which he politely permitted me to ex-
anime. 1t proved to be novel from
the public library, which, when he has
read, will leave nothing with him
worth remembering; on the contrary.
will have been blunted. Young men,
store your minds with history, with
something real, before entering the
field of fiction. The Anticipated will
say that this subject is a Chestnut"
for the fool and the feeble-minded al
way imagine everything chestnut
which is beyond their circumscribed
visions or their much more circum-
seribed intellects. My advice to the
young is not to waste their leisure mo-
ments, but occupy them in profitable
reading, and in the end they will find
themselves well repaid. But some will
say, Il have no taste for reading"
Try it, and you will find that you can
cultivate it and receive more solid
pleasure in that than in any other
way. There is gentleman in this
city whom have known since he was

hung miscreants are not in the Hen

sorted to no unfair means, has cor
rupted no member of the legislature

AT THE THEATERS.

AT last we have a genuine burleSuue-
the hrst for many a season. 1t is
lf9z, and 1t was presented at the
metropolitan opera house last evening.
1t is strictly what it purports to be, "a
brilliant historical extravaganza" It
is replete with pretty music and grace
full women, full of original features.
and, what is of all things the most
vital, 1t is presented by an aggresa-
ton of people not one of whom is in
competent, and some of whom are ex-
ceptionally clever. Unlike similar pro-
auctions of late years, some skill has
been bestowed upon the book of the
buriesque. The lines show evidence of
care in their composition, as they are
smooth, appropriate and witty. The
m1ngling of fourteenth and nineteenth
century fads and customs is produc-
tive of much amusement. Perhaps
nothing in the line of burlesaue is more
striking than the transition from the
court of Ferdinand and Isabella to the
center of Madison square, New York
city, 400 years later.
The company is all in all the ablest
that has ever appeared here in eX-
travaganZa this season. 1t is remark
ably even, containing no sticks and no
performers who are not adapted to
work of this nature. Marke Smiths
Queen Isabella is perhaps the most
interesting impersonation in the per-
Torrance. Mr.. Smith is a picture of a
queen, massive and majestic, yet fem
mime. Indeed Mr.. Smiths make up is
so artistic, and his bearing so queenly,
that one would believe he saw :. d
woman, were it not for the actors ocl
casionally using his natural voice to
carry out the ludicrous ideas of the
burlesque. {
Nothing but compliments can be be-
slowed upon the other members of the
cast. w. H. Sloan was exceedingly
comical in the role of King Ferdi!
nand, and his tramp speciality is the
funniest witnessed here in long time.
Mr.. Sloan is an extremely clever and
promising young performer.
William Mcmahon was very amusing
in the role of the policeman, and quite
successful in his imitation of dialects!
Ross Snow, as the royal treasurer;
and Charles A. Pussey and Edd Read
way, who impersonated the long and
the short of it, as conspirators, con
tributed much to the merriment of, the
audience. ~.
The feminine contingent was
equally capable. Gertrude ,Rutledge
and Valande Wallace sang remark
ably well. So, indeed, did Carrie
Behr. The dancing was excellent.
FIeurette, the fantastic toe-dancer, is
beyond criticism. She exhibits a COM
bination of ballet and toe-dancing cap
uvating to behold. She is a marvel of
grace and suppleness. The ballets are
all new and pretty, and the music full
of life and spirit.
Another feature of comment in
1872 is the unobtrusive and easy
manner in which all the specialties
are introduced. They are before your
eyes without being ostentatiously
heralded. without interrupting the
story of the burlesque. All in all
1882 is the most pleasing entertain
ment of its character that has visited
st. Paul this season.

eighteen years old. He attended to
business during the day and read the
greater part of the night, and the re-
suit is that he is not only one of the
best read men in the state, but one of
the ablest political and literary writ

would read only an hour day how
much would be added to the aggregate
of intelligence of the people. But, alas,
the great majority never look into a
book from one years end to another.

Cleveland has set the pace for a re-

by which the senate will confine

other severe blow will be struck at
the vicious spoils system. If Mr.
