An Audience of lrrleatR.

An Audience of Priests.
New York Times.
A very singular audience came to-
gether at the Standard theater Thurs
day afternoon to witness the perform
ance OF Augustus Thomas play, The
Capitol" 1t was composed entirely of
on invitation of Manager J NJ. Hill,
who gave the performance for the
priests. The clerical gentlemen walked
slowly into the theater and were shoevn
to their seats by the attentive ushers.
There were probably fifty Of them in
the house when the curtain rose and
four times as many
Where the I'M all came from is a
mystery, for the matinee was a private
affair for the benefit of the clergy.
Manager Hill submitted that they
might be sisters disguised in a world
ly costume, to enable them to see the
play, but he did 10 act as though he
had n strong faith in this theory. AS
the tickets were only sent to ciergylneT
on application, it is evident thai many
priests gave their seats to women OF
their acquaintance instead Of going to
the heater themselves.

New York, Oct. 12.-No additional

could be obtained in New York today
At the office of Chanler, Maxwell y
Philip, 100 Broadway, the members OF
the firm said the whole story had heen

there two months ago to engage in Soma
new enterprise, and has not been seen N
New York since. II he is here he is
keeping out of the way.
Mrs. CHAMBERS whereabouts is also
somewhat OF a mystery. although tae
general impression prevails that she is
at her old home in Albemarle county,
Virginia. The news of the divorce ere
ated a great deal of talk but no one
seems to have had any knowledge that
it vas impending, save those immcdi

Judge Roger A. Pryor. who was q

Colonel Alfred Rives, appeared To take
the matter to heart. a divorce SUIT
