Hospital. The alleged victim was one
Lewis or Pisa. an insane patient, who, it is
said, resisted the taking bath on October
25th. and was set upon by his keepers and

charged keeper, who told the story ON

committed to the hospital as Lord De La
Ware. aged 149 years, feigning insanity.
He with two or three patients makes some
unpleasant charges. but the statement of
the superintendent, DR.. Hancker, rather
clears these matters up, and it is to be
hoped it may be done to the satisfaction of
all. The coroner and attorney-general
will make full investigation, and Mr..
Thomas B. Smith and DR.. Paris T. Carlisle,
Jr.. two Of the trustees. acted promptly and
wisely in preferring charges as soon as the

The Hick,ry Farm i.

"Well, I'll be gol -darned eff 1t warn't' 9
good play, was "The Hick'ry Farm" as
Zek'l Fortune so often, so forcibly, so tell
ingly, said on the stage Thanksgiving night
A fine audience greeted the performers and
inspired them to do their best work. The
cast of characters was made with unusual
good judgment, each part being well taken.
Gilpin Massey and John Parvis made ex-
cellent old men of we ancient times and
their makeup was so complete that their
most intimate friends knew them OH the
stage only as Zek'l Fortune and 'Riah
Skinner.
Harry Budd, as the handsome unscrup d.
lous stranger, whose designs were more
upon ZekiePs fortune than upon his pretty
daughter. took well the williams role, never
a desirable part to act and never in the
favor of the audience, and therefore de-
serving the more credit when properly in
terpreted. Reece Parker, the country
lover, noble and true, if not plausible and
handsome, took the character well and in
the end proved that NJ nerit will win.
Frank Pool looked the manly detective
whose powers to penetrate the ways that
are dark and crooked, are check to evil
6oers. He filled the bill completely. But
Lawrence McKeegan, an Irish Alderman,
was the favorite in the play. partially
because it was the fun provoking part but
more because the character was well acted
by William Brady. The makeup was
true to the typical Irishman and the brogue
was perfect. This is Mr.. Brady's first ap-
pearance before Middletown audience
and he made hit. His song, Rattle for
stove." was applauded to the echo. and
If ifpossible, the "Still his whiskers grew"
was enjoyed the more.
Mrs. w. E. Barnard as Jessie Fortune,
the pretty and unsophisticated daughter
of Farmer Zek'l, interpreted the character
SO as to win. the commendation of the au-
dience. Her acting was good and the pa
thetic song at parting with her father
touched more hearts than 'old dads" And
Miss Mabelle Taylor as Mrs Priscilla Dodge.
very susceptible widow, filled the last
though by no means the least interesting
character in this very well-rendered play.
She shared with alderman McKeegan"
not only his ups and downs in life but his
favor as the funny character. She was
more to him than Juliet to Romeo and
"sure it's a darlint little wolfe she was"
