"A Ride for Life. 2"

At O'Brien's opera house an event of interest to the patrons of Manager Thiess will be the engagement for Friday and Saturday of Eugene Robinson's comedy drama, "A Ride for Life" The play Is thoroughly American and was written by MT. Walter Fessler, who Is also the inventor of the mechanical effects. Some of the features announced for it by the managers, Messrs. Robinson and Fessler, indicate the daring and energy of the men who conduct the affairs of our stage, as the amount of money invested in a production of this kind is something enor- nous. The effects in this play are a great deal in advance of whatever has yet been attempted in scenes of sim liar nature. One great effect is loco motive running at full speed, the illu- sion being increased by various devices The locomotive is one of the real kind and not a toy, or a thing of carpenter work; 1t could serve the purpose on a regular track steam is generated in it's boiler. heated from the fire box or fur mace on the engine. and the swift reyolu- ton of it's wheels proceeds from its own motive power. The preliminary cost of the production has been s230O0 and material part of 1t was for the engine The locomotive scene in "A Ride for Life" as given this season is said to be the greatest mechanical effect ever placed on the stage. The scenes laid in Mexico are beautiful and realistic. and for the moment 1t carries the beholder to that beautiful country, where rail- roading is engineering.

RICHARD III,
One of Shakespeare's Great Tragedies, Pro- duced at UBrens to Good House
 Last Night.

Notwithstanding the rain last night Q Brien's opera house was well filled with an intelligent and appreciative audience on the occasion of Thomas Keene's an- nual appearance in this city, presenting Richard H." The audience was as en- thusiastic as it was large. Mir. Keene was received with shouts and cheers and he and his associates were repeatedly called before the curtain
 MT. Keene's production of Richard llI' is scholarly in it's intent and admi- rably carried out in all the material de- tails which make up a magnificent and elaborate pictorial rendering.
 MT. keenes Richard" has for the past fifteen years or more been the standard representation of the stage. Whatever other conceptions of this character have been offered they have invariably been compared and measured by the gauge of MT. Keene. Just so far have they called forth critical resentment. No tribute could be higher.
 To say that MT. Keene is great does not over-lapse the truth, and last night he was at his best. He has lost none of his fire, nor his art; his voice has not lost it's mellowness nor It's strength; he has the same peculiar limp, which nobody in the world can initiate; he has the same mis- shapen makeup, and begins the cynical description of himself with such earnest ness as to borrow pity for him and all his wfckedness. He gave an artistic rep resentation of Richard IT." and one that those present last night will not forget for many day.
 The supporting element of the com pany Is fairly put into evidence in this play and there was not a weak point in 1t. MT. Hennig as Richmond, Mir Eagle son as King Henry, MT. Lowell as Buck ingham, MT. Ahrendt as Lord Henry, MT. Melton as Catesby and the Misses Gallatin, Timberman, Baker and Regan and dear old Mrs. Baker all showed up to the best possible advantage.
 Tonight MT. Keene will be seen as Hamlet" character in which he ex- cells. MT Keene has never been seen in Hamlet in this city.

A DELIRIoUs DEED.
Sensational Attempt of Bank Pres
ident Cassatt to Shuttle Off.

ident Cassaft to Shuttle Off.
DES MONIES. To-, June Be. X.
Cassatt, ex-state senator and pres1-
dent of the First National Bank OF
Pella, made sensational attempt to
commit suicide at the bank building.
The bank was closed today by order
of Comptroller Eckels. 1t is in bad
shape, and much indignation exists
over the matter. Cassatt has been
largely trusted. He has for some time
been speculating to a considerable eX-
tent on the Chicago board of trade,
and had suffered heavy losses OF late,
one amounting to about $14, 600 the first
of last week. For some time past he
has been drinking heavily. Saturday
evening he was engaged in a social
game Of whist with party of friends.
About 1890 Sunday morning the as
Sistant cashier found Cassatt in a
room at the rear of the bank lying on
a cot wet with the blood which had
oozed from three ugly gashes in his
throat, and from slight wound in
his right leg. He was still alive, but
unconscious and probably still under
the influence of liquor, which he had
imbibed freely. 1t seems to have been
an attack Of delirium tremens, for
there are evidences of a terrible strug-
gle with imaginary foes during which
he declared he would kill himself
rather than be killed. 1t appears he
procured poison and poured it into the
|. wounds to aid death, but whisky coun-
teracted this. His family is prominent
His friends claim depositors will be
|. paid in full

THE COMMON COUNCIL WILL
MEET AND CHOOSE 4 CITY
CLERK. S-1
DETECTION IN THE RANKS.
ONE DEMOCRATIC FACTION is
READY TO VOTE FOR ANY
REPUBLICAN,.
REPUBLICAN MEMBERS MEET
And Unite on n Man, hut Refuse
to Say Who Is Their
Choice.

The Republican members of the
common council have agreed upon
their man for city clerk, and certain
Democratic members of the board OF
aldermen declare that they will vote
for the Republican nominee. That is
the situation this morning. What il
will be at 4 o'clock this afternoon,
when the common council will meet
to elect city clerk, none but
prophet can tell.
The Republican members conferred
last night, so the G. | o is reliably
informed, in the rooms of the Lincoln
club, where they chose their candi-
date Who that candidate is they re-
fuse to divulge. but his name would
appear to be immaterial, If an alder
man elected by Democratic votes is
to be believed. This is what Aid.
John A. Wolf said to a Globe re-
porter last night.
aid. Kartak, Ehrmanntraut and
myself will vote for the Republican
candidate on the first ballot"
ION the first ballot?" queried the
reporter. WAS it not understood
that you would give some Democrat
show by voting for a Democrat on
that ballot?"
mo, sir, 1t was not" responded Aid.
Wolf. 1--WE have waited for the
other side long enough. We don't want
any horse play. They suggested a
caucus, and we agreed to hold off until
s o'clock this (Monday) morning. They
didn't show up and we extended the
time to o'clock this afternoon, and
then they didn't come to time. That
settled 1t. We are not open to any
more propositions"
do you mean to say that If the other
! Democrats came to you today. before
the meeting of the common council,
and offered to go into caucus and agree
upon any other Democrat than Prem
dergast that you gentlemen would re-
fuse to listen to them?'
YES, SIR, THAT'S WHAT. r
We have done, as said before play
ing horse They have trifled with us
! long enough"
Proceeding in this strain. Aid. Wolf
Informed the reporter that surprises
were in store for the public. Not only
would the name of the next city clerk
astonish all ears, but an equally uneX-
pected gentleman would hereafter pre-
side over the board of aldermen.
HE will be Democrat straight
through" said the alderman, "but not
the choice of the caucus, Frank
Brady"
Aid. Wolf voted for Ehrmanntraut in
the caucus, and admitted last night
that Ehrmanntraut could have his
vote.
Questioned again concerning his in
tention to vote for a Republican on
the first ballot, Aid. Wolf reiterated
his determination to do so. Asked why
he would not vote for a Democrat, he
answered that the Republicans, In case
they failed to elect their man on the
first ballot, would vote for Prender-
CAST on the second.
The assembly will meet at 3:15, re-
orGanize-by electing John Copeland
president-and then transact some
routine business. The board of alder
men will convene Immediately after
wards and organize, and then both
bodies will meet jointly.

Sailed for Tenderfeat.

Special to the Globe.
CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., June g.
A large number of prospectors recently
fiocked to the vicinity of Dumont,
Lawrence county, where great excite
ment was occasioned by the finding
Of some float which assayed $50 to
the ton. Mining claims have since
that time been staked off in all di-
rections, and prospectors at once went
to work to find the ore body which
would make the camp another Cripple
Creek 1t has now developed that the
valuable little pieces of float that were
streWn so thickly around were taken
off a carload of ore passing through
Dumont on it's way to Kansas City
from a mine on Yellow Creek, and
planted in the hope probably that some
of the property owners in the vicinity
would be enabled to dispose of some Of
their property to tenderfeet.

STILL HOLDS THE DOODLE.
Aid. Sampson Has the Best of
Sioux Fails City Dads.

Special to the Globe.
SIOUX FALLS. s. D., June 3.-At
the meeting of the city council this
evening a resolution was passed in
structing the chief of police to serve
a summons on Joe Sampson, eX-act1ng
mayor, requiring him to appear before
the council on June and show cause
why he should not be expelled from
the city council because he holds
$766.50 of the corruption fund, and
failed to pay the same over to John L.
Cogan, who succeeded him as acting
mayor Mr.. Sampson sat in his chair
and took an active part in the entire
meeting. He was indicted for embez-
element and brought back from Sun
Dance, Wyo., where he was visiting.
The indictment was quashed, but he
was held to the next grand jury. The
meeting is sure to be interesting, as
Sampson will produce an order signed
by seven aldermen giving him the
power to pay the money out for
illegal bills, and also an order from
Richard Lamb ordering him to keep
the money until the city settled with
him. Sampson will be represented by
Judge Garland, and the case is very
liable to go to the supreme court be-
fore it is settled, as the council will
undoubtedly eXpel him.

BUT FEW RETURN.
Attempt to Open Up Rhode Island
Mills but Partially Successful.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., June 3.-The
mills at Olneyville opened this morn
ing at the regular hour for the ad-
mission of any operatives who wished
to return, but the number who went
in was but small percentage of the
force regularly employed there. The
manufacturers intend to leave places
for the strikers for short time, and
if their former employees do not return
they will engage any operatives they
can get. At the Riverside mills 700
out of LOO hands went back to their
old positions this morning. OF these
40 were weavers. This is a sufficient
number to insure the running Of the
plant. Some 900 of the 200 hands re-
turned to work at the Atlantic mills.
At the Saxon mills, where it was gen.
orally expected a large number would
return to work, but a small number
returned and the machinery was not
started.

a paper printed just in time to save it's
legality. 1t seems that in the absence
of Henry Brann, the proprietor, Austin
Jefferies, an employe having charge Of
the plant, concluded he had too much
other business, and thinking he had
made a good bargain, sold the sub
scription list to the Tribune and an
nounced that the paper would not be
issued again. When Mr.. Brann was
apprised of the procedure he tele-
graphed parties here to get the paper
out. AS the Tribune has then Critic
account books and subscription list,
and shows disposition to keep them,
the matter will probably be settled in
the courts.

Secretary Gresham had not drawn his
$50 month from the Chicago pension
office. He has never surrendered it,
but for some reason he had not made
any call for it. There is an accumula-
ton of over $1,100 to his credit. The
pension was granted him for wounds
received at the battle of Atlanta. I'm
der the laws of the department the
accumulation is subject to the order
of his wife, and the pension of $50
month will go to her.

CHILL RETURNS TO GOLD.
Practical Lesson Taught Currency
Theorists.


Theorists.
WASHINGTON, June 3.-Senor Don
Cana, the Chilian minister, has re-
ceived the following cablegram: SAM
tiago, June 3.-Chilian Minister, Wash
ington: 1t is very gratifying to me
to inform you that after seventeen
years of the regime of paper money,
Chilli has returned with satisfaction
and confidence to the gold standard
The law is in force. FERNANDEZ,
Minister of Finance.
The resumption of specie payments
by Chill, which occurred on last Sat
urday, promises to furnish some in
teresting lessons on coinage legisla-
ton. Reports from there state that
the government tried to familiarize
the people with the new forms of sill
yer and gold coin by getting out pres
liminary issue. These were quickly
exchanged for the old paper money,
but as soon as the novelty had worn off
the people were glad to go back to
the more convenient form of paper
currency. Another embarrassment oc-
Cured when the government found
that coin was being exported in great
quantities. The new specie payment
law fixed the ratio between the metals
at Al to l. This ignored the current
ratio of the remainder of the world,
that in the London market at the pres
ent time being about 81 to l. AS a
result of this difference, gold began to
flow out of Chilli at an alarming rate.
The silver coins We're also exported,
because the law provided that they
should contain 444 grains of pure sil-
yer, which made them worth intrinsic
ally more than the current silver dol
lar. Thus both gold and silver were
being drained out of Chilli, go that the
government ordered the mints to stop
further coinage. Under the law the
mints began last Saturday, and there
is much interest to learn what the re-
suit will be of this latest STEP
