A SUCCESSFUL COMEDY.

With regard to "a Thoroughbred" to
he given tomorrow evening at the Howe
Opera House the New York Herald SAYS;
This successful London comedy was
presented to a large audience at the
Bijou last night, and scored an emphatic
success. 1t is difficult to decide whether
the piece is a comedy oradrama. Many
Of the situations are intensely dramatic
and many extremely humorous. We
have seldom seen an audience "roar" the
way it did at the side-splitting love scene
of Willie Green's in the last act. That
"quiet little game of poker" will also be
remembered. The company was ade-
quate to the requirements of the different
roles. Mr.. Wilson as Willie Green and
Kate Johnson as Mrs. Strongmind made
hits. Miss St. Clare as Kate wore some
beautiful gowns.
Other press notices are equally favora-
BILE.

were riding in the second car from the
engine and never realized the extent of
the accident until they stepped out of the
car. Then they saw that their engine
had telescoped the rear Of the other train
and pinned in brakeman in the debris
The brakeman was finally taken from
the wreck, but lived only an hour after
wards. number of passengers were
hurt, including Congressman Morse of
Massachusetts. Both Mr.. Dunnett and
Mr.. Meigs do not care to repeat their
experience and it is quite remarkable
that they escaped any injuries.

HOME TALENT ABROAD.

The Waterloo Advertiser of Oct. 25,
contains the following complimentary
notice regarding the work of Mrs. George
Frost as an elocutonist, that lady hav-
ing recently appeared before an audience
at Waterloo:
Mrs. Anna Spencer Frost, of st. Johns
bury, w., made an excellent impression
as an elocutionist, and had to respond to
several recalls. Her selections were all in
good taste and embraced pretty wide
range, and in the rendition of both the
humorous and pathetic passages she was
pleasing and effective. She has rich and
well modulated voice a fetching stage
presence and her gestures are free and
unaffected. Her best pieces were perhaps
"a naughty little girl, and "a Southern
race of long ago" both of which cap
tivated her audience.

The coming winter, prominent horse
men in Barre and Montpelier will make
an effort to organize a Vermont racing
circuit. 1t is claimed by eprime movers
that such circuit would be of financial
profit to the owners of both the trottng
parks and horses. The great advantage
to be gained would be the abolishment OF
so many conflicting dates. The towns
which it is proposed to include in the cir
cuit are Barre, Brattleboro, White River
Junction, Tunbrdge, Northfeld, st.
Iohnsbury, Morrisvile, Enosburg Falls,
Rurlinoton, Rutland and Waterbury.
