THOMPSON IS SILENT
lie Was Shot and That Is ALI That Is
Known About the Case.
A GAMBLER OF REPUTATION
The St. Paul Police incline to the
Belief That He Attempted to
Hold Up a Man and Didn't
His Wife Shocked.

Charles Thompson. the gambler, for
merly of Butte, who was probably IA
tally shot at St. Paul a few days ago,
refuses to make any statement regard
ing the shooting but. according to the
81. Paul papers, aihe police of that city
are inclined to the belief that Thomp-
son attempted to hold up some one.
and was shot by his intended victim.
One odd feature of Thompson's
case" says the Pioneer Press. is the
strange manner in which he acted
when me got home Friday night His
wife has given dt out that he told her
he had been stabbed. He carefully
locked the door when he heard Mrs.
Smith. the landlady. coming up stairs.
and whispered that he wanted nothing
said about his condition. His wife hur-
rIed away for Will Hoskins. an init
mate friend of Thompson, and when
the latter entered the room where
Thompson lay the injured man asked
that his wife be sent into the rear
room and the door closed. Mrs. Thomp-
son listened at the keyhole and heard
her husband say. II have been shot.
The two men then held a brief conver-
sation On subdued tones. Mrs. Thomp-
son could hear no more. What Thomp-
son told Hoskins may come out after
the formers death. IT could not be
learned by the police yesterday.
"Thompsons career before he arrived

Is the deaughter of very well-to-do and
respectable italian parents. She met
Thompson and became enamored of
him. After they were married. much

becorne famous and admired among
theaaer-goe throughout the whole
country. Miss Ellsler's genius and
earnest work will soon place her In the
lead OF Shakespearean actresses. she
already occupies a most enviable posi-
ton among them. Her performance
last night was almost faultless, and
her friends-which includes everybody
have reason to feel the utmost confi-
dence In her future. Miss Ellsler had
good support in Holdrook Blinn, whose
performance of Romeo was very cred
liable. John A. Ellsler. the venerable
father OF Miss Ellsler, is a thorough
actor, and his Friar Lawrence was
never better played. Mr.. Weston took
the part of Mercutio and performed IT
well, and other characters were also
well sustained. Romeo and Juliet"
will be repeated tonight and on FRI
day night Miss Ellsler will appear In
Dumas emotional play. Camille"

The "Coplas DE ManrIque."

That a new poet was coming II not
already come. was the belief of the
readers of Longfellow's verse in the
Literary Gazette. who were better
judges of the poetic outlook than we
can be now. We cannot compare IL. as
they did. with the illusions of his for
gotten contemporaries: If we could, we
would be convinced of his superiority
to the best of them-to all of them, in
deed. except Bryant. The literary con-
dition of the country, which, IL COM
monplace, was expectant, was favor
able to the promise which was in him,
and more than favorable to the prom
Use which. eight years later. had rip

ton of the "Coplas de Manrique." We

of TRANSACTIONS from all kinds of poets;
not such colorless paraphrases as
Pope's Homer. Dryden's Virgil, Fair
fax's Tasso. Mickle's Lusiad. Cary's

the strict sense of the term. from the
French. the Spanish. the Italian, the
German. the Norwegian. the Arabic
the Persian, the Sanskrit-in fact from

In which poetry has been written and

years ago, most literatures other than

of the "coplas de Manrique" was the
revelation to his countrymen of a no.

The Closing Concert.

The last of the series of four concerts at tn"
Elitun Opera House projected hy Mr.. V. NJ
Torbert, Of the Cecil WHIG. was given on
Wednesday evening before the largest
audience of the season. The program was truly
ENJOYABLE. No one with the slightest musical
education or whose ear is in the least de-
gree attuued to the melody oi sweet sounds,
could have failed in tlLding pleasure in some
portion OF the program. Miss Lillian
Chandler never drew from her magic instru-
ment more entrancing strains. Even were
you deaf, the eye was no less gratiiied by the
ease and grace of her performance. Miss
Orndorff, whose dramatic readings at n
former Concert were 80 acceptable. made
additional reputation on Wednesday evening
as vocalist. Her strong and clear contralto
voice was heard with excellent effect in the
song For all Eternity" accompanied by Miss
Chandler, with Mr.. Walker at the piano.
Miss Grace Johnson made her first appear
ancc before an Elkton audience. She is
possessed OF well cultivated and sweet
soprano voice, a Duet by her and Miss Orn-
dorT being one of the features ofthe evening.
Mr.. Thomas Comella's cello solo did not con-
tribute to the program and was a disappont-
ment. With this single exception the pro-
gram was OF the highest excellence.
