GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

s'Coon Hollow" fouf-act comedy
 drama, was presented before a good sized audience despite the storm last night The play portrays southern life | in most interesting and entertaining | manner, the scenes being laid in the mountain region of Tennessee and Ken lucky, and along the banks of the Mis- 1 issippi.
 | Since it's first production in Chicago | it has been changed somewhat, and the changes have been very much for the | better, as it has greatly strengthened the piece in many instances. There is very little doubt as to it's drawing abil- | ities, as large and appreciative audi | ences have greeted the play and players in every city it has been presented. | Although not wholly original in its construction, the author has shown great care in the study of character and locality in writing Coon Hollow" and has been successful in producing a strong, interesting and highly amusing comedy drama.
 The piece contains many stirring sit nations, which are worked up with great care, especially that at Coon Hol- | low, where a dam is blown up. The change from the Bechymer's apart ments to that of Mississippi landing was another very pretty scenic effect, and one that caught the applause of the audience. The closing of this scene shows a spirited steamboat race be- tween the Robert E. Lee and the Natchez.
 i In this scene a plantation dance by number of darkeyrs is introduced and their songs and dances were great I hit.
 The cast numbers some excellent act. ors, including William McCready, Wal
 ter Kelly, M. M. Murray, Harry F. Ad- ans, w. D. Ingram, Miss Annie M Charles, Miss Santije, Miss Lizzie Har- 1 den, Miss Sallie B. Carr, Miss Lizzie
 Evans W. Bradley and Louis Henry. l There will be a bon-bon matinee this afternoon. Every lady will be present l ed with a box of 1oon-bons. l The regular matinee will be given to- I morrow.
 | Between acts one and two Professor Charles Wallace's "Glyptorama," which 1 consists of a series of views, was ex. 1 hibited.
 A notable attraction will be offered at the Grand opera house in the shape ot l the famous and ever popular Wilbur Opera company, who will be seen at the | Grand opera house for one week, com | mencing with the matinee on Monday next, February IT, in a well selected repertoire of comic operas. There will | be matinees daily.
 i At the close of each performance will | be introduced the famous Wilbur high art living pictures. Sixteen pictures will be shown each night and the list of subjects will be changed at least twice during the week. Seats are now or

THE KNITTED WAIsrcoArs.
Revival of smart Fashion Introduced in
 Italy.

Itaiys
 From the Queen.>
 The new silks lately introduced for crochetting and knitting fashionable waistcoats forclbly recalls the simmer ing ones donned by our great-grand- mothers, and most likely worked by themselves in faint imitation of the gorgeous articles worn by men during several centuries. The modern knitter will probably shrink from vieing with the patient skill of the women of for mer age, but we may depend on the hand knitting machines and manufac turers' frames to revive the idea and produce marvellous adaptations of the once gaudy craze. Here is an example of a showy waistcoat lost in TIP by a Mrs. Beale, and described by Malcolm" as knitted with green silk and gold and silver flowers all over it, further en- hanced with about fourteen yards of gold and silver thick lace. This smart fashion was probably first introduced from Italy, the country of gold and sil- yer weaving. In fact, there is at the South Kemsington museum a coat Of Italian origin belonging to the seven- teenth century, and similar to cardi- gan without pockets. It is knitted in pale blue stocking web, set off in front and at the back with wide bands of flowers and scrolls wrought entirely in gold and silver, but whether knitted with the silk or grafted on the webbing is not easy to ascertain through the bad light and glass door. These designs extend about two inches from the shoul- der seams down to three sets of dice pattern The somewhat full sleeves are headed with several rows of garter stitch, and displaying the fancy device. Blue silk binds the neck and the fronts, over which are either worked close but tonholes or sewn blue and tinsel but tons surrounded with the Greek pattern in chain stitch.

In addition there are the clever speeialties introduced by Miss Flo Banks, the Ammons-Clerise trio, Mir. and Miss Campbell, Miss Rosina Venus, George Moore, and MT, Baker and Miss Lynn. Next week a grand double feat ure will be presented in the three Ntghton brothers, marvellous English acrobats and ring performers, and Mile Frasetty the Parisian acrobatic danc- CT, making very sensational chief at trction.

and disastrous runaway in the Sixth
ward late yesterday afternoon. The
result is demolished wagon and
an injured horse.
The team in some way became
frightened and without any warning
dashed down Twenty-sixth street
from Seventh avenue. Nearing the
corner of Sixth avenue on Twenty
sixth street the rear portion of the
conveyance became weary of the
speedy travelling and fell by the way
side. taking along the ice repository.
This seemed to egg the frightened
animals on and when in attempting
to turn the corner of Fifth-and-a-haif
avenue and Twenty-sixth street one
of the horses, which is handicapped
in such affairs in not having the use
of its visionary powers. came against
a tree and it was with a loud crash.
The wagon tongue struck at THE
same time and was reduced to smith

down by the collision, but was fin.
ally raised to its feet luckily with
out any severe injury. The several
sections of the ice wagon were gotten
together; and the ice man said, ..git

Electric Bitters is q medicine suit
ed for any season, but perhaps more
generally when the lapguid ex-
hausted feeling prevails. when the
liver is torpid and sluggish and the
need OF tonic and Alternative is felt.
A prompt use of this medicine has
often averted long and perhaps fatal
bilious fevers. No medicine will act
more surely in counteracting and
freeing the system from the malarial
poison. Headache, Indigestion. con-

soon after something caused them to
break loose, and they went north on
Main street at. lively pace. They
attempted to turn the corner at the

going too fast. They straddled q
lamp post. taking it down, and one
horse went through Mrs. Dorrance's
picket fence, while the other one
kept the sidewalk for about two rods,
