MUSIC AND DRAMA.
RICHARD MANSFIELD.

Much pleasuraible anticipation has
been aroused since the announcement
that Americas foremost actor, Mr..
Richard Mansfield, assisted by his New
York Garrick Theater Stock company,
viii pay our city a visit this season 1t
is not often that an attraction Of such
magnitude comes here, and our local
management ought to be congratulated
upon their endeavor to supply Wichita
with such a sterling attraction.
1t is announced that Mr.. Mansfield's
date is October 13, and it no doubt will
prove one OF the most artistic engage
ments ever seen in this city. By che
leasing of the Lawrence opera house
Manager Martling has been able to
give Wichita tgleater goers two nights
instead of one and as the house has
nothing till October 80, theater goers
can take advantage of this great event.
FACTS.
Here are some interesting facts about
Mr.. Perry, who is to play here on Oc-
toEber 10, at Sedgwick Music hall. First,
he is the only blind pianist in the
worlds history Who ever gained an un-
questioned position in the front rank
of his profession Second, he is the on
ly American pianist who ever played at
the imperial court of Germany. Third,
he is the only pianist living or dead
who ever played in twelve hundred con-
certS IN ten years, SURPRISING even
Gottschalk's world famous record of
eleven hundred Fourth, he is the only
pianist, America or foreign, who ever
succeeding in sustaining himself for a
period OF ten consecutive years by con-
cert playing alone.

stenographer who made a report of the
speeches of Hon. Jerry Simpson and
Hon. Chester l. Long in their joint de-
bate in the city of Wichita on October

crihed the notes accurately for the

assistant and there is no question in my
mind but what he transcribed the part

ITALIAN ANTIQUITIES.
An Underground Trade In Them In Spit
OF Legal Interdtctiona


OF Legal interdtctionA
Some days ago a well-known deale:
in antiquities offered for sele TO the
Louvre museum in Paris spleDdid col
lection of ancient vases from Italy oi
Greek or Italian workmanship, says the
London News. The museum was Una-
BILE TO pay the price asked s 10000
and declined the bargain. The ItaliaI
minister of education. having learned oi
this, has taken proceedings under thu
Pacca law against Sig. di Frisco, thu
owner of these antiquities. The latter i.
large land owner at Bosco Reale. He
secretly mado excavations on his estate
and found 2S silver vases Of remote an
tiquity.
Notwithstanding the Italian law pro
hibiting owners of antiquities from
sending them out of the country with
out leave, or. rather, on account of thi,
law, which prevents old works Of art
from commanding anything like theii
natural price in the impoverished eoun'
try, Sig. di Frisco smuggled his find out
OF Italy and offered 10 TO n Paris dealer
for 5000. Continuing meanwhile bis
search, he found other silver vases
which duly joined their fellows in Paris
and the whole lot was offered to the
Louvre. The Italian minister of educa,
'iion throws interesting light ON the
facilities which underpaid officials ar,
supposed TO afford Illicit exporters OF
antiquities. lie issues a notification
that, should any officials be found "a
have connived at this latest evasion O
the Pecca law, they viii be crininally

CHASING A GOVERNMENT.
Dfmculty That Chinese Ambassador
Experienced In France.

Experienced In France.
The present voyage of Ii Hung
Chang brings to memory the trials of
Chang How, once Chinese ambassador
10 France. In 1870, says the New York
Times, he went 10 Europe to settle the
contentious which had arisen follow
| ing the massacre of Tien-Tsin. When
Chang How left China the French en-
pire still existed; when he landed in
| France the empire had been over
thrown, and he did not know to whom
he should address himself. At Marseilles
they told him that government had
been installed at Tours. Chang How
went there as soon as possible, but
found that MN. Cremeieux and Glais
Buzoin, who then represented tie gov
ernment, had gone to Bordeaux. Let
US go to Bordeaux" said Chang How,
philosophically. but when he arrived
The old difficulty srose-to whom
should be present himself. Cremeieux or
Admiral Fourichoir? No one could tell
him. Gambetta was coming in a bal
loon, but it was impossible to reach him.
Then Chang How went IN see Jules
Favre. He was told that the assembly
had gone to Versailles. VERY we'll"
he said. ''let US go to Versailles" So
the entire embassy left for that city.
At last NJ. Thiers had been appointed
head of the government. and Chang
How would be able to speak to him.
Not at all. They demanded the ambas-
sador's credentials for the new govern
ment- He had none. I'm that case il
Is impossible TO present you. Go to
Peking. get your papers made out in
due form. return, and you will be pre-
sented to n. Theirs" So Chang How
took his departure.

Said ticket to be voted upon at
the general election in April, 1896,
bv the white voters of the parish of
Lafayette, La.
BY the Committee.

ID. A. CocHRANE, Secretary.
What vacillation!
They said they would submit to
the action of the party.
At the first opportunity they
bolted the party.
They announced they would hold
primaries on December II to elect
delegates to Shreveport:
They did not hold any primaries
on that or any other day.
On Nov. II they said they would
hold primaries on March to elect
delegates to the judicial and sena-
torial conventions.
On Dec. IL they met at the court
house and appointed delegates to
the judicial and senatorial conven-
tons, and
On Jan. I6, two months before
their proclaimed primaries and with
out any explanation, they came out
with their ..People's Ticket"
Comments are unnecessary. In
all seriousness can any faith be
placed in anything the committee
might do or say7 AS artful dodgers
and political acrobats the members
of this famous committee are GER
tainly entitled to the championship
belt of the world They have shown
their promises and professions are
not worth the paper they are written
ON. They started out as Democrats
and if we may judge from the head
ing of the ticket they have landed
in the camp of the Populites. How
long they will remain there, Coo
only knows. Taking them by theil
word and judging by their actions
can anyone tell what they will do il
the future?

President Cleveland, in a letter to
Sena tor Caffery, emphatically de-
mics the charges made by certain
Senators that the administration
had arranged to place the new issue
of bonds with syndicate, but on
the contrary, he and Secretary Car
Isle had always leaned to popular
loan and advertising for bids when
ever the subject was under discus
sion. In his denial the President
deservedly rebukes those Senators
who made the mendacious assertions
of the New York World basis of
their attack upon Hmm. O..
States.
