AT THE THEATERs.

Julia Marlowe Taber and Robert Taber bade
goodbye to st. Paul last night for another
year, selecting for their closing performance
Shakespeare's brilliant comedy Much Ado
About Nothing Mrs. Taber appeared as
Beatrice and Mr.. Taber as Benedick.
OF Mrs. Taber's Interpretation of Beatrice,
the saucy,= the witty and the charming
great deal might be said If it were not al
ready fraught with the most delightful recol-
lections, for Mrs. Tabers Beatrice is as well
known in St. Paul as her Rosalind and her
Juliet. Like the latter impersonations it
manifests greater breadth than her work of
previous seasons exhibited, though it could
scarcely show more delicacy and grace
Beatrice is one of the most exacting roles
in any of Shakespeare's comedies. 1t de-
mands union Of many qualities and his
trionic accomplishments. II played too daint-
lily or timidly the actress will fall short of
Shakespeare's Beatrice. II too boldly por-
trayed the lovable spirit Of the woman
would be absent If too saucily, we would
behold a pert creature not sweet woman
with world Of affection in her heart for
the man who can win 1t. There is dignity
and a force of character in Beatrice which
commands infinite respect. II this quality
Is absent in the representation, sympathy
and respect are absent in the spectator.
Mrs. Taber's portrayal Of Beatrice is truly
admirable, possessing infinite grace and deli,
cacy, vivactous humor and spirits and withal
the dignity Of a true woman.
Mr.. Taber's impersonation OF Benedick,
'the married man." Is an inproveme upon
his earlier efforts in this role In that he more
effectively emphasizes the blunt and soIdierly
nature of the man. AS is always the case
with this actor, he spoke the lines with ex-
cellent and discriminating emphasis and mod
ulation Of tone.

or some accident happen to the grip
or other parts of the machinery This
oversight resulted in the first and only
accident on the line. Shortly after
noon, Jan. g. 1888, grip broke on
train descending Selby avenue incline.
Powerless to check the runaway train,
the gripman and conductor stood by
their train. Tsle grip did not leave
the track, but the trailer turned over
and several persons were injured, but
only one fatally. This accident was
sufficient to create distrust i'll the pub
lie mind, and for a time the company
ran grips only, as the newspapers and
people, who professed to know all
about it, said the grips were not strong
enough to carry the trailers. But
gradually improvements were made
and the extra men were put on TO
man the extra brakes. Nowadays one
never hears of an accident, except
that it shows the absolute safety of
the appliances now in use.
Encampment week was the first real
test of the line. Thousands and thous-
ands of persons were transported up
and down the incline that week. The
cars were CROWDED at all times. Inc
trains were longer and more largely
patronized than ever before. But, with
all this, there were but three accidents
on the hill and none of them even
frightened the strangers. who did not
know anything was wrong until they
were told
One crowded train broke grip on
the middle of the incline. The extra
brakes were applied and the train al
lowed to slide slowly to the foot of
pushed the crippled grip and .trailers
up the hill. when near the summit of
the incline the grip on the rear train
gave way. Again the extra brakes
were applied and both trains brought
to a standstill and remained motionless
until the next train came along and
pushed them to the level Of the ave-
nue. above Summit avenue.
A few days previous descending
train caught a single horse wagon
loaded heavily with bricks on the in
cline. The horse could not get out of
the way. and the train was obliged to
stop. This was accomplished without
difficulty, and the train remained in
that position until the obstacle could
be removed
The regular men VINO are on that
run are Thos. Mcdonald. who has been
in the service of the company as hill
man for six years; Edward X Cav
anaugh, hill man for eight years, and
Geo. j. Lamphere, who has been on
duty two years. During the encamp-
ment four extra men were on duty
manning the extra brakes on the in
cline.
