Folk of talent who earn renown in one
place have little pruepect OF being sup
ported by II in another. M. Coquplin Is
the greatest comedian of modern times.
yes his engagement in this u,try
was a financial failure. MouDet-Sully
represents the finest tragic art Of France,
yet he lost 100000 during his season in
America. Mmc. Rejane made prodi-
cious reputation in "Mme. Sans Gene"
yet we rejected her and approved the
raw method OF Kathryn Kidder in the
play. John Hare Is a high favorite in
London; we would have little to do with
him tore. We condemned May Yohe; she
goes TO London, marries lord and be-
comes a star. Cissy Fitzgerald earned
Sl0 week in London with never a hopo
of scandal here she receives $3.50 q
week aud rides In dog cart. Old men
were young when Nine. Albani was con-
demned by our audiences, but she is still
a nigh priced and fsvorite prima donna
in Covent Garden. The Kavoglis have
long been great successes in London,
but we revolted agains. them immedi-
a.eiy. In England The name OF sir
Augustus Harris was omnipotent. In
America it was dennis.

'sChimmi Fadden," the comedy drama
in which Charles Hopper will appear this
season, is sgid TO be o kaleid oscopic re-
hsction OF life in the slums and parlors
OF New York. The local character OF the
piece, however. i, 10 said, does net detract
from lis interest outside OF the metrcp lis
as "Chimmie" and the other characters
ere eli familiar types, easily recognizable
by tne inhabitants OF any big American
CITY.

OLD "vETS" AT SARANAC.

The Ionia county battalion of old
soldiers and sailors held their annual
meeting and picnic in Saranac last
Thursday. Over 400 old "vets" were
present with their wives and children.
The meeting in the afternoon was
held at the Opera house, where Hon.
James O'Donnell, of Jackson, enter
tanned them with one of his eloquent
talks. He brought tears TO many eyes,
and cheers from the throats of many
willing listeners. There were no pol
otics in his remarks. Nothing but
patriotism was heard in that speech
but 1t made men think which way to
vote.
The guests were given an emporium
ity to register at the hall and out OF
the 400 "vets" only eight declared for
