parade the sands in wonderful long-tailed

Life In the Suburbs.

Whether you know 1t or not, that second
year in the suburban house is a crisis and
turning point in your life. for it will make
of you either a city man or a suburban.
and it will surely save you from being for
all the rest of your days, that hideous be-
creation of modern days of rapid transit,
who fuctuates helplessly between one town
and another; between town and CITY, and
between city ard town again, seeking an
impossible and unattainable perfection and
scattering renonstrant servant maids and
disputed bills for repairs along his cheer

GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

There was plenty of laughter and ap- plause at the Grand opera house last night by the immense audience present, who came to see the popular Irish com edian, Dan Mccarthy, in his great sue cess, "The Cruiskeen Lawn." The play tells a we'll connected, concise, interest," ing and dramatic story of the Ireland of to-day. It abounds in pathos and humor Its situations are always strong and sometimes intensely thrilling. Scen- lically, "The Cruiskeen Lawn is one of the most admirable productions on the stage. It shows among other things the 1 famous Giants Causeway, the Barney Stone and other spots of the Emerald 1 Isle that are dear to the Irish heart. 1 The Emmett band and orchestra rem 1 der a fine program of music in first class style.
 There will be a matinee to-day as we'll
 as the evening performance.
 1 In the mountains of East Tennessee 1 there lies a romantic glen known as I "Coon Hollow" Several years ago the bursting of dam in the mountains
 made this quaint place the scene of an linundation of almost the dimensions of
 the Johnstown horror, but not attended
 with the fatalities.
 I The place is a rural one, and it is
 amid these scenes that the incidents of | Charles F. Callahan's Romance of Coon Hollow are laid. The story told is pretty one dealing with incidents l in the lives of typical southerners, and the characters are neatly sketched with 1 all of those felicitous little touches that made Blue Jeans" famous. The kstrength of "Coon Hollow" lies In its humanity.
 The bursting of dam in this part of the country forms one of the principal effects in the modest play. The highest effect of stage realism is reached in the
 race between the steamboats Robert E.
 Lee and the Natchez on the Mississippi river. A unique electrical effect makes
 one of the scenes very strong. The lead- ing role of Clyde Harrod is played by Miss Santje.
 This great production comes to the
 Grand opera house the last three days of this week. There will be ladies'
 bon-bon matinee on Friday and the reg ular matinee Saturday.

Entertainments.

Mir. Stuart Robson will be seen In Mrs, Ponderbury's Past" at the lily perion tomorrow CThursday) evening. Matthew Ponderbury has two charac- teristics not easy to reconcile. He is a thorough scapegrace at heart and the most abject and henpecked of men. One remarkable occasion is when Mrs, Pom derbury discovers him in an artists studio in company with the music hall singer, in his shirt sleeves, and with the door locked. Things go far more badly with him, however, when for second time he is found in the company of the singer and his trick will no longer work with his now thoroughly suspicious wife. But chance at last comes to his rescue and throws across his path the villain of Mrs. Ponderbury's past" who tells the true story that the knife was used in cutting an orange by the pretty girl who allowed the stranger to kiss her and the submissive Matthew thenceforth becomes master of his own house. The character of Ponderbury is admirably adapted to MT. Robson's hu- nor and won success at the Garrick theater, New York, during it's long run. Sale of seats now open. On Friday evening at the Hyperion theater, under the auspices of Miss Jus tine Ingersoll one of the best popular concerts ever presented will be given. The array of talent is a stupendous one and includes the Mozart symphony club, which consists of an excellent string quartet, and owe their renowned reputation to the fact that they are the only musical organization who play such obsolete instruments as the viola d'armour GA strings) and the da gamba Q0 strings), also the royal triumphal trumpet, feet in length, which was played during the reign of Julius Caesar, and the chromatic harp, which 1 is constructed entirely different from l the old harp, pedal work being entirely abolished 1t has an imposing appear ance, being much larger that the ordi- nary one used, and resembles a double instrument; while it's tone is remarkably full and resonant, yet clear and sweet.
 Miss Louise Gumaer will be the vo- calist. This lady has a splendid con-
 tralto voice, and is pupil of Signor Agramonte. Miss Ingersoll will recite 
 Heine's "Loreley," with musical ae- compartment, arranged by MT. Des- 1 sauer.
 The sale of seats is now open at the
 Hyperion box office, which is the only
 place where they can be obtained. There will be no private sale.

Auichlx Pathetic Case.

Colchester, Feb, 11.-Charles c. Rog- CTS. aged twenty-six years. one of the best known and most popular young men in town, committed suicide last night by shooting himself with a S2-cal- ibre revolver. He was weakened in health owing to protracted watching by the bedside of his dying mother, and at her death he said that he did not care to live any longer. He wrote note to his father asking that his funeral take place at the same time as that of his mother, Thursday at o'clock. Then, after making all his final preparations, Rogers went to his room and fired a shot into his side.
 The ball passed through the upper lobe of the liver and through an artery, causing death by internal hemorrhage.
 Rogers was assistant agent at the To- cal station of the New York, New Ha- ven and Hartford railroad and also held the position of telegraph operator. He was unmarried.
