be a very skllful worker in modern
magic and sleight of hand, and gives
much satisfaction. Kaoly, the acrobat,
is a wonder. We have had none here

equaled his feats. He is an all-around
marvel in acrobatic exercises During

the leading women singers, and Messrs.
Dunbar, Lift and Langlois the leaders
on the male side. Mr.. Lift carries the
chief low comedy part, doing it admir-
ably and evidencing native comedy
ability of a fine order, while Miss john
son has the soubrette roles and proves
to be not only a strong contralto, but
an actress with notable mimetic pow
ers. She was a favorite from the time
she set foot ON the stage last night.
In response to hearty recall in the
third act she gave reading THE Lady
and the Lion," with humorous musical
accompaniment, that was as clever and
witty an Interpolation as anything we
have ever had here. She was again
recalled, and gave a second but briefer
ludlcrous reading. Her facial.expression
is grotesque, apt and in itself laugh
maker. Miss Carle is a lady of ex-
cellent stage presence, a pleasant So
prano OF not great strength but of
sweetness, clearness and expression
Miss Lodge also sings a good contralto,
and at least three other ladies gave
good vocal support last night in brief
passages. Mr. Dunbar is robust
tenor fortified by good acting quality,
and Mr.. Lift and Mr.. Phillips are sing
ing comedians of more than ordinary
lyric and dramatic ability. The chorus
is spirited, we'll balanced and thorough
ly we'll trained. There is no laggard
action, no waiting for instruction and
no hesltancy in any respect, and in
the matter of distinctneSS of enuncia-
tfon the troupe is a. fine model. All in
all, the Grau company is a good one,
gives a very pleasing performance, and
is level with some of far greater pre-
tensions. to hear which our people have
paid twice the price of admission. The
weeks engagement of the troupe here
ought to draw well, for the work of the

and the entertainment given, judging
by that of last evening, will be deserv-
ing of recognition by an appreciative
public. This evening the comic opera,

STRAIGHT STATE TICKET.
The Populists Decide to Run a straight
State Ticket.


CLARKsBURG. Sept AFTER two
days Of fruitless barter and dickering
the Democratic State Committee and
political heelers. headed by Colonel John
T. MctSraw, have gone home and left
the Popnist State Committee masters Of
their own party and keepers Of their
own consciences. The Popnhst commit
tee could not be threatened, cajoled nor
bought. after their Wheeling experience,
to endorse Mr.. See See" Watts for
Governor on his "see- saw platform.
The Popuiists stood firm under every
kind of inducement They were prom
ised state patronage without stint and
place on the Democratic State ticket,
other and in addition TO two electors, ii
they would only fall i'll aud let the
Democratic whale put the Populist
party in its belly. But the Populists
declined the baited hook.
Mr.. Isaac G. Ralphsayder, who was
nominated by the Populists for Governor
at their Petersburg convention, and
NOT nominated at the Wheeling Demo-
cratic convention, resigned In his
place the Populist committee named
General Nat Ward Fitzgerald Of
Preston county and he heads their solid,
straight state ticket
After the Democrats had given up
their attempt at fusion ON the state
ticket and also on electors. and left, the
Populist committee decided to endorse
the four Democratic district electors,
and for electors at large named two Pop
ulists, James Basel of Lewis and III. T..
Houston of Greenbrier Thus they fuse
OH four out OF six electors.
The Democrats have a straight cleo
toral ticket, having named General" j..
w. ST Clair Of Fayette ana sam ".
Woods of Barbour as electors at-large.
Thus endeth the second lesson of
Democratic attempts to swallow the
Populist party bodily and leave none for
seed But the Populists propose to run
their own state ticket as i'll former
years.
How has the mighty West Virginia
Democracy fallen From the party Of
of Governor Jackson's time to the whin-
ing, supplicating disorganization of to-
day is a mighty fall The only hope to
elect Watts was through the despised
and oft rejected Populists-and that
chance is gone.
