Ne Given Tonieht-Newsites.

Frank +. Longs theatre company
opened weeks engagement at the Opera
House last evening with that greatest OF
modern melo-dramas, In Old Kentucky"
There was a large attendance and near
~ every seat was taken. Everybody
present, whether he paid 10 or 80 cents
for his accommodations went away with
the pleasant satisfaction of having re-
ceiyed double his moneys worth.
Mr.. Long himself sustains the part OF
Col. Sandusky Doohttle, known from
Name TO California as a race horse man,
who gets himself into several laughable
predicaments by proposing to and being
accepted by a maiden lady, who has scru-
Piles against horse racing and who makes
his promise TO iorgo the pleasure OF at
tendance on race courses In the great
race on which the story runs, he com
promises with his conscience and dignity
and through knot hole watches the
race. At this point he comes upon bis
wife who is also trying to learn the re.
suits OF the race without sacrificing her
principles against the sport as she would
do by sitting in the grand stand.
Miss Annie Thomas, as Madge, took
the place OF drunken jockey and rod,
Queen Bess to victory, thereby saving
the fortunes of Frank LAWSON, the mare,
owner, and winning an adoring husband
Charles Hatfield took the part OF 10,
Laurie, the owner of the whiskey still
II. +. Newell as Horace Holton, the vii
lian, and Bessie Maher, as his daughtel
Barbara holton, who was also in low,
with Frank Layson, acted their parts tC
perfection. Nelson Gray, as Ned, the col
ored character, was excellent and BIZ
specialties drew much hearty applause, al
did also the German character in the bro
ken English songs.
The scenic effects throughout were yery
good. During the evening and between
the acts the Ideal orchestra rendered sey
eral fine selections and the Red JACKIE
band appeared on the stage in the rae
track scene.
The popular drama, "rrilby ;" will b.
presented this evening and the compan,
will probably be greeted by a crowde,
house.

arrived, drawn by steamIng, foaming
horses, at 7 o'clock. 1t was then light
enough to make out the plight of the
men on the ill-fated Calumet. They
were seen huddled in and about the
pilot house, the only place of refuge,
for the steamer was submerged to the
main deck. Moreover, she was liter
ally a ship of ice, having been deluged
for ten hours with water that left layer
upon layer wherever it struck. The
poor fellows on board we're motionless,
apparently frozen to their tracks and
too far gone to give any sign OF Joy at
the promised delivery. Indeed, with
the best of luck it seemed a hopeless
case.
Snow was still falling and the dis
tance to the wreck seemed less than it
really proved to be, for when 600
yard line was sent whirling toward it
from the hne-throwiug gun it fell far
short. Daylight had shown the life
savers a terrible surf lashing tie foot
of the bluff, and with line and buoy
to depend upon no one thought OF
venturing the boat in that dangerous
sea. But true bravery faces danger
when it must for some noble cause.
