DRAMATIC AND LYRIC.

Stuart Robson gives US four perform
ances and two plays, 1.-The Jucklins'
being the bill Thursday and Friday
evenings and Saturday afternoon, and
the famous Henrietta" being revived
Saturday (Christmas) night.
The Jucklins" was suggested to that
brilliant American dramatist, August
Thomas, by Opie Reads successful
novel of the same name, and it is pre-
dicted that he has fashioned play
which will become a permanent fixture
in the statues of American stage liter
ature, and a most attractive picture
in EIr. Robson's repertoire.
A decided novelty in the character
line is Lemuel Jucklin, a lovable, old
fashioned North Carolina farmer,
which NJ. Robson portrays in this
play. In fact, the play is said to be
full Of novel characters, who illustrate
gracefully a tender story of life near
the North Carolina line, a story, it is
said. OF simple life among the plain
folk who live I'D among the hills, a
picturesque story of a picturesque
place, where life is easy and the world s
never-ending struggle for existence is
unknown.
As an actor, Stuart Robson has al
ways been a novelty. His quaint pc
culiarities are possessed by no other

say that she had not perceptably
altered. and that her rendition of the
part was in every way as finely cut
as then.
The recent benefit for the actors

programme consumed over four hours
time. Julia Arthur presented "Mer-

act melodrama, in her best way, and

Regrets" in which Mr.. Drew assumed
a happy brogue. Possibly the number
most looked forward to was the second
act of 1.-THE Rivals in which Nat c.
Goodwin made his first New York ap-
pearance as Bob Acres. His intorpre-
tation of the part was applauded. He
was assisted by Andrew Mack, Max
inc Elliott and other we'll known per-
formers.

SHAME.

Two years ago Kentucky broke away
from her sister southern states, to
which she was allied by common ties
of blood, interest and citizenship, and
Joined Vermont, Pennsylvania and the
east in bending the worshipful knee to
Grover Cleveland. Electing a repub-
lican governor was her first step, and
never in the history of the great state
has there been so much scandal con-
nected with her executive department.
Charges affecting the honor and integ-
rity of Gov. Bradley have for want of
a better answer, been allowed TO pass
unchallenged. Kentucky, under re-
publican rule, has becn worse than
St. Louis under Filley. But to add TO
the disgrace already hoaped upon her
self, Kentucky elected Il republican
legislature. This Legislature was to
elect a senator. The republicans nomi-
mated DR.. Hunter, and for weeks have
tried to elect him. The trial has cost
the state $500 or more, and now it
turns IN that DIR. Hunter was trying
to buy his way to the senate like Quay
and Platt did, and as Gas Addicks
tried to do. Hunter is indicted, and
will probably 90 to the penitentiary
of the senate. The whole
affair is disgraceful TO the great state
of kentucky. The state disgraced
going republican. There is still
enough responsibility in the state to
prevent the election of a senator ac-
cording to New York, Pennsylvania
and Vermont methods. DR.. Hunter
has learned this and so has the state.
Kentucky strayed away from the fold
two years ago, but she will return.
The HANNAH Plat Quay-Addicks polit-
ical ethics don't suit Kentucky. They
disgrace her.

BASE BALL.
The Wentworth Military Acadamy
Team Defeats Richmond.

A very large crowd saw the first match
game of ball of the season at the Acadamy
parade ground on Monday afternoon.
The young ladies were out in full force
and the many colors of their bright cos
tunes gave the finishing touch to the
picture. Quite a number of Richmond
young folks drove over to witness the
game.
Richmond came, she saw, but did not
conquer, for at the end of the game the
score stood, Richmond z, w. M. A. 20.
The game was very interesting from start
to finish and was played in less than two
hours. 1t was exciting up to the sixth
inning when Richmond went to pieces.
The w. NJ. A. boys played we'll together.
Wagstaff was in the box and did good
work and is almost up to his last years
form. He is a fine player. McAIester at
second, who is captain of the team, did
some excellent playing. He knows his
business and has good command of the
players. HolemRn at left field is not only
n of the best players in the Acadamy
team but is the best feIde in the county
and he made some very difficult catches.
He will pitch some of the games. Ormsby
on third base is onto his Job. He made
the star play in Mondays game, making
a home run and bringing in two men.
Crane behind the bat aud Stoughton on
first base showed up we'll. They are both
alright. Phillips in the right field and
Gille in center know just what to do and
how to DE- 1t. They did some good work.
e. Sawyer, who was on the bench Mon
day, has proven what he can do. He is a
good pitcher. Sickler, who was also on
the bench, has not had a chance to show
as hat he can do. We expect to hear
from him next week. For Richmond the
two Bogie played most of the game but
they lack practice. Richmond was weak
ened by the loss OF three of their best men.
On Monday next the Acadamy team
plays Higginsville. They are coming up
in full force and expect to show the w.
M. A. club a thing or two. The game will
be called at 2:3O p. m. Admission to all,
% cents.
On May the LIST the Acadamy team will
go to Richmond and would like to have a
big crowd accompany them. They beat
them on their own grounds last year.
Why can't they do it this?
