A DICKENS NIGHT.
Miss Putnam in Two Distinct
Roles.

Roles.
The characters in Dickens books are
so widely different from those met
with every day that actors have no
models to follow-they must take their
conceptions entirely as Dickens de-
scribes them AS Little Nell and the
Marchioness, Miss Putnam followed
closely the ideas of the author though
it was evident that the heart of the
little actress was more in the rolicking
slavey-the Marchioness,-tha in
the SANITY Nell.
The production is Miss Putnam's own
version of the story and it varies little
from the later productions of the same
play by Lotta Miss Putnam's por-
trayal of the two characters is hardly
open to criticism, she is all that the
story calls for and all that a critical
audience demands.
Mr. Emery made a very acceptable
Dick Swiveler and his various scenes
with the Warehouses were delight
fully acted.
Next to these, the acting of Mr..
O'Hara as the repulsive, scheming
Quilp was the feature of the night. To
the reader of Dickens, Mr.. O'Hara left
nothing to the imagination, the make
ND. gestures. The hatred and the
scheming devil which the author in
tended the character to be was faith
fully carried out by the actor.

INsrrRGENT DEFEATS REPORTED.

Havana, Nov 1s.-It is officially reported that the
combined forces, under Colonel Esteban recently
had an engagement with an insurgent force under
the leadership Of Varano. at Mogote. In the Prov

surgents were put to flight leaving twenty one on

run the domestic cigar factories. and thus. by
giving employment to workmen. keep them from
drifting into the insurgent ranks. 1t was a
matter Of common report. however, that another
potent reason a desire to cripple the Cuban
cigarmakers in the United States from whom
the insurgents drew funds.
1t now seems probable that the decree Will
soon be vacated. Reports that come to Wash
ington are to the effect that the new crop of
tobacco which will be ripe in February next. is
OF excellent quality. and amounts to four-ffths
OF an average crop. Buyers for foreign con-
sumption are already in the field looking over
the plantations and it is expected that to facili-
tate sales the revocation of the decree will soon
be announced.

FRUITS OF THE PRESIDENTS POLICY
ONLY ONE AMERICAN CITIZEN REMAINS IN A
CUBAN PRISON.
Washington, Nov. Is (SpeciaD.-The release OF
the Competitor prisoners ends what might be
called the first chapter in President Mckinney S

lean citizens. More than a score OF these were
held as prisoners by the Spanish authorities
when the President took office Some OF then
were under alleged death sentences With SIN
gle exception. every one of these men mas since
been released. The exception Is Louis someli-
Ian, who is in prison at Havana. Someian Is
a native of Cuba but had lived in the United
States and was naturalized citizen. He was
arrested on charges of completely In the rebel
lion and was sentenced TO life Imprisonment IN
chains An appeal was taken in his case, and
II has never been acted on, though Consui-Gen-
eral Lee has pressed for something to be done
which would enable his release to be demanded
1t is understood that Somellan will be included
in General Blanco's amnesty proclamation ana
thus the last American suffering Imprisonment
in Cuba will be freed.
The pardoning Of the Competitor prisoners by
the Queen Regent in advance of the amnesty
proclamation was meant as a special marx OF
goodwill toward the United States. and to
show the desire of the Sagasta Ministry to cult
vate friendly relations. Admira! Navarro, who
had threatened to resign If the original death
sentence was not carried out. has aleady been
relieved of his command in Cuban waters. With
the release Of the prisoners, the Competitor case
can hardly be made o further source of irritation
between the two countries The owner or the
ship may claim that his property should be re-
stored to him, but that Is a matter for diplo-
matte correspondence. The Competitor is at the
