Tony Pastor, young at heart and clipper
as ever. despite the rim of snow that is be-
ginning &c gather around the summit, is at
the Park Theater this week with a good
company. Large audiences greeted the at
traction yesterday. The dropping of q sand
bag, used TO weigh a fly drop, caused some
little confusion on the stage in the after
noon, and interfered with one of the turns,
but Mr.. Pastor used the occurrence to his
advantage in a little comment on dust"
in general. Mr.. Pastor sings several new
songs, or, rather, new words to old tunes,
and the audiences took very kindly to them,
although there was one a trihe woolly for
the Park. Miss Maud Raymond, a well-es-
taDliShed faVOrite in vaudeville, had the au-
dlence in an uproar q few minutes after she
appeared. She told q number of good
stories, with the proper evolutionary trim
mlngS, and IN her take offs on various
nationaities she scored a hit. The De Fill
nppts, dancers mo relation to the Minne-
apoliS twirler), form one of the strong fea-
lures of the SHOW. The woman is a very
graceful ballet dancer. They have a neat
way Uncle Sans great love for little
Cuba. Barnes and Sisson have a clean, at
tractive speciality Among the other people
with the company are Alburtus and Wes-
ton, club Jugglers, the Ryans and Wood
III comedy and singing specialties; Watson
ana Hutchings, IN a sketch; Edwin Latte1
musical comedian; the Gilmore Sisters, and
George E. Austin, comedy wire walker
The programme offered is an excellent one
In vaudeville Tony Pastors company is
here for three days only. The Broadway

Crane in "a Virginia Romance

CEune IN ~ tATbAhAss AeOAnuhCe'
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept 2O.-~Eugene w.
Presbrey's new comedy. "A Virginia Court
ship" was played at the Baldwin Theater
tonight by w. III. Crane for the first time
on any stage. The comedy is in three acts,
and, being set in the early portion of the
century, presents opportunity for handsome
and picturesque costuming. which the pro-
Queer was careful to take advantage of.
The story OF the play is one in which love
and intrigue are salient features. A pep
perry old major, whose illustrlous ancestor
was one of the first settlers in the colony
of Virginia, quarrels with his neighbor, a
French widow. The latter has daughter,
the former son, who plight their troth,
ard after many viscisitudes the widow and
major adjust their differences and the for
mer sets her cap at the gallant old soldier
Judging from the reception accorded both
play and author, its success is already as
Sured. Some of the scenes were heartily
appreciated and vigorously applauded.

Quelling n SchOolbOy Riot.

In the winter of lS6O-l, the ma.
Jority of the students at the VIr.
ginia Military Institute were seces
Sionists, while the people of the
town were almost unanimously foI
the Union. One day, two of the
students came back to the institute
much worsted in q fight with the
villagers, and the whole school re.
solved on vengeance. Selling their
guns, large number of the boys
started toward the town. On their
way they had to pass professor Jack
sons house, and he came out Just i'm
time to intercept them. Jackson
stepped on horse-b block in front of
the house, and just as the foremost
OF the students came abreast of him,
he called out, in his most command
ing tone:
Halt; front face!n
Almost instinctively they obeyed,
and after waiting for tho stragglers
to come up, he said, in his mildest
tone:
Well, young gentlemen, where
are you going?"
One of the young men explained
~ " NOiy SACileu way, tndL TWO OF
the boys" bad been maltreated by
the villagers, and they were deter
mined on revenge.
Well," said the professor, "that
may all he very we'll; but whom
have you for leader"
They had not thought of that,
they said.
Well, suppose l lead you ?" said
Professor Jackson.
Nothing would suit them better.
All right" said the professor !;
but before we start, we must get a
little better organization"
To that end he marched and coun-
termarched them, wheeled them up
and down the road, and, in short,
carried them through all the evolu-
tions necessary for his purpose,
which was to cool them off. That
being accomplished, he halted them
before the hOrseblock, and, having
lectured them, he wound up by adj
vising them to go back to school and
be good boys. And this they did,
after giving three cheers for Profes.

LIFE'S SCARS.
ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.

They say the world is round. and vet
L often think it square
80 many little hurts we get
FROM corners here and there.
but one great truth in life We found
while Journeying to the west
The only folks who really wound
Are those we love the best.
Inc man you thoroughly despise
Can rouse your wrath, tits true
Annoyance in your heart will rise
AT thlngs mere strangers do:
But those are only passing ills
This rule all lives will prove:
The ranking wound which aches and
thrills
Is dealt by hands we love.
The choicest garb, the sweetest grace.
~ Are OFT to strangers shown;
1he careless mien, the frowninp face
Are given to our own.
We fiatter those we scarcely know:
We please the fleeting guest;
ana deal full many a thoughtless blow
10 those who love us best.
Love does not grow on every tree,
Nor true hearts yearly bloom.
Alas for those who only see
This truth across a tomb.
but, soon or late, the fact grows plain
TO all through sorrows test ;
The only folks who give us pain
Are those we love the best.

a flourishing provincial town one
day received call from customer
who wished to buy stone for his
mothers grave. After looking anx-
iously about for some time, and
making numerous remarks as to his
mothers taste, he finally fixed his
gaze upon "a stone which the stone
cutter had prepared for another per-
sou. 81 like this one," he said, de-
cidedly; " I'll take this"
But that belongs to another
man." demonstrated the stonecutter,
"and it has the name Francis cut
on it, you see; that wouldn't do for
your mother"
"Oh, yes, it would" responded
the countryman. Mother couldn't
read; and besides," he added, as he
saw the stonecutter's expression,
"she'd like it all the better if she
could read, for Francis was favorite
name Of hers, anyhow"
