BULL HATES SHERMAN.

The attacks that the British press
seem to have conformity agreed to
make upon Secretary sherman only
serve to show the venom in the British
mind. Sherman is to them the repre-
sentative of the American idea in its
largest sense. There is no jingolsm
about Sherman. He is solid, earnest,
firm, direct, goes to his work in the
most positive manner and with the
least circumlocution. He wastes no
words in dealing with his subject and
calls things by their everyday names.
John Bull finds out that no SUFFERING
es will avail him. No attempt to
evade the responsibility goes with
Sherman. He knows the meaning of
the agreement by which the govern
ments of both countries are bound
and he insists that these agreemnts
are to be kept alike in the spirit and
in the letter. 1t is this directness that
Great Britain does not like. The firm
ness Of the administration under Nc
Kinley is in such marked contrast to
the shilly-shally methods of the last
administration at Washington, and
this contrast so decidedly unfavorable
to British pretension, that the English
heart is hot. 1t would not be seemly
to break out upon the president of the
Nation, with whom the secretary is so
closely allied and by whom the whole
movement of the state department is
directed responsibly, and so attack is
made on Secretary Sherman. The
Sherman family are not unused to
these things. Old Tecumseh was
charged during the war with being
drunk or crazy, and that by men high
in authority in the Union camp. Now
it is charged that John Sherman, Sec
rotary of state for the republic, is
crazy. This time the charge comes
from over the water instead of on this
side of it, but it will turn out no bet
ter than the charges against the old
general. The Shermans have served
their country too long nor TO be known.
No man under Grant Connected with
the Federal hosts, went down to dust |
with greater honors than clustered |

No man of this generation has render |

ton who is fitted to conduct it's for |

service by foreign enemy, protested

expected, but it will only the more Ell

Another Large Audience.

The Opera House was again comforta-

second time in this city, and the audience
was just as well pleased as on the previ.
vious evening, although the program
was almost identicaIly the same. A large
number who were present Monday even
iIg also attended last evening, 20 pleased
were they with the entertainment.
The scenes shown last evening were all
very good and frequently brought forth
applause, the scene OF the Black Diamond
express laundering down the Lehign Val
ley at the rate OF sixty miles an hour was
very much appreciated and the audience
demanded It's repetition. Loie Fuller in
her famous serpentine dance was also re-
peated by request.
The musical concert by Edison's Micro
photograph gives pleasing variety to
the entertainment. The selections playe
are all the very latest metropolitan fay
