This city will soon be placarded with
announcements of the coming of Davis &
Keogh's new farce comedy, The Finish
of Mr.. Fresh" This latest effort to please
the lovers of entertainment constructed
for laughing purposes only Is the result
of an experience that Thomas H. Davis
enjoyed during the past Summer while
paying a visit to Yellowstone Park. The
many ludicrous and humorous Incidents
that occurred during this trip are said
to have so impressed Mr.. Davis that,
upon his return to New York, he used
them as the nucleus of a farce. The COM
pany engaged to give the play includes
AL Wilson. George w. Day. the Stewart
sisters, Charles B. Ward, Katherine
Klare. Fanny Bloodgood, Anna Barclay,
Charles w. Hazan. Charles Earle True,
and Nellie Mccarthy.
The company engaged to support JEFF
ferson De Angels, who is to appear next
week at the Lafayette Square, in THE
Jolly Musketeer," is said to be an ideal
one Harry McDonough, who possesses
one of the best and longest records Of
New York hits, will be seen in the Sec
ond comedy role. With Mr.. De Angels
as the chief fun-maker. solid chunks of
pure and unadulterated joy. to say MOTH
ing about "shrieks of laughter" should
generate in the audiences gathered. The
two men have worked for many years to-
gether at the Casino. and easily represent
"a wonderful pair to draw to-" Van
Rensselaer, Wheeler, who will have the
{ chief romantic role, instead of being, as
ordinarily. a tenor. happens to possess a
baritone voice, and a fine one at that.

ENGINE HAS ARRIVED
WORK ON TIE NEW CITY HALL WILL
BE PUSHED FROM NOW ON.

The stationary engine to be used on
the new city hall arrived Yesterday af-
ternoon and the men worked last even
ing u set ftsup as tothave II N run
ming order early this morning.
There have been numerous complaints
from the residents about the work pro
crossing so slowly. We venture to say
that the fault does not lie with Mason &
Co., the contractors, and that they have
done their level best.
The engine, lumber and the other
material were ordered on time but for
some reason prompt shipments were
not made, which is no fault of the con-
tractors. The engine was shipped some
weeks ago but went astrny and tracer
had to be sent.
Foreman j. w. Dornsife told re-
porter yesterday afternoon that the work
will now be pushed. More men will
be added to the present force from time
to time and in u week or ten days the
first story will be finished. The brick
has been ordered of Fiske, Holmes Il
Co. and a shipment is expected in a
day or two.

Earnest for Prohibition.

Mr.. EDITOR There seems to be
quite little ripple of feeling manifest
ed of late in the prohibition camps OF
our state through the apprehension,
suppose, of vigorous attack from our
common enemy, high license. Now if
men and women were actuated by the
high principles of justice and humanity
instead of policy and expediency, this
high license sore would soon heal f.om
the bottom and never break out again.
When the appetite for intoxicating
liquors gets the control of man. he is
under the most fearful bondage that
man was ever subject to, and the time
is surely coming when the state or ma
ton that shall so violate first principles
as to issue licenses for the making of
such slaves will be considered i'm league
with the devil.
Our last government census shows
one million habitual drunkards. Every
one of these tried TO be a moderate
drinker and failed. Fully one-half of
this vast number are parents bringing
tainted race into the world; one hum
bred thousand each year are liberated
from their thraldom by death, and
their places are more than filed by re-
crlits from the bone and sinew of our
land.
Now the question is, Shall Vermont
her representative legislature
give expression in favor of this nefari-
Gus business BY issuing licenses the
payment of which is nothing more or

Prohibition-Idcense.

DEAR Mr.. EDITOR In your issue OF
March Sd, c. Ill. T.. makes some state
ments doubtful to my mind. If they
are true, believe he is in some meas
ure responsible.
IfC. H. T. knows of pocket rum
peddlersr and other secret dives where
rum is supplied illegally,it is his whole
duty to report the same TO the proper
officers, and if said officers fail TO per-
form their duty. report them TO the
governor or any high tribunal. II c.
ii. I. does not know of these places,
then he should keep silent and on the
watch until he does: then open wide
his mouth, cry aloud and spare not UNI
til the accursed thing is removed.
IfC. III. L. lives 10 see a license law
in Vermont, he will find that while
now there are a few leaks of this terri
BILE stuff among our people, then the
flood gates of damnation will be open
upon us; and that while we now have
a chance to punish the offenders when
caught. he will find that license pro-
hibits that chance.
lie says, s'Let a temperance man
handle it, | do not believe there is
yet born true Christian temperance
man or woman who would, under any
law or condition. sacrifice his
soul to sell rum; and. further, do not
believe any person would sell il only
for the profit they derive theretrom.
lie says, .'Some OF our best men buy
liquor | do not know what he means
by best in this case, but doubt that
any morally best man in Vermont or
anywhere else buys or uses rum as a
beverage, or advocates its use to his
own or his neighbours dear sons and
daughters; if he does, he is not best
man, according to the Bible or the die
tionary.
May | add that | believe very much
in the tone OF the letters of III. En-
Rochester. They seem to possess the
right kind of a ring. l hope she will
give us more ofthe same quality.
also believe in much of what you said
in your article regarding Montpelier.
There is something for &c. H. r." to
ponder over. l.. j. PAIGE,
