~Pnrk-nDnrkest America.n

1t seemed like "all de cullud popilashun"
and a large part of the white turned out
yesterday afternoon and last night at the
Park Theater to enjoy the countless good
things contained in the performance given
by John w. Vogel's Minstrels, combined
with Darkest America" This is one Of the
best all-colored organizations that has Wis
tied indianapolis. The historical extrava-
ganza, Darkest America" is almost a
whole show in itself, with its bewildering
presentation of darby singing, dancing and
comical antics. In it appears the excellent
quintet known as the Charleston Shout
ors, who belle their name greatly, for they
discourse much sweet music. The first part
of the performance concludes with an excit-
ing and amusing buck and wing dancing
contest, participated in by the entire COM
pany. Charles 3. Tyler started the olio ball
with an entertaining act, after which La She
performed some wonderful feats on an ex-
ceedingly slack wire, without the ala or q
balancing pole. Following him came Laura
Walker, who possesses a powerful soprano
voice. Messrs. Bailey and Durant showed
themselves highly skilled with the from
bone. The little Misses Sallie Lee and Lille
Carey made a fair division of honors in
graceful dancing and clever singing of coon
songs. Lawrence" while perhaps not the
greatest trick cyclist in all the world, is
entitled to take rank among the foremost.
In placing John Rucker, 1.-THE Alabama
Blossom at the end Of the olio, the man
agement adopted the plan of keeping the
best for the last. The way Rucker kept his
audience in a roar of laughter all through
his varied entertainment, consisting of funny
remarks, queer facial contortions and side
splitting renditions of coon melodies would
have swelled an ordinary 'cullud person" to
the point of bursting. The grand cake
walk" with which the whole entertainment
conc 1Ided. was a little disappointing, in that
It lacked liveliness, but on the whole 1t was
very good. The show will remain until
Thursday, when The Girl from Paris
comes to finish out the week. The present
week at the Park bids fair to be a record
hraaler

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WABASH, Ind, Feb. 27.-Fire at 2 o'clock
this afternoon broke out in the laundry of
Whites Institute, four miles south of this
city, and the main building was soon a mass
of flames. There is no adequate protection
against fire on the premises, and though the
farmers hastily gathered, they could do
nothing but save the school building, barn
and other outbuildings. The loss will range
from $500 to $4,000 on buildings and con-
tents. The institute is one Of the landmarks
Of Wabash county and is invested with much
historical interest. The GAO acres of land on
which the buildings stand were decided to
the Friends Church by Mr.. White, a prom
inent member of the denomination, forty
years ago, to be used as a training school
for agriculturists. Boys without homes were
taken at the institute and instructed in
farm work. Fourteen years ago, it being
impossible to secure enough boys to war
rant the conduct of the institute on old
lines, the trustees made a contract with
the government whereby it received Indian
children from the various Western reserva-
tons and educated them, receiving an all
lowance for this service from the public
treasury. Several hundred boys and girls
brought here painted and We're
returned instructed in the trades and in agri-
culture, and became teachers of their W
people. Five years ago, when the allowance
Of the government to sectarian schools was
voluntarily given up, 1t became Improbable
to educate the Indians and all were sent
back. Lately the trustees have had con-
tracts with several counties in this vicinity
whereby orpha children were received,
cared for and educated, at the rate fixed
by law, 70 cents a day each. None OF these
orphans was injured in the fire.

a Villain. because Hardee Kirkland nlaved

a villain, because Hardee kirkland played
the part. Into this home Senator Rivers
comes, and In his brusque, honest way Of
fers to push the claim of Silas Denman.
Bradford has a nice bit in the part of the
ola claimant. Senator Rivers discovers the
game OF the Austrian count. He sees
that the count Is trining with Mabel and de-
termines to look after him.
The second act, in the home of Alexander
Armstrong, secretary Of state, shows Mrs.
Armstrong, a weak, foolish woman. infat-
uated with the Austrian count, and they
plan TO elope. Senator Rivers thus has
more trouble on his hands. This he does
oW, in the person of Miss Shannon. The
friends OF the Grand's leading lady appeared
70 like her quite as well laughing as crying,
both of which she does quite artistically.
Little MISS Berg appears in the second act
as Josie Armstrong, daughter of the secre-
tary OF state, In love with Richard Vance,
private secretary to Senator Rivers. Mr..
at once became favorites with every young
person in the audience.
During the third act Senator Rivers is
triumphant in getting the Denman claim
through Congress. The fourth act shows
me senator's apartments. He wins Mabel
Deniman and secures his reward. There is
an interesting scene between the widow
Hilary and Lieut.. Schuyler, a slow lover,
played by Mr.. Patton with much amuse-
ment for the audience. The senator tri-
umphs nicely over the villainous count, and
the close is very pretty. Miss Daily plays
the part OF Mabel Denman and Miss Field
is the wife of the secretary of state. Mr..
Sheldon's Baron Ling Ching. secretary Of
the Chinese legatlon, was not exactly a
great hit. The entire play was an excellent
hrst performance and promises to become
popular.

Emnire-snm Devere.

The company Sam Devere has at the En-
pire this week is better than any he has
formerly brought here. Devere himself
presents the usual budget" of songs and
sayings all of them new, and in his we'll
known way. Mildred Howard De Grey, the
barefoot passion dancer" seems to have
acquired more grace than she exhibited
here last season. Stuart Barnes and Mabel
Sisson present a mixed sketch, The The
atrical Agent" with a finish and brightness
away beyond the average. Another distinct
hit yesterday afternoon was the "Bowery"
act Of Lawrence and Harrington, with a
very funny cake walk of the Gents Social
Dancing Club" style that brought uproari-
Gus applause. Other features We're the
Flood Brothers., who open the perform
ance with an acrobatic comedy act,
with some novelties; Walter j. Tai
bot, the California singer, a sweet
singer of sentimental ongs; the Fran
chonetti Sisters. a trio of highly, grace
full dancers of the contortion school, and a
cinematographic Sharkey-McCoy night. The
management does not claim this to be an
actual photograph of the fight, but two
'scienced" boxers appeared before the ma
chine and gave the affair practically in FAC
smile for ten rounds The Peep o Day
Club" is the same in It's main features. 1t
is in this farce that Mildred Howard De
Grey appears, barefooted to the garter line.
The compan will remain all week, giving
two performances daily.

CUBAN SOLDIERS AWED
PROVOST MARSHAL n. n. HARRISON
THREATENED TO SHOOT.
WINS i'm Charge of Fifty Sugar PiIfer-
ers, and 500 of Their Friends Act
ed in a Menncing hammer.

HAVANA, Feb. 27.-The owners of the
Toledo plantation, near Marianao, COM
planned to General Fitzhugh Lee recently
that Cuban soldiers carried away tons OF
sugar cane every day for the purpose of
eating it. Major Russell b. Harrison, the
provost marshal, with a guard of twenty
five men, went to the plantation yesterday,
caught fifty Cubans and disarmed them. A
number of others escaped. AS the proH1st
guard was marching back about 800 Cuban
soldiers came running over the hill, brand
iShing their rifles. Major Harrison be-
lieved that a rescue was intended, and he
aligned his men and ordered them to load
their rifles. He then directed a Spanish-
talking soldier to tell the Cubans that they
must not come any nearer else he would
shoot. Followed by a crowd of Cubans,
Major Harrison and the prisoners marched
to the headquarters of General Mayi Rod
riguez, a Cuban commander, TO whom the
prisoners We're transferred, the major taxi
ing a receipt for them. The American mill
tary authorities treat the Cuban soldiers
as though they belonged to a foreign army,
not Furnishing them in the civil courts, but
committing them to the justice Of their
own commanders
The military authorities have issued 1000
Iations to the Cuban troops who entered
Havana with General Gomez. These troops
will be given an open-air banquet next Sun
day by the city of Havana.
General Gomez tonight attended a ball
given by the Antillano Club, a Cuban or
ganization.
Thomas Dillon, of Company G, Second
illinois Regiment. was showing his revolver
to a Cuban at Quemados yesterday. He
thought il was unloaded, but the Cuban
snapped the trigger and shot Dillon through
the shoulder. He is not fatally wounded.
Colonel Durbin, of the One-hundred-and-
sixty-irst Indiana Regiment, has sent a
protest to the War Department against
practice marches, alleging that they are
hurtful to the health of the men. A bat
talon of the Second South Carolina Regi-
ment, which marched last week, has as
many sick men on the list as the two other
battalions which did not march. The sick
ness in the battalion is attributed to the
practice march.
1t is said that the Second Illinois Regi-
ment may be ordered to the Isle of Pines.
