jumps from the Brooklyn bridge to save
a woman's life. 1t is through Brodie
that the hero's innocence is proven,
the villains guilt established and all
ends happily for the we'll deserving.
The finest scenery was made for this
production 1t was designed and
painted by John H, Young of the
broadway Theatre. Some of it is Won
derful, aside from the mere excellence
of the painting. Such is the Brooklyn
bridge scene; the spectator seems to
see no less than 500 feet of the north
ern driveway and the huge towers and
intricate cable net work are fully
shown. No less actual in appearance is
the scene where the fire occurs, that Of
the East river pier. with its warehouse,
watch house, shipping and heavy mer-
chandise. A scene very different from
any other interior ever shown on the
stage is that representing Steve
Brodie's saloon. The inside walls of
the place are almost entirely covered
with small pictures, and the effect is
quite odd. The outside view of the
saloon and the next door places win be
recognized instantly by any one who
has ever trayersed the Bowery, as will
also the view of Chatham square at the
point where the BOwery begins.
That no suitable element might be
missing in "On the Bowery," a num-
Der Of excellent specialties have been

things on the stage at this time.

UNDER THE RED ROBE.

Among the historical romances for
winch public appetite clamors at pres
ent there is none more popular nor a
better specimen of its class than Ed
ward Roses decentralization of Wey-
mans Under the Red Robe" Its hero
Is handsomer than Cyrano and more
magnetic than D'Artagnan. while pos
sessing all the fire and dash of both
these Worthies. That stellar figure Of
modern history, Cardinal Richelieu
perVades its scenes in as striking q
manner as he does in Bulwer's drama
and the political conditions and atmos-
phere Of the time of the thirteenth
Louis are admirably reproduced.
Under the Red Robe has a strong
love interest. an enthralling plot, and
inspiring, animated dialogue Its pro-
ductton here last year was one of the
hits Of the season, and though all the
players have been changed, the same
rich settings, costumes and fidelity to
detail will be preserved. William Nor
ris is the new Gil de Berault. and
Renee de CoCheforet is now played by
Miss Frances Guant. Both these artists
are credited with a success at least
equal to that of their predecessors,
William FaVersham and Viola Allen

tress of great beauty and acknowl-

CON THE BOWERY."

That Thomas H., Davis and William
r. Keogh's elaborate scenic production
Of "On the Bowery," in which Steve
Brodie is central figure, is to be pre-
scented shortly in this city, will be
welcome news to all classes Of theatre
goers. The interest in the comic and
sensational incidents Of this play never
flags and its success has been little
short of amazing. Undoubtedly the
profuse comedy it contains has had
much to do with securing lasting popu-
lar favor But the comedy scenes and
characters make up but a part Of this
inspiring play. 1t tells a melodramatic
story as exciting as may be found in a
New York sensational drama on tho
contemporary stage
This story is marked by situations
and climaXes Of the most thrilling
nature. Brodie takes part in both the
comic aud sensational scenes Of the
play. He arouses the most enthusiasm
when he protects the hero from the
villain who has tracked him TO Brodie'
saloon, and when no subsequently

Company M Now Takes a Turn
at designations and Bad
Feeling.

The friends of Second Lieutenant Harry
L.. Barck, of Company K, Fourth Regi-

him to remain in the company. His
resignation was sent to Colonel Smith
about a week ago, and yesterday it was
forwarded to Trenton by Adjutant Ben
jamin NJ. Gerardin, by order Of the
Colonel.
Lieutenant Barck relinquished his posi-
ton because of a controversy that arose
over the election of First Lieutenant
James Cornell. Barck was under the inn
preston that he was entitled to the place.
Captain Frederick Steiglelter was also
ON the point of r~esigning, but he was pre-
vailed upon to stay. Colonel Smith as
sured him that his services were needed
and that in remaining al the head OF the
ompany a possible disruption would be

that business engagements are response

The resignation will be forwarded to

in the various companies.
