A new aspirant for the heavyweight
honors of the pugilistic arena of the
United states has arrived on the scene,
having landed in New York Tuesday.
His name is Hassan Ali. and by birth
he IS an Arabian. If size and bulk
alone would win. it is probable that
Mr.. Ali would be i'm class all by HIM
self.
He is in all likelihood the tallest man
in the world, standing eight feet. He
weighs 275 pounds and is splendidly
proportionad. His hands are twelve
inches long.
This grand specimen of humanity
would like to arrange a go with Cham
pion Jim Jeffries and although he ad-
mits that the Californian can probably
hit harder blow. still he relies OH
his great height and wonderful reach
to keep the present premier pugilist
from coming within striking distance.

Modjeska Coming, Choose Your Play

Those who contemplate attending
the theatre on the forthcoming en-
gaGement of Madame Modjeska, and
ther are very few regular playgoers
who do not, will have a brilliant list
of plays from which to make their
selection. The engagement is for only
one performance and it rests with the
public which play is to be given.
There are three tragedies, viz.
Macbeth" MARY stuart" and "Maric
Antoinette," an entirely new historical
play by Clinton stuart. In addition
to which there are two comedies name
ly Shakespeare's Much Ado About
Nothing and Scribe's famous French
classic, the Ladies' Battle" Intend .
ing patrons would do we'll to advise
the opera house management by letter
as to the play they prefer and by
taking the majority vote when the
advance agent arrives, it will be pos
sible to make the event an popular
as it will assuredly be artistic.

Not an Orator.

An amusing story is told about the late
General Wauchope as soldier and a
politician. When In command of the
Black Watch, the famous Highland regi-
ment, he was said to have attempted TO
address the men after parade at Maryhill
barracks, Glasgow. From the demeanor
of the colonel. the regiment anticipated
an eloquent address. but it is stated that
the genial Andrew only got the length Of;
Men of the gallant Forty-second."
when his tongue seemed to cleave to the
roof of his mouth.
Thrice did he make the attempt, and
thrice did he fail to make progress. until,
exasperated with himself, he suddenly
exclaimed to the astonishment of the reg
iment: "Men of the gallant Forty-second,
right -about wheel!'

THEATRICAL.
"Pudd'nhead wilson"

Frank Mayo's fine dramatization Of
Mark Twain's quaint story. "Pudd'n-
head Wilson," was seen at the I.yceum
last night by a large audience. 1t is a
play that does not lose its popularity,
and was followed last night with quite
as much interest as on it's first pro-
duction in this city.
Edwin Mayo, in the role created by
his distinguished father, improves with
each succeeding appearance here. His
work last night was faithful and artis-
tic, and he had the assistance of an
excellent company.

A Complete Production.

A cardinal point in the coming fare
we'll production of Lewis Morrison's S
Faust is it's magnificent scenic COM
pleteness. Never in the history of this
famous play has it been presented
here in as perfectly uniform a manner
as now. From the time the curtain
rises upon the dark sepulchral cell Of
DR.. Faustus until it falls upon the
beautiful tableauX of the Apotheosis
it is series of elaborate spectacular
transformations ranging from eccles-
iastical solemnity to dabolical wierd-
ness.
Special attention has been given to
the electrical and mechanical features.
The company is of exceptional merit
and the musical features are especially
meritoriOus. 1t will be presented at
the Lyceum Monday night.

Special Correspondence of The Tribune.
Washington, ID. C., Feb. 2.--Bryan
came here from New York to attend
the Gridiron dinner. He was brmful
and running over with the "signih-
cantly cordial reception" he got in
New York. With school boy elation
he tells how the claw-hammer Demo-
Gratis ovated him and made him feel
perfectly at home among the Four
Hundred. He talks rapturously OF hid
ing his neither limbs under Belmont's
mahogany. and speaks feelngly of the
aristocratic feed that caused him to
almost forget the new dispensation
which i'll tolerates any higher form of
wealth than soup house prosperity and
empty dinner pals. He comes back
hilariously. exuberantly optimistic. He
is an avowed opportunist. Imperial
ism is to be the Democratic shibboleth
in the eastern states. Sixteen to one
is to be the rallying cry in the Pop
uiistic West and South, and the labor
ing man is to be harrangued with the
burning story that capital has de-
prived him of his share lin the pros
perity that has blessed the land.
Bryan's closest friends here were con-
tident that his New York visit would
he productive of just this result.
Bryan has not abandoned the silver
agitation by any means in this ar
rangement for it is practically elimin-
ated for the present. they say, by the
Republican currency bill which will
soon become a law. A revival of the
silver question as n political issue is
dependent wholly upon the repeal of
the enactment which this congress
will make. That is way in the future.
TOO far ahead to make its contempla-
ton now of any use in practical poll
tics. SO the gold Democrats are
crowding around the mourners bench,
Mr. Bryan says. and he holds out to
them the hope that while the lamp OF
Rryanism is aglow in the land the
vilest backslider may return. He shook
hands with German across the Grid
iron table pretty much in this spirit,
so one of the dickey birds says. What
happens at a Gridiron roast is never
revealed. of course. but it just leaks
out somehow. Bryan is Il favOrite with
newspaper people. He saves them lots
of trouble by writing out his own
thoughts in copyplate hand. and h,

Works! 1t is easy to picture him In
front of the bulletine board on cleo
ton night: Bryan sweeps New York,
Pennsylvania and Ohio! Hanna con-
cedes the election!" That is Just
what he is expecting, and. in his own
hallucinated estimation he is as good
as elected now! Again it is the old
story of Democratic victory before the
battle has been fought. But there Is
another story about Bryan's Pennsyl-
vania visitation. He went to Harris
burg to see for himself that 1.-The Quay

"A Stranger in Strange Land" the
play that has crowded the Manhattan
theater, New York, for many weeks,

The play is termed an Anglo-American
farce, probably because the scene is
laid in England, whereas several of
the characters are of American origin.
In fact. the principal role is very
much American. being a noble red
man who finds his way into England
as the hireling of patent medicine

NEGROES DID NOT GET AWAY.
About 500 of Them CongreGnted at
the Depot in Athens.

Athens. Ga, March IA crowd of
about 500 negroes assembled about the
seaboard Air Line depot here to-day for
the purpose of emigrating 10 the Mississlp-
pi Valley.
1t had been reported that they were to
be given free transportation, but the rail-
road officials here were instructed TO al
low none on the trains who had not paid
the regular fare TO Atlanta.
When the $40 train came along this
morning there was a scene of wild con-
fusion The negroes made rush for the
coaches and the police had a hard time
getting and keeping them off. In the me-
lee Policeman Alex Sage was badly bruis-
ed up. The same scene was repeated on
the arrival ana departure of other trains.
Mr. James M Smith, who runs the larg-
est farm In Georgia, was here and had
sixteen of the negroes arrested. They were
under contract with him. Other farmers
took similar action with hands under con-
tract with them.
Many of these negroes have sold or given
away all their possession in order to get
away, and are confident that they will be
taken off. Tonight the negroes are still
at the depot and the authorities are at n
loss to know what to do with them.

SUNK by UNKNOWN STEAMER.
All But Three of the Cuvier's Crew
Probably Perished.

London, March lit is now learned that
the British steamship Cuvier, commanded
by Capt. Quinton, which was reported
Friday last sunk by an unknown steamer,
was run down in the Straits of Dover the
morning of the 9Th by a steamer whose
identity is not known.
The three survivors, who were landed at
Calais, France, shortly after the disaster,
say a great hole was torn in the Cuvier,
sinking her in less than five minutes They
further state that the thirty men compris-
ing the crew were below al the time of the
collision and were unable to reach the
decks and man the boats, so quickly did
the rammed vessel go down, and that the
colliding vessel paid no heed to the cries
for assistance shouted to those on board,
and steamed away.
The captain and third mate were seen
to jump from the bridge as their vessel
went down. Two Of the survivors clung
to a capsized boat until picked up by the
Windsor and taken to Calais. II is believ
ed all the other members of the crew of
the CuvierJare drowned
