At the white Horse Tavern.

Away from, and wholly unlike any
comedy that has been seen on the stage
within the decade is what several crit
les have said about AT the White
Horse Tavern which is announced as
the attraction at the Opera House We'd
nesday. October 3rd. 1t has unique
title, and one, perhaps, which on first
thought may be misleading, but the
pretty three act play, from all accounts,
turns out to be a jewel. notwlth-
standing the oddness of its name. II
simply means a cosy mountain inn,
away up in the Alps OF the Austrian
Tyrol, with a large sign of white
horse directing the tourist to its hos
pitable door. Every season this idyl-
lie retreat is the Mecca of tourists
from the larger cities, and the charm
ing hostess receives them with a
warmth of welcome peculiar to her ma
tive mountains. Here the numerous
guests and the simple mountain folk
with their striking attire move before
the audience in the most natural and
yet humorous fashion. AT the White
Horse Tavern" was the greatest come
dy success of last season when it was
presented in many of the larger cities
and received with an enthusiasm given
few plays.

Huntley-Jack.on Company.

Standing room was at premium
at the Grand last night, the occasion
being the opening performance OF the
Huntley-Jackson Stock Company's en-
gagement of solid week. For Lib
erty or Love" is a delightful admix-
ture of patriotic sentiment and heart
interest-a war drama, in which the
military feature is not made secondary
to the love story. 1t was splendidly
staged, and most capably cast. The
specialties are far above the average
The general merit of the production

Next Friday evening an event of un-
usual interest occurs at the Opera House
in the presentation of William Gill
lette's most successful comedy. BE
cause She Loved Him So" This piece
is said to have created a veritabIe
laughing furore in New York City.
Astounding in the mirth provoking sit
uations and quaint and graceful wit al
ways conspicuous In Mr. Gillefte's dra-
matte compositions, while the story of
the play in itself is comicaI enough.
The principal personages in the new
piece are a young woman who is so
very fond of her husband as to drive
him nearly to distraction with her
jealous suspicious; the husband whom
Mr.. Gillette represents, as the most
blameless and amiable of men and the
young woman's two old parents, who
have been billing and cooling for thirty
odd years and havA nsver exchanged !

Miss kfdder.


The audience at the Opera House
last evening was not at all commensu-
rate in size with the merit of the pro-
duction of miss Kidder," in which
the charming coincidence, Flo Irwin
sustained the title role. 1t is musical
farce comedy, with an abundance OF
witty dialogue and very amusing
scenes. Miss Irwin had abundant OPP
portunities for action as we'll as the
display of her musical abilities Her
songs, ali of which possess the merit
of comparative freshness, were exceed
ingly well received. II the audience
was not large, it was insistent in the
matter of encores, which may be fairly
regarded as evidence of genuine appre-
citation The cast is very large, and
embraces several well known coined
ians and vocalists. miss kidder" will
be presented again this evening, and
deserves a large house.

The Watch on the Rhine.
No prettier, daintier comedy could
hardly be placed upon the stage than
THE Watch on the Rhine" in which
Chas. H. Yale and Sidney R. Ellis are
starring AL. H. Wilson, the rising young
German dialect comedian, who plays
an engagement here Saturday, natl
nee and night. The scenes are laid
along the banks of the River Rhine
in Germany, there being four acts with
a different set for each one, each is
said to be more beautiful than the
one preceding, and each deplicting the
characteristics of German country life
most wildly realistically. Of course
the old old story of love and hate forms
the theme, but the frailty of human
passions are so exquisitely and delicate
ly portrayed that loving hearts, through
the medium of childhood s. tender mem
cries and songs, are at last happily
reunited. The cast supporting Mr..
Wilson embodies the names Of such
well known players as Mark Price,
Fanny Bloodgood Alfred II. Hastings,
Eva Byron, Even Hulfish and Ida
Hamilton.

Mrs. FisIze's Tour.
The psychologist genesis of many a
scene in fiction no doubt would reveal
something interesting as the scene it
self If known. In Mrs. Fishes play,
Becky Sharp, the second act reflects
much that was superficial of the Ma
opeleonic period, but it also shows, in
it's climax, the terror of Napoleon that
prevailed at the time. The scene Of
alarm at the ball at Brussels is broken
up by the sound of cannon, briefly de-
scribed in Vanity Fair" and elabor-
ately pictured in Mrs. Fishes play,
may have developed in Thackery' S
brain from one of his very youthful
experiences When l first saw Eng
land said Thackery in one of his
lectures, ''she was in mourning for
young Princess Charlotte, the hope of
the Empire. l came from India as a

Creston Clarke Coming.

The coming of Creston Clarke to the
Opera House on Monday night is look
ed forward to by theatre-goers with
great amount of pleasure. Mr.. Clarke
is we'll remembered by the people o.
this community for he has played here
successfully several times. Miss Prince
is Mr.. Clarke's leading lady, and is an
actress who received her early train
ing in the school of August Daily
Hamlet will be produced in an elabor'
ate manner, and the great success Mr.
Clarke has achieved in playing this
famous role guarantees a delightful
evening to the patrons of the higher
drama in Wheeling. Those who re-
member Edwin Booth in this his IA
vorite role, do not hesitate to say
that his nephew, Creston Clarke, is
sure to repeat the formers success.

At the regular session of the Board of
County Commissioners yesterday morn
ing the old question of the Jail repair
bill was revived and the proceedings
were of lively nature. A request for
a platform for the coming German Day
festivities was granted and other bust
ness of routine nature was transacted.
Just before President H. P. McGregor
called the meeting to order Capt. Albert
Franzheim inquired of the board as to
the status of the right of way over the
county infirmary farm for the proposed
P, c. & w. railway, and it consequently
developed that the request was in the
hand of the county engineer.
The minutes of the last session were
read by Clerk T. C. Moffat and duly
adopted. A report of the meeting held
September Sth, when the board ordered
the construction of a stone wall on
Caldwell's run, was also read and fav-
orai5ly received. The record of the SEES
sion of September 18th, on which occa-
sion the board conferred with the repre-
sentatives of the p, G. & w. railway,
was then read and approved.
The reports of the committee ex-
Dandit11rac werp uayt given as follows.

have qualified the advice which he gave.
That he must have qualified it is evident.
Nature imposes one primary duty upon
man. He must be self sustaining, bear
ing by his own efforts or out of his own
resources the cost of his food, clothing
and shelter. Otherwise he must be a
burden upon others or upon the COM
munity. Next he has certain natural
obligations to those beings associated
with him in life, such as his immediate
family, other relatives, or friends to
whom he may be under obligations; and
these obligations can only be met by labor
or it's equivalents. This primary duty
of bearing the burdens of ones own ex-
istence and of ones relationships, is fun
damental Many men fail in it, after
having used their best endeavors; and
such may retain both dignity and intlu
ence. But no one who has not done his
best to perform this fundamental duty,
can regard his life with satisfaction, con-
template himself with consciousness of
dignity, or expect great influence among
his fellow-men. 1t is ertain that politics
does not furnish the income necessary to
meet these obligations throughout life
time. There is no calling more precari-
Gus, even where the politician pursues
his calling with the sole aim of gain, or
is, in the slang expression tout for the
stuff. " Or course President Tucker would
advise no young man to make politics
his business in that way His ideal is
the politician who is devoted to right
principles and gives his life to the labor
of advancing them. But such a man
must often deliver himself over to tenn
porary defeat, or even obloquy. Abraham
Lincoln's early career illustrated this
forcibIy. Had he been in politics for a
livelihood he must have wobbled all
around the slavery question or betaken
himself to the care Of his relatives or the
community. Mr.. Lincoln was a success
full lawyer, ana with the supplies &C
cumulated in that business, he was Table
to sustain himself in a. glorious political
career of virtue and independence. Most
Of the great names in American history
are those of men who have given service
in politics while making their living in
other walks of life. George Washington,
who of all Americans rendered the most
substantial public service during his life,
was a man of great private fortune; and
it is probable that without that fortune
he could not or would not have rendered
the service. TO young men of private
fortune President fuckers advice in its
unqualified form is admirable They
may give their lives to the work without
the constant recurrence OF the almost ir-
resistible temptation involved in choos-
ing between honor and bread.

National Convention should approve the
anti-imperialist platform, which virtually
denounced the Republicans for annexing
Hawaii But it ought to be apparent
that the Hawaiians, having worked the
Republican party for annexation, are now
preparing to work either party for the
admission of their little territory as a
rotten borough State. Two Senators and
power in Congress are what they are
working for now, and they are not nice

The Democrats are figuring rather early
on contrO@ing the House of Representa-
tiyes in Che next Congress. When Con-
gress adjourned the Republican majority
in the House was 16. The total member
ship is 357 divided at present as follows /:
Republicans 1876, Democrats 161, all 9th
ers eight, vacancies three. The Republi-
cans thus have majority of Is as the
House is constituted. The Democrats
have ascertained that in twelve districts
the present Republican incumbents were
elected by majorities Of less than one thou
sand votes each. Enough change is
counted on to turn these districts Demo-
cratic. On the other hand, there are
thirteen Democrats in the House whose
districts are bslow the one thousand safe
ty mark and if the tide should happen to
be the other way, the Republican
strength in the HOUSE would be in
creased. It is extremely probable that
the House will go as the Presidency goes.
That has been the rule in recent years.
and is likely to be the rule this year.
