HOpkfns's TransOceanfcs at Park.
The Hopkins Transoceanic Star Speciality
Company. under the management of Rob-
ert Fulgora, opened weeks engagement
at the Park Theater yesterday. with the
house comfortably filled. The entertain
ment provided is, for the most part. ex-
cellent. The first act on the programme,
contributed by the Morello troupe, is un-
usually clever and consists of acrobatic
feats. slack wire walking and couple of
dogs who turn somersaults and punch the
bag. The woman who walks on the loose
wire combines good looks with ability TO
entertain. About all that Miss Kenwick
who follows the Morello troupe. does is to
display astonishing inability to sing "coon"
songs and a very fine form. The ven-
triloquial act, furnished by Mr.. A. o. Dun
the best ever seen here. The crispness and
freshness of the dialogue put into the
mouths Of the figures is striking. There
mere some t.rf funny sn things about
Bouman and Rose Adele, but
they were buried in a mass Of tire
some twaddle that made them difficult 10
discover. The first turn after the inter-
mission was the great bird act furnished
by Mile. Marzella and her host of feathered
assistants. Many of the feats accom-
plished by the winged performers were re-
markable and the apparatus used was of
the kind that lends spectacular effect.
Fake and Semon exploited the latest &C.
centricities in musical instruments and in
cidentally INDUCED in some witty dialogue.
Wills of the team Of Wills and Loretto,
is well-known here and has something
good to offer in the way of new jokes and
songs. He made big hit with his parody
on Because 1 Love YOU and one of those
songs in which the name o. almost every
town on the map Of the world is men,
toned. The programme was pleasantly
concluded by the three Guitanos, whose
speciality includes a little comedy with a
dash of the acrobatic seasoned with panto-
mime, all very entertaining.
Yesterdays audiences indicate that the
Hopkins Company will receive liberal pat
ronage the rest of the week.

JhFFERSONVILLE. Ind, Feb. 26.-The
Hon. Joseph H. Shea, of Scott county, took
the Democratic leaders by surprise to-day
by announcing his candidacy for Congress
in the Third district. This is believed to be
part of a plan to forestall the aspirations
of the Hon. George H. Weight, two years
hence.
Four years ago Weight and Shea con-
tested for the joint senatorshp. Shea was
nominated and the friends of Weight held
a trump" convention and nominated their
favorite Weight withdrew soon after, but
much bitterness was engendered, and new
er died out. Certainly the candidacy of
Shea will be bitterly opposed by Voight and
his friends. but the real fight is not ex-
pected before 1902.
