..The Minister Extraordinary

Rehearsals OF Barclay Walkers opera
1.-The Minister Extraordinary began yes
terday. The principals are arriving. Miss
Sylvester Cornish arrived yesterday from
New Orleans. where she has just closed a
very successful summer engagement with
the Olympia Opera Company. Miss Cornish

production OF THE Minister Extraordi-
nary" Her first success was in 1856, when
she was "a member OF John Stetson's COM
pany, playing Katisha in The Mikado."
Since then she has been identified with
John G. Duf's productions of Gilbert and
Sullivan's operas. For two years and a half
she was with De Wolf Hopper's forces,
later with Pauline Hall, Thomas -. Sea-
brooke and others. Miss Cornish spent a
portion of the afternoon with Barclay
Walker and Mr.. John l.. Fancher, the
musical director, and after having listened
10 the music and read the libretto she said.
with much enthusiasm, that she thought
the opera would be a great success; that
the music is bright and catchy and the
story very interesting. MIR. Walker has
revised THE Minister Extraordinary"
since II was produced d year ago. II will
open at the Grand Opera House Sept. 8.
Miss Beatrice Goldie. prima donna. and
Miss Clifford will arrive tomorrow. Harry
Brown is now here. Mr.. Kirkland Calhoun,

SCALPERS IN HARD LINES
THE RAILROAD COMPANIES ARE
PROSECUTING VIGOROUS WAR.
The e. & O. and It's Photographers Ad
just Their Grievances-GeneraI
and Personal Mention.

The war against ticket s~calpers which Is
and Pennsylvania is extending to South
ern roads. At Atlanta which has been
a hotbed of ticket scalpers, a war OF ex-
termination is being waged, and that por~
ton of the travelling public which patron
ICES s~calpers has become alarmed. Pas
senger conductors have instructions to
watch closely and report at once any ir-
regularity in a ticke offered. and to re-
fuse any concerning which there is the
least suspicion. One Southern judge has
taken the position. it is said, that pur-
chasers of scalped tickets stand in the
position of receiving stolen goods. Com
menting on cases last week in Philadel-
phia, the Inquirer of that city said: 1T
is more than likely the four young men
who were yesterday convicted in this city
of selling railroad tickets in violation of
the statute which makes such sale un-
lawful were unplessantly surprised at the
serious view taken by the court of the Of
Tense of which they had been found guilty.
Thanks to the friendly ~interposition of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company, which
was not animated by any vindictive feeling
in the matter, but simply desired to pro-
tect the interests Of the public, which
the scalping business antagonizes, the
maximum penalty was not imposed, but
the offenders were sentenced to pay a
fine of $500 each and TO stand committed
until the money was forthcoming, and
it may be imagined that it will be a
long time before they engage in the ticket
scalping business again."

NJ. Z. ingalls,, president of the Big Four,
takes great pride in the handsome trains
run over all parts of the Big -Four sys-
tenn, and never objects TO shop expenses
necessary to keep the locomotive and cars
at high standard, says one Of the officials.
In commenting on the Big Four equipment
the Cleveland Leader says: The Big Four,
always famous for it's splendid motive
power n passenger equipment, is still
making improvements. The policy of this
company is to spare no expense i'm provid-
ing the very best that can be obtained.
Their trains are the finest in appearance
and their motive power attracts the atten-
ton and excites the admiration of observ-
ant people everywhere the trains run.
The compan is now about to have con-
structed some immense fast express en-
gines of the ten-wheel type, which will be
capable of hauling the heavy trains on the
fastest schedules. The big eight-wheel
Schenectady machines now i'm use on the
road are wonders, but Ii is the desire of
the motive power officials to have engines
with greater tractive power which can haul
heavier trains. General Passenger Agent

Through his enterprise and progressive
spirit, the Big Four road has advanced
rapidly in popularity during the past two
years. He is one of the broad-minde pas
senger men who nave grown up in the
business, and knows all the ms and outs
and other details of their profession"
