The NationnI-.Tom Pinch,

When Charles Dickens wrote Martin
ChuZzlewit" he devoted not "a word In its
preface to Tom Pinch, the self-sacrihcing
character around whom the most attrac-
tive portion of his famous novel was con-
structed, but Mr.. Il. S. Willard, in his
drama of that name. entertained a large
and appreciatiVe audience at the National
Theatre last evening.
The dramatiZaticn of Martin ChuZzle-
wit was in many respects rema rkuble.
The author of the play modestly de
SCribed Il on the programme as construct
ed of incidents from the work of the cele-
brated English author, but it WASH most
satisfactory portrayal of the principal
characters and faithfully followed the
thread of the story.
Mr.. Willard in the title role was ali
that could be desired. He presented the
ideal of Dickens conception Of the gentle,
lOvable and self-Sacrihcing man about
whom the others in the story reVolVed like
the suokes in "A wheel Mr. Willard was
frequently applauded by a large and intel
ligent audience, which was entertained by
a play entirely devoid of action, but SO
artistic in its every feature that il was
pleasing and satisfying throughout.
one of the remarkable things about last
night $ performance was the perfect bal

ing taking fire in the house occupied
by Nathan Agiu, ON west Coryell ST.,
adjoining Wert's lumber yard. Two
of Mr.. Agin's children occupied bed

stand along side the bed. BY some
means the lamp was upset, and the
bedding took fire. One of the boys
ran to his mother and told her, and
she gave the alarm. Mr.. Agin broke
out window and threw the burning
bed ont of the window, burning him
self pretty severely ON the arms in so
doing, The use of chemical fire

fire, and little damage was done other
than that to the contents of the room.
The entire fire department was on
hand. but fortunately their services
were not required.
