The dramatic aucccess.s "The
Black Hand" comes to Grand Opera
House tonight.
"The Black Hand" Is q powerful
play, ski!lfully written, and from the
commencement until the final cur
tain. there is a strong portrayal OF
human emotions. The characters
are all natural, men and women
such as we have met and known, in
fact this is one OF the chief charms
OF the performance and makes the
audience feel it TO be real and not
acting
The play is interlarded with many
humorous 81 tuati1ns and exciting
episodes and is ranked as one Of tine
best dramatic efforts of the present
day. 1t is seldom, indeed, that any
performance or play is given the
universal high praise which has been
accorded "The Black Hand and it
cannot but meet apprecialive en-
enlargement at the hand Of our

THE ETERNAL CITY.

Miss Allen is to present 1.-The
Eternal City" in this city on Satur-
day night at the Grand Opera

When Lord Chesterfield wrote to
his son on July IS, 1879, from Tun-
bridge Wells, regarding irony, he
must have had, with prophetic Wis
ion. the form of Hall Game, the
Manx novelist and dramatist in
mind. No novelist, except possibly
the author of the Old SIeuth DetGC-
tive Stories. has been SO virulently
decried as Hall Game. The fact
that the author Of The Eternal
City," which he has dramatized for
Miss Viola Allen to be seen hore
shortly, has been ironically refer
ed to by rival British authors as
resembling Shakespeare in moro
ways than one" recalls Chester
fields advice to his son: praise,
when it is not deserved, is the Sc
vcrest satire and abuse. This is a
figure Of speech called irony; which
is saying directly tho contrary Of

Thompson, medical missionary at the
Melsetter district station of the Amer
lean Board of Foreign Missions. The
first brick house in Gazaland was built
at this station within the last decade.
The mission lands, consisting of $4,000
acres, high, fertile and picturesque,
were given to DR.. Thompson by Cecil
Rhodes. That the property produces
good corn is self-evident proposition
in this photograph, where long row
of ears are hung out for curing.
DIR. and Mrs. Thompson recently WIS.,
tied this country, bringing many curios
with them and a number of photo
graphs showing their African life.
Among the latter few interested their
friends here so much as this, which
shows how Mrs. Thompson, most cul-
tured, gentle and refined lady, accus-
toned to all soft graces of life and
up to date ways of journeying in this
country, goes calling in state on her
African neighbors.-N. Y. Herald.
