Morrison's Faust /.

Lewis Morrison's version of
Faust with a supporting com
pany chosen from the best of
what is known as the legitimate
school, and an entirely new seen
ic and electrical production will
be the attraction at the opera
house tonight. The protechnical
and electrical effects Of the IA !.
nous Brocken scene and the
picture of shoel add much TO the
impressiveness Of MOrrison's
Faust. Special interest will be
manifested in the new lyric and
choral prologue, which reveals
Satan pleading with the arch
angel surrounded by his host.
The chanting of an invisible
choir. the succession of cloud ef-
fects dispensing, and the final
revelation OF the gates Of Elysium
are pleasing to the eye and ear
alike, while Satan's descent to
earth is preceded by q strongly
dramatic scene. The entire pro
ducti0n is without exception the
finest ever given Faust ID this
country.

The Storm Yesterday Evening.

The gentle shower between two anG
three O'clock yesterday afternoon was
followed by one more prolonged and
copious about 4:30 o. clock which was ac-
companied by considerable thunder and
lightning. The electric flashes were
very vivid and the crashes of thunder at
times appalling. While the storm was rag
ing the drug store of Dienelt Il Walker,
713 King street, was struck twice by
lightning. The first bolt struck the fire
wall and knocked some bricks down and
the second struck the front door, setting
it on fire. The flames were extingulsh-
ed before any material damage was done.
A truck at the Southern Railway depot
was also struck by lightning and the
electric fluid played around the iron
work there to the alarm of many. The
electric railway suffered considerably by
the lightning deranging the working OF
the machinery of the cars and grounding
wires. and considerable delay was ex-
perienced in the running OF trains. The
lightning struck the chimney OF the
residence of Mr. +. j. Power at the water
works in West End, damaging the Chin
new and tearing some shingles from the
roof The smoke stack of the Rosslyn
Packing Company in the county was
blown down during the prevalence OF the
storm. The country south of the city
suffered considerably. Lightning struck
the residence of Mr. A. Lewis Lukens,
in the WoOdIawn neighbOrhood, splitting
the chimney about five feet. 1t t1en left
the chimney and passed to the rain
spout and ran into the ground. The
lightning also knocked a joint OF pipe
out Of the kitchen stove and passed
around the corner of the house and split
two posts of the porch which MIS-;
Lukens and her little son had vacated
about half minute before. The house oil
of Hamilton Gray, colored, at Gum
Springs, was also struck by light
ming and damaged and COW be-
longing to Arthur Jasper, colored, was

Throwing at Cars.

Miss Emma C. Spindle, niece OF
Mrs. John p. Robinson, and Mrs. VIII
liam Ballard were the victims OF piece
of wanton righteousness last night.
They were passengers on the electric
train that left Washington at $3.50
o'clock, and when between Braddock
Heights and Spring Park, an empty
whisky flask was thrown through one Of
the car windows and the shattering glass
severely cut Miss Spindle about the ear
and face and Mrs Ballard on the arm.
Considerable excitement was Occasioned
among the passengers and many profiers
of aid were made. The train crew were
ignorant of the accident until some MN
utes later and therefore did not stop the
train until PAYNE street was reached.
The ladies We're able TO go to their
homes without assistance, but 1t was
found necessary to take a stitch III tle
ear of Miss Spindle to check the bleed
ing. Upon the arrival ofthe train here
the police department was notified and
Sergeant Goods, accompanied by Police
men Sherwood, Allen, Griffin and TIGER
boarded the train which left here at 1918
O'Clock and got of at Braddock Heights
and set out in search Of the culprit.
They were unsuccessful, however, and
later returned 10 this city. The railway
officials will make every effort possible
to cause the arrest and conviction of the
guilty party or parties. The practice OF
throwing missiles at trains is very dan
gerous one, and is confined to two classes
Of persons, criminals or those of feeble
mind. An example should be made of
any one found guilty Of this offence, for
only by stringent measures can this evil
