PORTER ]. WHITES FAUST.

In brief, the plot is as follows:
Faust, a learned alchemist, doctor
of philosophy, having reached the
age when all pleasures that the
world contains fails, invokes the aid
of the spirits to give him new emo
tions, that life might be worth living.
In response to his frenzied appeal
Mephisto appears and agrees to give
Faust youth, health and passions,
and all the pleasurable enjoyment to
be drawn therefrom, upon condi-
ton that when the gamut is run his
soul shall belong to Mephisto. Faust
is dazzled and held spellbound by a
beautiful vision of Marguerite,
wrapped in an angelic halo, which
fades away as he passionately rushes
upon it. He accedes to Mephisto's
demand and a compact is drawn be-
tween them. The aged and senile
philosopher is transformed into a
handsome youth, burning with pas
sion and eager with anticipation.
From this time forward his one thot
is of Marguerite. Then follow his
meetings with her, their mutual
love, his betrayal of her confidence,
the poisoning of her mother. while
seeking only to make her slumber
more deeply, the return Of Valen-
tine, her soldier brother, whose an
guish and rage know no bounds
when informed of his blasted home.
He meets faust in duel and by the
devils aid is killed. Insidious Me-
phisto excites the justice-loving
neighbors of Marguerite by inform
ing them of the seeming unnatural
murder of her mother, and she is
carried off to prison. Faust finds
his way into Marguerite's cell par.
TALLY demented. He proposes tt
carry her away to escape the dreaC
consequences of her crime, but al
this time the gentle spirit goes Out
and Mephisto claims Faust as his
own, who is saved by the interven
ton Of the spirit of repentance anc
remorse. Ministers turnout the
country highly endorse Faust as ;
moral lesson and critics of grea
repute dwell long in praise of thi
presentation and claim this season.
