Tlie Theatre—yiiss Kate Claxton.
One of the largest and most fashionable
audiences this season greeted Miss Kate
Claxton on her appearance last evening at
the Theatre in her new play, entitled ‘‘The
Double Marriage,” which has been well re
ceived whereever it has been presented, ac
cording to our contemporaries.
The movement of the play is rapid, and
its lines verile and happy. The central idea
is a good one, and has been nicely bandied.
Briefly stated, it is the embarrassing situa
tion ot a young woman who marries a sec
ond husband after supposing that the first,
to whom she had been united bv a civil
magistrate under the existing French laws,
had been slain in battle. A child by the
second husband complicated matters seri
ously,when the first turns up unharmed and
eager to claim his bride.
Miss Claxton as “Josephine,” the unfor
tunate wife of two husbands, did not show
to advantage. Whilst she is a good actress,
and is undoubtedly the best “Louise” (in
the “Two Orphans”) that has been seen on
the stage, she lacks versatility, and
failed to divest the persouation of the
action and voice of the blind girl, and to
those who had seen her in this character,
the rendition of “Josephine” was not as
satisfactory as it otherwise might have
been. The part, however, was well given
and the performance entire, though highly
sensational, was excellent and was greatly
enjoyed if we may judge from the ap
plause. The support was good, the
“Dujardin” of Mr. Chas. A. Stevenson
s»nd “Captain Ravnal” of Mr. Edward
Arcott being specially pleasing, and the scene
between the two, just previous to the storm
ing of the bastion, was a remarkably fine
and effective piece of acting. “Dart” was
admirably given by Mr. William Davidge,
Jr., aud the “Sergeant La Croix” of Mr.
William Leffingwell was capital, particular
ly in the last act. “Jacintha” was well
presented by Miss Maggie Harold, and Miss
Wyatt made a pretty “Rose.” The other char
acters were well sustained. In conclusion,
however, it is proper to notice a very im
portant actor, whose appearance last night
brought down the house. The production
on the stage of a real live four months old
baby, in a role which requires a good deal
of talent, not to say discriminating ability,
is a dramatic feat which but one manager
can claim to have successfully accomplish
ed. The “Baby” was the sensation and
was greeted with enthusiasm, as his
plump little face was turned to
wards the audience by proud
“Jacintha.” “Baby” was encored loudly,
and had to be brought before the curtain at
the close of the only act in which he ap
peared.
The company leave this morning for Au
gusta, and thence on to Atlanta and New
Orleans.
musical Entertainment To-Night.
A charming musical entertainment by a
number of accomplished amateurs will be
given this evening at the lecture room of
the Baptist Church, commencing at eight
o’clock. The programme is well selected,
and comprises vocal and instrumental
mus ic, piano, violin and organ being used.
There are two parts, six numbers each, em
bracing quartette, solos and duets, and a
very enjoyable entertainment may be an
ticipated. ’ Those who have not secured
tickets should do so without delay. The
price is only twenty-five cents, and the
funds are to be applied to Sunday school
purposes. ^
Personal.
Among the passengers who returned by
the-steamer St. John’s last evening was Dr.
Osceola Butler and wife, who have been in
Florida the past several weeks. The sojourn
in the Land of Flowers has been very bene
ficial to the health of Dr. Butler, and we are
glad to find that he returns strengthened and
invigorated, and looks like his former self.
He was warmly greeted by bis numerous
friends and congratulated upon his improved
appearance.

A ISemarkably Quick Trip.
The magnificent 6teamer St. John’s,

landings on the. St. John’s, and calling at
Fercandina both ways. She proceeded to
the Central Railroad wharf, where a large
carp-oof Northern bound fruit was trans

be considered a remarkably fast trip.

The Grand Phantom Hop and En

Masonic Temple last evening presented a
ery brilliant and attractive appearance, the
occasion being the grand phantom hop and
entertainment given under the management
of Madame L. Louis and Professor T. J.
Minor. The pupils of the danc
ing school were present in force,
and the attendance of others was
quite large. The Phantom March, with
which the pleasures of the evening were
opened, was imposing, novel and amusing,
and was highly enjoyed by the numerous
spectators who had seats on the
elevated platform at the rear of
the hall. The pupils of the
school were dressed in very handsome and
brilliant costumes, and made up a pretty
picture. Some of the dances were exceed
ingly graceful and beautiful, and all deserve
praise, though we may note specially the
Sailor’s Hornpipe, the Zingarella Medley,
by Miss Gossie Blun, and tambourine dance,
by Miss Ida Weil. The programme was
as follows, and a most interesting and en

Anniveraary Celebration—
eating Occasion.
The thirty-fourth anniversary of DeKalb
Lodge No. 9,1. O. O. F., w as celebrated last
evening in a most pleasant and entertaining
manner, at Odd Fellows’ Hall. The Lodge
room was crowded with members of DeKalb
and sister Lodges, with their lady friends,
the attendance, in fact, being exceedingly
flattering.
The brethren were promptly called up
at quarter to eight by Dr. G. H. Stone, N.
G.. of DeKalb Lodge, who briefly stated the
object of the gathering to be the celebra
tion of the thirty-fourth anniversary of the
Lodge.
The exercises were then commenced with
the siDging of the familiar “opening
ode,” the entire assemblage being invited
to join in.
This was followed by a recitation from
Shakespeare bjfMr. Henry Rosdgnol, his se
lections being Hamlet’s Soliloquy, Marc
Anthony over the dead body of Ciesar, and
passages from Othello. Mr. Rosslgnol pos
sesses a line voice, distinct enunciation,
and his recitation was most creditable, re
ceiving the plaudits of the assemblage.
“The Pilot” wa6 then very finely sung by the
Messrs. Swanston, after which an intermis
sion of ten minutes was taken.
At nine o’clock the exercises were re
sumed, N G. George H. Stone reciting Poe’s
“Raven” in a style which showed careful
study, and an excellently trained voice.
Prof. Chas. S. Mallette then sang with fine
effect the well-known and popular song,
“The Old Sexton.” after which another in
termission of fifteen minutes was taken.
At the expiration of this period, Mr. W.
B. Adams, Jr., favored the assemblage with
some “Dutch specialties,” which excited
general merriment and good humor.
The song “Army and Navy” was after
wards rendered by tbe Swanston Brothers.
The party were then invited to partake
of refreshments and a full half hour was
passed in the discussion of the good things
bo generously provided. This part of the
evening was enlivened by the singing
of “Johnnie Smoker” by the Messrs.
Swanston, and a humorous speech from Past
Grand J. R. Saussy, and the general exer
cises were thus closed, the ladies with their
escorts retiring. Many of the brethren, how

by their admirable management of the af

Report
of tbe Chief- III*
mendation*.
Lutheran Church—The New Organ.
The announcement that the new organ of
the Lutheran church would be informally
exhibited last evening attracted to that edi
fice a large assemblage of the members of
the church, and many outsiders, the body
of the church being tilled. We may here
mention that £the interior of the church
shows exquisite taste, aud the appearance
as presented in the gaslight was beautiful.
The ceiling is very handsome, there being a
number of arches and panels within arches,
aud the cornices are unique in design and
exceedingly attractive. The pews are all in
an«l there is but little to do beyond up
holstering and the marbleiziug of some of
the columns and a little painting. The
church is now, so far as the interior is con
eerned, probably one of the handsomest iu
the State.
So much for the church. We will now note
the organ, which, though not very large,
possesses sufficient power for the 6ize of the
edifice. There were a number of well
known musicians and prominent organists
in the choir, several of the latter playing
different selections, though no programme
was arranged tor the occasion. They all
expressed themselves as highly pleased, and
commended the organ as excellent. The
congregation were greatly entertained, and
the evening was much enjoyed.
The organ case is of the legitimate style,
and is quite handsome and attractive,
making the instrument itself the finish.
It has two manuals and pedal organ, and in
cludes the following:
Great Organ.—Open Diapason, Viol
d’Amour, Stopped Diapason, Octave, Clari
net Flute, Brillant.
Swell Organ.—Viol Diapason, Gamba
Dela, Diapason Am&bile, Stopped Diapason
Bass, Violin, Mixture, Oboe.
Pedals.—Sub-bass 10 feet, Coupler—
Manuals, Coupler—Pedals to great organ,
Coupler—Pedals to swell organ, Trernulo,
Alarm, Pedals.
The voicing of every stop is musical in
character, smooth and even: and the effect
of the organ, as a whole, perfect. Each
stop is adapted for solo use, with an indi
viduality of character well marked; yet so
proportioned to each other that combina
tions produce an intensified power. A
full diapason volume is thus obtained, with
brilliancy and power in tlie combined organ,
without depending solely upon a high pres
sure of the wind.
As has been stated, the organ is from the
establishment of Messrs. II. Knauff *fc Son,
of Philadelphia, a member of w hich firm
has been here superintending its erection.
The thirteenth annual report of Gen. R.
H. Andersen, Chief of Police, to the Mayor,
giving an account of the workings of the de
partment for the past year, contains some
important recommendations in regard to the
selection of subordinate officers of the force.
We give herewith a condensation of the re
port, which will be read with interest:
The aggregate strength of the department
is fifty fire, as follows:
Chief 1
Lieutenant 1
Sergeants 5
Privates 44

the
Ah«aultcd on a Street Car._
Yesterday morning Mr. Lilienthal had
warrant issued by Magistrate Russell against
Lawrence Mallette aud J. Butler, alias Clif
ton, the former a driver on one of the Whita
ker street cars, charging them with assault
and battery. Officer Wetherhorn was depu
tized to make the arrest, and boarding a car
proceeded to the junction, where he at
tempted to arrest Mallette. It is stated that
Mallette resisted, aud drawing a car hook,
attempted to strike the officer, the
hook catching in his pants, but
doing him no other harm. Officer Wether-
horn, obtaining the assistance of Deputy
City Sheriff Russell and Constable H.
Hastcdt, made another attempt to ar
rest Mallette, when that individual, it
stated, brought the car hook into
requisition agaiu, and made a fierce
lunge at the officers, and in the scuffle
Constable Hastedt was cut In the hand,
lie was finally secured, however, and
with Clifton was taken before Magistrate
Russell, who upon the testimony given
committed them to jail to await trial. U is
stated that a warrant for assault with intent
to murder has been issued, and the papers
turned over to the Solicitor General,
it being the intention of the parties to
prosecute the case vigorously.
From the information furnished our re
porter it appears that several months
since Messrs. Lilienthal and Kohn, with
two friends, entered one of the Whitaker
street cars to ride home. In paying the
fare, Mr. Lilienthal intended" drop
ping twenty eents in, when one of the
nickels lodged in the side of the fare
box. The driver, Lawrence .Mallette, pulled
bis bell to attract the attention of Mr. Lili
enthal, being under the impression he had
not paid his fare. No notice was taken of
the signal, however, they not imagining it
was intended for them, and on reaching
their destination they alighted.
On Sunday last Mr. Lilienthal chanced to
board the same car again, and on present
ing ten cents for the fare, it is alleged the
driver used abusive lanpiage to him, and
charged him with having attempted
to “beat” him out of a fare. At
the same time it is asserted that Butler,
alias Clifton, who was on the platform with
Mallette, invited Mr. Lilienthal to step out
side if he wanted satisfaction, as his friend,
the driver, was too busy to attend to him.
Some further words were used, whereupon
it Is charged that Butler made an attack
upon him, but he was nearly knocked
down for his pains, when Mallette went to
his assistance, and put Mr. Lilienthal off
the car. Upon this affidavit the warrant
was issued and the parties arrested, as
stated. A preliminary examination may
develop other facts.
Tlie Hudsona Ahead.
For five cents you can buy a Hudson
cigar, the best five-cent cigar made. Thus
supplied you can smoke. Smoking implies
wisdom iso does buying Kolb’s cigars).
Wisdom is allied to fortitude, from fortitude
it is but one step to stoicism, and a stoic
will never pant for this world’s goods. So
call at Kolb’s, No. 121 Broughton street,
near Bull street, and buy the Hudson cigar
and be happy. A box of these cigars will
make an excellent Christmas present.

After presenting these details the Chief
says.-
‘ In January last Sergeants James Leonard
and William M. Moran, after eleven years
faithful and meritorious service, were re
moved by Council, and privates J. B. Kil
louhry and 11. 11. Harvey were promoted in
their stead.
“During the past year the discipline of
the force has been much impaired, and I
regret to report that I have not received
from some of the subordinates of the de
partment that support and co-opcration
which is so necessary to its efficiency.
“I respectfully suggest that Council con
sider the .advisability of a change iu the or
dinance which provides for the election of
Sergeants, and delegate the power of ap
pointment to the Mayor, as iu the case of
the privates, upon the advice and recom
mendation of the Chief of Police. Merit,
qualification and efficiency being always
recognized as the basis for promotion, and
not political or personal Influence.
“I would respectfully recommend that the
ordinance now regulating the appointment
and term of service of the officers, sergeants
and privates, be repealed, aud that an ordi
nance be drafted and passed providing for
the election by Council of the officers for
the term of three years, instead of one year,
and for the appointment of the sergeants
and privates by the Mayor, upon the recom
mendation of the Chief of Police, subject to
tbe confirmation of Council, for the term of
three years, unless sooner removed for in
efficiency or Improper conduct, or other
sufficient reason.
“ With much respect, I suggest that it is
not only proper and just, but greatly to the
interest of the public welfare, that the Chief
of this department should exert much influ
ence in the selection of all his subordinates,
as bis successful administration and main
tenance of discipline and efficiency depend
upon their zealous and cordial co-operation
with him, without which his best efforts
might be neutralized or obstructed.”

THE VALUE OF TIJIE.
As in a fire the loss greatly depends upon
the time required for efficient aid to arrive,
so the result of catarrh greatly depends
upon the speedy use of efficient remedies.
For over a quarter of a centary, Dr. Sage’s
Catarrh Remedy has been the standard
remedy. The positive cures it has effected
are numbered by thousands. Each year
has witnessed an increased sale. Its repu
tation is the result of superior merit. If
the disease has extended to the throat or
lungs, Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discov
ery’ should be u*ed with the Catarrh Reme
dy. Theee two medicines will speedily cure
the most stubborn case of catarrh. See the
People’s Common Sense Medical Adviser, a
work of over 900 pages. Price, $1 50. Ad
