There is hardly a better known actor
p[ , ,h stage than James O’Neill and his
, , .mi of Monte Cristo is probably as well
known as any play before the people. Mr.
, i y. ill is popular among all classes of
t!.► .iter-goers. Beyond the announcement
et Mr appearance nothing is necessary.
The rale of seats is now in progress.
The Country Circus will be the attrac
tion Tuesday and Wednesday night and
at Wednesday’s matinee.
T was a happy idea of Mr. Charles
Parnard when he utilized the sawdust
ring in the drama. It roquired a great
deal of study to properly Introduce a elr
i us in a play, but he seems to have struck
the popular chord. The play Is laid in the
legion of Cape Cod, In the town of Mas’-
j,|.j. and deals with the family of an old
sea captain who returns after a voyage
of three years, bringing a child of 15 with
him. This child Is his own daughter; her
mother was a celebrated Castilian beauty,
who died when the' child was quite young.
She was raised In a harum-scarum way
aboard a whaling ship, and, of course,
is unlike other girls and easily shocks
Ihe good old Puritans of the Cape. About
this time. Tony Karnum, the handsome
advance agent of the Country Circus, stole
through town, and meets Savilla and falls
hi love with her immediately, and she with
him. They leave town at once and are
married, and she becomes the famous
beauty, and the star of the circus.
I "pen the episode of her leat’ing home
hinges the whole plot of the play. The
old captain, his friend. Dr. Swope, and
the iwo maiden ladies of the family hear
that she has joined the circus, and start
for Broeton to see If their fears are cor
net Arriving at the circus, these simple
country folks are hailed as ’’Reubens,"
and Ihe fun, fast and furious, begins. At
last Savilla on her snow-white Arabian
charger, comes into the ring, Is recog
nized, explanations follow, all Is forgiven
and everything ends happily.
The Fast Mall Is a railroad play. The
author and manager has contrived to
weave into a consistent story nearly all
the good points of the sensational drama
which tradition has handed down, adding
a number of ingenious mechanical effects.
The fourth entertainment of the Lyceum
• ourse will be Mr. Roberts Harper's Illus
trated lecture Thursday night on "Around
the World on a Man-o’-War.” Mr. Har
per Is the son of an English army officer
who won distinction In the Crimea, and
Is a gentleman of large literary and scien
tific acquirements, a veteran traveler of
wide experience and observation, and an
enthusiast on all matters relating to
I photography. Asa lecturer, he has an
easy colloquial style, a power of vivid
description, and a fund of dry humor
which keeps his audience constantly In
terested and entertained. The tri-lantern
and other apparatus employed by Mr. Har
rier in illustrating his lectures, are en
tirely new, comprehending every novel
device known, and many never before ex
hibited, and producing pictures of colos
sal size if required. Mr. Harper has just
returned from his annual tour in Europe,
with some hundreds of views that are a
veritable revelation of the power of In
stantaneous photography to reproduce the
most appalling appearances that attend
upon the use of high explosives in modern
warfare, and the most beautiful and strik
ing effects of nature by land and sea. His
lecture Is a picture of the incidents and
adventures of a three-years’ cruise; life on
the modern war ship; the wonders of An
dalusia, the Alhambra, Algeria, the Medi
terranean coast, Turkey, Egypt, the Nile,
the Suez canal, Hindoostan, Australia,
New Zealand, etc.; islands of the Pacific
ocean, etc. Some novel and extraordinary
effects are Introduced.

If the sincerity of Hillary Bell, the
dramatic critic of the New York Press
and also of the New York Home Journal,
has ever been doubted, it cannot be
doubted any longer. Mr. Bell attended a
performance by Mrs. Potter and Kyrle
Bellew at Hamerstein's opera house in
New York last week, and he sent to the
Home Journal a criticism which praised
highly the acting of Mrs. Potter. The
Publisher of the Home Journal sent word
back that Mr. Bell's heart had carried
away his head, and made a request that
'he article be altered. Mr. Bell replied in
turn, that as a dramatic critic, he had
hut one opinion to express with regard to
any performance, and inclosed his resig
nation from the Home Journal.
James O’Neill thinks more of his family
than of his stage productions. His life

John J. Sullivan’* Penalty (or t arv
*n* Hie Recorder.
J. J. Sullivan was fined 41 On by Mayor
Myers in the police court yesterday morn
ing for disorderly conduct in the city ex
change Friday afternoon. He was also
lined $5 for cursing the chief of police.
Mr. Sullivan also paid a tine of *lO for
his friend, J. J. Foley, who Interfered {
at the time of his arrest. He also paid j
a fine of So for another party whose of
fense was not connected with the trouble
at the city exchange. This made a total
of SIJO contributed to the city’s excheqite;
by Mr. Sullivan. The amount was prompt
ly paid, and there will be no appeal to
council.
The matter was fully aired in ihe police
court. Sullivan was arrested at the re
quest of Recorder H. E. Wilson. The re
corder. in making his statement, said that
Sullivan approached him in the clerk of
council’s office, while the council was
hearing the appeal cases from the police
court Friday alteration, and spoke to him
about the fine imposed upon Florence
Sullivan, whose case was then before
council.
Sullivan claimed that Florence Sullivan
was at his bar at the time that he was
said to have been at the Pulaski Tues
day night, where he was charged with
insulting Mrs. Slattery. Sullivan was
drinking, and Mr. Wilson did not like
the manner in which he spoke to him.
He inquired rather sharply if Sullivan had
paid *in imjiosed upon him in the polite
court a short while before.
Sullivan’s reply was that it was "none
of his
like this, and he went to Assistant Clerk
Hernandez and inquired if the tine had
been paid. He was Informed that tt had.
Sullivan became more angry when he saw
this, and continued to use profane and
abusive language intended for the re
corder. though he did not address It to
him directly.
There was a crowd in the exchange at
tending the session of coum 11, and the
evidence showed that a large number were
attracted to the scene and that a serious
row might easily have been
precipitated. When Sullivan was
taken In charge by a police
man ho declared that he would not go.
Chief McDermott, who had been called to
the scene, seized him in the collar and
dragged him for a short distance and then
turned him over to Policeman Jernigan,
who took him to the barracks.
Mr. Sullivan, in making hts statement,
said that he approached Mr. Wilson and
spoke to hint in a friendly manner in re
gard to Florence Sullivan's fine. The re
ply was: "Is it any of your business,” and
when the recorder thought that Sullivan
had not paid his fine he threatened to send
.him to Jail. He replied; "It Is not In your
avoirdupois to send me to Jail." He ad
mitted cursing in a loud and boisterous
manner. He also said that he told Dr.
Brunner not to encourage Mr. Wilson to
have hint arrested. He saw Dr. Brunn-r
shaking his head at Mr. Wilson and he
thought he was encouraging the latter to
have him arrested.
Dr. Brunner testified that Sullivan was
most abusive. The affair was a disgrace
to the city exchange, he said. He advised
Mr. Wilson to say nothing.
It came out in the evidence that J. J.
Foley urged Sullivan on anil otherwise en
deavored to provoke a difficulty. A police
man was sent to bring him to the barracks.
Ex-Detective Kavanaugh, who had been
arrested at the same time on the charge
of disorderly conduct, in giving his testi
mony, made use of the expression “our
fearless chief,"
Chief McDermott evidently did not relish
this testimony remark. When he gave his
testimony as to the arrest of Sullivan he
told how Sullivan had cursed him. This
added another charge against him.
The evidence showed that Kavanaugh
had acted the part of a peacemaker and
the charge against him was dismissed.
Mr. Sullivan said that he had apologized
to Chief McDermott for cursing him, and
desired to do so again publicly, which he
Mr. P. J. O’Connor represented Sullivan
and made a speech in his defense. He said
that Recorder Wilson had no right to
threaten to send Mr. Sullivan to jail, and
that in doing so he had acted Indiscreetly.
Mayor Myers said in passing sentence
that he considered Mr. Sullivan’s offense
all the greater because he was a well
known business man, a property holder
and a man of considerable influence,
which it was his duty to have exercised
in preventing disorder Instead of creat
ing it. Has he been un ignorant man, he
said, the case would have been different,
but he was a man of sufficient education
to have known better. Having these cir
cumstances in view, Mayor Myers said
that he would impose a fine of *IOO for
the disorderly conduct in the city ex
change and $5 for cursing the chief of po
lice when arrested.
J. J. Foley was fined $5 for the part
he took In the affair at the exchange and
*5 more for interfering with an officer.
Mr. Sullivan said that he would pay Mr.
Foley’s fines.
Ex-Detective Kavanaugh announced
that he would prosecute Chief McDermott
for false imprisonment. It was shown by
all witnesses, he said, that he had acted
the part of a peacemaker, and that he
was endeavoring to get Sullivan to go
along quietly when he was arrested by
Chief McDermott. When taken to the
barracks, he said, the sergeant on duty,
acting by order of the chief, presumably,
declined to accept ball for him and he
was locket! up. He was there an hour, he
said, before being informed that he would
be allowed to give bail, and then when
ball was offered it was deemed necessary
to send the bond to Recorder Wilson for
approval, which he, as a former member
of the police force, knew to be unusual.
Bail was accepted after he had been in con
finement for an hour and a half. Kav
anaugh says that he was put under arrest
by Chief McDermott simply because he
happened to be In the neighborhood, and
not because he had committed any of
fense.

TO TRY AND PROVE CONSPIRACY.
Witnesses Ordered to Produee Pa
pers In the Electric Railway Case.
The attorneys for Mr. H. A. Pervear
who has filed an amendment to his suit
against the Electric Railway Company
making the City and Suburban and Sa
vannah, Thunderbolt and Isle of Hope
railroads parties defendant, are making
efforts to get up voluminous evidence to
prove conspiracy on the part of the last
named lines against the properties In the
hands of the court.
Subpoenas for several important wit
nesses requiring them to produce certain
papers and letters were issued yesterday
from the office of the clerk of the court,
and some of the papers called for are
those with regard to which evidence was
brought out on the hearing before Judge
Falligant of the application for receiver
for the Electric railway brought by the
Sloes Iron and Steel Company, and others.
Among the witnesses thus summoned
are Messrs. James D. Logan and C. N.
Williamson, agents here for the Sloss
Iron ami Steel Company, and they are
required to present before Judge Speer
next Tuesday morning the contract or
guaranty given Mr. Logan by Mr. J. N.
Harriman, indemnifying him against loss,
in case of a failure to win the suit against
the Electric Railway Company for receiver
and Injunction. This contract Is alleged to
have been signed on Aug. 25, 1894.
If that paper Is not of the jurisdiction
of the court then Mr. Logan is directed
to bring the letter, press copy of It in the
possession of the Sloss Iron and Steel
Company. Mr. Logan's letter book con
taining the copy of his letter advising his
company of the receipt of this guaranty
is also called for.
Mr. Edward J. Thomas Is called on to
produce a letter of Aug. 19, 1893, written
to him by Harry Parsons from Kennebunk,
Me., and also a separate note addressed
to him signed "H. P.,” which came in
the letter In queStiom What this letter
contains is not known, as it has not come
out in. any of the proceedings.
Thg papers President J. H. Johnston is
called on to produce bring up the bond
transaction In which Mr. Harriman was
the central figure. They are a check
issued by the authorities of the City and
Suburban railway In favor of Mr. Austin
R. Myers, or subsequently Indorsed to
him for the sum cf $2,500; rhe'check book
from which It was taken; the minutes of
the meeting of the directors of the City
and Suburban railway, held Feb. 28, 1895,
and referred to In his communication to
the receivers of the Electric Railway Com
pany under that date, and lastly the min
utes of the stockholders meeting of that
road held Feb. 27. or of the attempt to
hold such a meeting.
The proceeding in this suit In equity
before Judge Speer have reached aijrlriter
es ting stage, and they have been much dis
cussed. It will be interesting to know the
extent of the jurisdiction of a count to
require a railroad property to raise its
fares, which are of a nature to be dam
aging to another railroad property, even
should the alleged conspiracy be clearly
proven. The case Is of a singular nature in
many respects, and Its questions can only
be determined by a.court of equity.

NAklSti ITS OWN PIANOS.
The I.Dildea A Itaten New Faelnry
In New lork.
The Ludden A Bates Southern Music
House has established a piano manufac
tory in New York and has begun manufac
turing the Ludden A Bates pianos. The
factory is on Ninth avenue. Twenty pi
anos have so far been sent out and the
capacity of the factory will be increased
as the demands require. The* pianos it
is turning out have proven tine instru
ments. The New York Musical Courier
says of tie firm's enterprise:
There is not a man or woman in the
whole piano industry or music trade of
the United States who is not acquainted
with tno fact that one of the largest in
Mtitutions in the line is the Luaden A:
Bates Southern Music House, of Savan
nah. Ga., with branches at Macon. t*o
lumbus and Brunswick, in Georgia? Knox
ville, Tenn.; Kaieigh and Charlotte, N.
C.; Columbia. S. A.; Jacksonville. Fla,
and New Orleans. La. Everybody who is
somebody in the music trad* knows :hs,
ami also knows that the concern is a wide
awake, progressive house, that antici
pates the current or trend of trade rather
than follows It. For that reason s. will
occasion no surprise to learn that the Lud
den A itales house has become a piano
manufacturing firm, details of the step
being found later on in this article.
The Ludden & Kates Southern Music
House was established in 187i>. W. Lud
den is president; J. H. Bates, vice presi
dent; Jasperson Smith, treasurer, ami
John D. .Murphy, secretary. It has al
ways been the policy of the house to han
dle an assortment of pianos and organs
and do ample justice to each maker The
association, with most of the factories,
ha*> existed for a number of years. The
line of representation is the Steinway pi
anos, the Mason A Hamlin pianos and
organs, the Sterling pianos and organs
ami the Mathusek pianos. To these has
now been aided the Ludden & Kates pi
ano. manufactured at the factory of the
house on Ninth avenue, New York city,
in charge of K. S. Dobson, the superin
tendent. Twenty pianos have alreadv
been shipped from Ihe factory which wiil
be developed gradually in consonance
with the natural growth of trade. The
scale of the Ludden A Bates piano has
been thoroughly tested, and the instru
ment will be fully described in a future
article. It will prove thoroughly satis
factory to the people who are dealing
with the firm, and the fact that the Lud
den A Bates house places its name upon
the instrument and warrants it is a suf
ficient guarantee of Us merits.
The Ludden A Hates house has just
moved its Savannah house into the hand
somest building in that city, ami Its ware
rooms. merchandise department and re
pair shops cover four floors and base
ment, making a display that would be a
credit to any house in the trade, and cov
ering much more space than any other
music house in the south. Its Macon and
Jacksonville houses are also very hand
some establishments, and carry a general
assortment of musical merchandise, as
well os large piano and organ stocks.
It is probable that the manufacture of
pianos was forced upon the Ludden &
Bates Southern Music House by the same
condition of trade that has compelled
other large jobbers to branch out as man
ufacturers. All of those have become
successful as manufacturers, and there
is no reason to doubt that the Ludden A
Kates House, applying Its well-known en
ergy to this new enterprise, will make it
as great a success as its past ventures
have been.

Only Two of the Favorite* Win at
New Orleans.
New Orleans, March 2.—The talent had
another losing: day and lost on three out
of the five races, while Tippecanoe In the
last race, opened up close and the talent
pounded their money in on Folly with a
greater avidity than wa* shown in the
playing of the coin on the Clyde stable
entry. The weather was beautiful and
the sun dried the track up to a certain
extent, but the course was heavy and
lumpy all the way from start to finish.
The attendance numbered fully 4,000,
which is the average Saturday attendance.
BaGniappc opened as an odds-on favorite
in the first rate at 7 to 10, and closed at
3 to 5, and was beaten eight lengths for
the place by Brevity. Fabia won by a
neck.
Hodgson, the favorite in the second race,
won In a common canter by five lengths.
Beverly, the favorite in the third race,
was beaten three lengths by Bay On.
Bird Catcher was a hot favorite In the
fourth, while Hi Henry was the longest
shot In the bunch. The latter took the
pole at the start and ran away from the
field with ease, passing the wire first by
four lengths and under a hard pull.
Fine riding by Thorpe won the race for
the favorite, Tippecanoe, in the last race.

SAM ROBERTS BROUGHT BACK.
The Sinn Who Shot William How
ard In Jail.
Sylvanla, Ga., March 2.—Sheriff Brookcr
brought In yesterday from Columbia, S.
C„ the negro Sam Roberts, who shot Mr.
William Howard in this county about a
year and a half ago. Roberts thought he
had killed Mr. Howard and fled across
the rtver. He was not heard of again until
a few weeks ago, when the sheriff at
Columbia arrested him, thinking he was
Abe Small, the negro who killed Policeman
Neve in Savannah. Sheriff Brooker ob
taining a requisition from the governor,
went to Columbia and now has his man
safely In Jail. The first question he asked
the sheriff was as to how long Mr. How
ard lived after he shot him. Mr. Howard
was not very seriously wounded and soon
recovered from the shot, but he Is very
much gratified at Roberts' being caught.

There has rarely been a better evidence
of the value of militia training In develop

young men. Bieut. Col. Reilly, who
commanded the First regiment, which was
called out Tuesday night, Is a Catholic, but
he displayed no reluctance to suppress tin
rioters The Irish company, with nothing
but hatred for Slattery, askeil to be ex

at the same lime declared they would pro
tect him with their lives, If they should bo
