. For Congress.
This evening the well known comedian,
John T. Raymond, will appear at the Sa
vannah Theatre in his new play, “For Con
gress,” concerning which the New York
Tribune says:
“The most novel and important dramatic
event of last week was the successful appear
ance of Mr. John T. Raymond in a new
character. In a critical period, in a period
when acting tends so strongly toward over
refinement of methods, Mr. Raymond is an
especially welcome and refresh
ing presence upon the sta.e,
I for the reason that he creates his efiec s
Iby genuine, spontaneous humor, rather
r than intricate and complex mechanism. Hi-
I great animal spirits, his buoyant vitality,
V his grotesque locomotion, his facial com-
■ posure, his flexible, cheering, unctuous
I voice, his keeu sense of eccentric character
■ and the unerring precision with which he
M|an assume it, the symmetrical absurdity of
■ his raiment, and the incessant sparkle of
■ his droll demeanor combine to make him
■ delightfully humorous; while, of course,
[ his experience has given him the absolute
and perfect control of all the stage expedi
ents that are influential to intensify and |
sharpen the effect of humorous expression.
That an actor so richly qualified and
so thoroughly equipped should obtain a
new character through which to exert his
J admirable powers and his refreshing charm
is a fact to be noted with some emphasis,
because it is equally auspicious to the public
and to himself. In ‘ General Limber” Mr.
i Raymond possesses a part that will soon
’ become as well known and as popular as
| “Colonel Sellers,” and one that ought to
f prove fully as remunerative; and by means
I of this part he will diffuse a vast amount of
I innocent pleasure, and, incidentally, may
I help to abate certain political abuses and
I absurdities which are now a disgrace to
L American society.

THE LAIE W. W. SMITH.
Result of the Inquest Over His Body.
Coroner B. F. Sheftall returned from
holding the inquest on the body of W. W. ■
Smith yesterday evening. He rode on the |
cars to the sixteen-mile post on the Sa-!
vannah, Florida and Western Railway, and !
rode fourteen miles by private conveyance. 1
' Summoning his jury he went to the place ,
where the deceased was interred and had I
the body exhumed. He made au examina- I
tion of the body as best he could, which on ■
j account of decomposition was not very per- j
| feet, and found that the shoulder and one '
I rib had been broken. Seven witnesses were ■
examined, but none seemed to know much
1 of the aflair.
' I Dr. G. R. Millen testified that he had
■ been called in to examine deceased and p e
scribed for him, and related that deceased |
had told him he thought that his injuries j
were received at the hands of Doll Floyd I
and Elsie Floyd, her mother, and intimated
that he would tell more when he got well. I
Very little other evidence was heard, ex- j
cept that Smith was drinking at the time of |
1 receiving the injuries, and had gone to the I
house of the negro woman, Doll Floyd.
' i The post mortem was held in Bryan county,
I but the inquest was according to advice re-
' ! ceived from the Solicitor General, held in I
' Chatham county. After considering the
■ evidence before them the jury rendered a
’ verdict to the effect W. W. Smith came to
his death from wounds received at the
hands of one Doll Floyd. In accordance
with the verdict Dull Floyd was arrested
on a warrant issued by Coroner Sheftall
and brought to Savannah for sate keeping.
She is said to be a very wicked and ugly
looking woman.
