There is one point upon which the Haverly management exhibits good judgment: they do not have colored men in their show to imitate colored men. Thev positively cannot do tho subject justice. A colored man can not bo a comedian any more than a horse can bo a mule. It requires a talent that the AfroAmerican docs not possess his efforts are always coarse, broad, vulgar and tiresome, as Haverly knows and insists.

Michael McDyer has brought suit against the Monon and the Stone railway company for $,000 damages. McDyer was employed on the new road iu Harrodsburg and had his right eye put out by a shot of dynamite, while working with a blast. He claims that the accident was because of the carelessness of the company. Col. John K. East is the attorney. Tho facts connected with the suicide of E. M. Fads, on Tuesday morning lust, us developed after the publication in the Progress, threw no further light on

the subject. It seems that he had

a severe attack of la grippe while in New Orleu .s, and suffered with an intense pain iu his head from which he was not free when he arrived at home. He had slept but little for seven nights, and in his pain-racked and delirious condition suddenly resolved to end it all, and did so. The funeral services were held at the family residence in Kenwood, on Thursday last, Rev. Allison officiating.

j Open 1 iig of the New Theatre.

I A largo and select audience

i filled the seals at tho new theatre

j ou Friday night last. The the-

; atre is handsomely equipped with new drop curtains and all necesj sary scenery, and tho sealing is uncommonly line. The room u a spacious one and seems to have a j capacity of about 800. It is imj possible to say too much in comj mcudation of the young men whe j have had the energy and entor- ! prise to put their money and labor

into this venture, and the public should extend to them such a

patronage as will be both grati

fying and profitable.

The trap-drfTmmor attracted no small share of attention by his

gyrations and wonderful wtrk on

various music-producers at bis end of tho orchestra, and if he

hud swallowed the bass drum the act would not have created a greater sensation than some of the remarkable things he did do. He was certainly an artist. Billy Itice is one of those comedians who only has to fuce his audience to get them in laughing humor. Rice has been "on the end" so loug that it is second nature with him to be funny. We are gratified to learn that the "three Wills" came out all right financially, though they guaranteed and paid Haverly 1300 for the services of his troupe.

They will at once build a gallery

which will add to the seating capacity of the large room. ANOTHER SUICIDE. On Saturday night last Effie Herben, a 15-year old girl, committed suicide by taking of an oz. of morphine. The story as we get it is that the girl was keeping company with Bert. Sanders and there had been some sort of a lover's quarrel. Sanders, early in the evening it is stated, while in Bowles' drug store, had picked np a bottle of morphine and dropped it in his outside overcoat pocket, and while walking with Sanders, the girl secured it. They went to the home of her aunt, Mrs. Sherman Pate, where tho

girl was to stay all night. She

retired at 1 1 :30, and at about 1 o'clock awakened the other occupants of the house by her groans. Tho empty morphine bottle was found and a note she had written to Sanders, telling how she loved him and was willing to die for him, etcetra. Every effort was made to save the girl's life, but death ended her sufferings at about 1:30. With her mother, Effie came hero from Clinton county, about three years ago, and was employed as a domestic at the home of Cyrus Reed for a long time, but more recently lived iu the family of Prof. Hershey She was a girl of good reputation,

quite pretty, and not yet fifteen years of age. Sanders has worked about the opera house for seval years, and during the past three mouths was one of the fourteeu press feeders in the Progress office.
