The Attractions at the Local Amusement Places During This Week. "A Raff Babv" and "Held by the Encmv" at the (Irand, and Neil Burgess at the. Mnseniu Opening of the Casino. Charles II. Hoyt's successful "outrage on the feelings of the 'palmy-day' critics, as he characterizes it, "A Mag Baby," is announced for the Grand to-morrow, Tuesday and Wednesday evening, and Wednesday matinee. The announcement will probably be sufficient to fill the theater at every performance. "A Rag Baby''" makes . no lofty dramatic pretensions, but it is admirably calculated to keep an audience in a roar of laughter for two hours or more, and is as full of amusing features and :catchine" music, nearly all of it new this season, as one cares to see. Mr. Frank Daniels, as Old Sport, Las given to the current stage a genuine piece of characterization, which is the redeeming quality, from an Artistic stand-point, in the production of farce. 'It is an exceedingly humorous and original impersonation.. The company, aside from him, includes nearly all of the original members. Miss Bessie Sanson, a particularly clever soubrette, will play Venus, Miss Helen Reisner the Schoolmarm, and Mr. Harry Conor the dude tramp. A theatrical event of more than usual interest will be the production at the Grand the latter part of this week of Mr. Wm. Gillette's new play, "Held by the Enemy," which has been a conspicuous success wherever presented. Mr. Gillette will be remembered as the author of "The Professor" and "Esmeralda," and his new play is described as by far the best he has ever written. It was originally produced at the Madison-square Theater, New York, where it had a long and prosperous run, and since then it has met with a Bimilar reception in all the larger cities. ; The New York Times characterized it as "a play of positive merit, beautifully mounted and well acted." It is a play purely American in story and treatment, and of the greater interest on that account It will be produced here with the origSnal New York cast, including Miss Louise Dilon. The' advance sale of seats will begin on luesday morning. Mr. Neil Burgess, always a popular comedian, j " una uotoi (jiujeu jicio uexure, Ciucpfc iu vuo high-priced theaters, will be the attraction at the Museum all this week. Every evening during the week and at matinees on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday he will appear in his new play, '"Vim," which has never been presented here, and which is described as ezceedinclv frinnv. A fe&tnre of tha nerfornriAnee will be the novel , mechanical effect, the .revolv ing stago ana the famous horse-race scene. At tho matinees on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday hia company will appear in the old-time, favor- , tte, "Widow Bedott," which has often been seen and laughed at here. His company includes various capable comedians and vocalists, and both plays will be presented with novel and picturesque scenic effects. There will be no advance in prices. The Eden Musee continues to be a very popular resort The wax figures, tableaux and representations, including the famous Chicago Anarchists, are all interesting and novel, and will well repay attendance.' The Musee is open from 9 o clock a. m. to 11 o'clock p. M., and the price of admission is but 10 cents. There will be new attractions there this week. Strangers in the city can spend an hour very pleasantly at the ' Mueed. The new attraction put in yesterday, Nina Vanzandt, the coming bride of Anarchist Spies, created much interest yesterday. The Casino, the new amusemont enterprise to be operated under the management of Messrs. . Terry, Carter, Cook & Co., will be opened tomorrow evening at No. 12 North Mississippi street It will be something of a novelty in the amusement line, as it is announced that it will combine the features of a circus, meuagcrie and museum, tbe admission to which will be 10 cents. A number of circus performers will appear in tbe opening entertainment to-morrow evening, and during tha remainder of the week. The show will be managed by Mr. Frank R. Carter, a well known and capable business man. '.. ' Note of the Stage. ' ' BojeicauU's new play is styled "Fin McCool." The compact between Barnura and Foropaugh's circuses is for four years. .

Last Monday evening, at DesMoines, la., Mr. Al Lipman, of this city, played Claude.Melnotte with Mies Rose Coghlan on twenty-four hours notice, and the star was so pleased with his effort that he will continue to play the part the remainder of the season. - Amons the attractions that will appear at English's during the next few weeks, are '"Around the World in Eichty Davs," Evans & Hoey in "A Parlor Match," McNish, Johnson & ftiavin's Minstrels, Ben Macinley in "May Blossom" and "The Black Crook." ; Managers Dickson & Talbott have sent invitations to all the orphan asylums of this citv to bring the children lo eee the curiosities at the Eden MuFee and the performance of "Widow Bedott," at the Museum, on Tuesday afternoon. Seats will be reserved for them, and they will be properly cared for. In Kansas City last week, Frank Daaieis bought a new dog, a brindle greyhound, to supplement "Handsome," in "A Rag Baby," but that ugly Canine refused to be supplanted, and in one of the most spirited fights on record, succeeded in whipping the o'er comer so badly that he won't be able to appear in anything, except poultices, for a long time, and "Handsome" continues aa the star. . After the recent maneuvers of the German army a serenade was given in honor of the Emteror, and 1,200 exaentauts took part It was pitch dark, and, ot course, quite impossible for five bandsmen to soe the conductor's beat But Science suggested asi accumulator on the music desk connected with a properly covered wire secured along the conductor's stick, from the top ct which there shone a tiny electric light. . Mr. Charles It. Hoyt says his new comedy, A Hole in the Ground," will be quieter than his previous efforts. Outside of two explosions, three fights, the total destruction of a baggage truck, the staving up of seven trunks by the Baggageman, the obliteration of everything but $he four walls dunne "fire minutes for refreshments," a fierce battle between a bulldog and a JVestern bog, and a collision of two traiiiB, there Is very little noisy business in the piece. Tho laws of Michigan do not allow the posting ft eertatn kinds of show bill. Anything de scriptive of murder is especially tabooed. There sust be no upraised knives or cocked guns. Wn tbe picture of "Vlrginlns" in the forum is irbidden. The law reads: ' "No sign, picture. tainting or other representation of murder, as

Heaton, Miss Lulu Burt, Oiiiis Schellschmidt, Louise Weegraan, Louis Comlossy, Harry Fletcher, Emma Wocher, Emma Fahrbach and others. According to a London musical statistician pious advocates of grand opera and equally riehteous contemners of dramatic immorality will do well to reflect upon the moral careers and cheerful takings off of the following favorite lyric heroes and heorines: Suicides, Ernani, Elvira and Norma; in "L'Africaine" (two): "Romeo' (two), and Gilda in "Rigoletto."

The Vice-President of the Parliamentary Tarty in. the British Commons. Mr. Justin McCarthy, M. P., ia a native of Cork, and, needless to say, he possesses all the patriotic fervor for which natives of that rebel city are famed. He was born in the southern capital in 1830. In early life, after having received a sound education in the best schools of his native town, he joined the profession of journalism, his first engagement being as a reporter on the Cork Examiner, then edited by John Francis Maeuire. From the reporters' room McCarthy was promoted to the post of foreign editor, and in 1864 ha was made editor-in-chief of the Star. The Starwas the only one of the London papers which, during the American civil war, took the side of the Union. While the Times and all the other Tory and Whig organs of England were writing up the'eauseof the rebels and vilifying and de nouncing the administration at Washington, Justin McCarthy, in the columns of the Star, was splendidly defending the patriot-President Lincoln and the brave men of the North, who were struffeling to save from destruction the great republic which England so much hated and feared. In 1S63 Mr. McCarthy resigned his post on the Star and paid a visit to the United States. His reception was a most cordial one. . Mr. McCarthy was first elected to Partiament in 1879, when he was returned unopposed for Longford county. At the general elections of 1S80, 1885 and 188G ho was re-elected, unopposed, for the same county. Besides beine chosen for Longford, he was a candidate for Derry at the two elections of 1885 and 188GV On tho last occasion, a few months ago, the contest was a very close one. The Loyalist candidate, C. E. Lewis, carried the election by a bare majority of three over Justin McCarthy. . " His first election had an element of romance in it Some private theatricals were taking place at his house; and iu the midst of the amusement a telegram arrived, simply saying: "Come to Longford; we want to elect rou as member." At a moment's notice Mr. McCarthy started for Longford. When he returned home he came back in the character of the successful candidate. At the meeting of the Irish Parliamentary party, in August, 188G, at which Mr. McCarthy was fleeted vice-chairman Mr. Parnell being elected chairman it was resolved, That wo reaffirm the right of the Irish people to self-government, and declare that no measure offerine less leRislative or execntive control over Irish affairs than that contained in Mr. Gladstone's bill can be accented as a settlement of the Irish National question. In appearance Mr. McCarthy has the look of a cultivated man of letters. His novels are intensely interesting, and his . historical works evince a keen appreciation of men and understanding of measures. He is well built, has a fine head and an expansive chest, and stands verv straight and erect. His face fairly beams with a kindly, sympathetic expression, and he is the last person in the world who would be taken, to use his own words, for a turbid revolutionist Mr. McCarthy's style of speaking i3 very quiet and undemonstrative. His gestures are few and modest, and his voice is sweet and winning. There is jnst enough of brogue on hi3 pronunciation to give his speech an added charm. Mr. McCarthy delivered the first lecture of his present tour in this countrv at the Academy of Music, New York city, Oct 4, 188a Since that time he has been continually on the lecture platform. Mr. McCarthy will lecture at Plymouth Church on Wednesday evening, Jan. 26. A Revolutionary Soldier's Powder-Horn. The State Geologist received a powder-horn yesterday, which was carried by John Shaler during the revolutionary war. It is made of a bull's horn, and has a map of New York and vicinity engraved upon it, bearing the date of "October, 1776." It was given to the museum by Shaler's grandson, John S. Mix, who recently died at Cumberland, this State. Best eating, reasonable prices Schaffner's. Geobge G.

VALUABLE HUNTING DOGS.

Some Owned in Indianapolis Thai Are Celebrated for Their Field Work. Preparations by the Kennel Club for Holding a Bench Show and Field Trial of Unusual Interest During tho Year. The breeding and breaking of hunting dogs has grown to be a much larger and more important business than persons not conversant with field sports would imagine. Only those directly interested can understand the great value placed upon finely-bred dogs by their owners. In the Memphis kennels three prize dogs are valued at $13,000, and in 18S6 their owners earned in stud fees and from the sale of puppies over $18,000. This represents only one kennel, and there are, in the country, at least fifty doing a paying business. Indianapolis owners, without any famous kennel, can show an investment in fine hunting dogs of about $12,000. A kennel club has, however, just been formed, which will tend to increase the number of fine dogs owned here and be of financial benefit to those interested. The club, as organized, has already a membership of over thirty, with D. C. Bergundthal a3" president, J. G. Parsons as secretary aua S. H. Socwell a3 treasurer. Their membership is to be increased to 100, and during the year it is the intention to hold a bench show and field trial which will be open to the State. SPhe projectors of the enterprise propose that this bench show shaH embrace many interesting and novel features, while the list of special prizes will be by far the best ever offered. The State Fair management will be asked to join in the enterprise and assist to make it one of the most attractive features of the coming State fair. The puppy prize will be of special interest, as those entering the competing puppies must be children under ten years old who have themselves bad the care of the dogs. Among owners of hunting dogs in this city is P. T. Madison, who has a fine kennel of Llewellyn setters, English pointers and Irish waterspaniels, all of the best breeds. Among these is "Don," a Gordon setter, and "Rush Gladstone." half-brother to the celebrated "Paul Gladstone." Mr. Madison has refused $500 for Rush within the past six months. There are tn this city a number of well-broken setters, prize-winners, worth to their owners from $300 to $500 each. Younger and unbroken dogs are, of course, not worth so much, but even these will run all the way from $50 to $500. and no hunting-doe, considered of any use at all, can be bought for less than $50. ' J. E. Isgrige has a red Irish, that ia one of the most thoroughly broken dogs in the State, and will be a formidable competitor in the coming field trial. George F. Branham owns two pointers ami a setter, the last named bought in Canada, and valned at $100. He has a pointer puppy for which be paid $50, and a lemon and white pointer, "Mac," thoroughly broken, whose sire and dam were the celebrated dogs "Sensation" and "Rose." well known to sportsmen and breeders. Horace Comstock takes to Irish, and is the possessor of two fine specimens of this breed a puppy and Royal C. The picture of the latter shown at field work, painted by Mr. Gruelle, is on exhibition in the When windows. Ray Williams is the owner of the only black pointer in the State, at least the onlv well-broken one. Her name is "Topsy," and her superior in the field, it is claimed, is not to be found. She has seven puppies sired bv Mr. Branham's dog "Mac." Joseph Becker has four fine dogs. English setters and pointers, bis "Jim Blaine" being a specially fine animal. Henry Schwinge has some first-class Gordons. These two gentlemen, with others, will probably start a kennel at Amo in the spring. Thomas Taggart is the owner of "Matt," a cross between a pointer and setter, thoroughly broken and a fine retrever. S. H. Socwell owns "Change," white, black-and-tan, valued at $500, and Joseph Jasper owns "Lady Change," a valuable animal. These are but a few of the many as there are in this city fully one hundred valuable huntingdogs that would do credit to any bench show or field trial. Harry S. New has a brace of fine pointers, and an Elcho Irish dog that attracts the admiration of every one who knows what a fine dog is. Royal Robinson has some fine pointers. In addition to breeders of hunting dogs, there are breeders who give attention to other kinds, and to some profit W. M. Haag has bred a number of fine collies, and there are breeders who see money in pugs. A good pug brings from $15 to $20. Of course, prize-win" ners of the pug kind are held to higher figures, bringing as much as $150 or $200. But there are none so valuable in this city. Thomas Jackson, on his farm, near Gallaudet. has a breeding kennel of genuine English mastiffs, and for several years has made some money out of them selling puppies as hieh as $30 each. A rrize Pointer's Instinct. Philadelphia Inquirer. Mr. C. J. Peshall, who presides over the Jersey City department of the S. P. C. A., is president of the New Jersey Kennel Club, and owns some of the best pointer dogs in New Jersey, was in Philadelphia yesterday. Mr. Peshall finds relaxation-in studying the characteristics of the canine family. "Have you heard the 6tory about my Jimmie?" ho asked. "No? Weil, I was sitting in the Hoffman House cafe the other evening dreaming away the time while waiting for a friend. Jimmie was curled at my feet, when presently he got up, stepped care'f ully across the rug as if it was on game and came to a full point at the opposite corner. There he 6tood. t, model for an artist After being called several times he returned to his old position, but did not seem satisfied. He repeated the maneuver only to be called back again, and . after he had done so twelve times I beer an to get interested. Going to the corner of the rug I turned it un and there found a dollar. He kept on pointii?? the dollar till I counted eigbty-four. Just then some friends came in, and I told them that Jimmie would point a silver dollar. They lautrhed at the idea, but I told him to 'hie on.' He jumped up, sniffed about, but it was no good; he would not repeat the trick. I had to tell the story of what he had done, and going to the corner to pick up the dollar in confirmation of my story, found it was a trade dollar, which, as you know, is only worth 84 cents. I tell you Jimmie knows a trick or two." SWISS SNAILS FOR FOOD. An Indianapolis Man Who Intends to Ptaise Them for the Market. Mr. Ernest Amiet, a Swiss printer on the German Tribune, of this city, is preparing to try a novel experiment in the way of establishing a snail -culture industry here by importing from his own country about three hundred of the terrestrial molluscs. If they live and successfully complete the trip over here, he will try to ac climatize them, and, by their careful culture, promulgate the sale of them for use as a delicacy npon epicurean tables. Of his modes of preparing them for the table, which ate peculiar and original, he prefers to 6ay nothing, but will certainly make them known if his experimental importation should Ee successful. As long ago as the time of Pliny snails were considered a delicacy, and those which came from Barbary and Sicily were highly prized by the fastidious Romans. Yarro says it was the custom to fatten them for the table upon wine and meal, and he avers that he has seen some so fat that "their shells would hold ten quarts of liquor." Even the Romans of to-day continue to relish snail meat, and large numbers are consumed by them annually. But the hot-bed of snaihjry is in the Tyrol, where tha paterfamilias tarn out their children to hunt up snails ia tho

spring, and corral them in little gardens for their accommodation. These gardens are situated in small plats of ground, free of trees, and covered with moss and pine twigs, surrounded by moats with eratings at each outlet, so that if their snai'.ships should get into the water they can't get away. They are fed upon fresh erass and cabbage leaves, which they devour with remarkable voracity, and when they satisfy their appetites they crawl into their shells and sleep through the whole winter. It ia usually their last sleep, as when the spring is at .hand they are routed from their slumber and hurried to the markets to be sold. With the whole Tyrolese population in the snail business, and each garden yielding an average of 30,000 snails apiece, tbe annual crop is enormous, and is sent all over Europe for use at the tables of the aristocracy. They are sent to Paris and London, and are to be found upon the bills of far9 in many of the restaurants in those two cities. The large brown snails found in some parts of .tn-aJ Tyrol and of Italy are the most prized, and in Robert May's English cook-bookj published many years ago. is eiven the directions for stewing, frying and boiling them. It says that they must be stewed in claret vinegar and spices, with some minced, hard-boiled eggs, and served on bread with slices of lemon. Another recipe is: "Fry in butter with onions and eels, or shelled, salted and scoured, boiled in rosemary, parsley, thyme and salad oil, put back into the sheila, fried, and served hot from the gridiron." . The mucilaginous soup made by boiling the snails is a sure and only cure for consumption and some other complaints, and thus the snail slowly but in a getting-there-just-the-same manner creeps into the materia medica. At numbers of the English watering-places this arrangement is still in vogue, but the majority of the invalids consider it worse to take a spoonful of snail soup with everything they imbibe than to. suffer from disease. It has more terrors for juveniles than castor oil. With all this history back of snail-eating, not considering the personal attractionsof thesnails, Mr. Amiet proposes to thrust them into the mouths of whatever unwary Hoosiers may gaoe in wonderment. He don't think that Indiana 6nails would be very competent students in the fattening process. He fears that they would be nothing but slattern creepers, no matter what amount of education and wine-sodden bran was them. He believes in the great fat snails of his own Switzerland, and thinks nothing so rare and delicate as a dish of Swiss snails.

Our oldest child, now six years of ase. when an be

fant six months old, was attacked with a virulent malignant skin disease. All ordinary remedies failing; we called our family physician, who attempted to ew it; but it spread with almost incredible rapidity, untj the lower portion of the little fellow's person, f rom the middle of his back down to his knees, was oat solid rash, ugly, painful, blotched atd malicious.
