ATTBACTIONS OF THE STAGE

Sally as "Daddy Nolan'' Figures on tho Bills for the Grand Opera-Honsc. OTTeill in the Dramatization of "3rmUCriston Will Fill Oat the Week Jlelodrama at the Tark Plajs and Plajers. The engagement of Daniel Sully, at English's Opera-house the first half of tho current week, will be the occasion of the first presentation here of "Daddy Nolan," a comedy picture of domestic life, in winch Sully's acknowledged ability to comluie pathos and humor is giren fullest play. Jt is a story of New York life, built, in a measure, upon the plan of the plays made popular by Harrigan, but with greater scope for serious work. Mr. Sully's lirst access iu that boisterous play. 'The Corner Grocery ,w brouaht him prominently before the public His second venture was in 'Daddy Nolan," and many of the critics Ray that he then made a stride forward. As an incidental feature of the play, there is a realistic scenic adjunct in a working model of the Brooklyn bridge. In the company aiding Mr. Sully are Max Arnold, a popular ennan comedian; Master Con Malvey.the boy actor, who has been a feature in Mr. Sully V, successes; M'lle. Arzula, Grade Wade. II. P. Keen, and others. "Daddy xsolau" -will be played until Wednesday evening, when ''The Corner Grocery," productive of unlimited fun, will be substituted. Mr. James O'Neill, one of the most polished and finished actors on trie stage, is announced for the Grand next Thursday night and during the rest of the week, in the Charles Fechter version of "Monte Cristo," a play that has a never-failing popularity with all classes of theatergoers. As presented by Mr. O'Neill, '-Monte CriMo" ranks as one of the great successes of the'wotlern drama. Everybody who has read tfctf xoniance has made Ldmond Dantes a hero; consequently the impersonation of that hero becomes a matter of popular interest, and when playeil cs O'Neill plays it, a matter o popular delicht. He treats the ever-varying points of Monte Cristo's life with infinite skill and naturalness; he brings to bear upon the work a ripe experience, a sound judgment and a signal mastery of his art. His company is one of general excellence, and he carries all the special scenery and mechanical contrivances that are necessary to pive the play an adequate stage presentation. The advance sale of seats for Mr. O'Neill's engagement will begin on Tuesday morning. There may bo certain classes of theatergoers who will not bo particularly excited over the announcement that "Uncle Tom's Cabin" is to be played at English's the latter part of this week, but there are doubtless a great many of them who will be interested, and will attend, for this well-worn drama has a never-failing popularity here. This time it will be given by Stetson's company, who have been presenting it for several years, and they are credited with giving a very elaborate production, with special scenery throughout, new mechanisms, a double quartet, and strong dramatic cast, and the proper accessories of Evas. New Jerusalem and Uncle Toms. The engagement will be at popular prices, and seats will be on sale Tuesday. JTJia theatrical event to which Indianapibs peoplejre looking forward with particular interest at present is the Booth-Barrett sngagement, the 19th and ith of the com- ,- ing month. This will be the last opportunity to see these distinguished exponents of the art histrionic act together, as they will be separated after this season. Mr. Barrett is to star on his own accord and Mr. Booth to star with Modjeska. Their performances this season have an increased interest from the fact that they are given with elaborate 6ccnic display, historical costumes, and the other necessary accessories for a thorough presentation. For the "Merchant of Venice." which will be given at the opening performance here, they carry two car-loads of scenery and mechanisms. They, like Mr. Irving, gave this play in its entirety and with much greater display. A change has been mado in the matinee bill as lirst announced it having been decided to substitute "Hamlet" (5lr. Booth's greatest imperKonation) for "Macbeth." Saturday night a double bill will be given "The Fool's Revenge "with Mr. Booth as Bertuccio. and "Yonck's Love," with Mr. Barrett &j i orick. The advance sale of seats will uot begin until the 13th inst. Mr. James H. Waliick, a sensational actor who has a very great popularity in tho theaters in which he plays, will be tho ' stellar attraction at the Park all this week, and is likely to have a very successful en- ' gagement, such as he had last season. On 'Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday matinees and evenings "The Cattle King," a play full of sensationalism, will be presented, . and during the remainder of tho week "The "Bandit King' a drama of tho same 6chool. Mr. WalJick is an actor of the old school, , who has met with much success in this line of work. Tho predominant features of his plays are comedy and excitement, and these are suGicient to draw very large audiences. In both pieces he introduces hi9 wonderful acting horses, whose sagacity and training . are remarkable. They take conspicuous parts in the performances. His company is ftaid to be the best one he has ever had. There will be matinees every day at tho Park, and the usual prices will prevail during the Waliick engagement. Gossip of the Stage.

Minnie Maddern has Just notified her manager, Mr. Arthur Milier, that her condition of health Is ach that she will not bo able to appear for an Indefinite period. Violet Mclnotte, the well-known English actress, recently returned to England from Monte Carlo with $7,000 in gold which she won at that famous resort. n M.

The Drainatio News says: "Ills brain trouble result from the unlimited use of quack medicines for fancied diseases." One of the pieces which William U. Crane will produce for his starring tour next season will be the comedy of "The Kalloon which is now runninjc at the 6 trand Theater, London. The Amer loan rights of this comedy are owned by T. Kenry French. Mrs. rrunk, the elocutionist and dramstlo teacher, assisted by her pupils, will give a literary and dramatic entertainment at the J rand Opera-bone in the near future. She promises a higher class of entertainment, artistically, than she has ever given before. "A Midnight Bell" has made so much of a success at the Ullou Opera-house that Manager llonquent has canceled the dates of all the at tractions that were to follow. This will cive Mr. Hojt new comedy an uninterrupted run for the remainder of the season, treats are now being old for tour weeks in advance. "Hands Across the Sea," Henry Tcttltts's famous melodrama which had such an enormous run at the Princess Theater, in London, and Is now running to packed houses at the irand. in Loudon, has been cured by Gustavo Kahnfor th United State and Canada. The play will be dons at Xlblo'a Garden, 'ew York, early in September. "Yes, I have Just completed a- new play for Mrs. James Brown Totter. It was written for her upon the order of Henry E.

Opportunities Neglected in Unsightly Grounds That Could Ee Made to Bloom with Beauty. Snminer, the season that delights all Senses, is coming again, with, its verdant grasses, its odorous flowers and its waving trees, mnsicrd with aolian zephyrs. It is the season when an overwhelming majority of the dwellers upon the earth, without regard to age, sex or previous condition of servitude, declare that life ia really worth living. The people of Indianapolis, in tho the vernal season, year after year, take moro and more pleasure in beautifying their surroundings. As the fences disappear, more attention is given to plants and flowers, and front yards and 6ide yards bloom as the rose. Strange that, with all this widespread desire for tho beautiful, the grounds about nearly all our public institutions, so easily and so cheaply adorned, are either left almost naked or are made rude and ragged travesties on landscape gardening. Theio is a greenhouso in chargo of a florist at the Indiana Hospital for the Insane, but, like every thing else at that sadly mismanaged place, little good comes from it to the persons whom it might benotit. Upon the many unnscd acres that lie around the hospital llowers might be cultivated in the summer in such profusion that any aud all patients could have a bountilul supply. "Women caro greatly for such things, aud in the female department there are many patients who would be greatly improved by occupation in cultivating various old-fashioned flowers. JJut Crown Hill Cemetery, under the intelligent direction of (Superintendent Cli islet t, is now an admirable example of what may be accomplished with grounds without any special advantages bv means of artistio landscape gardening. The walks, drives and lawns are always in excellent order, and in these matters there appears to be nothing more to bo desired. There is one strange omission at this well-ordered cemetery, and one that strikes tho visitor as most singular. That is the absence of a greenhouse, for thero is none either upon or near the grounds. A greenhouse in the cemetery would not only bo a great convenience to visitors to the place, but would bring in enough revenue to pay for the cultivating of plants and flowers needed, to beautify the grounds. The professional laudscane gardener certainly bad nothing to do with layingoff the StatH-hous grounds. Some people are astonished that an architect and four commissioners knew so well how to do a perfect job in building a fine State-bouse for a small amount of money, and should have so signally failed when they set themselves up as landscape gardeners and rural artists. The money expended upon tho grounds thus far is worse than wasted. It is the opinion of competent authority that all tho work, including the stone fence, will have to be swept away before the elevation of the Canitol can be seen to any advantage, any suitable walks be laid out, or any ornamentation of the grounds be made in keeping with the character of the building. It would seem never to have ocenrred that no architect or even board of State-house commissioners had ever developed into redribbon landscape gardeners; otherwise they would not have relied upon their own Judgment, but would have employed some landscape artist, or at least some man skilled in his profession to furnish a complete map of the ground and giving walks, fountains, system of planting, etc., and thus give the whole an appearance of elegance and an air of repose. All of this could have been completed for less money than has already been wasted in hauling hundreds of loads of street tilth rich in old boots, oyster cans, sardine boxes and the like, and dumped upon about two feet of spalls left by the workmen. These spalls, by the way, ought to have been removed from the ground before the grading was begnn. The stuff dumped on the grounds kept men employed all last summer pulling out weeds by the handful, while others with scythes were engaged in other parts of the grounds cutting them off. The sign boards "Keep off the grass" inclined the passer-bv to satirical laughter, for where tho weeds were not there was nothing in the way of green things; only the bare, brown earth. OXIGEX GAS AS A LIFE-SAVEE. A Patient Dying with Pneumonia Restored by Its Use When Other Remedies Failed. The recent use of oxygen gas in relieving a case of pneumonia in this city, when all other remedies had failed, has attracted a good, deal of attention. As the code of Hippocrates, or some other ancient practitioner, contains a special clause providing for the overhauling by the county society of any physician who imparts information concerning his own cases to a newspaper reporter for purposes of publication, the information desired by a Journal reporter as to the mode of applying the gas had to be sought from other parties than the physicians interested. Prof. II urty, to whom recourse was had, stated that tho gas used had been supplied from his laboratory, and that he bad some knowledge of the case referred to. "It was a case of double pneumonia." he said; "that is to say, one m which both lungs were affected. It has been demonstrated pretty clearly that pneumonia is the result of n disease gerni. or microbe, conveyed to the lungs in breathing, and where the lnngs are intiamed by colds or other irritating ailments these microbes take hold and increase the inflammation. The resnlt is that the lung-cells become rilled up, and unless the patient is relieved the blood becomes thickened for want of oxyeenation through respiration, and the heart is unable to pump it. In the case referred to, as 1 am informed, the cells of one lnng had entirely filled np, and theother was closed with the exception of a small portion near its upper extremity. The medical men who had tried other remedies without effect, came to us and we made oxygen gas for them, thirty gallons, I think, at one time, and about forty gallons afterward. This was administered at first from the opening of a wide-mouthed jar, and afterwards through a breathing tube, and proved effectuil. Of course it had to be civen carefully, as too much of it would have burned out tho lungs as readily aa it oxydizes other material, but it kept the blood thin enongh not to interfere with the heart's action until the lung inflammation had spent its force." . "Is oxygen gas readily manufactured, or is thre usually some delay in procuriugitr . "It is easily made where the appliances and the material are at hand, but it is not always easily to get a pure article. In the case spoken of tho medical men went to the Opera-house, where the gas is stored in copper cylinders, to be used in connection with the oxy-hydrogen light, but they found it was not pure cnouch for their purposes. It is usually made from clorate of potash and oxyde of iron or ferric acid, and is prcferablo when fresh- made." Sprixo neckwear four-in-bad at 25o beautiful styles.

YERESTCIIAGLYS PICTUKES.

A Lady's Impressions of Them as Seen Under TYfcat She Regards Unfavorable Conditions. A few members of the Art Association went to Chicago, Wednesday night, to see the paintings of Vassili Verestchagin. The excursionists had much to make their journey pleasant, not the least of which was the enjoyment an inspection of the great paintings gave. Miss Mary Dean, in recounting the story of the trip and what was seen in Chicago, said the Chicago Art Institute is a beautiful building. "BnU" she continned, "the interior was planned by somebody who never saw a picture. It is evidently one of those unlucky art edifices whose plan ia decided upon by a committee of old dads who never look at pictures. There is not a single room in the building where a ricture can be shown to advantage. Tho top floor should have been a gallery, with a great skylight. There is one dirty little skylight thatleta in no light; otherwise the chopped-up little rooms are lighted by raiserablv useless windows of the wrong shape. Liuht is the first requisite of a picture-gallery; pictures come second. The collection of Vassili Verestchagin was displayed bv that most abominable of all lights (tallow candles are princely by ;the side of it) the arc electric light. There those nasty arc lights sputtered, fizzed, fumed, popped, fizzled, blazed up, and all but went out, in a wav to make you weep, if it had not made yon exasperated. It was like trying to look at pictures ly a light flashed from a piece of tin by a mischievous bo3. Ten minutes of the torment gave the eyes a boiled feeling; fonr hours of it produced a sharp headache. Only the most ardent picture-lover could get through the collection by that light. Cincinnati or Indianapolis wonld know bettor." Hut the pictures of the Kossian atoned for all discomforts, for Miss Dean thinks the subjects were such that only a great genius wonld attempt, "The themes," she said, "are treated in a grand, calm way that makes hours fly like moments, whilo one looks at them. An interesting example is "The Man-eater." A level place of sof t white sand is surrounded by masses of tall, plumy weeds that sprang up in tho wet season of the tropic climate, and have now dried to a bright gold color. On the right a band of fine green turf indicates the presence of a stream. One high palm lifts its feathery tuft into the sunshine. Its trnnk is not perfectly straight, but has a slight bend of the most indescribable grace. A vulture is wheeling about on high, observing and waiting for its sharo of the feast below. Central in the picture lies a nearly nude, dark man, admirably foreshortened and capitallv painted. An enormous tiger lies by his side, one paw on the man's breast, the other ready to tear him at the least movement, bnt the man is dead, a big, ragged wound in his side shows where huge mouthfuls have already been taken. The tiger is a beautiful creature its strength, its sleekness, its enjoyment, its idle grace, its cat-like alertness, are powerfully portrayed. In the 6and are the large, soft tiger tracks, where the beast brought its prey and sank to its repast, scarcly trailing its victim on the ground. "Another masterpieco is 'Blowing from Guns in India.' A wide, sandy plain before the English barracks, flooded with Indian sunlight; overhead, the boundless sky of India is represented. Iu the background the Sepoy army, lately in mutiny, out now taken back into service, is drawn up a long line of white-clad soldiers with dark, watchful faces beneath the white helmets. They are about to witness the execution of the leaders of the Sepoy rebellion. A row of cannon crosses the middle ground. The fair-faced English artillerymen, in their clean cloth uniforms, are waiting, with gTave. expectant countenances, each in his place, the command to fire the cannons. Before each cannon's mouth is fastened, with strong ropes, a white-robed and white-turbaned mutineer in instant expectation of death. Tho first of tho row is a thin. darkbearded middle-aged man. His head is thrown back, his lips are apart, his face is stiffened with an internal consciousness of the coming moment, his eyes have an introverted look. His green robe is flung at his feet. All the drooping, nerveless figures at the gun months are wonderously painted. The work has a simplicity and an accuracy that makes you forget that it is a painting. "One of the most agreeable paintings is a prodigiously large picture of 'The l'rivato Mosque of the Great Moguls in the Palace of Delhi.' The mosque is of white inarbif . The arches which support the roof have waving outlines of the most unspeakable beauty. Beautiful pilasters adorn the supports, and these supports stand on a platform ornamented with a raised design of the greatest delicacy. Tho steps that lead to the platform, the paved court before it, and tho cornice of the roof above the arches are decorated with a tine tracery of black marble let into the white. Thero is not too much of this mosaic, just enough to be complete perfection, and all is delineated with a distinct precision that gives the idea of reality. A few Moslems keel silently, facing the cast. No shrine, no image; no pulpit is before them; their minds are free from all ideas of virgins with children, saints, devils and angels. Another scene is one of rejoicing gayety 'Tho Kremlin In tho foreground a noble stone terrace is gay with, people. Beyond the terrace is a long expanse of blue, sunlit, rippling river. Across the river another lordly terrace is 6een, and beyond it the long bright red battlemented wall of the Kremlin. Gardens, palaces, groves, towers of old grand czars and grand dukes, monasteries and half Tartar, half Oriental domes are crowded behind the wall, and form a glorious scene of Russian summer. Well, you are simply there, when you look at this sparkling picture. Kussian music is played, and Kussian tea is served in the gallery, and the walls are richly tapestried. The pictures of the collection are too numerous to mention. Sunsets in India, nights on tho Himalayas, war scenes, fine interiors, all are works of genius." A SUGGESTION AS TO ECONOMY. Meridian-Street School BuiMing Thought to Be Just the Thing for Library Purposes. II. Bamberger thinks it is high time to begin talking about another city library building. "How sot" "I'll explain," he said to a reporter yesterday. "The school commissioners hold an option to bny the present city library property for $G0,000. This option will expiro Jan. 1, 1891 less than two years hence. For n number of years the commissioners have been paying 5 per cent a year on this $X),000 as a rental. The property is in the shapo of bonds mortgaged by former owners, and these bonds are held by various persous in the East, and any time the Board of .School Commissioners desire to pay the 00,000 tho debt will be cleared and the bonds canceled." "What do you think of the library property as it now stands!" "I do not think it suitable for library purposes at least it will not be suitablo much longer. Those buildings will soon have to bo torn down and others put in their places. Such a course would be expensive. Xow, tho city has a school building no longer of much account for school purposes that would mafro an admirable library building. 1 speak of No. 3, on Meridian street, hetween Ohio and New York streets, a building that cost about $100,000. It could be remodeled and turned into a public library with all the school oilices in the same building at a comparatively small outlay. It would be a good location for a city library on the score of quiet. The street "is a fine one and tho surroundings pleasant." "No. 3 is a poor location for a public school, is it not!'' "Yes: population has greatly changed since the building was erected, and there are few children in the neighborhood of the school. Many of those who attend come from a great distance Some. I understand, from as far away as Indianola. A good school-house could be built on some Ride street for $i,000 or $30,000. The lot where No. 3 stands is large and if the building is made into a library thero is sufficient ground to increasothe accommodations, if ueceasaryt as the years go by. To buy the present library location would, as I said, cost SOO.OOO, and to erect the required new building would require an additional outlay of -,000. or $123,000 in all. Why not take school building No. 3 and save money!"
