Grand "Delnionlco'N at $." , It was a compliment to the charming Jan-, gen as well as to Indianapolis that bo large Jan audience was at the Grand last night to Bsee the first performance In this city of "Delmonlco'a at 6." There were box parties n every 'box,'- from the proscenium, back. And It would have taken not such a great 'number more in the boJy of the house to havji necessitated brushing the dust oft Dk-ksv. & . Talbott's "S. It. O." sign and standing it In conspicuous opulence In the foyer, Mls3 Jan sen and her company made a long Jump to reach Indianapolis for the 1895 New Year's engagement, having closed the Christmas week in Lancaster, Pa. Yesterday she epent the day shopping and driving over the city, being particularly harmed, as she said,, with Indianapolis, which she had not visited for years and years; not since the days of the "Black Hussar" opera, when "R;ad the Answer in the ' Stars" was the topical favorite, sung by DeWo'jr ,t Hopper, Jeff DeAngells and herself, ' ftnd when her "One, Mama," was a veritable rage. That Miss Jansen's career hap been followed and the public kept familiar with her reputation was evinced by the warm reception when she made her appearance In the first act last night. Glen MaeDonough's three-act farce starts off full tilt with Interesting business and the capable end lively work of all the company supporting Miss Jansen wan such that there were no dragging scenes from first to last. There are some wondrous costumes displayed by Miss Jansen selected with a view to well, to not disguise one of the prettiest figures with which ever arty woman was blessed, and this tpsteful dressing, with the gargling laugh, Jansen smile and dimples, bright hazel eyes and : midnight hair to which she owes so much of her fame, make her the winsome, magnetic creature she has always been. Miss Jansen has two taking songs in "Pel's at 6" that are given with all the old familiar Jansen expression, but It is to be regretted that Herr Miller's orchestra made a blundering "botch of the score and put the pretty star into a had but not unbecoming temper. When flr.'t-class attractions of this sort come to Indianapolis there really ought to d some enort to Dribe the musicians to cast personal differences aside, or whatever is the difficulty, and see if they could not be Induced to honor the occasion with their good behavior. The trombone should not wait until the clarionet naa started down he street on a gallop to catch the first violin a block in the lead before It strikes up; nor should the double bass imagine it has time to stop and get a hot tomale on the corner before Joining the procession. "Delmonlco'a at 6" is not a "roarlne"

ice' farce so-called, but it delights in a strong

That pretentious scenic performance, "The Witch of Endor," opened a week's engagement at English's last night to a fair-sited audience and one that was highly appreciative. The mass of scenery was handled with fine effect, but the numerous performers necessary to the production seemed rather more than to fill the stage at times. There are ten scenes In the first part and fifteen in the second, closing with the great A HARD-WORKING WOMAN sooner or later suffers from backache, nervous, worn-out feelings, or a sense of weight m the abdomen, dragging: down sensations and dizziness.

It is announced that 250 people are necessary .for-, - the production and that was - not hard to- believe last night, "s One regrets not being able to see all the play, so that the critical mention, which each of the leading characters and the many scenes deserve, might be given at length. Miss Ruth Hauck did a good piece of acting as the famous Witch, while -King Saul was well suited to the talents of .George W. Leek. The three attendants on the Witch were Misses Schulmeyer, Wocher and Ernestlnoff. while the Spirits of Darkness were taken by Messrs Hook. Jungclaus, Ludorff, Smith. Otto Leek, Kopp, Klpp and Jones. All acted their parts with more than average ability. The solo vocalists were Mrs. Vonnegut, Mrs. Reger and Miss Carey, and three better singers could hardly have been found suited to their parts. The , other principals In the cast were Miss Adelaide Goetz, as the Enchantress; Ruth Qulgley, as The Wave; Elmla Papenbrock, h-s The Coquette, and the dancers, Edna Kuhn, Elsa Wocher. Flora Andregg, Anna Stanton and Getta Cook. Those taking part in the various dances, marches and ensemble have been mentioned before.

Parle The Dyrous In a Kew Play. Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Byron brought a new play to the Park yesterday, called "The Ups and Downs of Life." The theater was crowded at both performances, not a seat being vacant down stairs or up. The play has a peculiar title, and promises to be the best drawing sard the Byrons ever had, and that is saying a good deal, for they have been very successful. If "Ups" stands for farce and "Downs" for melodrama, the play is well named. The Juxtaposition of the most boisterous horseplay and tragedy marks every act. Never was the susceptible gallery god required to change from grins to groans with such alacrity. The farcical part of the story Is particularly well written. In fact, a successful' farce of the "Jane" type might easily be extracted from "The Ups and Downs of Life" without much alteration of the text. The melodramatic side is strongly developed and the sensational features are exciting enough to delight the big audiences that will see it all this week at the Park. As usual, Mr. Byron' a company 19 good throughout. His talented wife, Kate Byron, the sister of Ada Rehan, is capital in the part of Jane Judkins, an Irish servant girl, and Fred Warren is equally good In the opposite part of Alphonzo Smith. Mr. Byron himself is a manly hero as Vivian Ransome. Empire "The Galley Slave." It is an able company that Is presenting "The Galley Slave" at the Empire this week. It is under the management of Robert and John Campbell, sons of the late Bartley Campbell, author of the piece. The familiar plot of the play, which hinges on the devotion of a young man to the woman he loves, hardly needs elucidation. "The Galley Slave" has been on the stage for many years. The present performance might be called a revival. Miss Loduskl Young as Francesca gives an Impersonation of the persecuted and deserted wife with considerable force and talent. Myron Leiflngwell'a Sidney Norcott is perhaps a bit overdrawn In the emotional passages, but on the whole Is a success. The Psyche Gay of Miss Lola Morrison is done with a finish and smoothness that is rvn-e often seen on the Btaga of the hig.?? priced theaters than in performances at popular prices. J. A. Wheelock as Franklin FWts shows himself to be a comedian, of good attainments. The remainder of the company are capable, affording a support that s adequate to the demands of the partis assigned. The comedy element of the entertainment was successfully handled by W. W. Allen, the well-known comedian, who was last seen here as Seth Perkins in Denman Thompson's "Old Homestead." There will be matinees daily. Notes of the Stage. The New Year's matinees to-day at the Grand, English's and the Park will begin at 2:30, half an hour later than usual, to give everybody plenty of time to get to the theater. From present indications Felix Morris will do as much business here the last half of this week as was ever done by . Rosina Vokes in the old days, when Morris was her leading man. ' WEATHER FORECAST.

BUTLER'S QUEER ACTS ASKS TO HE LOCKED IP ASD PRE-

VESTED FROM LEAVING TOWS. Rejoicing at His Home Over the Final Clearing; Vp of the Mystery of Ills Disappearance. . Walter II. Butler, the Iowa ex-Congress-maji. who has created so much excitement by disappearing and then turning up in Indianapolis with no recollection of how It happened, occupied the time and attention of the police again last night. For a time it was thought he had disappeared a second time and search, was begun for him. Late yesterday afternoon Mr. Butler called upon Superintendent Powell and made the strange request that he be lockd up until his brother arrives. He said he had a longing, which he was unable to under stand, to leave this city. He had found himself headed for the Union Station several times during the day and, fearing he would stray away before his brother came, he asked to be detained. The Superintendent "replied that he .had no authority to lock him up, but that he might remain at headquarters if he wished to do so. Mr. Butler took a seat by a window and sat for more than an hour watching passersby and talking to the officers who came in. While he was sitting thus, a well dressed man entered and, walking to the ex-Congressman, seized him by the hand and said cordially: - "Well, Walt, I am indeed glad to see you alive and well." "I am alive and in the best of health," repiieu Mr. Jluner, "and I must say my friends who think me dead or insane, are badly mistaken." The well-dressed stranger gave the name of H. G. Pniilips and said he was an attorney from Oelwein and was sent here to identify Mr. Butler. He said there was no mistake about Mr. Butler's identity. A consultation with Superintendent Powell followed. Mr. Phillips took from his pocket a circular containing a description of the man before him, wno was thought to be dead. "Ho has- a small scar on his neck," Mr. Phillips read. "Yes, here It Is," replied Mr. Butler, pointing to a scar below his ear. "He had one false tooth," continued Mr. Phillips. ' "Here is the tooth," answered Butler as he drew a false tooth from his vest pocket, and then explained, "I am not wearing it to-day. "He generally wore a low collar and a black string tie and always carried a gold pencil In his upper vest pocket," the circular went-on to explain. "Gentlemen, you see the collar and tie," replied Mr. Butler, "and here is the pencil." He drew a small pencil from his pocket and then added, "I guess there is no doubt about this being me." Mr. Phillips related to the Superintendent the circumstances of Mr. Butler's disappearance. Thursday, Nov. 22. he notified the pupils of his school, the Iowa State Normal, that he was suffering with a severe headache and would have to be excused from further teaching for the day. Later he was seen in the neighborhood of the depot, but no one noticed him get on a train and his whereabouts have been a mystery until word was received that he was In .this city. The theory of murder is prevalent at Oelwein and the reward of $500 offered was more for the return of his body than for a clew to his whereabouts. Superintendent Powell turned Mr. Butler over to Mr. Phillips and the two left the building together. They had not been gone thirty minutes when the following telegram was received from James Butler: "No one is authorized to act in the Butler case but myself. Watch the man from Oelwein." This telegram aroused in the minds of the police another doubt and the case became more complex. Had Mr. Butler been decoyed away again? Officers were sent out but no trace of the two men could be found. Superintendent Powell evidently became anxious for he telephoned several times from his home. Hours passed and no Mr. Butler put In an appearance. Shortly before midnight the ex-Congressman came walking leisurely into headquarters, smoking a cigar. Phillips, he said, had left for home on a late train. "He thinks I am off in my head." Mr. Butler remarked, referring- to Mr. Phillips, "but I guess I am about a3 good as the rest of them out in Iowa." "Is there any insurance upon your life?" the reporter asked. "About $3,000," was the answer. "I have little property and some debts. If the property was sold and the debts paid I would be about even with the world." Mr. Butler was given a room for the night in the female department. The police are at a loss to account for the uneasiness of the brother, who seems ; determined in his belief that ex-Comtressman Butler is dead and that the Indianapolis man is an impostor. He has asked for descriptions, has requested that photographs be taken, but has shown no -dispotition to come here and clear the matater up, although he might have reached here since learning of his brother's whereabouts. His actions may be accounted for, to some extent, by the following reward offered at Oelwein, which shows that the theory of murder predominates there: "A reward of $500 is offered by the city of Oelwein for the recovery of the murdered body of Walter H. Butler, if found at or in the vicinity of Oelwein or Fairbank, la., within three months, within three months." Mr. Butler is evidently a popular man at his home. Late last night the following teleexam was received from Oelwein: "This city is all excitement to-nieht over news that positively clears away all doubts as to the safety and welfare of Hon. Walt H. Butler. The Mayor purchased all the fireworks to be had and grand illuminations are being made." KEEPING OPEN HOUSE. List of Thome Who Will Receive Their FrlendM To-Day.

WHAT HASTHS WASTED. And His Grandmother Let Him Have It for All It Was Worth. Detroit Free Press. : ii ' ' At the D. & M. depot the 'other day was a family of seven or eight people waiting for the train to go west. One of the boys, who was about ten years of age, had a fit of the sulks, and he did several little things to attract general attention. The head of the family was a grandmother, gray and crinkled, but yet very sprightly. The father had to go out to see about the baggage, and grandma was heard to say to her daughter: . "Eliza, that boy F.astus Is just achin' for a lickin,' and you ought -to give it to him." "Hush," whispered the daughter. , "I can't whip him with all thesa people around us." Two or three minutes later Rastus pinched one of his brothers and got up a fresh howl, and grandma looked at him over her spectacles and said: "Boy, you kesp right on and see where you 'Will end. Your mother is afraid of the people around here, but I ain't. When a child is achin' for a lickin he orter have it, no matter w here he is or who's lookin' on." Rastus was very quiet for five minutes, and then he bit his sister Sally, who yelled at the top of her voice. "Eliza, are you going to licit hat boy?" demanded the grandmother as she rose up. The daughter tried to hush her up again, but the old lady said: "He oughter bin licked afore we left home yesterday, but you and John is so opposed to puttln" your fool: down. That boy will come to the gallus If he isn't controlled."

She laid it on with a whack! -whaekl whack! which echoed through the room, and when, she dropped him she said to tho smiling crowd around her: :- "There! That's what he wanted, and he won't make any more trouble for three days! 1 don't care if you are all lookin' and titterin' and makln' fun. I say thei a ain't but one way to bring up children.

Dr. Talmage at last is to succeed In his purpose and to become a preacher in New York city and absolutely indepsndent. Two or three years ago the experiment was made cf bringing Lr. Talmage to the Academy of Music to preach Sunday evening ermons, and he drew a great congregation. That sstlsned somo of those who have been anxious to bring Dr. Talmage to New York that he could maintain a great indenendent congregation here very much. as Professor Swing did in Chicago. ProDe the- Academy of Music as a temple, and to preach one sermon upon Sunday there, and a sufficient guarantee for renumeration equivalent to the salary he was receiving as pastor of the Brooklyn Tabernacle was also promised. Talmage, however, did not see his way clear at that time to make this negotiation. He Is now able to do tt. and it is announced that he will preach every , Sunday afternoon at the Acatsemy of Music, ? and those who are behind this undertaking will rely upon the collections that will be taken up for the money to pay the expenes. While Dr. Talmage Bays that his mission is to preach the gospel, nevertheless he is making arrangements for more extensive literary Aork than he has ever done, and perhaps lor a wider nUd of lecturing. He is the greatest money-maker upon the lecture platform, and he could easily afford to deliver his lectures In the Academy of Music for nothing, alnce they are bought by a syndicate which at on time certainly paid him as much as J10.009 a year for the right of publication.
