Tim Murphy and Eorothy Sherrod, In their ppe?jranco, last nlsty, in "A Bachcelor's Romance," at Kngiish's Opera House, were favored with everything to Kladden the hearts of the theatrical stars, except a large audience. There were ovations for them after each act, and an Immense bouquet for Miss Sherrod, but the audience was sadly out of proportion to the merit of both company and production. More people saw Mr. Murphy last night than last season, when he appeared In "The Carpet Bagger' and it is safe to predict that If he had made his engagement for two nights Instead of one, he would have been greeted by a large audience to-night. There were mingled notes of pathos and triumph in hl3 voice, when ho said, in one of his curtain speeches, "We Intend to keep on coming until we conquer the reople of Indianapolis" pathos over his cavalier treatment, and triumph because he could read in his enthusiastic reception a "turning of the tide." Indianapolis people, it has been aid, are cold, but they warmed up to Tim Murphy and his clever little wife last night, as they warm up to few people of the stage. The greater part of "A Bachelor's Ttomance' 1 comedy of tbo most delicious, refreshing variety, but occasionally a v,oin of the tendere&t pathos is struck, as. for instance, the story of old man Mulberry's poverty, and Martin's crowning failure to win the prize offered for a story. One who has not seen this plendid old play might wonder at its longevity. An evening's acquaintance with Us charming fidelity to real life and Its exquisite love stories for it contains several will reveal the secret. Tlays like "A Bachelor's Romance" are bound to be revived again and yet again, for their sharp contrast with the hollow artificialities of present-day life malte of them excellent refuges to which to turn when ennui creeps over ore. To hit through this play particularly when it is interpreted as it was last night is to make one feci a better man or woman. It !s not necessary to analyze the work of each member of Mr. Murphy's splendid supporting company, con.tlng: it does, of such well-known actors as William 11. Pascoe. IVrcy Brooke. J. Tester WalUck. Kred A. Thomson. J. It. Armstrong. Dorothy Sherrod, Louise Thorndyke tfouclcault. Fanny Addison Pitt and I'thel Strickland. A star could scarcely be provided with a more adequate support. A word of special praise is due Miss Sherrod. The rapid stride made by this young ctresa in the. past few seasons has brought her to a position very near the front rank. There was a rare delicacy about her work last night, which has not heretofore been noticed. 'Incidentally, It Is gratifying to note that Miss Sherrod (Mrs. Murphy) Is accumulating beauty, as well as histrionic success. The production furnished Mr. Murphy by Manager Berger is thorough In every detail. Two prettier scenes than those rt the second and fourth acts especially the latter, a charming rustic scene could fcarcely bo Imagined. "Still Water- linn Deep" nt firand. 'Still Waters Hun Deep." Tom Taylor's society drama written in the year 1853. was revived by the ftock company at the Grand Opera House last nif?ht and proved a strong attraction. The plot is well conceived and cleverly constructed. The story of the play deals with an episode that has, since Mr. Taylor first employed it, been often Used in society dramas. This Is the Introduction of a polished, well-dressed oundrt-l Into the company of honest and icspectable people, the futility of his efforts st roguery and. in the tlnal act. his complete discomfiture. The motive running through "Still Waters Hun Deep" s practically the same that achieved such m.trvelou succe for Mr. Train's Social Highwayman." Miss Linthlcum. Mr. Flood and Mr. Ktrkland carried th three prominent roles, those of Mrs. SternhoM. Mr. Mlldmav and Captain Hawkley, in u satisfactory manner, especially Mr. Kirklnd in the smooth villainous character of Hawksley. Hiss iail as Mrs. Mildmay and Mr. Frohoff as Mr. Potter appeared to decidedly bad advantage contracted with the ether principals. There was noticeable last

night an unusual hesitancy in delivery of lines, but this was explained by the fact that the parts were not distributed until late last week, giving a shorter time than usual for study. The scenery was of the customary elegance. "Still Waters Hun Deep" was preceded by a clever, old-time farce in one act. entitled "Box and fox." the main characters in which were played with delightful dash and vim by Mr. Reynolds and Miss Maynurd. The double bill will continue to be presented all week, with matinees to-morruw and Saturday. 'The Ansel of Hie Alley." The Angel of the Alley." the attraction at the Park for the first thvee days of this week, is a drama well worth the price of admission. Several of the situations afford opportunities for some superior acting, and the excellent cast, with Mr. Charles J. Swlckard in the leading role, acquit themselves very creditably. The scenery and effects with which the piece Is staged aid materially in the presentation, as they lead to a realism worthy of commendation, and which it would not otherwise possess. The story depicted la that of a young cavalry officer who falls Into the hands of scoundrels, and is finally falsely accused of murder. Tie is about to be electrocuted., when he is miraculously saved, and retribution overtakes his would-be murderers. Mr. Swickard's acting in the electrocution scene is very good, and the large audience, yesterday afternoon, roundly applauded his efTort. Others deserving of mention are Miss Carina Jordan, as "Ethel Sheridan. "Angel of the Alley;" Arthur- K. Sprague, as Henry Morgan, a gambler; Miss Lilly Harper, as Nancy Oliver, a Bowery' product, and others. The piece Is enlivened with new and catchy specialties.

The Royal Ittirlesquers. A big audience was present at the Umpire Theater yesterday afternoon at the opening performance of Clark Brothers Royal Burlesque Company. The performance is clean in spots and the company presents some good specialties. The performance opens with an olio and closes with a burletta in which the entire company takes part. Among the features of the olio are Merrltt and Rozella In an entertaining acrobatic act; IMward Bixley and Florence Hughes as "The Tramp and the Tough Girl," an act which makes a hit; Campbell and Caulfleld. Irish comedians; the twelve Mignonettes in an electrical act which is a novelty; Anna Morris, a clever vocalist with some new songs; Kelly and Adams, Coulter and Starr and Derenda brothers. The latter are accomplished in Indian club juggling. Following the olio comes a series of moving pictures. In the burletta Ed Bixley furnishes most of the comedy and Anna Morrl3 and May Adams do some first-class singing. The company will be here all week withtwo performances daily. Rostock "Winter Circus. Frank C. Bostock hopes to be able to open his Indianapolis Zoo In the Cyclorama building next Friday night. Two carloads of animals have arrived this week, and several carloads are on the way from Atlantic City, where he has maintained a show throughout the summer. The collection already here Includes twelve lions, seven leopards, two panthers, one jaguar, one elephant, three camels, one dromedary and one hybrid. The animals seen in Indianapolis during the carnival will not Join the Zoo until January. i"Foxey Quiller" Presented. WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.-The Klaw & Erlanger Opera Company made Its appearance at tho Columbia Theater, to-night, presenting De Koven & Smith's new comic opera, "Foxy Quiller," with Jerome Sykes as the star, and a cast and ensemble of 123 people. The new opera takes the character of Foxy Quiller, which Mr. Sykes made the feature of "Tho Highwayman" several years ago, and introduces it into an entirely new work. The first act Is laid in England, and here Mr. De Koven has followed . closely the English song and choral forms. For the last two acts, however, he has written in the pure Italian- school. Mr. Sykes made a hit, and Miss Helen Bertram, Miss Grace Cameron, Adolph Zink and others were given a share of the honors. Mr. Reginald De Koven, the composer, was, to-day, thrown from his bicycle, while coasting down a hill, and was unconscious for some time. A physician sewed up a bad wound In his head, but he was present, to-night, to witness the Performance of his newest work. Notes of the Stasre. Mildred Holland Is again announced as contemplating a starring tour in "The Power Behind the Throne." XXX Howell Hansell, formerly leading man of the local stock company, is member of Henry E. Dixey's supporting company in "The Adventures of Francois." XXX "The Flaming Arrow," which will play a three days' engagement at the Tark, beginning Thursday afternoon, is a melodrama having much to do with Indians and the claim is made that many real Indians arc carried with the production. XXX "Grierson's Way," Henry V. Esmond's new play, has been secured by Julia Marlowe for production in New York next spring. Mr. Esmond wrote Nat Goodwin's "When We Were Twenty-one." which is to be seen at English's shortly for the second time. XXX Primrose & Dockstader's take-off on the presidential candidates four years ago is recalled by the anouncement of their engagement at English's Saturday afternoon end night of the present week. Considerable curiosity is being expressed as to the point of attack these eminent funmakers will select this campaign against which to direct their cross tiro of harmless ridicule. Scats are on sale for both performances. xxx Mrs. Flske and her husband, Harrison Gray Flske, editor of the Dramatic Mirror, are congratulating themselves upon having won two notable legal victories within a very short time. The first was the securing of an injunction against Gertrude Coghlan. forbidding her to appear in her version of "Becky Sharp," which was claimed to be pirated from the one used by Mrs. Flske. The second victory was the dissolving of an injunction in a Denver court hich forbade Mrs. Flske playing a week's engagement at the Denver Theater a popular priced house. The latter Injunction was obtained by the theatrical syndicate. In whose theaters Mrs. Fiskc docs not play. Whenever she cannot secure a firstclass theater in which to appear in any city, she engages a popular priced house, and thus far has experienced no trouble in obtaining full prices tor her performance, regardless of the rates ordinarily charged.

OVERSTREET HEARD

ADDRESSES AX EXTIU SIASTIC 31EETix g at'soutiipout. The Im uc of the Campaign Presented to the People In n Forceful Manner. NOON . MEETING IN THIS CITY E3IPLOYES OP THE II I ft FOIII SHOPS ADDRESSED BRIEFLY. Mnch Satisfaction Expressed Over Representative Overstreet's Dignified Canvass. At Southport last night one of the biggest political meetings that ever occurred in the town as held by the Republicans Representative Overstreet was the speaker. Prior to the speaking there was a street parade in which the First Voters drum eorpn, of this city, took part, with other organizations, including a. detachment of Rough Riders. Teoplo were there from Acton, Bridgeport, Mooresvllle and Johnfcon county. It wa3 said this was the largest crowd that ever congregated in Southport. One of the features of the rneetfng waii the music rendered by a glee club of twenty-four younjfcjwomen. C. E. Hardest, of Southport, presided and introduced Mr. Overstreet, who discussed all the issues of the campaign. He began by paying a high tribute to the memory of John Sherman, speaking of Mr. Sherman's record in promoting financial legislation. This led to a discussion of the present financial questions, which Mr. Overstreet ably handled. He then took up the subject of militarism, and explained that tho present United States army consists of only 63,000 men. He based this assertion on a statement made by th2 adjutant general. "The army," Mr. Overfetreet said, "is necessarily formed by vol-' tnteer offers frotn men who are willing to go in the army. uVo man is impressed, and the army Is made up of men who ask to be mustered in. They come from American homes and from under the teachings of American mothers, and when they are discharged they return to these same homes. An army which obtains Its recruits from such sources can never be a menace to American institutions." Mr. Overstreet also discussed the question of the acquisition of territory and pointed out that the opposition that has arisen in each Instance demonstrates that the opposition of Mr. Bryan and his party to-day is no greater than the opposition which had been made on former occasions when territory was acquired by the United States. The speaker quoted from the remarks of Senator White, of Delaware, at the time the Louisiana purchase was under consideration, In which Senator White said: "We have already territory enough and when I contemplate the evils that may arise to these States from this intended incorporation of Louisiana into the Union I would rather see it given to France or to any other nation on earth upon the mere condition that no citizen of the United States should ever settle within Its limits, than to see the territory sold for $100.000.000 and w retain the sovereignty." Mr. Overstreet also took up the charge ot Mr. Bryan, that the administration gives recognition to slavery In the Sulu archipelago, and quoted from the message of President McKinley and also from his order through the War Department, conveying the distinct statement to the Sultan of Sulu that tho United States could not in any way authorize or give consent to the existence of slavery In the Sulu archipelago, "a thing which is made impossible by the thirteenth amendment to the Constitution of the United States." IIHL.D A. XOOX MEETING. Iteprmentatlve Overstreet at the Shelby-Street Shops. Representative Overstreet attended a noon meeting yesterday of the employes of the Shelby-street shops of the Big Four. All of the men of the shops were present and seemed to take an interest in tho rpeech. Mr. Overstreet was introduced by Hiram Harris, one of the shop foremen. The talk, which was necessarily briefMr. Overstreet waiting until the men had finished their dinners before beginningwas principally along the line of trusts. Mr. Overstreet explained the attitude of the two great political parties on the question of trusts, and admitted that the problem of how to Fettle the question is a difficul one. He said it was the duty of the voter to decide which party was best able to take care of the question. In deciding this question the voter should take into consideration the past record of each party and their present attitude on this question Mr. Overstreet pointed out that in dealing with trusts care would have to be taken to avoid crippling legitimate concerns. It requires large capital, he as, serted. to carry on some large concerns, and the evil arises from these large combinations of capital when the concerns destroy competition or arbitrarily advance prices. Mr. Overstreet called the attention of his hearers to the Increase In business and to the necessity of continuing the present policy. The Republican party kept its promise four years ago, Mr. Overstreet said, in protecting American industries and in the continuance of the gold standard. After addressing the men Mr. Overstreet met each one personally. The men who arranged the meeting assured him that it had been highly satisfactory to them and they believed It had been productive of a great deal of good. A TRAGEDY OF ERRORS. Annie nronarh and Jefferson Skaggs In Critical Condition. Annie Brough, of 1023 East Washington street, was yet critically ill last night from injuries received Saturday night. She was only semi-conscious and unable to tell in what manner she was injured. She was found at Illinois and Washington streets about midnight, and it was thought she had fallen from a car. She was taken by Dr. Kretz, of the City Dispensary, to 550 East Washington street, the restaurant and saloon ot Benjamin Kersting, where she said she was a cortk. Drs. Eisenbeiss and Karchncr attended her and they were told she had fallen from a street car. The saloon of Kersting was the scene of a tight Saturday night, and Jefferson Skaggs, of Sb7 River avenue, was struck over the head with a beer mallet, inflicting injuries which may cause his death. Kersting was stabbed by Skaggs twice In the arm. Skagps said the trouble originated over an argument as to payment for a glass of beer. Kersting said the trouble was on account of interference with the cook. The police were with difficulty able to learn any of the facts in the case. Still After the fM0. The hearing of the case brought by H. T. White, of South Bend, owner of Searchlight, the pacing horse, against the Indiana State Board of Agriculture, before the Board of Appeals of the American Trotting Association, will come up. in Chicago. Dec. 4. The trouble grows out of the match race between Searchlight and Anaconda, during the State fair. Searchlight won, and was given 11.3. and White has since demanded that he be paid the entire purse. Mt. or s(H) more, as Anaconda was distanced. Secretary Downing says the State board will try to show there was collusion between the drivers and owners of the two horses, and a conspiracy to get the entire amount of the purse, when the contract stated that ) was not to be paid If cither horse was

distanced. He says neither horse was driven to win, and Anaconda was distanced in the second heat through a mistake on the part of the two drivers. GUN CLUB TOURNAMENT.

Dowie, says a London dispatch to the Herald, attempted to convince a refractory audience in Holborn Town Hall that England had much to learn from America.

V. Powderly, commissioner of Immigration, to keep hands off these pilgrims. He told me that ZIon will be permitted to land all Imported labor it wants to in the United States."
