Jo?eph Hart and Carrie De Mar and their company played at English's Opera House last night a farce with many songs in it, called "Foxy Grandpa." Mr. Hart wasthe grandfather, an agile old person with lots of money and a d?sire to please his two tricky grand.sons. He came near being caught by an Italian woman that sought all hU money and prot several hundred dollars of it, but, a? the keeper of Bosco, who eats 'em alive (meaning snakes), said In crying" the features of his show in the second act. Grandpa became an educated lobster and fooled the lady and her three troubador brothers by shipping them off with an impersonator made up in duplicate of tho foxy grandparent. The fun was not of scintillating kind, and at times tho entertainment was dull Indeed. The merit of the show lay in its fast movement, and a few of the songs and dances were well done, though nothing elaborate Ir the way of ensembles was at-tt-mpted. the chorus being too rmall for that. The brightest bit was that of Clifton Crawford, who. playing the lover to Grandpa's ward, went to the lakeside to gather water Hilles for her, and returned with a terrible, cold to lay the flowers at his sweetheart's feet and sneeze out an appropriate speech. Miss He Mar, who is a nervously quick Soubrette, was much fresher than her consort. Mr. Hart, who not only had let his well-worn ways sutllce. but kept the "Funny Family" song that he and Miss De Mar used persistently when they were in vaudeville. The boys were played brightly by Georgia Mack and Uobbie lierry, and In the little singing they did the suspicion arose that if they were given more songs they would have made the other and older members of th company seem out of their class. The show falls short of the class of patronage it is bidding for. and is somewhat better than the musical farces offered at the lower-priced theaters. A performance to-night will close the engagement. The Vaudeville nt the (iranil. In the bill of vaudevile at the Grand Opera house this week four comic sketches are offered, and one of them.

"On the Stroke of Tvele" at Park. Villainy reaches almost its limit in the nulodnima 'On tho Stroke of Twelve." which opened yesterday at the Park Theater. William I. Ingram, as James Horton, the schemer, portrays the wicked character to its fullest extent. It seems that the very air he breathes is polluted with diabolical schemes in which he revels. Each character in this piece is of such Intensity as to excite the audience. One. an adventuress, already married to the villain, becomes the bigamous wife of Henry P.Utledge. a millionaire. H. ii. Thomas assumes the dual role of Henrv Kutledge and Van Dyke, a convict. As Henry Kutledge. a feeble old man, he has iittle opportunity to showpower, but i:i Ids later role, that of the convict who has been driven insane by the machiations of the sche:r.er Horton, he acts, with high sensationalism. One of the good features of the show is Alex. Carr's work as Moses Levy. Jack liutledge and Oeorge Bainbridge. by J. palliar Noa and Jefferson Osbourne. are very dramatic heroes. Warden Hawkins, of the penitentiary, by Walter Damange, is. of course, in a position where he can be of service to the two prisoners, Bainbridge and Kutledge. and by his open-hearted declarations to care for the two prisoners he win the applause of the house. His deputy warden, Mr. Dole, who is employed by Horton see that the two young men conlined are treated cruelly, has a make-up which marks his character without his uttering words. During the second act one's mind is relieved of the burden of the plot by banjo players, by John It. Mack as Janper, the colored servant, and some clever comedy by Frank Carroll, who acts Fat. another servant. The engagement is for three days. llHrry Ilrynnt nt the Empire. A surprise was given to the patrons of the Empire Theater yesterday In the act of the Chicks, a man and a woman, who have a clever comedy sketch, which was not on the programme. It was their first appearance in this city and the- take the plate of La Crede and Raymond, who left Harry Hryant's troupe In Chicago. Their sketch Is full of clean fun. The wind-up with lightning crayon work is above the average in that line. The show opens with a burlesque entitled "Captain Beans of the Mule Marines' A fortunate thing it is that Harry Bryant does not usurp the main characters. The piece Is nonsensical, no doubt being meant for that, but is full of pretty music and comic lines. In the olio Lew Palmer perpetrates on the audience his imitations of the farm yard, which have grown musty with age. The Perry and Burns Trio is one of the good features of the olio. The act is full of comedy and singing. Bryant and Savilie follow with their musical act, which has' undergone some changes since seen here last year. The Two Judges have an acrobatic act that has been seen here lefore, but nevertheless continues to please. Tillie Cohen is billed with a plekinniny, but the latter was eliminated before the company reached this city. Miss Cohen's singing was well received despite her handicap. The performance closes with another burletta, which is in a new dress, but is aged. Sir Henry Irving' Arrlren. NEW YORK, Oct. 14. Among the passengers who arrived to-day on the steamer Minnehaha, from London, were Sir Henry Irving, Miss Ellen Terry. Laurence Irving and the rest of th Irving company, sixtyeight persons in all. They will begin their American tour in i few days. GRAU OPERA COMPANY. Tto Performances in This City on Dee. 11 Thomas Orchestra. John II. Stem announced yesterday that arrangements have been perfected by which Maurice Grau's Metropolitan English Grand Opera. Company, direct from the Metropolitan Opera House in New York city, will visit Indianapolis Dec. 14, presenting in Tomlinson Hall two of the most brilliant operas in their repertory. There will be a matinee and night performance. Mr. Stem has gone to New York to arrange the cast and other details of these great productions. The company will bring full complements of scenery, anci the vast stage of Tomlinson Hall will be adjusted to accommodate the varied settings. The rearrangement of the stage will, it is said, entail an expenditure of $1,0' A Tho boldness of Mr. Stem's artistic plans for the new musical and operatic season may be seen in the fact that on Dee. 16. only two clays later, he is to bring Tjheodoro Thomas's Chicago Orchestra to this city for a concert, which will be strengthened by the engagement of a noted soloist. SYMPHONY REHEARSAL. Orchestra to Assemble Thin Morning for the Ftrmt Time Thi Sennn.

.-.'" - .3 TILLBY, U. S. N. HELEN KELLER'S SUMMER IIEIt VISIT TO evagi:lie-s l.wu AMI THE WELCOME AT HALIFAX. She Went Abonrd the Indiana and Made an Impression on Lieut Itahy Her Joy on the Water. Boston Transcript. Members of the royal family could have no more flattering reception than did Helen Keller on her visit to Halifax this summer. It was the first time she had ever been out of the United States, and the freshness of it all made keen impressions on a mind that is filled with imagination. She was quick to detect the change of atmosphere In a far land, and spoke of its coolness so refreshing and bracing. The journey was taken shortly after Kadcliffe College closed, and Miss Keller hurried away without finding out whether she had passed her examinations or not. It was the end of her first year in eojkge, and many a girl would have wondered and worried about her fate all summer. Not so Helen, however, for she is a philosopher, and never worries about anything. Nevertheless, she was delighted upon her return home to receive the long belated letter telling that she had passed in everything. It has been a summer of activity, and books have been left unopened. The effect of the outdoor life is easily apparent in Miss Keller's appearance, for she has returned strong and brown and enthusiastic. A greater part of the days were spent upon the water, and, in her own words, "It was delightful to sail in the shadow of his Majesty's ships." It was the realization of long-cherished hopes to go to Evangeline land, and Grand-Pro was one of the first places visited. In recalling the memorable feeenes she impulsively used the words of Longfellow, lor, while she can neither seo nor hear, she has been taught to articulate, repeating, as she made an outward gesture, "Vast meadows stretched to tho eastward. Giving the village its name, and pastures to Hock without number," and then she spoke of the ancient dykes, and added in the words of the poem: "Dykes that the hands of the farmers had raised with labor incessant shut out the turbulent tide." Once, at a reception, some one heard her speak of the poem "Evangeline" and asked her who wrote it. Instantly she answered, straight to the point, "Why. a man who is as well known as your own King Edward himself." Who could have made a keener thrust? ABUNDANCE OF ATTENTION. The official people of tho land vied with each other in showing siiss Keller attention. She was the honored guest at the commencement exercises of the Halifax Institute for the Deaf and Dumb, and made the occasion memorable with a little speech that was as bright as it was sweet. In reviewing this part of her visit she said: "The institutions in Halifax are line, and that shows that the people of Halifax are generous and public spirited." The public gardens especially pleased htr, lor she is a true lover of nature, and she smiled as she clasped her hands and remembered, "They were beautiful, for they had natural brooks, splendid beds of carnations and roses and grand trees." No girl in the land is more patriotic than this one who never truly saw the Hag, and when me Fourth of July came she, as she expresses it, "simply made her Halifax mends buy some American Hags and fling them to the breeze." A brilliant bit of description was her recital of a storm, the worst she was ever out In on the oceans She began with. "I spent much time on the water, rowing and sailing, and drinking in the fresh, salt air, and it was a joy to bound over the great waves." and with the words "great waves" her shapely white hands swept a graceful curve with forceful abandon. Then sitting alertly erect and freely gesturing she told how one Saturday she sailed down the Halifax harbor to witness a regatta. "The harbor was jammed full of yachts and small crafts in the beginning." she said, "and wc had great difficulty in getting around. When tne storm broke all the little boats except ours scudded home. Tho waves were so h:gh that we slid straight down into the trough, the boat lay way over on one side" -.Miss Keller suited the action to the word "and tho water lifted itself over the gunvale and came into the boat." At this point the pitch of her voice raised, and there was great excitement pictured on her face. "I was sorry to them take down the sail and go home under the jib for I exulted in the storm. A Viking could not hr.ve been happier." Miss Sullivan, her companion, said that MUs Keller was tene with exciUment tiiat day. and thai when, the waves tossed the I oat the highest she laughed with all her heart and gavo herself to the wild spirit c l the hour. "Outs was the only little boat on the water," Miss Keller said exultantlv. and it is no wonder that all the big ciaft, and even the gunboat Destroyer saluted the fearless girl as she tossed on tht wave.- and lav ghed. She was not unmindful of the danger of what was going on. for .'he knew by the mighty vibrations of the waves and the booming guns that she wak liing no common experience. A picture for a painter the girl mtst have b:n, dressed ;.ll in wnite. with a dash of red on her hat. s iting as proudly erect and watching th tattle of the elements as triumphantly as ever Und:ne could have dune. INTENSE ENJOYMENT. T'iis pcetlcal maiden found much to interest her on every side this summer, and she loves to tell about what charmed her in Halifax. "The chief glory of the city." she said, "is its hnrbor, but it has many other attractions there is a beautiful wooded park, long drives and walk through the tres, where I enjoyed the soft green light that came streaming through the branches, and the splendid view of the harbor and the rock Islands." One unac

1

quainted with the girl would ask. "How could she s.e the soft, green light and the harbor view?" When she walks In the woods she stretches out her hands and ttels the warmth of the sunshine, ami to her the light of the woods is always soft and green, and the harbor view is real to her, for she lived her life into it. When isked what she did at a picnic that she attended at York, where there is one ot the strongest fortifications on the continent, she quickly answered. "We did the usual things ate. drank and were merry." The new guns fascinated her, so mysteriously did they appear and disippear, and hhe "speaks of them as "shining." for they are smooth. "1 was surprist d." she said, "to lind how rauch I enjoyed the military atmosphere. I was never tired of watching ihe Tommies in their red coats and while helmets as they came out of chapel. I could feel the tramp of their feet and the roll of the drums." When the Indiana visited Halifax Miss Keller was invited to go on board, and Lieutenant James J. Raby did the honors of the day. In a letter which speaks of that visit he writes: "It was an honor to show Miss Keller over the Indiana, and the verv happiest incident of the cruise for me." Her delight at being aboard was a great pleasure to me, and more than once mv eves filled with tears when I looked at her beautiful face that could not return my gaze. She is a wonderful woman and I was astonished at her knowledge of ships and their appliances. When we showed her the turret she wanted to know where the sighting hood was. 1 had never before known a woman that knew what a sighting hood is, so that you can well Imagine my surprise." When the Spanish war was in full blast Miss Keller first heard from the newspapers of the "sighting hood." and it was ever after her ambition to know for herself what it was. Worthy of Kipling was her description of a grand concert which jvas given to the Governor General, and in summing it up she said: "The grounds were brilliantly decorated with electric lights, flags and Tommies!" The red and white of Tommie's uniform always appealed to her. "They played 'God Save the King' every five minutes and the 'Starspangled Banner' only once, but be sure my heart thrilled that once." WITH MR. AND MRS. BELL. Two weeks of the summer were spent with Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Bell, who have a beautiful home on the mountain Bejnn Bhreagh. which is the Gaelic term for beautiful mountain, overlooking the Bras d'Or. "There," said Miss Keller, "in the words of Milton, "one sees only nature and her fair work woods, brooks, mountain cascades and the wonderful changing sea." She was much interested in Dr. Bell's experiments in his laboratory and his flying kites. "Just think." she said, "I helped him ti3- some kites, and was nearly carried up by one." It was her delight to run with the1 kites, und often she was successful in getting them up. She was able to tell by the feeling of the string whether it would hold or not. "One dav." she relates. "1 said to Dr. Bell. 'Won t this string break?" 'Oh, no,' he said, confidently, 'but in a few moments my fears were realized, and, lo! the string snapped and off went the kite, and poor Dr. Bell stood forlornly looklng after it." After that the doctor always asked Helen if the strings were all right. During her stay there Dr. Bell gav the annual harvest fete. It was held earlier than usual In the season on her account, and she was the queen of the festival. She was told the name of each contestant and his c haracteristic noted. When she am' to award the prizes, to the delight of alt she remembered each name and said something appropriate ab ahe gave the prize into the hand of the winner. One of the experiences she most delights In was when she slept in a house boat which was a mile and a half from any human being, right in the woods of the great Bras d'Or. In her own words, "It was a beautiful moonlight night, a glorious night, and 1 got up early in the morning and took a fine constitutional on deck." In conclusion she said: "Upon our return from Halifax we took one last ramble, one last sail and one last picnic. Then, with a heroic effort, we tore ourselves away from the delights of the summer, and turned our faces homeward and our thoughts collegeward." When the return ship reached Boston harbor Helen was out on the deck, although it was early in the morning, and so vividly did she feel all the passing glory that this is an excerpt from a letter which she wrote describing It: "How beautiful it was. The whole world seemed steeped in beauty; the sea, an ever-changing miracle of loveliness, waited calmly for the sun to come out of the east. " 'Tho wind with wonder whist. Smoothly the waters kissed. Whispering new joys to the wild ocean, AVho now hath quite forgot to rave.' "You remember now the color? warmed and deepened as we watched the beautiful, gold-tinted clouds peacefully take possession of the sky. Then came the sun, gathering the mist into silvery bands, with which he wreathed the islands that lifted their heads out of the purple sea as it passed. A mighty tide of life and joy followed fn its track. The ocean awoke, ships and boats of every description sprang from the waves as if by magic, and as we sighted MInot's ledge light a great slxmastel schooner with snowy sails passed us like a beautiful winged spirit, bound for some unknown haven beyond the bar. lov delightful it was to see MInot's ledge m the morning light. There one expects to see tho ocean lashed into fury by the splendid resistance of the rocks, but as we passed the 'light' seemed to rise out of the tranquil water, like Venus from her morning bath. It seemed so nar I thought I could touch it. btit I am rather glad I did not. for perhaps the lovely Illusion would have been destroyed had I examined it more closely." It will be seen by this letter, and also from every conversation, that Miss Keller s mind is saturated with poetry and joy. She never expresses herself in prosaic manner. She has never attempted to write poetry, but all her prose Is poetical. This past year, since entering Radcliffe, she has made great progress In mental development, and the beauty of her womanhood is shown in the tribute which her companion pays lo her. Miss Sullivan has been with her from those earliest days of chaos when she could not express herself in any way. Now, when she is a college girl, versed in higher mathematics Greek.

Morton, once a Vice President of the United States, and Count Boson de Perigord, son of the Duke of Talleyrand-Peri-gord, married last week in Eondon. The American girl had money, the groom a title, and the union, we hope, will be a happy one. The marriage of this copule serves to recall to mind one of the remarkable men of the past and first quarter of this century. The first Talleyrand, who won for himself more than passing notice, was the greatest of his name. Born lame, but born first, Talleyrand the Great was heir to the family estates and title. His family, howevfr, hated him for being a cripple, and drove him Into the church. In the church he won his way quickly and threw off the black cassock of the prfVst for the purple robes of the bishop. He was a bishop when France, after struggling under the grinding oppression of three centuries, tore loose everj' restriction of law and began a war against society and a war against the world. Talleyrand threw away the bishop's staff and aligned himself with Mirabeau and followed him and others through that chaos of blood and death called the revolution. He had all the cunning of his confederates, but never for a moment in the rapid changes going on around him did Talleyrand lose his supreme self-control. Though hundreds daily were sent to the guillotine he calmly discussed financial and educational reform in the Assembly. One of the moving spirits of the revolution. Talleyrand maintained a reserve with his associates. He delivered carefully prepared essays on the rights of the people. liberty, equality and fraternity, but he remained in habits and manners an aristocrat. His refinement came near costing Talleyrand his life, but when danger came he left Paris, not as an exile, but as a diplomat to England. From England he Journeyed to the United States and did not return to Fiance until Napoleon had made himself absolute master of the country and its people, brought order out of confusion, had made France a world power and was preparing to dispute the mastery of land and sea with all rulers of nations. In 172'. Talleyrand became minister of foreign affairs. Napoleon had unbounded confidence in his ability, but did not trust him. Talleyrand had the profoundest respect for Napoleon's military genius, but could not forgive him for assuming the manners of those burn In the purple. Each, however, bad a common love and common hatred. They loved France and huted her enemies. He served Napoleon faithfully until 1S)7. In the marvelous successes at arms and In diplomacy during hit association with Napoleon Talleyrand contributed as much toward mak-

ing France powerful as did the battalions of the first consul and Emperor. The students of Naponeonic history marvel at two incidents in the career of this enigma of the ages. The sentimental hold to the theory that Napoleon's good fortune deserted him when he divorced Josephine. The more practical mark the beginning of the end of his career when !vj broke with Talleyrand. Talleyrand did not agree with Napoleon's polity toward England, and did not approve his ideas in regard to Spain. He saw nothing but ruin for France In th temporary alliance formed with Russia. In his retirement he predicted the downfall of his former master. Indeed with a thrift of intellect he began negotiations with the Bourbons when these weak scions of royalty had no man who had walked booted and spurred through the halls of their ancestors. But the end came as Talleyrand predicted, and when Napoleon gazed from the cliff's of St. Helena into the boundless seas, hopeless, inert and eating out his heart because of the petty restrictions of a small-minded gaoler Talleyrand was playing the supreme role oFhis wonderful career. The European powers were jealous of one another, and instead of scourging France for her devotion to Napoleon he played one against the other with such cunning that France lost nothing and resumed her place in the family of friendly powers with the prestige of a conquering nation. Napoleon ended his fitful career at St. Helena in 1S-1. Ten years later Talleyrand was as prominent in the European diplomatic circle as when he could reinforce his demands with half a million unbeaten soldiers under the command of an all-con-ouering leader. Probably the greatest triumph of his career, next to that of beating away the hungry wolves who were lunging at the throat of his country at the congress of Vienna, was the negotiation of a treaty of alliance with England during the reign of Louis Philippe, the King who was once a Kentucky backwoodsman. This triumph he won In the evening of his life. In all the history of the world there was never a greater master of the art of statecraft than Talleyrand. But. like Napoleon, like Marlborough, like Frederick the CJrcat. none followed bearing Talleyrand's name giving It additional luster. He was the first and last of his race who was truly great. WHAT IS A DRUNK? Variant Definition of n Three-Sheeln-in-the-WInd Condition. Brooklyn Eagle. What Is it to be drunk? If we ask the W. C. T. U. we shall be told that to drink is to be drunk, and that as it is a sin to steal a pin. so it is just as great a crime against society to sip a cocktail as it is to go to a Tammany clambake, with everything that ;he latter implies. Yet, if we ask certain old stagers who do sip cocktails, and who from outward appearance and inward sensation are neither better, worse nor otherwise from having done so, we shall be told that one cocktail no more produces drunkenness than one swallow makes a summer. Several swallows of Tennessee whisky will produce a very sultry summer In the internal economics of the patient, but then, It is not necessary to take several swallows. Eighteen or twenty generally suflice. Golden Rule Jones, he of Toledo, once told his policemen not to arrest people who were merely happy. When a man had dined tfo well, as the French put It, he was to be assisted to his home, jf he could remember where it was. And this is the right way to deal with forgetful persons. So long as they are not obstreperous, and do not viola I? the laws and heavy ordinance, they merely encumber the courts and stations, delay the trial of important cases and keep policemen I'm in getting off to breakfast. Once safely landed inside their doors, their wives can be trusted to do all the rest and in this clso, rest is not a verb. The burning question is up again In Boston. That town has an alderman whose name Is Brick, related without a doubt to Jefferson Brick, of ancient fame. Mr. Brick, being alderman, has certain privileges that are denied to humbler citizens. Why otherwise would one heap upon himself the heavy and various responsibilities of aldermanship? Among those duties is that of not being arrested when one does things for which other people sometimes are arrested. Among the privileges is that of dallying over the Bass when It Is red and moveth itself at a cost of 13 cents a mug. And they have a judge, too. in Boston who has as high and brave a notion of nldermanic privilege as any alderman could have. Says he to Alderman Brick and his captors: "A man is not drunk unless, he is overcome, stupefied or frenzied by the use of liquor." And Mr. Brick insists" that be was not any of these. A police captain therefore expre.se himself as stumped by thij this is in Boston "crassitudinous insinuation respecting the right of constabulary intervention in instances where toxic tendencies are publicly disclosed by aldermen." Under the judge's ruling, he adds, it will be possible to arrest only one in fifty of the people who are now gathered into the fold, and the only man who can break into a police station hereafter on any absurd admission of drunkenness must bring a doctor's certificate or come on a shutter. And he Is afraid that if he does not arrest some of the men and women, who. under the judge's ruling, juv to be viewed without alarm, as epileptic s. lunatics, hysterics, apoplectics and aldermen, there will be complaint from the W. C. T. U. that he is not doing his work, and he will be subjected to charges similar to those that so dreadfully hurt the f -flings of the Tammany police. Well. then, what are you going to do about it? There mu.-t be an international system whereby the police can be enabled to know when a man is drunk and when he is merely celebrating. The lust way

will bo to send the cop to a medical school for a couple of years so that he will become exiert in diagnosis and will know how to take a pulse and temperatures and smell a breath and distinguish champagno from paresis. Without thi training It will be almost impossible to justify the arrest of an alderman in Boston.

A short time afterwards General Sherman went n board, and soon after disappeared inside the stateroom.
