In “Peaceful Valley” it with the fidelity of au artist. Of greater maitnitude, it rave to “Ariatocracy' much of the intensity of interest which that drama awakened. Yet because founded on a livintr and active principle, it seems still fresh and potent when met uoditenised in "Brother John.” We see first life in the simplicity of • country village. A family which has accumolated enough to rest horn its former arduous labor is beginning to mistake quietude for monotony. Then follows a visit to the city, where, at a fashionable watering place, these ambitious but misguided people are seen in all the wretchedness of their attempt “to keep np appearances.” In the third stage of the story they are at home again, outwardly unchanged, but with the spirit of contentment reigning within. The truth is, a play Pf this sort, even w hen poorly written, points a homely moral which all like to hear, and as "Brother John” is, in the mpin, exceedingly well written, the imagination of the auditor responds in sympathy. The play is in /our acts, fwo being devoted to the second phase of the story, i. c., fashionable life as seen by the rural visitors. The third and fourth acts have great strength. So strong are they, indeed, that one is likely to forget the somewhat incouwquantial and episodic nature of the first two. Miss Morton's characters are in the first act, scarcely more than placed, as tne ehessmen m the game over which Brother John and Hetty had so charming a love •cene, might be put iu position preliminary to a move. In the second let they begin to move, and gradually to define the purpose of their beiug. By the time the third act is reached, the action becomes brisk and its trend sure and evilent. The characters are played against sach other with the deftness, the skill and the meaningfulness of a writer long used to dramatic production. From this point to the end there is no halt in the onward tourse. Through situations striking yet leverferced each character is rounded out to the fullness of its attainment in the last

set

One can not take the measure of Miss Morton’s characters on their first entrance. Lines are deepened here and half erased there as the play goes on, just as a portrait painter might alter a face upon the canvas to indicate the effects wrought by passing fears. The way in which the individualitv »f the characters, marked even at tne beginning, is preserved throughout, is unjsuul, considering that the range to which the author has chosen to confine herself is rather limited. The nuriorlty of theater-goers will find "Brother John,” as presented by Mr. Crane tad his company, at the Grand Opera House, greatly to their liking. Mr. Crane’s playing of the 1 principal part is however an assumption rather than an impersonation. He has apparently obtained bis notion of the character by contempiatiag it from without, rather than by identifying himself mentally and emotionally with its ipirit. He does not sufficiently speak "from tne heart out” The play of the facial muscles is an example of this tendency to exterior demonstration prompted mechanically rather than by the emotional impulse of the moment He tacks also the touch of the ideal. Brother John is made too practical. The man as weibfct ht» clothes are toe entirely of the every-day sort. If he were removed a very little from the familiar closeness with which he now comes to us, ennobled without being put upon a pedestal, we should like him better. "Nature should be taken not es a model, but as a key.” At timea Mr. Crane rises to this bight of the character, as at the close of the second act, when, with pathetic earnestness, he announced Brother John’i determination to remain and guard his weak,younger brother. In the third act and in the fourth he several times gave illustration of this higher tide, but he did not act continuously on ibis plan. The women of thli company are all "fair \o look upon.” and generally speaking they wt with intelligence as well as grace. They ire nicely differentiated in those little ibings in which women are so unlike each >ther but which so often escape the glance »f the playwright. Miss Collier gives to the part of Hetty Rolan a maturity and t ripeness most fitting to it and becoming to <he player, though some slight changes in iostume might be suggested which would idd to the expressiveness with which it is aleady given. Her dress in the first act is hardy what the forewoman in a factory would

MARION COUNTY.

Thomas F. Ryan, candidate for the Republican nomination for county clerk, spent the early years of hit life on a farm. Before he was fifteen years old he was doing a man's work. He has been a merchant, a manufacturer and a builder. For thirty years he has been well-known to the business men of Indianapolis. His interests in the enterprises of Indianapolis were varied in 1873 when the financial panic struck the country. He was caught with so many

ic supposed to wear. Of the dance which Hiss Gladys Wallis gave in the third act uuch might be written, and yet not too ouch be a*id. It was instinct with life and leauty; at dainty as an artist’s ideal. Miss iVallis combines a “cluster of little graces” n- her own person. 8hn baa a face and igure of nymph-like delicacy, and dances vith a joyous abandon that makes “each notion seem an echo of the music.” Mr. Wheeloek was at timea scarcely audible, sud acted with a tack of spirit that was hardly to be accounted for. Mr. Backus should give more dignity to the character of Fdward Kidd. The lines of his part need mending in one or

g man of refinement id hardly salute even as Beck Hackett as

"old girl.” Miss Busby is somewhat amateurish, but is capable of great tenderness is in her speech to De Ruyter, when re^, proaching him for his neglect The turn of her neck and the pose of her bead are exquisite. A large audience law the play last night Mr. Crane and the company wore Several times called before the curtain. “Brother John” will be repeated to-night and at the matinee to-mor-rosr. To-morrow night “The Senator” will be given. •, ■ . faodsvllls and Burlesque at the Empire. Florence Miller’s vaudeville company began a three days’ engagement at the Empire Theater yesterday afternoon. Florence » Miller herself is the life of the organisation, sad in her particular specialties reminds sue forcibly of Jarbean. The performances begin with a semi-minstrel show, with four-

Burt Leslie and kl Richards do a funny torn, entitled “The Negro and the Tramp.” Florence Miller reserves herself nntil toward the lest, when she come* on snd sings "A-la-Marguerite,” one of Jarbean’s favorite songs. She received three sr,cores. The Soncrant brothers introduce s novel act. John Soncrant rides an srdinary buggy wheel from a chair placed sn top of two tablet down to the stage, a listance of ten teet Emmery Soncrant, who ia the clown, gives a remarkable exhibition of tumbling.

The engagement will close to-morrow night. “Thm Emigrant" at the Park. There was a change of program at the Park Theater yesterday afternoon, Pete taker appearing in “The Emigrant,” which »a* not been seen here for several seasons.

Mr. Baker, of , appears in tbt leading part, that of . ^..aoan emigrant, and Miss Martha George has tbs leading feminine role.

"irons in the fire” that he was forced to suspend. Since that time he has struggled to gain a financial foothold, and with varying success. Mr. Ryan went to Oregon before he was nineteen years old, where he made his first money as a merchant and a miner. While there he worked in the placer gold fields of Oregon. He returned to Indianapolis in 1859 and lent money to a wholesale merchant on Meridian street. He was one of the first commercial travelers to take the road out of Indianapolis. He believed that Indianapolis was so situated as to become a great wholesale center. W’hen the war came he paid out large sums of money to aid companies and regiments to organize. He is at present a commercial traveler for the Hildebrand Hardware Company. John W. Browning, candidate for the Republican nomination for anditor, was born in Marion county on his grandfather’s (John Wood) farm on Pleasant run. His father was R. L. Browning. His railroad career began on the old Madison A Indianapolis railroad in 1854 as train boy. He was a baggagemaster on the J., M. A I. road when seventeen years old, and refused a passenger train at twenty. He engaged in the horse business, owned several fast and noted trotters and pacers, and invented the hopples used for converting pacers to trotters. In 18ti7 he returned to the railroad business as sleeping car condu'itor on the Vandalia and I. A St. L., then checkman in the Vandalia freight house here. In 1870 he took

seven years old the family moved to an Illinois farm in Kankakee county. At sixteen he removed to Blue Island, just south of Chicago, and till nineteen worked on a dairy farm, in the meantime attending and graduating from the village High School. In 1809 he was graduated from the i Chicago Normal School, became principal ! of the Glencoe schools lor a year, and took the science course in Cornell University, Ithaca, N. Y., through the sophomore year, leaving the university because of the Chicago fire, which tied up his savings. He was teacher of biology in the Chicago ; Normal until January, 1877, when, at the | solicitation of l>r. Jordan, now president j of the Stanford University, California, his j friend and instructor at Cornell, he eume to Indianapolis to teach biology in the City High School, lie was graduated from Butler University m 1878 and from the Medical College of Indiana the same year. Later he received the degree ot master of science from Butler, and also from the 8taie University and from Purdue University, because of work in natural history. He is the author of the “Birds of Indiana,” in the report of the Indiana Horticultural Society for 1879; “Mammals of Ohio,” in volume 10 of the Geological Survey of Ohio, under Professor Newberry in 1882. He spent two summers with President Jordan and Prof. C. Gilbert and Professor Dudley of Cornell, collecting fishes in the Southern Allegheny region and in studying and classifying fishes in the Smithsonian Institution at Washington. As a result, twenty new species were discovered and published by Drs, Jordan and Brayton in bulletin 12 of the National Museum. Forsaking biology for medicine, Dr. Brayton was made professor of chemistry and toxicology in the Central College of Physicians and Surgeons, giving two full courses of eighty hours each, and doing expert work in criminal toxicology and allied cases in medical jurisprudence for the coroners of Marion and other counties.
