actors i n 1 actresses in tho State of Indi
ana, not to be professionals ; and thev
can get up and play the best pieces in
mo shortest time, thereby showing superior talent to any that tins been exhibited elsewhere, and what is more, their pieces and reputation always insures them full houses. How did thev
get this reputation ? By always giving
to the public the best plays of tho dav.
and giving the public to understand that
they should always do so. For instancf, we take their Dcrformanco on the 36th r
it was a grand success from besriiiiiinir

charm the most diabolical creature that
the Almighty, in his divine wisdom ever created.
Mr. Michael Sweenev was there, and

Hon. John F. Follett, in a speech a few days since at Hamilton, Ohio, said : "Any fahorinir man at this day" "who at thl election bends his neck to the liepublican yoke, should never again complain of hurdetiH and distress." Thn Republican party has always proved itself the fon of the laboring man, and opposition to it should be the cardinal
principal of workingmen. They should
throw their votes where they will do the most good, and shun all: entangling
allianees with new parties which will in the slightest degree act against the Democracy, the true friends and defenders
of labor and industry.
That there is more heroism in the
Catholic than in the Protestant churches
is abundantly demonstrated bv the mor
tality reports in the fever-stricken cities
of the South. Not a single priest has
forsaken his flock and soujfht safetv in
rliifllt. Thev died at their tiots. The
dark-robed Sisters of Charity also brave
the pestilence without fiiucbiiiir. and
offer up their pure lives a sacritiec to
duty. There is something vital iu tho
Catholic faith whicli it inspires its priests with more than mortal conrsirn when
they come in contiot with the destroy
ing angel. -Indianapolis Herald.
