The Bartlett bindery, 624 Main street* entrance through the Central book store, has the contract for making the books of the National bank of Rockville.

Shows and Show Folks.

We had Wednesday evening about the last dramatio performance of tho season. This was "Led Astray," with Rose Kytinge as "Armande Chandoce." The support was fair, but none deserving of particular mention. That the play gave satisfaction was due almost wholly to the magnetic qualities of Rose Eytlnge herself. The drama is of that Frenchy class of which "Divorce" is

ment. And it is a thousand pities that such a woman as Rose Eytinge can find no better occupation than to study the aocurate delineation of such dubious characters as Armande Chandoce, and similar personations, so false, hollow immoral,'mere travesties of human life, such as one might see while passing drug store window. But it is useless

now to

talk or write upon the subject

the class of people that no-v go to thea tres, just at this time give their best patronage to such plays, and we must wait until the theater-going public tire of them, just as that public has tired of the leg diaaia.

Our Miss Fannie J. Kellogg met with marked success in her singing in the oratorio of "Elijah," at St. Louis recently. The St. Louis Globe says:" She was put-to the severe test of singing in a strange hall, of vaster proportions than any she was accustomed to be heard in, before a critical audience, and in a work that tries to the utmost the capabilities of the human voice. She met every demand, and those who came to criticise went away to praise. Her voice appeared to excellent advantage in the duet, "Zion

Spreadeth Her Hands," but the real merits of her silvery tones were not fully appreciated, even by cultured musicians, until the second part, when she sang the air, "Hail Ye, Israel," in the most exquisitely finished manner, completely disarming criticism.

Theatricals in the West during the past year were unsuccessful, and, in some smaller towns, disastrous.
