Curtis Gilbert and Robert Patee were good sa the lawyets and did credit to the
SIvansville,
rofession. Mim Esther Powers, of r«nderen in a very charming and catching manner her pretty son?, "Clover But no one did better than Miss Mary Peddle, whose full rich contralto voice charmed every one. It is not because Mim Edith uastle, as the golden-rod, has hot been mentioned until now that she does not deserve credit No one looked prettier, or sang better aod Terre Haute would be proua of possessing one with such a sweet and charming voice. The little lillies. daisies and rosse flitted in and out in tne most bewildering way and fascinated all with tbeir pretty fates and piquant little wava. The lilly minuet was charming ana the confusion of one or two of the little ones only heightened the effect and added amusement. But without doubt the swing scene and song was the ino»t attractive part of the operetta, It was aimoly beautiful and nothing in the professional line eould have been more effectively and perfectly done. It is Worth going to see and hear that, if there waa nothing mors.
Minds tail when it comes to Adolph Gagg. He is indisciibable and inimitable, and we sit know that he haa but to walk on the stage to eonvnlse the whole audience. Last night be certainly outdid himself, and had he only written more verses te his topical song there is no donlft -that the audience wcfcld have .him there singing yet, Charles Bnunan as (he rmion wa* fine, and so realistic ohe could almost. sympathise when the Uttle daisies screamed at. his approach. Fred Feulka waa a perfect dede ef aeunflower. Sheldon Greiner the thistle looked and took his part-well. "Uncle 8am" waa realistic to the last degree, we wtmid'scarcely recognise Omer Mejrhinnejr through the disguise. Only aftef aeeiug the Rational Flower, can we raialiae the ability and energy it haa required to compose and produce so elaborate an affair, and all this and more is due to'Mrs. Allyn Adams.

The opening scene was charming with the jury in all their pretty gowns, and in tbi* act, Mim Harriet Paige although suffering from the effects of a severe cold, sang in her sweet voice one of her prettiest solos. Miss Jessie Alden and Mim Emma Kerns in tbis act notionly sang most beautifully but loeksd as |iweet as only two such pretty girls can look. Miss Louise HaverJy and Mim Jessie Havens, as the two maids, were one ef the hits of the evening and although they had but little to say to the audience they made a great fuss among jury the with their bird cages, band boxes and typical curls, they filled the bill in evenr respect

Wasbington,
May 9.—The escape of
the Chilian rebel gun bout Itata, and the ^forts to re-capttire her continue to afford topics lor a lively didenaeion in all circles here. £he close secrecy maintained at^e havy, st^e mid treasury departments and also at the department of justice, increases the interest to get at the real facts. In the meantime, however, gamip goes on among the navy people aa to the relative merits of our naval cruisers and war ships and as to the pratable *buicome of a fight between certain vessels of our navy with the Chilian war ship Esmeralda, which it is said is likely to be near at hand to help and .protect the fleeing Itata.
Inotly on naval Affairs, speaking about the probability of our cruiser Charles^n going in pursuit of the Itata, remarked ttMlay that even if the Charles* ton sbtjald be able to overtake the Itata the latter might not be alone because the insnrgfent cruiser, the Esmeralda, ia auppoeed to be steaming up the coaat, presumably to lq$k put Ctr the Itata and help of«difficulty if necespary. If the dakrleaton found her under the protection rf the Esmeralda it would be still her duty to take heir even if she had to fight to do itf The Charleston and the Esmeralda are evenly matehed vessels. The Charleston is in fact a modification of the Esmeralda's plant and is somewhat faster. Each of the ships carries s& inch guns, three on each side and in addition to these, the Esmeralda carries-two ten inch guns, one forward and one aft, while the' Charleston haa only eight*inch guns. It is very doubtful, however, whether the insurgents would risk the Esmeralda in a fight with the United States and if the Charleston should overtake the Itata she would undoubtedly brhig her into port

The cities interested and included in the northwestern league are ball towns from aoda to hock. There has never, in the history of base ball in the west, been formed a combination of league cities which gives brighter or more positive promise of a successful sesaon There is an excellent organisation of the league: the various associations are composed of eneigetic, intelligent gentlemen, and the managers of the teams are uniformly of that atamp that giree assurance of general first-etas work on the part of their teams and theconsequentstimnlation of interest in the game throughout the circuit Grand Bapids will at onoe examine into the J£atx matter and if it be found that Terre Haute's protest is well based Mr. Katz will be duly labeled, properly billed and consigned to the Terre Haute management
