31 IN MISSING

S0HE VERYHIYSTERIOUS DOINGS IN THE SOUTH END.

A Ucs|eo»«l»Ie Citizen Decoyed InloaSnloun mil Is Never Seen Agaiti.

A respectably dressed female was found by a GAZETTE reporter hunting llis police headquarters this afternoon. She tells a strange tale which we will briefly recount. Five weeks ago next Tuesday her husband Frank Morris, disappeared under most pecul'ar circumstances. He had been working for Slusher, the plasterer aud had received on the Saturday previous $10 and on the following Monday $1.75. He left home early on Tuesday morning. Mr. Slusher saw him coaxed into a ealoon by Dan Mitchels, an idle fellow, who used to loaf abDut town. Nothing has been seen of either of them since, until last Wednesday when Mitchelscame'back He happensd to go to the house of Mrs. Morris, on South Second street near Moffatt, when she questioned him about her husband. Raking his hands he solemnly declared before Heaven that he had not seen him. Mrs. Morris, who had all this time been crushed with grief and who had no knowledge of how to find her husband, told hini that she knew better than that. She also told him that Mr. Siusher saw him decoy Morris into a saloon on the day he was missing. Ho again protested that he kne nothing of it,bat in doing so accidentally pulled out a bunch of keys which Mrs. M. recognized to have belonged to her hurband. She seized them, and after a struggle, succoeded in keeping them. He then loft town suddenly, going west, as it is now ascertained, on tho Indianapolis & St. Louis Railroad. He went too suddenly to take along with him his trunk, which is now at Usherman's grocery. The woman was told to relate her story at roll call tho police to-night.

AMUSEMENTS.

lit jwoatl Brothers.

A very large house greeted the Heywood Brothers Combination at the Opera House last evening.

The performance was only fair. The end men in the minstrel scene said some things which were new and good but they said a great many things which wero very old and very bad. ouble song and dance men, Hooloy aud Thompson, are excellent performers. Their business was ail new and good. Mr. Thompson, by the way, is the very image of George Wilson, in cork. The negro sketches wore well presented but each had a very tamo wind-up.

Mr. Heywood did not present all that was advertised in his street bills and posters. This is a practice which isbecoming altogether too common. There should be some plan by which the public could be protected from impostors of this kind.

Tlifir Meeting

Yesterday aud Last ivei)i»sr.

Tho interest in the revival now in progress in this city, increases as the work progresses. At the moring prayer meeting yesterday, the attendance was so large that the association room was found entirely too small to accommodate the crowd. To-day the Second Presbyterian church will be used instead of the association room.

At Dowling Hall last night there was a very large assemb y, and great interest was .' manifested. Dr. Munhall- deliyered an address full of interest. At its close the usual call was made upon all who felt so inclined to come forward. About 20 persons responded to the calTT This makes the aggregate number of conversions about 80. The leaders ol this movement consider themselves abundantly repaid in the success of the meetings,

OPERA HOUSE to-night.

FANNIE J. KELLOGG.

KELLOGG to-night,

Rossi as "Othello."

Lucy Hooper writes from to the Philadelphia Telegraph: Rossi the great Italian tragedian, has given two performances at the Italian Opera House during the past week, playing Othello on both occas8ions. Having the recollection of Salvini fresh in my mind, I could scarcely imagine that any actor could ever so personate the character as to give me the slightest pleasure, but ere the play was half over, I was forced to rescind my decision. It was a great performance, wonderfully powerfnl, pathatic, and original. In no one respect did Rossi imitate his brilliant countryman, and he proved himself to be fully his compeer in point of genius. He is not so handsome a man, though of equally power fill physique and noble presence, and his features are wonderfully mobile and expressive. He represents Othello not as a dusky, crimp-haired negro, as did Salvini, but as a Moor, with copper-tinged complexion and straight' locks.. In the first two acts I liked him less than I did his great rival. He is less noble, less dignified, more of the soldier and less of the# proud and stately [Oriental, and, above all, he is

mt T^: ." •r"£ J, 'v'"'~ •^•Tv~-V •-''"V,' Z8gf?-

less of a lover. Shall I ever forget I the meeting on the Island of Cyprus Salvini rendered it the joy too great for utterance, the love too deep for words, the broken phrases, the intense passion of the accents that told of emotion too overmastering to be expressed by speech? But in the third and fourth acts Rossi rises to equal tragic heights. The scream of fury with which he clutched lago was thrilling in the extreme. He did not pronounce the celebrated farewell with the pathos which Salvini infuses into it it is rather a cry of agony, not the wail of a broken heart. Strange to say, his version omits the scence where Othello asks Desdemona for the handkerchief, though in other respects it is far closer to the original than was the translation played by Salvini. In the last act be was magnificent. When, after the revelation of Emilia, be rushed to the bed, caught the dead Desdemona in bis arms, and stroked back her disheveled hair, lamenting over his slain love ib accents of such unutterable

WOP

and pathos that there was

scarcely a dry eye in the house, the pain of the moment was almost beyond what mimic passion should excite. His success was immense, the applause was perfectly frenzied, after the third act and at the end of the piece he was summoned again and again before the curtain and greeted with enthusiastic cries of "Bravo!" and the waving of hats and hankerchiefs. His troupe is very good, particularly the representatives oi lago and of Desdemona. The latter is a a delicate, girlish little creature, and she plays the character with infinite sweetness and pathos. Her fragile, childlike appearance added greatly to the effect of the great scenes of the last act, Desdemona seeming like a very toy in the strong, merciless grasp of the infuriated Moor.

Convicts in Masgacbneetts. Judge Pitman, who is holding court in Lawrence, Massachusetts, was informed the other day by the Sheriff that their institutions were so full of criminals that no more could be accommodated. The Judge directed him to telegraph to Worchester for accommodations. A telepram was returned, "All full here." Fitchburgand East Cambridge were sent to, and the dispatch returned, "All full." "Send then to Boston," said the Judge, "they claim that crime has diminished there." The Sheriff replied: "If crime has diminished, convicts have not. I know that they are all full there. In fact, they are lull everywhere, and I must do the best I can with them here."

''Statistical."

A Third street boy of ten desires to inform the public that a common umbreUu will not sustain the weight of a common boy. He mounted to the shed roof yesterday, spread the umbrella, and amid the hurrah of a group of boys he leaped off. He went dowo like lead, and when he came to his senses the boys were trying to pull him out an ash-box by the bair of the head.

Hot Much.

Yesterday morning when the fire bells rang a man hurried through the postoffice, looked all around, and then inquired of a boy: "Sonny was that an alarm of fire?" "I heard the bells going," replied the boy, "but I don't think they alarmed the fire much."

They Were Afraid To.

New York, Dec. 3—According to a Paris dispatch Due Delazes, French Minister of Foreign Affairs, states the reason why the Government refused to purchase the Suez' canal shares, when property was tendered for sale to the Ministry, was that MacMahon's Cabinet feared war with Germany.
