Turbtil Critical Comm. in At the curtain on the third act of the Lion and iho Mouse last night the crowded Academy almost went wild with delight at the climax lu Josephine Lovett's olaylng as Bhlrlcy RosHtnore. , The t: play, by Charl-w Klein, la supposed to be, as- everybody Knows, suggestive of John u. hockb feller and Ida M, Tarbell; but it -is certainly not more than suggestive. Romance overtules fact John - p., Jr., (under the play name of Jefferson Ryder, as W father is under itia Dlav namt of John Burkett Ryder) is In love with Miss TarbelK here Mls Rossmore) and -his father ' has had announced his engagement to Senator Aldrlch'a daughter ,1! there , K.ate, daughter of Senator' Roberts.) It".s hot likely; that the real Mlse Tarbell over enjoyed the love of J. p.,. Jr , or loved hlm,'f and it Isn't a fact, that he and she were married, as the play leaves us to suppose. But, , to ' adopt- tho programme namea, Shirley Rossman's father Is about, to be Impeached as Judge by Influence of the rich ;man llyder. Shirley goes In to save J him. To put her 'wlt in bold relief, the terrr-of others In the presence of the bl ma a te exhibited a-whiles before Shirley beards him In his den. She comes, not upon his invitation to his office, nor upon' his Invitation to his house, but to his house tipn his wife's In formal Invitation and under her nom de plume,. "Miss Green." When she Is ushered in and he and she arc left alone, the dialogue (which through out the play is smooth and brilliant) sparkles like light. It made the audlenee tingle. He has on his desk a book of her authorshrp. in the h!ro ofhlch he recognftes himself. He cross-examines her a to the sources ,.t v... inrnrmatinn aobut him, he having no dream of her identity, and her answers are so niiteiv sooken a to disarm and vin him. . She gets the under hold, or we upper hand, " at ;the start, nd im proves upon her advantage until the lour iiirta1n - u A. Vi tfrnw to aamire her that he begs of her the honor of allowing him to introduce her Into his family. The meeting between her and her lover, in the presence of the iurv father. - is v quite cleverly played. All this Is In the second act u,ut hftnra the close of wbtch Snir- ley requests her lover to abstract Jrt.in ittr from his father's desk which will go toward tho vindication of her father. L All this narrative to present the climax: the third act is consumed with Shirley and old man Ryder on the stare centre. Others come and go. Shirley's father's attorney gets an audience with Ryder, through her Influence, and playsthose abstractea letters us his trump card. These do not move old Ryder, save to indlgna tion at his son's treachery; for no body but his son could have had ac cess to the letters., e dismisses tne attorney, calls In his son, and In "Miss Green's" presence, scores him. The son confesses his theft of the letters, gives some .pretty stiff talk to the old man, and, persuaded by hints from his sweetheart, pleads with the old man to relent toward Judge Rossmore and save him from im peachment. His .pleading does no good. And here Is where Miss Josephine Lovett (whoever she map be), as Shirley Rossmore, got In her good work. Seeing no further benefit from disguise, she declared her proper per son to the old- man, and In a ten minute storm of panslon gave him her mind. He had plainly told her after the Senator's daughter had "cut the fool , with another fellow" that he desired her to marry his son. m her denouncement of him. she told mm that she would marry the son of no such man, and so on. But the action here was superior to the dia logue, tr sjich a thing may be. The woman In every muscle quivered with panslon. and her voice stood by her like a bell. Every step she took and every gesture she made was effective me curiam ni unon her exit. And the' honor was the greater. Inas much as the people did not know who Josephine Lovett was. The same au and Is doing very well. The proprle tors say that they will not permit biij uiwraeny conduct there. Refereo In Bankruptcy J. n Spence yesterday received the papers m me cane or tne voluntary bank ruptcy of Sidney B. Splvey, of Union county. The liabilities are estimated at II. 884. 51 and the assets at II.00Q The street through Hhe Morehead property has been graded. No nam? lor u iihh yei Deen nectded upon. While the street Is nothing more than an extension of College street. It Is very likely that some other name will be given It. v- Mrs. Woodbufy Sherrill. of Den vcr. Lincoln county, brought her Heven children, who, had been bitten by rabid dog. to Charlotte In a wagon to have the O'Donoghue mad stone ap plied. Tbey arrived here before day yesterday morning.
