The Burglar.
"The Burglar" comes to Metropolis
tan Hall for one night, on Monday,
March 14th. It is a charming adapta
tion of Mrs. Burnett's pretty story
Editba's Burglar presented by a
talented arid well balanced company
a play replute with laughter pro
vokiug humor and -ye moistening
sentiment and at times bordering on
the sensational pleasing and delight
ing in all its four acts the plot is in
teresting, well conceived and admir
e ble worked out, maintaining an an
flagging interest of. the audience from
the rise to the fall of the curtain In
the third act where the burglar un
knowingly enters the apartment of
his divorced wife and is interrupted
in his midnight, labors by an infant
ohtld that the feelings of the audi
ence are drawn to their utmost ten
sion, finding relief in frequent bursts
of laughter at the innocent prattling
of the child with the rough specimen
of humanity who, although a criminal,
possesses the kindlier attributes of
nature. Mr. Al. Lipman will be seen
j a the title role.' Mr. Lipmau is a
forcible, finished actor, and gives
close attention to the smallest detail.
The corn pan supporting Mr. Lipman
is a very excel lent one.

Mystery Explained.
Yesterday afternoon about 6 o'clock,
the attention" of a reporter of the
Visitor was attracted to a large, and,
some what excited crowd that had as
sehibk'd in front of the hard ware es
tablienment of Messr Julius Lawis
Ss Co For awhile, the utmost stir
prevailed, and, it was somewhat dif
ficuU. to unravel to cause It. was
oon discovered that the crowd sur
rounded a very curious little animal,
which caused the frequent exclama
tion of "what is it r All kiuds of ex
planations were Riven, and there
were wiseacres by the hundred Some
;lf dared it to be i mixture of cat and
t'ooo, and the versatile Fuuntleroy
Taylor, at on" prououuoed it a ''oat
-coou " This settled it in the minds
t many, bu the reporter insisted it
was a ground hog. Tut morning be
kept, up his inv stigation, and ran up
with a well known citizen who gave
the following version which he claims
to be reliable.
During the exposition last fall, a
genthman brought aground hog to
the show, which be exhibited. About
the close of the exposition, the ani
mal shed his hair, rendering his back
almost perfectly slick. From some
cause the hair did not grow out
again, and the owner gave tne miina
to a gentleman who, in turn, gave it
to an old colored woman residing in
the rear of Mr. N. W, West's lot, on
Hillsboro. street. We suppose the
ground hog strayed off to Mr. West's
premises where it was found, The
reporter's informant declares it to I e
a ground hog, with no "catacoon"
about it.
Now we want to say "that we have
told the tale as it was told to us " If
there , is any mistake, we are not re
sponsible, bat as the commercial men
say in their letters : ' Errors and
omissions corrected."
