The City AmiMmrnti.
At thk Chbsnct Miss Laura Keene will have a
benefit thli evening, when Sheridan's comedy of
The School for Scandal will be performed. The ex
periment that Miss Keene Is making at the Cncsnut
ii one that Is entitled to the warmest regards of all
who admire true dramatic art, and who wish to see
the theatres at all times places of refined and elegant
entertainment. Such an experiment ought not to be
a doubtful success, and the public favor that has
bean accorded to the Chesnut since it has been in
Miss Keene'g hands proves that there is a public to
support such an establishment. The plays that have
been brought out there have been of a character to
appeal to the popular sympathies and tastes, and at
the ame time they have been worthy of hearty
praise from an artistic point of view. Miss Keene
herself is an actress of great ability, who has an
assured reputation in a wide range or
parts that Is second to that of no lady on the Ame
rican stage. She has gathered about her an nnusu
ally talented corps of artists, who are fully capable
r presenting almost any work in an antlrely accept
able manner, and the stage appointments are usu
ally all that good taste can desire. The Chesnut,
Since its alteration, Is an exceedingly beautiful
theatre, with very superior accommodation for the
comfort of the audience, and it ought to be crowded
this evening to its utmoBt capacity.
A new play entitled Bogus, by an American author,
ia announced for Monday.

row. A number of llrst-raic tricks will be periormcd

Mad'i.i.k Caki.otta Patti will give a farewell
matinee to-morrow at the Academy of Music. This
will be Mud'lle Paul's last appearance previous to
her departure for an extended tour through the
West. She will be assisted by Mr. Theodore Kit:er,
Mr. J. F. Prume, and Joseph Hermanns. Mr.

German Opera. A season of German opera,
under the management of Mr. J. Gran, is announced
to commence at the Academy of Music on Monday,
Is'oveniber 18. The operas will be interpreted by
such well-known and popular artistes as Mesdtiines
Frederlcl, Hotter, Joliannsen, He Ziuta, and Messrs.
Hermanns, Aruiand.W. Formes, Stelnecke, Hlminer,
and Weiulich. The musical director wiH be Carl
Anschutz. It will be seen that Mr. Grau relies
rather upon the strength of his troupe than upon
any particular singer, and with the artists above
named performances of a very high order of merit
niav be expected.
There will be twelve night performances anil
two matinees, for which the following works are
announced: Faust, Magic Flute, l)er FreUchutz,
Robert U Viable, La Juive, Martlia, Fitlelio, Mananiello,
l)i n Oiovamvi, Huguenots, William Tell, Marry Wines
of Windsor, La Dame lllanche, and Fra Diaeolo,
HUMORS OF JOURNALISM.
The Religious Reporter la America.
The Philadelphia Sunday Mercury, says the Pall
Mall (Jazette, keeps upon its 'Stan a "religious re
perter." For live years, we are told, "Charley
Gratlen" was the man. Charley originated the de
partment, and did a world of good by "tomahawking
hypocrites." Death put an end to tils labors a year
ago. "One year ago last Wednesday," writes his
successor, "Charley folded the mantle of sleep
around htm and lay down to pleasant dreams, '
looking not upon death with terror, but as a blurt"
and trusty friend, whose hand he could grasp lu full
conUdence that he was gathering the ex.
pinug Journalist Into the reainiB," etc.
The present wielder of the tomahawk
carries on Charley's work with zest and spirit. He
writes anonymously (for which there seems to be
sutUcleut reason), and tells us very little about him
self. Even our knowledge of his conversion is due
to that process having gone on simultaneously with
the conversion of "Deacon Jacob, a gardener, our
Old schoolmate in Adams county."
But the Mercury's reporter is voluble enough about
other people, foot a pastor, deacon, or humble
brother, even, is safe from him. He knows some
thing about them all, and tells It with a frankness
which must be the delight of many a tea-table lu
Philadelphia. A few choice examples of his style
when dealing with "the cloth" appear iu recent
articles. The pastor of the Tabernacle Methodist
Church took no holiday this year. Nevertheless,
says the reporter, "we do not expect to survive our
dear brother. Through the instrumentality of black
tea and fried potatoes, he will, doubtless, extend his
longevity to the year of our Lord 1892.
When called to the harvest
of the Lord, he will certainly come bearing with hira a
two-horse load of first-class sheaves." Brother Mur-
hy, too, kpt bis church open all the summer. He
i another devoted man. "The first sheaf he gar
neredand it has proved to be the base of the big
gest kind of a subsequent stack of them was Alfred
CI. llarmer. now engaged In piously laying out the
saints In the glades and dells or lovely Old Oaks."
The Rev. Francis K. Arnold Is described as "an ex
tremely tine Bpeclraen," whom the ladles of his
- parish regarded as "by long odds the best-looking
pastor lu all Pennsylvania. He doesn't need any
artificial oloom of roses ; while his moustache Is as a
trumpet vine throwing Us laughing tendrils over
toe arch of a garden gate. Placed
in the vestibule of a nouse, with morning-glory
seeds planted in bis boot legs, aud no ornament
could quicker bring to halt a crowd of by
passers." The Kev. Samuel W. Ilallowell is a
pastor of another stamp. lie Is "upwards of
seventy years of age, and has constantly kept the
Devil with a black eye since the Drat day ho received
, holy orders." The reporter, having heard this
gentleman preach in a suburban church, was offered
the hospitality of a brother "from New England, the
land of .cold Sunday dinners and sixty-minute
prayers." The hospitality was decline!, because
after such a sermon nothing short of broiled fowl
would do; and luckily, Mr. Hi li k, of the Amerlcau
House, had a spring chicken ready. Having done
Iustice to the chleken, the reporter went to hear
Jrother Badger, of St. Stephen s. Mr. Badger Is a
email man. and "as he emerired from the vestry-
room in his white surplice, we thought of Zaccheus
clniibimr the svcauiove on tue any tutu our Lora took
dinner at his house." Moreover, the worthy
pastor is so shortsighted as not to know
his principal warden from "the clam-dealer who
operates in bivalves across the way," and he passes
his time In a state of warfare with Brother Joe
Parker, who holds out-door prayer-meetings, and
"addresses the Lord in shockingly ungrammatical
English." In both these matters the reporter sympa
thises wren me parson ; out ex-tity niiasiunurv itev.
John Street gets the tomahawk: "He made the
missionary business furnish a nest-egg for a luxii
rlous eompetence. Street lives in lavender-
ale and claret. Yon can see both, the latter in
tiarlBupn on the freiirdt cars, at freoueut intervals.
Lsarlug his address lu turnentlme aud lampblack :
I 1113 1 1 1 1 1 Ml .LUU J IVIUO
A thousand nreclous sweets."
The renorter deals with the laity as well as the
clergy. Noting the appearance lu church of Brother
Harry Dreer after a lengthened tour In Europe, be
says : "Brother Dreer so long sang hymns In the
American chapel at Paris that he could not quite
eradicate from his vocalization the Parisian acceut."
fli hhiiih brother Is also reported to have "done un
his devotions In wavside chapels on the lower lifts of
the Alps." A Mr. 'Jordan, "who bo long supplied
viiilnrteiiitila with bottled stout," having Jotued a
Catholic Church, Is described as "one of the few
nun nvr ihirtv vean of aiM that hasn't lost the
faculty ol blushing:" and Brother William Matthews.
inMt frenii from California, is credited with "a heart
about the sine of an egg plant," aa,d a pocket-book
to match. "It Is a nice thing," muses the reporter,
"to have treasures laid up where burglars can't get
at tlieni; a big balance lu bauk Is also a good
ttiinff. We should like a tate of the sensation.
Noticing the departure of a gentleman from the Re
formed Presbyterian Church, the writer says:
ii(riiiur Liunlao. like so many useful Christians,
finds the road to lortune a good deal shorter by way
of New York than bv way of Philadelphia. The
nnlv drawback to New York Is that its distance from
Heaven eAceciia inuv wi mij ..v ...mi,.
When Brother Dunlap starts for Paradise he intends
to do so from Philadelphia." The history of unother
brother who, being tempted, went astray, Is told at
pdlfvliiK length. We refer to it only for the sake of
the reporter's preventive airaiust such lues:
"With ten hours' labor per dav, and a diet of sult
herrinirs ami potatoes, this gentleman tn a'l pro
lability would have lived up tv Ut WJ'.UUigi of liu
master, and have nltlmntcly brought np in a first
class seat among the cherubim and seraphim." It
Is added : "The status of the brother in the Church
will not be disturbed by his alfnirs. In the words
of a co-brother, 'we can't afford to lose him.' " The
public Is assured that Mr. A. List, a ieershop keeper,
was not oonverted on a certain evening. "A
fine-looking man experienced religion at Ebcnezcr
on that evening, but it wasn't the silken-haired
Adolf." After visiting a suburban church the reporter
writes; "Our brother John Stone, the oilman on
Walnut street, was there, and the manner In which
he acknowledged himself a miserable sinner was
suceulcntly refreshing. Our Adonis, like brother
Lockwood, the Hercules of the envelope and paner
collar trade, smiled benignly behind an eleven-doliar
Crayerbook ; he admitted himself a miserable sinner,
nt the admission is to be accepted cum nrano satis."
"We don't believe," writes the reporter in one of
Ms exordiums, "that when Moses ca'ne down the
lava-strewn slope of Sinai ho hail any more Idea of
a Sunday Mercury than ho had of a wilvanlc battery,
a locomotive, or autotnaeit machines for making
bricks." Which is very likely.
A rOSER.
re Wotimn flfnrrlcn Another mid Commence
tan a Mull.
Sho has married a woman. Such Is the position of
a plaintiff before a law court of Santiago, Chill. The
wife has sued fora divorce, founding the application
on the slnple fact that her husband is of the same
sex as herself. Til s was enough to procure a di
vorce, but not enough to create an embarrassing law
case ; and yet the bench of Santiago is sorely puzzled
over the matter. It was easy to separate husband
and wife: but how about the property? The one of
the two ladles who undertook the part of husband
had married the other for her money and for her
rospects. She was In the habit of frequenting the
laths of Colina for the purpose of selling fresh
eggs and other such commodities to the
world of fashion who seek health and repose In that
watering place. The police had watched the egg
seller, and noticed that he or she always wore a
cloak, and that on no account was It ever put aside.
Otherwise, the eggseller's dress and gait were that
of a man. On tho other hand, the wife of this sin
gular mate Is of a simplicity and Innocence so great
that for some time after the marriage she had no
suspicion as to the nullity of her husbands' preten
sions. In the meantime madame the husband, lu all
the pride of manhood, employed herself busily in
making purchases and contracts In her wife's name
aud with her wife's marriage portion. Now the
question arises whether the wife should be respon
sible for the debts incurred by the husband while
managing her ail'airs. There Is another question
also what punishment should be luilicted oa the
husband for contempt of law and for forgery com
mitted iu signing the marriage contract and other
documents under an assumed sex? The leiful aspect.9
of the case may be left to the learned magistrate of
Santiago.
MARTYRDOM.
A Ciirlstlnn Woman Tortured by Chinese.
A Catholic paper In England gives the lolloping ac
count of an incident which It says recently occurred
at Canton: "A native Christian woman, much re
spectedfby theChristlans.and by the pagans who were
acquainted with her, has devoted herself for 20 years
to the rescuing aud baptizing infants abandoned by
their parents. At the beginning of July she was
arrested on the charge of practising sorcery upon
young children, aud of taking out their eyes, the
marrow of their bones, and even their souls, with a
view to the preparation of magical remedies: She
was several times put to the question, and savagely
beaten on the face with leathern straps to induce
her to confess her guilt. In the midst of her
tortures, however, she maintained the greatest
courage and constancy in confessing the faith.
She was condemned to death, and It was feared
that the sentence would he Immediately executed.
Upon this M. Gerardin, the resident missionarv, suc
ceeded in obtaining entrance to the prison, heard
her confession, and administered to her the Holy
Viaticum; while the Bishop, Mgr. Guillemiu, left no
means untried to obtain a respite. This was granted,
aud the Viceroy spread a report that the cause would
be carried by appeal to Pekln. But in the meantime
the populace were excited to fresh violence, aud the
mandarins subjected the accused to fresh examina
tions, forcing her to remain for many hours kneeling
upon Iron chaiiiB. All of a sudden, however, th
victim of persecution was set at liberty and received
with public demonstrations of Joy by the Christuui
part of the population."
TRAGEDY.
A Murder at a Wedding.
At a wedding In Texas. ( ctober 21. a man and a
young woman were murdorrd. The story is told by
a local paper: "On Thuisday night, while a party
was assembled at the residence of Mr. Hargreave, In
Keen 8 prairie, urimeB county, io attend me mar
riage of Mr. Hargreave's daughter, and a few mo
ments alter ine ceremony nun ueen pcriormed, a
company of soldiers, in pursuit of some one supposed
to tie mere, surrounucu me nouse ami uemauiiea its
surrender. Mr. Hargreave oll'ered to surrender the
house and every one lu it, and went out to the cap
tain of the squad. The report is that while Mr. Har
greave was out a pistol in the hands of a young man
In the house went olf accidentally. The soldiers In
the house Immediately opened lire. A Miss Itussell
had just stepped upon a gallery, when she was hit
lu the head with a mlnle ball aud In the leg with a
buckshot, aud Instantly killed. A Mr. Fowler was
also killed. Kolla Pearce aud Mrs. Autery were
wounded. With the first shot the gentlemen in the
house started every one to lie down nut upon the
tloor. But for this many more lives would have been
lost. The groom and several others were arrested
and carried oil'."

The construction of suspension bridges has been
thought a signal achievement by the Western na
tions, but in China they are of great antiquity, and
many sun exist, uncy are mane oi iron cmuus, ami
their mode of construction resembles in the main
that used in the Western countries. They are, how
ever, generally conllned to mountainous regions,
mid snan rivers wuohb iiuviguuou is niiuniimuu.
There is one over a river in the Yunnan Province
that Is said t have been lirst built by one
famous Chu-koh-liang more than two thousand
years Binye, and there Is a second aud much larger
one In the Kweichow province, spanning the Klver
Pel. This latter was mini during me Aung dynasty.
It consists of many chains stretched across the river
and fastened llrmly In the stone on either bank;
from natural elevations above other chains depend,
and are made fast to the span ; and there are also
chains fastened to it from below, the object being to
make the bridge as linn as possible. A plank tloor
Is laid on this bed of chains; it Is repaired at regular
intervals of from three to live years at the imperial
expense. The span of this bridge Is Bald to be seve

A Hoy's Heroism.
From the Woodland (Co.) Democrat, Oct, 10.
A resident of Knight's Landing semis us the follow
ing account of an act of juvenile heroism : On Sat
urday last two men went to the farm of Philip
Prather, on (he Sacramento river, about two miles
above Knight's Landing, and found only a small
boy at the house (a sou of Prattler's), who. upon Bee
lug strangers approach, went into the house and
locked the door. The men demanded admittance,
and threatened to kill him if he did not open the
door and give them what money was in the house.
The boy went up stairs, ostensibly to get the money,
but Instead he brought down a loaded ritle, and told
them to leave or he would shoot. One of the men
told him he could not do it, and they then attempted
to break in the door with clubs, when the boy aimed
at the larger of the two through the window, and
shot. The result he does not know, as the fellow
halloed and ran away. The boy thinks he hit his
man a centre shot. The little fellow is only eleven
years old, and his mother whs at Knight's Landing
trading. Mr. Prather Is at present lu the EaiU The
boy deserves credit for his heroism.
