The Pittsburg Chronicle of Saturday evening
eavs:
Yesterday a womnn called at the honse of
Alderman Stowater.at Coleman's Siding, on the
Allegheny Valley Railroad, In tho Twenty-first
ward, and told the Alderman that her husband,
in going to work, had discovered an unknown
man lying partially in Shade's run, apparently
dead. The Alderman at once started ont, and
frolng to the place had the man removed to his
(the Alderman's) dwelling- )n half an honr
alterwards a train came down, and the
man was put npon it and brought to
the city, lie was found to have been very
dangerously injured. The blood was oozing
from his nose and ears, bis pantaloons were
frozen tightly about his legs below the knees,
and his abdomen had been burst open so as to
permit the escape of a portion of the entrails.
Jle was not altogether unconscious, but his
mind was so confuted that he could not talk
coherently ou anv subject. Ele was heard to
nay 'Gottlelb I.au" and "Connollsvllle" twp w.
three times, and . the supposition is that ho
was endeavoring to tell Lis name and place
of residence. Ho was found at the foot of a
steep hill, upon which is Coleman's Incline
railway, some five hundred fect in length.
The impression is that he ha3 been on the
hill, attempted to descend the Incline, and
in doing so missed his looting and rolled to tho
bottom. Tho bursting of hi abdomen would
Jbus be accounted for, and his subsequent in
ability to help himself out of tho water, lie
must have fallen a considerable distance, as hi
hat could nowhere be found. The Alderman
conveyed the injured man to the Homivopathic
Hospital, where an examination showed that, in
addition to the injuries already described, both
bonds and feet bad been frozen. The physicians
thought they could remove tho freezing sue
citefully. but tho injury to the abdomen was
very serloiip. and might terminate fatally.
ItlllCAL ANI E El ASIATIC.
"The liobetnlan Girl" hr Hie English Optra.
Troupe.
Last evening an unusually large and brilliant
audience nsenibled at the Academy of Music,
to witness the first performance of a short sea
son of English opera. There was scarcely a
vacant seat in the immense building, and the
enthusiasm of the audience was fairly propor
tionate to its size. Balfe's melodious opera of
The Bohemian Girl, of which Philadelphia au
diences seem never to tiro, was presented In ad
mirable style. Indeed, it has seldom been per
formed more satisfactorily. Mr. Bowler is not
as good a "Thaddeus" as Mr. Cattle, nor Is Miss
Rose Ifersec quite as good in ''Arliue" as Mrs.
Bernard, but they were both satisfactory last
evening. Miss Hersee, indeed, pang charmingly,
and Mr. Bowler appeared to better advantage
than usual, lie is still overly robustious at
times, but hia manner has becu toned down in a
perceptible degree, and iu singing "The Fair
Land of Poland" he was especially effective.
Mr. Campbell's "Count Aruhelm" is so well
known that it is only neccsenry to eay that it
was quite as good as usual. Mr. Seguin's
"Pevilshoof" is a fine piece of buffo singing and
acting, but we would advise him to return to
the old joke about "Paradise Lost; I'm glad I've
found it." Miss Fannie Goodwin, who appeared
as the "Gipsy Queen," ehows marked Improve
ment, and is gradually giving her part the
prominence that it merits.
Between the second and third act3, a short
concert programme was introduced, and with
general satisfaction. Mr. Drayton sang, with
excellent dramatic effect, "The Wolf," by
Shields, and Miss Jennie Von Busk was intro
duced to a Philadelphia audience in n dlfllcult
"Nightingale" trill. Her execution of this was
admirable, although her voice is far from being
a Etrong one. Bat what it lacks in strength is
fully compensated for by its smoothness and
clearness. Then followed the sensation of the
evening, a medley on the violin by a pretty little
bit of humanity styled "Ainericus." It
is to be regretted that the management
have lapecd into the circus retyle it
naming this "infant phenomenon," instead of
giving his true cognomen, lie is enough of an
artist to appear on tho bills in a more dignified
way. The child is barely able lo hold a diminu
tive violin in his infantile hands, but he handles
it most admirably for one so young, and plays
with method, grace, and ease. He was three
times encored, and during his performance went
from grave to gay, from lively to severe, with
a composure that was in itself worth witnessing.-
The house was taken by storm, and the
little fellow made a determined effort to merit
the applause he received, an effort iu which he
was fairly successful, lie Is aunounced to ap
pear agaiu this evening, having volunteered for
the benefit of Messrs. Zimmerman and Cam.iball.
'The Old tlan ofthe Mountain" at the Cbeannt
The bold crusaders "fit iuto" the S.iracens in
fine old-fashioned style la?t night at the Chesnut,
to the immense delight of at least a very large
proportion of a very large audience. The cru
saders Indulged in considerable tall talking that
would not have discredited the traditional
Mississippi flatboatmen, but they also did some
hard fighting when matters came to a climax
between them and "the Old Man of the Moan
tain," "Saladin," and the other infidels, aud the
walls of Jerusalem were carried in really gallant
etyle. There were also some love passages be
tween "Bohemond," the King of Jerusalem, and
"Almea," a lovely Saracen, who, as far as we
were able to make out, was tho niece or daugh
ter or some near relative of that terrible
old fellow, "the Old Man of the Mountain."
"Almea" nobly saved the lifo of "Bohemond"
when he was about to perish by the dagger of
one of the assassins iu the employ of the "Old
Man," but as, according to our reading of his
tory and romance, it always happened to these
fair Saracens she was deserted by "Bohemond"
for a Christian maiden. "Almoa," unable ta
bear this wrong in a sufficiently philosophical
spirit, becomes a Christian and retires to a con
vent. Perhaps Mr. Foster, the author of the
drama, had historical authority for this, but, to
our fancy, it was a rather tame ending of
'AlmeaV career, when she might as well have
slain herself at the feet of her recreant lover,
and thus secured an additional round of ap
plause from the galleries. In addition to the
above there was also a comic love episode in
which a Christian maiden was pursued
by sonio dozen or two of admirers,
one of whom, "Gogo," chief cook, farrier, black
smith, and inan-of-all-work for the Christian
army, furnibhed a large proportion of the fun
of the piece. As a piece of dramatic construc
tion, The Old Man ofthe Mountain is far from
perfect, and it Is rather dilllcult at times for the
spectator to keep the thread of the argument;
but as a purely spectacular drama it has consi
derable merit, as it affords excellent opportuni
ties fur fine scenic effects, splendid dresses, and
gorgeous appointments. If is from this point
of view, of course, that t Is to be judged, and
as a spectacle The Old Man oj the Mountain
bos many attractions that will entitle it to the
atteution of the play-going public, it
bat' been placed upon the stage in
very liberal slyle, the scenery, dresses, and
spectacular appointments being remarkably
rich and elegant. Last nisut there were some
Inequalities, both in the performance and In the
wotking of the scenery, such as are to be ex
pected at a first representation, bat hereafter
these will be remedied, and the piece will pro
cess as smoothly as could be desired. With
tho exception that some of the actors required
the assistance of the prompter rather frc
iiiiently, the leading parts were well-susUlned,
Mr. Nagle rather carrying off the honors by a
vigorous and melodramatic personation of "The
Old Man of the Mountain." Mr. Thorne made
a spirited representative of "Bohemond," and
Miss Glover a sufllclently lovely "Altnea." Mr.
Lennox as "Gogo," the comic farrier, sustained
his reputation as an excellent performer iu this
line of business.
The Old Man ofthe Maintain U undeniably a
very handsome spectacle, and it dcerves to
have an extended run. The chief difficulty It
labors under is a lack of stage-room, the stage
of the Chesnut being too narrow to enable
,eLilorate scenic effects to be given in the most
approved style. Tho piece, however, was
heartily applauded last evoning, and a there
has been nothing in the spectacular line pro
duced here for some time, it will doubtless prove
a brilliant success.
