by well thinking fsieple bocause the innve
meiit involved the oxpeudtlure et half a
million dollars without accempllshlni; any

cost the state re Iargn an amount tbe Ipgls

it remained In xovden about six months sim

legal constitutional sanction, as well by
ether meatiH. I uder the four years admin

of the state government iiave been largely
reduced bv tlm curtailment of expensea.
Under previous a Jmluistrallens It was cus
tomary te expend mere ler advertisement of
proposals than tbe alue of tbe articles ad

promptly stepped by tlie governor aud his
secretary et state, and thus many thousands
of dollars were saved te the statu,

Last evening the comedy et "Mixed

opera houe was net mero than half filled
iisii star Mr. I'elk was somewhat of a stranger
le Lancaster poeplo, but had the merits of his
entertainment been better known the heuse
would have been crowded. The cemedy
Is ery funny, and by the plot two parties by
the name et I'fklc are terribly mixed.
JiMrii VV'.'f, a fast young man, and his
brother -h'nir, who Is a popular young
minister, are lulli lu leve with Chcrr'i

who, Iieva ever, has a friend in llie old man,
who is Inclined te be fast, vfi deter
mines te win the girl by setting tier mother
against ministers. He sends his brother en
a wildgoeso chase by n false telegram and
during bis absence linporsenateH him. He
makes leve te all tbe women and succeeds
in getting iver.vlMHly in the uelghborheoil,
and especially Obi IJrewii, into dllllcultles,
but llnally carries his point.
Mr. I'elk aasumed the character of fuirpt
J'iclle, llie author of all tbe mischief, iu an
ndmlrable manner. He Isanexcollent come
dian, and seen made blmaelf a great lavorile
vv Ith the audience by his easy style of acting.
Ills sudden transformation from a careless
man-about town te a solemn looking clergy
man almost uijHtilied the audience. His
facial expression showed great ability in tbat
line. Mr. l'elk's company Is net large, but
throughout It ia very strong. Alex Vincent
as Hiram Jtreit n, llie old sjHirt, was ery
funny and lie seemed te Ihi almost as great a
favorite as tbe star hlmsell. J. W. Parker as
Jen. .clilAui I'irk.le, tbe real mlnUter, did

I'letn lhe New Yerk Tlmes
William AI. Hlngerly owned anil Uoergo C.
ltrothcrten leased tbe Tomple theatre In
Philadelphia, which was doitreyod by tlrnen
Monday last, The fact that "The Mttle Ty
coon" was in rehearsal at the tlme el lhe llre
recalls a rather queer Incident In connection
with the original production of the comle
opera In which lhe ewner and losse of tlie
theatre played the prlnelpal part. A young
man named Wlllard bpencer was the com
poser of tbe peculiar comic opera which has
seemed te appeal succcsstully only le lhe
queer musical tastes of Philadelpblana. In
the Ojiaker city the production has coined
money Just as rapidly as it lest tuoney every evory overy
whero el he.
As Its composer (Spencer naturally had
very much faith In the success of his oompj eompj oempj
s'tlon, but for a long tlme he lalled te llud
any ene else who had a Hke faith. He
haunted Mr. Brothrrten, who had Just made
a large sum el money through Hellar, tbe
magician, but who had retused te onture
any of his galnn In "Hie Lltlle Tycoon"
enterprise. Hpencer wouldn't be shaken elf.
He persisted In being heard and having his
work heard. At last llrotherten, having a
llttle spare lime, consentod le listen. He
rather liked thojlngle of seme of the aits.
Hut he knew nothing of music and se decided
net te take the piece. He left his ofllce for n
walk up Chestnut stroet. Hpencer clung te
him and talked "Little Tycoon" until
llrotherton was tired.
Millionaire Hlngerly, who takes a "llyer"
In theatrical enterprises as a sort of diversion
atler the cares Imposed upon him by his
paier, the Philadelphia Recerd, his Uolsteiu
cattle, and his fast horses, was coming down
the street.
"Hay, Hlngerly," said Mr. llrotherten,
"have you get anything en hand Just new ?"
"Nothing In particular," was the reply of
the capitalist.
"I've get a musical crank here with an
opera," said llrotherten, "unit It's just struck
me I'd Hke te try au experiment. De you
knew anything about music ?"
"Net I."
"Thoncemoup te the heuse with me.
This man Hencer'sget an opera he wants
me te produce I don't knew whether It's
geed or bad. He wants tne te produce it.
If It's geed I may de se, If you'll taken flyer
in It with me. It won't take mero that a
coupleof thousand dollars apiece, and II its
geed we'll make a geed thing out of It. I'm
going te take Hpencer up te the house and
let him try it ou my wife Hhe knew s a little
something about music My schome Is te
let Hpencer play It, let her act as audience,
whlle you and 1 will pese as Judges. It it
pleases her we'll produce It ; If It don't, we'll
let It alone. H jwncer.w ill you run the risk 7"
The composer falrlyjuniped at tbe chance.
Of co u r se he'd consent and ablde by the decis
ion of his audlenc of three. Would Cel.
SIngerly consent 7 He would and did, and
the trio went te Mr. Hrotherten's house.
Mrs. llrotherten, who, by the way, died a
couple et weokuage, wasn't admitted te the
secret She was simply told that a new comle
opera was te be tried. Would she listen te
it 7 Hhe would. Hhe laced the composer
while he sat at the piano, while her husband
and CeU Hlngerly watched her te eee what
elTect musle and dialogue produced. Hhe
was a lucky auditor for Spencer. She
laughed at seme of the dialogue, ap
plauded seme of the music, and asked that
several of the airs be repeated, and generally
onjejod the wboleatlalr, pesslblv because of
the nevelty of the situation. Wbatover It
might have beeu that amused her, it decided
the Tate of "The Llttle Tycoon." Tbejudges
accepted the decision et the single listener.
Hpencer's production was accepted then and
there.
Singularly enough, this queer method of
trying an ejiera proved te tu a most satlsfac
tery one in every way. Cel. Hlngerly and
Mr. llrotherten both made money out of
theallalr in spite of their losses en it outside
of Philadelphia, and Mr. Spencer's sbsroef
profits lrem it Is set down at lrem (i",000 te
(30 00".
