As tlie tiroe for tlie open ing of tlie regu lar dramatic Reason comes en, one after toether of Uncle Sam's theatrical daughters announces that she mill pass the winter In the drawing room Instead of "en the beards," and It begins te leek as If then hole class of theatregoere-wlie-havo-favorltes will have Just eause te remark with one of their num ber i "Ah, well! we old fogies will have te leek around for new faces this h inter." There is Mrs. Tetter, for Instance, Mrs. retter, te be sure, has net lieen en the stnge se very long, and It is said by some that her popularity 11 uue mere, te the fact of her having lieen a leading society un man and te the no toriety s li e li a s gained through her connection with Kyrle Hellew, the English ncter, than te her goal acting, lint at the same time Mrs. Tetter has many mini Irers, and many e sigh of regret wn heard vv hen the announce ment.

Tlie time has been can celed, the company has been disliauded and the cestiiim-s hang unfinished in the wardrobes of the maker. Our Mary will net grace the stage of any American theatre this season. The new spapere are mid te be nt the bottom of this, tee. Tlie Bt. Ieuis pre is principally blamed. When the famous woman last npiH-ured In that city tlieci it les assailed her unmercifully. Net ene of tlie manifold beauties which the critics of ether cities bad sjcn in her acting could their St. Leuis brethren perceive.

Agnln ditl the R'l.'teni enter the battle strongly equlpicd by the accession of a new "star," and this time It was tho'streng pitcher of the Chicago club, Jehn O. Clarksen. It was Kreck, from the Northwestern league, that Cnpt. Ansen, dpeided upon mostly te take Clarksen's place. The Thiladelphias lest by death that remarkably fine pitcher and gen eral player, Fergusen, nnd his place could net be wholly filled, although the club was fortu nate te command the services of that promis premis ing young player, Sanders. The Detroit were bedly crippled, and this had n great deal te de with tlm low standing they had at thecloseof the season. Richard son was Injured In the leg nt the height of the season se that he was unable te rejoin the club. Ttiotnisen, of the same club, injured his arm be that he wns unable te threw, nud the players who were substituted for tlicse remarkably stteng men were tumble te fill their places, ami the tusult was that the club was uuahle te de that line work that wen for It the championship of the season previous. Pittsburg rolled upon Merris sud Onlvln te de most of Its pitching, and toward the end of the season secured First Raseman RocMey fiem the St. Iuls Whites, of the Western association. He proved te lw n great acqui sition te the club. Had he and Pitcher Sta ley, who Joined the club nt the snme time that Heckley was secured, lieen In the nlne from the first, the, I'ittsburgs would have mede n great bid for first honors. The Washington were net strong enough In their iorsennel te allow the pitchers confi dence enough te de geed wei k. In f net the ulna relied altogether tee much upon Us pitchers te win games. As was thoense In tlm campaign of 16-47, the Restniis eieiicd the season with n rush and filled their admirers with Jny by Winning 0 straight garni-, 4 rach in Philadelphia nnd Washington nud 1 in New Yerk.

The mouth of May showed some great changes. The Philadelphia rallied and wen 10 game out nf I'J, while the Resteu leek n great iliep, winning but 1 lout of 'J I. The Chicago took mid held the le-id after May ,1. Ou June t they had wen SI gaun.-i and lest hut (I, while the New Yolks had wen IT nnd let I'J te 17 wen und 13 lest for Detroit. In June the Chicago net only held thu lead but added te It, winning lu that mouth It out of VU, while the New Yerk reuld win but bleut of CI. The Detroit undo n goedsptut iu tills month, nnd had it net Ikvii for unfortun ate Injuries they would probably have main tained this gnit. They wen 10 games out of 3.', nud this gavu them a record up te July I of ill lelei les nnd I'.l defeats te 'Si victories and 17 defeats for Chleige. The New Yerk had wen SO game and lest 'il, and w Idle the ether club were well ahead the New Yerker were net out of the race.

Tlie nyiidlcnte winch lias clinrge of nil tbe anti Hell claims bring forward a great mass of new evidence, nnd tlie counsel for tlie government demands n new healing en tlie ground of fraud by the Hell com pany. Jehn IL llartlett, presldcntef the syndicate, claiming that the prier Inven tion wai by Daniel Drawhaugh, Is nt present very nctlve in pushing hi case at Washington, and the prospect new Is that the wlmle affair will fxi litigated from fttart te finish. Meanwhlle Daniel Drawliaugh re mains nt hi htimble home a fevv miles from Ilnnisbiirg, Pn., in cxtreme pov erty, and whether he ever gains any thing from the suit or net, he must be regarded ns n rcmarkable Inslunce of rnre mechanical talent, Industry nnd in vention. It is reasonably certain that four years Isefore the se called Bell tcleplione liccanie known Drawhaugh did invent nn ehctrlcal centrivance for transmit ting Bound, and It is very certain that he has invented many ingenious little con trivances which preve great ability. Daniel Drawliaugh vus Isern in 1827, In the villagoer Eberly'a Mills, Milltown, Cumberland county, Pa., and gained a very limited education in the very com mon schools of that time. When about 12 years of age he made n clock nnd an nutoinatie machine for sawing wagon fellees, nnd continued through his life te manifest a genius for mechanical inven tions. During the years 18T9 and 18C0 he conceived the idea of transmit ting nrtietilate Rjieech electrical ly through a tel egraph wire, and lie btarted tc inake a machine through which, il is alleged, con t'd nation could '&m lie carried en at a distance el 'xff. DANir.b DitAWtiAUGii. twenty mil en. This win ileiiu by the use of whnt ii known ns thu "carbon telephone," which is constructed en the same princi ple ns llie lllal.-e transmitter. Koine el these instruments, counsel Raid, were inaild ns early as 1S07. Prier te tlie war Drawhaugh invented u machine that was largely used for ag ricultural pm poses in tin) south, and when the war broke out he had a large amount of money ou ing te him that he wn net nble te collect. He was, thcie thcie fere, obliged te go Inte bankruptcy. Piein ISfiy te 1880 he was in extreme pevrity, with u large family, his only seurce of income was payment for the doing of odd mechanical work iu the houses and en the farms of his neigh Ikuh. The latter said of him that his hobby was electricity, and that he was a man of grent inventive genius, but it was frequently very hard work for him te Ikii-iew a dollar from nny of thcni. He has made nil electric clock which is of no value have as a curiosity, and invented u nail making machine, only te lind, ns uneducated inventors often de, that another man had long age applied the same piinciplc. Ile claims that he first designed the leleplione iu 18tlB, and liad made it a success four years liefere the Hell patent was taken out. Since the decision of thu supreme com t went ngalimt Iiiin he has been at weik en a tiaiisiuitter which ia te give warning el the nppieach of enemies by laud or sea. Hu claims that with this tlie soldier can sleep in his tent, and can tell by its ie miliar motion if thu enemy is near and prep.ue te give him a warm reception. The commander of a war vessel can ulsc tell the approach of any vessel, hostile or otherwise, the resistance of Ule watei en the approaching vessel causing siilll cieut fiictieu te establiah a current that will causn the indicator te sound the alarm. Of ceurse tlie criide mechanism of this new thing, which he calls the "Klcctrical Paradox," has lieen in use fiem timu im memorial; for the idea of putting ii steuf stiiiignreuiid a house at seme distance, for, nfiy one approaching te run against mm btait an attached licll oretheralarm, isenuthat would suggest itself te the rudest intellect. Kugitive negrees in southern Hwainpseften employed thisde thisde vice te guard their lairs against stealthy approach, ami iu iiiiaugiiig the strings en tellers se us te insure free action they often displ.ijed much Ingenuity. The use of clectiicity and making u contri centri centri vaneo of extieiuu sensitiveness are el coittse recent. The trial and it main facts are fiesh iu the publie mind, but some of the h culiar phases of it may lie repeated. Pout of the justices of thu supreme com t rilled for Hell, and a jxiint made much of in their opinions was that the facts set up by the Drawhaugh interest were se ex ex traerdiuaiy that, if ttue. they must have become notei ions. One judge set libido thu testimony of many witnesses with these werds: "Dravvbatigh was silent 80 far as tlie general public was concerned, when, if he had really dene uh'it these ituesses new think he did, he would most certainly have spoken." Tlie minority repeit was Digued by Justices llr.idley, Field und Harlan, and it adds net a little te the uncertainty of the case te learn that hut seven justices were silting and that they divided four te three. It was only natural that 6ticl a division should leave in the public mind an impression that Mr. Drawbaugh'scase was really lest en account of his poverty and comparative ignerance.which caused his slew and awkward methods. It is te Lhj noted also that tlie majority of four, as the court was, is u minority of a full court of nine. Tlie renewed suit was begun la the frtlnral .court in Bosten en.Minlf of, the United fctales ugumi llie Ameiicau Iteil Tclopheno company, and the representa tions of the government nllege fraud in the obtaining of the patents, and that seventy witnesses testified te hearing nr nr ticulate speech through Drawbaugh's telephone as early us 1S71. The court ruled against the preliminary pleas of the Hell company, 6enh(t case is virtu ally leeiK'ned. Meanwhile ene James Iieuth claims te have invented what he calls a stetho-teleplieue, dispensing with the mouthpiece nnd sound waves of the Hell instrument. Mr. Hell's patent was granted March 7, ISTO.anil the alleged "monopoly" will, therefore, continue till that ilate in 1893 unless the new trial results dilTciently from the llrst. The application was filed in the patent ollice Feb. II, 180, and in two hours thereafter Elisha Gray tiled a caveat alleging that fraud had been used In getting knowledge of his instrument previously placed in the examiner's room. Daniel Drawbaugh's application was tiled July 21, 1SS0, and alleged that he began his experiments in 1802 and had a perfect working instrument iu op eration in January, 1S73, n year befere Dr. Hell claimed te have dene se.

OBSERVATIONS ON WHIST. Tlm Test Which Every Whist riiiyet Should lie fiiilijeeleil Te. Tlie test of every whist player I his nbllity te accommodate hlviself te his partner's play. 1 have known a geed whist player, familiar veth the point of the gnme and with the nbllity and experience te use them te advan advan tuge with n geed partner, tnvuiiably use tin signal when hew a plavlng with a partner whom he was jierfectly well aware didn't knew what the signal wns. There Is in America much mere se than In England a vast lnxly of traveler who amuse tbcmselre during the hours jwssed ou the train with playing whist. Among these players there will occasionally be found a star of the first mngnitude, and there will also be found n great many crnnks. New the geed player will nccommedato himself every time te hl)Kirtner's play, and It would be thu most foolish thing hi the world for him te de otherwise. Sometime, bow ever, the difference between the playing of part ner i se gi-eat that the ln-st player Incomes exasperated, nad gives vent te It, if net In a IKillte, In a forcible manner. Here I n story told by a gentleman: "I wn Inveigled Inte n gnme ou the train net long nge," said he; "my oppemnts were nn 'old timer' nnd a geed nntured gentleman, who perhaps did net piny as well as hi part ner. The elderly man made all lerts of dis agreeable criticism, becoming finally dis gusted with the geed nnttu cd man's play. When a station was leached a lull occurred In the game. Soen a Imy rushed in with a telegram and called loudly for Mr. Rlis.. He walked down the nlsle until he came te the whist party (we were all strangers te each ether) when the irascible old gentleman said te the boy and pointing te his irtner, 'Here he Is Bliss.' Tlie ether gentleman looked up In nstenlsliment, saying: 'Jly iiame Is net Rlis.' 'Well, then,' replied the old man, 'it ought te be, for Ignorance is bliss.' " Teil tiANSINO.

STRIPED BILK WAttP HENRIETTA DHES3. The Inverness plaids are mero than usually fine anil soft this season, and in clan colors ns well as In new devices in such patterns, but nil very large figured. Tlie French quadrille plaids are very beautiful and softer in tene than the Scotch, which, though they de net all fellow the clan colors, still show a cer tain crudity of colorings that is net se pleasant te the eye. There nre hundreds of varieties of wool en goods in self colors, nnd then there are ethers witli n woven bright thread which shows itself here and thcre a always unespected places. They uiake one think of the mourning goods they used te call "gleam of comfort," which was black, with here and thcre n yellow thread. Many of these woolens are dashed with bright colors in irregular flecks, ns though (lakes of geld had fallen there or the wind blown petals of gay flowers. The effect is certainly artistic nnd pretty, nnu vveiuu oe sunsuiny en a dark day. Vulture is "the" new color par excel lence, and will undoubtedly "go" well. It is exactly the shade of a vulture's back, with the sort of a dusty bloom all ever the surface, whether it is opera cloth, cashmere, camel's hair or twill. It is very cunningly woven. The silk and wool mixed goods arc te be very largely worn, paiticularly the Pripstly Henrietta silk warps, in black nnd grays, in plain and brocaded weaves, and in the stripes and chevren patterns which were introduced last season. The black silk warp with liny brocaded flowers is perfectly exquisite, and these goods are se durable that they are still mere desirable, for, like black silk, they leek licli nnd beautiful until the last thread is gene. These Henriettas differ from the ull wee) Henriettas, ns tlie warp is pure silk and the filling is wool, which gives them a beautiful finish and feel. They have a new line of gray and while stripes this season, ami n new black railed Lustrine, with a lieautiful surface. This goods costs SI. 23 per yard, forty-four inches wide, hut it lasts al most forever. The striped dress here with is a specimen, nnd I give this as ene of tlie prettiest designs of the season. It is ene that, with the help of the pict ure, any lady can inake for herself. The walr.t is quite a simple basque, tlie front gathered a little te simulate a full vest. The velvet cellar and wide pocket flaps with the sash give it n distinctive direo diree direo teiro style, with little trouble. Theskirt, trimming and sash can be of velvet or the beautiful new open work castle braid and s.uli te match, which can be gotten in sets. Tlie ether diess is of tlie dotted net, which is new n settled fashion, worn ever a silk slip. Thee lace dresses are most simple, but very dressy. The front should be of uioire or plain silk, with bits of ribbon, black or colored, accord ing te fancy. Any lady can make n lace dressaccerillng te this model at n cost of nleut$l if she happens te have an old silk skirt, which is just ns geed for a foundation as a new one. WtcJis-i-Ja DAINTY I-ACr. DINNEIt AND nVCNINO MIESS The openings for bonnets and made up goods take place generally during this month, and I am caving money te buy a pair of smoked spectacles, as the prospect is that every bonnet will 1x3 se biilliant that it will cast a hale around the wearer's head, and thus they will dazzle the eyes, llut they nre net te be se large nor nggrcssive as be be be eoeo. I am told that there is te be much line wrought hand work en bonnets in the way of shirring and embroidery. This, however, is only a scare, like the annual destruction of the peach crop or the ice harvest, and is dene te keep the price up in spite of the decrease in size, or at least that is the unbiased opinion cf Olive Uakpeb.
