Tho houso was literally packed from pit to dome, and to say that the howling audience thoroughly onjoyed itself for throe hours is putting it only too ralldiy. To use n popular phrase, tho show was "way out of sight," and tho rousing applauso accorded tho members of tho company was tbo most hilarious over beard in Greenshurg. Tho show throughout was a clean delineation of negro minstrelsy, minus tbo various ohjoctionablo features found in a show of that kind.

WAS LUKEWARM THE DEMOORATSDIDN'TR ALLY LAST NIGHT. QUITE GOOL AFFAIR ALL AROUND. If tho Domocrats aro Enthusiastic Over tho Prospects of tho Ap proaching Election Thoy Fall to Show It. The first demonstration tho Democrats havo hold In town this full, and tho only ono thoy will hold this campaign, was Bprung upon tho pooplo last night and was anything but a rally. Tho old-time hustlo and bustlo was not apparent, there woro no cheers, tho candidates and visiting speakers slid into town through a stillness that indicated a lack of enthusiasm and tbo whole tbo affair was exceedingly luko warm. Hon. Robort E. Wrinht, tho Democratic candidate for Auditor General, arrived in town early In tho ovenm, accompanied by ox-JudRO Harvey, of Lehigh, and took quarters at tho Ferguson Ilnuso. Hon. A. L. Tilden, Democratic candldato forStato Treasurer, arrived later, alono, and with but ono townsman to escort him to "tho house of my friends," as Johnny Nash termed Forguson's opera houso in his ad dress. Shortly after 8 o'clock tbo visitorF,headcd by tho T. A. B. band and escorted by about thirty homo and county Democrats, inarched from tho Ferguson Houso, clown Main street to tbo theatre Whon tho visitors ontored tho theatro it was empty, A fow inlnutos after their arrival about ono hundred Democrat! and Republicans entered and took scats. Meanwhile the band tried todiscourso some cheerful music In front of tho theatre. Tho visitors and tholr escorts stood between tho wings on tbo slago, ovidontly depressed by the meagienoss of tho attendance. Hustlers wero sent out and tho band continued play ing until finally the lower part of tho thoatre became somewhat filled, but it was a poor houso. Tho band tbon entered tho theatre and thoro was more music and tho crowd swollod a. little moro, tho arrivals being principally boys. AVhen Harry Muldoon thought tbo crowd was as largo as tho band could mako it ho stoppod to tho footlights and introduced Hon. Robert Emmet Wright, of Allontown, as tho first speaker. Tho montion of tho speakers name pro voked a murmur of applause. Tho recep tion was not enthusiastic. It was not cordial. It was applause such as peoplo givo when thoy fool bound to show respect. Mr. Wright ovidontly sized up tbo re ception and did not feol callod upon to relor to it. Ho oponod his address by referring to tho grandour of tho sconory and tho hum of industry in this tectior ! and told of how bo located in Mahanoy Piano when theso parts were a vast wilder ness. His visit last night was tbo first since that timo. After painting "old Schuylkill" in radiant colors to got tho audionco in accord with him, Mr. Wright turnod his attention to Bardslny and tried his best to show how Sonalor Quay and othor Repub lienns had conspired with tho convict to rob tho Commonwealth. Tho address was a lecturo on Bardsley and Quay. It was Interesting and, in many instances, amus ing. H tried to illustrato tho method by which Bardsley robbed tbo Commonwealth aud charged Quay and tho Ropublican party with being co-conspirators. In one part of his address Mr. Wright said, "That Grogg and Morrison may bo puro men I would not question for a mo ment," but ho asserted that they would not, if elected, bo ablo to withstand tho pressure of the bossos. Tho speakorthon asked bow many Republicans thoro wero In tho hall and how many would support hlmsolf and tho farmer from Erie. He wuntod to know if thoy woro not ashamed of Quay and tho Ropublican party and appealed to them to Join the Democratlo party in tho causo of good government. In concluding bis remarks to tho Repub licans Mr. Wright referred to tho failure of Gen. Hastings to securo tbo Re publican nomination for Govornor and said, "The Republican party was a great party, and it is now (somo hardshell Dem ocrats on tho stage squirmed in their seats) but wo beliovo you aro wrong In the prin ciples (smiles from ,the hardsholls) you would apply to tha government. And yot we know you are just as honest as wo are." The squirming of the hardsholls was here ronowed with vigor, but tbo speaker added, "But thoso men (tbo bossos) havo put to tho front mon who do not ropresnnt you, Hastings will uovor bo nominated for Gov ornor unless by consent of tho bossos, Hastings will bo a boss candidate noxt year, because ho has now boon ..mouldod to suit tho wishes ot tho bosses." Ex-Judgo Harvey was tbo noxt speaker. His address, llko W right's, was Quay I Robbery I Magoo I Robbery I Cameronl Robbery I Republican party.l Robbery I "Squaro Timbor" Noyns, bo said, was elected Stato Treasurer by tbo Domocrats, but ho was a poor, weak old man and could not withstand the pres uro brought to bear by Quay and tho other Republicans. Judge Harvey was quite funny at time, vorv fortunately for tho audienco for his re view or tho threadbare charges against Quay, Boyer and McCamant would havo been exceedingly tiresome had ho not in jected somelfunny stories. Ho told a story of a man who had n coon ho wished to got rid 01, but was loo tender-hearted to kill it. Ho met throo boys of extraordinary intel ligence and docidod to give tho coon to ono who would givo tho most satisfactory an- swor. '"Why aro you a Domocrat?'" ho asked tbo first boy. The answor was, "be cause I am In favor ol a government of tho peoplo, by tho peoplo and for tho pooplo." J.ho second boy was asked, "Why aro you aGreenbaeker?" Tho answer was. "Bo- cause our folks havo no monoy and I want tbo government to mako paper money, so wo may all havo plenty." Tho third boy was then asked, "Why aro you a Republi can ?" Tho ready answer was, "Bocauso I want tho coon." "And that is tho way with tho Republi cans," continued the ppeuker, "they aro Republicans because thoy want tho offices and tho spoils." Hon. A. L. Tilden, ol Erio, tho Demo cratic candidato for Stato Treasurer, was next intr duced. Mr. Tilden was roferrod to during tho ovoning astlio "fartnor candl duto." As a public speaker ho is a genuina- hay seeder. J"hn A. Nash, Eq., of Poltsvillo, mado tho closing address and caused signs of relief when ho announced that ho would' not speak of Quay, otc. He directed hig attontion to the Democratic county ticket and said ho favored tho election of every candidato on it. Ho said he had nothing to say against Judge Oroen ; that ho was a gontlemnn, a scholar, an honest and im partial man, and an ablojurist. But what ho said ot Judgo Green ho wantod applied, to Candidato Wadiingor. Ho also spoka favorably of Deputy ShcriiT Smith and said ho had no doubt that gentloman would mako an excollont Sheriff, but ho also had' tbo same confidence in Woll. Aftcrspeak ing for tho rost of tho ticket Johnny jumped into a discussion of why a constitutional convonticn should bo hold. Ho floundered' Bomewhat in making his explanations, but finally eucceedod in getting at tho end of his ropo and flarry Muldoon closed tho meeting by urging that tho whole Demo cratic ticket bo supported on oloction day.
