After his "Rags to filches" engagement (Jane who with Orloff, tbe Russian actor, and later la the original cast of "The Great Divide." His first Thanhouscr Is "Cardinal Richelieu's Ward," wherein he plays Francois, a part that will keep blm acting all the time. Wilkib Collins' weird novel, recently dramatised by Mmc. Alice Hindu-, has so in- terested Claire Whitney, the flotax leading Indy, Id problems of psychology, auto-sugges- tion and R[>lrltunll»m that she refuses to sleep in a room without a light burning, and yet spends most of her spare evenings listening to rapplngs of a tired spirit on a rickety table. While creating tbo name Bart of Wllkle Collins' dramatization, "The ircom Woman," Miss Whitney read up ■lightly on spiritualism, as tbe odd character drawn she was called upon to make was a strange mixture of tbe real and tbe unreal, with no definite solution of tbe peculiar prob- lem offered by tbe author. Now sbc Is "see- ing things at night" Archii Ellis, who was for years one of Hyde & Hehmon's resident managers has a Dim version of "Camllle" wltb Sarah liern- barrit In the title role which will bo shown at Hammersteln's next week.

As misfortunes never come single, the per- formers, canvassmen and others wero sur- prised on the morning of May 10 when they were informed by the treasurer and acting manager, Augustine Conant, that they would not be responsible for their bills, nor could they give them a penny on their bark sal- aries. This was pleasant, 1 assure you. A committee was appointed to call on tbe mnyor of the city and make a proposition to Tivc a variety entertainment In the City Hall, n reply the mayor gavo tbcm permission to show and the use of the above named ball for the small sum of ten dollars. Through the influence of several cltlieus, and the as- slstauco of several musicians who volun- teered from the Bangor Cornet Bund—and last, but not least, tho kind favor done by tho proprietors of The Banuor Dally Whtj Job office, in printing the program for Tbe occasion, free—they were able to give a show to a very fair house.

Mitcbcar, tho candy butcher." - John Robinson's Circus gave its first per- formance at Louisville, Ky., on May 27, and a correspondent says: "Such enthusiasm manifested I never witnessed over a show. It Is undoubtedly one of the best shows traveling this season. Miss Cordelia, eques- trienne, gave ber bareback performance and inlrly took tbe spectators by storm. Nowa- days we seldom bear applause under the can- vas for performers, but when this beautiful and daring equestrienne completed her sev- eral difficult feats she was repeatedly ap- plauded. She is, undoubtedly, great, riding backwards wltb as much ease on the hare- back as forwards, and leaps and goes through twenty balloons. When she falls from the horse she alights gracefully on ber feet and regains her place while tbe horse Is In mo- tion, with as much agility and ease as the most practiced male rider, and tbls act in- variably draws forth tbe loudest applause. She 1b only twelve years of age. Oeo. M. Kelly, the champion leaner of the world, is with tbls party, leaping bis twelve horses with ease. John Lolow, the clown, is uni- versally liked. The act. of W. H. Ashton end bis two boys, Frank and Willie, gym- nasts and contortionists, is excellent, Magi nicy or Carroll's Circus was at Hnys, Knit., on May 25. Writing from there on that date, a correspondent says: "Last night ■we came near having no circus. At about eight o'clock, fifty miles East of this place, one of the wheels on the stock car broke. Tbe engineer, noticing It, immediatoly whis- tled down brakes, but could not save the train, for in two minutes wo were all in tbe ditch together, making a conglomerated mass of horses, quarter poles, seat plank, prop- erty trunks and people, but fortunately no one was badly hurt, although at one time tbe fifteen homos we had in one car com- menced kicking so badly that we feared they wonld do Injury to themselves. Wo were compelled to stay on tbe prairie all night, nnd I tell you, Dob Johnson and John Naylor worked with a will—and, in fact, all parties connected wltb tho company tried to outvie each other in doing good work, We leave hero for Leavenworth on May 30. Tbls place Is tbe terminus of tbe Union I'a- rliic Railroad, and Maglnlcy ft Carroll's Cir- cus is the only company coming tbls far West by railroad, and I can assure you that were we well out of this place I, for one, would not have any desire to visit It again. If any other company desires visiting tbls iplneo I would advise them to come with a rifle In ono band, a Colt's six-shooter in the other, and a bowie-knife between bit teeth." H. Klnende, general performer, appears to have commenced tho circus season very un- favorably. Ho was with tho Wheeler Circus, when it collapsed without getting bis sal- ary. Then he shipped all his fakements by tbe steamer Oceantts to this city, and this steamer was destroyed by fire tbe next day after arriving here, burning up all of Mr. KlncaOe's wardrobe. Dan Rice and the representative manager of that portion of Forepaugh's Show to which the "Colonel" Is attached, have had a "conflict" in relation to authority. The ques- tion of "who's who" led to apbysleal demon- stration, which terminated In Hun having John Forepaugh and twelve of the "unwashed and unterrlncd culleys" held to ball. Tbe cul- mination of this pleasant little episode oc- curred at Cuba, N. Y.

Wild Animals on the Rampage.—Bailey's Circus and Menagerie, having concluded Us stay at Milwaukee, Wis., on May 30, left that city on Sunday morning, 31, for Water- town. About 12 o'clock tbe teams left the Junction of the Watertown and Waukesha ftikes and struck tho Pcwaukeo Road, which s in very bad condition. It Is supposed that the driver of the team containing tbo cages oi tho lioness and her whelps fell asleep, for his wagon passed over a bad ft.'nco In the planked road, careened and fell nto tbe ditch by tbe side of tbe road. The driver, being thrown, off, struck a stone by the roadside. Injuring him so badly that b.e let go bis borses, who started pulling tbe capsized cage with them and dragging it over the rough road. The animals in the cage, awakened from their slumbers, set up a terrible roar, which frightened tho borses, increasing their already rapid speed. For- tunately tbo horses broke from tbe wegon and, before going a great distance, were hauled up by one of the advance teams. Cpon attempting to lift the wagon back to Its ylaco It was found tbat the case of tbe llooeas was broken,^ind tho trainmaster or- dered It let down again until the tamer who had the cage in charge could be Bent for. In letting it down a part of the cage caught the leg of one of the whelps, badly Jamming it. Hitherto the HonesB had paid no atten- tion to tho men gathered about, but when the whelp set up a cry of pain the mother tpraiiR up In anger. This set the whelp to ottering the most plaintive roars, when the rago of the other beast became terrific. It dashed to the whelp, began licking it, and at tbe some time tittered those loud roars which have made It so famous. Becoming enraged at Its treat- ment, it dashed to and fro In Its narrow FORRESTER THE MODERN SPHINX Has Arisen from His Ashes Male and Fcmalo Professional Try- outs and Amateurs, Entertainers wanted, flood living: salaries.

A couple of the lions In an adjoining apartment became excited over the scene, and not only added to tbe confusion by their roars, but strove to break down tbe barrier between the two cages. All the beasts in the eapBlzed cages wore yelling and striving to get out, while those in vans which had baited near became frightened and were uttering tokens of alarm In their peculiar manner. The horses, too, of all tbe vans exhibited the utmost alarm, requiring the efforts of the drivers to look after tbcm. As soon as word came to the band wagon the camels and elephants were urged forward, and came up en a quick trot. But no sooner had the animals attached to the wagon come within the sound of the lion's voices than they exhibited tbe most abject fear. The elephant threw up its trunk and blew a terrific blast—a blast that startled all, even tbose who had before exhibited no signB of fear. Its keeper bravely kept by its side and attempted to quiet its fetrs, but the massive animal was thoroughly alarmed. It seemed to be Insane, and Its yells were full of agonized fear, filled with terror. The camels started—some attempted to break from their harness, while others fell down flat, all uttering a peculiar cry. The band men leaped out, and it was found that the lions must bo quieted or there would be a scene beyond the control of all. About this time the lion tamer came up and hastened to the cage. Tbe beasts had become so excited now that they scarcely noticed him, bat made redoubled efforts to get out Into the open olr. Had the tamer at this time lacked In courage, which seemed akin to ntter reck- lessness, the beasts would, no doubt, have succeeded In making their escape.
