both sides was very heavy and ham running and chasing after bird pounded belle made up the features of the occasion The locals led off by scoring one In the first inning In the third the visitors begin to touch off their fireworks and during the remainder of the game there was a magnificent display of pyrotechnics At the end of the fifth Inning the score stood 7 to I in favor of the visitors Then the locals saw the demand for a spurt and to the tune of singles doubles and triples etHt four scorm prancing around the imam Eastlialli I lie little pitcher who was ubstituted on the score cards

American stage a good all-round satisfactory cute The audience wu large and represeutative that witnessed the excellent production following the unfolding of a pathetic plot with a pent-up interest and an abeorbed attention Messrs Couldock Cedric Hope Leslie Allen and Min Viola Allen have Intelligently grasped aud skillfully portray the fine points and basis of action of what is conftweedly one of the moat harmonious pmductions of the Madloon Square during its creditable caretsr of healthful lutluence In theatrieal matters The keystone of "Saints and Sinners" is the mcrilictal nature of a wonian's love the inevitable lutitience of that love even at great cost against her judgment and in opposition to ism own wishes A young village girl has met a fellow with an exterior that attractaand a power of mentality that fascluateo her In the very budding of this find reeling of love OM recoguires the imminence of danger sends word to a die-carded lover that she will marry him tom the sante day to a picnic encounters there the schemer against her fair name repulses ae she yields resists and gives way and overcome by the power of the subtle sensation that is pohiting her deetiny falls upon iiis shoulder and confemee to him and to herself at once that she lovm him The climax of her destiny comes an easily that the audience feels the consummation of inevitable results doubtfully reluctantly irresistibly The lover escorta her to the depot from their trysting place in the woods and without her knowledge conveys her to London ami thence without stopping to Edinburgh There she lives a mouth of agomiziug suspense believing she is lawfully his wife by the law of Scotland and pleading In vain for a public avowal of their union It does not come and in the third act she is brought to face the terrors of her situation by the knowledge that her supp000t busbaud is a married man She resolves to leave him and a very strong bit of acting occurs between the two in which ehame fear of going home and the old love aid the schemer and he conquers again gaining her cAmeent to fly with him to India where he mud join his regiment just as her father appears npon the scene having found her at last and in a very affecting scene with her alone draws her filet love to the surface and she flies from her lover's roof and goes home with the parent Here the acting of Miss Allen ic brought virtually to a dae as Is that of Mr Cedric Hope as Capt Pamhaws The former fulfills in all particulars of effective stage work and in personnel the rmuirements of the role and in the second act depicts the misery of an unwilling love with painful realism Mr Hope is a strong actor His facial play Is far reaching and his manner of reading the Hum of his role is of that quiet order that is becoming a marked characteristic of the American as It is of the French school of acting The meaning and purpose of the character were perfectly and entirely brought easily into view and this le the utmost of the business of acting By no intention Mr Couidock Is referred to last Always an interesting actor he is remarkably true to this trait in the role of the aged minister He is a picture of simple and heroic moral grandeur conceiving the nobility of truth and impressigg its staple quality of strength through all the phases of life upon his audience to the straining point of tearful attention He has Overreached all actors before the public in roles of this characters and within this limitation he cannot be excelled It will be long before his equal is produced Thts interesting performance will be repeated twice to- Herrmann at the Masonic next Monday oboes" width Is OW gulag Da with woo Untied activity mob remarks passed and the press 'otiose have is a Letter of sourer beim made mostly by Americans and it moat be gratifying to the good folks of Nashville to note the fart that the sharp Mt men to New York sod all through the Northern States are keenty awake to the fact that the South is not awakening but has already awoke from the lethargy kilo which she wao thrown by an uncafied for war I say it must beeepestally gratifying to them insomuch ma their city is illooken of in such a way as to lead one to believe that in the near future Nashville may become the recognized capital of the Southern Stake At the provietil stage of things a few remarks from a strauger may not appear entirely out of place eViin although the writer be a "greenhorn" and freoh from the other side of the Atlantic Although I have only been in the city for a few weeks the formed during my short stay have been very favorable to both place aud people It would be hard Indeed to count acrou more courteous well-bred men or see more handsome W01111111) than are to be found here As regards the city Itself it may be a little scattered but the situation I beyond queotion very fine the bottom in many Intancr elegant and showing not a littie artistic lute in their construction while front its postai-4i it cannot fati to be healt)4 The capitol and eutotnhouse twe of the moat prominent buildings are striking edifices the latter I believe being considered one of the handoonieet buildings of the sort in America and coinpariug favorably with an)thing similar I have seen In Europe From an educational point of view Naithville could scarcely be more highly endowed In sentland I had liemd of the Vanderbilt and Fisk and many a time have chimed into the chorus of "Carry Me Back to old Tenneuee" at a time when I bad no thought of leaving my native country and pushing my fortune in the Southern States of the New World That Nashville will take the lead In more than conimerce I do not doubt and there is no reason why she should not rank high io literature and art With a refined and cultivated people there must be a strong artistic fooling which when we take into consider' ation her prosperity in the past and the prospect of atilt greater prosperity in the futtite must sooner or later burst into bloom producing men and women whou nemes will be handed down to posterity as having achieved greatnees in the quieter and more sequestered paths of life With a navigable river and good railway connection to facilitate the shipment of her commercial wealth an well as widen her relations with other States her proopects could not look brighter With the influx of talent and "push" from outside sources coupled with the ability and enterprise of her own sons there is no queetion but that she will come to the front "Booms" may rise and fall As a stranger I am not qualified to speak on matters relating to or affecting real estate but so far as I am able to Judge from what I have seen and heard the present activity in that line is only an indication of how matters stand and a precursor of still greater things What I am surmised at la that there is eo little migration in this the migration of the mass but of well Informed men with capital or brains or better still with both In Scotland and England at the present moment there is great depreasion both in the commercil and agricultural Many with capital rather than see their money wasted in unprofitable and losieg Investments are to shift their camp If they only saw their way clear to better thentaelves In the humbler walks of life there are strong hands idle and skilled workmen thrown out of employment by the general depression who tivould only be too glad to quit their homes as many have already dorm in order to find a comfortable living elsewhere It seems to me that in the near future there will be a good field for some of them here I have spoken strongly and may be too sanguine bull hope the first impreeeions of a new comer may not be ill-founded and that the city of Nashville may realize the hopes of her most aspiring Let them be up and doing and not found lacking in the necetetary elements to all success enterprise and co-operation YESTERDAY'S TRANSFERS Hilland wife to A Spurr land In

it ultimately became of prime The present activity in securities will be likewise followed by increased activlty in real property There is an undercurrent of opinion thnt the next mixt" days will witness a boom in real eetate which will far surpass anything seen up to date As long as property in Nashville Is not valued at more than one-half or one-third as bleb as property similarly situated in other cities possessing advantages inferior to those of Nashville it will necessarily occur that the Malty market will be brisk An important suburban improvement was determined upon yesterday Belmont avenue from the corporate limits to Belmont is to be at once graded and metalled and oonverted into a handsome thoroughfare seventy feet wide from Central avenue to the terminus The property

unwise and impolitic Instead of increas fug the State's revenue as intended it will have the contrail effect and also result in breaking up the businem of number of 'worthy Citizens The activity of the reel estate market is sustained by the number of grata in the business because each man is f14 striving to effect mlee and attract rm chaser If they are driven from the mar- -J Bet by burdensome taxation a few of the -wmalthier and older established agents will monopolize the business It is believed by 4 the well-informed that these gentlemen are the promoters of the scheme and are urg ing the Legislature to maks the tax as heavy poesible 'There is no justice hi this and the Legislature ought to hesitate before it commits itself to so unjust a measure as they are already amply taxed "A
