t AMUSEMENTS.
Mias Mather'* Lady Macbeth.
It were wise In the management of Mar
garet Mather to reserve for the close of her ;
tngagcment & drama of the profound depth
md heroic qualities of "Macbeth;', 1 a drama, !
moreover, which ranks foremost in the long
Us£of splendid creations bequeathed by their
Illustrious author to forever astonish and \
challenge the* admiration of man- ■
kind. The roles 'in which she J
bad hitherto appeared were •dtnir- |
tble in themselves, but in no sense do they j
afford the test presented by this towering and
majestic character, which has been the psy
chological delight and study of the beet intel
lects for nearly two centuries. The character
of lady Macbeth as portrayed by Miss Mather
last night won the approbation of the audi
ence by both the dramatic power with which
it was presented and by force of the novel
light in which the character was
teen. The Lady Macbeth of Miss
Mather is in such marked contrast to
her other characters that the auditor mar
vels at the transformation, and, from a
purely intellectual standpoint, it displays the
gradations of her progress as a student of
Shakespeare and the limitations, If the word
may be allowed, of her studies. The picture
presented was that of a loving, strong-willed,
affectionate wife, with no other purpose save
that of achieving her -husband's ambition,
and to this intent she rises to the fearful re
quirements of the occasion, and,
by the force of her own dauntless
will ate shames him into committing the
murder. The shading of the character is
exquisite and on the whole it is bbarply out
lined, the tones and reflections of the voice
and the gestures being well modulated to a
legitimate climax. A notable innovation
its made in the bleep walking scene, the
somnambulist in this instance being awak
ened by a falling chair, and realizing that
i*he has been discovered, she
Jails, shrieking, to the Door in a swoon.
The i in personation was replete with subtle
ehadlngs and fine points, but the lateness of
the hour makes an extended criticism Im
possible. Mr. Lerick made a manly and
forcible Macbeth, but we think he has been
been to better advantage in other play* than
this. The Kacdofl of Mr. Pudding was
good, and the cast was very fair throughout.
The \lloneymoon Matinee.
. In point of pure and simple
enjoyment the matinee perform
ance at the Grand yesterday was the most
commendable of anything presented during
the Margaret Mather engagement. The at
traction was John Tobin's too-neglected and
famous comedy, "The Honeymoon," with
Miss Mather as Juliana, supplemented by a
very clever support. The performance pre
sented Miss Mather in the new light •>! pure
comedy and she bore the test admirably.
There is afrcshness and charm about the plot
and incidents of "The Honeymoon" which
makes it seem 6trange indeed that
comedies of Mich enchanting interest are
not more frequently substituted for the
heavy and often times turgid melodramas,
or what is equally as bad, the vapid and
meantnetest society plays of the present
day. The role of Juliana was exquisitely
taken by Miss Mather, her impersonation be
Ing characterized by an airy grace and
captivating simplicity and fondness not to
be observed in her more exciting and heroic
roles. The audience was large and appreci
ative, and no more thoroughly artistic per
formance has been seen on the St. Paul 6tagc
for a long time. As aid, the support was
good,, the assumptions of Mr. Levick, Mr.
Pauldiug. Mr. Davidge and the ladies being
especially worthy of praise.
, ' Michael Stroyoff.
Commencing to-morrow evening*, will be
presented for the first time in St. Paul the
grand spectacular and realistic melodrama,
"Michael Strocolt." The play Is founded on
recent events in_Russia, and it vividly por
trays a scries of romantic episodes in the his
tory of the Czars. The scenic effects and
appointments are said to be the most real
istic, graphic and beautiful yet seen in this
period of spectacular effects, and beyond
doubt a rich treat is in store for the amuse
ment lovers of St. Paul.
The London Standard speaks of the play
as follows: It may be doubted whether any
play recently produced at this or any other
house has found its way so directly to the
public heart as has "Michael .Strogoff," given
for the first time yesterday. From the mo
ment when, at the close of the first act, the
curtain fell upon a situation equally novel
and effective, to the close of a scene, the
actors were summoned before the curtain,
and Mr. Warner was at one time compelled
to .request the audience to reserve till the
fate of the piece was definitely settled, a de
mand for the reappearance of the authors
prematurely put forth. The triumph thus
delayed was not lost.
The company is a strong one as will be
seen by the following cast:

John Me.Cullouffh.
A writer In the Chicago Xewt Letter says he
jaw John McCullough the other day in New
York at Delmqnico's. He looked a trifle
thin, but he took my hand and chatted with
me In a manner which made it difficult for
me to realize that there could possibly be
much truth in the stories which are current
as to his mental trouble. At any rate there
was nothing either in his manner or his con
versation to denote that there was anything
wrong with his head— far , from it. He
looked ill, and he probably is ill, but I don't
believe a word about his having softening ol
the brain. It is decided, however, both b)
himself and his friends, that he will give Of
anting for this season at least, and there is
apparently a good deal of confidence fell
among those, who arc interested in his wel
fare that the much needed rest will put him
firmly on his feet again. In the ineanwhilt
he appears to be taking life easy and enjoy
ing himself thoroughly.

THE WAR OF RATES.
The Fare Between New York and
Chicago Becoming: Merely
Nominal
[Special Teleeram to the <;io»>«. j
< uk MS, Nov. I—The1 — The war in west bound pas
senger rates from Sew York Is Increasing in bit
terness. The conservation which baa character
ized the coufllct for several weeks has been
10-t .tit of in the fierceness of the fight,
until row the bars of restraint are
all let down. Yesterday the New York Central
cut to 10. M from New York to Chicago, and the
We*t Shore and Erio dropped to $13.50. The
Central to-day met the latter rate and the Wcs:
Shore and Erie cut to $12. The Central people
have now announced their purpose of meeting
any rate made, and as the West Shore and
Erie insist upon observing their
right to a $1.50 differential, there- la
no reason to hope that a rapid reduction at
$1,50 stages can be avoided. It Is freely pre
dicted that a $3 rate from New York to Chicago
will prevail heavy this week.
An attempt to restore east bound rates was
again made to-day. The general passenger agents
met at Cotumitcioner Moore's office
to take up the matter where it was dropped
Wednesday. Mr. Moore submitted an agree
ment which he bad prepared, and it met with
the approval of all the roads but the Baltimore A
Ohio. It provides for a complete restoration of
east bound rates to the tariff, and contained
provitions making it an exceedingly strong docu
ment.
Mr. Dearborn, representing the Baltimore &■
Ohio, stated that he was still without instruc
tions, and an adjournment was taken until Mon
day.
The apparent reluctance of General Passenger
Agent I iii, of the Baltimore & Ohio, to join in
the movement to restore .-is regarded with
uneadnces, and it is feared that his management
porpose to indulge in a little retaliation before
they forgive or forget the action of the Pennsyl
vania in shutting their train* out of New York.

Mlm Hoy ton's Case c|. Skin and Blood
Disease. The Most Remarkable
Cur* on Record.
I have been afflicted for one year and nine
month* with what the docten called rcpia. I
was taken with dreadful pains in my head and
body, my feet became so nwollen that I was
perfectly helpless, cores broke ont on my body
aud face, my appetite left me. I could not Bleep
niirLt •, I lost flesh, and soon became so wretched
that I longed to die. In this condition, after try
ing varions remedies, I engaged two homoeopathic
physicians. Dr. . and Dr. . and was under
their treatment a year and a half, and failed to
get even temporary relief. My dl*ea«e grew
worse; my to lie ring* became terrible. I tried
"faith cure," but it was nnsnccesi foL Kind
friends then tried to get me into the City Hospital,
but the superintendent, after seeing me, declined
to admit such a case as mine there, and said 1
would not lire six weeks unless 1 was relieved.
on the SOth of April last, I sent for Dr. F. M.
Blod<rctt of Boston. He came, and after an
examination pronounced my case the most hope
less he had ever wintessed. My photograph,
which was then taken at his desire, . while I lay
propped up in bed, shows the disease as it ap
peared on my face; but no picture could possibly
indicate bow much pain and suffering I endured.
The eruption bad Increased to great burrowing,
foul-smelling sores, from which a reddi«h matter
constantly poured, forming crusts of great thick
ness. Other sores appeared on various parts of
my body, and I became so weak that I could not
leave my bed.
In this condition, and by advice of Dr. Blodsett,
I began the use of CfTH.cn* Kkmeuiks. the
Resolvent Internally three times per day, and
the Cuticcba. and Crncciu Soap externally. In
just sixty days, i.e., June 20, 1 was so far recovered
as to be able to go alone to the trallery and *lt
for my photograph, which shows more than words
can do the wonderful cure these remedies bare
wrought In less than nine weeks. The sores
bare all disappeared from my face and body, my
appetite and strength have retain**; lam free
from pain, my flesh is Increasing, and I can go
about and enjoy life. My restoration to perfect
health is now only a matter of a few week*. My
friends think my cure miraculous; and I shall
never cease to feel that the % Ctmctnu.ltEXK9iEs
have tared my life.
