It was a. triumphant night for oil con
cerned at the Academy. First of all, for
Hoipn Grantly, who made h'cr first bow
as a theatrical star to a . Richmond siudl
enoo. She was, indeed, a revelation. A
sweeter, more ingenuous has
iirvcr bven ?een in this city., The play
ers suiTbundingfMiss Grantly also scored
fc triamph, and last, but not least, that
clever playwright, Martha Morton, add
ed fresh laurels to her fame, as "Her
L-ord and Master." the vehicle sclecfcd
by Ivliss Grantly in which to make her
ficllar debut, is tho product of/that
gifted w-onian's pon.
Xoj. that the play was new. It. had
already passed muster of the metropoli
tan critics wlicn it was presented by
]I t rlu>rt Kclcoy and Effic Shannon, ana
It canie c.Jt unscathed by a single ad
verse opinion. - ■■.■
PLAY WAS WHOLESOME.
■"Her Lord and "Mastvr," while not a"
frr.it play, is a wholepome and entor
tni;)ii!fir one. Tt is a simple story of love
jhat had iti beginning under." the sriow
•lsd peaks of the Rockies, and its
jsippy denouement in a London drawing-
rooro. It was a tafc of a young woman's
life — a story of a young woman's heart.
It pave scope for the dipplaj'al of the
caprices, whims, mood?, and tenses of a
peuilant, untutored) untrained girl.: who 1
was suddenly transported from her na
tive America to become tfcv wife of an.
English Lord with ancestral environ
ments and straighl-lncPd traditions.
It pictured all the varying phases of
this young: Rlrl's life. Tt gave scope for
r. diversity of •!- passions and". impulses.
It le>3 its auditors to the. very brink of
nntrimor.lal disruption, only !to Ita'd
♦hem bnck attain to rtOTn"Ptic felicity.
JTi'ere .' -"sras no depi^ninET villain. man or
rrr.rr.an with a part. alas, too often found
Jn t}ie morl*>m society drama. No. it had
nun' 1 of these-j'.but it was a pure, sweet.
Inve story, one that a man rn'^rht de
licht to taVv hi? sister or sweetheart to
witness anr] be plar] thnt she wns there.
Thi? was the piny in which Miss
f?rantly appeared ; this wa? the produc
tion Ihnt rol>b'tl ihp- rope of its prnver-
Vi'r] ihorn. nn<l sent' its auditors home
fcpl'pr. purer-mln<i"ri. nnd happier men
and worr>»Ti for hrvi-ncr peen it. V/i
STAR A REVET.ATTON". .
Jk'ifis Grantly was pleasantly remem
bered to Richmond by the very clever
work she did last season with Charles
I>. Tlanford in thy "Taming of the
Shrew." But last night she was a reve
latlon to even 'j those who had seen her
past excellent work. She is undoubtedly
more than a clever actress. Sire read
her lines with distinctness and under
standing:/ She was painstaking, careful,
conscientious, and above all natural.
She possesses many of the characteristics
of "Annie Russell, both in voice and
action. "Indiana Stillwater" in her
hands was almost a creation. She was
suited to the part, gave it a ! fine touch,
and employed all her art in the emo
tional, which she did not overdo. Sho
was pretty, winpom'o. captivating.
COMPANY CAPABLE.
Of the company, Lionel Adams, who
is known for his clever work with .. Miss
Marlowe., was a pleasing counterpart for
the star. While-lie has one or two -man
nerisms that seemed to border on affec
tation. 3t cannot be dvnied that he is a
polished actor. William J. Shea. a's'Jen
ninq-F. an old servant, whilellftfrtind only
a "bTt," conclusively demonstrated that
he was a character actor of no mean
ability. The other parts were in capable
han'ls. The scenery was the pame ueed
by the Ivelcey-Shannon Company in the
Broadway, production, r.nd was entirely
adequate. .
Tn conclusion, it 5p seldom ;,thaV Rich
mond has the opportunity of witnocß=ing
a better play than "Her Lortf and Mas
ter" or seeine: a more charming actrtss
than Miss Helen Grantly.
Paul Gilmore will appear at the Acade
my to-night in Haddon Chambers's di
lightfii] coriiedy. "The Tyranny of Tears."
JVIr. Gilmore has trod the boards less
than a decade, but five years of that pe
riod have been devoted to starring tours
In romantic and other plays. There is
one scene in "The Tyranny of Tears"
where the hero's wife is about to leave
him unless he discharges Miss Hyacinth
Woodward, his secretary, who is invalu
able to him, in obediehee to her caprice.
Tlie chivalry of the man forbids his
Fending the" girl back to an unhappy
and uncomfortable home, since she Is
not at fault. He knows the. unreasoning
obstinacy of his wife's character, feels
sure she will execute . ner threat, but
displays a winsome simplicity and wholo-
Borne courage through the entire scene,
together with a. sense of humor that in
no way disturbs the earnestness of pur
pose or pense of duty, which are domi
nating him.'.
The company chosen by Jules Murry to
interpret this comedy is a notably pro
fieioni one, and includes several actresses
whose talent is equalled by their beauty.
■TYRANNY OF TEARS" TO-NIGHT.
Charles B. Hanford will be at the Acad
rmy to-morrow, Saturday, matinee and
nighti in superb Shakesperean revivals.
At the matinee he will present "The
Taming of the Shrew," his past year's
success, in a new dress, and at night his
magnificent new scenic pageant, "Much
Ado About Nothing." Mr. Hanford -is so
wc-11 known here that he needs little or
no introduction. lie began his tour this
season in Lynchburg a few nights ago,
and has been remarkably successsful. He
will play over the Loath Circuit as a
starting point of a southern tour, from
which he hay every reason to expect great
things;
Jt has been stated on .reliable authority
that Mr. Hanford has been more lavish
than ever in his preparation for the re
vival of this season. The stage settings
will be found superb, and the supporting
company is by all odds the best that has
ever been seen in his. support.

has its next sitting for registration next
fall.
At Goshen 154 were registered, of whom

Three Precincts Consoliilntcfl.
TAZEWELL, VA., October 2.— (Special.)
The registration for Tazewell county is
nearly completed. The towns of Taze
well and Pocahontas are the only precincts
left unlinished. The last vote of the coun
ty was 4.500, and from present indications
there will not be over 2,700 o"r 2.500 regis
tered voters. Under the old law there
was something over 1.000 negro voters". Un
der the new registration there will be only
about sixty. There seems to be mucly in
difference manifested by both white 'and
colored; many are making no application
at all to register. :
V. L. Sexton, an attorney of Pocahontas,
moved JuCge Stuart yesterday morning
to consolidate the three precincts of Poca
hontas into one, in the interests ofecorio
my. The motion was resisted by some of
the Republicans, .but prevailed. Major.R.
R. Henry and Senator J. N. Harman op
posed the" consolidation.
On yesterday the Republicans sent Ma
jor R. R. Henry and J. W. Chapman.
Esq., before the Registration Board at
Richlands In their interests, but it is un-.
derstood that the hoard declined receiving
any instructions as to the discharge of
their duty.
LanenKter Registration.
IRVINGTON. VA.. October 2.— '(Special.)
.The Board of Registrars for ; Lancaster
county are nearly" through their work.
The numbers on the rolls ha ve_ not corns'
up to thp expectations and desires of those
who usually take, an active interest-in
politics. The county has had. about, an
equal number of whites and blades voting
heretofore. A fair estimate based -on '.the
regiftraticn* to-day, is that 70, per , cent.
of the whites and £5 per cent, of the color

CYCLONE IN A TEAPOT

Fun for the Joke
makers.
NEW YORK, October 2.—(Special.)—Al
derman William Dickinson, of Williams
burg District, was arrested to-day in the
office of Commissioner-of-Street-Cleaning
Woodbury, on the charge of attempting
to bribe the commissioner. He was taken
before Recorder GofT and; held for exami
nation under bail of $2,500, The charge
was based on the following letter sent to
Woodbury:
.."Dear Sir,— lf you will reinstate Antonio
Covino, who, I think, was too severely
punished by being dismissed from your
department, I will vote and otherwise
help you to obtain the money, for a new
plant in Brooklyn.
/ "Yours, most truly, - : :
"WILLIAM .LuCKINSON, "
. ■ . ."Alderman."
Dr., Woodbury has asked the, alderman
to give him an ■ appropriation for -this
plant, and the matter is still before tha
board. •■ . : •-.:-*■
When the Doctor got the letter he rush
ed to Mayor Lowe. The Mayor sent for
the District Attorney: There was. .a con
ference, and Dickinson was asked. to be
in Woodbury's office at .11 : o'clock, to-day.
He turned up innocently. County-Detec
tive Maher and Policeman Walsh were
concealed in the office.
"Did you write this letter?" demanded
Woodbury of the alderman.
"Sure," said the alderman. "What of
it?" \ :- ■ ; " ' '
-"Officers, arrest this man, commanded
the commissioner, and Uie officers pounc
ed on him and ran him up to. ; Jerome^s
office. Then he-: was taken before. Re
corder Goff, who was a little shaky about
holding him.
.Jerome, in person, argued that he should
be. held in. $5,000 bail. Recorder Goff de
clined 1 to hold him. Dickinson- wanted "to
make a; statement, but the Recorder told
him he hadbetter get counsel first, and
then parolled him ; to get bail, which he
promptly • furnished! All New. York, is
laughing at Jerome and AVoodbury,: who
take the ; matter seriously. The. District
Attorney was outraged by the horrid
crime, xie. said: "His act in writing that
letter was a flagrant violation of the pub
lic: officers' /act.; I will "press the prose
cution of the case with all speed." '■" .

Duties of Officials : Tliereln—ne
sponaniility of^ Ministers— Co-Op
- enition Necessary. ;
Using the Rev. George R. Stuart's own
words, last night : was his "round-up
night," which closed a .most successful
series of ' revival services. ■
Broad-Street Methodist church was
crowded to Its fullest'; capacity: '■. People
were lined up beside the .walls, while; the
aisles and other available space. was filled
with those eager. to hear the last words
of 'the late co-worker of the • Rev. / Sam. :
Jones. :
Mr. Stuart, attired in- a black sacque :
suit, a white negligee shirt, low collar
and' black; tie, took his place at the.pul
pit, and in that characteristic way of his
gave out the text, which was from the
first verse and the fourth chapter of Ephe
sians, which reads:/ "I, therefore, 'tne
prisoner of the Lord, beseech you. that ye
walk worthy of the vocation- wherewith
ye are called."
•Mr. Stuart announced that he would not
preach from the text just read,. but inste^l
would : take the congregation as his text.
He said that many line sermons could be
preached if the Bible was used as a guide,
and the text taken from the people. .
CALL HIGHER A CALL FROM GOD.
Mr! Stuart said that every time one is
called to something higher, that it was a
call from God. God had called him to the
ministry, and he thanked God for doing
so. Nothing can exist- unless God has or
dained it. He cited a case where a certain
institution .of learning had forbidden a
minister to enter its doors, and this par
ticular institution had sunken to rot arid
decay until the law was revoked and_ min
isters permited to come in. "Christians
are the salt of the earth." If the minis
ters would get together and put forth an
effort they could whip the devil.
He said that the minister was to blame
for all the corruption now going on, but
that the people must co-operate with the
ministers to get results.
CHURCH OFFICIALS. 1
He next ' took up the officials of the
church, and said that a great responsibil
ity rested upon. them. Their, offices were
sacred, created by God, He dwelt on this
subject for some time, and said: "I con
sider Judas Iscariot a gentleman compar
ed to any official of the church who will
go to a theatre, the circus, of to pleasure
resorts and parks." An official of the
church carries the dignity of the church
with him wherever he goes." - -"
Mr. Stuart said that he had cried after
the morning service. A poor woman had
brought him a pair of mats, and said that
was all she had to give."~He urged that
•the people pay their ministers well; it
gave them vigor and energy to work.
Mr. Stuart said that people said thaV
they would not join the church, because
there were hypocrites in the church.
"These people; will not- join because the
hypocrite is ahead of them," and turning
to the reporter, he added: "Don't quote
that from me, Mr. Reporter; that's from
Sam Jones." ■
Mr. Stuart closed his sermon with , a
beautiful illustration, comparing the lost
soul to a shipwrecked craft. •
Mr. Stuart,, it is understood, is to re
ceive $1,000 for his. services in Richmond,
all incidentals to be paid by Centenary
and Broad-Street churches. .S3OO was need
ed to make out that amount last night. A
collection was taken for the purpose. •
Mr. Stuart goes from here to Lynchburg
and then to Norfolk.

WASHINGTON. October. 2— "lt is ex
pected that all the men to whom Invitations
were sent; yesterday will be present: at
the conference to-morrow. Mr. Baer and
Mr. Mitchell have accepted."
This was the only statement that could
be obtained at the White House to-day
regarding the conference which will be
held to-morrow on the coal situation.
Senator Quay, of Pennsylvania, .was in
conference with" the President / for 'an
hour to-day, and it Is understood . tha^
he came here at the request of the Presi
dent to discuss the strike situation; The
President and' Senator were not Inter
rupted, and two Cabinet officers who
called did not see the President while
the conference was in progress. Senator
Quay, after he left the President, would
not discuss tho .situation or discuss an
opinion as to the probable effect of tfie
coming conference.
I CABINET SUGGESTIONS.
During the day. Secretary Root, Attor
ney-General Knox, and Secretary Shaw
were In conference with the President.
Secretary Wilson was at the White

FEELING OF HOPE.
While every one connected with the
administration is extremely reticent con
cerning the coming conference, there is
a. feeling of hope among those close to
the President that it is going to result
in a settlement of . the -strike. This is
based- upon the acuteness of the situa
tion, and the necessity that exists for a
settlement. The determination of the
President to bring about a' settlement, 1 : If
possible, is ' largely "responsible "for the
confidence which is felt in . the out
come. • . .--.'■ .

The ; family %ot the / deceased are com
pletely prostrated over, the sad j death.
Mrs. Smith . had -been! married three
years, ;and ; her -married' life had been a
most happy, one. . It was learned from the
family of- the deceased that she had been
subject to , severe attacks that often
brought; on delirium, and-it is supposed
that she took' the overdose of mc.rphlne
without realizing Its danger. There was
nothing to indicate that Mrs. Smith's
death was- the 'result -of- suicide; as her
domestic relations- were as cheerful and
as happy as they could be. 4 She had, been
complaining for several days prior to her
death, and it was her intention ;to visit
her parents in Portsmouth, to secure a
change. ■ which was 'thought would be
beneficial to her. She was in her 23d year,
and is survived by a baby boy 19 months
old.' " " :
