NAtioxAt.THBA.Tns. "The New Success,"
ae the potters ha?e it, attracted another full
houae Uet night. "Lorlo," la the orlflnal,
may be an artistic and hlfhlylnlereitlng play,
but It ta not pleee aa translated, or adapted,
likely to establish the title character a favor
Ite. Indeed, the part of Lorle, by any other
Uiao Manle Mitchell, would appear very common-place
the part of Barbel betas; much bet
ter defined, and the principal male character,
Rein hard, mush the most prominent In the
play, Mr. Oolller, we think, fafls in the con
ception of that part. An artist, of such repu
tation that he attracts the attention of the
Prince and wins the lore of the Oouotess,
could not be so unlf irmly a boor as he Is repre
sented. No audience can fall to perceive how
ridiculous the scene appears ae he Intro
duces bis peasant wife to the Prince, and
he appears fidget ty lest she would betray
her rustle manners aad lack of ,the knowledge
of society, when kli entire previous conduct
on the stage exhibits a great lack of the social
and f entlemanly amealllee or me. Ana an
other Incongruity In the piece strikes us right
here. Lorle exhibits great good sense (which
la the tout of good-breeding.) In all the pre-
Tloua scenes, aad oaly acta the awkward rus
tle la the presence of the Prince after aha haa
been reassured by the kind, sisterly reception
of the Oounteas. On every previous occasion
eho Is self-possecsed, dignified, and uses good
language, the translator must hare limited
Ideaaof women's tact or talent, wJto reduces
a sensible girl to a mere oewx after marriage!
But the myriad-minded public require a varied
mental recrf atloo, and ' Lorlo" may continue
to hare admirers. There was some pruning
of the piece last night, and It was relieved of
much of Its tedlousneis, though It made It still
more!sketchy. The scenes were welt put on
the stage, reflecting care on the part of the
management, and great credit on the scenic
tartlet We noticed new faces predominant In

Ingoftho Third ward Republican club was
held last night atwiiewell barracks, corner
of O and Seventh at recti.
The president, William A. Cook, celled the
meeting to order.
The committee appointed at a previous
meeting to aelect proper persons for officers
of the club, reported the following!
President, N: H. Miller) vice preildent, J. T.
Johnson) second vice preildent, Thomas P.
Ilellt eecretary, L, B. Wllllamst treasurer,
Ueo. W. Renrrau.
The report of the committee was adopted
Mr. Cook abdicated the chair and Mr. N, 21.
Millar, the newly elected president, came for
ward and thanked the club for the honor they
had conferred upon him Inaelestlng him as

would have men In position In this city who

or sect. He admonished the club that the op
position were at work, but by organisation
and proper effort i they could aueceed In elect
ing the Mayor and a majority In the Boards of
council.
Mr. J. T. Johnson being called for, came
forward and addressed the club at some length,
urging the necessity of action. Their political
opponents were wily and full of strategy, and
were assailing every weak point.
If the Democrat! gained the ascendancy the
colored man must go down. They were on the
eve of another campaign. Were they prepared
to stand up to secure to themeelves a portion
of the work from the corporation, which waa
Justly due thsmt They should not rote for
any candidate not willing; to give the colored
man a fair chance In the race for life. He
atood committed to no lndlvldval with refer
ence to the mayoralty, but would atand by
the choice of the party. He would not pledge
hlmseir to this or that man, but would support
the nominee. ....
Mr. Cook moved that the president appoint
an executlre committee of nine, who shall
hare power to appoint sub-committees, and
report at the next meeting. Agreed to.
At this stage of the proceedings the re
porters were ''Invited out," and It la supposed
that the meeting soon after adjourned.
