The "Evenings With Dickens" enter-
ainment closed last night, the program
being a very good one, and there being
less noise and confusion than on the
preceding night. The quartette was
fine, and most of the scenes were well
put on. The attendance was not. so
large as on the first night, but the scenes
were, if anything, better. There has
been so much in the way of entertain
ments lately that the public is getting
somewhat tired, and yet every night for
the next week or more will have some
kind of a Bhow. The "Evenings With
Dickens" required an immense amount of
work, and certainly the exercise of un
limited patience on the part of Mr.
Ernst.

. Ed. Marshal, a gentleman of leisure,
was arrested night before last charged
with vagrancy. Being taken before the
city recorder, he demanded a jury trial,
which was given him. He conducted
his own case, and did it so successfully
that the jury was out only a minute,
when it returned with a verdict of guilty.
Marshal was then fined $50 and costs,
and given the privilege of working out
his fine on the streets or leaving town
never to return. Last night he con
cluded he would accept the latter alter
native, and we are perhaps rid of him
for some time.

For sale by
Salvation Army Improved on the Pouter
of the Clrcaa.
Last year one of the big circuses ex
perienced considerable annoynncq
throughout central Indiana because of
the wnrfnre waged against it by tho
Salvation Army. Tho Salvationists met
the circus men on their own ground and
declared war by pasting tiny strips of
paper, bearing scriptural texts and iu
ligious warnings, upon the circus bill
board displays. Some ot these Salva
tionist warnings were startling, and in
conjunction with tho show's lithographs
produced effects never before drennicd
of, always incongruous and striking and
often apparently blasphemous.
The trouble began at Munclo. A
member of the Salvation army at that
point, seeing popular attention directed
toward tho circus billboards, decided
that they furnished a medium by which
to introduce his scriptural texts to the
public. Within tho next half hour
these circus displays were completely
metamorphosed. Tho picture of an
aeronaut falling in a parachute from a
balloon bore the inscription, "Sinner,
you are bound for hell. Go tho other
way." The long neck of the giraffe was
labeled, "The straight and narrow way
is best." A small negro boy was
pictured as gazing, horror stricken, into
the open mouth of a hippopotamus, and
across its cavernous expanse were the
words, "Prepare to meet thy God."
The snake charmer, wrapped in the
folds of a monster serpent, was admon
ished to "Shun the deadly cup; it
stingeth like an adder." An ucrobat,
turning a somersault in midair, appar
ently grasped in his hand the question,
"Where will you spend your eternity?"
and the tights of a woman trapeze per
former were decorated with the. state
ment that "God sees everything." Tho
lion tamer, in a cage with seveial
beasts, which apparently were about to
make a meal of him, was admonished to
"watch and pray," and the "human
cannon ball" being fired from a huge
cannon was confronted by the question,
"Where are you going to heaven or to
hell?
It is safe to say that no circus bills
ever attracted more general attention or
caused more comment.

Ceclle Knssell's Criticism of the ltelKUn
- VloliuUt.
Herr Walther's playing is remarkable
in this instance; that from the moment
he first draws the bow across his instru
ment, he holds his audience with him
spell bound. One Bees the jntense ex
pression of his playing never falls to
carry his audience into realms of fancy
and delight, which only ceases as some
exquisite melody dies away into silence,
to awaken an endless and deafening ap
plause. His tone is unique in its purity
and breadth, never losing even in the
most intricate passages, that accuracy of
intonation, so very rarely found to per
fection. Having heard an artist such as Herr
Carl Walther one comes away filled with
intense enthusiasm for the divine art,
admiring almost as much as the noble
gift of melody, the dignified bearing and
romantic appearance of this Belgian
violinist.
Herr Walther is certainly a player of
the romantic school rather than the
purely technical though that he ap
pteciates the works of the old masters
was well shown by the rendering of tho
Clecoune of Back, and one or two de
lightful bits by Corelli. With the Hext
