A son of James G. Blame Jr. madehis debut on the stage of life January10. Mrs. Blame was formerly MarieNevins, a graduate of the LyceumSchool of Acting, and when she mar-ried the son of the Plumed Knightshe was with Mojeeka's Co.

Old Jed Prouty is the title of theplay by William Gill, in which Rich-ord Golden may star next season.The titular character is an old Mainetavern-keeper, and the piece is des-cribed as a "simple story of life in aMaine village, minus the usual horseplay."

On January 10, Manager H. E.Abbey, wiped out the last $2000 of the$283,000 indebtedness incurred in hisdisastrous season of Italian opera atthe Metropolitan, this city, in thewinter of 1883-4. The achievementis well worth recording and remem-bering.

M. Mounet-Sully, the French actor,is engaged in writinga drama in fiveacts, entitled La Buveuse de Larmes,("The Tear Drinker.") The heroineis a woman named Esther, and themotive is the suffering caused by aheartless wom%n, who plays with thesacred passion ot love.

--000 francs from sixty-four perform-ances of Massenet's Le Cid, "29,462francs from forty-four of Palahihe'sI'atrie, 515,053 from thirth-three ofRigolette and 764,606 from fifty-threeReyer's lAgurd?the latter a Gallicizedversion of Die Walkure.

R., who died in Oil City, Pa.,December 31, saved the life of thelate John Drew thirty-fiveyears ago.Mr. Drew, who, with a party offriends, was bathing at Turtle Rock,Philadelphia, suddenly disappearedbeneath the surface of the water,when Mr.Bookhammer, then a youthof 16, but an expert swimmer,plunged in and brought the drowningman to the shore by the hair. As aalight token of appreciation for hishrave act Mrs. Drew presented Mr.Beokhamnier with a life-pass to the.Arch-street Theater.

Mr. Leavitt will precede themind-reader by at least a month

While in Australia, Mr. Leavitt willendeavor to arrange time for some ofhis numerous attractions, and alsohelp along negotiations now pendingfor the management of theaters inthat oeuutry.

Recently published statistics of thevarious places of amusement in theUnited Kingdom of Great Britainshow that London has fifty theatersand the provinces about 200. Theholding capacity of the London thea-ters is about 70,000, while the capitalinvested in them is little short of$20,000,000. They give direct employ-ment to about 150,000 people. Inthis estimate the music halls are notincluded, and of these there areabout 475.

Joclyn, Charles Coghlan's new play,in which Rose Coghlan is to star, is aromantic tragedy, with the scene laidinFrance during the Huguenot's time.The villain conspires to get possessionof the heroine, and kills her brothers.She endeavors to escape, diguised inmale attire. He detects her; theyfight a duel, and he mortally woundsher, but she manages to kill him be-fore she expires. This is the playMr. Coghlant wrote for Mrs. Langtry.It is announced as original, but soundsfamiliar and French-like.

The following is a list of panto-mimes done Decembor 20th at theLondon, Eng., theatres: Drury-lane,Puis in Boots; Covent Garden, Jackand the Beanstalk; Surrey, Sinbadandthe Little Old Nan of ihe Sea; Stan-dard, Fee-Fi Fo Eton; Marylebone,The Frog Who Would a-Wooing Go;Britannia, King Tricher; Grand,Whittington and His Cat; Sanger's,Blue Beard; Sadler's Wells, BluffKing Hal: Pavilion, Robinson Crusoe;Elephant and Castle, Jack the GiantKiller; Greenwich, Little Jack and theBigBeanstalk.

Up to Garrick's time the explicitstage direction, "The Ghost of Banquorises and sits in Macbeth's place,"had been religiously obeyed, and theeffect plainly rendered before theeyes of the audience. Since thatopinion has been divided, as theactor, misled by the commentators,appears to think he has the option ofplaying the scene either in theoriginal manner or according tothe tenets of modern philosophy.This is a huge mistake. Shakes-peare does not lend himself to modernmethods of illustration, as we canvery plainly see by the ill done in lav-ishing excessive scenic detail upon adrama, es-entially one of the vaguestbackground. Phelps at Sadler'sWells (May, 1844) and Charles Keanat the Princess' (February, 1853),wise in their generation, stuck loy-ally to the Shakespearian mandate.In Kean's revival the method pur-sued inthe mounting ef the banquetscene was generally considered tomaterially augment the effect. Therudely-garbed roysterers feasting atthe table were set offat the front andsides by a series of arch-supportingcolumns, attached to which were thetorches, whose unearthly flickeringsgave the scene its necessary wierd-ness. The ghost of Banquomade its first appearance throughan aperture in a table in the back-ground, situated beneath a balcony ofminstrels; subsequently one of "themore prominent pillars became trans-parent and revealed the shade in itsinterior, Wrote a contemporary:"The effect of the apparition is per-fectly novel, as far as our experienceof stage matters extends, and hasevidently been inspired by a poeticfeeling. There is something "morethan melodramatic mechanism in theinvention and contrivance of such anincident. The dazzling illuminationof the head avoids much that is un-pleasant in the usual representationof the gashes on the brow, and pre-serves the sublimity of terror properto a supernatural appearance. It isaltogether in taste. ?[The Gentleman'sMagazine.

Uncle Tom.Commencing to-morrow at the Grand

Opera House, McFadden's DoubleUncle Tom's Cabin will appear for thefirst time in this city. The PueHoDaily Chieftan of February 26th says:

Ladies and children who attendedMcFadden's Boston Double UncleTom's Cabin last evening saw a goodshow. The performance was excel-lent in every respect. The two"Marks" were good, "Topsy" wassplendin, "Uncle Tom" was betterthan ever, the donkeys were cute, thedogs were savage, little "Eva" wonher way to the people's hearts by h-rexcellent portrayal of the pretty part,and the little picaniunie was simplyimmense. The plantation suene wasgood, the singing was above the aver-age, the dancing was well executed,and the other specialties renderedwere equal to the best minstrel shows.The company furnishes some verypretty stage settings, and, taken as awhole, itis the best Uncle Tom's Cabinshow we ever saw.

The Pavilion.During the past week the Wessels

combination at the Pavilion has beendrawing fair houses to witness theproduction of Michael Strogoff. Thisis the best company which has beenat the Pavilion for some lime, and itwill remain here during the coiningweek. Last night the White Slave waswas placed on the stage before a good-sized audience. It will be givenagain to-night, and to-morrow theStrangles of Paris will be the attrac-tion.

At 11 O'clock a. M.,on the Grounds

500 Business &Residence LoisIN THE TOWN OF GOSHEN.

This town, now for the first time offeredto the public iv building lots, is undoubt-edly the grandest opportunity which thegreat San Joaquin Valley with its limitlessresources has ever offered the investor.

SITUATION.Goshen is in the heart of the valley on the

main live of the S. P. R R. just midway be-tween Sau Francisco and Los Angeles, anditis also the only center of the Cross Rail-road systems atpresent running from Huronou thu west to Visallaou the east. This crossline is now being pushed to the great coal-field of Robins and Rawiim on the west, andon the east willtap the inexhaustible umberbelt of the Sierras. It is beside, the centerof numerous prospective lines aud must un-doubtedly become the great traffic depot olthe Valley.

Soil and Agricultural Advantages.Around Goshen are 100,000 acres of the

finest agricultural land in the State?quiteas rich and productive laud as that aroundFreßno, which has sprung from a hamlet toa city of 10,000 inhabitants In three years.This soil is now bearing all the fruits andproducts of California in abundance wher-ever tested.

Goshen Is 15 miles from Tulare Lake, andlyingns itdoes between it and the sierras,the quest! inof water supply can never pre-sent any difficulty, as already aft- sted by theabundance of irrigating ditches all around,and the superabundance of surface waterand artesian wells,

CLIMATE.Goshen has uudoubtedly the best climatein the Sau Joaquin Valley?perfectly freefrom all malariai influences?and while the

days are delightfully warm the nights arenights are balmy and cool.Goshen affords probably the best field inallCalifornia for a great fruit-cunning anddrying industry, and isscarcelv seco'd even

to Watsonvilie as a location for an extensivebeet-sugar lactory, such as is being thereerected by Spreckels itSons.
