The contcslunl lusl night for the four-hour

The entry for to-night is .1. Rugger. The
winner is to receive a handsome gold medal
valued alSlOJ , presented by the Collosscum
associ.ilion. The attendance last night was
good , and would have boon much larger , had
nol llio cable cars bueti sloppud running by
an accident at Iho power house.
"The Stowaway , " at the lioyd last night ,
attracled an audience which tilled Ihe house.
It was a demonstrative audience , especially
in the upper tiers , Ihe occupaals of which de
manded. and were accorded , reluctantly how
ever , a number of recalls.
' "ilio Stowaway" is a melo-drama. It
abounds in exciting incidents , though itsplol
is somewhat Jerky. The here is a very good
mid a very much abused young man. Thi >
evil genius is a very baa young gcnllomnn
who hcsliialcs not before desertim ; nnd
murdering his wife , and scheming
10 unlawfully possess himself of ttio hcrilago
of Ihe hero , who has been wilfully deserted
by his father.
As in every melo-drama , the characters In
"The Stowaway" have a faculty of appearing
whoa and where they might least bo p.\-
pected. As in mclo-dramas , also , they arc
inspired with sentiments which do not often
find expression in every day life , while their
actions almost closely border on almost ex
travagant exaggeration. But people have not
yet tired of the mclo-drama. Many appreci
ate it for the sake of the days thai are pone ,
while others of a later generation , fly to il as
a relief from Iho farco-comcdy.witn wnlch for
years Ihey have been surfeiled. Those seek
ing a society play In "Tlio Stowaway"will uo
disappointed. Hut Ihoso who wish lo sec a
clean , well-presented and interesting play ,
can afford lo witness It. The company is not
a great one. Some of the members may bo
excused for suggesting Ihis estimate , because
theybuvo lo struggle witli characters which
even genius might fail in making intorosl-
ing. As a whole , however , it gives a satls-
faclory presentation , the members especially
distinguishing Ihemsolvcs bomg Mr. Sla.yter
as Tom Ingliss , Mr. Mark Lynch as Charles
Etherington , Harry Hawk as the Stowaway.
Miss Marion Elmoro assumed an impossible
mule character , but was greatly applauded.
The other Indies bad lltllo lo do , Iho heroine ,
Miss Helen We.ithorsby , who is murdered in
Iho Ihird act , being somewhat weak in the
scene preceding Iho Irugedy.
The mounlbiK of the JHCCO is very good ,
and several of Ihe sets were warmly ap
plauded ,
