[ Special Tele gram to Tnr. Unr . ] A small-sired r.ico war was precltiltated here by tin attempt on the part of John Henry , a negro , to wed Mrs. Caroline Crowe , a while woman. Mrs. Crouo is a widow , aped about r > 0 years , who has always been considered eminently re spectable. On Friday last Henry returned from Sioux Cily with a document which ho claihied was a hiarrtago HCOIMC and bo.isted among his friends that on Saturday he would start on his wedding trip with the widow as his bride. Mrs. Crowe is the mother of four grown children , all of whom are thoroughly respectable , and who keenly felt the disgrace of this proposed alll.ince. On Friday evening HIP sons , with a party of about a dozen friends , undertook to drive the African wooer out of town and provide 'dm with a warm winter Mill of tar and 'eathers. The party approached the Crowe tome In a body , where they knew the negro o be. and demanded entrance. They found ocked doors. Hoth Henry and his prospee- Ivo bride appeared at the window and swore hey would shoot tlio llrst man that nt- empled to enter. The party withdrew with- iiit accomplishing its purpose. On Saturday the burly negro appeared on , ho streets with n loaded Winchester and hrcatened boldly to shoot his enemies on icht. Ho carried the gun all dav. In the veiling lie was arrested at the instance of Mrs. Crowe's relatives , charged with threat ening to commit murder. Ho will be given a Hearing on Monday.

" James O'Neill's reputation as an actor has been fully earned by years of excellent service in the histrionic presentation of ro mantic character , and the numerous audi ence that greeted him , after an absence from Omaha of four years , at tbo Boyd last evening must feel that that reputation has been added to by his interpretation of the latest character ho has assumed. "Fonto- nellc" is a great play , and that it lias been written by Americans makes it doubly acceptable. Minnie Maddcrn Fiskc , so much admired as a comedienne , and her husband , Harri son Cray Fisko , wrote the book , which has meiits that should earn for it the place of a classic in the future history of the Ameri can stage. The scene of the story is laid in Franco in the time of T-ouis XV. , and the main incident of the action turns on the los ing and llnding of a diamond designed by the circumspect min ister of that royal profligate to assuage tlio ennui of their precious master , Tlio story is well told , the dialogue is crisp and dramatic to a degree , with not n supcrlluous sentence. Time and place give opportunity for much magnificence of scenery and cos tume , and it is fully improved. The Pompa dour he. self is a leading character in the play. The drama is built nn the lines of the melo-drama of a generation ape , yet elevated and dignified to a degree. The action opens in a hostelry , on tlio Breton coast , owned by one Boseard.a notorious brigand and outlaw , and no one act of any drama on tlio stage to day can bo recalled that has such quick action and all-compelling power to interest tbo spectator. As presented at the Boyd this scene is realistically plciuiv.sn.ua. Indeed - deed , it may bo said hero that Omaha theater-goers have never before at homo been treated to a liner series of stage pictures than frame the action of "Foiitenollo , " The exterior of tlio royal palace of Versailles , the apartments of The Pompadour , the scene on tlio Seine , with Paris pictured by night , the twin towers of Notre Dame glooming starward amid tbo imue of'lights all call for the highest praise. Then'the ' costumes are his torically accurate , ami .so brilliant In the ex treme. Evidently no expense has been spared to gain a fitting"frame for what must be styled a great play. Mr. O'Neill in tho'title ' part is handsomely heroic , an of yore , and. each member of his company is a highly1 capable actor. Mr O'NciH'B method iHtyidiiiirably restrained , while lacking nothing of intensity. In "situations" lie Is always In full control ol himself and his ciwaxes ) never bet no a falsetto note. .J-nst uvenim.- , however over , the crltlo 'wds forced to note a fault , more ' -prominent. perhaps because ot the general excellence of tin actor's art. The weariness of travel inaj have been the cause , but once or twice notably in the love t > ccno of the second act Mr. O'Neill fell to reciting his lines , betray ing a seeming indifference that was not ill all plcnMint to contctnplato In such an artist In the third mid fourth scenes of the dr.tm.i his speech and netlon wcrondmlrablj beyond praise. A ihar.irter n * dtftlcult of adequate expres sion ns that of Foiitenollo Is that of the brigand. Boscard. it is a great part for an actor , nnd Mr. Howard ( iould fully and sat isfactorily fills It. Mr , Mould's work ill the opening scene Is unusually fine , nnd through out he Is eiitlrelv admirable , fairly dividing the artistic honors with Mr , O'Neill. Mr , W. 11 , Pascoe's luis XV is a broad and thoroughly effective study of that most de praved of monarchs , and the other male parts are well presented. Miss Kmma Forsyth makes much of The Pompadour , though last vvcnlng she was Just a little bit thetnrical In her scene In the third net. Miss Florence Brandon looks Helene , and succeeds fairly well In presenting the somewhatsketchv and commonplace character : the authors did not spend very much tlmeou Heleno. Miss Marie Floyd's Hulottc Is one of the three artistic gems of the performance ; as a bit of charac ter study , thoroughly conceived and fully expressed , it is ( lawless. Fontenello" Is u valuable addition to the American stage , and should bo seen by all who care for good plays and the progress of the American drama. "Muster mill Mm" : lit tlio rnrmini , Manager Burgess made a ton strike in securing - curing "Master and M-in" for the New- Year's bill at the Farnam. H is the work of two of the cleverest playwrights working for the Hngllsh speahimr stage. CJeorgo H. Sims and Henry Pettit. Its story is not new , but it is eternally Interesting The ac tion moves with a swift directness that hav ing caught the attention of the .spectators retains It. The situations are stirrlin ; , and in short "Master and Man" is a moltel melo- dr.imn. The story Is of the over-Interesting struggle of virtue against vill liny , the out * conic in perfect consonance with the Illness of things theatrical , mirroring the wlmt- ought-to-be rather than the whnt-ls of the stage of life. The scene is laid in an Kiiglish mnnulacturiiig town. The wealthy owner of tlio Carl ton Iron works Iris seized the patrimony of his brother's child and his plans ami plots to retain the station be has usurped form the main incidents of the play. With the help of his tool , the loremaii of tlio works , 1 lumpy I < o < ian , he 1ms the rightful heir's husband sent to a penitentiary for manslaughter ; he steals her child and has all but accomplished his wicked purposes when eternal stage Justice takes her cue , villiany is vanquished and suffering virtue is revived to her rightful.place and sunshine succeeds storm. The minor incidents to the main plot are cheerful , and there is no lack of clear , enloyahlo comedy to lighten the the darkness of the principal picture-scheme. "Master and Man" is . Certainly a play to sec. The companyicharged with its presentation at tlio Farnam is clever and successful. Mr. M. M. Murray is sufilciently soulless as the villain , Carlton , and as Jack Walton , the hero , Mr. James A. Mnhonoy is manly and impressive. The Humpy Logan of Mr. Palmer Collins is a character study of much merit , satisfying in ensemble and displaying a line appreciation of the value of detail ; it is a trying part to play throughout , but. it is played admirably , Mr. Collins' work in the forgo scene and in the last act being almost beyond criticism. Mr. Hud 13. Hnrrou is considerably amusing as Crispin St. Jones , n city dude ; the part is a mere sketch , but it is fairly well presented. Mr. Kd. Plnnd as Tom Brady , the good genius of the play , is satisfactory. The drama has two characters that , in the hands of intelli gent actors would shine two roadside ( Jypsy showmen but Messrs. Martin and Kddy , who assume their presentation , do not seem to have the faintest idea of their possibili ties and spoil the scene they should domi nate ; whether from indifference or igno rance , their work could not possibly bo worse. The sweetest part in the play Hester's little boy is charmingly interpreted by Master Willie Beach ; his seriously boyish air , his precocious speech and his pretty face take the hearts of the audience and keep them throughout the action. The ladies are all capable in their respective parts , Miss Charlotte Hay as Hester , the heroine , and Miss Florence Marion as Lotty shining par ticularly. The scenery of ' "Master and Man" Is a most important accessory of the action and is all that could bo desired. The forge scene hi the fourth act is fairly realistic , showing the tlaming furnace and all the apparatus of the ironsniith's craft to the life. Scene and action in this act are capitally conjoined to produce the most stirring effect , and the cur tain falls on one of the best situations in latter day melo-drama. Incident to the lighter scenes of the play several songs give cheer. In one of these , however , there was a distinctly offensive personality introduced yesterday. Hofer- enees to local happenings that are good texts for laughter are always permissible and often verv enjoyable , but allusions to the lives of reputable citizens , held in honor by their fellows , are unpardonable and come dians should avoid them if they would keep in the good graces of their audience. . Piles of people nave piles , but DeWitt s Witch Hazel salvo will euro them. . 1A A U HXVKMKX TS.
