ROME UNDER NERO.

The Order of Cincinnatus, which,last year, by its representation of " The Fall of Babylon," gave Cincinnati such a season of splendor in the midst of the workaday monGtony of its busy life-the two weeks' performances being witnessed by over one hundred thousand people, has chosen for tbis year's subject of representation, " Rome Under Nero." Tbe place for the repre­ sentation is the old Union Base Ball grounds, foot of Bank street, now known as the Campus. A new , covered pavillion bas been erected, which contains over tw elve thomand seats, and every ;eat is '" comfortable chair. Tbe stage runs across the entire grounds, about two hundred feet from tbe audience, is four hun­ dred and twelve feet in length, aud two hundred and sixty feet deep. When the audience is assembled on the evening of August 1.t, they will be confronted by the city of Rome, at a time when all tbe world paid her tribute. The painting of the scenery is so wonderfully realistic in color and perspective tbat it will not be difficult for the spectator to imagine himself carried back over eighteen hundred years. The bnildings, palaces, arches, temples, columns, statues, catacombs, towers, bridges, aqueducts, streets and passages are all as nearly historicall y correct as the vast resources and experience of the Order of Ciucinnatus can make them. Nor is this all, for as the actiou of the representation pro­ gresses, the scenes change, disclosing the Forum Romanum, later tb e front of tbe Circus Maximus, tben the Grand Palace of the Emperor Nero, then the Circus ~Iaximus opens, disclosing a sheet of water, with immeuse ships in active battle, and still again the Arena is presented, with a magnifi cent perspective, array ed for a holid"y of the people of Ro·me. This. with tbe burning and destruction of the city in tbe last act, will make tbe spectator marvel as much at the mecbanical ingenuity displayed as at the artistic excellence of the scenery. Now, a few words abont tbe action of the play, if it may so be called, for it is bistorical·biblical, spectacular, operatic and mili. tary, at times, as it developes, and comprises, after the opening, an election of consuls and a riot, a camp scene, a festival, a sacri­ fice, a triumpbal procession, a palace scene, a bacchanalian feast, witb dances, chorus and drill, a naval combat, chariot races, glad­ iatorial combats, atbletic games, persecution and burning of Christians, tbe burning and destruction of tbe city, closing with an allegory representing the dawn of Chistianity, thus bringing to an end the most gorgeous and realistic spectacle ever presented in modern times. The number of characters and accessories necessary to a faithful representation of "Rome Under Nero ," is 1,360, all gorrectly costumed and equipped, and over one bundred electric lights are used to illuminate the scenery. The first performance will be given on tbe evening of Augnst 1st, and continue nightly for a week or more. Not a man, woman or child who reads tbis should fail to see" Rome Under Nero," and see it early, while every thing is brig-ht and fresh. The Order will soon pnblish an illustrated lihretto of forty pages, giving all exhanstive account of the perfOrm8IlCe.

THE SOLDIERS' AND SAILORS' CELEBRATION AT LOGANSPORT.

As the drowsy traveler lies dozing and dreaming, may be of that elysian railroad on which dust and cinders do not make life a burden, he is startled by the screech of the locomotive, like the wail of a lost soul on its first encounter with its future master, and he wakes to find himself whirled, at forty miles an hour, around a sharp l'urve, drawn with majestic ease across the classic Wabash, down through a mass of side-tracks, and finds himself in the beautiful city of Logansport, Ind. On entering the city, the visitor is at once struck with the air of thrift and activity that is prevalent, the beauty oflocation and the facilities for manufacture and trade. Logansport lies in the vallev of the Wabash, that was hollowed out, ages ago, as geologists tell us, by immense fields of ice on their journey to the South, on both banks of the Wabash and Eel rivers, which effect a junction nearly in the center of the town. It is the county seat of the populous and fertile county of Cass, and is the largest city between Fort Wayne and Evansville, and Indianapolis and Chicago. It has a population of six­ teen thousand souls, and while in former years itnas been prosperous, the present season has been one of unusual activity in the way of building, nearly two hunched houses being this Summer finished and now in course of erection. In addition to many large busi­ ness blocks now going up in the central part of the city, the county is enlarging and improving its already commodious court-house, putting improvements to it to the amount of $41,000.

AMERrCAN NORMAL COLLEGE. This institution of learning occupies a very large five·story brick building au the north side of the city. The college has a campus of twelve acres, containing a beautiful grove, through which are walks leading from the streets to the college building. The latter was built at a cost of $80,000. The school is owned by fonr gentlemen: Chas. E. Kircher, A. M., Principal; W. S. Harsh­ man, M. S., E. M. C. Hobbs and Barton B. Bigler, B. S., Associate Principals. There are eleven regular teachers, The school sus­ tains ten regular courses and has the power to confer the degrees: A. B., B. S., B. C. Eo, B. C, S, The school was reorganized in 1885 and has had a wonderful growth. It opened its first term, under the present manugement, with Eeven re>;ular students. The present year has just closed, showing an annual enrollment of 973 stud 3nts. The reasons for this wonderful growth may be stated as follows: 1. The pupil can enter any time of year, as the school is in session fifty weeks out of the fifty-two, baving two weeks vacation at holidays. 2, The advantages are first-class and the pupil can pursue any line of work, he may desire. 3. The cheap· ness is the school's great feature, Pupils can attend here and for $25 the institution will furnish good board, well furnished room, and tuition in any literary course for a term or' ten weeks. 4.

A BRAVE SISTER OF CHARITY.

An accident that came near resulting in the death of a deaf mute, occurred at Old Fort Erie Grove near New York last week. The Sisters of Charity with about fifty deaf mutes, part boys and girls from St. Mary's Asylum, went over to the grove yesterday for their annual outing. They had a very pleasant time. The train was coming up from Fort Erie while the happy party was waiting for the boat. Just as the train got within a few feet of the party who were standing near the track, a mute boy, about fifteen years of age, rushed out to speak to one of his companions. The Sisters, and bystanders who were present, called to him in fran­ tic tones to look out, but he of course could not hear. Just as he was almost under the wheels a brave Sister ran out and seized him and got him to the other side of the track. The little engine passed within a foot of him.
