THE LIQUOB QUESTION. L The report of tho_ Special Committee of Nino on the closing of saloons on Sunday was taken up. It provides for closing the saloons till1 o'clock. Ald. Schaffner moved to waivo the engroes- ment. Ald. Sherwood raised the point that the matter was out of order. It was a resolution, and not a0 ordinance, and it was impossible to amend an oxdinznce’ by a resolution. ) The matter was_roferred back tothe Special Committee, & motion to send it to tho Judiciary Committes having failed—yeas, 16 ; naye, 17 THE NATIONAL. Ald. Cullerton moved to tako up tho ordinance for the National Gas Light & Coko Company. Ald. Dixon moved to take up tho ordinances for the Metropolitan Company &iso. The amendment was not adopted.

Cullerton then moved to strike out all after the enacting clause, and iwusort the fol- lowing s ” e it Ordained by the Common Council of the City of Chicago : ) Seomion 1.

The Council adjourned. AMUSEMENT! AIEEN'S THEATRE. BMr. Aiken produced another noveltylast sven- ing, and presented to tho public tho eensational play, “Poverty Flat,” a dramatization of Bret Harto's poem known by that title. “The audienco wasinot alarge one—it was quito the revorse, even for a first performance, the gallery being tho only portion of the - suditorium that was more than partially cccupied. ~ The play, a8 hinted above, waa constructed from the poem by Mr. J. J. McCloskey. Itis true that the dramatis personce are to some extent thoze of the poet, inasmuch 8s they ~bear the same namos, and the . localitics . have . beon eimilarly presorved. For instance, tho scemery in the first act rTepresents” & view of # Poverty Flat,” with mountains in the back- ground said to bo s faithfal portrait of Califor- nia scenery. Hero nlso is Follansbee (Mr. Deane), the esteemed parent of the ‘“Lily of Poverty Flat " (Mrs. Lunagan). _There also is “ Poor Joc Mercer,” her lover (Frank Lawlor), and lastly “the men who shot Sandy McGhoe," Tom Blackburn (Mr. Mordauut). To these fow characters tho dramatirt hns added s host of others to elaborate tho poem, the lesding charao- ters being Tom Flynn (Mr. Albaugh), and Date Stanton (Mr. Howland). The plot ia like that of 8l such plays, singulaly thin, tho merit of tho picce depaniing more upon blood-curdling situn- tions, in which pistols aud bowie-knives play s prominent part, and fearful catustrophes, such 23 the unexpected caving in_of & mine, 8dd to the torrors of the play and please tho young gontlemen up stairs. Thero i8 no very cxacting demand upon ths sctors, the dinlogdo is a8 ten- nous 83 usual in such piecos, but tho scenery is good, end thero is o startling tableau at the end of everynct, Mr. Albsugh's brogue is rather faulty, but that is of littlo consequenca, a lion's share of heroio edveniure endearing him im- mensely to the majority of the audionce, Mr. Larwlor 3 Joe, and Alr. Mordaunt as the princi- pal villain, Tom Blackburn, whoso reputation as the ssesssin of Sandy McGhee algo claims much admiration {rom above, wero really as fair im- personations as could be expocted. Tho sudden illncss of Mrs. Albaugh prevented her appear- ance 1a Grace Follansbee, but Ler plico was very acceptably filled = by Mrs. Lanagan. Lovers of the class of sensational plays, to which belong ‘Across the Continent " and * Poverty Flat," will find in the Iatter the fall spico of impossible sdventure which renders the former so attractive. Besides, the scenery is protty, and there is & cascado of real water, ruaning down the mountain,” in tho second act. : MCVICKER'S THEATRE. The third and last weok of” tiie engagement of Mr. and Mrs. Boucicault at McVicker's Theatre bogan last evening to o small andienco. In re- serving “The Phantom” for the last, B Boucicault has not _studied effect with hi customary success, for eurely he should wish to leave behind him & more favorable im- pression of his genius as an actor and a dramatist. The piece, at best, must be con- sidered unworthy of the man who conld constrict 50 beautiful s-work as * Kerry,” the delicate fabric of which, preceding *Tho Phantom,” by comparison gecms to Tender the latter all the mora coarso in testure, stilted in movement, and commonplace in dialogue. The plot is wholly Dbased upon the supernatural, beig little more than a not over-irgenious elaboration of the old German superstition concerning the vampire, which, killod howeser dend. never fails to return to Iife if brought under the first rays of tho moon that touch the earth, but which, a la ““The Black Crook,” must thenceforth subeist upon the sacrifico’ of pnre young lives. The idea i distasteful to begin with, andin this instanco it is not sngar-costed with a° suflicient overlpyy of dramatic effect to’ make it moro then pessably palatabs. If “Tho Phan- tom " is produced as an experiment, in tho hope of catclung the favor of & whimsical public which would not render & fitting tribute of ap- preciation to the raro attractions of “Ksng," then it can be acceptod a8 a broad bint, and '3 well-deserved one. Very likely this was the in- tention, and if 8o, Chicago theatre-goers should consider themselves justly robuked. If they have been waiting for the sensational drems, hero thoy have it; the most weird, feerful, thrill: ing, that cau b imgpki‘ned. Now let us see if Rorry" and The Phantom " will prove moro potent when yoked together in violent contrest. HOOLEY'S OPERA NOUSE, .

CITY ITEMS, The Times seys Commissioner Bheridan com- municatéd an item of mews to “ a gentleman connected with a leading morning paper.” It could not have been the Times, then, to which reforence was mede, or that journal must have engaged 2 now man very recently. Johanna E, Regin, a little girl aged 4 years, residing at No. 70 Elm streot, was scaldodin & Lettle of hot water yesterday afternoon, and died soon after . in great sgony. The Coroner held an inquest yesterday sfternoon, and a ver- gict was rendered in accordance with the above acts. - A dotectivo arrived in the city yesterdaymorn- ing, from New York, bearing among his papers a requisition from Governor Dix; of New York for Evorctt, the allaged robber of tho Shotrwell railrond bonds. Everett will be taken to New York thisevening. He feels confident that the case will never como to trial, and says that he will shortly retarn to Chicago a {ree man. A serious gas explosion occurred yesterday af- ternoon 1n the basement of No. 118 Lake s:reet, occupied by Messrs, MacKenzie & Gittens, im’ porters of liquors. It appesrs that the sorvico- pipes in this building (as in many others) con- nected with the old streot mnins have baen left withont caps, so that when tho gas was admitted yesterday into the old mains it came out at tho Bervico pipes with great force, tearing up the floor of tho store above, and making insedsible two workmen who were in the yicinity, They were not, howeyer, serionsly injured. Last Saturday John Flynn, being thinly clad, and also dopleted in purse, concladed to better his conditicn, even at the risk of his peraonal liberty. To carry out this conclusion he entersd tho Briggs House by the Iadies’ entrance, and, roceeding up stairs to the room of Augustus a8, removed therefrom his overcost. _From there he went to the room of the Briggs House fireman, out of whose trunk he took $60. Just 88 ho was leaving, he waa met by tho fireman, who accused him of stealing the money. To esczpe detection and further investigation, the thicf at once gave back 850 of the monoy taken, and departed. He was, however, soon after arrested on the charge of stealing the overcoat, and is now at the Central Station awaiting trial. There wers startling ramors about tawn, yue- terday, relative to a terrible railway disastor on the 0is Central Road. Ono man went 80 far a8 to say that he saw a spocial train, Inden with eons, leaving the depot for the scenc of the accidont, which he claimed wes one of the worst that ever happened in the West. A reporter of TaE UNE discovered, upon questioning some of the officers of the road, that this man was a man of vast imagination. No special train left the city, and no snrgoons, oxcept such as peid their fare. The accident Was not a very serious one. The 8:15 trainto the South on Sunday evening mot with a broken rail at Peotone, » station sbont 45_miles from this city, and a few cars wero run off the track. = Three or four male passengers wero alightly bruised in consequence. "The St. Louis train due_here at 8 o'clock yestor- day morning did not arrive far many hours after- ward, being unable to pass the wreck. PERSONAL. Captain Sol.
