His Wonderful Performance Here in War Times as ‘‘The Phantom.” “Perhaps the most remarkable play that Boucicault ever wrote was produced on the stage of a Washington theater,” said that vet- eran in affairs of the stage, Mr. Lloyd Moxley, to a writer for Taz Stan yesterday. “It was the @rama called ‘The Phantom,’ and the great dramatist had the title role. At that time Bou- cicault had but recently opened what was known as the ‘Washington Theater,’ which oc- cupied the building where the Theater Comique new is. That was in the year 1861. The build- ing was rented from Louis Carusi and was fitted up ina manner calculated to astonish the natives at that period. No theater in Wash- ington up to that time had ever known such gorgeousness. The auditorium was uphol- stored and the walls hung with satin and pur- ple and cardinal velvet. “Mr. Boucicault presented the character of the phantom in s manner that horriicd while it elec‘rified the audience. The character of which he took the part in the piece was that of a vampire nobleman. Repeatedly killed, he al- ways succeeded in renewing his life and diabol- ical usefulness by arts peculiarly his own. Whenever he was slain he would make a dyin request to the friend he took care to have wi him that his body should be placed that night ou the mountain top, where the first rays of the coming morning's sun would strike it. Upon the revivifying influence of these rays the vampire depended for resuscitation. The pre- seutment of this human nightmare by Mr. Boucicault was most horribly vivid. He ap- red on the stage asa sort of living corpse. toodless aud exanimate. So great was the strain of this extraordinry part upon the actor that, after it had been performed for a while iu Washington, Mr. Boucicault said to his ner, Mr. Stuart: ‘We must take this play off the Dills; it is too much for my nerves.” Boucicault conducted the Washington Thea- ter for three seasons, at the end of which he sold out his interest in the establishment. Many excellent plays were successfully pro- duced there under management, some of them of bis own writing, and he himself ap- peared as an actor in several. Boucicault’s last engagement in Washington ‘was filled in March, 1848, at'the National Thea- ter, the play being “The Jilt.” The last thing he wrote was produced last month in New York city by Sol Smith Russell, entitled “The ‘Tale of a Coat.” It was a failure and was with- drawn after one week's performance. BIGH AND Low comeDy. Mr. Harry Rapley of the National Theater a while ago addressed a request to Mr. Bouci- eault that he would give a definition of the difference between high and low comedy. The dramatist replied: “Low comedy includes all those and humorous personages who provol ter by extravagance and distortion of ‘These are designed to be laughed at, “High comedy is a delineation of the woak- Besses of human beings—to voke am use- ment or sympathy with light- tedness and Joyous expression. It includes such person- ages as by their good humor provoke spec- tutors to laugh with them or by their weak- nesses invite spectators to laugh with the author, Such is Sir Peter Teazie, also Charies — — Rosalind.

The examination in the case of Charles Thompson for violating the lottery law and the Postal law was continued by Judge Miller in the Police Court yesterday afternoon, Mr. James E. Bell, superintendent of the city delivery of the Washington post office, was on the stand when our report closed and testified that the larger portion of the mail received from bin D was addressed to M. A. Dauphin and that it was sent tohis attorney, Mr. Thompson. He could not state that there was any designation to Mr. Dauphin’sname. A large number of his letters were addressed to 607 7th street. On cross-examination witness said there wasa conference in the itmaster’s room in June as to the delivery of the mail. Chief Rathbone, Mr. Smith and some others were present and Mr. Thompson came in, It was talked of as the Louisiana lottery mail, bat Mr. Thompson was not there at that time. Mr. Thompson asked if it was not at this time that they demanded a power of attorney, and he prevented that of Mr. Dauphin and if he did not receive the mail the next day ‘Mr. Bell answered in the aftirmative, Detective Carter testified that Mr. heme said ho was the attorney of the Louisiana Lot- tery Company. ir. Carter was asked what he knew of the loffery policy. The defense objected and asked what light it would throw on the caso. Mr. Carter explained that policy lottery was &@ game of chance. He examined the ticket and said -it wus not connected with policy lot- tery. In policy the drawings were twice a day, and this ticket entitles the holder to a chance to draw mon By Mr. Thor m— Witness found him (T.) in bed. He said he knew nothing of the contents of the letters which came to the office; that the letters came there and were carried away, aud he had wot seen a lottery ticket for three yours. He said that he did not know the contents of Daupbin’s mail. ; This closed the case, and Mr. Armes asked that defendant be held. The defense said that there was not a shadow of a case, Judge Miller asked if they could not argus the case today, and proceeded to state the testimony as he understood it. It was not long before there was a misundor- the effect that he is gradually improving.

At the meeting in Baltimore yesterday of the trustees of the Maryland Agricultural College the grant of $15,000 made to the college by Con- Gress upon certain conditions was discussed. Tho Baltimore Sun of today says: “The chief of these conditions is that the money is not to be paid in case of institutions where a distine- tion of race or color is made in the admission of students, A saving clause provides that ‘the establishment and maintenance of such colleges separately for white and colored students shall be held to be a compliance with the provisions of this act if tho funds: ed in such state or territory be equitably divided.” An impedi- ment to the acceptance of the fund is found in a clause of the act which states the colleze re- ceiving each aid must have heretofore received aid from the state for the education of colored students in agriculture and the mechanic arts, There is uo colored institution in Maryland which has received such aid. The act states, | however, that sich an institution may be estab- lished. It was decided by the trustees to set apart one-fifth of the £15,000 to be received annually from the government, if tho above provision be Cog eae with, for the education of cdlored youth, but colored students will not | be admitted into the Agricultural College. It was proposed, though no definite action was taken, to make the Confereuce Academy. at | Princess Anne, Somerset county, the beneficiary | | of the fund.
