Modern stage training and Roscius contrasted
The Dramatic Mirror wonders if current training matches past standards as actors rise in skill but audiences remain easily amused. It argues Roscius favors personal flair over genuine character portrayal, notes the stock company helps steer art rightly, and cautions against overvaluing personality in Elizabethan and Georgian drama. A Pittsburgh source adds rail demand data, citing 2,000,000 tons needed this year versus 1,500,000 last year.

Stock Yard Deal Denied Amid Sale Rumor
Chicago Feb 23 George Williams treasurer and secretary of the Union Stock Yards rejects reports that the yards would be sold to an English syndicate. J C McMullin vice president of the Chicago Alton railroad says the deal aligns with his information, suggesting a price of 20 9 million rather than 30 million. Boston holds most stock and Chicago stockholders may be unaware until completion. John H Sherman president of the Stock Yard Company notes eastern stockholders could negotiate without his knowledge, calling 30 million a high value for the controlling interest.
