dressed ladies of the court of Amber.
Ono day the Ilnjnh began playfully to
make remarks about the swooping jupon
of llio princc&s , and taking up a pair of
scissors , said he would reduce it to the
fashionable length. Highly offended at
this nlayful remarks , she seized his
sword , and , assuming a threatening at-
tiludo , said that in the house to which
she belonged they were not used to such
jests , that mutual rcspoot was the guar
dian not only of happiness but of virtue ,
and she assured him that if ho again
dared to it'.siilt ' her ho would Iind that
the daughter of Harvati could use a
sword butter than thu pritieo of Amber

cled by the UKK , but It is to bo doubted if
the nainu "Lipton's House1' inadu any
Creator Iniprussioii upon the inlds of the
readers than anv other ninno would have
done. Yet the proprietor of the new
paokin house at South Omaha , Mr.
Thomas , ! . Lipton , bears the distirtion of
being ono of the largest retail provision
dealers in the world. In addition to the
packing house at South Omaha ho has

crowd of customers. The floors and

patterns , while the weights , scales , guard
rails , etc. , are of polished l ras . In
everything the most scrupulous uciitncss
is observed. Nothing that could give the
least oflunso to llio most particular ens-
tomer is allowed In any of the Mores.
In addition to supplying iiis customers
witli hog products from his Omaha and
Chicago packing houses , Mr Lipton has
been a largo consumer of American
cheese. One of the leading features of
his holiday display is the immense cheeses
made in this county. Last month three
of thcso cheeses , weighing 3,500 to 4,000
pounds each , and about tour and one-half
ieet in height by twenty feet in ciroum-
feri'iice , were snipped to Liverpool. In
manufacturing these cheeses it wasncccs-
btiry to construct a monster pre.ss , and
when each cheese cam-1 fioni thu Dress it
was essential to move it swinging upon
trunnions , so that it might be turned and
set either end up , much as Lieutenant
Gorring swung the obelisk this with
out marring the form of the cheese and
not causing if to bulge or change its form
in any nay. The success of this applica
tion of mechanical devices was complete.
The chcesiw present a great uniformity
of form am ! solidity , and are of remark
able excellence of qualitv , fully _ equal to
the best cheese 01 ordinary si/.e. The
sides are upright , the edges sharp , the
tops and bottoms Ibt and the whole as
perfect inform as a first-class fifty-pound
choose. These gigantic cheeses will , in
accordance with a custom of several
years' standihg , be cut at Mr. Lipton'a
leading retail houses , The excitement
attending the cutting of ono of these
cheeses , which had been for weeks ex
hibited in one of the great windows , c'in
hardly bo imagined. In order to increase
the interest gold and silver coins arc
sijittored through the cheeses. It is said
that many of the customers cannot wait
to reach homo before examining their
purchase , and tear open the packages in
the street , in hopes of lindintra valuable
com The lucky ones usually rush back
and buy another piece with the hope of a
continuance of thu good fortune.

AMUSKMI2NTS.
The AVaRCS of Sin in Its Scoond Pro
duction.
The last production of ' 'Tim Wages of
Sin" took place at the lioyd last night.
The night was snowy and cold , yet the
audience was reasonably largo , and satis
factorily appreciative. As a whole , the
company is inferior to that which pro
duced the same pi ceo hero last season ,
ami yet , it gave a strong representation
to the piece , but that of last year scarcely
loft anything to bo desired. Of all who
figured in the cast a year ago. Mr. Chas.
O. Manbury as llio curate remains. His
work is intense , and his effort throughout
of the most conscientious order. Moral
ists , however , may take exception to his
pummeling of the villain in the fourth
act , which results in the lattur's death ,
because the fistimifl's which loud to it
have been superinduced more by jeal
ousy , hatred , and a dcsiro for rovongo.
than as a means of saving the curate's
life. This inconsistency is the fault
rather of playwright than the actor ,
yet , strange to say , it is a species of mock-
heroic morality , which is not altogether
foreign to inigos of some of the later En
glish writer.- ) . Stephen Alarler , thu vic
tim in this case was undoubtedly a brute ,
and deserved punishment , perhaps oven
death , but it ill iiccumo a clergyman to
seel ; him out with thu heroic Ktatu that
ono or other of them must die. Of cnnrs/j
the villain dies , and the clergyman , it is
hoped , comes by hi.s own.
It may bo well , however , for Mr. Man-
bur > to know that his present company
is travelling mainly on the reputation of
the old one , and , it ho should bring the
piece hero next year , success will largely
depend upon an approximation to the
original presentation huro.
