I'rnnk Kcnlston Is ono of the acknowl
edged local past masters of the game of
whist and In n talk with him a few daja ago
with reference to the long nnd short suit
argument ho said. "The fallacy of the piln-
clplo that the original lead of the longtat
null Is nlxxaa the best play has been fully
demonstrated In those modern duys of card
playing. Formerly to refuse to lend from a
null of four or more cards , unletn they were
trumps , was a flagrant violation of the
fundamental principles ot the scientific or
philosophical game ; n lead ffom two cards ,
regardless of the other components of the
hand , was even worse and a 'sneak' was
dimply execrable. But there has been a
change In the operations of brainy card play
ers. They no longer handicap themselves by
adhering to thcco musty old methods , but will
insist on exercising their natloclnatlvu
powers and rescuing to every trick-taking
device that presents Itself during the playIng -
Ing of a band. There has been no change
with the long suit "book" pla > cr. He pla > a
toJay as ho plu > rd twenty jcars ago , and
will not oven admit that the long-suit open
ing 'Is sometimes the most advisable for
certain hands , but Insists that It Is abso
lutely the best for nil possible hands. That
points might be scored by such manipula
tion aa Is calculated to establish and defend
the Kinall cards of n long suit Is n well
known elementary principle of whist. I
have known for a good many years , despite
the declaration of the so-called authorities
nud modern writers on the game , that there
nro jnany hands dealt during a serlca of
games from which the opening from the
longest suit Is bad whist , but the extent
of the deviation from this old-time principle
wholly eloperd upon the perspicuity and
Judgment of the player. But sou must
not Imagine I do not concede the proba-
bllltlca of opening from a long suit , ror i < io ,
nnd I always lead off from my longest suit
unless the disadvantages of fliich an open
ing clearly present themselves to my mind
and I have a shorter suit , such as n queen
nnd ono other , queen , Jack , with or with
out others , Jack and one or two small cards ,
which will enable me In the end to estab
lish and defend the small cards of my long
suit. "
The second International cable chess battle -
tlo for the Newncs trophj , now held on this
nldo of the pond , between America and Eng
land , will bo played February 17 and 18
The Yankco team will bo composed of Pills-
bury. Showalter , Burlllo. Barry , H > mca ,
Hodges , Holmes , Demar. Teed and Bampton
and the English , Blackburn , Leo , Lawrence ,
Locock , Tinley , Bum , Atkins , Mills. Jack-
non nnd Smith. The Americans will play
at the Academy of Music In Brooklyn , and
the Johnny Bulls nt the Cannon street hotel ,
London , while Baron Albert do Rothschild
of Vienna will net as referee ot the i-ontest ,
with L Hoffer , American , umpire In Lon
don and Prof. Isaac L. Recr representing
England In Brookljn.
While on the subject of queens nnd pawns
It might bo apropos to mention hero that the
collegiate tournament between Harvard ,
Yale , Princeton and Columbia , which ter
minated la ° t Saturday evening , was the
moat Important chess event In the history of
these great universities.
It let not only true that a greater Interest
was excited In the contests than ever before ,
but also a verity that the standaid of excel
lence of play has been much lifted up , and ,
as an outcome ot these two factors , there
has arisen the conviction that It will not
bo long before a great match at cherts1 will
bo arranged between the English and the
American universities. Such n match would
bo played by cable , and Plllsbury , who has
lately returned from London , has not only
received encouraging Intimations as to how
the proposal foi a match would be received
In England , but also has substantial agree
ment as to its flnanclal suppoit In Amer
ica. Hanard won the recent tournament by
far outclassing the pla > ers of Yale , Prince
ton and Columbia.
Notwithstanding the miserable success that
has Invariably attended the Invasions of
American racing men Into Europe , Eddlo
Bald Is now making his preparations for a
pilgrimage thither. SInce Zimmerman's suc
cessful tour on the continent somci years
ago , no American has been pnablcd to ac
complish an > thing extraordinary on foreign
tracks , and If Bald expects to do anything
startling1 ho will have to pedal much faster
than ho has In this country , notwithstand
ing It Is conceded that ho Is now our rcpre < -
HontatUo rider. Tom Butler , whom Bald
himself declared was the fastest rider In
America , was ridden off his legs In France.
To bo sura ho claimed not to ho In the best
of condition , but this did not have so much
to do with his failure as did the circum
scribed stjlo of the tracks over thcro and
the craftlnran of the men who raced against
him. Eddie should wait over there until
thoroughly acclimated , and then , as the time
made In thU country Is nt all distances
faster than that made In Europe , ho may go
4n and akin the whole 6utllt as a Parisian
would n frog , nnd come back home , with fly-
lug colors and a "kick" full of coin.
It looks very much as If Phil Daly , Jr. ,

the trap ehootcrs within a couple of hours'
ride fiom New York. The cluhhoiifcc Is an
elaborate affair and will be1 , when com-

parlor * , dining roorrfl and gun rooms The
clubhouse , In the center , Is two stories In
height , the second story being completely
of glain , giving an unobstructed view of the
shooting and of the surrounding country ,
and also affording a dancing floor of10x70
feet. The Interior of the entire house H
lavishly furnished and ( Ittil ( throughout.
As to shooting , the Mott system of Iron
traps has bccnadopted , of which there will
bo thrco sets. The trapping ulll nil be
done from deep tronchoa , while the pulling
will bo do vVlth a patent arrangement
which operates like the spindles In , a music
box. Thus the trapper will not know who
Is ahootlng , nor will the puller bo able
to control the device BO ai to tell which
trap will bo sprung. Almost all the shoot
ing on these grounds will be at blackbirds ,
which are said to afford far better sport
nnd to give harder shots than pigeons ,
though , of courre , both kinds of birds will
ho ohot. Thcro Is little hope , however , that
the Daly grounds can ever be made to rank
with the European Monte Carlo Here the
tournament ! will be open to the world , pro
fessionals , amateurs or whosoever sees
proper to pay the entrance. Across the
drink no professionals are allow el to com
pete. It Is ntrlctli an amateur arrange
ment , and the prizes range much higher
than they do on this side ,
The foot ball giants of Butte have nt last
boon checked In their Impetuous and irre-
olstlblo onrush. They went down before the
Olympics of San Tranclsco on Now Year's
day to the tune of 14 to I. In the prcacnco
of nn enormous crowd. The battle was a
cataclysm of hard knocks , a bucking game
of unparalleled flercencsi , giant ngalmt
giant , and when the Callfornlans evinced an
aptitude to annihilate the OollatliB from
Montana , the partisan crowd went all but
crazy. As the game wore along the Iluttca
bocatno worried nnd confused , and. Instead of
being aggressors , aa In all their former
games , they were on the defensive the greater
part of the time. There was almost an cn-
tlro absence of clover massing and support
tactics In their rushes , and at times their
sturdy line was tossed about llko so many
old shoes , nnd the relentless Callfornlans
fairly walked up the Held. It was a great
game , however , n fierce , bitter , Internecine
strife , In which hatred and mallco played n
prominent part , but which finally ended In
a victory for superior merit , skill nnd rcso-
lute playing. 'Appended will bo found Butte'a

Athletes are generally looking forwaid
with considerable oatlsfnctlon to the tarni-
val of sports to be hel-l In th" Madison
Square Garden on Saturday , February IS , un
der the auspices ot the Nov Jcisey Athletic
club. Included In the coateffl on this occa
sion will bo two linpomut nitlonal cham
pionships the ten-mile tun and the two-
mlle steeplechase. It Is the Intention of
the athletic commlttio to offer flvo pilzca
for the ten-mile run , it the Amendment soon
to bo voted on Is can led. The object In
offering an amendment to the constitution
of the A. A. U , In relation to allowing more
than three prl/es In cvciua of flvo tnllpa and
over was for the purpose of oncnuuglng
long distance tunning In this country flia
only distance run of Importance this jear
was the Marathon race , successfully con
ducted by the Knickerbocker club , nntrlcn
for the ten-mile event on the card are tx-
pccted from all the largo eastern cltlts
The two-mile steeplaoh iso will bo an at-
trnctho race , and It Is ulwa > 3 popular with
the spectators In addition to the above the
following handicaps are open to all ama-
tcura : SIxty-ja.M tun. handicap ; 1'20-ynid'
run , handicap ; 880-ianl run , handicap ; otie-
mllc run , handicap ; 113-yjid run , hiailicnp ;
onc-mllo walk , handliMp ; polo vault for
height , handicap , limit § K Incheq , and SSQ-
ynrd novlco run.- There will also bo two
blcjclo races and sevcr.il special evcnta , In
cluding a basket ball match.
After all the flourishing of cymbals and the
sounding of brass , the effort to bring about
an atHlctlc reconciliation between the- col
leges of Ynlo and Harvard Is likely to go for
naught. There was a lot of nice , amiable
talk made , but It aiems that this was only for
effect , and that the managers of the ) brawnv
lads of thcso two great universities are not
at all anxious to meet each other on the
friendly field of competition. That Bob
Cook and his last jcir'a 'varsity rowers hive
undoubtedly had a big Influence In staving
off this desired amnesty theio can
bo no mistake. Deb and his lads
have not qulto recovered from ( ho bltteincsa
of the defeat they sustained at Henley last
year and they are aching to got even. Bui
they never will. The trip across the big
ditch and the two or thrcu months' sojourn
on the other sideIs too nlco a tinap to past
up without a decisive kick , and If they can
get over there again this year by hook or
crook , Harvard can go to , for all they care.
The present crow has certainly been selected
with this ono historic event In view , and It
Is reasonable- expect that Old Kit Is to
take one more shot at the Grand Challenge-
Cup , nnd then , lose or win , she will bo rcadj
to kiss and make up with Harvard.
John Tecmcr , the veteran sculler , I no
tice , possibly urged on by the flattery that
ban been bestowed on Lehman , the Cngllsh
coach at Harvard , has 'had his Ilttlo say
about pulling a boat. John B wears that
the American style Is all right ,
Bob Cook's conviction that the Biltlsh rig
ging , oars , and movement are the thing not
withstanding. The Ametlcan balances , the
oar In the middle ot the gunwale , leaving
the same spread In the water nt nil
stages. Tills allows him the fullest leverage -
ago and enables him to work in nro sys
tematically and with better effect than by
the long sweep of the Englishman.
Alois P. Snoboda , the well known ph > s-
Ical cultuto teacher , Is contemplating a
trip to Km ope In the near futuio to In
vestigate Into the methods omplojed by
the eminent profcssois thcio nnd to com
plete his own studies In this delicate
science. The system now practiced by
Swobodn Is nntiiely new nnd that It Is
an Improvement on the older methods of
development and training Is attested by
the largo class , composed of Omaha's leadIng -
Ing business men , ho has now under pro
cess of Instruction nnd treatment. The
principle of Swoboda's system Is the an-
tagonlzatlon of the muscles under the con
trol ot the will power , which produces
not only exercise for all the unfsclea , but
also a natural massage for every part of
the body. "More people , " said Mr. Swo-
boda jestcrday , "havo at ouo time or an
other , In the past ten > cars , devoted some
time to physical culture than In the 100
years preceding. The success attained In
developing the body , however , has not
been proportionate to tlia Interest displayed
simply bccauau the systems In vogue have
not been up to the requirements ot the case
and ttiero has always been a demand for
some more economical system ot develop
ment and ono In which the overtaxing ot the
most vital organ , ot the body , the heart , U
not essential. Investigation Into thu models
In use will demonstrate that the heart gets
too murh work , while the will power and
nerves receive nn direct employment B.I
they should havo. rhslology lies taught
me that the voluntary muscles dn not con
tract without the application of u stimulus
through the nerves and unless you cultivate
and strengthen the will power ) ou may have
largo muscles and yet poasc d no extraordi
nary strength. In llfo the will power Is thh
stimulus , and the ucrvcs trarmnlt the same ,
nnd thcso must bo cultivated ua well as
the muscles to obtain the * most robust phjnl-
cal perfection and strength. Ibis cultivation
can be accomplished In Jollowlng my sjatcm
nnd applying the will power directly In
the mueilcB. By thoroughly locating the
scat and action of each muscle jou can
readily apply > our will power to any cna of
them. My work and research have taught mu
that every man can put his will power Into
the muscles , and thus work alonu and Inde
pendently any rmisrla of hla body

LINCOLN , Jan. C. To the Sporting Editor
of The Bee : Please explain In next Sunday's
Bee , for the benefit of a couple of sporty
boys down hero nt the capital , the origin of
the slang word "dope , " used so extensively
nowadajs by sporting writers. II II. Wills
Ans. Nltro-gljcerlno Is generally regarded
among chemists ns the most powerful of ex
plosives , and It has hold that position of
sinister prominence for a number of jeara
though recently other explosives of a higher
grade have been tested. The trouble with
nltro-glycerlno has alwajs been the Imprac
ticability of handling largo amounts of It ,
for It Is nt any time llablo to explode on the
slightest pressure , and an explosion of nitro
glycerine does not afford , usually , the wit
nesses of the occurrence a coveted oppor
tunity to give , cither orally or In writing ,
their recollections ot It. It Is susceptible to
heat , and when transported any distance-
upon a train , may , from the sudden starting
or Jolting of the cars , bo moved In such a
way that thcro Is Ilttlo of the train left , and
Ilttlo of the roadbed , either. Dynamite Is
a preparation of nltro-giy crino diluted
nltro-glycerlne , so to speak made up of CO
per cent of the original article and 40 per
cent of dope. The dope Is a composition of
nitrate of soda , wood pulp nnd magnesia ,
and the three together , when mixed In com
position with the nltro-glycerlne , materially
rcduco the dangers of sudden explosion from
It. and penult It to bo handled with some
approach to safety. In other words , the
dope Is a danger-deadener , added In order to
lessen the force of the nltro-glyccrlno , some
what as whisky Is occasionally diluted with
water , or brandy with soda , by bibulous In
dividuals , who do not desire to limit to a
few the number of drinks they take , vvhllo
wishing to avoid the danger of too many un
diluted beverages. Among workers In ex
plosives It Is a general expression that where
thd standard of the explosive Is of too high
a grade , some dope la to bo added. As the
UBO of opium haj a llko effect upon nn In
dividual , making him lethargic , drowsy , In
different to his surroundings , and apparently
careless of all consequences , opium has como
to bo known as dope , and a man who acts
as If under the Influence of the poppy drug
U said to bo dopy. A "dopo fiend" Is a per
son addicted to the opium habit , a "pipe-
hitter. "
ST. EDWAIID , Neb , Jan 3. To the Sport
ing Editor of The Bee Now that the state
of Nebraska Is on the cvo ot another session
of the legislature , won't U bo well for the
ahootors or gun clubs to get a move on them
selves in regard to the enforcement of the
game laws ? Since I left Omaha and made
my homo In the country , I BCO the necessity
for the protection of game. It Is killed at all
seasons ot the > ear , and shipped In season
and out of season.
If It wts not for the dollars and cents that
the pot hunters get out of what they kill
thcro would bo plenty of game for all. The
commission firms send out price lists of
game In July nnd then the slaughter begins ,
and by the first of September the birds that
arc not killed are so wild that there la no
sport In hunting them , and no one but the
market hunter gets any benefit. It Is no
apart to him , but a matter of gain and the
most worthless of all humanity Is the
market hunter. Ho ahoots old nnd joung
In season and out Just so they brhig him
money.
This season tnero wan in iioone county
plenty of birds , more than any time slnco
I have been In the eounty. In regard
to water fowl the law should protect that
class of game also. In icgaid to theN tlmo
of day they can be shot there should bo no
shooting between nun set and sun rise. I
have been'on the Platte In the spring nnd
the sand bars have been covered with ducks
and geese at dusk , and along In the night
you would hear the booming ot guns and
often > ou flco a boat or raft with a head
light floating down stream shooting and
driving the game off fiom their roosting
places , and the consequences were that not
a bird In to be seen In the morning , nor
will they roost In the same place the next
night but lcave > or go fartncr west. There
la nothing that will scare ducks or geese
llko shunting after dark. Nebraska needa
game wardens , or before long thcro will bo
no gama to shoot. I have spoken to Mr.
Kelstcr , ono of the representatives from
Boone county , nudjio has promised to glvo
this matter his attention It brought before
the legislature this session. Please lay the
matter open In The Bce . P. SIMPSON.

Considerable curiosity vvna felt among
local theater goers lljo past week ns to
what kind of entertainment "Pudd'nhcad
WIMon" would provMorvvIth dear old Prank
Mayo out of the ca t. Many predicted that
Itouhl bo anothcrvcas'c of Hamlet \\Hli no
mention of the melancholy Dane. Others
sanguine , hoped for bettor results , remem
bering that men havd passed away before ,
leaving hearts Inconsolable and a vacancy
In the world li Ich no otio seemed largo
rnoiiRh to till , and that nevertheless , the
wound has healed over and the gap closed
over somehow
The c\cnt proved the latten and loss ton-
tlmcntal h > pohMLi ( to be founded on the
deeper knowledge of human nature. The
play is Intrinsically stable enough to cn-
lUire , at least for a time , and another \
plajlng the title part to well that , although
ho never causes the strong and gentle orig
inal to bo forgotten , ho goes far to satisfy
even the exacting requirements of Mr ,
Mavo's most ardent admirers Mr Hamil
ton's conception of the role nnd method of
Interpreting It arc different from those of his
prc-dcccf.'ors , In that he doca not wholl )
succeed In convoying the Impression of sim
plicity and RUllelcssncsswhich was the
chief heart charm of Mr. Mayo's Impersona
tion. It may bo doubted whether the "se
lect Idiots" of Daw son's landing would have
needed to wait a quarter of a century to
nnd out what manner of man Mr. Hamil
ton's David Wilson was. Ihen In the mat
ter of the dog , one cannot conceive of this
Pudd'nhead expressing a desire for fractional
possession otherwise than with such a knowIng -
Ing expression of countenance that e\cn
the wlso men of Daw eon must have been
warned of his real quality. Hut this Is
largely a question of temperament , nnd a
temperament cnnnot 'be ' put on and oft like
a coat. Mark Twain may ha\e had I'rank
Majo In mind when he wrote the Htory.
Mayo assuredly had hlmrclt In mind when
ho prepared It for the stage Rut although
no ono but h.i ! originator could play Wilson
perfectly , It Is much to bo thankful for
that ono has been found who can play him
so conscientiously and In a manner so gen
erally acceptable as Theodore Hamilton.
Leaving the title role out of further con
sideration , the present cast will average
quite as strong as that with which our
play-goers became familiar last season. It
Is In many respects the same. Mr. Cam-
peau still offers his admirable Impersona
tion of the blackguard Tom , one of the
most thoroughly enjoyable character attunes
furnished by the contemporary stage. Miss
Orahamo ( Mrs Edwin P Majo ) fills , ns
heretofore , the full measure of the Ingenue

people have them In hhnd.

Although In the ; mturo of things com
parisons must have been made , It was found
that by reducing thorn to. the smallest
possible extent , enjoyment of the nresent
"Pudd'nhead" was vastly enhanced. Judged
strictly on Its merits , It Is an excellent
performance , and ono which qulto deserves
the patronage which It has been receiving
and will no doubt continue to receive.
An apology is duo Edgar L Davenport ,
whoso verses , enHtled "Today. " appeared In
last Sunday's nee. By an unfortunate error
of the compositor , which was again unfor

Davenport was made to talk sentimentally
of a "game of craps , " whereas ho wrote ,

Mme Adelaide Herrmann writes to the dra

lowing from last Sunday's Now \ork Her
ald The request Is cheerfully complied
with , as the Information contained In the
clipping will bo of Interest to the many
friends hereabouts nf the dead maglcldii
"M. Loon Herrmann , a nephew of the late
Alexander Herrmann , 'whom ho hopes to
succeed In popular favor In the United States
as a prcstldlgltatour. arrived on the Paris
jesttrdoy. Ho bears a striking resemblance
to his uncle. The chief phjslcal point of
difference between them Is that Leon is
somewhat the shorter. His features arc of
the same amiably Mephistophelean cast. Ho
Is about 30 years old and is a son of the
late Alexander's xbrothcr. Benjamin. Ho
studied and practiced 'tho black art with
his oldest uncle , Carl Herrmann , of Vienna ,
who died some years ago.
" 'riven If my undo Alexander hau not
died , ' said ho , 'I would have como to Amor-
lea although not so soon , for ho was ar
ranging with mo to Join him. I expect to
take , up my uncle's work as far as possible.
In co-operation with Mmo. Herrmann , about
the middle of the month. Meantime , I Intend
to do\oto myself to the study of English , as
my professional experience , with the excep
tion of ono month In London , has been con
fined to the coptlnent and South America.
"It will bo some time before M. Herr
mann acquires hisuncle's remarkable flu
ency of apocch. although ho has no diffi
culty In making himself understood In
English. That ho ha $ the family knack of
slolght of hand , hgvpv < : r , Is quite probable ,
as Iho trlcM with jcardn and apples which
ho did last night .Were quite as clover and
mystifying aa any of the same class of
tricks performed by hU uncle. "
The clnematograjin'o has not drawn this
week at Lloyd's as If should have drawn ,
principally because fW was handicapped by
acsoclatlon with a Dramatic corapaijy so bad
that people would tfAtwillingly suffer the
aflllctlon of It. It wbciia seem that "ono woo
doth tread upon another's heels , so fast they
follow. " The Blttners with the vltascopo are
outdone by the Nc-wolla with the clnemato-
grapho. Both machines furnish good en
tertainment , hut they : will never induce
crowds to sit through five acts of a dreary
and atrociously played : melodrama In order to
get a brief gllmpsti qthoui. .
Frederick Wardoraud Clay Clement will

Each deserves good patronage and well In

lect of the Omaha public In past seasons.
Although the wisdom of Mr.Varde'a openIng -
Ing his engagement on Sunday night maybe
bo questioned , ho Is ccitalnly bringing a
varied feast cf tragedy to such as crave that
kind of fare. As to Mr. Clement , the people

Augustus Thomas' iwcct-toncd romance of
the south , "Alabama , " comes to Bo > d' today
( or week's engagement , opening with a
inatlnco at 2:30 : p , m. Thn * play will open
In this city not aa an unknown quantity
but with all the prcitlgo attending former
aucceuful productions. Mr. Thomas chcau
wUoly In breaking away from tradition , and
choosing the Houth and southrons for his
it *
dramatic theme , row plajs have so touched
the hearts of the people ns has thU o I tuple
chapter of life In the land of the mnpnolla ,
The old coclal order In the south was
a hundred times more romantic , pictorial
and Interesting than that of the north.
Much also depends on the climate. It
affects characters and manners , ns well f
atmosphere nnd foliage. The people In
this play soothe and charm by a certain
languor which Is full of repose.
The purpose of the author vvcs to set the
ocuy , Indolent , drifting temperament of the
south In sharp contrast with the more alert
and expedient energy of the northern enter
prise The social complexities , Individual
alienations , the changes nnd sorrows result
ing from the civil war are effectively selected
03 a bickground for the picture
The characters In the play are nil true to
life not caricatures ; In fact they were all
taken from those whom Mr. Thomas met at
or In the neighborhood of Tnlladerta , Ala. ,
where the scenes of the play are laid
Popular-priced matinees will bo given
Wcdneoday and Saturday.
The presenting company , headed by Clem-
rnt Dalnbrldgc , numbers many who are well
and favorably known to Omaha theater
goers , and who have been Identified with
"Alabama" since Its first production.
The follow IP ? named people , headed by
Clement llalnhrldge , comprise the company :
Tred Mower , Harry M. Allen Krancls Nel
son , W. N. Wadsworth , Etta Alexander , L.
P. Hicks , Loula Shea , Leo Hanlcy , Helen
Weathcinhy , Kathcrlno Doollng and Miss
Ethel Irving.
The famous Alabama quartet w 111 be heard
In plantation melodies.
The ono great end attained by Mr. Clement
In his production of "The New Dominion , "
which ho will present for the third time at
the Crelghton for three nights commencing
Thursday. January 11. Is the bringing for
ward of n now creation In the dramatic
world. This Is accomplished but rarely by
the greatest artlsfs , and Is the constant
aim of every sincere actor
The performance put forward In the pro
duction of "The Now Dominion" cnttrtilna
with refinement and amuses with truth ,
abounding with bright dialogues , Interesting
situations and pretty speeches , among which
latter , one describing Baron Hohenstauffen'a
opinion of women , has been extensively
copied. The text ot the characterization fol
lows. "Tho kind of flower I allude to la
indigenous to all climates. It has been
known to the most ( superficial students of
botany from the very earliest historical rec
ords , and has flourished In various dcgrucj
of perfection ever since. The first mention
Is made of It , I believe , In the bible It
was thtn found only In the Garden nf Eden.
It Is not of tuberous nor jet of bulbous ori
gin ; strange to say , this flower was devel
oped from a rib , taken from one of the
genus homo. This appear * to bo the most
wonderful nnd jet the best product of that
species It Is also the only olmllar piaduct
that sprang from the name source , although
billions upon billions of rlls have since been
planted at nil seasons of the year , and In all
kinds of soil
"It appears that In the early development
this flower had n very scanty foliage at
first none at all but nov.adnjs the foliage
Is often so varied and extravagant In de
sign and quantity ns to puzzle the most
learned scientists.
"This flower MRS alwaja exercised a most
powerful Influence oxer the actions of man
In nn Imperfect condition It breeds sorrow ,
crime and death ; but who'll given half n
chance , It elevates mail from a barbarous
root-eater to the noblest being In all crea
tion ; makes him considerate of his fellowman -
man , Inspires- him a love for the beautiful
of this world. It makes brighter the sun
shine , and glvca comfort In the darkness ;
anil when the cold hand of death reels upon
hla brow , that flower breathed In hla ear a
sweet hope that wafts his soul awaj from
this world'on her fragrant bosom to the
great unknown.
"This genus Is comm'n'y calloJVcman. . ' "
During the coming engagement hero Mr.
Clement will be seen In "The New Domin
ion" on Thursday and Friday nights nnd at

monarch Mr Warde Is said to be at hla bus : .
On Monday night "King Lear" will bo pre
