Chicago Not So Mean.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:-
have read with interest your articles on the
croquet question. 1t is real hard that gentleman
are not allowed to play with the ladies' In the
Park. Really, sir. think oroquet possesses no in
terest as game unless both ladies and gentlemen
Can participate. As a rule the ladies, In my esti-
NATION, are more fascinating than the game. And
lady has just told me that she would never play
unless gentlemen could take q part. How long,
let me ask, Is this horrid Board OF Park Commis-
sloners to continue In power9 have just come

Mrs. Conwny's Brooklyn Theatre.


"Marie Antolnette," a tragedy, purporting to be
historical was produced at this house last night,
with Mrs. F. W. Lander in the title role or the
piece little that Is favorable can be said. 1t is eX
tremely SAD, and possesses neither the merit of
being well written nor clevery cortrived 1t Is one
OF class Of pretended historical plays which aim
chiefly at the perversion OF history In order
to win sympathy from ignorance for char
acter the author has sought to clothe
with moral grandeur to which the real person
had no claim whatever. Apart, however. from the
fault OF inaccuraey the play has others less par
donable from dramatic standpoint, and which
would be SUFFICIENT TO prevent its acquiring popu-
larlty unless by the aid OF pnenorpena dramatic
genius Mrs. Lander, who undertook the
1t with much womanly feeling and dignity.
In the closing scenes especially there were many
passages OF undoubted dramatic force which did
not fail to receive acknowledgment at the hands
OF a select and Intelligent audience. Mr.. J. II.
Taylor as Louis XVI gave well balanced and
careful tnterp OF the weak and somewhat
amiable victim OF his ancestors crimes. MI. De
GroOt's Simon the cobbler, was also q fair per-
torrance, but the sauce or Mr.. Ahrendr was q
stupid burlesque that ought not to be tolerated
even IN hastily organized company. The setting
ana appointments OF the play were remarkably
good.

The ENGLISH WAY OF TAKING CARE
OF HoRsEs.-Some English grooms at
Saratoga are teaching Yankees the care
Of horses. | asked one of these grooms
who has spent twenty years in the stables
of royalty, what he had to say about
our American way of taking care of a
horse.
"Why, sir" said he, "you don't take
good care of your horses you think you
do, but you don't"
"Why?" asked.
Because, when horse comes in all
wet with perspiration, you let him stand
in the stable and dry with all the dirt
on. In England we take the horse as
he comes from the drive and sprinkle
blood-warm water all over him. from his
head to his feet. Then we scrape him
down and blanket him, rubbing his legs
and face dry. Thus in an hour he is
clean and dry and ready to take good
feed, while with your way he will stand
and sweater for hours, and finally dry,
sticky and dirty. Our horses never foun.
der and never take cold. We never use
curry comb; you scratch your horses
too hard. The only care necessary is to
have the water not too cold; than battle
them instantly, while you are rubbing
their legs. Cor. Commercial Adver.

substance is uncomfortable to flies, and
that they will keep at q distance from

THE CULTURE FOR LUMBER.

Timber is very scarce in many por-
lions of our State. Thousands of land
holders own whole leagues of land with
out a stick Of timber on them. Most of
the farmers of the q. S. have more land
then they care to cultivate, and it lies
year after year producing nothing but
tax receipts, etc. Now, would it not
be good idea to plant few acres of
this in forest trees ? Select quick grow
ing varieties, such as soft maple, chest
nut, walnut, hemlock, pine, etc. Gull
tivation will only be necessary during
the first two or three years, at the ex-
piration of which time the shade will be
sufficient toprevent the growth of weeds.
Plant-say twenty acres-and after
eight or ten years you can obtain from
it all the rails you will need for repairs
of fences, stables, etc., and irewood
enough for your own use, and some to
spare, without making any perceptible
inroads upon it. Each year thereafter
it will be increasing in value, and the
first two or three years cuttings will
pay first costs, interests, taxes, etc.
1t is the duty of every farmer to pro-
vide against the uncertainties of the fu-
ture, by leaving something to his chill
dren at his demise, if in his power to
do so. Could he do anything better for
them, requiring. as it does. so small an
amount of capital, than to plant them a
forest on the waste portions of land that
can be found on most every farm ? By
good selection of trees, and a little
cultivation for the first few years, you
could leave to your children a forest
that, in thirty or forty years, would be
worth thousands of dollars. The grow
ing scarcity of timber, occasioned by the
constant drain upon our forests. for the
thousand and one uses made of it, and
for which no substitute can we'll be OBJ
tanned, makes it appear to us that for
est of well selected trees would be, in
deed, very valuable forty years hence.
