A Distressing Predicament.

curious theatrical anecdote comes sfrom
Chicago. William Fl. Whalley, the actor, had
the part to Ilay Of Richard Craddock in ''The
Child Stealer" In one place he has to be hand
cuffed. ALI of this was regularly done on
Wednesday last.
The property man, whose business it is to sup
ply hsndcuffs, happened to have on bis feet a
palr of painfully tight boots that day. He locked
the handouts on Whalley's wrists at the proper
time, and, putt pg the key in his pocket, walked
out on Clark street to visit his shoemaker. He
forgot all about the key, and only thought of his
boots. Whalley, in few minutes after the cur
tain fell was seen in the dressng-rooms in a
state of furious excitement, calling aloud for the
property man. He was hungry; he had an en-
gagement with man; he wanted rest; he
wanted to get those accursed manacles off his
wrists.
The property man at that moment was blocks
away, swearing at shoemaker. Whalley was in
despair He said that man would be gone, and
his supper would be cold A file was procured,
and the stage manager began to saw through
irons. He commenced about o'clock, and BY
7:30 he had succeeded in filing through one Of
them. 1t was almost time for the evening per-
Torrance, and he had had no supper. There was
still another handcuff to saw through. A friend
suggested that he should 60.

The Invention of the Wheelbarrow.

Says writer in the July Scribner: 1t takes a
great man to do little thing, sometimes.
Who do you think invented that very simple
thing called wheelbarrow? Why, no less a man
than Leonardo da Vinci.
And who was he?
He was q musician, poet, painter, architect,
sculptor, psychologist, engineer, natural histo-
r,an botanist and inventor, all in one. He wasn't
Jack of all trades and master of none," either
he was real master of many arts, and a practi-
cal worker besides.
When did he live?
Somewhere about the time that Columbus dis
covered America.
And where was he born
In the beautiful city of Florence, in Italy.
Perhaps some of you may feel little better
acquainted with him when tell you that it was
Leonardo da Vinci who painted one of the great
est pictures in the world, s'The Last Super" a
picture that has been copied many times, and
engraved in several styles, so that almost every
one has an idea OF the arrangement and position
at the table Of the figures Of our Lord and His
disciples, though I am told that without seeing
the painting itself, no one can form notion Of
how grand md beautiful tits.
And only think of the thousands of poor, hard
WORKING Americans, who really own, in their
wheelbarrow, an original "work' of Leonardo da
Vinci

The Great Fruit Fair.

Next Wednesday, the 14th inst, is to be a
grand event in the history of New Orleans, and
the section of country tributary thereto. On
that day is to be inaugurated in this city the
great Fruit Fair of the Gulf States, and from the
| magnitude and completeness OF the arrange
| ments now being perfected, and the deep interest
taken by frut-growing friends in the country,
| the prospects OF magnificent display OF fruits,
vegetables, flowers, preserves, wine, etc., ETC.,
are encouraging in the extreme Never have
| thu people, both Of city AMI country, been more
thoroughly in earnest and never have they
united their efforts to one great and more effsc-
terprlse OF organizing upon a successful basis
the grand Annual Fruit Fair of the Gulf States !
The fruit crop OF the present season is gener-
ally better than it has been for the past twelve
years; the managers of our association, with
added facilities and largely in reased experience,
are enthusiastic and indefatigable in their efforts
to make their fair a success. The premium lists
are very liberal and comprehensive. Already ap-
plcations for transportation labels are coming in
by the dozen to the secretary Of the association,
and the lberality of the Express Company in Of
fe ing to bring all articles for exhibition free is
likely to be tasked to the utmost.
AS for visitors, all lines of transportation con-
verging to the city as well as the Mobile and Ohio,
the Vicksbnrg and Meridian, the Mobile and
Montgomery and other crossing lines have we
be ieve, agreed to bring passengers to the Fair
at hall rates, the arrangement beginning two
days before and ending two days after
the Fair. The hotels and boarding houses
have agreed to liberal reduction in board
and lodging. The largest and finest hall in
the Southern States has been secured for the
Exhibition, and full, unrivaled band has been
engaged to add to the pleasures of the Fair.
