as Mugs Lost and Won is u beautiful domestic
drama by BARLEY Campbell Esq" one of the
best dramatists living, and is well calculated 10
show some excellent points in Miss DENNIS acting
that will not be seen in any other productions this
play is fraught with interesting scenes and situa'
tions and worth seeing under ordinary circum-
stances but with such company in the cast, ana
such an actress as Miss Denim in the leading role
it will be doubly interesting. On Saturday even
ing the grand and thrilling play of Queen ELIZA
beth will be produced; in the titful character OF
royal Elizabeth Miss Denim has no superior in the
world, and her equals are as scarce as the equals
ofBooths Hamlet she is majestic in every motion
and every glance, until the last act when she ap-
pears as dependent and broken down woman
the wonderful completeness of the change must be
seen to be understood. Though an American ac-

have pronounced her unexcelled as Elizabeth by
any English actress that has rod the stage OF that
envious kingdom. This company will be in Mas

In speaking of American agricultural imple-
ments, European correspondent of tie Ohio Fur
rner says of a Canton company and their plows
"A similar victory was won in another trial by
that most useful of agricultural implements--the
Imperial Plow." These plows were sent to me
by the manufacturers, Messrs Bucher, Gibbs q
Co.. Canton, Ohio, to introduce them in Germany.
The farmers of this country pay very low prices
for their implements, Anew wrought iron plow
with steel shares costs from IS SlO But all Ger
man tools are coarse and clumsy, and am sure
no American farmer could make use of them. But
here farmers are conservative and hold fast to the
od.fashioned style, unil, after many trials, in
which the superiority of the American tool isfully
demonstrated, they are convinced ofits more prac-
tical applicability, and are compelled to say, "We
must give it up; the American Is aheadP

had then reached an eruptive stage. Attention
was called to him, as 1t was thought that he was
afflicted with small pox, but on examination by
competent physicians 1t was pronounced case Of
chicken pox and he was supplied with medicine
and started out of Canton. Our citizens should
take every precaution against calls from these
vagrant pilgrims, as there are many towns and

WE are informed that few rowdles made a
great disturbance through South Canton on Ii st
Saturday night, The small police force of our
city though they may be as watchful and attentive
as possible cannot afford that end of town protec-
tion and attend to duties in the upper portions of
town at the same time. The important matter of
police protection for the citizens of fsouth Canton
has been repeatedly presented TO the Council, and
urged by Mayor Shields but so far they have taken
no direct action in the matter.
