The FRENCH PLAY.-The idea in O.
French play may be unhealthy and per-
nicious, but its development is marked
by tendency toward refinement which
characterizes the French in all they do
Leaving aside the moral question, the
ugly in art can hardly be said to exist on
the French stage The drunken, sprawl
ing louts with which the eyes of the Eng
lish-speaking spectators are familiar are
not tolerated here. A certain kind of
loose dancing, common to the public
balls of Paris, which is seen in the thea
ter across the Channel and the Atlantic
in all its reprenensible extravaganza is
only indicated on French stage. | have
seen in what is considered one of the best
class theaters in London a stout man
drop down with a heavy thump into a
woman S lap. This would be objected to
here, not so much because Of the impro-
priety of sitting in such place, but be-
cause of the coarseness of such situa-
ton. For the same reason there is no
low comedian. as in Englfsh-speaking
countries. The drunken buffoonry Of
Toodles would not amuse nor the maud-
lin drolleries of Diggory. The pulling
away of chair from person as he sits
down would hardly meet with approval
in a theater of the Barriere The Gallo
spectator demands an exhibition of the
pretty and the graceful in speech, action,
decoration, and in these he is as exacting
as be is indifferent in the moral features.

AMERICAN MINING METHODS.

One of our Comstock mining engineers,
gately returned from tour of inspection
through the mining districts Of Germany,
saws there is nc engineering in Germany
ITO compare with that Oh the Comstock
Lode, and no aines in which the me-
chanical appliances are SO ingenious and
effective. He supports this assertion by
n graphic description of the crude and
primitive methods in vogue abroad. He
remarks that in the deep mines of Bohe-
mia. the hoisting apparatus consisted
merely of open tubs, and the operating
machinery was so poorly constructed,
that he dared not venture to descend. In
most of the German mines, he found that
men were compelled to walk up or down
to the scene of their labors, either by 60
ing down an incline, or by using long
parallel stills. which move up and down
alternately about six feet at a time. The
mode of ascending or descending on these,
is to step from one to the other, as each
ascends or descends, where a misstep
would be attended with fatal consequent
ces. His remark that in the Comstock,
the men went to the lowest levels, and
came up in two minutes without the
slightest exertion, was received politely
but incredulously. The character of the
mining tools employed is criticised in the
same uncomplimentary strain, and the
assertion is made. that an average days
work upon the Comstock would seem iu-,
credible to the miners of Continental Eu-
rope.-S. Il. StOcE Erchdaqe.

SWALLOWING HER TEETH.
[From the Pittsburg Gazette.l

About 80 o'clock on Saturday night
Mrs. Hoehn, wife of William Hoehn. a
plasterer, residing on Second street, was
playing with her little child. While so
engaged she suddenly threw her head
back, when small silver plate contain
ing four upper teeth in her mouth sud-
denly became detached and lodged IN her
throat. The silver plate mentioned was
about one and one-fourth inches long,
and about one inch wide, with ragged,
sharp edges, at the end of which were
fastened four teeth. In the, hurry and
excitement ensuing, member of the
family tried to force the obstacle down
the suffering woman's throat. so as to
bring 1t into the stomach. The plate
holding the teeth, however, was too wide,
and, moreover, the sharp edges caught in
the sides of the sesophagus a short dis
tance from the stomach, from which lodg-
ment it could not be moved The poor
woman suffered intense pain, as the OBJ
stacle cut the esophagus so badly that
also pressed SO tightly against the wind
pipe as almost to prevent her from breath
ing. DIR. Herman Hechelmann asim-
mediately called, and took along some of
his delicate instruments, which are rarely
used but in the most important cases.
When he reached the house of his pa
tient she was almost dead. The Doctor
went to work Immediately, and by the
aid of these new and important instru-
ments could see into her throat so as to
see the point of the silver plate lodged in
the esophagus. AS soon as he discovered
the location, he inserted delicate pair of
pinchers, and catching hold of the plate,
he drew forth-nothing, the instruments
having slipped. The poor woman having
become unconscious, and, to all appear
ances, dead. Dr. Hechelmann, however,
resuscitated her and made another trial,
and, after great difficulty succeeded in
bringing forth the cause of all the dis
aster Yesterday morning the patient
was still splitting blood, but all danger
had passed, and in few days she will be
as well as ever again.
DR.. Hechelmann deserves great praise
for the GOODNESS he displayed in such
critical ease, to which GOODNESS the sue
cess of the operation is mainly attribu-
table. In our recollection only one SINH
lar operation has been attempted here
heretofore, but without success, the pa
tient dying few DAYS after.

THE FINANCIAL SITUATION.

Inquiry among the leading bankers and
merchants proves not only that the mon
ey crisis is entirely past. but that business
is rapidly settling back to its healthy nor
mil condition. Money is becoming more
plentiful-although it can hardly be said
TO be easy as yet. Mondays collections
were extraordinary good, considering all
the circumstances, and an Improvement
over those of the preceding steamer day
The leading bankers state that the great
bulk OF obligations falling were promptly
met. partial payment made on others,
and in a few instances extensions were
asked and granted. The Bank of Califor-
MIA will open their doors for business on
the first Monday in October, when sew
eral millions will be added to the coin cir
culation. Considerable shipments of
coin are now in transitu from the East,
and arrangements are pending to still fur
ther relief. Very little of the money
withdrawn from the banks on the two
days Of the run has yet found its way
back but with the complete restoration
OF public confidence it will soon be put
into circulation and add materially to the
volume of our available financial re-
sources. AS the money market becomes
easier the demand increases for leading
stocks, which the quotations of the Cali
fornia Board show to be constantly ad-
vancing in price. Altogether the out
look could not be more encouraging, and
and it is matter of wonderment, when
all the events of the past few weeks are
mentally grouped together. how we could
have reached so satisfactory a condition
in SO short tines. F. Post, 18th.

SHOOTING A MANIAC AT SEA.

The British ship Jessie Osborne, on
her trip from England to Australia, met
the ship Glance returning home in mid
ocean. The eoutward-boundv vessel hailed
the homeward- bound one as if in distress
The captain of the Osborne informed the
captain of the Glance that one of his
crew had gone mad and stationed him.
self up in the rigging and could not be
induced to come down. He had with
him chisel, with which he was contin-
ually cutting the ropes, and he had in
jured some of the crew by throwing
blocks down on them. The madman had
now been in the rigging for five days.
and every threat, pelsuation and other
inducement failed to dislodge him. The
captain of the Jessie Osborne did not
know what to do with this mailman, and
called in the officers of the Glance to adj
wise with him and his officers. The
Glance advisors went aboard the other
vessel and took a view of the situation
The madman was immovble. A consul
tation was held and it was resolved to
shoot the mailman and bring him down
in that way. The best marksman among
the crew was selected as executioner He
fired three shots from revolver before
he hit the man, who managed to shield
himself by dodging behind the rigging.
Finally the fatal shot was fired, and the
maniac came tumbling down like bear
out of tree. When he was quite dead
the body was thrown overheard and the
vessels separated. The execution took
place in the presence of both crews, and
the Glance brought home the news of this
strange incident at sea.

SENSIBLE WORDS ABOUT ADVERTISING.
The following is from the financial article
of the New Orleans Picdyune M
The people who sit nervously in count
ing houses, or behind their goods, wait
ing for customers to take them by storm,
and making no efforts to let the world
know the bargains they have to offer, will
find the season very unpropitious. Many
of those have spent large sums in hiring
drummers and paying for other we'll
known appliances of trade, have affected
large sales, but swallowed too large a
share OF the receipts in such enormous
attendant expenses. The best remuner-
alton has been found by those who have
returned to more legitimate old fashioned
methods of pushing their business. We
say 1t not simply because we are inter-
ested in this line of expenditure, but, as
our advice to all who wish to be enter
prlsing and TO secure larger custom,
there IS nothing now SO effective to this
end as judicious advertising. little adj
vertisement may be like a gentle touch
of the whip to poor Dobbin's horse, "a
mercy thrown away !" but liberal out
lay Is almost certain to bring in Il large
return, and this will last even beyond the
current season. We do not believe that
any one who has valuable service or de-
sirable property to offer can fail of reap
ing rich harvest by continuous adver-
tising on large scale.

CR1cKErERs, heads of public schools,

CRIcKErERs, heads of public schools,
of athletic clubs, and Of the Universities
of England, have been long deliberating
over the merits of baseball. Their de-
cision is at last arrived at, and it is a
unanimous one. 1t is to the effect that
ball-ball is more fit for boys under l2
or Ia than for men, and that it is not
likely to find favor with English adults.
It is acknowledged to be an improvement
upon the old game of FOUNDERS, but
another objection is thus stated 1.-The
authoritative and dictatorial powers that
are welded in the game by the umpires
are sufficient to initiate against the pos
sibility Of its ever becoming popular in
England

THE FIRST MINT JULEP IN LONDON,

At that date 't1842) fancy drinks were
almost unheard of in the clubs, taverns
and gin palaces of London. Mr.. Hitten-
ger conceived the idea of introducing
these to show to what extent ice was used
in "the States for this purpose. He
therefore secured the services of several
barkeepers whom he had initiated into
the mysteries of mixing juleps, smashes.
aud other mixed drinks only known in
Yankeeland. His experience, as he re-
lates 1t himself, is very amusing. "I

ANorHER BREACH OF PROMISE CASE

ANOTHER BREACH OF PROMISE CASE
The Interior Neto Yorker, published at
St. townsville, tells this : A rich old Wild
over, living near this village, had a
blooming and affectionate widow for
nelghbor, and when he was taken sick
she very considerably nursed him and
supplied his every want. But when he
was convalescent she became aggressive,
and limited that he ought to marry her,
and that she would sue him if he refused
to do SO. Then the widower resorted to
strategy. One evening, when she called,
he was III his sitting-room without lights,
and the marriage subject was revived.
But you know never promised to
marry you," whined the willy widower.
But | can get big damages from you all
the same, said the unsuspecting widow.
Then there was chuckling noise all
around the room. and as the lamp was
lighted the widow saw three very respect
able married ladies sitting in one corner
listening to the conversation. The widow
is now sure she carried the joke rather
too far.
MAX ADELER tells new story, the gist
of which is as follows Bill Slocum was
nominated for Mayor of Pencader, and
one day in street conversation. he re-
marked, five got to win" He pro-
nounced it, awe got twin" and old
Mrs. Martin, overhearing him imper-
fectly, went around and reported that
Mrs. Slocum had got twins. The boys
at once decided to serenade Bill, and that
night they marched out to house, with a
band playing Hail to the Chief, seve-
raj ward clubs, some fire companies, a
group of white-dressed girls in wagon,
a lot of banners and plenty of enthusi-
asm. Bill made speech about the cam
vass, and then there was shouts of
" Where's the twins r. Bring 'em
out p and the like. Bill said there was
a mistake, but the band sarcastically
played, "Listen to the mocking bird, =
and the boys shouted louder for the twins.
When the truth prevailed the assembly
dispersed in disgust, and Bill was over
whelmingly defeated at the polls.
