How TO PET CANARIES.-Says a writer
on c,n,lies: In this way answer the
question how had such luck with the
brds?' Simply by allowing the birds to
attend to their own affairs. and letting
them understand that their mistress would
never harm them. Also lccuStOmlng
them to plenty Of light, and air and COM
phny, rather than, as recommended in
books, keeping the cage in Il dark room,
for fear of Tightening the birds.
Make half the fuss directed in the bird
book over the matter. and you will have
doubtless, better success in raising birds
Never give them sugar, but I'LL the red
pepper they will eat. 1t is the best thing
tor them. And, if your bird feels hoarse
at any time, put Il piece of fat salt pork in
the cage, and see how the little fellow
will enjoy it. Give him flax-seed once in
4 while. and if he appears dnmpv occa-
slonilly give him diet Of bread and
water. with red pepper sprinkled in.
Open your Gaze door and give your pets
the freedom of the room; soon they Will
come ut Your caIl and fly to meet you
whenever Your voice IS heard | had one

ORLEANS SUNDAY MARCH 49,


Miss Mary Anderson closed her engage
ment at the st. Charles Theatre Last night,
playing Eradme before large audience.
This char acter, taken as q whole, has been
moro satisfactorily performed by the young
actress than any other in which Miss Ander-
son has appeaked. On Monday evening she
will commence an engagement ct the Varie-
ties Theatre. The previous engagement OF
the Kiralfy Combination at the ST. Cha rles
forbade her longer stay there; many friends
wished to see her amid the moro elegant
surroundings Of the Varieties stage; open
dates offered there through the noG-appeai-
ance Of the George R,gnold party; hence
the unusual transfer OF q star from one
to another theatre in the Same city. Con
sidering that Miss Anderson came here
during Lent, unknown as an actress, her
success at the st. Charles has been remark
able. It is hoped her good fortune will fol-
low her to the other house. She opens at
the Varieties ae Julia, In the "Hunchback, ]"
and before the close of the week will ap.
pear, for the first time, as Neg Merrilies.
AO-uSuG tU0 btdSo VI tuo oVs SuoAAoo
Theatre will be occupied by the Kiralfey
Brothers Combination and ballet, with the
regular company. illustrating Jules Verre's
amusing conceit, "Le Tour du Monde en-
Quatre -vingt Jours." The story is that OF
an eccentric Englishman. Phileas Fogg,
undertaking, for a wager laid in London
club house, to make a tour around the
world in eighty days. With a French
valet he commences his journey; At the
Suez canal detective starts ON his track,
thinking he is fugitive from justice; but
the tourist flies on, to Bombay, Calcutta,
Hong Kong, San Francisco, New York, Liv-
erpool and to London, reaching club house
on time. 1t can be seen that the scope for
exhibition of scenes and people is very
great. The story was prepared for the
stage by Adolphe D'Ennery, and had q years
run in Paris. Produced in this country by
the Kiralfeys it has been very successful
The ballet will be led by Mile. LIE Tourneur,
