to give up Booths Theatre on the expiration of
their lease, May l. I'm the LIST day OF May, 1874,
they leased the building for three years at an an.
nual rent OF $4,000. They sought a renewal Of
their lease At a reduction, which the owners re.
fused to make, and this refusal has been the prln.
eiple ground for their determination, though
other Influences have also beon at work. Mr..
Palmcr's continued III l.health makes II desirable
that he should be relieved, temporarily at least,
from the cares of business, and Mr.. Jarrett has
long had In contemplation trip to Europe. They
opened the theatre for the first time under their
management on August 10, 1874. On tho whole
they have been successful. The engagement OF
charlotte Cushman proved one Of the most pro.

Carlo Guasco, one of the famous tenors of
twenty years ago, the great rival OF Mario and
Tamberlik, has Just died, DoniIetti composed for
him "MariA di Rohan," Verdi, "Hernanrf and
II Lombard" He was one OF the most romantic
tenors. Rich, we'll educated, ch!yalrOus hand.
come and indolent, he was always great favor
te with the ladies. His artistic reputation was
achieved mainly In Italy and Russia. In ST
Petersburg. having been one evening insulted by
his stage manager, he attacked him with the
stiletto he had to carry in "Maria di Rohan," aud
was banished from the country. OF late years he
had entirely withdrawn from the stage. Anot her
death to be registered was that Of the WIdev OF
Auguste Comte, ths father Of positive philoso-
ply. The death Of Francois Auber, which occur
red some sir years ago, has Just been recalled TO
memory by the erection OF monument over his
grave at the cemetery Of Pere la Chaise 1t Is
very strange that tho French, always so proud Of
their celebrities, should have waited so long to
ray this tribute to the memory OF the talented
and genial composer. Auber had altogether very
bad luck after his death. His body narrowly ss.
capped being lost aner the Commune, as IL had
been deposited In the vault Of a church whsre the
bodies OF dead Communists were stored. IL was
only by the mersst accident It escaped being bu-

squats into a one-sided shape, and is
very apt to fall down and get under foot
A string or screw-eye in the handle to
hang the broom by is often in the way of

factory are the usual ways of disposing
of a broom that the inventive Yankee
has taken up the matter, and patented
broom-holders are offered for sale to
housekeepers. But one need not wait
for the vender of the Patent Broom
holder" to come along; just put two
wooden pins into the wall about two
inches apart, TO admit the handle be-
tween and allow the broom part to rest
upon them, and you will not need to
buy, as you have as good broom-holder
as can be invented.

Fighting Among the Clouds.

In marching from Alexandropol to
the passes of the Soughanlu Range.
where Mukhtar Pasha's army was posted
the main column of the Russian army
advanced about one hundred and five
miles in two months. Alexandropol lies
at an elevation of 5,079 feet above the
sea, and Kars, forty-four miles distant
is about one thousand feet higher
Erzeroum lies one hundred and twenty
nine miles southwest of Kars, at an
elevation of 6,400 feet above the sea-
Half way between Kars and Erzeroum
are the crests of the Soughanlu, rising to
height of $500 feet. The district be-
tween Bardess and levin, where the two
armies were encamped, is between $500
and 5000 feet above the sea- These
mountain defiles defended the best road
in Armenia; for beyond Zewin and
khorasan the Russians could have
pressed forward without difficulty. They
could not capture those impregnable
passes; their hope was that the left wing.
by advancing from Toprak- Keleh toward
the Koprikoi, would compel Mukhtar
Pasha to retire and leave the road open
for the Russian center.
ToprakKaleh, where the Russian left
wing halted before the recent engage
ments, is $500 feet above the sea. Be-
tween this point and the river Aras are
the spurs of the Ararat range, over 2, 900
feet higher than the Soughanlu Noun
tains. The mountains near Zeidekan.
where the first battle was fought. rise to
to height of IL, 276 feet At Delibaba,
where the Turks achieved their sue
cesses, the mountain passes are 8, 400 feet
high. The road on these mountains is
impossible for two-wheeled carts. From
Toprak-kaleh there is a tolerable road
leading across mountains $500 feet high
to Kaghisman and thence to Ardost and
Kars. This was the only road by which
the Russians could send reinforcements
to the left wing when it was attacked by
the Turks in strong force, and it is the
only road by which this column can re-
treat if its communications with Bayazid
are cut off. -. .-.-.....-
The Russian right wing, which cap
tured Arabian and advanced to Olti.
did not cooperate effectively with the
central column. Theexplanation is very
simple: The road is scarcely more than
bridle-path, and not available for mil
itary operations. The same NAV be said
OF the road from Batoum to Erzeroum,
along the Chowk-Su, and also of the
southern or Meschingerd branch of the
road between Kars and Khorasan.
Meschingerd is 1850 feet above the sea,
and Geshevan is stillhigher, 1870 feet.
