SOME OF THE Tricks OF THE STAGE

SOME OF THE TRICKS OF THE STAGE
A great many tricks of stage costume
spring from personal defects. In what
everett Of the waist Modjeska appears,
there is always bunch of flowers or
bow placed at the left of her open corsage.
When this device is not resorted to,
little strap Of silk will be trailed across
diagonally, or little fan Of lace will sud
denly spring from the left corner in order
TO hide d scar on the left breast but looks
as if it might be the result of . wound
from q poniard-a souvenir" OF o no.
nance. Poor Lucille Western was afflict-
ed bysa birth.mark. She was regular
female Esau. About her waist there was
o thick growth. Of silky brown hair,
which ran up to point in front. Where
it came above the tops Of her dresses it
was carefully shaved, but the skin always
remained blue. So Lucille wore a huge
cross dangling just over that portion OF
her anatomy. Parepa Rosa had deep
vaccination scar far down her arm, and
when her sleeves were very short, knot
of ribbon or trail Of flowers used to
cover it. Before she grew SO extremely
stout she wore golden band above the
elbow to hide it, but when her armlet
had to be as big as a waiscoat she aban-
doned the oddity. One night, speaking
of this scar to an American girl who sat
in her dressing room, the Yankee offered
Parepa an immediate and effectual con-
cealment Of the offending spot. She took
enc Of the candles off the toilet table, and
holding it above the arm let one drop OF
the melted wax fall upon the place, and
there was no further need of concealing
devices. A dash of hesh-tinted powder
completed the cure" and Parepa's
makeup box forever after contained a
bit Of wax candle. -[New York Mirror.

Mr.. CUNNINGHAM, of the fourth
ward Irish relief committee, informs us
that the people are subscribing very
literally, and the same report comes
from other wards and committeeman
We are glad to hear this. 1t speaks
well for Memphis. Whatever we can
send to Ireland will fall like rain from
Heaven in parched places. We
know what it is to suffer and
to receive help in the hour of de-
spair from those we never saw and
will not until the last great day
Compared with other places we may
feel poor; compared with the famished
people of Ireland, our kindred, our
brethren across the water, we have
a great abundance, and can afford to
give liberally. All honor to the commit
teemen who are giving their time and
toll to this labor Of love and all praise
to the people of Memphis who pause
in their struggle to avert pestilence,
and repair theirruined fortunes to send
word Of sympathy, loaf of bread
and drop Of water, as it were. to the
stricken people of the beautiful island
across the sea. Sometimes, indeed, it
is more blessed to give than to re-
ceive. A country whose true and
generous people have fought success
fully and heroically, the battles Of
liberty under every flag save their own,
who have given the world its greatest
orators, 'sweetestl poets, and most
chivalric soldiers, and which is noted
for the wit, beauty and devotion o
its women, appeals to us for aid and
comfort. We will respond as becomes
a patriotic and heroic community.
The ball has been set in motion, and
even a child can add to its volume and
force. The nickle or dime of tn,
hard handed son or daughter of toll
may carry joy and sunlight to cot
tage where little children with hollow
eyes and thin bloodless hands look
gaunt hunger and starvation in the
face, Their gratitude will be sweeter
than the music of
"The harp that once through Tara's halls"
was heard, and will be more delicious
to the ear and the heart than the
applause of multitudes to the con
quering hero, Ireland-dear old suf-
fering Ireland, gem of the seat is
indeed a pleasure and privilege

IT is reported upon what seems
good authority that the Memphis and
Little Rock railroad has been bought
by the Texas and Pacific railroad,
and that the same company has bought
the Iron Mountain road If this is
true. Tom Scott has made powerful
combination, and is assisted by some
heavy capitalist-perhaps Jay Gould.
The people of Little Rock are seri-
ously alarmed, as they know that such
an arrangement makes that place a
mere way station for years to come.
Nor do we see any good for Memphis
in such an amalgamation Of lines. The
Memphis and Little Rock road would
becme a mere feeder for SCOTS
trunk lines. 1t remains to be seen
what the Memphis and Charleston
road is doing or what Will become of it.

Little Rock Gazette, 5tb.

Little Rock Gazette, 5th.
The following telegram, received By
u gentleman in this city, is significant:
NEW YORK, February Ar. X.
Lew has sold the Memphis and Little
Rock railroad to the Texas and Paci-
tic, and the same company has pur-
chased the Iron Mountain railray.h
Since the Inauguration of the rail-
way system there has never been 20
many changes chat effect the interests
ofthe South as within the past few
months. The principal roads of Ten
neSsee have undergone radical changes
Of ownership, while the storm has
swept over the States. Above the
cloud that covered all this speculative
turmoil, sat the railroad kings. glaring
into each others eyes, and with their
hands behind them, working their
wires. Mention of different rumors in
regard TO two OF the railroads, for one
VI which we are terminous, and for
the other the place for a long breath
and a cup Of coffee, has been made
IN this paper. Particularly so as to
the Memphis and Little Rock road.
IL was evident that the road kings
we're operating wires connected with
this road, but to the public the wire
was an invisible one Now the whole
matter is made clear. Messrs. Jay
Gould and Tom Scott have united
and purchased these two roads. This
combination can be Of immeasurable
harm to our city. If determinations
cease, through cars run and the reads
operated as they should be, our city
aud State will be benefited. But il
the power for discrimination granted
by non-opposition be exercised, then
indeed has an evil star arisen. If il
be 10 the two roads interest to assist
in building up Little Rock instead
of showing partiality to some city
below US, then Of course every inAu-
ence for our good will be exerted
Otherwise the result will be disas-
ftrously different. We have many
reasons, however, for believing that
the combination will not prove derog-
atory, and should, of course, view il
literally.
Col. Fink, general superintendent
Of the Memphis and Little Reck road
was interviewed by Gazette repre-
sentative yesterday. He h not re-
ceiyed any official information, but
does not doubt that the combination
has been made. lie thinks that the
union will be of decided advantage tC
our city.

IT will be seen by our Washington
special correspondence that Repre-
sentative Casey Young has addressed
letter to yShermaninquiring
why work has been suspended on the
Memphis custom house. No answer
has yet been received, but as the
Pennsylvania convention is over, and
the delegates instructed to vote for
Grant, perhaps Mr.. Sherman will find
time to give the matter his attention.
The LEDGERs agitation of this mat
ter we hope will bring forth fruit.

ScARLETfever is beginning to prevail
to considerable extent in the city,
and many people are seriously alarmed
about it, and apprehend an epidemic
Of this and kindred diseases. 1t is
commonly believed that this sickness
is caused by the cleaning out of old
privy vaults at this mild season of the
year. The stirring up Of so much
foul and poisonous matter and hauling
it By our doors cannot but be delete
rious to the general health. In fight
ing against one dreaded disease, may

EDISON'S NEW LAMPS.
How They Have Borne the Test
for Ten Days, and What
the Inventor SayA.

Much depends on the new lamp now
in use in Menlo Park. So far, nearly
ten days since they were set up, they
have remained without cracking, ex =
eept in one or TWO instances, where
the glass globes were imperfectly
blown. 1t will be remembered that
in the case Of the old globes it was
found that, although the amount of
contraction and expansion Of glass
and platinum were the same, one ex-
panied to its full extent before the
other, and the cracking of the glass
followed. In the new lamp it has
been found that the co-eihcient Of
platinum and of the new material that
is applied to the tubes at the point
where they are pierced by the platin-
um wires are equal. That is to say
the contraction and expansion are
simultaneous, as near as can be ascer-
tained. Mr.. Edison says. if these
globes hold out as they have given
promise of doing, there will be little
else to do but to put the whole plan
into practical operation.

ANOTHER upward turn struck the
cotton market to-day, and stimulated
our buyers and sellers to greater ac-
tNity. The value of the stock now
held here is full seven and half mil
lion dollars, and that already sold
since the .Season opened has realized
$4,000. 900. Our receipts are now
47.3lS bales ahead Of last
year, and 9,O5O bales more than
wear before last at this date, and pros
pects indicate that We viii handle
before the end of August not less than
495 900 bales. The recent bad weather
has checked the incoming movement
considerably, but when roads dry and
the snow disappears an increase IN
sbinmsnts to markets. anticipated. The
outlook for the future Of prices Is en-
couraging, and it is gratifying to state
that the planting community, both
land owners and lSborers were never
more independent or in better imam
cial condition.
