THE GEM CITY.
The ST. Louis Republican says:
Commodore Davidson and his beautiful
steamer was welcomed at every point on
the Upper Mississippi, and delegations
turned out en- masse to receive him. She
is certainly the queen of the river, and
Justly does she deserve the title, and Com
modore Davidson viii not stop here, but
will in less than season have a line like
the Gem City. He has waited upon the
wants of the Upper Mississippi people
many years, and well he knows them.
Steamer Gem City leaves to-day on her
second trip to St. Paul and all way land
ings at IL O'Clock, and Commodore David
son will command her in person, and with

SEASONS EXPENSES.

From these figures and from the further
fact that a circus commences the season
near the 5th of April and continues in the
field until the latter part Of September,
aiming to make about 15S different stands
or exhibitions, the yearly expenses can
readily be computed The average billing
expenses and livery hire per day being
$500, the season will neeessitate the ex-
pcditure of S95, 600 for pictorial announce
ment, The expenses directly connected
with the show representing $4,000 per
day during the season will aggregate
1895, 600. These two totals added
together gives $414, 900 as the cost of run

Gloomy view.

The Cincinnati Commercial, which
keeps remarkably well posted through
intelligent correspondents at Wash
ington, contained in its issue of yes
terday the following editorial, written
after two o'clock in the morning:
The measured, gloomy words Of
Secretary Blaine's dispatch to the
nations of Europe, through Minister
Lowell, last nigpt, tell the story Of
depression and anxiety as to the con
dition of the President.
1t seems as though by some ire
sistible, fateful 70. ce the most valu
able life in this country was being ex-
tinguished. Relapse follows relapse,
ana each finds the brave President
weaker-a step nearer the abyss Of
death.
Night before last he did not rest
we'll. the swelling in his throat dis.
turbing and gathering phlegm choking
him into wakeiulness, and yesterday
there was a rise in temperature, and
the distressing Symtom of vomiting
returned.
There is but little consolation in
the theory that the vomiting was
caused by the swollen throat, or that
a little water has been retained. The
trouble is that, in the Presidents ex-
hausted state, be cannot be long sus-
tanned unless the stomach does its
work kindly. If the throat swelling
has interfered, it is a symptom of the
utmost gravity.
1t is impossible to resist the imures-
sion that the last of the reserve forces
of the President are about exhausted
and that we are witnessing a struggle
between awful enerPies for evil on one
side and broken and failing strength
on the other. At last it is said th,
Presidents mind is clouded, and the
unconquerable will" that has SUSTAINED
him looses its grasp, 50 that he drift
like a helpless ship sinking in a storm!
sea.
The situation is not desperate, buI
the public faith that the. calamity
that would befall the Nation in The
loss of the President must in somt
mysterious way be avertedis faltering
! The faith has rallied again and again
and has been wonderfully restored anC
lifted up, only to be dashed down
God grant that it may be justified
but while hope is still vivid there il
no longer cheerful confidence or seri.
GUS expectation that the President cal

stnge PeoDle.

Speaking of prominent American
actors in general and Mary Anderson
in particular, the Louisville Post says.
1t is of interest to observe the
methods ofthe actors and their agents
during the summer interval. There
is a certain legitimate way ofbuilding
up character by means Of newspapers,
but it not only requires skill to do it,
but = certain basis of truth. AS a
result Of the summers work We find
many failures and a few pronounced
successes. Newspapers will republish
matters of genuine interest, and viii
even take hold Of ingenious romances
if they are not too palpably plants. "
John Owens seems to have been
under bad management. He has sui
fered a loss in those elements of char
acter which are so subtle and necessa-
ry to attract the public. He has per.
mitted it to get out that he is COM
PEELED to sell the last remnant Of his
property on account oflosses entailed
by his failures With his new plays.
The Map from C%attaraugus" was can
demned. That was an open fact. He
couldn't help that. But, greatly to
his misfortune and very ~unjustly, his
financial losses will be taken as evil
dence Of declining popularity. 1t is a
bad incident and omen for his coming
season.
Among those who have gained by
the summer rest and the gossip con-
nected with it are Booth, McCul-
Tough, Florence, Raymond, Der
Thompson aud Miss Mary Anderson
The Kentucky actress has especially
profted by the good will of tho cor.
respondents, the tact of her manager,
and her own way Of life. She appears
this season with a character freshened
up by incident. Let us see. In the
conception Of the public her home at
Long Branch is one Of the happiest.
She is averse to bathing. She has
amused herself with a yacht. Her
horses have been of the best that Ken.
lucky can afford. She has been repre-
sented as studious, affectionate in her
family, dashing, beautiful, pure, an
agreeable and hospitable entertainer,
a good talker, without open enmities,
liked and admired within and without
the profession. This is an excellent
character to start on the season with.
The qualities and the surroundings
indicated are genuine, it matters not
If in any degree designed for effect
professionally. She is the only actress
in the country and almost in the
world, which is saying a great deal, in
the possession Of such fortunate attri.
butes.
