San Francisco Call.

At the Adelphia Theatre, last night
while the play was in progress, and
just after the villain of the piece had
strapgled The heroine and was looking
around TO see if any one had been
watching him, a portion of the plaster
ing of the ceiling fell upon a number
of those comprising the audience. This
created panic, and a majority of the
people sprang from their seats and
rushed for the main door. Those on
and back o. the stage rushed forward
to see wha. had happened; even the
woman who had been strangled-in the
play-jumped mp and rushed to the
footlights to ascertain the cause Of the
commotion. In n few moments order
was restored, the audience resumed
their seats, and the strangled woman
walked back to the spot from which
she had hurriedly arisen, sat down on
the floor and rallied over, and pretended
once more to be dead, and the play
went on.

and there was enough wind and sea to
drown the noise of her paddles. All
of sudden, as the runner crept for
ward, the lookouts sighted one of the
cruisers dead ahead and advancing.
The steamer sheered to port, but in
FIVE minutes the other cruiser WAS
sighted and she found herself between
the two. Her engines were stopped
and the vessel hoated quietly be-
fore the wind. The chances were
that she would not be discovered.

been without smoke as long as he
could stand 1t, filed his pipe and
struck a match. The flame, tiny as it
was, betrayed the steamer. The
cruisers signalled each other and at
once opened fire. The shooting was
guess-work under the circumstances,
but it was good guessing. The very
first cannon ball carried away the orna-
ment on top of the pilot house, and
the second smashed ten feet of deck
railing. The blockade runner at once
started ahead at full speed, all the time
under fire, and as she ran away she
passed within hundred feet of one of
the federal ships. A solid shot fred
from this distance passed through the
runner just above the main deck, and
another grazed her bow, and the fed
eral commander hailed, "Come to or
I'll sink you !" There was every show
that he had it in his power to do SO,
but the runner steamed ahead, and
after an hours chase, accompanied by
a constant fire from the big guns, she
gave the cruisers the slip.

The Canadian farmers are in hard
luck with their wheat crop. Through
out large portion of the Province of
Ontario particularly the northerly
parts, the crop has suffered very Sc
verely from storms and rust. Millers
complain that the quality of the short
quantity brought to them is bad, and
will pay only inferior prices. At the
same time the immense yield in the
United States and the world at large
has greatly reduced general market
prices, and the farmers of Canada suf-
fer seriously. 1t is estimated that the
total value of grain and live stock in
that country is from % to 80 per cent
less than il would have been three
months ago.

A CLOSE CALL.

Just before leaving Nassau, one ene-
ming in 1868, the captain of the block
ade-running steamer Southern Cross
received information that two Federal
cruisers were lying in wait for him
about twenty niles off the coast. In
consequence of this news he ran to the
right of the track about ten miles to
avoid them. The Federal command
ers suspected that their presence would
be known i'll Nassau and theaefore ran
TO the left of The track.
The runner was fifteen miles at sea
when night fell. Every light was put
out, the speed was slowed down and
every man a board was cautioned to be
absolutely quiet, no matter what oc-
Cured. The firnen opened barrels of
tar to be prepared for sudden call
for increased speed, and the steamer
crept forward into the darkness. Ow-
ing to her color she could not be seen
a quarter of a mile away on that night,
