Tony Pastor In Trouble.

Tony Pastor, of New York, who is
now with his inimitabIe variety combi.
nation making tour of the principal
cities of the Union, is recognized as the
leading character vocalist and variety
performer of the United States. He
owns and runs first-class theatre on
Broadway, New York City, and has
gathered about him the best troupe of
variety artists that could be obtained.
The company has just completed bril-
liant engagement at the Walnut Street
Theatre, Philadelphia, and after the
present tour they will reappear in Tony
Pastors own theatre in New York City.
MIR. Pastor is the originator of his pc
culiar school of character singing, and
has made himself immensely popular,
having realized by his talents q large
| fortune.
The writer of this article met Mr..
Pastor recently at the Bingham House,
in Philadelphia, and found him as
genial in private as he is amusing be-
fore the public. During our converse
ton inquired as to his physical
health, and he replied that, notwith-
standing the strain upon him in the dis
charge OF his professional duties, it was
excellent. He bad occasionally severe
pains, either the result Of rheumatic at
tacks or colds, but any complaints of
that character never troubled him long,
as he had found ont q remedy for ali
such annoying affections. / asked him
what the remedy was, and he replied,
"St. Jacobs Oil" then learned from
Mr.. Pastor that he considered the Great
Glrman Remedy an excellent prepare
tion for the cure or relief of rheuma-
tism, and that it was about the only
thing used among professional people
for that distressing complaint. He took
bottles of it with him whenever he went
travelling, and would not be wi .hout it,
and knew that it was very popular with
a number of members of his own COM
| pany. A conversation held subsequently
with various members of the organiza-
ton revealed the fact that st. Jacobs
Oil had been performing most invalu'
able service for them in the way of cur.
ing them of rheumatism. Nearly every
artist in the troupe used it, and was en-
thusiastic in its praise, and the writer
was really forced to the conclusion that
Tony Pastor was certainly in luck in
having so valuable an article known and
employed by his inimitably good com
pany of performers, for it enabled every
one to be always in his place, thus in
surfing comfort to the management and
genuine satisfaction to the public
Tony Pastor would certainly be il
trouble without st. Jacobs Oil. A
least, other managers whose artists have
been temporarily unsupplied, have
noticed-the difference between st
Jacobs Oil in stock and st. Jacobs Oh
out of stock-among the members o
their companies.-New York Clipper

Down I'm Florida.

The st. Johns River is a queer river,
says a Florida correspondent 1t is
about $50 miles long. from four to ten
miles wide, and averages about foot
deep. In the centre, of course, the
channel gets to be quite deep. Some
times it has depth of forty feet Its
current runs about a mile day. pre-
sumo it would take about $50 days for
cork to float from the source of the
st. John to its mouth. 1t is salt for
fifty miles from its mouth, and brackish
for 100 miles. 1t is full of shad, catfish,
frogs, toads, cells, alligators and craw-
fishes. l don't know of any fish or
reptile that don't live in the st. Johns
River.
"Call this a river % l said to an old
alligator killer who was fishing for cat
fish off the pier at Palatka. "Why, it's
a great bay. It's no more river than
Lake Erie is. Lake Erie runs faster
than the st. Johns River"
"Thar you's wrong agen, stranger.
She's neither river nor bay /; she's q
COW pasture. Don't you see the cows
standing all over the river p
The man was right. All the cows in
Florida seem to congregate in the St.
Johns. There they stand in the water
all day long, slashing the mosquitoes
with their tails, while their heads are
under the water eating grass. 1t is q
strange thing, indeed, to see droves of
cattle feeding along river with their
heads under the water. They look like
lot of cattle without heads. They
will put even their horns and ears under
when the grass lays deep, and keep
4, them under sometimes two minutes.
They get to be as amphibious as the
crocodile. A submarine COW pasture is
an institution only enjoyed by the State
of Florida.
