In Philadelphia, Miss Miller brought

What is the matter with the crossing
at 9TH street on Commercial avenue2 The
mud ls not over foot deep at that place
and pedestrians who are caught on the
west side of the avenue and have business
in the middle of the block on the east have
the privilege of walking block or two out
Of their way or of waiing through the mud.
A gentleman out in Howell county,
Mo, caught flock of young quails last
spring. His efforts to dOmesticate them, il
seems, have proved very successful. The
birds feed and chirp about his premises
gentle as chickens, and it is said they have
very interesting knack of initiating al
most every bird they hear. The only evil
dence of their wild nature is habit they
have Of flying away daily, always coming
back regularly at the proper time.
A talented dramatic critic in San An
tonic laments that the new play Black
Dwarf, as exhibited in that town, lacked
all the elements necessary for q spectacular
success Still, "in many parts the per
formers were loudly applauded and in some
cases encored" by the San Antonisns. From
this it may be inferred that even the Texas
edition of the Black Dwarf is not wholly
deficient in the anatomical attractions that
make the Black Crook famous.

The Opera Hot Sc was filled last night
by an intelligent and appreciative audience
to witness Frederick Warde's presentation
of "Virginius.n Mr.. Warde's reputation as
an actor had preceded him to Cairo and
the high expectations of the audience were
more than realized From first to last he
was the recipient Of most unequivocal ad-
mirstion. There is nothing of the stage
rant and noise in his acting nothing stilt-
ed, and nothisg oyerdone. Every thing
was so real that the people We're carried
away back to the days of old Rome, and
made, for the time being, locker on with
the people of those old days at the life and
misfortunes of the heroic father whose
character he so powerfully delineeted.
Mr.. Warde in this as in all his great char.
acters, is entirely independent, -heimitates
no one. His style and treatment Of sub
jects is his own and stamp him as one of
the great leaders of dramatic art. His sup
port was excellent throughout, and his COM
pany is undoubtedly the best that has ever
visited Cairo. Tonight "Hamlet" will be
put on the stage as it never has been and
may never again be in Cairo
