make early forays for fallen fruit. By
destroying wormy specimens they are a
great benefit to the orchards.

a CanitaI Comedy.

The Buffalo IN. Y Courier says of the
comedy 'sFun in a Boarding School," to
be produced here next week, 18th and
18th instants: 1.-THE comedy of Fun in a
Boarding SCHOOL, admits of every oppor-
tunity to display ability of a specially
character, and the cast of this company
met expectation in every respect. 1t is a
light, funny play all the way through and
each character has its cOmical bearings.
Mr.. Ince, as the Professor. did his part
admirably, and his rendition of the IA
nous selection from Dickens, Sergeant
BuZfuZ, was the best we ever heard. Miss
Ellani has a very good voice, and plays
her part with a great deal Of. animation.
Miss Jones made the hit of the evening,
her audience responding in most enthu-
siastic manner. Miss NewcOmb is hand
some lady, and a very fine actress. Harry
Mack is good Irish comedian, and Mr..
Harris is splendid in his triple role. The
play is mirth provoking cOmedyin every
shape, and those who want to enjoy good
laugh can have that opportunity, and
ladies can attend without fear of hearing
or Seeing ANYTHING improper"

A FAIR TEST.
Hecker's Perfect Baking Powder.

Heck er's Perfect Baking Powder.
The contract for supplying the United
States Government with seventy-tiye
thousand (75, OOO) lbs. of Baking Powder
during the ensuing year has been award
ed TO
HECKER's PERFECT BAKING POWDER,
it having been tested by DIR. Edward G..
Love. Analytical Chemist for the COVER u
ment. and recommended by him for its
excellence, and because it contained
HIGHER PERCENTAGE OF GAS
(which means that it will make lighter
Bread and Biscuit) than either the ''Roy-
al'' or any of the other cream-tartar bak-
ing powders which he examined. The
samples analysed by DIR. Love were fur
nished by the Government Commissioners,
and were without the manufacturers la
bel Iname, and designated with num-
Der known only to the Commissioners.
It will thus be seen that when Hecker's
Perfect Baking Powder is submitted to
AN IMPARTIAL TEST,
its superiority is acknowledged, and he
nopular verdict so emphaticallys eX-
pressed in its favor is fully sustained.

In appealing to public confidence we
would lay special emphasis upon the fact
that we rely rather upon the sincerity of
our promises and the quality of our goods
than upon ''catchy" advertising for our
success. We never make statements in
print that we are not prepared to "back
up with facts in the store. and the people
are fast learning that the expression,
'1only an advertisement" does not apply
to the Famous New York Clothing
House. We are Old-fashiOned in only one
thing, namely: rigid adherence to down
right honest methods of dealing. 1t is
only to this plan we owe our permanent
success. Those who would like to see one
of the largest exhibitions of Clothing for
spring, at prices decidedly lower than
elsewhere, should visit the Famous"

Hermann the WOnderful-His Perform
auca Last Night.

q LdSN
The audience at the Theatre last night,
though not large, was select and apprecia-
tive. The wonderful performance of
Hermann was watched with close and
engaging interest, and from the tirst to the
last of the entertainment the Professor
impressed every one with his marvellous
skill. The performance was varied from
the first evening, and several new and
attractive features We're introduced. The
legerdermain was the most satisfactory
part of the performance. The japanese
was remarkably agile and accurate in his
feats of balancing, and his performance
with a trimming tumbler of water, poised
high on a stick, and the feats with balls
and the whirling umbrella were so rapidly
and perfectly performed as to excite con-
stant wonder Mile. Adde'S posturing in
midair, with no apparent support, was
the most beautiful and graceful part OF the
avpninO'S entertainment.

The negro Tom Green, charged with the
murder Of the old eolOred man Brown at
the foot of River street year ago, was
taken out for trial yesterday. The case
was. however, not brought before the
court, owing to the absence of an import
ant witness, who was expected lastnight
from South Carolina. The trial will take
place to-day. The prisoner was securely
irOned and was attended in charge Of
an officer from the Jail. He appeared
wholly Indifferent Of the crime, and is
evidently beyond sensibility in feeling.
