Mr.. Barnum says that he has wasted

boomerang returning of itself to fall ut

agent 60 from London to the wilds of

the accounts are two-thirds lies, and the
remaining third isn't worth bringing
away. The boomerang Is a fact, and
the native Australian savages fling it at
game-missing about as often rs hitting
and it will return, if it strikes nothing,
to somewhere near the starting point,
but with no sort of certainty. My man

At Denver in the winter of 1868, the
principal theater was under the man.
agement of John Langrishe. At that
time some six thousand union soldiers
were stationed there. The soldiers took
great interest in the theater, says the
Salt Lake Tribune, and were its princi-
pal, or q. least its most enthusiastic,
patrons. Every night the house was
crowded-particularly the gallery-with
soldiers. To please the boys in blue
Mr. Langrishe put on the "Siege of
Lucknow" Both men and officers took
great interest in the piece. They were
determined that it should be produced
in fine style. The soldiers made n lot
of bombs to be used in the fort scene,
the officers allowed two cannon to be
brought TO the theater for use in the fort,
and about fifty men, armed with mus
kets, volunteered to act as the attacking
army of natives. For two or three days
previous to the night when the piece
was to be presented there were more
soldiers at work on the stage and about
the theater than helpers of any other
kind. They bossed all the war-like pre-
parations.
The great night came and the soldiers
had the house. Not only were they in
the gallery but they also filled the seats
and the lower floor. Mrs. Langrishe
took the part of Jessie Brown. When
the attack was made on the fort the fir
ing was terrific. Then bombs began to
fall into the fort. These were balls of
yarn containing gunpowder. In order
to produce a good effect the reckless
soldiers who made these imitation
bomb-shells had placed in each nearly
half pound of powder. They made Il
report as loud rs the largest China
bombs. The bombs made it mighty hot
for poor Jessie Brown. In less than
half minute her dress was on fire in
two or three places and everybody ex-
pected to see her beat n retreat. But
those with her in the fort smothered
her burning dress and she stood her
ground.
The SUPP osition was among the peo-
pie of the theater that the cannon were
not loaded. The printing of the pieces
was TO be flashed and drum was TO be
struck to initiate the report. But some
soldiers had slipped into one of the
cannon n cartridge containing about
two pounds of powder. When those in
front had begun to reply to the fire of
the attacking party this cannon was
touched off and it blew hole through
the side of the theatre nearly eight
feet square. This excited the soldiers in
front, and those in the gallery began
firing their revolvers upinto the ceiling,
while those below turned loose into the
floor. In few seconds the whole place
was so full of powder smoke that one
could hardly breathe or see. The lights
presented the appearance of street
lamps seen through dense fog. The
excuse that the soldiers afterward made
for Kidding the floor and ceiling was
that all was so much like real battle
that they forgot where they were and so
began firing before they realized what
they were about That night all 1.-THE
boys in blue" felt that they got the
worth of their money.

When the rain had ceased the other
