The Trinity Herald in lengthy
editorial, for which, unfortunately we
have not space en- ough at our disposal
to reproduce, attempts to show the adj
vantages of that town for a cotton seed
oil mill. and, among other things says:
ga mill erected here would virtually
be at the mouths of four large navigas
be rivers, all of which produce
an immense amount of cotton an-
nually," aud then proceeds to call ups
on the moneyed men and landowners
to offer land and money. The Herald
is as silent as the tomb, however, re-
garding high water, which almost
annually distresses the people of the
lower Ouachita and Black river val.
leys. And, it occurs to us, that com.
pany with capital stock of 5000, 900
has no need of being niggard:y in the
expenditure of money nor is it COM
patible with their interests TO accept
gifts OF land. AS to the tributaries
should the mill be erected at Monroe
there will be no lack of seed to run il
and the Herald should remember that
there are some tributaries above Mon
roe that can furnish their quota of
seed. We are inclined to believe that
the fondest anticipations of the Herald
will not be realized.

MILE RHEA.
Mile Rhea, who will play at the Portland

next, has with her strong, supporting COM
pany headed by Mr.. Arthur Forrest. Of the
charming French actress and her rendition
of the characters which she assumes, the
Boston Herald speaks as follows:
In stature, Mile Rhea is little above the
medium height, with beautiful form, and
face which wins at once both admiration
and respect. Her voice is strong and fexi-
BILE, largely susceptible to m0dulatl0n, and
though betrayins sometimes trace of harsh
ness, it strikes the ear quite pleasantly. after
it's tones and her manner of pronunciation
have grown familiar. One of the most strik-
ing things about her performance last night
was the high degree of intelligence with
which her lines were delivered considering
the brief time she has been studying the
language. Her infections were perfect, and
though in the rapidity of excited utterance
her words at times ran together, it was evil
dent throughout the performance that how
ever inapt in her pronunciation of the Ian
guage in which she was speaking, M lie Rhea
comprehended thoroughly its meaning, and
her emphasis way appropriate to the spirit
of the passage rendered, as was the action
which accompanied it.
