Orchid of the schooner Ellen w. Sawyer,
ashore on Malpeque Bar, Prince Edward
Island The letter states that the Sawyer
and Eliza Thomes were entering the harbor

of ten barrels, all the mackerel on board the

bad position. Captain Balm, representing

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
TEN NIGHTS IN A BAR ROOM.

Charles Fl. Clark's company gave a good
representation of that old time and ever
popular temperance drama, Ten Nights in
a Bar Room" at City Hall last evening.
The audience present partially filed the
seats on the floor, while nearly every place
in the galleries was occupied. Mr.. Charles
H. Clark, as Gilpin Gawk, gave first rate
rendition of the part, and Mr.. George Coots
as Joe Morgan, while his acting was some
what heavy at times, gave a truthful repre-
sentation of the remorseful victim OF strong
drink. The Simon Slade OF Mr. w. ID.
Cough was good. Little Bessie Clark, as
Mary Morgan, won the applause OF the
spectators, and the singing and dancing OF
Miss Minnie Connor, who will be remem-
bered as one of the Wilkinson opera COM
pany, was evidently received with great
favor The other parts were well taken.
This afternoon and evening the play will be
repeated.

RIVERS AND HARBORS.

The President Considers the River and
Harbor Appropriations Meritorious.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-To all Associated
Press reporter the President said yesterday
morning that an examination of the River
and Harbor bill in the light of facts pre-
sented to him by General Newton, chief
engineer of the army, and General Parker,
of the engineer corps, with whom the Presi-
dent conferred on the subject, has convinced
him that on the whole the interests of the
Government demanded its approval, and
General Newton, who's" knowledge of the
condition of the present works and their
necessities for the future was based on re-
ports made to him by the engineer corps
of the army, assured the President that
of the items in the appropriation,
all but eight of the number, comprising
less than one per cent. of the amount ap-
prOpriated, were meritOriOus beyond ques-
ton, and while he in no manner condemned
those he was unable to give positive
opinion because of lack of complete in
formation concerning them. The President
maize as thorough an examination of these
items as possible and although with such re-
ports as were at hand he lad been unable
TO absolutely satisfy himself as to their
character, he found that all appeared to be
for the continuation of work already begun
and now in course of construction. The
President said he had gone over the bill as
fully as the data at hand and the time per-
mitted him for that purpose allowed and
while some of its provisions, not included
in it as above mentioned were probably OBJ
jectiOnable he was satisfied that the most
of the improvements provided for We're of
great Importance and he had found
that the loss which would
ensue TO the Government from the
deterioration of existing works. in case of
further stoppage, would be very serious and
that the amount OF moneys estimared by
the War Department at not less than
$3.50, 900, which would be required to pro-
tect and preserve the work begun and in
progress, upon which many millions have
already been expended, would in case of a
failure to continue il now, exceed by about
$500, 600 the amount appropriated in the
bill for items which. in the Judgment of the
Government engineers. might be unneces-

Coleman County. Tex, Appeals For Help
on Account of Drouth.
ABILENE, Tex, August Ga committee
of citizens of Coleman County, indorsed by
all the county officials, have published an
energetic appeal to the public stating that
three hundred families in that county EN-
bracing 1866 persons, are now destitute of
food owing to the drouth and require i'm
mediate aid to prevent starvation. Those
among them in better circumstances are
giving all the aid they can, but help from
other sources is necessary. Remittance to
the county judge at Coleman will be prop
erly applied. Up to this season Coleman
has been one of the brightest aud most
prosperous counties of Western Texas,
never failing heretofore to produce fine
crops. Besides its fertility it was rich in
native grasses, giving pasture to thousands
of fat cattle. This is all changed now, the
grass being burnt up as well as the crops.

A Wild Woman.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 5.-The little village Of
Benton is in a high state of excitement
over the appearance Of wild negro woman
in the neighborhood. She is said to be over
six feet in height, and as black as the sup
posed hue of his satanic majesty, with fiery
naDiacal eyes burning under the tangles of
matted wool that adorn her head.
She wears bot single gar
ment aud it is of insufficient length
to hide her knotted limbs. She has been
seen roaming about iRtlie woods completely
naked. Her camp is described as being a
rude, underground kennel, dark and filthy,
and scarcely fit to accommodate a dog.
The creature is supposed to live on wild
berries and roots, no other subsistence be-
ing obtainable in the woods. The police
will go out after her to-day.
