RAILROAD INTERESTS.
An OLD SCHEME COMING UP AGAIN
THE OLMSTEAD PARALLEL RAILROAD TO BE
BUILT FROM HARTFORD TO BRIDGEPORT.

a
THE oLMsTEAD PARALLEL RAILROAD TO BE
BUILT FROM HARTFORD TO BRIDGEPORT.
There IS big precpice halfway between Green
wich Conn. and Port Chester of broken rock IT
looks like the abrupt ending of mountain range, or
would look so If the rock not broken into frag
raenfs Weighing 900 or 1000 pounds, evidently by
sledge hammers The preclpicc IS about thirty feet
high and fifty feet long, and 1t Is the beginning OF the
construction of the Olmstead Parallel Railroad, which
project seemingly ended with the death of tue org
nator of the scheme, after whom 1t was named, two
wears ago. For years tne Omstead Parallel project
ors appearrd through counsel before the Connecticut
Legislature, for a charter After much hard work the
charter was secured Then nothing was done for sew
eral years or until tie time fer the beginning of build
ing the road as provided by the charter When the
limit was about up the big pile of stone was dumped In
Greenwich. and thus the company complied with the
law and secured the continuation Of the charter But
hc farmers who expected the railroad go through
the middle of their barns and to cut up their finest
fields long ago got over fearing that the railroad
would trouble them.
The omstead Parallel comes up In a form
when people least expect It, The latest report,
which seemingly Is one worthy of good deal Of atten
ton from railroad people, is that number of men
who are large stockholders I'm the Standard OIL Com
pany have purchased the Olmstead charter in the IN
ercsts of the New England Road 1t is no secret that
a good deal of New-England stock Is owned by stand
ard oil stockholders The Flan 1t asserted, Is to
build the section between Hartford and Bridgeport
and at the latter city to with the Connecticut
AIR Line Road to New-York Tho contracts for the
construction of Connecticut Air Line have already
been given out and Is expected that the actual work
Of construction VIII begin on January J. The new
road viii bo built 10 compete with the ConsoIdated
Road on the traffic between New-York and Boston.

COLLECTING STATISTICS OF JUTE BAGGryG

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. Is (SpeciaD.-Thc Commissioner Of
Agriculture for Georgia has sent out questions to the
farmers regarding jute bagging The questions were
In regard TO the prices OF cotton baggng on October
l. 1887, and the date this year; the average
quantity used per bale; and the price of cotton; /;
and were intended 10 elicit facts which have special
interest at this time. At II yards per bale, It
requires As 100000 yards Of baggng for the crop Of
1878. At 50 cents per yard, the prevailing
price OF last season, the cost Of the baggng for that
crop was 81, ,OO5, coo. Assuming that the crop Of
the present year will equal that of last year, the
cost Of covering It with jute bagging, at II cents
per ward will be $6,3OOOOO or an increase OF

cess is immediate and is likely to be lasting
There brilliant house on Wednesday and
there have been brilliant houses every night since
Ruddygore' marked the exhaustion OF the pc
culiar vein of Gilbertian humor worked since the
first production Of Thcsps'' at the Gaiety
Theatre sixteen years ago. Tcpsyturvydom is
abandoned in the new opera with excellent results
Yet played 1t is as bright and airy as Pinafore'
OF The Pirates The piece now presented
is the perfection of o wcllrehearsed play. Dis
oussons as 10 the originality Of the plot are
without much point There were no colonels
in the time Of Henry the Eighth,
nor Yeoman of the Guard But anachronisms do
not destroy stage illusions. The fun seems
natural, unforced, and Gilbertian. The rhymes
show wonderful skill The music is the best
Sir Arthur Sullivan has composed, and
makes The Yeoman" real opera. The songs
will Immediately be warbled in all drawing g-rooms
especially "Whcn Maiden Loves a Laughing
Boy" Were Thy Bride" and " When Wooer."
The tenor who plays Colonel Fairfax is Mr.
Courtice Pounds newcomer at the Savoy, with
a sweet, though not very powerful voice. Mr.
Richard Temple plays Sergeant Weryll excel
lently. Mr.. Grossmiths Jack Point, the stroll
ing Jester, is excellent from first to last; his
patter songs are encored every night and are
already being whistled in the streets. Miss
Geraldine Ulmcr, as Elsie, the strolling singer, is
without flaw, as is Miss Jessie Bond in Phoebe
Weryll All apticipations Of the opera have been
justified 1t is the best thing Of its kind, proba-
bly,, in the history of English opera.
Mr. Mansfelds Partisan Romance" has not
mado the same impression as his " DR.. Jehyll
and Mr.. Hyde" His acting is recognized as
powerful Characterization, especially as
differentiation Of character, free al
together from any trace of his previ-
Gus performances. But NJ Octave Feuillcts
play is not in itself possessed Of great strength,
and suffered somewhat from British prejudice,
owing to the very marked intonation of most of
the members of Mr.. Mansfields company.
French play given in American accent struck the
critics ludicrously, and though the audience was
kindly, it was yet somewhat wanting in enthusi-
asm. For Mr. Mansfield there is nothing but
praise, but regret expressed at the disagreeab
ness of this second morbid study put before the
public 1t is probable that Mr.. Mansfield will
try one more piece, after all, before leaving the
Lyceum.
