WASHINGTON, NAY 20, 1888.

WHILE THE RELATIONS of Judge
Thurman to the Administration are
If the most friendly character, the
venerable Ohio statesman is not at an
age or in the vigorous health that are
likely to induce his re-entrance into
active politics. Whatever influence
he possesses, which is unquestionably
great, he will exert in such manner as
he best may for Mr.. Cleveland's re-
election, but not at thereconsideration
of his emphatically-announce retire
ment from public life. Hence while
it is but natural that the Democrats in
casting about for a Vice-P Presidential
candidate should turn in their dilemma
to Mr.. Thurman, it is not likely that
he would consent TO accept an honor
involving all the fatigues of a great
campaign, with few Of its compensa-
tions. But admitting that he might
be induced to make the sacrifice, out
of his lifelong and unbounded devo-
tion to the Democratic party, it would
not be just on the part Of the Demo
cratic party to insist that he should
forego the determinations and pref
erences of his old age to undertake
a responsibility which he does not
covet and which it would be physi-
cally hazardous for him to assume.

! The interest in this grand old play does not
diminish with age. but, like old wine. i'm
proves. For ten years the sensations of
4. Little's masterpiece have delighted the
lovers of spectacular melodrama, which is
popular alike among all circles of society,
from the elite in the boxes to the noisy and
ill-mannered gallery gads There has been
mach praise bestowed upon this work, and
thepress iudulgsd in mo- oexaggeratou in its elab-
orate description of this beautiful play, for
there is much in the creation that is exalted
and ont of the Ordinary wit of dramatic work.
Ii illustrates the trials of one of Uncle Sans
men-o'-war's men in such delightful man
ner as 10 at once command the interest and
close attention of spectators. Anyone who
has ever crossed the ocean. will at once con-
ccde the depth of the authors genius in To-
eating the scenes of his play and get the pic
turesqucuess of the harbor and the weirdness
of storm AZ sea, presenting picture that no
other play affords. j. IL. De La
liarpe, the artist, in his efforts to
draw upon his imagination, hut was en-
ploycd and sent to Australia by Mr.. Little,
and they give verS correct conception Of
the harhor and ON ship board. Act second,
shows us the deck of the "Fairplay" at sea;
the masts, sails, cabin, stairs, boats, etc. all
being as near realism as mechanism can
make them, Amid the rumhling of the
storm, the hurrying to and fro of affrighted
Tapping of sails and mighty rush of waters,
the action of the drama is unfolded; and as
most stirring incident of the play, produced
at the close of act second, the ocean steamer
sinks entirely out of sight in full view of the
audience. Act third shows us the world
famed raft scene, with its ten thousand feet
of canvas; and act fifth the hidcousness OF a
private unatic asylum and the wonderful
revolving scene, the magnificent moving
panorama, and the cxquisitcly beautiful
effect, the moon upon the Lake. Cincinnati

Not a Fruitless Subject.

In speaking of fruit our scribe CLEANED the
following from representative of II large
Boston commission house: "yes it will
injurc our iobbing trade here. But il looks
a. though the dealers of Augusta consider
ing the many other forward strides of the
past year, had taken a step in the right di-
rection in securing to your people the privi-
legc of being supplied with an abundance Of
fruit at low water mark Boston prices For
although you may not realize the fact, yet it
is the truth, that this city has not been up to
the times on fruit, when placed in comparison
with other places of like size.
Ia the last few years the supply of fruit
has increased at wonderful rate and the
demand has been abreast of the supply in all
cities where the facilities for handling this
immense product have been equal to tho
emergency first by creating demand by
supplying large quantities and second by
having it shipped IN very large lots at a time,
that it may be sold at low prices,
so that every family can constantly have a
supply on hand ut q price that would make
it seem not at all luxury, but hcalthful
stmulant TO use with their daily bread.
There is no one that can dispute the health
fnlucss of eating frnt every day of our lives.
Now the point with Augusta is right here.
The dealers have been buying in small lots
and had to pay commission, trucking and
freight expenses, that brought the price of
Florida oranges. for instance, much in excess
of what dealers in larger cities have pur-
chased them for, and of course they could
not sell them 50 cheap Now not selling
them at low prices has kept the demand
down, and more profit has been charged on
what has been sold to make it possible for
the trader To exist The new era that has
come in the fruit trade here now is, that, by
having the oranges come direct from the
/ Florida fruit exchange and sold at auction
here the same rs in Boston, the dealers have
chance to purchase fruit at a much less
price, saving all middle men profits, and Of
course your regular fruit vcnder will give
his patrons the benefit of low prices thus
secured anl build up large trade. Although
not making high profit they will by in
creased demand do much better in selling fruit
in larger lots at the small profits. see now
some of your active fruit men are selling
real sweet Florida oranges 10 for 25 cents,
and larger ones % cents dozen, the cheap
est they were ever sold in the city for the
size. The Massina oranges are only 10 cents
a dozen, and Valencias 20 dozen, so you
see if fruit does not take start here now"
