"The Henrietta" Next Week
1.-The Henrietta" deserves the success it has
enjoyed throughout the country, because it is
one of the brightest comedies that has been
seen in many years. 1t is pure comedy-not
one of those wild constructions of absurdty
and mule-play, such as has been frequenting
the theatres the past few years under the title
of comedy. Bronson Howard has in it pro-
duced a play of which he may well be proud
The leading roles are acted by Mr. Robson and
Mr.. George s. Woodward, both having parts
in which they appear to the very best advan-
tage, and the supporting company is excellent.
The comedy will be seen mt Albaugh's next
week, and among those in the cast will be Mr..
Stanislaus Stange, Mr.. Edward j. Ratcliffe,
Mr.. Franclyn Reglid, Miss May Waldron, Miss

Many and diverse have been the criticisms
passed upon the music Of "The Red Hussar,"
which held the boards at Albaueh's Grand
Opera House last week, and, despite the fact
that the press has not been unanimous in its
approval, the opera has succeeded in pleasing
large audiences wherever it has been presented.
There is one merit the opera possesses in an
eminent degree, and that is its originality. The
music is distinctive and without the suggestion
of plagiarism. Some of the airs, too are
pretty, though not what may be termed
"catchy," and the story is of considerable in
terest. 1t may be said, however, that large
share of its success is attributable to the man
ner in which the opera is presented. Outside
of the choruses the work is limited to two or
three of the principals, and the music written
for theser6les, predominating in romance, leaves
the comedy element largely to the ingenuity of
the comedian and the Imagination of the audi
tor Miss Marie Tempest who sings the part
of Kitty Currt}l, was new to Washington. Her
voice is one of liquid sweetness and more than
ordinary fiexibility,and she sings with taste and
expression. Her acting is quiet and easy. Mr.
Herndon Morsell as Rdlph Rodney does the
best work of his professional career. He has q
number of excellent solos and duets, which he
sings with excellent effect. Mr.. John A.
Mackey is funny wherever he is placed and
although he has but scant material to work
upon he succeeded in extracting from his own
resources enough humor to make the part of
Corporal Bltady highly amusing. The chorus
was large and did very good work.

Hermann, the prestidigitateur, last week
mystifed very fair audiences at the National
Theatre by many new manifestations of the
black art, as well as some that were not so new.
In his sleight-of-hand performances Hermann
probably stands without peer, but in those
illusions which call for the use of mechanical ap-
pliances he fails at times to make the deception
complete. However that may be, there is no
question as to the entertaining powers of his
performance. The programme last week en-
braced, besides many tricks of magic, the
novelty introduced by Nine. Hermann, entitled
"Florine, Child of the Air. wherein a fairly
good-looking maiden is made to perform num-

Secretary of Agriculture Rusk has just
returned from trip to Grand Island, Ne
braska, where he has been to inspect the
large and wel-equipped beet sugar factory
there established. This is the only beet
sugar factory this side of the Rocky noun
tains There are two others in California
that have been in successful operation for
a number of years.
The supply of beets for this factory is
obtained by contract with over 600 far
mers, covering an area of 100 miles in
every direction, and stock of 1000 tons
of beets is deemed necessary before the
factory should start. The secretary con-
cludes that the outlook for successful beet
culture In this country is encouraging.
The dangers are the yentureSOnleneSs of
manufacturers, lack of sufficient capital,
and experience or complete plant, and,
with farmers, a neglect OF scientific meth
DDS and paIhstaking care beginning with
the seed which the sample crops of this
country have never received. 1t may be
interesting in this connection for our
readers to know that France produced
$50, 900 tons Of beet sugar last year; Ger
many 100000 TONS of which she export
ed 600,0 900 tons. In 1884 the production
of cane and beet sugar we're nearly equal.
amounting to $500, 900 tons. In 1890
beet sugar shows a gam In production
over cane sugar Of nearly 1000, 900 tons
We imported of beet sugar from Germany
Sl6,03l 43l, and Of cane sugar from Cuba,
SIS, 100000 II value We firmly believe
that with knowledge we can produce all
our own sugar at a profit. We raise
wheat corn, cattle and hogs, pay inland
and ocean freights, and sell them in COM
petition with these very beet sugar far
mers of France and Germany, and then
buy their beet sugar and bring it
home. We have cheaper lands, ever va
riety of climate and soil and bounty of
two cents per pound, which is one cent
more than either the French or German
government pay. Now why not study this
subject, and get out of the old rut of rails
ing all corn and wheat. If wheat-grow-
ing countries like France find it profitable
to raise beets and buy wheat. why should
not we find it profitable to raise beets and
less wheat, with three to four thousand
miles of freight cost and one cent more
bounty in our favor? The wheat market
of the world is becoming more difficult
yearly. 1t is an old system, and the oldest
and only buyer of Importance finds num-
erouS and urgent sellers and can wait.
There Is no hope in that direction, except
what occasional crop failures may bring.
Take 10000, 600 of acres of the 37,000,000
now sown with wheat and put it into
beets, and this country will have neither
sugar to buy nor wheat to sell. Now, far
merS, what DO you say to this?
