Mr.. Milton MOBILES in his own famous
comedy drama Of the above title is per-
haps at his best, and brings to hear not
only his splendid stage business, but
also an order OF acting better adapted to
his talent than the somber and heavy
character in ''From Sire to Son." pro-
duced here also, as noted.
The Phoenix, while pre- eminent III It's

startling at times. Yet its portrayal of
natural incidents and every day life,
with genuine humor, is readily graspei
by all, and makes its deserve its long
run.
L: is scarcely necessary to again re-
mark upon the versatility and captivat-

The orchestral work done during the

but the hulls and engines of ships as we'll,
and if the cost of nickel can be reduced, it
is believed it will be adopted for all pur-
poses where q high grade OF steel is at pres
ent used.
Que OF the principal difficulties with the
use of steel for the hulls of ships has been
that it corrodes rapidly in the salt water
and barnacles and other sea-growths adhere
to it closely, thus requiring the bottom to be
cleaned and painted at short intervals.
Some recent experiments in Germany show
that the new alloy is much freer from both
corrosion and fouling. Secretary Tracy has
directed that some of the plates made by
Carnegie, Phipps & Co. be submerged, to-
gether with some ordinary steel plates, so
that these qualities of the metal can be
tested.
A Reduction in Cost Probable.
Investigations made by the Ordnance
Bureau of the Navy Department show that
the supply of nickel is practically mex
haustble. by far the greatest quantities of
it being found IN the Sudbury district in
Canada, and DIR. Emmens, at his works near
Pittsburg, is now engaged in reducing by
his new process considerable quantity of
the nickel recently purchased Dy the Navy
Department Tor experimental purposes. If
he is as successful in this as he hopes to be-
the cost of the metal will be much reduced.
Within the next go days Carnegie, Phipps
& Co. expect to deliver to the Navy De-
partment their first test armor plates, Of
which some will be all steel and others
nIckel-steel. These plates will be tested in
comparison with the two French plates
fred at in the recent armor trials. Their
armor plate plant is now complete, with the
exception of erecting the large cranes for
handling the plates, the hydraulic press for
shaping them and some special machines
for trimming and finishing them.
Their process will differ from that adopted
by the Bethlehem works, in that the plates
will be rolled in specially constructed mill
of great power, instead of being forged
They expect to begin the delivery OF armor
under their contract next June, if not
sooner. The Bethlehem company will not
be ready so soon, owing to delay in getting
their mammoth 125-ton hammer set up.

GREENWOOD. MISS, Dec. 7.-Gus Aron,
one of the best known citizens of the county,
was murdered at his store, at Roebuck Land
ing, Yazoo river.
Dennis Martin, in company with lot of
other negroes, was engaged i'll a game of
craps, close to Mr.. Aron's store. After
playing some time, disturbance was raised
among them, when Mr.. Aron went out
to demonstrate with them, and finding Mar
tin the cause of the disturbance, Aron ad-
vanced upon him. Martin drew his pistol.
Aron, being unarmed, retreated, when Mar
tin fred upon him without effect Mr..
Aron went into his store, and several col
ored men carried Martin in to apologize to
Mr.. Aron, and nothing serious would be
done with him. They took good care to
search his pockets, and not finding any
weapons, considered him harmless
The negro pulled revolver. which he
had concealed up his sleeve, and fired point
blank at Mr.. Aron, the ball taking effect in
the region of the heart, killing him almost
instantly. Martin then turned and fired
upon several others who were in the store at
the time, among them Phil Thomas, who
took up a double-barreled shotgun and fired
at Martin, breaking both his arms. While
attention was turned upon Mr.. Aron, Martin
managed to get away, and his absence being
discovered, a posse OF colored people started
out 20 hunt for him. When found he was
swung to a limb and his body riddled with
bullets

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1T is the under

Federal election bill is to occupy the major
part of the time of the Senate this week. A

The proceedings in the House during the
coming week can be outlined more clearly

the intention of the committee, to which is
specially committed legislation affecting
the District of Columbia, to press
to final vote, if possible, the
Atkinson bill to confirm certain rights in
the district to the Pennsylvania Railroad.
The passage of this bill has been stubbornly
resisted, and it is probable that it will con-

% per cent to visiting clubs, and only for the
way the organization was squeezed by the
Brotherhood revolt, they would never think of
raising the percentage. The Bnston trium virs

he can do to keep the present percentage from
being lowered, as the League never gave up
over 80 per cent previous to last season. 1t

Potash and substances containing
ammonia, the most simple of which is
the liquid portion of stable manure,
have also been used with beneficial eff
fects. During the fall of 1888 made a
small experiment, the object being to
destroy the smut on the seed; and since
this will be an important question with
many farmers this fall, I repeat the re-
port of that experiment from the Bul.
letin of 1889: The Hungarian wheat has
been seriously affected with smut ever
since it was first grown at the station.
Plot No. was drilled with wheat In its
natural smutty condition. while the
seed drilled on No. SO was stepped in
solution of su!phate of copper (blue
vitriol(, using the vitriol at the rate of
one-fourth pound to twelve gallons of
water. The wheat was then rolled in
lime and allowed to dry in the sun.
This left it in rather unsatisfactory
condition for drilling, and the results
indicate that our solution was too strong
and destroyed some of the germs of the
wheat. The smut was almost entirely
destroyed, the wheat from the treated
seed averaging only three per cent of
smutty grains, while Plot No. Z showed
forty-three per cent. of smut in the
grain threshed.
