Henry Miller ns a Kissing Expert.

Henry Miller. who, according TO the New
York Dramatic Mirror, is an expert, gave
his views on the important subject of the
stage kiss to aDetrot reporter.
1.-The public have a general idea that the
stage kiss is a sham and delusion, but they
don't quite see how it is done. There is al
ways room to get your head between the
audience and the person kissed and that
he Ds out the deception"
MI Miller AYERS that realism in this re-
spect would not do at all. ut might be dis
tasteful to both parties, and what would be
the use Of it? The ladies On the stage don't
want to be kissed by every man they play
With-that is, kissed as the lover would kiss
and it might not be pleasant to the men. -
This disposal of the matter Will relieve the
perturbed mind of the matinee girl, to whom
the stage kiss has been long a subject Of be-
wildering speculation.

Augustin Daily comedy, "7-20-S, or Casting
the Boomerang" will take the place of
1.-THE Magistrate" and be produced in ele-
CANT style and with a cast of exceptional ex-
cellence. The piece if played with even an
approximation to the carefulness of method
that marked the production of its prede-
cessor ought to enjoy an ample measure of
public favor. The text sparkles with bright
sayings; the situations, too, are dr0le, and
have about them a dramatic relish. The

The Manager and His Star.

Occasionally, says the New York Sun,
Miss Rehan and Mr. DAILY walk abroad.
The scene OF their dignified constitutional is
upon Madison avenue. On that quiet and
aristocratic thoroughfare they move along
unIecognized by the school children, nurses
and inyalids who affect the sunny side of
the way. Mr.. DAILY wears the same old
sbapeless hat, and the shoulders CT his coat
look dusty. He locks an unhappy man of
So. with short-clipped mustache, face on
which fUIty-eight hours of stubby beard is
always visible. and his carriage is wearied.
The contrast which Miss Rehan makes to
him is a remarkable one. She is a wholesome,
substantial and dignified-l looking woman off
the stage, with a fully developed, bust,
rather broad shoulders, and considerable
color. She walks easily and with the gal
looping gait with which theater-goers are
familiar. She talks constantly and with
considerable animation. Mr.. Daily listens
to her with an indulgent and kindly air.
The pair look like some rusty old professor
who has been taken forcibiy out of his study
by one of his mature married daughters,
ana who is being walked along in the sunlight
a good deal against his WILL

Cal. Siberia being Russian territory, it is
correct enough, generally speaking, to say
that st. Petersburg, the capital of Russia, is
also the capital of Siberia, but it is not
strictly true. Siberia is divided into four
goyernments-Tobolsk Tomsk, Yeniseisk
and Irkutsk; and four provinces-Y akutsk,
Tran baikaa. Amur and Maritime or
Primorskaya. The first two are under Gov

A seizure of twenty 5-tael boxes of opium

CHAAuzA-J. A. A. r., Searsville. Cal.
The words "chamisal" or "chemisal," as
commonly written, are undoubtedly cor
rupted derivatives from the Spanish
'chamiza," to mean thicket of brush or
reed. So the word "Sausalito," formerly
written "Saucelito," is derived from sau-
"a, -" salz," sauce" or "sauz," meaning
willow, from which is derived saucedal,"
''saucera and "salceda," plantation of
willows; and, again, from ''encina," an
evergreen oak, "encinal and "encnar,"
a small evergreen oak.

Yours is really catch-question, and, strictly

starts at the same moment; wien stopped,
every part stops at the same instant. The
top Of a wheel moves, however, faster than
the bottom-the top in the direction of the

tom in opposition to this motion. A prac-
teal demonstration of this can readily be at

EXERCISE AND DEVELOPMENT.

The Carpenters Right ould Grows
Higher While Cowboys and Cavalry
men Grow Bow-legsed.
A carpenters right shoulder is almost
invariably higher than his left, in conse-
quence of having to use his right arm all
the time in planning and hammering.
With every shaving his shoulder rises
with a jirk, and it finally becomes
natural to him TO hold himself in that
way.
The right arm of a blacksmith. for the
same reason, is almost h~yp5rtrophied.
while the left arm, from disuse, becomes
atrophied.
A shoemaker is almost always round
shouldered from continually bending
over the last between his knees as he
sews and hammers.
The head of a b~ricklayer's laborer is
held aloft with a naughty, self-reliant air,
from his habit OF carrying a hod on his
shoulder and looking above him as he
cliiabs uD the ~scaffoldIng.
All good orators nave most abnormally
wide mouths. This is the direct conse-
qence of their habit of using sonorous
words and speaking with deliberation
and correct pronunciation. III one prac-

alleging that the proposal simply con-

offices in the gift of the State, and
they have them through the will Of

Railway Commission is made in the

1t is the worst reproach Of the Re-
publican party in this State that it is
run wholly in the interest OF the
railways, and the State Gazette more
than any other element in the party
is subject to this charge. 1t is abso-

organ in opposing this measure.
