An OddGy IN Painting.

The provincial cities of France are
just now being entertained by remark
able artist, one who displays wonderful
skill in her own peculiar style of paint
ing. With plates of various colored sand
before her, she takes the sand in her
right hand and causes it to fall in beau
tiful designs upon table. A bunch of
grapes is deftly pictured with violet
sand, a leaf with green sand and relief
and shadows with sand of the colors to
suit. When this has been admired by
those artistically inclined, it is brushed
away and is soon replaced by bouquet
of roses or some other object, all done
with great dexterity and delicacy. Even
the finest lines are drawn with streams
of sand, all as distinct as though drawn
with an artists brush. Louis Re-

A Big Yield.

G. FL. Bullock, of Mortified, Mimi,
has obtained 1870 bushels of potatoes
from one acre of land. This is said to
be by far the largest yield ever known,
300 bushels being usually considered a
big crop. That the 1,120 bushels were
all raised on one acre of ground is sworn
to by a number Of Trustworthy people of
the vicinity. Mr.. Bullock will net 1896
for his product, nearly all clear gain.
Last year he would have made 5000 off
the same yield, as the price OF potatoes
was high then. The farmers in the
vicinity are considering these figures
and thinking Of potatoes good deal. =

She was Heroic In Her Way

A somewhat amusing incident oc-
CURED at an English provincial theater
during performance of "Called Back"
EARLY in the evening an old lady took
up her seat in the balcony and concen-
trated her attention on the play. When
Antony received his coup de grace at
the hands Of Macari the lady became
very excited and tainted. She was
taken down to the vestibule, and on re-
covery it was suggested she should leave
the theater. This, however, she de-
clined to do, being anxious to witness,
as she put it, "the beautiful. play"
She accordingly returned to her seat,
apparently well. The vision scene in
Act next proved too much for her, and
again she tainted. Once more restora-
tiyes were applied, and she declared her
intention of staying to the end. Nothing
occurred in Act II to arouse her sympa-
thies, but the Siberian scene in Act III,
in which DR.. Ceneri shufaes off the NOR
tai coil, again upset her neves, and once
more she tainted. By this time the man
agement had had enough of the thing.
