Madame Bernhard.

The Illustrated London News
gives the following biographical
sketch of this noted artist:
Mademoiselle Sarah Bernhardt is
a Jewess; her mother was Dutch,
her father was Frenchman. She
was a pupil of Messrs. Provost and
SAMSON, professors of elocution. In
1862 she made her debut at the
Coincide Franchise in Raclne's
"Iphigenie," and the valerie" OF
Scribe. She was not successful
then, and she played at the Gym
nase and the Porte st. Martin in
burlesque parts. In January, 1867,
she returned to high art at Odeon,
playing several minor parts with
much applause, till she achieved
notable success in that of
Marie de Neuborg, in Ruy
Bias" She was thereupon recalled
to the Coincide Franchise, and first
showed her higher powers in San
dromaque" and "Junie;" but it was
as Berthe de Savigny," in the play
of lie Sphinx" performed in March,
1874, that she won the greatest APP
plsuse. Her magnificent rendering
of "Zaire" and "Phedre" have been
most generally admired. Mdlle.
Bernhardt has remarkable versatal-
ity of talents, being a tolerable
sculptor, painter, musician, and lit
erary writer. She is of an enter
prising disposition, served as an
ambulance nurse With the French
Army during the siege of Paris, and
has made several balloon assents, of
which she wrote an account. Her
genius is beyond dispute.

HOW IS

Your watchi Ten to one you never
think about it.
1t is slow to-day. You set it ahead.
1t is fast tomorrow you set it back,
and wonder why it does not keep
time.
How can it? The mere fact of
touching the regulator one way or
another does not compel the watch
to do its work properly, if some
thing is wrong inside. The deli
cate machinery is subjected to con-
slant wear, pivots are wearing one
side of the pivot hole, causing the
wheel to be forced out of position
and running in an eccentric manner
other little matters need attention.
How can it be otherwise; when you
neglect your time piece, and think
of it only when it refuses to go.
Have it done in time and save ex-
pense and perhaps your watch.
Remember we are SUCCESSFULLY
altering American key winders into
stem winding watches; we are also
demagnatizing watches that have
become useless by coming in contact
with electricity, and are making
good time-keepers of them again.

everybody knows that Russia Is
making extensive preparations for
war, and that her rivals are, on
their side, making counter prepare

must sooner or later take place.
Russia has been expanding enor-

River improvement.

The value of the work done by tho
government at the mouth of the Cape
Fear river was signally illustrated
early last month. The steamship FL
Monte, of the Morgan Line, was on
her way from New Orleans to New
York. On Sunday, May 10, soon
after passing Charleston harbor, fire
broke out in the cotton which formed
part OF her cargo. A stiff northeast
gale was blowing. Captain Quick, her
commander, determined to run for
Southport harbor about 100 miles dis
tant. lie made that port the next
morning, and, although his ship drew
81 feet, he crossed the bar OH neap
tide without trouble. The coaling
company at Southport assisted in ex-
tinguishing the fire and removed rs
bales of damaged cotton, after which
the Ell Monte resumed her voyage to
New York. In noting this occurrence
the Southport Leader says: "a sing
ular fact in regard to the bar Is that
vessels have passed over 1t drawing
more than the indicated soundings
made by the engineers" This simply
proves that what Capt. w. II. Bixby,
U. S. A., the engineer officer in charge
of this Improvement predicted, has
come true, aud that the Cape Fear is
steadily securing out deeper passage
over the bar.-Mannfacturers' Record.

Tspecial to Times.Democrat.l |

Washington, June 1.-Jhere Is prac-
tically but one opinion in Alliance cir
cles now on the third party movement,
but It is claimed by those who are in
correspondence with all sections that
there Is a misunderstanding as to the
state Of affairs in the South.
They say that the feeling there is
very earnest among those who are
already converts, but in the interest OF
the growth and final strength of The
movement they do not want 10 talk
third party 80 long before 1t is possible
for anything to be accomplished. The
Alliance wants the movement to be
forced by popular sentiment, and
not nursed into activity by so-called
leaders. An Alliance worker ventured
the assertion to-day, based, he said
upon Information gathered through
extensive correspondence, that If the
Democrats nominated Cleveland moi
more than three of the Southern States
would go Democratic, but that the
third party would carry things theil
own way. The strength of the thirt
party movement, he said, was thus de
pendent largely on the action of The
old parties, but that it would not b.
started if 1t was not thought that thel
could succeed.
