Secretary Rusk confidently expects that
the law providing for the inspection by the
Depay tment Of Agriculture through its
Rureau of Animal Industry of all export
Cattle at the points of shipment will have a
beneficial effect upon our foreign cattle
trade, as it takes away the last groupd for
discrimination against American beeves be-
cause of alleged pleuropneumonia. From
the date of the establishment of the system
of inFpectiop, on August %, up to Novem-
Der s, the inspections amounted to very
nearly 100000 head. This denotes an in
GREASE over the shipment for the same time
last year. With the present status of our
Cattle production it would not require a
very great increase in the exports to make
a very sppTeciable change in values and
give needed relief to the fermer and stock
raiser. Tie Department can not do better
work for our agricultural interest than in
the line of extending our markets. There
IL room for this work in other branches
beside that of live stock. We should have
the world for our market.

nERNHARDr,s TRIUMPH.

The ssDivine Sara,, Captivates Her
 Audience By Her Matchless lmper-
 sonat1on of ssCleopatra,'-TheP Pros
 duction one of Unusual Merit.
 The appearance of Mme. Bernhardt in
 Cleopatra" last evening, added one more
 to the list of great theatrical events which
 characterizes the history of the Hyperion
 theater. The audience was not large
 one but the performance was simply
 grand. The date was an unfortunate one.
 Had not Manager BunneI been obliged to
 accommodate himself to other engage
 ments of the star it is not probable that
 he would have tried the experiment of
 presenting Cleopatra" here on Christmas eve, for to even 8 New Haven audience attending a French play is still trying an experiment.. To the real lovers of great acting ''La Bernhardt' would be in
 comparable even though she should speak the language of the Zulus, but the number of such devotees to
 the stage is limited. But if the audience was not a large one, it was appreciative, enthusiastic and patient. It's appreciation and enthusiasm was shown by the rapt at tention given to the artiste and by the ire quent and hearty encores accorded her. It's patience was tested to the utmost by the interminable waits between the acts which were, we believe, the longest within the memory of our local theater-goers. Of the play and it's interpretation little need be written. It was performance that one should see but not read about. Mime. Bernhardt is the greatest living actress, 1 and her impersonation of the Egyptian queen is among the very best roles in her long repertoire. Inimitable, wonderful acting, faultless elocution, indescribable grace, the art concealing art in every ges- ture and facial expression-these are the attributes which make her the greatest ac- tress of the nineteenth century, and with them all she has the spark of genius which enthusiastic admirers have styled ''divine." :" The supporting company was a good one and the play was exceptionally well mounted. The scenery, costumes and incidental music left nothing to be desired. Special mention should be | made of M. Darmont's impersonatien of ! "Marc Antoine" No artiste could have a
 more earnest, painstaking and responsible | actor for her Heading man" than MT. Darmont proved himself to be last even l ing. If Madame Bernhardt could be in- duced to appear here once more this sea | son when the holidays and "la grippe" shall have left us and the students shall | have returned to us, there would be a | large audience to greet her.
