TURNER HARMONIC.
A Fine Musical Entertainment at
Turner Hall.

A Fine Musical Entertainment at
Turner Hall.
The entertainment and ball given by
the Turner Harmonic last evening at
Turner Hall was success in every way.
There were four or five hundred people
in attendance and the proceeds netted a
neat sum to the society. The Harmonic
was at its best in singing and the auditors
were delighted. 1t was composed of
twenty-four male voices, divided be-
tween bassos and tenors, and Professor
Kinross stated after the performance that
they never before sang better.
Mrs. DR.. e. A. Brune's solo so pleased
the audience that she was forced to repeat
it, and was afterward presented with an
piano solo was we'll rendered, and after
playing an encore she was presented
with a basket filled with exquisite flow
ers.
Albert Hart was unable to appear, and
in place of his number on the programme
Professor KinroSS gave a baritone solo
that brought forth prolonged applause at
its conclusion. The audience insisted on
an encore, but Mr.. Kinross politely de-
clined.
The following programme was rem
dered, after which dancing commenced,
the music being rendered by an excellent
orchestra under the direction of C. A.

GOLD BARS.
First Application of the sherman
Amendment.

First Application of the sherman
Amendment.
WASHINGTON, March 5.-The Treasury
Department is already called upon to act
under the Sherman amendment to the
legislative, executive and judicial appro-
priation bill, authorizing the Secretary of
the Treasury to exercise discretion in the
exchange of gold bars for gold coin, and
also to impose charge for such exchange.
Heretofore the statute regulating this
matter has been construed by the Treas
ury Department as against the imposition
of charge. Under the new law the
policy of the department will be to charge
four cents per 500 in value for all gold
bars required for shipment, and if this
fails to deter gold shipments, the question
will then be considered as to the adyisa-
bility of refusing altogether to exchange
gold bars for shipment, thus compelling
the shippers to use gold coin or to obtain
gold bars from private parties. A ruling
to this effect was first made yesterday on
a telegraphic order for S600, 900 in gold
bars for shipment from New York The
Director of the Mint, with the approval of
the Secretary of the Treasury, directed a
charge of $40 (or four cents per SlO0) to be
made for the exchange.

few square blows. Bishop appeared to
have the best of it, but McAuley got first
blood. Both men appeared to be badly
distressed for breath in the fifth round,
and Bishop being the stronger drove Nc
Auley about the ring and hit him in the
face several times.
When the last round was commenced
Bishop started in to knock out his an
tagonist, and appeared to have him at his
mercy, when MckuIey suddenly turned
round and landed terrific La Blanche
swing under Bishops right ear. The lat
ter fell to the floor like log, and lay
there until counted out. McAuley was
awarded the fight, and it was nearly half
an hour before Bishop regained his senses.
McAuley has been matched to meet
Englehart, and the contest will take place
in two weeks.

BISHOP BEATEN.
The Steamboat Man Could Not Stand

The Steamboat Man Could Not Stand
Against McAuley.
The glove contest last night at the
Comique, between McAuley and Bishop,
was a laughable affair and lasted six
rounds McAuley was the better built
man of the two, but Bishop looked as
though he might be capable of doing
some heavy hitting. He had wide
shoulders and a long reach, and would
have made a better standIihad he been
possessed of some science.
The first round found each man driv-
ing at the others body, and honors were
even, but Bishop was awkward and ran
about the ring ducking his head. In
the second, third and fourth rounds there
was weak in-fighting, clinching and a

IN A CANDY FACTORY.

a reporter visited one of our large
candy factories recently, says the I'm
capo News. to see how the luscious bon
bons are made
He found that in the manufacture OF
the best candies sugar Is used only as a
basis lust as flour * the basis OF an
cake. While we pay forty cents pound
for fruit cake. we know that Hour L
cheap and that IL Is the other lngredl-
ents and the labor that make the cake
expensive and delicious 1t Is the same
way with the cardy. The ingredients
used are sugar as a foundation mlXeo
with powdered nuts, fruit, leiiles, jams
and often chocolate to give the candy IL
delicious flavor. The best confectloners
use no fiavoring extracts with the ex
ception of vanilla
Caramels, that delight of every wom-
ans palate, were being made IN huge
kettles. sugar. chocolate and cream be-
ing the ingredients Men were doing
the cooking and constantly stirring the
brown mass in the kettles until 1t was
done. Then it was poured out on long
marble tables, and when cool enough

lar blades. Then a little boy and girl
deftly wrapped each caramel in oiled
paper and the caramel was ready for

tables men were creaming, working.

lined with sand) before the candy was

they would dough, while others picked
up some of a delicate green confection
and rolled it with little paddles into
dainty round mouthfuls. There We're
candies favored with nuts and fruit and
of delicate pink color and others of a
pretty shade of lilac. Some of the
workers were making candy with april
cot jelly for the principal ingredient,
and the pieces when done were piled
up in pyramids, to be taken downstairs
and sold.
The busy workers were all scrupu-

alone often being as high as ten cents a

The sale of chocolate candies has in
creased fifty per cent. in the last eight

| them as wholesome as delicious In the
| cheap factories most of the goods are

ed with terra alba (white clay), a proc
