MUSIC AND DRAMA.

The famous baritone, Charlie
Stan ley, has returned TO England
from Australia. He will come to

JAMAICA opens a worlds fair on
the 9th of this month, to which
nearly all the nations of the earth
save the United States have sent ex-
hibits. Central and South America
and Europe and Asia are all there,
but the North American continent is
practically unrepresented. Why the
government has not seen fit to make
any recognition of the efforts of the
Island to secure representation of
our American products is not known.
1t may be oversight and it may be
preoccupation with other things, and
it may be a little of both.

THERE are many who will regret
the veto of the silver bill by the pres
ident, more on account of the upopu-
larity of the act than on account of
any real injury the veto will 1ntiict
upon the country. The silver bill is
accepted on account of the demand
made for it by the west and southwest
rather than on account of any real
belief in its efficacy as financial
panacea.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.--The monthly
weather nnd crop bulletin says.
November has been colder than usual
over the entire country cast Of the
Rocky mountains aud warmer than
usual west Of the Rockies. Two cold
waves during tho month were attended
by unusually cold weather, producing
Temperatures FROM one tO two degrees
lower than ever previously recorded Tor
this season Of the year, aud carried tn.
frost line south over northern Florida.
During the month the precipitation
was In excess generally throughout the
central valleys, In tho lake region and
In the Dakotas, while less than usual
ON the coast and nom Texas to Me-
braskR.
Heavy rainfalls over the winter
wheat region doubtless resulted In some
benefit to the crops, but not rs much NJ

Temperature which mas loft the ground
frozen. the warm wave now extending
over the central valleys will cauee

According to the revised figures the
amount OF money In the treasury on
tbe aOlb Of June, exclusive Of ccrtifi-
Gates ia circulation for treasury held

$3.50. ii2. OiO belonged to the treasury

There was net loss Of $4,000 400 Of
gold and q net gain OF upwards oisiO,-
0OO. 600 In other money, and n cOnse-
ouent contraction of about tD,OOO,OOD
In the whole volume.
The treasurer computes that, during
the past ten years, there has been All
average increase OF $4,000, 900 from
the end Of June to the end Of Deccm
Der, In the amount OF money actually
In circulation, followed by an avefsge
