''LOst in New York"

Leonard Growers famous ''tank'' drama was given a fine production at Jacques opera house last night. The play is one of the best and most suc- cessful of all the sensational and realis- tic dramas because it docs not depend entirely on it's elaborate scenery and realistic effects, for it's success. It is a pretty story full of human interest and free from the "blood and thunder" that so often mar plays of this kind. It was interpreted by the original cast includ- ing Louise Galloway, Adelaide Cotton, Henrietta Scott, Annie Eager, Baby Lillian Spencer, Gus Pixley, Ca brother of Annie Pixley, the well known starr John Archer, W. F. Garfield, E. A. June Henry c. Todd, William Ballert and Gus Fish. The matinee was held this afternoon and this evening the play will be given its last production here.

HE ovuRLoo0ap SOMETHING,


 A North Carohnian writes to the or gan of the Peoples party at Washing ton, the National I'iep, in advocacy of the home manufacturing of American cotton, and the prominence given to his article would indicate strong editorial indorsement. This writer starts out with the statement that the supply of cotton outside oi the United States will not supply the world more than sev- enty-fve to ninety days in the year, or, about g per cent of the actual require Inents ef the cotton-wParing world. He woah iuprive Ecgiani of our raw cot ton and export only cotton cloth. "Why," he asks, "sell cotton at 6 and : cents q pound when we can manufac- ture and sell the finished goods at 30 cents popnd?" To this question he adds that "6,0O0,000 bales of cotton manufactured into the finished goods would bring us a revenue of $l ,5O0, ,000,- 900 annually" The writer proceeds to paint in glowing colors the benefits to the country at large and the south es- pecially of this proposed change. When it comes to ways and means for carrying out the idea, he remarks:
 "Put a prohibitive tariff on cotton, re- serve the home market to the cotton planters until Europe has exhausted the supply of Egypt and India, manu- facture all the cotton at home and sell the finish goods to other countries and recieve the profits now derived by other nations. We have monoply on couoD goods and can fix our price and command all the trade in the civilized world now controlled by other coun- tries."
 One important fact has been over- looked, namely, export duties cannot be levied under the constitution of the United States, and consequently any restrictions upon the export ation of raw cotton, not Co say abs olute prohi- bition, would be out of the question It may be conceded that 1t would be very great blessing to this country if the cotton we send abroad went in the form of cloth, but that IS matter which cannot be secured by con gressional intervention,
 So long as English wages are so much lower than American wages it is use less for this country to attempt to man ufacture all or any considerable part of our cotton for the foreign markets. We can manufacture the greater part of onr own cotton goods, and that is great advantage to the country. It saves g great many millions of dollars every year. So far as concerns exportation by force of constitutional provision our trade is unrestricted. In many coun- tries duties on exports are still levied.

The Cremation Idea.

It seems to be gaining favor in the United States very quietly, but surely There are now thirty-one cremation so- cieties in the country. most of which have furnace and mortuary chapel of their own. The organizations are more numerous west than east, and m the north than in the south. In the south there are only three cremation societies one at Louisville, another at St. Louis and a third at New Orleans. where. on account of the swampiness of the soil tombs for ordinary burial are built above ground. California alone has three cremation societies. The crena- tionists are going to hold national convention of their own this summer at cool, delightful Detroit, at the same time of the meeting of the American Medical association. Then the quickest and least disagreeable way of turning a corpse into harmless smoke and ashes will be discussed
 Up to the present time nearly SO0 bodies have been incinerated by the New York Cremation society alone since the beginning of 1886. One argu- ment in favor of this method of dispos- ing of the dead is it's cheapness, the cost Uf an average cremation funeral being less than forty dollars. The medical profession throughout the country very generally favor it for sanitary reasons

In cities where elevated street rail ways are either already in operation or to be built, if the smoke, heat and gin ders of the steam engine could be done away by using an electric motor instead perhaps the greatest nuisance of street cars on stilts above the houses would be abated 1t is claimed that it can be done. and proposition to this effect ls under consideration for one of the New York city elevated lines.

How n Prisoner Escaped.

If we will only rightly use little things it is surprising how much may some times be done with them. A vizier, hay ing offended his royal master. was con delnned to lifelong Imprisonment in a high tower, and every night his wife used to come and weep at it's foot. "Go home," said the husband, "and find C black beetle, and then bring bit of butter and three strings-one of fine silk one of stout twine, another Of whipcord and a strong rope.
 When she came provided with every thing he told her to put a.torch of but ter on the beetles head, tie the silk thread around him and place him on the wall of the tower. Deceived by the smell of butter, which he supposed was above him, the insect continued to as cend till he reached the top, and thus the vizier secured the silk thread. By it he pulled up the twine. then the whip cord, and then strong rope, by which he finally escaped. ed.-Detroit Free Press

Brutality to Live Stock

By the efforts of the American agri. cultural department, aided grandly by the public press of the country the cruelty practiced toward live cattle on shipboard has been abated so that deaths ofhapless beeves at sea have been reduced from l6 per cent. to l per cent. of the whole number of those sent across the water Thus s3, ,i50, 900 are saved yearly to beef animal shippers and insurance companies. American newspapers may take due credit to themselves for this happy result But there is one class of individuals still that laughs American journals to scorn and defies American public opinion. These are the British captains of the live stock steamers A British ship captain, even of a crack passenger steamer, is not noted for his mercifulness and kindness of heart and when it comes to dumb brutcs the under crust of brutality in the British nature crops up visibly and recklessly
 For some reason ship captains seem singularly lacking in human feeling al times. A man who would accept a passengers ticket and then deliberate ly carry him ashore, keep his ticKet and sail away without him leaving him penniless in strange city because the man had consumption. would ap- parently be guilty of any other brutst. ity.

Nobody is talking about hIm ex. cept when once in awhile somebody calls attention to his successful fraud in palming himself of as the discoverer of this country. But there is one class of people who ought to set up monument to him, and the largest one that money will buy, and that is the newspaper re- porters.

Hydrophobia and the Dog Catohers.


 A great deal of rot about hydrophobia is being printed in the newspapers just now. It is done, we suppose, in order not so much to scare people into having their pet dogs licensed and muzzled as to give the dog catchers the sort of moral support they certainly need in the pursuit of their infamous business. So yarns about mad dogs and their depre- dations are invented and published, . great many sensitive people are terror ized and the dog catcher drives a profit able trade. There is no truth in these blood curdling tales. There has not been case of hydrophobia in Chicago this year. and it is a question whether there actually ever has been any.--Chi- cago News.
