ELoPED WITH A CIRCUS GIRL.


There Is always fascination for the
ordinary mortal about tho people who
wear the spanRles In the sawdust
arena. In "Eloped with Circus Girl, Z"
which will be seen at the Academy Of
Music tomorrow night, Newton Beers
has given us further insight to the
lives of the interesting circus people.
In truth, In this comedy drama we see
hardly anybody but circus people-
gymnasts and clowns, equlllbrlsts
aerlalists, riders and ringmasters-
and we see them all "at home" which
means, Of course. In their everyday
life. There is hardly limit to the
fun.making which follows naturally
an interesting story skillfully told.
Nothing is wanting. even to the circus
parade. which Is placed on the stage
by panoramic arrangement said to
be strikingly real and lifeliko. The
ID thorou ghlv capable one,
and Is headed by Mr.. Beers, who Is
ravornbly remembered.
'Eloped with n Circus Girl" Is the
Columbian Day attraction at tho Acade-
my OF Music.

CLASSIFICATION OF SOILS.

l. Sandy soil; snch as has at least Is per
cent of sand The quantity of sand may be
determined with considerable accuracy by
very simple means. Dry and weigh a pound
of soil and put it into a vessel which will
hold a gallon or two or water. Pour clean
water over it and stir it up thoroughly
then pour the water gradually off. The sand
will sink on account of It's weight. BY repeat
ing the washing with portions Of clear water,
until the water passes off clear the sand alone
will be left and may be dried and weighed,
and the quantity Of sand in a pound Of soil
determined.
2. A sandy loan is a soil which contains
so TO rs per cent. of sand, which may be Sc
parsted and determined rs above.
8. A clay loan has % to 90 per cent. OF
sand, and the remainder chiefly clay.
f.. A clay soil has less than % per cent.
of sand, tue remainder chiefly clay. TIL
dark red clay soils have a large per cent. OF
OXIDE of iron.
s. Any soil containing 10 per cent. OF
lime or more may be considered a limy or
calcareous soil, whether the remainder be
clay or sand or both. To determine the
amount of carbonate of lime in the soil, heat
two ounces of we'll dried soil on q piece Of
sheet iron or on an iron ladle till the vegetd
bic matter is burnt out. Then pour over it
a pint Of water and add a fluid ounce Of muria
tic acid. The acid will dissolve the lime,
while it will diesc!ve very little else from
the mass. Wash the earth with clear water
several times, take the remainder dry and
weigh it, and the loss will be carbonate Of
lime. This is but a rude experiment, but near
enough for practical purposes.
6. Apeaty soil is one which contains 20
per cent. of dark decayed vegetable matter.
Such soils are common in low, swampy pla-
ces. The quantity of peat may be determin-
ed by burning out the vegetable matter and
ascertaining the loss Of weight.-Eorida Far

the two thousand Of James earns ten dollars
amonth for him, and is better than a good ap-
prentice because he pays the fund no wages
and it costs nothing for board. The reason
why they are now SO wide apart is that tho
extra hours of James have yielded fifteen hun
dred dollars principal in the ten years, and
FIVE hundred dollars in interest. John has
nothing because the expense Of living of each
and support of The families has amounted to
four hundred and fifty dollars for each. In
ten years more James will have interest mo-
ney sufficient to meet the family expense of
four hundred and fifty dollars, and John will
be with his nose still on the grindstone."
Though aptly applied to q different subject
no more forcible illustration could be made Of
the wisdom of small savings of money by
wage earners. Change the illustration ~ little
and suppose that each earns six huSdred dol
lars q year. Let James save fifty cents a day
and let John spend all his earnings. In
twenty years the result will be the same,
The accumulated savings Of James will then
bring in an income that will support him and
his family. In clpe of sickness, inability to
continue work. or death, his family will not be
without means Of support. With John the
case is entirely different. If disabled for work
at any time, he Immediately becomes depen-
dent on the labor of others. 1t is right to
be not ouer anxious for the morrow, but be
that taketh thought to provide for the future

Editor Louisiana Planter: The market
closed last week with quotations at acc. for
SO degrees muscovados, 81 6. for SO degrees
centrifugals and 4 $50. net cash for standard
grsnulated. While there have been no trans
actions at above these prices, yet for the past
few days it has been impossible to make pur-
chases at these prices for raw sugars. Several
things have occurred during the week to make
holders DESTROYS Of obtaining an advance be-
fore parting with any more sugar. One sps-
cial reason for the frmness is in the fact that,
following the ending Of the Cuban crop, with,
say, 5000 0 to 925,OOO tons, there has been
q serious food in Cuba which caused the ware
houses at MatanEas to be under water, on last
Thursday, to the extent OF two or three tiers
of sugar.

In an article OF, the eight hour question in
the Popular Science Monthly appears the fol-
lowing:
"Let two men start together in life as shoe
makers, with q view to do their best in get
ting on in the world, as Henry Wilson did
sixty years ago. They Are equal in skill and
endurance and can work twelve hours q day
at a fair stroke without impairing health.
Working by the piece they find they can earn
sixteen aud two third cents an hour or at the
rate of two dollars a day. There is no diff
ference between them in purpose, and only
the small difference in the method in get
ting on. that James thinks he will sooner get
in comfortable circumstances by working
twelve hours 8 day and John imagines that
nine hours will answer the purpose just as
we'll. At the end of the year of three hun
dred days they find that James had earned
six hundred dollars and John but four hun
dred and fifty dollars. They keep on at this
rate ten years. and James had laid by two
thousand dollars and John nothing. Now

A little news, but not much. his come
from Uganda. On Monday night, in reply to
8 rather sharp speech from lord Herries, WHO
wished to know whether the Government
would send out a special commissioners oharg-
ed to enquire lnto tho "atrocitlas' alleged to
hav been pelpetratel there, Lord Salisbury
stated that information had been received
from Zanzibar condensing letters from Cap
tain Williams, who wrote from a place near
the southern end Of Lake Victoria on March
31st. he reports that the fighting is over,
that Mw3nga was expected to come to terms,
aud that nineteen French mission lries were
safe in the Bukoba district. This is so far salts
factory, and Lord Salisbury proceeded to say
that he deeply regretted to hear of the suffer
ings Of the Catholic missionaries. and that
while he did not believe their charges against
Captain Lugard, whose report breathed a
spirit of loyal impartiality, the Government
would make every inquiry, and would call
any officers who deserved censure- vigorously
to account. Lord Salisbury further confirmed
the rumour that the British East Africa Com
pany intend to abandon Uganda. We have
discussed that subject elsewhere, but may
ask here why, if the Government intends to
keep Uganda, it should not send a successor
to Captail Lugard, and keep the Egyptians
soldiers. Spec tatOr, June 18.

lecture at the Royal Institution a few days

far as chemists canliudge, there is probably no
oxygen in the sun, the oxygen of the earth's
atmosphere accounting for ell the oxygen

point of liquid air is-192o Centigrade or

Assembly Committee on Streets
Holds Its Final Meeting.
The committee on streets OF the as
sembly held its final meeting in the city
hall last evening. There was remark
ably little to do, and this fact voices the
claim that the present organization will
have cleaned up all matters of legisla-
ton before the inauguration OF Col.
Wright and his Republican friends.
The committee considered the action
of the board OF aldermen in appointing
certain custodianS for service in the
public parks, at the instance of the park
commission. 1t will be remembered
that Commissioner Petsch had eight
men on the list who were not acceptable
to the aldermen, and who were. cOnse-
quently, eliminated. The assembly
committee will recommend Monday
evening to concur i'll the course of the
board of aldermen.
Aid Sanborn's resolution, introduced
in the council long time ago, came up
for consideration. 1t prohibits the re-
moval of any street lamps from the
Fifth and Seventh wards to the Eighth,
and the committee will recommend its
passage.
