some OF the best local talent whose work

The role of Elly O'Connor, the Colleen

home in the part OF Anne Chute. Miss
Mary Brown was model Mrs. Cregan
and Sheelah was acted to perfection by
Miss Katie Doran. VIM. Fl. Welsh as
Myles ma Coppaleen, was favorite with
the audience, and James Goodman was
his old time self in acting out the part OF
Danny Mann, the hunchback. Francis

Cregan, showed himself capable of as

Why Young Men Are Afraid.

In New York City, where the standard
Of salaries is as high perhaps as in any
American city, writes Edward w. Box in
the April Ladies' Home Journal, it was
recently shown that of the young men in
good commercial positions seventy per
cent earned $4,000 per year; and only
eight per cent exceeded $500 per year.
Upon these incomes all the home COM
forts of married life are possible, but
only by good management. Girls with
frivolous ideas Of life make failures of
such homes, but the earnest girl can
make happy herself, her husband and
her children. Into these homes our girls
are daily going as wives, and it is appar-
emit that young mon must be. careful in
their choice. The young men whom our
young women meet in the incest homes
of our largest cities, are those who are
earning the incomes referred to above.
Large revenues are few, and if by a "de-
sirable'' marriage is only meant tho alli-
ance to young men of dazzling salaries,
just about one girl in every thousand
will make ''desirable' match. Facts
such as these must be taken into con-
sideration by the girl of to-day, and when
they are, it will be more clearly under
stood why young mon are apt to be
frightened from, rather than attracted
to, the girl whose chief idea of popularity
is to be 'tsmart" in hef chat and careless
in her manner 81 5a

It will be remembered that one Benia-
min Butterworth, citizen of Ohio, went
to Europe some time since in rep
resentative capacity to solicit aid for and
interest in the Columbian exposition as
Chicago. 1t will also be remembered
that it was he who little later on in
suited the Catholic people Of the world
by his coarse and brutal assaults upon
their co-religionists in Italy. His scuril
GUS speech referring to the present Pope
as the "weak old man, whose power is
fest waning" was given in these colamns
at the time, and now it is ascertained
that Butterworth contemplates resigning
from the position toawhich he was ap-
pointed only to dishonor. From the
manner in which the weak old man,
has been importuned to give. the exposi-
ton his official sanction by men more
wise and tolerant than Butterworth,

Bread Made of Peanuts.

The imperial German health authori-
ties have been engaged in experiments,
the object of which was to ascertain
whether a healthful bread could be made
of a mixture of rye -four and peanuts.
Incidentally it was discovered that the
refuse left after the oil has been ex-
tracted from peanuts contains 30 per
cent. of albuminous matter. Such being
the case, bread made with an admixture
of peanuts or peanut refuse would GER
tainly be highly nutritious, inasmuch as
the nutritive element of any kind of
bread is mainly albuminous.
Wheat and rye fours have only about
II or 10 per cent. of albuminous matter
in them. When oil has been extracted
by pressure or otherwise from vegeta-
BILE substance, the residue is called soil
cake" All oilcakes are largely album
nous. Flaxseed oilcake contains more
than 40 per cent. of such elements, and
the oilcake of cotton seed is about the
same. It is generally supposed that pea
nuts are very indigestible. Another
question involved is whether they could
be grown more cheaply than wheat,
which would seem to be very doubtful.
Perhaps, however, peanut bread is to
be looked forward to as luxury of the
future. -Wa shington Star.

Nutcrack Night.

All Hallow Even, or Halloween, the
evening before All Saints Day, the LIST
of November, has yet another title in the
north of Overwhelmingly. Nutcrack
Night, the derivation of which is OBJ
vious enough. Impartially weighed
against the others, it is perhaps the very
best time of the whole year for discov-
ering just what sort of husband or wife
one is to be blessed withal.
Of old time, to go back to the usual
source of such things, the Romans had
feast Of Pomona at this time, and it
was then that the stores laid up in the
summer for use in the winter were
opened. The appropriateness of the use
of nuts and apples at this time thus be
comes apparent. But when festival
fourishing in the British isles has fires
connected with it, look sharp for a
Druidical origin and it will not usually
be necessary to look far. Now Hallow-
cen has fires connected with it and a
Druidical connection, if not actual orr
gin, seems highly probable. New York
