"Crucl London" Tonight.


The new Cordray company will intro
duce themselves tonight in the entertain
ing drama, "Cruel London" There is
always more or less interest taken in first
appearances, and the new faces at Cor
dray's popular resort will be looked upon
with considerable curiosity. The ability
Of the performers will be measured in
great part by the first nights work, and
there is no fear of the result, as all are
prominent in their profession, having had
the valuable education derived from long
experience and high class association.
"Cruel London" is a new piece to Seattle
theater goers, and its production is
awaited with no little expectation. The
auditorium will be opened with a talented
list of speciality performers, and expense
has been overlooked in arranging for a
strong bill. The auditorium performance
will begin at 1880 this evening, and the
theater will open at the usual hour, $50.

Carbon exists in cast iron as com.
bined carbon and graphite carbon. In
tho molten state the metal is supposed
to contain carbon as combined carbon or
carbide OF iron. Tho strength of iron
low in phosphorus and sulphur depends
upon tho proper proportion Of combined
carbon and graphite carbon.
Combined carbon in cast iron in
crea5es its hardness and brittleness.
BY adding the figures in tho abovs
table appearing in tho column Of cast

and graphite carbon, it will appear
thus; 296 plus 7l0 equals 4.O06 por

An Electric Light Plant for

The organization of an Electric Light
Company under the charter recently
granted the Elkton Electric Light aud
Power Company, was not effected on
Thursday night, as expected, owing to
the unavoidable absence of several inter-
ested in the movement. A meeting will
be held on Monday, 70: the formation of
the company.
From the success met with in the can.
vass of the town for subscribers to the
lights, the company is much encouraged,
and it is reasonably certain that a plant
will bs established here during the sum-
mer. The company is an entirely home
one, and which already has sufficient
capital for the placing of the plant.
This is an enterprise that should re-
ceive the generous support of the citizens
of Elkton, for in its furtherance we are
afforded system adopted by nearly
every modern city aud town. For many
years have the disadvantages of our
present system been manifest, not only
in our street lighting, but also IN the
illum nation of various buildings. The
progress and advancement of Elkton
within the last decade, demand and
necessitate modern conveniences.
A public spirit of improvement is now
manifest here, aud of late many strides
to the front have been taken, which will
place Elkton among the wide awake
towns of the day.
