tomime and speciality. Since last sea-
son the play has been entirely re-
written and in the new shape it con-
tains more interest, humor and proba-
bilities for the disply Of specialties, bal
let's, sumptuous costumes and suburb
scenery. All of the latter have
been supplied in abundance. The
beautiful scenery is rendered prettier
by series of ingenious Transformations.
Symmetrical young women encased in
dazzling armour perform intricate evo-
lutions. In the ballets are given rare
illustrations of the poetry of motion.
The vocal music is made up of solos,
Duets, trios, quartettes and sextettes.
Nearly every scene is a kaleidoscope of
rare beauty, varying from marches to
ballets; from vaudeville to pantomime
tricks. Several features have been
added, including the famous French
Quadrille," by four female eccentric
dancers. Hilda Thomas, the we'll
known protean artistic, and Louise
Royce, late prima donna of the Tar and

A Very Lame Explanation.

New YORK, July 19.-The treasury
policy of paying out gold coin on its
current obligations is for the reason that
it is believed that an infusion of gold
into the clearing house and other pay
ments is likely to have beneficial effect
and lead to restoration of general con-
fidence. incidentally, it has the advant-
age of staving off the necessity for the
issue of gold certificates. About $780,
900 in small notes has been exchanged at
the sub-treasury for gold certificates and
large notes. The small notes are in
tended for shipments to the interior.
