new nautical opcretta Nsiicy- Lee by
the DIgby bell Opera CouipaHy. 1heOrgaD-
ization numbers sixty people, and ii is
said to be the best that the popular Coul-
ediau has ever had. Among the principals
are Laura Joyce Bell, with whom tie The

There are three acts in Nancy Lee the
events of which are supposed To take place
in Portsmouth harbor, and on board the
ulan-of-wa Kankakee. Both the Army ami
Navy are satirized in the librctto, which
bristlcs with wit. Digby Bells character
OF Gabriel Swift is entirely different from
anything he has ever played, and shows
his great versatility. Swift, the pro-
yost marshal. was taken from life, one
that the author claims is stiil living and re-
members well.

He was in a certain district out west
known to have been a horse Doctor school-
master a conspicuous figure in every poll

thing you saw fit To call him. He had been
everything within the limit of the shyster
professionalism When war was declared
he was by some manner of means, ap-
pointed provost martial of the district
which gave him supreme power He could
order a citizen shot on the thinnest nreteNt,
and could even exercise his authority on
high official.
Thus it can easily be seen where the
author of Nancy Lee" has taken advan-
tage of the opportunities to create langh-
ter and merriment. For Instance. in the
blending OF his subjects he brings Gabriel
on board a United States man-of-war TO
intercede for his nephew's release, who is
held a prisoner Of war, and, assuming his
provost martial supremacy, threatens
sailor with death who has paid no heed TO
his presence, whereupon the Yankee tar

be all right on dry land, but in the navy
they are entirely out Of 1t.

Manager Kernan's attractions for next

has probably no vaudevileScompany ever
been gathered together with the care and
discrimination which has been exercised in
Gus Hilfs Novelties. There have been
great many attempts to put up an all star
bill, but there have been more, failures than
successes.
The present company is an exception in
this respect. Every member of the coin
pany is finished artist, and high salaries
have not stood in the way of securing the
best available talent in the profession.
The bright particular star is Mile. Eugene
Petresou, who created a sensation in
Europe, and who is undoubtedly the high
est salaried performer on the stage to-day.
She is the girl who has been literally brought
up on her hands. 1t is the most natural
thing in the world for her to have her feet
up in the air. As hand balancer, no one
ever attempted to initiate her. The other
members of the company are:
Lew Hawkins, the Chesterfield of mimick-
ing; Gardner Troupe, the Kings of musical
comedy; Fred. H. Leslie, with his $1O,-
600 challenge troupe of performing dogs;
McCale and Daniels, the Irish tourists;
Gray and Conway, character sketch artists;
Bonnie Lottie, the singing and dancing
sunbeam; Fields and Salina, the eccentric
duo; Gus Hill, champion club swinger Of

American competition in sugar produc-
ton, which il full of interesting statistics
on the subject.
Among other things he shows that tho
crop Of beet-sugar last year exceeded iy
100000 tons the product of the preceding
year. The production of cane sugar has
doubled in the past twenty years, while
that. of beet sugar has treblcd. Careful

The Lincoln Monument is about to fall

which u committee from the Illinois Leg.
~lslature has just found it. The tomb of
the great emancipation is suffering from

is a widespread demand that the State of
Illinois take charge of the monument, fix

this will be done during the present scs-

probable.
The money with which the Lincoln
Monument was built came from all parts
of the land. Lincoln was scarcely dead
