Alexander Salvini has made his debut

given him new status among the
stars of the period. The event was

of repertoire, but nevertheless the lead
ing dailies of New York city, in nearly
every instance, attached sufficient i'm
portance to the occasion to send special
reviewers to Philadelphia. He held

The effect on his audience is not so
much that they have seen a scholar

noble prince, whose very soul is racked
by three contending emotions-his rev.

the feeling of sympathy for his I'M

Della Fox has been particularly
fortunate and wise in engaging the:
services of jefferson D'Angefis, who,

unquestionably one of the funniest
men on the comic opera stage. His

All accounts of his performance
agree that it is irresistitbly comic and
clever. ~

replete with catchy tunes, pretty
choruses and amusing situat tons,
and the management promises that
it will be handsomely staged. The

will not leave for Minneapolis until
tomorrow, and will remain over and

by this time every one in st. Paul

duced in New York it not only set the
press and critics to thinking, but
the entire public. 1t is a play that
has received the highest recon-

the country, and yet it is not a ser

better part of human nature. The
company should be greeted on it's
farewell performance here by a large

How Minister Jewell Learned ia Make
Russia Leather.
Jewell, like all men brought up to
learn a trade, and who afterward gained
prominence in affairs, made now and
then unconscious revelations of his early
training. During one of the campaigns
in which he was engaged he found him
self at country hotel where the table
was bounteous, but the rooms few and
small. 1t was necessary in order that the
whole party might be housed for each
bed to be occupied by two persons. The
governors roommate was a young poll
tician, who could not hide his surprise
when the governor just before retiring
rolled the sleeves Of his night shirt even
as far up as his shoulders, and then
bathed his arms in cold water.
"You wonder why I do this" said
the governor. well, I couldn't sleep
unless did. When was o youngster
learning the tanners trade, I used to
have my arms in the watts all day long,
and at night my skin would smart as
though had been stung by nettles.
could not bear to have any cloth touch
them. SO got the habit of rolling my
shirt sleeves as far as could, and thus
have slept ever since.
When Jewell was minister to Russia,
he played Yankee trick upon the Rus
slams, the benefits of which we are reap
ing even to this day in this country.
Like every other American tanner, he
had long wanted to know the secret of
the process of manufacturing Russian
leather. He had experimental with q
few dollars himself, only to learn that
the secret was not to be discovered
When at the court of ST. Petersburg,
he professed great interest in Russian
industries and was shown through many
of the manufactures there By and by
there came an opportunity to go through
a factory where Russia leather was man.
ufactured Jewell was all smiles and
courtesies and seemed profoundly inter
ested in those things which really did
not interest him and wholly blind to the
very things he went to that place to
see. But he was not so blind as they
thought When he came out of that fac
tory, he had discovered, as he believed,
the process, and he brought the discoy-
cry back to this country with him, SO

RuMsEYs STEAMBOAT.

Records Which Show That 1t Antedated
FuItons Product by Twenty-Five Years.
Tho records of Jefferson county, W.
Va, prove what is not generally known
that Robert Fulton was not the first
man to build steamboat in this coun-
try. He was anticipated over % years
by James Rumsey Of Charleston, Va,
now West Virginia Rumsey's steam
boat was partly constructed in Frederick
county, Md, In 1885. 1t was fitted up
with machinery partly manufactured at
a furnace called "The Cococtin Fur
mace" owned by johnson Brothers, and
located near tho town of Frederick
The two cylinders, the boiler, pumps,
pipes, ETC., were built in Baltimore
Part OF the work was done at the old
Antietam Iron works. Rumsey's boat
was 80 feet in length, and 1t was pro-
PEELED by an engine which worked a
vertical pump placed In the center of the
vessel The water was drawn in at the
bow and forced out at the stern through
a horizontal pipe. The entire weight of
the machinery was 665 pounds, and
the tonnage Of the vessel was three tons.
The entire machinery, including the
boiler, ETC., took up space of very lit
Ito over feet square,
The first public experiment took place
on the Potomac river on March IA, 1885,
when the boat showed speed of four
miles an hour up stream. Tho records of
Jefferson county also show that George
Washington and Governor Thomas john
son of Maryland were among tho pat
rons of Rumsey, and that the experiment
was made In the interest of the then
proposed Chesapeake and Ohio canal

they are men who have married heiresses
and been accepted as husbands for the
latter on the condition that they should
append the family name of their wives

People in tho other category, who use
the hyphen merely with tho object of
creating tho impression that they are of
more ancient lineage than is really the

He Got the Sugar.

The following anecdote of a tame
monkey, to whom was given a corked
bottle with lump of sugar inside, in
dictates that the animal, though unable
to invent, could initiate A phrenologist
would say that the monkey had "per-
ception, but not "causality." How to
get at the sugar was problem that babe
fair to drive him crazy.
Sometimes in an impulse of disgust
he would throw the bottle out of his
reach and then be distracted until it
was given back to him. At other times
he would sit with countenance Of in
tense detection, contemplating tho bot
tied sugar, and then, as If pulling him
self together for another effort at solu-
ton, would sternly take up the problem
afresh and gaze into the bottle.
He would tilt 1t one way and try to
drink tho sugar out OF the neck, and
then suddenly reversing 1t, try to catch
it rs it fell out at the bottom.
Under tho impression that he could
capture the sugar by surprise, he kept
rasping his teeth against the glass in fu-
tile bites, and warming to the pursuit of
the revolving lump used to tie himself
into regular knots round the bottle.
Fits of the most ludicrous melancholy
would alternate with spasms of delight
as q new idea seemed to suggest itself,
followed by fresh series of expert
ments.
Nothing availed, however, until one
day light was shed upon tho problem
by jar containing bananas falling from
the table with crash and the fruit roll
ing about in all directions. His monkey
ship contemplated the catastrophe and
reasoned upon it.
Lifting the bottle high in his paws, he
brought it down upon the floor with q
tremendous noise, smashing the glass
into fragments, after which he calmly
transferred the sugar to his mouth and
munched it with much satisfaction.
