TREATING SEED WHEAT TO PREVENT SMUT

For each ten bushels OF wheat take
one pound bluestone and dissolve it
in about three gallons of water. 1t
dissolyes best in boiling water. Heat
one gallon, which will dissolve il, then
add the other two. Now spread on
barn floor or wagon box ten bushels
of wheat, take an old broom and
Rprinkle and turn until all the grain is
wet. Leave in a pile over night for

acre, as it will not run quite SO freely

The Bayarian minister at Berno is
likely to feel good deal of natural
resentment against the Swiss police
force for some little time to come. he
went to Winterthur, the Swiss Bisley,
where the National rifle festival was be-
ing held, and was enjoying himself in u
quietly Teutonic fashion when sud
denly he was seized by detectives and
hauled off to the nearest lookup. His
demand for an explanation was met
by the confident assertion that he was
no other than a notorious criminal,
who mad been wanted" for many
months. The detectives were so suro
they had the right man that it was not
until high Government official had
identified the unfortunate diplomat
that they consented to his release.
They had a portrait of the malefaotor
which closely resembled the features

The empress was present, graceful
and beautiful; the emperor at her
side, wrapped in his favorite air OF
gloomy abstraction, which, like Lord
Burleigh's celebrated nod, was sup
posed to mean so much, yet which,
viewed by the impartial light of sub
sequent veracious history, seems TO
have signihed SO little. Several OIL
GERS in glittering uniforms were in at
tendance, sparkling with decorations
showercd upon them by n grateful
sovereign; and among these gallant
warriors, conspicuous by reason OF
his attire, was solitary, humble,
blacll-coated civilian, in ordinary
evening dress, with the inevitable
speck OF red at his button-hole.
In box almost Immediately op-
posite that occupied by their imperial
majesties was young and exceedingly
handsome Russian lady, Countess
Iyauon, concerning whose manifold
graces and destinations the great world
OF Paris elected to interest itself con ..
siderably at this period.
The beauty and wit Of this fair
northern enchantress were the theme
OF every masculine tongue, and her
magnificent diamonds the envy and
admiration Of all feminine beholders.
The countess was accompanied by her
husband, man of distinguished ap-
pearance.
The curtain fell after the first act.
The emperor and empress Withdrew
during the entr'acte. Many humber
mortals followed their example :;
among them Count Ivnnolf, apparently
in nowise disturbed by the fact that
the golden youth in the stalls were
bringing small battery of opera
glasses to bear upon the dazzling
charms OF his beautiful wife.
The countess leaned back in her
luxurious fauteuil, tanning herself,
serenely Indifferent to the interest she
was exciting. In the dim light of her
curtain-shNdod box, the glitter of her
splendid diamonds seemed to form q
sort of luminous halo round her grace
ful head; n myriad starry brilliants
cleaned among the masses Of her
gold-brown hair; and two priceless
stones flashed and twinkled like twin
planets in her little sholl-tinted cars.
The count had been gone but few
minutes, when there was a gentle
knock at the door; and, in answer to
the countess's ''Entrc2," the ouvreuse
appeared, and said deterentinlly:
"Pardon, Nine. la Comtesso; n
gentleman charged with II message
from her majesty the empress waits in
the corridor, and desires to know il

ceive him"
"Cortainlyl Enter, beg of you,

she recognized the distiuguished-look.
ing civilian she had already noticed il
close proximity to the emperor in the
imperial box.
The visitor advanced few steps
and, still standing in deep shadow
said, with grave dignity:

doned, ] am desired by her majesty
to ask favor of Nine. Ia Comtessc
and, at the same time, to beg that she

THE LOST EARRINGS.

I was IN the palmiest
days of the Second
Empire. 1t was an

assembled at the
Theatre Francais to

painter who knew poverty in all its phases,
but was human in all of his attributes,
gave the people who went to the play the
best acting of the week.
John Drew and Miss Maud Adams at
the Baldwin made the most of Henry Guy
Carletons American comedy, THAT I'm
prudent Young Couple" There are
delightful touches of fun rather than
humor in the play. The repartees, the
paraphrase of maxims, the quick rejoind-
ers, alive with wit and audacity, won the
favor of listeners. The playgoers are
almost unanimous in the verdict that the
play has merit and style in it, that it will
go in New York or any other place where
a good thing ought to be appreciated.
Some of the bright sayings are not original
with the author, who has borrowed I'M
copyrighted Jokes. The unconscious
humor of Senator William M. Evarts' little
girl, who wrote pathetically. from the
White Mountains for her father to leave
Washington and come up there as the
donkey was lonely, finds repetition in the
allusion tdthe dogs companionship. These
little hits make rather than mar the piece.

SO free of indelicate illusions, yelled or

an artist. An actor who can enlist the

Maud Adams is another.

The Baldwin Theater.

When Mr.. John Drew made his first ap-
pearance as a star actor in this City last
year the theater-goers talked of nothing
else but John Drew and 1.-THE Butterflies, u
his first play seen here. In spite of the
big success of this play financially and ar
tistically it was withdrawn at the end of
the first week, when it certainly could have
run seven days longer, and 1.-THE Masked
Ball" substituted. This comedy, like its
predecessor, won the hearts of the play
loving public, and in the midst of its great
bid for popularity it was Withdrawn and
christopher Jr." was produced. 1t was
not apparent at that time why Manager
Charles Frohman took plays from the
boards that were doing an immense bust
ness and experimental with new ones, but
1t is clear now why this policy was pur
sued. Mr.. Frohman wished to keep those
plays before the minds of the people in
such manner that their revivals would
appear more like new plays than old
friends, and the third week of Mr.. John
Drew at the Baldwin Theater will be cee-
brated by another production of 1.-THE
Masked BALI and 1.-THE Butterflies" 1.-THE
Masked Ball'' was taken from the original
of Bison and Care, and 1t has all the
brilliancy of the French school and lost
nothing by being Americanized. The story
is based on the visit DR.. Paul Blondet makes
upon u NOuHS WOIlldu Hdill6Q DuLduHc III
behalf of his friend to ascertain whether
the young woman would make suitable
wife for the friend, Martinez, who has
been called away to China. DR.. Blondet is
so impressed with the young woman that
he forgets his friend and falls in love and
he and Suzanne are married. In the next
act Martinez returns, and in order to pro-
tect himself, Blondet explains what hor
rible creature Suzanne is, that she has
craving for intoXicants, that her mother
and father were drunkards, and tells other
falsehoods. At that moment Suzanne APP
pears in the house and the fun begins.
Maud Adams as Suzanne made the success
of her life ana her mimic tipsy scene made
her famous. Mr.. Drew plays DR.. Blondet
with more than his usual sprightliness,
and his gestures, like thorough French
man, give an expression and peculiar en-
phasis to words that would be tame with
out the movement The play will be cast
with the originals. 1.-The Masked Ball"
will be presented on Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday evenings and at the matinee
on Saturday.
On Thursday night Mr.. Drew and his
company will present 1.-The Butterflies" 1t
is photograph of modern society, show
ing money as the prevailing power. 1t is a
comedy in three acts written expressly for
Mr.. Drew by Henry Guy Carleton. The
chief butterfly is a dashing young fellow
running through fortune, whose love for
young girl carries him through vicissi-
tudes that call for wide range of acting,

The Orpheu,n.

Notwithstanding the difficulty attending
the booking of Eastern and European ar
fists at this season of the year, the man
ayers of the Orpheum have succeeded in

ST. Petersburg. Russia, while others are

The Fabianu Quartet, Moreland, Thomp-
son and Bush, Wright and O. Brien, Hugh
Emmett, Fialkowsky and others are down

sufficient to please every taste. The
Fabianus are Russian singers and
dancers; Moreland, Thompson and Bush
are trio with fine voices and an interest
ing and original speciality; Wright and
O'Brien will appear in eccentric comedy
and AS mimics; Emmett is reputedly a
clever ventriloquist, and Fialkowsky imi-
tates the voices of animals, from the roar
of the lion to the carol of lark. The
Martinettis and Johnnie Carroll, who were
so'warmly received on their temperance
last Monday, have been held over for one
more week, after which they will leave for
the East.
