THE MOON BOTHERED JULIET.
a Small Japanese Boy Held 1t and Would

"A Small Japanese Boy Held 1t and Would
Not Go Away.
"WhiIe in Japan we went to Tokyo
to play Romeo and Juliet, >" said Mrs
Potter recently. "We played from
O'Clock in the morning until O'Clock
in the evening, as the manager demand
ed plays that would last all day, and
when I told him that we had none of
sufficient elasticity he replied that when
it was all ended, we would start all over
again. Well, we did. The manager was
impressed with the necessity of having
a moon, and that Juliet, as near as pos
sible, should always be kept in the
moonlight.
'tWell, the balcony scene arrived, and
there was no moon, but in the midst of
Romeo's most passionate wooing, which,
SO far as the light on the stage was con-
cerned, might have taken place at mid
day, the moon suddenly appeared. 1t
was in the form of lantern fixed on a
bamboo pole and was swayed before my
face by little Jap who stood beneath
the balcony in full view of the audience
The audience didn't seem to mind it in
the least, but it made me very nervous,
and every time Romeo would pour forth
his soul would calculate, Take away
that moon. But the boy was mindful
of his instructions, that Juliet was al
ways to be in the moonlight, and dur
ing the rest of the performance every
time I came on the stage I was pursued
by that awful moon. Nothing could in
duce the boy to desist, and SO the moon
held full sway. Rochester Union and

BACON'S MAIDEN SPEECH.
THE SENATOR WAS LISTENED TO
WITH MUCH INTEREST.
senator Bin Tried His Quizzing Game,
But Bacon Gave Him shot for shot
and Soon silenced the New


WASHINGTON, January Ex-senator
Augustus Octavas Bacon delivered his
maiden speech in the senate today, and
he delivered it with much rhetorical
grace and effect. 1t was on the financial
question, and was strong argument
against the bond issue and for the re. es-
Enlistment of silver as money metal.
The Georgia senator was accorded a
splendid hearing. The galleries were
filled and the senators gave him respects
full attention, something unusual when a
new senator makes speech.
When the Georgia senator began to crit
icise the bond issues and declare that the
withdrawal of gold could and should have
been stopped by the redemption of green
backs in silver, Senator Hill attempted
to quiz him. Hill had been lowering
around awaiting an opportunity ia his
new role as the administration spokes-
man to queer the Georgians speech, but
the New Yorker soon found that he had
met match in the New Georgia senator.
Senator Bacon knew his ground and
each time met the New Yorkers's at
tacks and repulsed him, using mere facts
as lis weapons.
Mr.. Hill held there was no money in
the treasury but greenbacks and gold
with which to redeem outstanding green
backs. Then Mr.. Lindsey of Kentucky
arose % ask if there had been any sill
yer in the treasury which could have
been used to redeem greenbecks. Here
Mr.. Stewart of Nevada rushed in to as
sert that there was S50,0O0,000 of silver
bullion in the treasury which should
have been coined and used for the purs
pose. Senator Bacon then answered
that it was the duty of the executive to
discharge the Indebtedness OF The gov
eminent as far as possible without cor
tracing an interest bearing debt, and
added that there was no reason WHY the
president should not haze bought silver
with greenbacks, if necessary. Senator
Teller here interferred to say that there
had been no time when the treasury had
not had silvor to pay for greenbacks.
Senator Bacon added that whatever
might have been true formerly there
was no lack of silver and greenbacks in
the treasury now. There could be no
possible contention of the fact that
S152,000,0O0 of bonds already issued and
the $100,0OO,000 to be issued in the next
few days were for the purpose of main
tanning single gold standard. Tins
would the circulating medium of che
country be greatly contracted when
there was no legal reason for it. Not a
dollar of these bond issues would have
been necessary if the country were on a
bimetallic basis and if silver were paid
out at the option of the government in
stead of gold.
The issue might be clouded and the
people might be deceived, said the sena,
tor, but the truth would ultimately he
known, namely: that in order to main
tain gold standard there was not only
a loss of untold wealth in the parity Of
business, but hundreds of millions were
ADDED to the governments Indebtedness.

The new Hawaiian steamer Aztec is

said somebody who had looked at her
yesterday. Not SO. The Aztec is a
first class passenger and mail steamer
and will make San Francisco in seven

The gross tonnage of the Aztec is

43 feet and depth 29.3. On ner present
trip to Honolulu she brings 1862 tons
of coal This is big cargo and the
vessel sets low in the water. She has
four large matches, two forward and
two aft. After the Rio sailed Thurs.
day afternoon the Aztec came in to the
Pacific Mail wharf and is discharging
her coal there.
The Aztec was built in England. She
was originally the Canterbury. A few
years ago she was purchased in san

route. At that time her name was

Circular Letter No. 1919



by the arrival of the S. S. Rio Jane
iro this morning we are able to give
you the following latest sugar news,
dated up to the 3rd:
CENTRIFUGALS-These have taken
Il further drop to 3A for 96. No doubt
this is caused by the political and
financial situation, under which it is
impossible for any improvement in
trade to occur; you will observe thus
far that the decline has been confined
to spot sugars; holders of these un-
doubtedly are without courage and
think it prudent to let themselves out
before matters become worse. For
tunately the election is but two
months off and we hope for a relief in
the election of Mr.. Mckinley.
Following are the sales reported
since our last: Aug. 20, 2400 bags,
spot, 3 5-1Gc for 96; Sept. 1st, 400 bags
spot. 3l4c for 90.
GRANULATED-The prices are un-
changed. being 4.56c in New York and
45sc in San Francisco.
BEETS have also taken a downward
turn as you will note by the following
quotations: Aug. 20, 9s 2Hd per cwt;
Aug. 81, 9s per cwt.; Sept. l, SIS iOhd

SUGAR STOCK seemA to have taken
exceptions to the downward tendency
and shows it's confidence in the ulti-
mate results of the financial disturb
ance by steadily advancing. We give

Mr.. Hoffman thinks the price too
much for the luxury and will not
order on his own hook. Another party
