Apples Show Up We'll, With Peaches
Not So Good.
Washington, August 15.-The Agri-
cultural Departments August report of
fruit conditions is as follows:
Apples-The general condition advanc-
ed during July from 64.6 to 65.7, a
gratifying indication of sustained crop
prospects. This general average covers
all kinds of apples early and late, in all
sections of the country, commercially
important or unimportant as producers,
and the State percentage must be used
to determine the outlook for particular
commercial supplies.
Peaches-Presentr returns show general
ly reduced condition OF the CONNER.
cial States, the best prospects still are
found in Delaware, Michigan, Ohio and
Maryland, while in New Jersey, Vir-
ginia, Georgia and California, percent
ages indicate less than half crop In
Delaware the early crop was nearly ruin
ed by curoulio and ''yellows,n and fruit
on the trees is BADLY stung there and in
Maryland, though fine product is ex-
pected from the mountain orchards of
the latter State. In Michigan and Ohio
excellent crops are still indicated
Grapes-The condition of grapes is
generally high. Some complaints are
made of rot, due to excessively moist
season, but seemingly not extensive
enough to much affect the general con-
dition.

This Great Show at Academy of Music
Tomorrow Night.
Minstrelsy has seen many changes in
the past decade. Five years ago there
were no less than ten large minstrel or
CARNATIONS in America. To-day there
are but two; yet those two represent
more capital and employ more people
than five of the old time minstrel COM
panies combined. N1ins relsy, like the
circus business, has resolved itself, or
rather increased itself until magnitude
is the maxim. Formerly minstrel
show consisted of singing first part, II
finale, a song and dance by number of
performers, clog dance, II musical act
and burlesque for an after piece. To
day the word 'minstrels'' stands for al
most anything in the amusement line.
\ iirst-class minstrel company of the
present day presents Il performance so
varied that any theatre goer, no matter
how blase, can find something in the Fro
gramme to divert and amuse him. The
AL G. Field Minstrels and Utopia is a
revelation to lovers of minstrelsy. The
curtain rises with gorgeous first part
entitled, 1.-The Court of Momus.n
Menus, the god of fun, reigns supreme
with his satellites, couriers, etc. The
comedians represent modern day visi-
tors to the court of the middle ages:
This gives the comedians great scope
for fun-making.
Then we have Eddie Fox, the Paginni-
nj of the modern minstrel world, and
his solo orchestra. The name of Eddie
Fox is familiar to almost every theatre
goer in, the United States. His imita-
tions and solos on the violin are inimita-

place ON the programme.
Then we have those sterling favorites,

musical comedians. Since the day of

have appeared in the musical line.

GEN. HARRISON FOR SENATOR.
"A Report That the Ex- President Desires
to Re-enter Public Life.


to Re-enter Public Life
EX-President Harrison, it is said, wants
to get back in the United States Senate.
One of his intimate friends recently
told newspaper correspondent about it,
He said:
General Harrison is DESTROYS of re-
turning to public life for several reasons,
which | am at present not able to give to
you. His old place as United States SEN
ator from Indiana would be congenial to
him. There would be no loss of prestige
in going to the Senate after having occu-
pied the office of President. There are
presidents for it. John Quincy Adams,
after he retired as President, went to the
House of Representatives, and continued
member of it until he died Andrew
johnson went to the Senate after he had
retired from the Presidency. James
Monroe was postmaster of New York
after he was President
If it is true that eX-President Harrison
wants to go to the Senate, he will proba-
bly, have bitter opponent in his own
party in the person of Chas. M Fair
banks, who was temporary chairman of
the Republican national convention at'St.
Louis. The place, it is said, was half
promised to Fairbanks last year, and he
made the canvass there to elect the legs la-
ture, part of which would hold over this
year, when the election of Senator is to
take place. Fairbanks will feel sore Mt
any attempt to get the place away from
him now, when he thinks it is almost as
good as his. Fairbanks and Harrison.
however, have been good friends, and it
may be that if Harrison wants to step
into his old shoes, Fairbanks can be in
duced to withdraw

came involved in a quarrel with
a Mexican and was chased away

his friends were standing and

This seemed a signal for a gen,

number of persons were injured.
Frank RObards quite severely.
He was unconscious for about
eight hours, and is still suffering
from concussion of the brain.
Although he is regarded as out
of danger unless some other com
plicatiOn sets in.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1896.

Now that the election returns
from the state are well in hand
it is in order to remark that this
is two times that the Republicans
of the state tried to fuse with the
other fellows and have been left
with the bag to hold. Four years
ago and this year the Light did
not believe that this attempt to
merge the Republican vote of the
state with the vote of another
party would pan out successfully
and the results show that there
is no doubt of the injury that
such attempts work to the Re
publican efforts in the state.
Straight out Republican candi-
dates for congress are left in the
shuttle on account of the attempt
to carry water on both shOul
ders. In this congressional dis
trict the regular Republican can
didate, who, according to the cal
culations at Dallas, should have
received Populist cooperation,
has been placed in peril through
Populist votes. Had the POpu
list votes of this district not gon,
to the Popocratic candidate HI
would not have had 5000 vote
in the district. Will the Republi
cans learn the wisdom of methO,
by experience next time?

The foreign immigration to
this country is on the increase.
This should be stopped. There
are no more places prepared for
labor in this country than there
are laborers to occupy them. The
more than a million and half of
unemployed in this country
should be first set to work, then
it will be in order to open the
gates to more labor from abroad.
Home labor should be given the
preference in the home market,
and it cannot be until the gates
are closed against foreign impor-
tations.
