present were from Norfolk who, with
every one In the house. thoroughly en-
1oyed the artistic performance and

1T was. indeed, Il distinct triumph not
only for Mrs. Shipp, VINO has directed
the opera which has met with such phe-
nomenonal success. but also for those
who participated. The leading part,
Bonnie. the Princess, as taken by Miss
Matte Boswell, was superbly rendered
III every detail Of voice and action Her
work In this character was fully up to
the best professional standard.
Kitty Glover, Captain of the Canoe
Club, and dainty little summer girl, was
delightfully."- represented by Miss Sallie
kindred Williams, whose lovely voice
ana winSome grace won for her the APP
preciative praise OF the most confirmed
critics, and drought her well earned en-
cores. In whisper Words Of Love" and
IN the flirting scene in the second part
she was especially effective. and added
many laurels to her already envia bic re-
putatiOn.

relevant without Introducing Shlimps,

er, so as to reduce to minimum the oper-
ating expenses and permit of some profit
in the face of the gradual decrease in
freight rates caused by the sharp compe-
tition between competing lines. As the
only way of meeting competition railroad
managers have been compelled to cut
down operating expenses, and the best
way of doing that was found to be in
making one train do the same service for
merry requiring two or three trains.
The practical working of this idea IS
well shown in the increased carrying ca
pacity of coal cars within recent years,
the majority of such cars now in use
having carrying capacity of from 1000
to 60,00O pounds as against 10000 pounds,
and even less a few years ago. With the
heavier motive power now in use an or
binary train of coal cars of the present
capacity will carry double and treble thS
amount of coal that a train of a few
years ago could carry, thereby enabling
the companies to do with one train whaI
it formerly required two or three to do,
and effecting saving of one or two train
crews and as many engines, and at tbs
same time reducing proportionately the
wear and tear on the rails.

One of the interesting items of the state
expense charges for July appears in the
current lists of the state school for the
deaf at Farbbault. 1t is an item of S253
for a clock, which is remarkable in more
elements than in that of its expensive
character. 1t has no cuckoo to cry the
hours and tell the time of arriving and
departing trains, like some OF the boosted
timepieces of the Swiss Alps, but this
mechanism is certainly a wonder, for it
is so arranged that 1t calls the pupils at
tention hourly to the school programme
and the calendar, in spite OF the fact th5J
they are all deaf, and the usual alarms do
not affect them in the least.
OF course, ono clock would not be visible
by all the pupils, so there are ten sec
ondary clocks, with tweve-inch dials
which tell the teachers and scholars who
cannot see the main clock what class IN
mathematics is now due to count up frae-
tons on its fingers or when the scholars
in English grammar will write their les
son leaflets. These secondary clocks are
included in the or ginal item of $252, as are
five 5-inch fire gongs the utility Of which
in school for the deaf has aroused the
curiosity of some of the state department.
