ELECTRIC RAILWAY NOTES.

When the Southeast Kansas Elec-
trio Railway is built from Baxter
Springs to the mining towns east of
us, a produce aud milk train will be
one of the features. This will prove
of vast benefit to the farmers living
adjacent TO Baxter Springs. They
will not necessarily have to accom-
pany their daily shipments, but can
consign them to somebody in that
business in Galena or Empire City.
-
There is quite a demand for resi.
dence property in Baxter Springs
since electric railway connection
with Galena is assured.
80
The promoters of the electric line
are receiving dozens of inquiries
about the enterprise.
When the electric line is built old
Baxter is going TO boom. Remem-
ber thie.
Every mechanic in town is clam
oring for the electric line. They
well know that oceans of work in
the way of new residences and i'm
provements will follow the build
ing of the road.

how the Scene Was Once Lighted.

1t must have often struck people,
when reading of the old performances
i'll the last century, how it was that the
lighting was contrivcd. The power Of
oil lamps was limited enough. Theaters
like Drury Lane and Covcnt Garden
were of enormous size. There were no
footlights, at least until about the mid
die of the last century, and they were
the humble Floats" dim enough. Yet
there was ample light to observe ex-
preston and play Of features, so neces-
sary in interpreting tho fine old come
dies of character. Nowadays the stage
is Il blaze. 1t is literally hathcd and
suffused in light. There are no shad-
ows, and yet it might lie said tho
amount of necessary light is no more
than there used to be and is not nearly
as satisfactory. How was it then?
In the thcaters Of Ga1ricl1 and earlier
days tho stage was really lit by four
great chandeliers, which hung directly
over the heads of the actors from tho
arch Of tho proscenium and just outside
the curtain. When tho play was over,
these were. lowered slowly, a signal for
the audience. to depart. These chande-
liers furnished a goodly amount Of light
Oh a circular o IL Immediately below
them. Tho actors faces and figures
were lit in the natural way, as the sun
would light them, but tho rest Of tho
stage was comparatively dark or
gloomy.-Gentleman's Magazine.
