auspiciously The hot weather and other
inconvenience arising from the mercury
procliyity for doing the same thing do not
appear to be much of a drawback from
e financial point of view, when contrasted
with the prevalent desire for amusement,
and to this fact is undoubtedly due the
speedy beginnings. This is, at least, true
of the Columbia. where il was announced
that the production of THAT Man" was
only a supplementary one that would be
followed by the closing Of the house for
another brief period. So successful was
that engagement, however, that Kate
Ciaxton has been booked TO fiji in the
interval with her perennial success, The
Two Orphans which will have its hear
ing tomorrow night. The vaudeville
houses are, of course. still running, and
Kernan's will this week introduce an
other show under the direction of Ed
ward Rush, manager of the Bon Ton
Burlesquers Its title IS to be The
Sporty Widows" and much is expected OF
the presenting company. The one deser-
ton from the ranks viii occur at Glen

gether profitable season, the JaXon opera
Company will close on Tuesday night
1.-THE Chimes of Normandy" will be con-
tinued to the end This does not keep
the number Of theaters open at present
from being unusually large.
The season proper, however, does not
commence until week from tomorrow,
when Manager Rapley's two places OF
amusement, the National and Academy,
throw wide their doors, the first with
Rice's Girl From Paris and the second
with The Electrician" On September -
the Lafayette is TO follow with the last
of the announced openings, Hotel Topsy
Turvey." The Grand will, in all proba-
biIity. be heard of Immediately after.
The week Just gone, while not excep-
tionauy good, has promised much. That
Man" drew very fair audiences 10 the
Columbia, where mirth reigned supreme,
and the Jaxon Opera Company's presen-
tation of THE Chimes of Normany'' ap-
peared TO please rather scant houses at
Glen Echo. Miaco's "City Club" did
not do as much as usual at the Lyceum,
but, nevertheless, managed TO fill the
house comfortably. The fearfully not
weather may be blamed for the cool
state Of affairs in the box Offices.

While, as has already been noted, the
regular season is opening early at pres
ent theater-goers may not find much
pleasure in that fact.
The promises given out for the months
of September, October and even Novem-
ber, are meager and the prospect is that
there will not be many really high-class
combinations seen in the city much be-
fore Christmas. Washington does not

The Great Canals and Their Cost.

The Suez Canal is about 100 miles
in length, and cost one million dollars
per mile for its construction. The
Corinth Canal is four miles in length,
and cost completed, with its ap-
proaches. one million per mile. The
proposed Nicaragua Canal will cost
per mile, with its terminals and ap-
proaches, certainly not less. and pro.
badly more than the sum named. The
canals OF Suez and Corinth are real
maritime canals, built without locks,
upon the sea-level. The one, that of
Corinth, is situated in the temperate
zone. where the rainfall is thirty
seven or forty inches, per annum.
The other, that Of Suez, is located in a
region without rain. Neither of these
is threatened in its course by streams
liable to sudden and perilous floods,
so common in the tropical region OF
Central America. Thess two great
works afford no real parallel to the
Nicaragua project, either as to cost or
feasibility. The one work parallel to
this undertaking Is very near, very
like it, both in place aud circum.
stance; it Is that Of the Panama canal
across the Isthmus OF Darieu. -

are the most wonderful part of the
whole affair. They are really apair of
cedar boxes five feet long, with
fins on the bottom and sides. They
are very light and capable of sustain
ing 140 pounds, but as Oldrieve weighs
only 130 they are as good to him rs a
steamers deck. Into each Of these
wooden shoes the water walkers feet
are thrust deep down and rubber
gaiter-like affair is fastened to his leg,
thus effectually keeping out the water.
Rubber boots reaching to the thigh
are also worn. When thus equipped
Oldrieve is able to walk many miles
and to travel over choppy seas, and
even the heavy swell of the ocean.
His theory of midocean walking is
to slide down the side of big swell
and wait for the next one to lift him
up. In this way he says it really re-
quires less exertion to walk ON water
far out at sea than it does in shell
tered bay. The hardest work of all,
he says,is to go in choppy water,as he
did in the East River at New York.
He thinks he will be able to walk from
800 to 1000 miles of the way across the
Atlantic in period of forty to ninety
days. As the course taken will be
in the path of steamships, he expects
to speak many passing vessels and
send back letters written while walk
ing in midocean to his friends in Bos-
ton.

Spring and summer Millinery.
In Paris flower-trimmed hats and
bonnets are already seen, and it is
predicted that flowers will have n
great season in the spring and sum
mer. Large, fully open roses, made
of both velvet and satin, are already
much in demand, and are shown in
such artificial colors as lavender,
several shades of green, dark blue, all
shades of yellow, beige and castor.
Felt hats and toques are trimmed
with them, and they are arranged in
half coronets or wreaths without fol-
age. A large violet, fanciful in size
and shape, is at present popular in
Paris. The flower is as large as an
overgrown pansy, and two of the
petals are long and pointed and hang
down over the stem. Velvet of all
shades is used in the making, and n
CLEAN of white is seen at the end of
ench petal. 1t is developed in various
shades of yellow, violet and mauve.
