MUSIC AND DRAMA
UNCLE JOSH SPRUCEBY.

Despite the inclement weather, large
and appreciative audience greeted this
company a. tibet opera house last Wednes-
day night. The fact that Uncle JOSH
had paid his respects to our theatre-goers
iast season did not keep them away but
only seemed to have given them a strong
er desire TO see him again
This New England comedy, in which
Uncle Josh is one of the leading charac-
ters is "chock full' of interest, compris-
ing the many incidents that happen to
the 'tiller of the soil' upon his arrival
IN great New York City, all of which are
well played and not overdrawn.
The scenery used by this company, COM
prising the great sawmill scene, was
grand and the scenery itself was certain
ly realistic. The act was rare one to
the audience, and their appreciation of
same was shown by their continued ap-
plause.
Mr.. Robbins, as Luke Fay, wolf in
Sleeps clothing, acquitted himself very
creditably; Hank Mout, the green goods
man, as represented by c. II. Ransom
was, as was his common expression. "out
of sight" May Anderson, as Nancy. the
educated country girl only acted as her
part dictated, and nothing was over
drawn. Grace Beard, as Sallie Spruceby.
was good, and her singing and dancing
elected great applause. Many admiring
glances were bestowed upon her. and her
entrance upon the stage always brought
on more applause. Mat Russell, as Hans
Won Bottlemeyer. captured the audience
with his wit and humor. But, best of all,
was the music, which was highly enioyed.
Uncle Josh, you and your company NAV
rest assured that you will always be
greeted by a large audience when you
visit Lagrange.

OLaughlin delighted the audience with

ulations. which was alone worth the

A Case OF Telepathy.
Minneapolis Times .

The general talk about dogs occasioned
by the coming show at st. Paul next
month suggests a remarkable occurrence
in the family of the late actor, William
rerriss, who was stabbed to death at the
entrance of a treater in London wh.re he
was leading star. The evening o: the
tragedy the other members of the family,
consisting of Mrs. Terriss and the two
sons, we're at home. Tho fox terrier
named "Davie," after Mr. Ierris' favorite
part rs Lieutenant David Kingsley in the
'Harbor Lights" was asleep in Mrs. Ter
riss' lap. Suddenly, without warning, the
Jog leaped from Mrs. Terriss' lap and
dashed frantically about the room, yelp-
ing, swapping and showing all the signs
Of paroxysm of mingled rage aud fear.
"Ny brother Will and 1 were playing
chess" said Tom Terriss, dog. when ques-
TONED on the snbject, ''and the dog was
apparently quietly doing on my mothers
lap; and it startled us at considerably as
it bounded up and down the room with
frantic. snaps AMI snarls. My mother was
very much alarmed, and cried out: "What
does he see? What does he sce?" con.
vinced that the dogs anger was directed
at something unseen by Us. My brother
and I soothed her as we'll as we could,
though ourselves considerably puzzled at
the behavior of an ordinarily quiet and
well-conducted pet. The incident occurred
at the very hour of my fathers DEATH,
There has been much dircussion of the
incident. Many attribute it to coinci-
dence. But it is too remarkable for that.
Instances of this kind amcng people
we're formerly accounted for on the theory
of coincidence. But telspathy has furn.
ished scientific aud rational ex planation
and no sduca' ed person ever calls it a CO.
incidence nowadays. There is dual
character in the mind, objective aud sub.
jective. Tho objective relies on the
senses embraces the reasoning faculties.
The bjective has it's manifestations in
intuition and instinct. The theory il
that when two minds are en- rapport, ono
can receive impressions from the other
what the distance between them may lie.
And if he has the power to raise such i'm
presstons above the threshold of the con
sciousness-that is the power of the mind
read-the Impressions can be made i'm
pressions can be made impressions can
be made lmmediately available. So it
probably happened that in his extremity
Mr.. Terriss thought Of his home and his
people and his dog. The dogs subjec-
tive mind got the impression. and made
easier by his being asleep, as sleep and
the hypnotic state are essentially the
same, he doubtless saw the real situation
his master had fallen.

A Dream That Came True.

A Denver, Colorado, dispatch January
29th, says: J. 7. Carey of Rockford, ILL.,,
WAS directed in dream to come to Den
yer and find gold mine. His Slain is a
little outside of Denver, where no sane
tnan would seek for gold, owing to the in
dications nor carrying any evidence. Yet
he got pay ore, and now is on the high
way to place IA a bonanza king. with
o. 9 that runs all the way from hundred
dollars up. His story Is told in the fol.
lowing language:
"Eleven years ago dreamed again the
strange dream of old Aunt Sally and the
gold mine Ill the far West. The spirit
the same as before. the hand pointed to
the setting sun, the same words of des-
crip.iou and petition fell on my sleeping
eprs. The spirit vanished. awoke. and
banished the dream from my thoughts.
Then came the third manifestation.
this one three years ago, while I still
dwelt in Rockford. It was identical in
all respects with the first two dreams.
and it impressed me powerfully.
Last June bought railroad ticket
and came straight to Denver. There was

where 1t was, l implicitly believed. Here
old settlers, men thirty five years in Colo
rado, told me was fool to search for
gold, spending my money at the mouth
of the Indian Creek, paid no heed to
them, but within "a hours OF my arrival
in Golden I pushed on, equipped with
the instruments needed in the quest. It
sounds miracalous--or foolish-but
went directly to the spot thrice indicated
by the spirit of the Indian squaw, and
there At thirteen feet struck ore that

ANIMALS CHANGE COLOR.
Some of tho IIeasons For It and Some CT
the Mysteries of It.

Some OF Che heaaons For 1t and Some Ci
the Mysteries Of It.
, Observation and experiment 90 to
show how large an influence fool
has in determining the color OF
animals. Everybody knows how
easily the color of the yellow
canary may be altered to an or
ange red by mixing cayenne pep
per with its food, though it is true
that the color change may be pro
duced only in very young birds
whose feathers are not completely
matured. 1t is also matter of OK
pertinent that all varieties of cana
ries are not equally susceptible to
the influence of the pepper, and it
is very curious fact that if the
pigment that causes the red color of
the pepper be mixed with the food
of the birds, without the other con-
stituents, yellow colored canaries
are not in the slightest degree affect
ed by it, while brown birds or the
brown feathers Of yellow birds be-
come distinctly lighter in hue.
Here is another interesting expert
ment: The large tortoise shell but
terdy normally feeds upon the leaves
of the elm, while the small tortoise
shell is addicted to nettles, but
when some imagoos of the large
tortoise shell were bred from cater
pillars that have been found upon
nettles, they showed wonderful
similarity to the smaller species,
though the color was nearer to that
of the larger. Quite in the samo
line is the observation that the thorn
moth exhibits variations in color
according as the larva is fed upon
oak, hawthorn, lime or lilac. Many
other experiments have shown
similar effect of food in modifying
or completely changing the color of
animals.
Among the changes of color that
are most perplexing, if one would
refer their cause to utility only, is
that of the gull, which is blue and
white, and is therefore generally
allowed to be OF protective value.
But of the first three years of their
lives several common species of gull
have brownish speckled plumage,
which is totally unlike that of the
older birds, on which fact Mr.. Bed
dard remarks, "If one color be ad-
vantageous, the other must be the
reverse, and three years is either a
considerable period or it is not long
enough
Another perplexing part of the
subject is the color Of deep sea ami
mails. 1t is an established fact that
marine animals can and do live at
the enormous depth Of more than
five miles below the surface of the
water. It is also certain that the
sunlight does not penetrate to that
depth, SO that the animals that ex
list there exist in more than mid
night darkness. Yet the fact is that
brilliant colorations are generally
found in them. Of what use can it
bei How can natural selection or
sexual selection have anything to
do with iti 1t is true, indeed, that
there may be phosphorescent light
emitted by the animals themselves,
and of this there are many evidences,
but though the deep. sea fish may
be guided to it's prey by a series of
natural "bullseye" lanterns, the
color of its prey, could have no pro-
tective effect, but exactly the re-
verse.-Our Animal Friends.
