That there arc 5000 theatres in
America, and that 1,500, 900 people at !.
tend them each week day night, spend
Ing $40, 900. 600 year on theatre going,
are the surprising facts with which Mr..
Franklin Fyles, the dramatic editor of
the New York Sun, will open an i'm
portant series in the next issue CT The
Ladies' Home journal. The series will
be called "The Theatre and Its Peo-
ple," and will run through seven num-
beers of the magazine, lavishly illustrated
with pictures made by IL different
artists. The articles will treat OF every
phase of the theatre, the play and the
actor, from the inside, and will tell how
a theatre is managed the actual money
which plays have made; how an actor
is trained and what the actors are
actually paid; how a play is written
and what the authors receives: how a
play is rehearsed; the first night of a
play; how the actresses make up,i
and what they use; and in a minute
way the two last articles will show
what goes on behind the scenes on the
stage during a performance. 1t is 8
curious fact that this will be the first
time that the theatre and the actol
have ever been exhaustively treated il
magazine. and that there is no bool
on the subject in existence.

Henry and Esterhazy we're accomplices;
otherwise, Henry would have sup
pressed the bordereau; but, Henry
might have given information to Ester
hazy, believing him to be man Of
honor, and, when he discovered, in
1896, that he had put his hand in
that of traitor, he committed forgery,
upon which counsel would not dwell,
for the offender had paid for it with
his life. Treating the argument of
the general staff that Esterhazy was
only man of straw, counsel asked:
IF this were SO, why did Esterhazy
wish to commit suicide when Matthew
Dreyfus denounced him?n
THE CROWDS INCREASING.
As the morning passed, the crowds In
the streets materially increased, the
majority being well.dressed men and
women, including number of Ameri-

other neighboring watering places.

seemed to be going about their BUSH

who appeared on every side of the
square. The front OF the telegraph
office was held by a detachment OF
dragons, while other quiet streets
were enliyened from time to time by
troops OF dragons marching through,
with their shining helmets and long
horse-hair plumes trailing behind. When
the court reached its intermission,
there was the usual rush to the res
taurants, where the case was again dis
cussed in all its aspects.

Fighting an Annoying Practice.

The Baltimore & Ohio railroad is
trying to lessen a practice which is
very annoying and expensive to the
company and to its eninloyes. This
practice is the systematic evasion of
the Maryland law exempting from at
tachment property and wages of a
debtor to the amount of Sl00. a very
profitable business has been done in
attaching in West Virginia for Mary
land creditors the wages of some of the
thousands of employees Of the Baltimore
& Ohio railroad. AS the railroad
passes through West Virginia, the
wages of every one OF its employees is
subject to attachment for debt under
the laws of that State, although the
debtor may never have been in West
Virginia. All that is necessary is for
the Maryland creditor to assign his
claim to citizen of West Virginia,
who attaches the debtor's wages before
o West Virginia magistrate. The at
railroad company's agent at the place
where issued, and is paid by the com
pany out of the debtor's wages, with
all tho costs.

The Great Wallace Shows will ex-
hibit in Wilmington on Friday, Sep
TENDER 18th, and of it the Pittsburg,.
Pa. Commercial Gazette has the fol-
lowing to say: "The Great Wallace
Shows arrived in the city ut IL. 10 a.
M. yesterday in three sections. A few
hours later the immense show was
landed inside the exposition park, and
long before nightfall the many acres Of
canvass were stretched and the APP
paratus placed for the performance.
Wallace's show has many strong at
fractions this year which are not in
troduced in the other circuses. The
performances in the big tent brings
before the public the Nelson family,
acrobats of international fame. The
nine members of the family are known
to the pittsburg public, their clever
work having been appreciated here
many times. The Angelo family do the
flying trapeze act. and the Stirks,
French trick cyclists, perform. The
Petits, in their aerial bar comedy
act, are one of the important features
of the show, and the Garnd Ballet was
magnificent spectacle. Clowns, male
and female, and all the accompaniment
of q first-class circus performance are
given to the big audiences which were
present, who were greatly surprised
that this show, on its first visit here,
eclipsed in every respect any big show
that had ever visited Pittsburg, anc
we have had them all.
