manager of the famous Rucabardo
plantation, we visited tobacco patch
which l presume would make the
eyes of Pennsylvania tobacco grower
stand out in amazement. 1t contained
$50 qurades or about 500 American
acres, and it was sight never to be
forgotten to see fifty men at work
side by side in a single field, all
singing This country is very billy
and the hills are cultivated to the
tops. They have no American plows
they use torked stick to plow with
drawn by oxen. The horse is used
exclusively to cultivate the tobacco

one man can do in the States.

the Judge. 30, double T, 1, double

mathematics there, always wrote Nv,

is in Jail on the opp site side of the stage.
A very stormy family soene follows for

with tn e book agent He disowns the
Princess, orders the book agent brought

Matters are now complicated by the ar

Spanish soldier must be her husband and
the latter is brought forth and despite

Such is a brief story of the musical play
which was presented last night under
circumstances that were highly favorable
and before an audience SO large and fash

seritable social function. 1t was lavish
in its applause and nearly everything had
to be- repeated once, twice, thrice and
sometimes more than three times. Mr
