Ed. Ryan, who has achieved motor
iety in police circles by his frequent
and ingenious attempts to obtain
money under false pretenses, was a
participant in a fight on lower Front
street yesterday afternoon that infiict-
ed some severe cuts and bruises on his
physiognomy. He was in a saloon on
Front street, and being very much
under the influence OF liquor imagined
that the proprietor Of the saloon had
robbed him. He became insistent on
the restoration of his property, which
he wrongly supposed had been appro-
priated by the owners of the saloon,
and was finally involved in a fight
with the bartender, Harry Hollis.
Ryan received two cuts, one above and
one under the left eye. The police
took him in charge. but finally released
him. With this exception, no arrests
were made.

The brilliant and versatile Joseph Haworth will appear in Robert of Sicily" Monday evening at Polls. There is no more capable actor on the American stage than Mir Haworth. and it matters not whether he is cast in a ShakeSDearen. romantic or protean role, he is equally effective in his work. In Robert of Sicily he has a romantic play that somewhat resem- bles ''Rosedale," in which he won ever lasting fame, and he brings to the title role all the wonderful genius that has singled him out from among his fel- lows as one of America's greatest ac- tors. On his last appearance here. February p, 1898. he played Lord Macbeth to Modjeska's Lady Mac beth in a way to actually dwarf the star.

The Railroad Gazette gives warn
ing of step backward in transporta-
ton. ga great deal of money has
been wasted by carrying freight and
passengers at Gu unnecessarily high
speed" SO they are to 60 slow. II
may be true that mo single reform
can be adopted in connection with
railroad operations that will yield go
large an increase in net earnings as
the adjustment OF the time of tho
freight trains with reference to the
economical performance of motive
power, but, ii the pace now prevailing
is diminished, it will be something
new in the history OF progress. There
have been signs lately of diminished
speed in Atlantic steamers, but We
predict, all the same, that before an
other decade is over, they will be
travelling nearer thirty knots than
twenty.

If the reforms suggested by tue New
York Baseball Club are carried out,
then the National Leagues season OF
1900 should be red letter one in its
history. One of thase reforms is the
abolition OF the syndicate ownership
of clubs. These syndicates should be
abolished. Then the baseball rowdies
should be suppressed, and competent
men should be engaged to ofFiciate as
umpires. With these reforms estab-
lished the national game will again
resume its sway over the popular al
fections.

Prof. S. A. Knapp, of Louisiana, at
tacied to the department of agricul-
ture, has made report on rice culture
in the United States. He says there is
no sort of difficulty in producing in
these states all the rice that is consum-
ed in the Union, without importing
from any OF the tropical territories OF
the United States. Last year 1876, $780,
72O pounds of domestic rice were mar
kese1. In addition to this, 204, IT,
293 pounds were imported. Louisiana
leads in rice production, although sew
eral other southern states are cons der
able contri butors Of this grain. Prof.
Knapp thinks there are about ten mil
lion acres of land in the five Gulf
States we'll suited to rice culture. IT.
rigation is necessary. and wherever in
these states it can be made readily
available, rice growing can be made
profitable. When it is considered that
RIGA Is almost the sole food of many
millions OF people in Ind a, China and
OTTER Asiatic Countries, the consumr-
ton in the United States is, by compar-
ison. very small
