THE STIRK FAMILY.
Proud Arist0crats In thu
Realm Of the Arena.

The famous Stirk family, one Of the
great features OF the Wallace shows,
does work that borders on the mar
velous. In truth, some OF their at
tainments are of such complex diff
culties that it frequently passes with
but little more notice from the public
than their simpler displays solely be
cause the audience can follow its in
tricate and perplexing para
dox. It not infrequently happens
that when q particularly hazard
GUS feat is accomplished the strong
est and most pronounced applause
win come from the entry Wherein the
other actors of the show may invari-
ably be found ranged as spectators
when ssthe Stirks are on.
This tribute TO their genius from
their fellow performers is as unusual
as it is spontaneous, and testifies to
their superiority more eloquently
than any eulogy possibly could.
When an act can hold the atten-
tlon of actors as that OF the Stirks
does, 1t may indeed be said to be
truly great. At Richmond on Tues
dAv. April 80.

when Coal was Prohibited.

It makes the present generation smile
to read the accounts which have come
down to us concerning the prejudices
which were formerly entertained
against certain articles which are Of
everyday consumption.
For instance, it is said that when coal
was first u 1 in England the prejudice
against it was so strong that the house
of commons petitioned the king to pro-
hibit the use Of the "noxious" fuel.
A royal proclamation having failed to
abate the nuisance, a commission was
issued to ascertain who burned coal
within the city Of London and it's neigh
borhood, to punish them by force for
the first offense and by the demolition
of their furnaces if they persisted In
transgressing. A law was finally pass
ed making it capital offense to burn
coal in the city and only permitting it
to be used by FORCES in the vicinity. 1t
is stated that among the records in the
Tower Of London q document was
found according to which a man was
hanged in the time of Edward 1. for no
other crime than having been caught
burning coal. 1t took three centuries
to entirely efface the prejudice.

To- The game of cards was first played
in the east and seems to have had q
military origin. Cards were introduced
from Asia into Europe at the time Of
the crusades and were first used by
necromancers to foretell fortunes. They
soon became a popular amusement in
the south of Europe, where the Sara
Gems and Moors taught the people how
to use them, and card playing spread
to all parts Of the continent. The state
records Of Germany mention the fact
that Rudolph l., in 1875, was fond of
the game and played with his court
Sers.
After the invention of paper the man
ufacture Of cards became extensive,
but declined somewhat when card play
ing was forbidden by several Of the
German states and by the English gov
eminent on account Of the supposed
immoral tendency. Before the era of
