THE ROYAL BOX" at the Audi
torium, Thursday evening, March 7th,
under the management of L. M
LUCHS.
A few facts relative to the attraction
at the Auditorium next Thursday
night, March 7th, will at this time be
very acceptable. 1.-THE Royal Box" is
a play founded on Dumas celebrated
drama "Kean." 1t was adapted, re-
modelled and rewritten by the late
Charles Coghlan and was presented to
the Academy of Music this city for
the first time on any stage in 1867. lis
story is an episode in the life OF a
distinguished English actor, called in
the drama James Clarence. Clarence
is the leading character and the
scenes are laid mostly around Drury
Lane Theatre and the haunts of the
then Prince of Wales. The piece is
very dramatic and novel in the manner
of it's presentation.

OF VESTS COINAGE.-Senator
Vest has coined a phrase which Is be-
coming popular with the minority.
The inspiration for it was found in the
debate on the shipping subsidy bill.
The Missouri Senator described the in
duences which were supporting this
legislation as "an interdependent mu-
tuality of greed" The expression has
been borrowed since at both ends of
the capitol 1t is being used by Dem
ocratic statesmen in speeches against
almost any kind of legislation which
has Republican Endorsement. 1t seems
to be a pleasing substitute for pluto
cratic conspiracy"

JUSTICE HARLAN SHOCKED.-A
diligent student of law books recently
came upon curious thing in volume
of United States Supreme court deci-
sions. The case was not one of very
grave Importance. Mr.. Chief Justice
Fuller had written the opinion of the
Court. He concluded about as follows:
I'm this case the Court has adopted the
line of argument laid down in an opin-
ion rendered by Justice Harlan" Then
followed the number of the precedent
case, the volume of the report and the
page, so that any one who desired
might read in detail what Justice Har-
Ian had said on the former occasion.
But appended to this later opinion rem
dered by the Chief Justice was the fol-
lowing: Mr.. Justice Harlan dissents. -
The stalwart Kentuckian was record
ed in all the formality of the official
report as having squarely reversed
himself. What did Justice Harlan
say when his attention was called to
the report. my! My! That oughtn't to
have gone in that way 1t will bring
the court into contempt" And the
Justices eyes twinkled.

Russell SAGE .. /. Farmer.

A handsome but simple frame house
at Lawrence, Long Island, surrounded
by some five acres Of land, is the quiet
retreat where the tired Wall street
magnate, Russell Sage, has enjoyed his
summers for many years. Here he is
typical Long Island farmer in old
clothes and straw hat. Many a man
farming for bare living could gain
information in his own business from
Russell Sage. He has no use for or.
chids, and costly fads, but he watches
the development Of every field within
radius of many miles about his
country home. In the stable are half
. dozen horses. raised and broken to
harness by the great financier. and he
shows the delight Of a hoy in hitching
them up and driving over the country
roads. There arc goodly number of
domestic pets. 1t may be said that
there are two Russell Sages. one tho
financier familiar to New York. the
other the man OF leisure in his coun-
try home.

al water boils over hot fire. 1t
freezes mercury so hard thas one can

Mr.. Charles e. Tripler, the expert,
menter in liquid air, recently took
quart can of the remarkable substance
with him on visit to friend. On
the way he stopped in restaurant to
eat q beefsteak The waiter brought
In hot broiled steak and placed it in
front OF Mr.. Tripler. AS so'sn as the
walters back was turned Nj. Tripler
hastily opened the can and exposed the
meat to the liquid air. Instantly the
steak was frozen hard as a rorS. When
the waiter came back his customer
complained that the steak was frozen.
So the waiter called the heat waiter,
and the head waiter blamed It all on
the cook and the cook was at il loss to
explain. and the result was that the
frozen steak was taken back into the
kitchen as a mysterious curiosity. A

Gave Filling Device.
A d,..ice for use in constructing
ayes, the invention Of Henry d.
Cameron. Of Burlington, Iowa. is de-
signed to fill the grave with earth after
the coffin has been lowered. and to
conceal as far as possible the actual
throwing of tie dirt upon the coffin,
the most trying termination of the
grave ceremony to the bereaved
mourners. It consists of receptacle.
with detachable sides and bottom, Ind
gate in the latter sc arranged as to
be capable Of being opened to allow
the contents to fall. The front is a
flexible curtain, extending from the
top to the gate, and designed to pre-
vent the earth within from being seen.
This receptacle is filled with earth
previous to the ceremony and carried
to a convenient point. When all Is
over and the grave is to be filled, the
receptacle is placed over 1t. and the
gates opened. thus gently closing the
last sad scene in a much more fitting
manner than the seemingly cold
hearted return OF the earth with
spade.

Latest Fad of Critics.

The latest fad of critics, the New
York Press says, is to rebel against
the names of months. They point out
that 1t is absurd for Europeans and
Americans Of today to dedicate one
sixth of the year to the memory of
Julius Caesar and Augustus, to name
third after heather gods and god
desses. to have two months Of doubt
full nomenclature, and to designate the
remaining four by misleading numer-
icals, September being obviously ninth
and not seventh in order.

Italy furnishes the largest quota this
