''For Love and Honor" strong
melodrama by William w. Lapoint, is
bound to prove an excellent attraction
at the Grand Opera House this week.
1T was received at its true worth by
an audience that entirely filled the
theatre last night" says the Buffalo
Courier.
''In scenic displays this production
makes bid to give more thrills to the
square inch than any other play of its
class, and 1t comes pretty near to the
limit of stage possibilities in this dl-
rection. These thrills include the saw
ing of a fast express train from plung-
Ing to destruction at an open draw
bridge; mine explosion and an en-
citing horse race, in which the heroine
rides to win her home and her lover.
Throughout the play good special
ties are interspersed TO prevent the
strenuous moments from causing ner-
yous prostrations. A well balanced
company presents the piece

UNIVERSITY BEER CURE.

BERLIN, August 1O.-The Crown
Prince, who was ordered to Potsdam
from the University at Bonn, a month
ago, while suffering from a severe az
tack of jaundice, has entirely recover
ed.
1t has leaked out that the cause of
the Crown Princes illness was too
much compulsory beer drinking, mer-
ry custom among the students at Bonn
which not even royalty can escane.
The Princes removal to POtsdam was
shortly before the Kaiser's visit to
Bonn, when he made a snech - the
students declaring that over-indulgence
in beer was most prejuuicial 10 the
health.
In order that his meaning should be
quite clear to those who had forced un-
due quantities of the LIQUID down the
Crown Princes throat, the Kaiser add
ed that the custom of forcing young
students to drink enormous mugs of
beer at single gulp as punishment
for infringing some slight rule of the
club was absurd.

reached here from Seville that the dis

tarantulas They are found in great
numbers not only in the fields but also
in the dwellings, and many persons
have been bitten by them.
The bites produce an intense state Of

bitten seem to be on wires, so rapid
are their movements.
In accordance with ancient custom,
the patients are further melted to

The municipality of Ossuna have en-

A Hoss' ON THE BISHOP.

LONDON, August 9.-London lovers
of a good story-and this means all
London-are busy guessing the name or
the Bishop who is the hero of the fol-
lowing delicious narrative:
Recently, when the Bishop returned
home after few days absence, he dis
covered that a certain travelling bath,
which he kept in his study and treasur-
ed exceedingly, had been taken and
used by Mary the cook.
The offense was a grave one. The
Bishop summoned Mary into his pre-
sence and solemnly rebuked her, finish
ing his hdmily thus impressively:
Understand Mary, that what | mlnu
most is not your using my bath, but
your doings behind my back what you
would not do before my face"

TRVTNG'S DEBUT.

Probably few actors have made their
first public appearance under as re-
markable and inspiring conditions as
Sir Henry Irving. 1t was in Sunder-
land some forty-fve years ago that Sir
Henry made his bow to the public
acros the footlights; and by strange
coincidence it was the young actor who
spoke the first line of "Richelieu,' a
play which was presented for the first
time in Sunderland that night, which
was also the first night on which the
theater was opened. Not the least sin
gular fact is that the great actors ear
liest effort should be associated with
"Richelieu" and the "Lyceum" Thea
ter, names which are identified with
the zenith of his powers and popular
ity.

SARATOGA, N. Y, Aug. 9.-John w.

is a source of endless entertainment to
the sporting folks. Standing about FIVE

house last night they watched him
play faro, Chicago style. Producing
from his vest pocket a wad of bills, he
said: GIVE me some checks" They
were given him-$2, 600 worth. What's
the limit" he asked.
The roof" replied the proprietor.
Gates then began playing, and some
spread eagle ventures reached almost
to the roof. One of his achievements
was in calling the turn" at the end Of
the deal for $3.50 and placing money
enough on the cards to win $3.50.

Monte Carlo, always ready for new
sensation, was talking about the man
whose rusty black coat was wadded
with money. In day or~two he dis
appeared as suddenly as he had come.
Among the onlookers was a young New
York editorial writer to whom the
name and face of the president of the
Carnegie company-as Mr.. Schwab was
then-was familiar. Thus the story
became known.
This time also Schwab was unfor-
tunate. When he got to the Casino an
American Paris correspondent had run
down there to watch poor Lord Ross
lyn's attempt to "break the bank"
Rosslyn's money was soon gone in
spite of his system" but the manage
ment furnished him money to go on
Playing, just to advertise the game.
So when Schwab dropped in he was
seen by the correspondent. He played
reckless.y, laying enormous stakes,
and was at one time $4,000 ahead of
the game.
Monte Carlo has peculiar fascina-
ton for Americans. The newly made
Mrs. Depew dropped a. ladylike S25 or
so there recently. w. X. Vanderbilt's
face is better known in Monte Carlo
than in New York. He stakes heavily,
but is not "fiend." Young Harry
'Thaw, of Pittsburg, risks few coins
now and then.
Only two games are played at Monte
Carlo. A dollar is the smallest stake
at che, four dollars at the other. Wom-
en- are most plenty about the cheaper
game; the men are apt1to risk gold.

'e"''' man of energy,
education, presence and purpose. Its
district leaders are the best poll
ticians in the city. 1t has nothing to
do now but take things easy and wait
for fusion to make blunders.
Croker is out. Will he stay? /
think so. For the first time he is re-
moving all the personal effects that
have adorned his suite of rooms in
the Democratic club. They are going
to Vantage, his splendid English
home, 60 great boxes full Of them.
Croker is an old man, fond of ease
and rich enough to manage for
awhile. Besides, though everything
was quietly managed, he could not
stay at the head in Tammany if he
tried. His beating last fall was too
personal. Croker was warned of the
danger of putting up Van Wyck for
a judgeship. He persisted, and
enough unlettered Tammany men
spoiled their ballots trying to scratch
the mayor to have elected the entire
county ticket.
A wonderful man, this Croker. He
is of a good English family long resi-
dent in Ireland. The Croker motto
is God Feeds Them''-a punning al
fusion to the name and to the three
crows in the ancient coat of arms.
Such puns are common in heraldry.
When the Crokers came to America
they settled in shanty. The father
was blacksmith; also an Orangeman.
The son left school at Is, already a
famous rough-and-tum fighter. He
fight, winning as much by his pierre
ing eye and his determination as
by his fist. He became the boss of
the "Tunnel gang" and the hero of
! many fights. Out of one of these
sprang an Indictment for murder
which he probably did not commit.
While in the Tombs he became &C

He owns the Belle Meade farm, worth
$25o,oo0; in England three separate

CHESTNUT CULTURE.
Methods Employed by n Pennsyl-
vania Gentleman Who Has
a Grove of 2O5 Acres.

Coleman K. Sober, of Union county,
Pa, owns the largest chestnut grove
in the United States, says the Phila-
delphia Press. 1t comprises EOS
acres, with over 100000 trees. Mr..
Sober is a wealthy lumberman of
Lewisburg, whose object is to render
profitable the millions of acres of
wild mountain land in the common
wealth. When boy of 12 he asked
his father, while grating fruits, to
graft some young chestnut trees, but
was only laughed at. Five years ago
he carried out his boyish idea, on
land too rough even for sheep pas
ture, the waste of numbering opera
tons, on the sides of Irish valley,
eight miles from Shamokin. Pine and
oak were cut down generation ago,
leaving chestnut standing. Cutting
these down, young shoots sprung up
which were grated with scions of
Paragon, crisp, sweet nut, five
times as large as the native chestnut.
This fall Mr.. Sober harvested his first
crop, 30 bushels, worth 81 bushel.
and in few years his returns will
i
be by the thousands. In fact, the
estimate for next year is about 5000
bushels, which, at Sc, would be S1s,-
600, from land not worth So an acre
for farming purposes. Mr.. Sober did
the first grating himself, with lit
tie assistance. The last two seasons
he employed eight grafters for five
weeks, each man averaging 300 trees
day. Ninety per cent. of the CRAFTS
were successful. The groves are pro-
tected on two sides by fire roads"
and all brush is carefully burned.
Game chickens are kept to prey on
the chestnut weevel, and sheep to
keep the grass down. Mr.. Sober ia
vors transplanting seedlings rather
than planting nuts.

HIGHWAYS IN EUROPE.
France Probably Has the Rest Laws
for Building and Repairing
Public Roads

Two hundred years ago England
had the worst roads in the world, be-
cause the peasantry living on the
roads aloneNwere required to work
them. In speaking of them Macauley
says chat route connecting two
great towns which have a large and
fiourishing trade with each other
should be maintained at the cost of
the rural population scattered be-
tween them is manifestly unjust. It
was not until many toll bars had
been violently pulled down, until the
troops had in many instances been
forced to act against the people, and
until much blood had been shed that
good system was introduced"
Every class now contributes to the
maintenance of the road system in
England. The French have probably
the most efficient laws and regula-
tons in the world for the building
and repairing of highways. The min
lister of public works has the general
superintendent of all roads and
ways by land and by water. There
are four classes of road recognized
by law, namely: ~ national, (2) de-
partmental, (3) military, az cross
roads. National roads are built and
kept up by the national treasury.
Departmental roads are charge
upon the departments through which
they pass, and part of the military
roads are kept up by the government
and a part by the departments
through which the roads pass.
The cross roads are kept up by the
con1munes, though sometimes in
thinly populated regions these COM
munes receive assistance from the
government, especially when these
roads become of Importance.
The national roads are paved like
street, having an average width of
521a feet. The departmental roads
are 80 feet wide, and the military and
cross roads are of variable width.
Piles of broken stone are placed at
convenient distances and man is
constantly employed in repairing each
section.-American Asphalt Journal.

Government Help 1. Needed.

The improvement of our country
roads is SO nearly private matter
that we need not look for govern
ment help. All the taxes raised in
cities for road improvement are ex-
pended within the city limits, SO that
the wealth of the cities would be ex-
empt, except through the possible
channel of state or county aid. Thus,
the expense of making hard roads
would fall upon the farm lands and
personal property outside of the
cities. AS the laws now stand there
is nothing to hinder the making of
good or hard roads wherever the ma
terial is within reasonable distance,
or where we feel like mourning tbs
necessary outlay of time and money.

Farmer
