CHEAP CRACKERS.
Time Table in effect June %. 1902.

Don't be deceived, and pay full price for the
cheap crackers, they are made cheap, and
are sold cheap but when you buy st. Johns
bury Crackers, you may be sure that you
will get full value for your money. as no
adulterated stock of any kind whatever, is
used in their manufacture. One comparison
with the cheap crackers will convince anyone
of that fact.

LESSON THOUGHTS.
The same faith that enabled Enoch to
maintain an elevated walk with God
enables men today to take the highest
ground on all questions of philosophy,
political economy, and philanthropy,
and to walk with God by living as near
ly as possible in harmony with all the
laws of his universe.
The Noahs of to-day are the men who,
with faith in the inevitable progress of
the race, see far into the problems of the
future, and shape the worlds business,
it's industries, and its politics according
ly.
Whatever we have to do, there is
only one secret OF overcoming; and that
is keeping our eyes fixed upon Jesus,
who for the JOY that was set before him
endured the cross, despising the shame"

which is said to be up to date and spar
king with novelties. The performance will
be given by The Ttopians," which COM
pany is among the leaders in the burlesque
field this season. In it are a number of
clever comedians and big chorus of
handsome girls, who will present bright,
laugh-prOvoking program, funny in dia-
logue. tuneful in music, clever in concep-
ton and gorgeous in dress. The two bur
lesques. The Magic Hat and Hotel Raz-
ZIe Dazzle" are said to be among the best
of the kind, and contain many laughable
situations. They are also full of the latest
songs and dances, among which may be
mentioned The Pajama Girls THE Ping
Pong Girls" The City Troop" the 'Sene-
gamban Singers and Dancers" and many
others. The olio is a particularly strong
one, Introducing such well-known perform

CorIING ATTRACTIONS
Academy of Music

1t is expected that the Academy of Mu-
sic will be crowded next week on the oc-
casion of the presentation of a sensational
melodrama entitled The Road to Ruin"
which has just completed an engagement
in New York city, where it met with de-
cided success. The play is from the pen
of Theo. Kremer, who has exerted every
effort in writing the plot of this produc-
tiOn, calling to his aid many real happen
ings in the great metropolis The idea of
the play is to prove to the public that vice
may have it's own way for a long time,
but cannot triumph in the end. Some of
the scenes have never been witnessed on
the American stage, notably the under
ground railway tunnel. showing the New
York Broadway cable cars in full opera
tton. Another great scene is the famous
New York TOmbs prison. There is re-
volving scene shown here, and incidentally
the audience are given an opportunity of
Witnessing a daring and successful escape
of one of the inmates. This is without
doubt one Of the greatest effects ever at
tempted, and brings forth rounds of ap-
plause wherever presented Another strong
feature of the play is the badger game
giving the audience insight into the viii
lainy carried on by the use of a female ac-
COmplice. The cast is exceptionally strong,
and meets all the requirements of the play.

Norris & Rowe's Trained Animals.

What promises to be one of the big events
of the season is the forthcoming visit to this
city of Norris & Rowe's big trained antma |
shows. The past season was record break
e. for this show. In San Francisco Port
land, Seattle, Salt Lake, Denver, Kansas
City, Minneapolis, st. Paul and Duluth hun
ance, and its tour was one continuous oya-
ton. The season of 1902 marks long and
rapid strides in advance of similar exhibit
tions in the way of size and grandeur
The special features this season are the
performing lions. camels, seals, buffaloes
baby elephants and the most marvellous
troupe of juvenile performers, while many
of the popular features of past years are
retained, that. taken all in ALL they give
as clever a performance as one could wish
10 witness. There are two performing lions
Sultan and Suitana. 1t Is a well-eSt ablish-
ed fact that these animals are more difficult
to train than any others in the animal king
dom. Lions and other cat animals, from
the very fact that they are treacherous by
nature and fierce by instinct, are the most
dangerous pupils to instruct. and the work
or perfecting them In their acts before
they can be exhibited In public sometimes
lasts Tor months. During the entire period
Of, their training the teacher never knows
what moment he may have to battle for
his life The fact that they are educated to
do certain things does not change their ma
ture In the least. Just as much caution is
necessary to avert danger in entering a den
containing trained lions as though thew
were not trained at all. Mr.. Norris has
to perform upon pony's back while riding
az full speed around the ring. He has been
an animal trainer for many years and has
MADE constant study Of their habits and

MUSICAL M EN- ITO N

Miss Eva Mills was at one time the most
brilliant singer in Washington, and her
sweet and highly cultivated voice is well
remembered by many of the music-loving
community. For many years before her
marriage to Mr.. Theodore A. Mills she had
lived in retirement, devoting herself to
teaching. Since her marriage and removal
to Pittsburg she has developed into COM
poser and has written several marches and
waltzes, which have met with marked
favor. One of her waltzes has met the ap-
probation of John Philip Sousa, and he has
written her that his band will play 1t at
the opening of the Pittsburg exposition
next month. Mrs. Mills voice, which, in
her younger days, was a high, colorature
soprano has now developed into deep,
rlch contralto, which has been much
praised by critics of the smoky city for its
power and emotional quality.

iloretto tells love tragedy of Japan, and
the entire opera breathes the quaint

drama Is story Of modern Babylon Of the

Saturday evening last the Peyton String
quartet had benefit and the whole village
OF Hehoboth Beach turned out to show their
good feeling for the orchestra. Mrs. Rob-
bins and Mrs WEIGH of Washington each
gave vocal numbers, and were eneored, the

up and gave a cake walk that was very
lunny' Then there were numbers by the
quartet on the mandolin cello and piano

hop. The orchestra is composed of Mrs.
Eeorg1e Walcott and her son Clinton and
TWO daughters, Maude and Blanche.

the melodrama THE Span of Life" Strong
heart interest, exciting climaxes, thrilling
situations, natural dialogue, genuine humor,
fine stage settings and competent acting
are the features that have made this play
the best of modern times. 1t will be pre-
sented at the Academy Monday week. A
great feature of the production will be the

and daring acrobats of the century, who
will form themselves into a bridge thirty

The longest New York engagement ever
played by a musical organization is that

Considering the success which attends an
adequate production of Shakespearean COM
edy 1t is remarkable that this field has not
been more zealously cultivated by theatric
stars The romping fun of the two clowns
in "A Comedy of Errors" made wealth and
reputation for Robson and Crane in their
palmy days of partnership, and revivals of
"A Midsummer Nights Dream have been
made recently with signal success in va
rious cities. Shakespeare's fun, when he
addresses himself to low comedy, is as
convincing and infectious as that of the
late Charles Hoyt himself although the
comparison will strike some scholarly
minds as sacrilege. Charles B. Hanfords
enormously succeSsfuls season in Tanning
of the Shrew" is convincing proof that
Shakespeare's appeal to the laughter-lov-
Ing public is still as potent as it was In
those days when the great bard, less jeal-
Gus perhaps of his reputation as poet than
OF his success as practical manager,
sought to produce for the Globe Theater
plays which would please the people. Mr..
Hanford feels that he does no injustice to
his art when he seeks to present Shake
speare as a popular author rather than as
a pedantic mystery, which so many stu
dents seek to make him.
