THE HUMAN FROG

Of Ferry. the Human Frog, who is
tc show at the Orphcum. the Hobart
Mercury says:
Ferry has been a muChhcard.Of
man in this State for a long time past
and the theater was packed to the
doors yesterday evening by a highly
eXpectant crowd. Everyone had heard
Ferry described as marvel OF the
age, but no one was prepared for the
wonderful exhibition he gave. II was
quite unique and far cXCelled any con.
tortional display ever given here. The
stage was so arranged as to make an
admirable representation of frOgland.
and when Ferry came hopping out II
was hard to realize that a human be.
ing was really before the spectators.
the surprise Of the people increased to
aInaZSment rs he gambolled about and
uttered lrrggy noises, but the climax
WAS not reached until he mounted the
pedestal and perched on a little stand
three inches In diameter. Seated
there he went through long series Of
marvellous contortions, twisting and
bending mis- body and limbs in a man.
ner that can hardly be credited and
which battles description. Everything
was done with ease and grace, so that
there was nothing repulsive about the
display. The spectators appaulcd
again and again, and when he hoped
of the stage the applause increased 10
an ovation. Ferry came back and
swung himself up to bar suspended
from the roof, and, hanging by his
arms, went through some more surpris
ing feats with remarkable deXterity
The applause was maintained until
twice he returned and bowed his &C
acknowledgements, Ferry cannot be toe
lavishly praised and no one should
miss the opportunity of seeing him,
The bioscope's miscellaneous items
also pleased. The war enthusiasm has
apparently not died away altogether
and the appearance OF Lord Robert:

him TO do so.

TRADE REVIEW.
,voiuue Of Business IL Favorably Ell.
fected, Except In South, by
Good Weather.

New York, April 6.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'s Weekly Review Of Trade says:
Another week of good weather has
brought out large volume Of BUSH
ness, many manufacturers receiving
urgent requests for immediate ship
ment. Floods have caused serious
losses at few points along the Mis-
sissippi and traffic was interrupted on
railways in that vicinity, but on the
whole the freight situation is more
satisfactory than at any previous time
this year. Quicker transportation has
relieved the fuel pressure and the in
dustrial situation would be unprece-
dentedly favorable were it not for the
prevalence of labor disputes. Railway
earnings in March increased 1870 per
cent. over last years, and 21.1 per cent.
as compared with 1901. During the
month of March prices of commodi-
ties, as measured by Dun's index num-
Der, declined to $99.267, as compared
with $101.067. This decrease is only
seasonable and is about the same as
occurred in the corresponding period
last year. Less Interruptions from
fuel scarcity and traffic congestion
has produced most desirable condi-
ton of activity in all departments of
the iron and steel industry, but the
structural workers strike threatens
to restrict consumption and provides
the only menacing factor.
Failures this week in the United
States are 173 against PA last week,
22o in the preceding week and 1877 the
corresponding week last year, and in

board. Flour is slightly higher on the
excellent export business. The in

and lumber, are active the country
over. The spring crop of strikes is

them have appeared trifle earlier.

The Saskatchewan Valley Land Co.
Of st. Paul, the biggest land company
In the United States handling Canada

New York, April 6.-Under orders of

of the yard by a detachment of naval

Massey gained entrance to the yard
for the purpose of inducing the derrick

result of his visit three-fourths of the
men have left their places.
Commandant Rogers, after an inter-

Explamatfon to Washington.
Washington, April 6.-Acting Secre-
tary Darling received in Saturday
mornings mail a report from Rear Adj
miral Rogers, commandant at the New
York navy yard, upon the ejectment
from that yard Friday of walking
delegate, one C. S. Massey, represent
ing the Housesmiths' union of New
York. Admiral Rogers statement is a
temperate review of the conditions
which led up to his action.
Seven or eight workmen, he says,
were approached by Massey. They
yielded to his demands and quit work
These men were employed by con-
tractor to install the big derrick which
will handle the material for the battle
ship Connecticut, and the extent Of the
admiral's activity was simply to pre-
vent interference with the working
yards.
AS the case now stands, in view OF
Admiral Rogers statement, the de-
partment does not feel called upon for
any action.
