the corresponding week last year of $751;
494.S7. For the three weeks of January
the earnings were ssss.747.35. an increase
of s45.6S353 The handsome earnings the
lines are now making, exceeding those of
any former year, evidence that the
business offered. One of the officials said
yesterday that but for the embargoes of
connecting roads on certain lines of traffic
the exhibits would be even more favorable,
as there was trouble to get cars unloaded
and returned to be reloaded per diem and
demurrage charges cutting no figure in
fastening the return of cars.

ORANGES VERSUS WHISKY.
How Young Man straightened Up
In Order to Marry.


''There are a number of instances
on record where antidotes to the
whisky habit, though conscientious
" followed, have failed" remarked
an eastern merchant on a visit to
the capital. 'sBut there is one of
the simplest nature, too, that has
been known to cure topers of all
degrees, which recalls to me one of
the worst cases | have ever known,
the case of a young man from my
state. He could and did drink more
whisky to the square inch than any
man | ever heard Of three pints a
day was a usual thing. Then sud-
denly he swore off. He fell in love
with a girl who would not stand for
such proceedings and made it clear
to him that it was up to him to do
something. He admitted his weak
ness to her, which everybody else
had known for years, and then and
there swore off for good and all
time, which, of course, nobody else
but the girl believed. The sequel is
that he kept his word, and after
sufficient test they were married.
Gle has since told me that to
stop drinking in that abrupt way
nearly killed him and that at times
he was almost crazy, but that he
also knew to break through once
would be the end of his reformation.
Every time the maddening desire
for whisky came he would start
right in and begin to eat oranges
and continue to eat them as long as
the appetite for whisky lasted, fire.

Tn eatrical Tips

On Friday night, May 9th, "a Busy
Day" will be the attraction, and from
all accounts the company is a good
one. AS the title suggests, the piece
is farce comedy, and an evening OF
solid fun and mirCh is promised. AS
this is the first. show after Lent. the
opera house will undoubtedly be
packed. The Comedy is of tho higher
order of farce, AMI not the slap, bang
sort that consists OF horse-play, rather
than legitimate fun and pleasure.
An amusing story is told OF a
certain little "miss" of this town. A
few days ago Mr., Stanley was posting
some paper on the bill board opposite
the opera house. The little "miss'
in question was very much interested
in the work, and after it was finished
the following dialogue took place:
"Little miss" us that show coming
back again.
Mr.. Stanley.-What show do you
mean.
Little miss.-That one you just put
the bills up fol-.
Mr.. S.-Read them for me.
Little miss. -"Swift's Pride Soap"
That's good show amt it, Mr..
Stanley?-A quick exit by Stanley
and paste bucket.
Here's another one. This time
we'll known business man is the
guilty one, A show was being posted
and one of the large flour sheet
dates had just been put up The
gentleman read the date ST. WHY and
then remarked; say Stanley when is
