There was a pretty lively time at the
Orpheum Theater yesterday afternoon,
during the heavy rain. In the roof over
the stage part of the theater there are
some leaks, and with the heavy down
pour they made the most of their OPP
portunity. Rain is not good for seem
cry, and the scenery brought to the
Orpheum by the Walter Sanford Com
pany represents thousands of dollars.
1t was painted by the best scene paint
ers in the United States, Young Broth
ers of New York, and of course the
company did not want it spoiled before
it had been used here. To prevent any
damage the theater force We're called
together and moved the scenery out of
all danger from the leaks. BY this
prompt action it was all saved from
any damage, and will be used in the
season of plays by the Sanford Com

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE.

LONDON, November 1.-Christian
Science is making Roadway here. At
present there are about 500 Christian
Scientists in London. but their num-
Der will probably be largely augment
ed when thew have erected their new
church which Is about to be con-
structed near Sloane square. 1t will
be an imposing building, unique in
its architectural features. It's plan
will be semi-circular; it will be faced
with stone throughout and surmount-
ed by a half-dome. The cost of the
new temple will be between 100000
and 10000. Although the preten-
sions of the Christian Scientists have
been subjected to rigorous eXamina-
ton and mercilessly criticised, many
people have embraced their doctrines
throughout the country, and funds
are literally subscribed for the propa-
cation of the new religion. They work
quietly, nothing having yet appeared
in the English press about their
church.

NO WITCHES BURNED.

An inquiry is made by II. l.. Bolt
wood, principal of a high school at
Evanston, H., for historic proof" of
an assertion made in a letter from
Marion in the Old Colony that 'so-call-
ed witches were burned" Mr.. Bolt
wood says he has never been able to
get any trustworthy statement that
witches We're ever burned in New Eng
land. And ne never will, despite the
New York Tribune's correspondent, be-
cause no such thing ever happened. 1t
is odd that this ancient SANDER should
be revived, and particularly concerning
the Pilgrim republic, where the only
trials for witchcraft, in the midst of
the craze that was so tragic in Salem,
resulted in a verdict for SANDER a
gainst the accuser in one case, and in
the other in an acuuittal. But even
in Salem no one was burned though
there were one or two hanged, and
there was such a case in Springfield.

COFFEE.

c. Z. Beckford, coffee broker under
date of San Francisco November 6, has
the following to say regarding the mar
ket for coffee.
The demand since last issue has been
very active and a large business has
been done both locally and for over
land shipment at somewhat higher
figures in sympathy with the advance
in the New York and European mar
kets Spot quotations in New York
have advanced 5-Sc. on No. Rio and
Use. on No. Santos during the past
month and futures from 60 to so points
and remain steady under unusually
heavy buying-sales on the exchange
averaging more than 100000 bags per
day for the past 10 days. While the
advance Is attributed to the heavy
buying of speculative interests, the
prevailing opinion is that prices will
tend higher.
The local statistical position is good
there remaining 33,172 bags in first
hand, not an over abundant supply in
second hands, and a continued active
