TIE DRAMA IN EMPORIA.

Says the dramatic critic of William
Allen Whites Emporia Gazette: EN-
portals favorite dramatist is the man who
wrote "McCarthy's Mishaps' Next to
him is William Shakespeare, deceased.
The author of McCarthy's tribulations
stands 'em up in the gallery at 80 cents
a head. The late Bard of Avon stacks
EN- UP in the parquette at $3.50 a seat.
Last night was season of Shakespeare
can refreshment when the church social
crowd and the Junto and Thesaurus and
Current Club all mingled with the Hap
py Hoppers and the Trundle Bed Trash
and the Dirty Face crowd. Generally
speaking, Emporia considers Shakespeare
''deep,' which means that there are no
trap doors and no slap-sticks and no
pneumatic "Dutchman" to be kicked
through the scenery. But last evening
Shakespeare was not deep and the wom-
en- who brought their copies of ''The
Tanning of the Shrew" along didn't get
to read the lines as frequently as they
do when "Hamlet'' comes to town, for
Charles Hanford's company played it
fast and furiously. None Of the dash
and the vim Of the piece was lost because
it happened to be Shakespeare and not
Charley Hoyt.'

they marched to the armory, taking
warden Wilkinson, Capt. Murphy and
other officers and guards, all closely
guarded by the convicts with knives.
AT the armory they helped themselves
TO guns and ammunition, each convict
having a rife and pistol. During this
time the other guards had the crowd
covered with guns. but could not
shoot because of the free men. After
leaving the armory the party moved
across the prison grounds, there being
at that time 13 convicts and 13 free
men. After going a short distance the
free men were forced to disrobe. the
convicts putting on their clothes, and
the guards being forced to get into the
convlcts' garbs. Some of the free
men were then allowed to return to
the prison. They were Warden Wilk

BurIe.que at the Empire.

Two crowded houses were present at the
opening of the weeks bill of the Phil Sheri-
dan City Sports Company at the Empire
Theater yesterday. The burlesque COM
pany. headed by Crissie Sheridan. time
honored queen of burlesque. contains sew
eral good features, and as a whole fur
nishes amusement during the performance.
The frequent of mild profanity in the
show secured the applause of the gallery
where the wit OF the comedians, failed to
appeal to their sense of humor. The OPEN
ing burlesQue, "A Mistake in Society,",
gives a pretext for the Interpolation of
number of popular songs, sung by the prin-
cipals of the company, assisted by the
chorus of twenty-eight girls. The chorus is
not well drilled and frequently sings out of
tune, but contains several voices or more
than average merit.
Several specialties fill in the time between
the closing of the first burlesque and the
afterpiece, Fun at Brighton" John 5.
Renzatta and Harry La Rue, In an eccen-
trio comedy acrobatic act, are probably the
best of the bill. The speciality is full OF
fun, and La Rue's clever work at eccentric
tumbling was appreciated by the spectators.
acrobats refrain from talking, but create
laughter by their eccentricities. Miss Hazel
Burt, in a well-practiced voice, sings popu-
lar songs, accompanied by pictures, but
none of her songs are new. Tom Beeson,
Lulu Beeson, Harry Ferguson and a scare
crow furnish good act of the olio. Miss
Beeson is a clever buck and wing dancer,
and wears a medal won in dancing con-
test which was offered by the editor of
theatrical periodical. The humor of her
two male assistants is somewhat weak, but
good in places. Kennedy and Evans, as
Celtic wits, are not very witty, and their
act tires before it is completed. They are
assisted by monkey that is funny without
an effort Some jokes used in their sketch
were good when new, but are no longer
novelty. The Everett Trio of acrobats con-
tribute TO the merit of the olio with a good
act. The two women and the man depart
somewhat from the ordinary work of aero
batic teams. and perform with agility and
grace several difficult featS.

Detroit Journal
The subject of spraying. using moth traps
and any other means to produce better
fruit is being discussed more and more
every season. Having secured several hum
dred trees which will soon be bearing, /
have been observing and learning every
thing possible the subject, and have
come to the following conclusion:
Spraying intelligently done. is the best
method to pursue in order to have fruit
free from worms, scab or rust and rot,
but unless it is done rightly 1t is work and
money thrown away. Among the farmers
or those who do not make fruit growing a
speciality, the operation Is generally USE
less, owing to poor machines and cheap
materials used and improper time of APP
plying them.
The moth trap is worse than nothing, as
it catches more than 50 per cent. beneficial
or harmless insects and does not prevent
scab and rot. L have visited several
orchards where these traps were used, and
invariably they have had the worst lot Of
apples that l ever saw. The finest fruit
have found in orchards where hogs
ran and cleaned up all wormy apples, and
where poultry was allowed free range. One
orchard which L purchased had chicken
coops under nearly every tree, and out OF
twenty-five barrels of Grimes there were
not over three or four wormy apples, and
the same was true of other varieties; but
scab was very bad and had the trees been
sprayed for that trouble L believe fully 80
per cent. of the fruit would have been first
class
In every instance where many chickens
were reared in the orchard the fruit was
comparatively free from worms. and where
both hogs and poultry were allowed free
range the fruit was even better. This plan
followed for single season will not give
such results, but should be followed every
year, so that the crop of coddling-moth
will be lessened each season.
This plan, then, SHOULD be adopted by
farmers and fruit growers, where the
orchard is not too large and could be
fenced and used exclusively as poultry
yard. Guineas and ducks are even better
than chickens at bug catching, and will
pay for their keep in this way. Some crops,
such as cowpeas. soy beans or oats. may
be planted for the hogs and poultry. and
without evil effects upon the trees. In this
way the orchard will be one of the most
paying spots on the farm.-E. b. Davis, in
Prairie Farmer.
