The stern face of Mr.. Bergh relaxed
into a smile, and in the better under

STAGE LIGHTS.
Their Various Uses and the Name
by which They Are known.

Their Various Uses and the Names
by which They Are known.
Lights play an important part on
the stage of the modern theater, and
they have many uses. The spot fight,
FOR instance, is employed to cast a cir
Gle of light upon the stage where sin
gle person is to be brought into espe-
cial prominence. 1t consists of an arc
electric light inclosed in a cylindrical
hood about the diameter Of a stove
pipe and provided at the open end
with a condenser lens for the purpose
of concentrating the rays upon small
area
A flood light is an arc in a rectangu-
lar box painted white upon the inside
to serve as a reflector. It is supposed
to flood the stage with light; hence its
name
Bunch lights are clusters of gas or
incandescent lights either arranged
within a reflector or exposed naked.
They are used back of a scene behind
doorways, where light is needed off
the stage to represent the illumina-
ton of that part of a dwelling not
shown. For the same purpose strip"
lights are used-rows of incandescent
lights fastened to a strip of wood pro-
vided with hook by which it may
be hung to the back of a scene when
required
side" lights are incandescent lights
arranged on either side of the prosce-
mum arch. Sometimes they are built
within the arch or they are arranged
to be swung outward when the cur

The footlights are familiar to all.

over the stage directly above tire seen

These are arranged in a trough like an
inverted "'U'' to cast their light down
upon the stage. These are practically
all of the lights used upon the stage of
a house, though magic lanterns are
employed at times for the stimulation
of water effects. moonlight ripples and
lightning The old fashioned calcium,
using the oxyhydrogen gas, is so sell
dom employed in the modern theater
as to call for no. comment.

BBBLBR' Hill
Being Cut Down by Contractor Henry
Miller.

Henry Miller the contractor, Is
again at work cutting down BeeIer s
hill, southwest of this city. 1t is es-
timated that it will require several
months to complete the work, which
has been temporarily abandoned for
the last few months on account of the
frozen condition of the ground. The
hill, one of the familiar landmarks
around here, is being cut down to
make going to and coming from Rich
mond easier for the farmers, as, on
account of the exceedingly steep
grade, most farmers from that part
of the county prefer a long circuit
around and consequent loss of time to
climbing the steep and long hill

STEAMER CANADA
IN A COLLISION
Strikes a Coal Barge and Quickly
Goes to the Bottom.
FIVE LIVES WERE LOST
AZ the Time OF the Collision There
Were over Hundred Pas
sengers ON Board the
Cannda

Montreal Que. June 13.-The Riche-
lieu & Ontario Co.'S steamer Canada,
bound from Quebec for Montreal, came
into collision with the Dominion Coal
Co.'S collier Cape Breton six miles be-
low Sorel early Sunday Twenty min
utes later the Canada went to the bot
tom. At the time of the collision there
were 40 people on board the Canada.
Five we're lost; the others were res
sued Those who persisted were:
Alfred Thibeault, ticket agent Of the
company at Quebec.
Two sons of Alfred Thibeault, aged II
and Is.
Purser Bonneterre, of the Canada.
A man named Brunei, of Sorel, is
missing, and it is supposed that he per-
ished.
The collision occurred just as dawn
was breaking. The Cape Breton lay
at the entrance of the Lake st. Pc
ter channel, waiting for daylight, so as
to find her way through. She was
getting under way when the Canada
making for Sorel at full speed, came
into view. Just what the collision was
due to, and who is responsible for it,
has not yet been determined, for the
officers of the Canada decline to talk.
But, from the statements given out, 1t
would appear that the Cape Breton
had not go on enough Roadway to an
swer her rudder, and that she swerved
across the path of the passenger boat,
her bow striking the Canada just for
ward of the paddle box on the star
board side and tearing it's way half
through.
Then the Cape Breton swung clear
and the~two steamers came alongside
each other
Sleeping Passengers Aroused.
The shock of the collision aroused
the sleeping passengers. The Canada
at once began to settle, and as the Cape
Breton did not appear to be seriously
damaged, the passengers were hurried
ly transferred to this steamer. In the
excitement some of the passengers
jumped overheard, and were picked up
by boats from the Canada and the Cape
Breton
Twenty minutes later, when the Can
ada went alongside the Cape Breton, all
| the passengers who could be found had
been transferred. Thibeault and his
| two sons occupied stateroom near
where the Cape Breton's bow entered
the Canada, and it is supposed that
they We're killed in their berths. The
body of the father was recovered later
in the day, but the remains of the two
sons have not been found.
Bonneterre, the purser, was seen af-
ter the collision making his way to his
quarters on the lower deck with the
intention of saving the cash and the
records. 1t is supposed that he per-
ished in the attempt.
Brunei was second-class passenger,
and no one saw him after the collision,
though it is possible that he went
ashore with the crew of one of the
boats which was sent to secure help
from Sorel.
Assistance arrived about four o'clock
Sunday afternoon in the steam barge
Prefontaine. The Prefontaine took the
passengers and the crew to Sorel, and
they were brought up to the city Sun
day afternoon on board the company's
steamer Columbian.
| Many of the passengers who occu-
pied staterooms on the upper decR
saved their baggage, but those on the
main deck lost all their belongings.
