TRAGEDY OF THE AIR.
The killing of Four Aviators in a
French Dirigible Balloon.

One of the worst fatalities con-
nected with aerial navigation oc-
Cured near Moulins, France, Sep
TENDER 25th, when the dirigible mill
itary balloon, La Republique, ex-
ploded in the air about 500 feet
above the earth, and crashed to the
ground, killing it's four occupants in
Istantly. The balloon, which was
owned by the French government
was in charge of Capt Marchal and
Lieut.. Chaure, and in addition car
ried two mechanics. The accident
was caused by blade of the right
propeller, which became detached
and punctured the envelope. Imme-
diately the gas escaped with roar
like the noise of cannon, and the
car, with its occupants, left without
support crashed to the ground.
The Republique is the second of
the French military balloons to meet
with disaster. 1t was modelled after
the La Patrie, which was the first
balloon to be owned by a European
government, and which the French
war office bought from the Lebandy
brothers Tor 100000. Two years
ago La Patrie was blown away in a
gale and was carried out to sea.
For long time no trace of the bal
loon could be found, but later a part
of the framework was discovered in
the north of Ireland.
Notwithstanding these and other
aerial accident the efforts to effect
a conquest of the air will be con-
tinued. The French war minister.
however, believes that aeroplanes
will take the place of dirigible bal
looms in military maneuvers.

HUTCHENS SUCCEEDS TURNER
CedartOwn Lawyer Is the New Mem
Der of the Georgia Prison
Commission.

ATLANTA.-Governor Brown has
appointed G. Rufe Hutchens of Ce-
dartown member of the prison COM
mission to succeed Judge Joe Sid
Turner, deceased.
Aside from the appointees quail
fications for the place, which are gem
orally recognized, two other consid-

First, he thought it necessary that,
at least one member of board be-
fore which legal matters come,

Then, it was thought that north

But Prices Announcement Doesn't
Insure a Successful Picker.

TO the National Association of
Cotton Manufacturers Theodore n.
Price announces the invention of a
cotton picker. If it is, as alleged,
thoroughly practical, it is an inven-
ton of incalculable value.
In fifty-one years covered by the
seasons of 1S08-59 the American cot
ton crop increased 2,748 per cent.
In the last 285 per cent The in
crease in production with slave labor
was nearly ten times as great as the
increase with free labor. The eman-
cipated negro does not work we'll in
the cotton field. Decrease in the
efficiency of his labor has been so
marked that importation of Southern

NAMES BLUEBERRY CROP.
One County to Which the Berries Are
an Annual Source of Gain.

One County to Which the Berries Are
an Annual Source of Gain.
The latter part of July and early
August of each year is blueberry
time in Washington county, Maine.
Throughout the 10000 acres of
BURBERRY barrens hundreds of per-
sons engage in picking the berries.
Men, women and children strip the
hardy little bushes in almost equal
proportions. To them the season
means a revenue of about $4,000.
With many this is one of the factors
of their annual existence. An aver
age of $40 is gained by each of the
$500 persons occupied. They work
on a percentage basis
Much of the product of their toll
is turned over to the canning fac
tories, there to be prepared for con-
sumption during the months when
blueberries are not in season and in
those places where the luscious ber-
ries do not grow. One of these fac
tories has daily capacity of 700
bushels. 1t does not start opera
tons until great quantity of ber-
rles has been accumulated. Two
weeks usually disposes of the yield,
the portion of which this factory
consumes being about 1900 bushels.
There are about half a dozen such
large factories.
From all over the country the va
rlegated army of pickers come. En-
tire families give over a fortnight to
the work and return with 800 some
times. While much of the berries
are turned over to the Gamers, a
quantity is packed for sale in the
markets Of the large cities.

At the TheaterS
WIG Boys and Betty, at the Bod.

"The Boys and BETTY at the Boyd.
Marie Cahill and company in a musical
play In three acts; books and lyrics by
adapted from the French play, La
Papillon," by Rebe Peter and Robert
Danceny.
There is a d~ifference-an important diff
ference-between Marie Cahill and some
other condolences who are like her in a
certain physical attribute. Her method is
more delicate, and her touch lighter and
more certain. Also a certain coarseness
which the discriminating perceive in these
others is wholly absent from Miss Cahilrs
comedy. But she is not less fupny-rather
more so.
She and a wholly excellent company
gave the first of three performances last
night Of a play, a musical comedy. or a
comedy with music, as you like, and there
was drawn TO see her an audience of a
kind which was particularly suitable to
the play-and which was very well suited
by the play.
Appreciation was, in fact, enthusiastic
not only Of the singing and acting, but the
fashionable folk who filled the theater
were quite well qualified to pass upon
the modish gowns worn in profusion upon
the stage. y
AS for the play: II is the story Of Betty
Barbeau, birth American, habitat France.
and a husband also Gallo. The husband
Is musical, selfish and a cultivator OF the
artistic temperament. More briefly. he is
a cad and a rotter.
Dramatically the first and second acts
are better than the third for the method
OF disposing Of the troublesome spouse is
not altogether convincing.
Miss cahill plays Betty quite Seriously
at times when the progress Of the play
demands 1t, but she does not pitch these
scenes in too strenuous a key and let's
things down with a laugh every time. on
the other hand a situation which Is actually
serious Is not spoiled thereby, because the
aughter il produced by droll or dry irony
and satire. At expressing exceedingly
delicate irony, Miss Cahill Is a grand past
mistress and here as elsewhere her efforts
are never forced. She produces the

maximum Of fun with the minimum Of ef-
fort.
There is q quartet of art loving youths
always in Betty's train and while all four
men in these parts were clever, Lucion
Kesney stood shoulders above the others.
Wallace M~cCutcheop, a baritone singer,
helped to score one Of the biggest successes
of the evening. when he and Miss Cahill
took off a mar and woman supposed to
be sitting in a box at the Metropolitan
Opera house. w. G.. Stewart played an
American, a southerner. and did not over
drawl or over-soften his RS" which is a
stage miracle.
OF the supporting women Miss Anne
Mooney has the principal singing role. She
is pretty. She sings correctly. sweetly and
has a voice Of some power. Miss Hattye
Fox was an attractive southern girl.
The staging as respect costumes is by
far the handsomest in a play OF the kind
here this year and the scenic investment is
absolutely lovely.
