Capacity Houses.

Capacity houses have been filling
the Gennett theater this week and
Miss Mae LaPorte and her excellent
company have surely been given a
warm welcome by their hosts of
friends here. Yesterday afternoon
there was standing room only even
the boxes were filled. The company
is one of the best organization of its
kind ever appearing in this city and to
many the week will be entirely too
short as each new bill is greeted with
pleasure by theater goers. Her Lord
and Master" was the bill yesterday
afternoon and evening and Miss La
Porte fairly captivated her audiences
by the manner in which she portrayed
her character.
1t would indeed be hard to select
any one actor as a star as all take
their parts in an unusually strong
manner The scenery being used this
week is new and Richmond people will
not see any of the old stunts SO often
pulled Off at a stock company. Ev-
erything is new and up to date and To-
cal people should be glad to have such
Ia company in the city.
This evening the company will play
something new, Miss Petticoats."
Seats may be procured at the box
office. Indications point to packed
houses today.

SALT WATER.
Deep Seas Are More Saline Than Those

Deep Seas Are More Saline Than Those
That Are Shallow.
Tho density of sea water depends
upon the quantity Of saline matter it
contains. The proportion Is generally
about or per cent, though it varies
in different places. The ocean con-
tains more salt in the southern than
In the northern hemisphere. and the
Atlantic contains more than the Pa
cific. The greatest proportion OF salt
in the Pacific Is In the parallels Of -
degrees north latitude and II degrees
south latitude. Near the equator it Is
less. and in the polar seas it is least.

makes the surface OF the sea fresher
than the interior parts, and the influx
of rivers renders the ocean less salt
at their estuaries.
Deep seas are more saline than those
that are shallow. and inland seas COM
municating with the main are less salt.
from the rivers that dow into them.
To this. however. the Mediterranean
is an exception. owing to great evap-

DOCTORS ENDORSE
NeWbro's Herpieide

brightens the hair, gives it life and
makes it soft
DR.. T. A. Moore, Duncan, Ariz.,

incessant. Since using Herpicide all
these evils have disappeared and my

force OF infantry. field artillery and
coast artillery, which will make up the
body Of troops for the defense of the
waterway. II has been felt that .
large appropriation would be required
for the construction of barracks and
quarters. and war department officials
have been engaged on a tentative plan
which would provide adequate sble-
ter for about 5000 troops.
II is intended to have the coast ar
tillery on duty in connection with the
Qualifications. These troops are like
~ to live in the neighborhod of their
guns. The other troops, which will
guard the canal and be used at any
place 1t becomes necessary to reeoel
INVASION will be concentrated at enc
station.
Conversion Of Present Buildings
The dwelling now occupied by the
engineers on duty with the canal c.on-
struction can be easily converted into
quarters for the commissioned officers
of the canal defense force. Other bull
dings occupied by clerks and other em
ployes can be used for barracks, with
little expense for fitting the mout Tor
