“The Private Secretary.”
The performance of “The New Private
Secretary” at the Academy of Music last
night by the company under the manage,
ment of Mr. £dwin Travis, was a well
studied and satisfactory presentation
This work of Mr. Wm. Gillette author
of “Held by the Enemy,” "All the Com
forts of Home,” “Mr. Wilkinson's
Widows” and other equally successful
plays, is one of the most popular come
dies now upon the boards, as tbe excep
tionally long run it had in Xow York
and other cities demonstrates. Unllko
the unwholesome productions of French
writers, which have administered to a
morbid and unduly stimulated taste
which grows by what it feeds upon, the
witnessing of “The Private Secretary”
leaves no sting behind—no unpleasant
after-taste. Tho whole cast of charac-
tors is good and tho leading part, the
Rev. Robert Spaulding, as performed by
William Fairbanks, Harry Eytlnge as
Cattermole, Edwin Travers as Douglass,
Miss Bertha Livingston as Miss Ashford,
Violet Black as Edith, and Nelly Whit
ing as Miss Stead, was very ably done.
Mr. Fairbanks was immensely funny an!
the rounds of laughter and enthusiasm
he provoked, proved his superior ability
as an accor, and wo aro free to say a
better has seldom appeared on the stage.
—Daily Xews, Hagerstown.
Condition of the Cotton.
The general weather summary for tho
cotton belt for last week, issued from
the New Orleans office, says: The
weather conditions in the cotton belt
show a considerable deficiency through
out, in precipitation, except over a few
scattered points in North Carolina,
northwestern Georgia, western Alabama
and along the Texas coast. Tho drongbt
in Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas and
western Tennessee and tho greater por
tion of Texas still continues. The tem
peratures wore generally below the nor
mal, except in northern Louisiana,
southwestern Arkansas and northern
and central Texas, where an excess of
from 2 to -4 degrees occurred.

Three little questions, and yet
tbay concern us aU—concern you
personally—especially the “cook
ing of it"—concerns you whether
you are hearty or delicate—of ep
icurean or of careless tastes—
healthy or dyspeptic—you eat—
that is, you ought to eat, and you
want to know “How will they cook
it ?’*
Cook it on a stove, of course,
bat there are other questions—
Have you a stove ? aud “Have you
a Good Stove ?—ask yourself this
question, ask your neighbor this
question, and let this tell you both
that Butler & Berry have stoves—
hove good stoves too—that’s the
only kind they have, or are going
to have.
Have you ‘caught on’ to the'lat
est stove conveniencies ? Have
you seen the latest wnrmingjovens
and hot water reservoirs ? Do
you appreciate convenient racks,
shelves, grates, etc.? Do you know
much about a stove ?
You know there are ttoves and
stoves and stoves—some are mere
ly stoves, some others are really
good stoves and then again, some
are the best stoves made. Let us
ask you two more questions: Will
you want a stove ? Won’t you
want the best stove made ? Now
we let the subject hang right there
and
You ore cordially invited to call
at the Artesian Corner, to see onr
line of stoves, whioh are strictly on
their merits—open to comparison,
both as to desirability and price—
with every other stove on tho
market. You are not only invited
to coll and see, bat we think it’s
your turn now and we invite you
to call and ask ‘ questions.”—In
