THE MINSTRELS.
Barlow, Dotson and Powers Give a
Good Performance.
The season at the Academy of IMuslc
was opened last night with Barlow,
Dolson and Powers before the foot
lights. or rather where the footlights
should have been .but owing to dlfil-
culiy whh the gns imdn supplying the
Academy of Music with gas there were
pnlcl'tiUVy no lights In the house ex
cept u few tallow candles purchased for
tin occasion.
Notwithstanding the darkness, how
ever, the performance pleased the
crowd, and that was all the company
proposed to do. The crowd wua not us
largo ns was expected for the opening
night and a good attraction, but was
fair for a mlnatrel performance.
Tlio overture wa* at considerable dis
advantage on locount of the poor
lights, which detracted from Its spec
tacular eft eel, but the singing, dancing
and music were abovo tho average.
George Wilson of courno kept the crowd
with him, and they enjoyed him Just
the same ns they did the George of
?. l . ht t r , < »?«•, The single*; of Tam Mack,
VV, Fuller. Howard Powers, James Da
vis. Stilt Barlow and W. A. Want wag
very good, while the dancing of the
Higgins 'brothers was Immense. Seme
of the JukCK were a little hoary, but
most of them were new and made the
audience laugh. On the whole the per
formance can ibe summed up as good.

RACES YESTERDAY.
How the Horses Ban at Bhoepshead Bay
Race Track.
Sheepflhead Bay, Aug. 31.—Th!« was very
much of aa oft day here, tbe card, al
though In prolific number*, showing a
dearth of quality. The surprise of the day
was the result of the first race In which
Correction was defeated by SoncncU. to
say that the ring wa• hit hard would In
putting It mildly. The golden rod stakes
was captured by Havoc, the favorite.
TIPS FOB TODAY.
The following ate the New York Mercu
ry's selections for the Bheepeneod Bay
races tomorrow:
First IU.7C.—Galilee, Luther. Correction.
Second Race.—Brandywine, The Sage,
Applause.
Third Race.—Domino, Victorious, Du
cat.
Fourth Usee.—Harry Reed,, Cromwell,
Ur&ntau
Fifth Race.—Patrician, Feacemd'fcr, Bsfc
demerc. . ■
Sixth Race.—Wattersoh,, Live Oak, Jack
Rose.
IN THE PAVILION. {
There was a break In the monotony yes
terday. A slight change in the pro
gramme. The favorites didn't have every
thing their own way, for the first time
since the Coney Island meeting opened.
Think of It! No man's turf experience
can produce anything to match the mar.
volous showing of "true form" that has
been jnade at the track by. the sea. Five
first choices out of six—six out of seven!
In’fact there has been such a continuity
of winning favorites that the book makers
In the ring have hoisted signals of dire
distress. Some-have already gone over
the dead line. Other some are trembling
on the ragged edge of bankruptcy. All
are filled with despondency and dismay.
But how It is with the wide-awake tnl-
ent/They are jubilant)and prosperous—
flourishing like the proverbial green bay
tree. In the battle royal waged so suc
cessfully against the ring, thetr spoils
have been immense. The.estimated value
of the golden harvest reaches the hun
dred thousand mark several times over.
Bnough to make them Jeel gay, you bet.
Indeed there are Instance* of men becom
ing real frivolous with less incentive.
But the beauty of it la the "bookies" are
a game act and won't say die. The bat
tle goes on nnd the Jockey club keeps
sending out curiU that make the specula
tor’s mbuth w ner. They can't get enough
of 'em. bm.ill wonder that the pavilion
is tijam almost every dmy. Rich stakes,
with the best horses in training, under
meet skillful Jockeyshlp to continue for
them. That's the bill presented this Sat
urday afternoon ond /don't you know
there'll be great sport-and plenty of ex
citement? -t •

Atlanta Exposition:
Whereas, The Cotton Suites and In-
ternaUo'iral ExpoRtU'ja to he held In
Aum'.a, O.i., in Khe year 1893, tssln our
opinion an undertaking deserving the
earnest and emthuslhstlc support of nil
corporations and individual® In the
South, and more particularly In the
suite of Georgia, and.
Whereas, The Macon Exposition
Company was organised for the ex
press purpose of fur*thferlng the Inter
ests of the South, the suite of Georg.a
and Macon, and all of width wilt be
■largely benefited by the Cotton. States
and InKteTnUtlonal Exposition of 1895;

Resolved further, That the Macon
Exposition Company urges upon the
people of town and country through
out the stare ot Georgia, laying aside
nil preudlce and sectlona# feeling, to
Jotn with Atlanlra to the grand work
so well begun. Thus, with one great
united effort, the South, observed of
all 'nations and of ui'.l people, will end
her thirty years' struggle for commer
cial tuna agricultural supremacy and
■take her proper place as the most pros
perous section of 'fills great, country.
Resolved further. Than iwe pledge

TEXAS COTTON CROP. '
Frequent Rains Have Dane Damage to
the Staple In North Texas.
Galveston, Aug. 31.—The News, after
giving the dates of planting in the
different sections of the state and the
conditions of tho young plant, says:
The crop grew oK nicely during May
and suffered only slight local damages
from hall aud washing In north Texas.
At the close of May cotton was reported
well ft'orked nnd iu excellent condition
anil that 'early planted was blooming.
Heavy local rains dkl some damage to
cotton over cuntiul Texas the 1st of
June, but general rains greatly im
proved the crop throughout the state.
Cotton had commenced bloom,itg aud
forming squares by the middle ot .time.
The weather was generally favorable
for the growth of the crop during July
und picking had commenced In some
localities by the end of that month.
The weather during August wits about
what was needed lor the crop over the
northwest part of the state, while over
the southeastern half of tho state
rather too much rain fell ami picking
was delayed throughout, this seet.on
anti the cotton slightly damaged by tho
wet weather. Worms ami rust are re
ported from a few localities, but so tar
no material damage has resulted from
these sources.
RETURNING PROSVERITY.
Three-fourths of Those Idle a Year Ago
Are Workitug Now.
Chicago, Aug. 31.—It Is estimated by
Joseph Grueuhut, statistician of the
health department, that three-fourths
of the working people who were out of
employment a year ago uro now earn
ing wages.
Uo bases his estimates on the reports
made by tho factory inspectors, al
though he has made no careful com
parison of figures. Tho litle wage-,
workers In the city last September, ac
cording to Gruenhut, were not less
than 100,000. The dopresslon following
the boom of May nnd Julio, 1MK1, con
tinued Ob til recently, but u steady re
turn of workingmen and woman to tbelr
regular avwations has since been no
ticeable, aud now not more than fio.OOO
of the 100,000 ore out of work.
There are, Uo says, 800 tailor shops
In operation In the city now, as com
pared with half that number last win
ter. This !s a fair Indication of the
change wfMt the Industrial situation
Is uudcrgulug.
