At Monday's weekly sale of United States cattle there were in the lairages 398 animals landed ex Pomeranian from New York, 308 ex Triton ia, trom Baltimore, and 414 ex Hi-1 ernian from Philadelphia, or a total offering of 1,178. As is generally the case, the greater proportion of the cattle consisted of bullocks. here weie also a few heifers and oxen included in the various consignments. Bulls weie carci-ly so numerous as they have been for week or two past. The attendance of buyers, both wholesale and retail, was a largo one, local and country purchasers being well represented.
The cattle all round were rather above the average in quality, the great preponderance of bullocks being animals hich were very meritorious in finish, while rougher finished beasts were comparatively scarce, forming only a small proportion of the supply. The few heifers on offer were exceptionally nice animals and showed well. The comparatively smaller Biipply of bulls was fully compensated for by the improve meet in quality, which showed an advance on recent markets. At the opening of the tale it was announced that the cattlo would not all be exposed, as it was intended to hold over a numbor until next week, and in consequence of the reduced offerings values advanced considerably. Bullocks of tho best lofts experienced a very sharp enquiry, and, with keen competition for them, high prices wore easily obtainable.
Plainer and heavier animals were not in f-o great request, and values for thorn were (lightly lower. Tho heifers sold dear. Oxon in good demand, and were readily cashed at satisfactory prices. Bulls, on account of (mailer offerings, were in better request than a week ago, and with fair competition for the they changed hands smartly.

It Ceylon the captial of England, and tie drama starts with the assumption that the Kirg of Siam has promised to marry Queen Victoria and has found it inconvenient to kerp this contract. The British Queen, accordingly, invades Siam in quest of breach of i remise damages, and there is a magni-ficrst scene ahich the Duke of Cambridge, whese youth is miraculously restored, has a terrific battle-axe combat with three Siamese er fairies. The English are defeated with a tremendous carnage, but then the King of Sifm relents, explanations are exchanged, and he leads, the blushing Queen Victoria to the altar, after all.

Only the ptet summer overtures came to her from an American manager wbioh insured a bt( fortune if she would consent to return to stage for a brief priod. There were six figures In the sniount stipulated, and the first figure was iiual to the total number of numerals in the whole But it had no effect upon her. She turned away from it easily and without an effort.
"No," she said, "I am through with the stago." And that was all. An Italian company is now playing The Taming of the Shrew at the Niccolini Theatre at Florence.

The play was secondary as an attraction to the desire to see Miss Russell in the habiliments of the male sex.
They were not disappointed says the Timvf critio. They saw her. There was no escaping that, except by closing one's eyes, it was impossible to avoid remembering Lady Jane's description of herself Not pretty massive." Mies Russell's exhibition of herself was generous and convincing. Beyond that there is little to be said of her performance. Sho wore shining satin and daziding diamonds, and she spoke her lines with her old familiar air of utter unbelief in thoir reality, As for her singiiig it may be said in extenuation that the was evidently suffering from a cold.

The London next morning made this comment: "Miss Ellen Terry plays the boy Mamilius with a vivacious precocity that proves her a worthy relative of her sister, Miss Kate." She first acted in Portia in April, 1871.
The women of Ohio propose to retaliate on the men who put the theatre hat law through the Legislature. It is their purpose to introduce a bill to make it a misdemeanor for men to go out between the acts and whoever is found spitting tobacoo juioe on the floor, will be hauled incontinently before the court of justice. The women who conceived this plan of vengeance are not sure that it will become a law, but think it will serve to show unrighteous and opresxive man that they are watching and are eager to ride to their revenge, When ia a woman old ia the last question to engage newspaper interest. It hss been asked of all the leading actresses in Germany, and tome of the replies are worth noting. Jenny Gross takes to the usual refuge that, "A woman is as old aa she looks."

Marie Ponpischill declares that "As leng as a woman believes in youth and clings to her youth she appears young even when she is not really so," and Marie Rsiseuhofur considers somewhat obscurely that "VYoraiD is old when she begins to love reason, and finds no love In return."

A Elff Meat Company's Business Last Year Details of Leading Markets. (From our own correspondent.) Liverpool, April 16. The ontbreaka of pleuro-pneumonia in Essex and Middlesex Lave drawn down upon the Board of Agriculture several queries as to their origin and source. The Department is fairly worried to death, and, being helplessly cornered," finds relief in making their replies to the pertinent questions as impertinent as the conventionalities of Parliament will admit. Vhen people who know something address searching questions, and are told that they evidently have not mastered the position of affairs," or" do not understand the facts'butreceive no enlightenment either es to the position or the facts, they be excused for wanting to know, yon know." Here- we have pleuro-pneumonia outbreaks in two centres, and how or whence they come no one knows, and while the Minister of Agriculture seeks to take advantage of them, by "accelerating" his Animals Diseases Bill, the opponents of same in the interests of Dominion shippers are anxious to make the outbreaks the medium for proving incon test-ably that the disease could not possible come from Canada.
While this contention is absolutely true, it makes no impression whatever upon the Board except, perhaps, to increase the irritation felt by that Department. The postponnient of the discussion in Committee on Mr. Long's bill, has been taken advantage of to add a few more amendments, but they are only variations of those already tabled. In the House of Commons, Mr." Price is the most active spirit leading the Opposition to the bill, an 1 his efforts to secure fair treatment for our Canadian cattle are worthy of all praise. In the general prets his action is highly commended, although, of course, by the agricultural protectionists he is viewed as one sworn to rain his cc*ntry.
Here are a few observations made by an East Anglian paper. THE KOBTOLK FARMERS AND CANADIAN CATTLE. Writing to the Eaulitrn Daily Exprm, a Farmer's Son gays the Norfolk agriculturists owe a deep debt of gratitudo to Mr. Trice, M.P., for the good service ho has done us in opposing the Government proposals to indiscriminately slaughter Canadian cattle on landing. As bearing out Mr.
Price's contention an to the disastrous effects of the order with regard to Norfolk, Mr. Charles Dewar, of Little Massingham, states in a Loudon contemporary that there are hundreds of acres of swedos in Norfolk this season that have no valuo, for the simple reason that graziers cannot go into our store stock markets to buy cattle to consume the roots, and afterwards re-sell the cattle' as beef at (id per lb. and under. Previous to the wasteful slaughtering order of Canadian cattle, farmers could buy these cattle, keep them a few months, and re-sell at a handsome profit, even at the low nrioe ct 6d per lb. for the nniehed article, uana-oian cattle, lean, bruised and battered, after a long sea voyage, are certainly not in proper condition to be killed for butchers' meat, which must prove bad for the consumer, and only benefit the dentist.
There are, however, no cattle, either English; or Irish, that will gain weight so fast on ewedes es Canadians, and it is certainly a great pity from every point of view to slaughter the whole indiscriminately on landing. It is a snub to our royal colony, and means hundreds of pounds loss to many Norfolk graziers. Mr. Dewar says that he has fed hundreds of Canadian bullocks, and never knew or saw an unhealthy one yot, to say r.i.- i ah noimng 01 me rnuun-uuaeu ui uuo uiyimuai contagious pleuro; and this is the experience of many a Norfolk man, who may well exclaim, that if the Cattle Diseases Bill is a sample of what is- to be expected from the professed friends of the farmer, then save us from our friends." EASTMANS (LIMITED). The Right Hon.
Lord Greville presided on J5th instant at the seventh ordinary general meeting of this Company at the Cannon Street Hotel, and in moving the adoption of the report, said that the results of the business during 1895 were not so good as they could have wished, which was accounted for by the tact that beef cost them in America on an average fully a farthing a pound more than in 1S'J4, whereas they could not get a corresponding advance in the selling price. In consequence of the high cost of cattle in the United 6tates, dressed beef shipments from that country fell off to 1,652,000 as compared with 1,776,000 and live cattle fell off to as compared with 38 1 ,000. On the other hand, Australia and the River Plate Bhipped to this country 4,089,000 cwt. of frozen beef, or an increase of 179,000 over 1894, thus making up for the deficiency in the shipments from the United States and CaunU. The River Plate and AuBtralasia also sent 142,000 live cattle, against 91,000.
The imports of sheep showed a great increase. Live sheep from all sources were 1,072,000, as compared with 480,000 in 1894, and the frozen carcases were 5,000,000, as compared with It would appear from these figures that there was au increase in the consumption of mutton and a reduced consumption of beef, due to the low price at which frozen mutton was sold. This Company handled in the United Kingdom about 25 per cent, of the chilled beef, and 1 1 per cent, of the frozen mutton, or, in other words, they sold, wholesale and retail, worth of imported meals here, and worth in America. In reply to a question, Mr. Thomson, Managing Director, said that bo far this year they had dene exceedingly well, and there was a good prospect of their paying a good portion of the arrears of the preference interest during tbj year.
There was still a great deal of competition, but they wore in a much better position to face it than they nsed to be. LONDON-ISLINOTOW. Monday's supply, compared with Monday Inst showed an increase of 440 head, chiefly due to heavier consignments from Scotland and Norfolk, and larger arrivals of fat shed cows from suburban districts. For fat beasts trade was very slow, rates haying to be reduced 2d per bib. to effect sales, at which reduction a clearance could not be made.
Fat -hed cows were in better demand by country buyers, and there was an upward tendency in value, but higher rates were prevented by the larger number on offer. Fat bulls were again very unsaleable. There was an in-create of 6,800 in the number ot sheep and lambs penned, the supply including 230 Scotch and 5,980 from Nor-folk, Suffolk, and Kssex, For wether sheep, on account of the large supply, trade throughout was very slow at a decline of 2d per 8 the finish being extremely dull. Good young ewes were scarce and in request at slightly higher rates, a steady demand was met for lambs, but late rates could inly in exceptional cases be maintained, the hulk of the rules taking plaoe at a roddotion of 2d per 8 lb. On Thursday there was 2,500 sheep and lambs shown, but after the few early sales to country dealers hardly any business was done.
The colder weather chocked we demand for lamb, butt veal was in bettor request, and some good calves mado up to 8J and 8Jd (16o to Kilo per Compared with Monday's prices a decline on mutton of nearly Jd per lb. must be noted, Only 33 beasts out of 115 were brought Into the market, LOKDON-DKI'TITOKI), Monday's supply, numbering 3,088, com-pared with Monday last, shuwod an In create of 205 cattle, and consisted of 1,997 from the Slates and 1,091 from South America. These, however, did not Include 'What a fad thing is the decay of a popular play. Recall The Two Orphans," when, in all its glory of a great cast, it was produced at the Union Square Theatre, New ork. In thote days the most popular of New York favorites were in it Charlie Thome, Kittie Blanchard, McKee Rankin, Fannie Morant -nd Kate Claxton was more than 25 years younger than she is to day.
What a production it was when it was first put on at the Boston, muses the Herald, dramatic writer, and even the 1879 cast at the Museum is remembered with respectful interest, with Charles Barron and Willie Seymour as the Frochaid brothers, with Joseph Ha worth, John Mason, Melliource McDowell, Annie Clark, May Davenport, Mrs. Vincent, Georgia Tyler and Sadie Martinot in the cast. Yet in the past 10 years the play has become shabbier and shabbier. Every season it has returned to town, passing from one theatre to another, down the grade, getting out at the knees, out at the elbows, and hert handed and common. This once smart production is to-day a sight as depressing as the rpectacleof a once beautiful woman whom dirsipation and riotous living has ruined.
Twenty-five years older, it has become dirty as well as decrepit and those who saw its last production here were simply heart broken and indignant. Jim, tho Penman" declined much more rapidly. Thia play will not pass the 10th anniversary of its first production in America in November, 1886 until autumn. Yet it has already been to the cheap theatre. This drama suffers even more frem being ill-dressed and poorly acted than The Two Orphans." The latter is an out-and-out melodrama.
"Jim, the Piussan'1 is a melodrama pretending to lie a society play. Fallen into shabbinuss, its pretences are all cruelly unveiled. There will never be such a thing possible as reviving that play. One is almost inclined to think that play luckier that dies a natural death and is buried decently in the dust of the theatre library's shelf than is the one that expiies lingeringly, and is stared at curiously in all its pitiful, poverty-stricken old age, as the most profitable plays are apt to be. Sarah Bernhardt, in talking with a reporter of a French newspaper, said 1 intended to give thousandth representation of the Dame aux Cameliis' ia Paris, after my return from America.
It now lacks only about 38 or 40 to reach that figure. My dream was to have the aufiTor present, but, unfortunately, no one nan read dostinie. I atked Dumas one day if it was true that he was about to give a favorable reply to the request of the Francais toaddtht 'Dame aux Camelias' to its repertoire. He snid The role of Margurite Oantier is bound to be plnyed by you for a long tims. The peace will finally, no doubt, belong to the Theatre Francais, but it must ai-t untU it becomes old and classic, if that word is not too big for it.
Then it must be played with the costumes of the period, and not as they play it now, wilh costumes ot the latest And this opinion of Dumas brings to my mind this little incident. It happened at the Varieties during the exposition of 1889. We were rehearsing the Dauieaux Caiaolias' with the author. Ilamala'played the part of Aimand Duval. In the, scene in the fourth act, where the quarrel breaks out between him and M.
de Varville, Dumas interrupted Damala and said to him: Just there you should go through the motion of buttoning your coat. As a matter of fact, you should button it. Fechter always did You will have to excuse me, replied Damala, laughing, but our coat do not button now. Fashion has ohanged all You are said Dumas, and he added 'I still fancy that I'm only Nevertheless, the master was right," continued Mme. Bamhardt, when he said that one day or another it would be necessary to play the Dame aux Camelias' with the costumes of the period.
This notion of the author I will realize on the evening of the thousandth performance of his immortal chief d'oeuvre. VTe will all play with the costumes of the time. The attraction will be double for those who were at the first representation of that play of the Vaudeville in 188.2. Qhey can compare the two representations after 44 years of interval." The New York Comntreud Advtrtmr has this to say about aa old-time Montreal favorite Your Canadian is nothing if not patriotic. Borne two weeks ago I wrote a paragraph about Harry Lindley, a comedian, who is charged with pirating plays in Canada.
It happens that I knew Lindley pretty well years ago, and I concluded my remaiks about him by saying that I have often wondered why so talented an actor as Lindley is satisfied to barnstorm in Canadian settlements, producing other people's plays, and smarting under the brand of I added But I suppose there is money ia it. I am only sorry to know that so good a man has gone To this the Belleville (Canada) IiUtUigtn-eer, with characteristic loyalty to Canada and its comedians, retorts aa follows Harry, we may tell G. C. does not 'barnstorm' in Canadian settlements, but plays in good towns, such as Belleville, Hamilton, Brandford, Woodstock, where the people are much more intelligent and better educated than those of any portion of the United States even the groat cosmopolitan city of New York, which G. J.
graces with his presence. Harry is an Englishman and a Conservative in Canada, and a good actor, and not a bad fellow, and mayhap pirates Yaukee plays. If so, he only spoils the spoiler, as he may, by rending their prey fium the most impudent gang of literary pirates in the With such endorsem*nt, oonclnded the Commercial Advtrtmr, "we wonder why Harry Lindley remains unregenorate." George Eogels, the German comedian, arrived in New York on Sunday week In the steamship La Bourgogne. Engels made hi American debut on Thursday night at the Irving Place Theatre New York as Senator in Schoenthau-Kadelburg's faroe, "Der Horr Senator." His engagement is limited to two weeks, after which he will appear one night in Chicago and three nights in Milwaukee. Georg Engels was born on January 12, 1846, in Altona, near Hamburg.
His father was prompter at the famous Hamburg Thalia Theatre. He made his first professional appearance at the Woltersdorf Theatre, in Berlin, in 1870. Two years later he was engaged as eomudian for the Wallner Theatre, to alternate with Uelmord-ing, who at that time was the favorite player in Berlin. It did not take Engels long to monopolize the all'eetion of his audience, which soon led to the retirement of Hclmerding. Engels's farewell performance was attended by the highest aristocracy of Berlin, and the German Emperor personally expressed bis sorrow to see him depart fiom the German capital.
Herr Engels is under contract for a month each year in St. Petersburg, which he said was a German oity almost. The Alexander Theatre, in the Rufslsn capital, is annually converted into a German playhouse during the Russian Lenton season, and for these performances he has a standing engagement. The series just enda i has netted the management over 30,000 rubles. John Hare it to visit America again, and has Montreal on his list, Charles i'roliman, of New Yoik, has made the arrangement, which will include au engagement at the Garrick Theatre, lasting almost thtough the next winter.
Mr. Hare's present tour has been so successful that it will be extended to the middle of May, and the fact of this surceM made it possible for Mr. Frohman to induce him to forego his regular season at his own theatre in London, so that be might be able to make a long stay at the Garrick here. 1 hiring hit tour ho will appear In the Robertsonisa plays with which his name is moat closely associated on the other side.

The approximate deadweight quotations may be givtn as follows: Bullocks, best quality, medium weight, 54s per and up to 5bs per cwt. for choice; heavy prime, 42s to 53s; and rougher and plainer, 60s to 52s per cwt. while tho bulla realized from 35s to 40s per according to quality and finish all the quotations marking an advance of those ruling last week.
At the conclusion of the suction there were about 300 animals ex-Hibernian held over until the next sale A BALE OF AMERICAN SHEEP was afterwards held, there being on offer 1,05 landed ex Tritonia from" Baltimore. Compared with 1,514 last week and 1,454 in the preceding week, the supply showed a decrease of 9 and an increase of 51 respeo -lively. The offering consisted entirely of merino hoggs of a handy sort, and were presented in a well finished condition. The attendance of buyers was a large one, and included both local and country dealers. As the supply of sheep for a week or two passed has barely sufficed to satisfy the requirements of the trade, a good demand was experienced, and values realized were fully up to those ruling at previous sale.
The prices per head were slightly down from those obtained last Tuesday, due to all the Bhecp'bcen clipped, less being thus obtainable for the akuiB. The sheep sold all round from 27s to 31s Gd each, aud down to 24s 3d, or from Gd to 7d per lb, A smart clearance was easily effected. UVKRrOOL AND BIRKENHEAD, On Monday, at Stanley, there were a few morecalUe in the market. Demand was good for prime quality, and prices about the some as UBt week. The sheep supply was rather smaller, and' demand fair rather better prices.
Good lambs also in demand. Beef, 6d to4id; Scotch mutton, 9d to GJd; Irish, 8d to Gd per lamb; lambs, 45s to 21s each. At market, 701 cattle and and lambs. At Birkenhead we have had what you might call a good beef trade compared with the business of last couple of weeks, and yet the highest price touched for choice bodies was UJo probably wis made for one or two extra nice. The demand from tho country was pretty fair, and alto for the London market, hut buyers for the lat ter were very hard to please there was nothing good enough for them.
Our fhecp trnde was best of alt, and forynuug sheepthey call them lambs here, but they were lambs last year we had as steady a demand as could be wished. Buyers were pot crazy, by any means, but sales were made here that meant all ot to 14c per pi ices not seen for a long time. Yesterday's (Friday) trade was weaker, but the back end is always duller. Including some 400 on hand, tho numbers in sight for ensuing week foot up 4,700 cattlo, and close in good shape. Whether prices will hold up or not is bard to say, but the general expectation is they wilL The Magazine Exploded.
