Mr. Bennet Matlack, in the role of 'Jesu Ilenand," while differing in some respects in the rendition of the character, dees not fall yery far behind James O'Neil, Chas. Coghlao, and other well known stars that have appeared before Indianapolis audiences. Tbe support is a strong one, and the play one of the most sensational of the famous French author, D'Ennery. Cheap prices will rule at this engagement, giving all an opportunity to attend. 'UKCLK TOM'S CABIX' AT THK ORA5D. The regular theatrical season haying closed &t the Grand Opera House, Manager Dickson turnout ces that he will now present his patrons and friends, during the short supple xatniary season to follow, a number of firstclass stan dar a attractions, at people's popular pricts ten and twenty cents, This.be believes, will meet with the approbation of sUl, and he pledges his personal and professional reputation to furnish a better class of attractions than have ever before played in Indianapolis at such unheard of prices. For the week: opening to morrow eveniag, smd continuing six nights, with daily matinees, Mr. S. Draper's "Grand Spectacular Uncle Tom's Cabin" Company has been engaged. This is, by all odds, the largest and jbest company ever organized for the presentation of this time-honored play. Though Harriet Beecher Btowe great romance has been drancatized and played to more peoDle and do ring a greater number of seasons than, perhaps, any other drama on the American cttge, yet it has such a hold on the affections of the public that to day any presentation of It is witnessed by as large audiences as when it first appeared a candidate for public favor. 8. Draper's "Uncle Tom's Cabin" party is raid to be a cleyer company, not only from the fact that it is the tioeat spectacular presentation of the play, but also bacause it is a mammoth double company in every particular. There will be two Top3i6s," two "Lawyer Maiks" and two donkeys. Miss Kate fartirgton, the most famous "lopsy" ii the trcrid, has bsen specially engaged, and will appear at each entertainment, intrcd icing feer great specialties, eoogs, dances and banjo tolos. Mr. Sam Bolter, the representative "Uncle Tom" of America, will a'so appear. Ore of the greatest features of the entertainment is apac of genuine Siberian bloOvlhcundf. Thess animals are fall-blooded anc? extremely large and savage. Never before has "Uncle Tom's Cabin" teen promised under such splendid spectacular effects. All the srenery is new and elegant. Ia the act where "Eliza" etcapes across the frozan Ohio River from the bloodhounds in a driv ing snow storm the situation is thrilling in the extreme. 'In Heaven, or the Bsautiful Gate3 Ajar," lhe allegorical scene in the last act, is exquisitely entrancing, and represents 'Little Eva" transformed into an angel, and standing in the golden gates of the Celestial City with a dainty smile cn her cherub face, and with out-stretched arms welcoming "Unc'e Tom" to heaven. Anothsr pleasing feature is the original Tennessee Jubilee singers who appear at each performance in a grand plantatioa festival. He member the prices are only 10 and 20 cents. Two performances daily. TUX DIME MCSEUM. The Keane Comedy Company, one of the best sketch organizations on the road, made a decided hit at this popular pi see last week, und la view cf which fact Manager Ssckett engaged the company for another week. A change of bill, however, will bs made, Mr. Keane appearing this week In his great imSersonation of 4 Solon Shingle," supoorted y his cxcellect company. While Mr. Kane may not be equal to the eminent comedian, John E. Osrens, in the past, helsouly second t3 that distinguished artist. The piece will fca pat on with espec'al care, and the periormsnce will be first-class in all respects. In addition to the comedy the stage progtunrne will embrace other excellent features, mainly Rice and Barton, who are unquestionably C23 cl tbe best socially teams on tbe stage In tbeir line. They will appear in an act never before seen here, and it is highly entertaining tnd amoslng. Sheridan and Flynn. an Irish team, and new faces in Indianapolis, will be seen in a pleasing future, and Mr. James Riley, recsntly at the ÄIcseum, will re appear, presenting new esrgs, danres and specialty business." Mr. XUley has but few equals in his line and has always been a strong card. In Curiosity Ball all of the features of last week will remain, and to thun some new ones will be atMfd. Altogether the show is about the best rmented by Manager Sackett this seaton and large business is assured. THE ZOO.

The vt'ible supply did not show so lar.se a titcrease as had teen expected and forced da upleg oa country account, and short" selling by such constitutional bars as Jones, William Murry and Webber caused something of a sajr. T en a spell of cold, wet weather gave the "crop killera" a good chance to expatiate on their pt?t bull theory, and indeed tbe news did come in gloomy enough, reports bein worse than anv previously received.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
An Entertaining Iiadget From thd National Captlfal. Picture nod Sketche of Professor tic Donaid, Congressman L)inaa and Fish CouixlMiootr Uaird. Washisoton-, May 8. Fish culture has teen a subject of a good deal of attention in Washington this week. The town has been fall cf fish enthusiasts, not fhh catchers, bat those who lcok with much broader and more philanthropic views upoa and into the sabjeet. It is a bacd cf men who have by their efforts and untiling persistence and study added millions of dollars cf value to the food supply cf the country each year for the past decade, and developed a system which is to furniih to the peoj-le of the country, ths maiser, a great fcod supply which was heretofcrelcst, oimply because tbe natural advantages were allowed to go to waste for want of intelligent atteatloa. The United States Füll Cultural Association is the name of this society which numbers among its members the most earnest and valuable advocates of th!a Important enterprise which has added so mnch to the value of the fisheries of the United State in the past few years. Its organization was. sirgalarly -enoagb, coincident with the first national efforts for tbe cultivatioa and iraUction of the tUh interest! of TROFESSOP. BAIP.D. the country. It is but little over a decade since the work of systematic and intelligent protection of the nah and fisheries of the country and the cultivation of this important feature cf natural food supply beaa. The work has in the mesntime enlisted the active support of many men of prominence and intellectual activity, who see in it great possibilities in the way of food supply for the masses at small cost. Not onlv is this the esse with such men as Professor Baird, of tbe Smithsonian Institute, who has been place! in especial charge of the work, Maj or Ferguson, the Assistant Commissioner, and Prole! sor McDonald, who is in especial charge of the Division of Propagation, but it has been warmly and Intelligently supported by private citizens, scientific men and students cf three subjects which relate to the practical development of the pnjsical leäoarcea of tne Nation. Tnis is the explanation of the presence in Washington this week of the Unite! States Fish Cultural Association and the surprising revelations ia regard to (i.-h and fish culture that its meetings have broaght to ths surface. The association contains among its rxe rubers some of the most distinguished men of the country, statesmen and scientists Hon. Theodore Lyman, member of Cong res frcm Massachusetts, who is an enioent naturalist and student of political economy, is the President of the association, and has remained here sines the close of- the session of Congress, enjoying the delights of springtime in Washington and waiting for the annual meeting of this eociety. Nearly all members of the Fish Commission are a'so members of this so?:etr, and the two associations work in entire accord and pro re mutually ad vantsgeous and of great benefit to tbe country. Professor Baird, the head of tie Fish Commission, Professor McDonald, and indeed, all those taking part in the werk here, have watched tha proceedings with great interest. "The fact is," said Professor McDonald, talking to jour correspondent, as he satin his cczy iibraiy at his home, "we are just spproachiDg tho time when we are to see some of the finita of the work that we have been doing. This subject of fnh culture was practically new when we b?gan it. ho far as its practical apoiicttion to national systems was concerted. It is something over a decsde since the work was begun, bat re cusarily mach cf the earlier work was in the Vfsy of experiment, a.id some of our time aid coxcr.rssMAN lyman. money and labor was entirely lost in miking these experiments not lost as to final re suits, but it did not bring immediate returns. For Instance, when we began our study of the batching of fish by artificial methods, it ccet v00 to prcduce a million young white fih;cowwo prcdace them fcrfj). And this is only an instance of what the study of the subject by our commission, with the aid cl thi? a.s:ciition arjd tha State cocimia aienn. has accomplished." "Do most of the States have fish commisaiors. also, then?" "Oh, yes. The people throughout the country are beginning to realize the importance of this subject, and see how valuable a food supply was being lost heretofore, and are taking an interest in th8 mav.ter. Yes, most of tbe States have their fish commissions now, and are giving more or less attention to the protection acd cultivation of fiih." "And are yoa teeicg any practical resalts jet?' "Oh, j es. The prodnctioo of strea-ns where the work has been carried on has been doublt d, and the fishermen of tbe great lakes say that but for tbe work of oar system onehalf cf them would have been obliged to seek clhe-r emp'oyment. Of course the mere fsctof furnishing employment to a large number cf people is something, bat te greater feature is that while doing so we have so greatly increased the natural food supply of the country.'' 'But wan't that being supplied by natural methods? ' "No. Tbe growth of business and population was destroying the fish yery fast. The establishment of dams along the streams prevented the fish from coming in from the sea to reach their spawning grounds, and enab'e persons to catch them in enormous quantities as they gsithered below the dams in their rain efforts to reach those places. Bo they were not only prevented from reaching their custom a tt processes bat wer belnsr actaalrWT destroyed by the whslccils, swept cat ct ex

istecce. Take the Connecticut River. fo instance. The catch of salmon there used to be eomelhing enormous, and was the bst stnamfcr tbsprodaclion as wellastbecttchleg of fish. Well, somedsms were built across It, th9 fish gathered below at the time they were accustomed to go to the spswain grounds, and were caught in immeuss numbers, and the result was that iaafew years there was not a single salmon ia this whicu bsd been the finest salmon stream in ths ccuntry. Another canse.of the destruction of the fish was the establishment of manufacturing establishments on the streams, which polluted the waters and either killed or drove out the fish. Without intelligent protection and assistance by artiii:ial culture, the magnificent opportunities of this country to produce millions and millions of dollars worth of rich, nutritive meat fool for themselves would be lost " "To what part of the country are yoa ssndiEzfish?" "To all parfs There is not a Congressional D.'strict cr Territory in the country, and bat very few counties, into which we hive not sent more or les." 4,And do these fnh thrive whea thsy are transported to new waters and new climats?" "Yis," in mcst cases. We loitsonisia the attempt to transfer the west coast salmon to the ce3tera rivers. The climate and water were too severe: bat as a rule our fish thrive. Themost remarkable instances of the gdsptability of I'nh to new climate aad new surroundings is in the case of the German carp. There were a few years a;o none of these ii$h in this coantry; now there is not a Congressional District or Territory that hsn't some of them. We have distributed them to thoasands of parties in the different parts of the coantry. Their tenacity cf life is wonderful. People receiving tleni write us, even whsn neglected greatly, thty thrive and increaie very rapidly. Oaly a few years ago we imported thirty IWe Of man carp to this country tostcck it Now I me&ume there are hundreds of millions of tbeni. Not that we have sent oat so many as that, but they thrive and increase wonCerfully. They seem to do well everywh?re, no natter what tha climate or sarrouadIdes. Tbe mcst wonderful thing abat tlem is that they will live and thrive in tbe alkali waters of Arizona and that ccuntry where heretofore not a 11 h ex'sted.. I he people who are exparnenticg with them write us very eatbusie;tically of their success. Thy are very much gratiii?d over the prcspaot of P'ovidins ths fih!csi country with fish. TLeD, too, take Texas and the other eectiors where there is a scarcity of water. They have a habit ia these countries of constriding a huga dam acroaj the ravines to Cstrh the water that gatheis af:er a etorm, at d keep it for tdock. The-e tacks, as they aie called, are very Urgf, covering many acres and sufficiently large to keep them8?lves purified. The carp ard other fish are b-irg put into them, and ars doing well there, eo that this section, where there were no fih heretofore, ia row producing fine leri :e fish and an excellent food supply for a ccuntry that had heretofore been dependent open beef and pors; for meat food." "How many fish Las the commission distributed since its work was began in 1S72?" "Between COO.000,000 and GQ0 0JOOO0. Thea ttere will be anout 150,000.000 to add to this year's work. This of course only shows a small proportion of the result, for while 60O.0OO.GD0 are a gcod many the number must bs multiplied many times to give any estimate- of ths number of fish there are now in the streams as compared with what there would have

been but for this work. Wh?n the fish are fa r y established in the steams thsy inciea e in nambprs by the natural process with wonderful rapidity. Take the New Hi v r in Virginia for instance. Afewyeirs ag there wasn't a bass in this streun. Nobody thought of liming there for bass. There were a few catfish and suckers, bat that was all. He began to stock it with a few bi33, and the people outside, tbe sportsmen, began to fitd cut that it was n good fishing ground. The result is that it :s visited every year now by la-e numbers cf tbe is sportsmen, who spend their tnonoy freslv aiaoug the people living ia that s3ction, csd ho unite in pronouncing Ne?r PJver the b:st bass fishing grouudj !a the entire coantry. It 7S3 qnjtfl funny, tco, ths way we caught the Tub with which we stocked this river. Tkey were in a habit ct congregating below a certain dam in tbe stream where ws caught them, trying to mske their wty to the spawning grounds. Efforts were made to catch them with a net, but withoat success. They were very smart. They would always jump 07er the net as it gathered about them. They got so they knew the shadow cf a net as soon as it appeared closing about them, and away they woild ja -up 07erit. Sjwe concluded to try straUge n. We tock a tosr-bsat and rowed quietly a'oog with !h side of the boat toward tbe ehoai of fieb, ard they, mistaking i's shadow for that cf a ret comiDg over them, beran ta jump to try to jump over the net. and jumping ovar the of the bot lauded inside of it, and were picked up. It is the progeny of these who jarcjed over into the boat thitare makirg New river the best fishing groands ia ths country." "What is the valae of the annus! fish production cf this country now?

There is nothing a true mother considers too great to bo undertaken where lhe interests of her little ones are concerned, but there are obi'acles she tai not surmount.

Carriage by csptare was a favorite method of getting a wife in the old days when wives were valuable for the work they did as slave3, and there are eome reasons for believing that, at ecme time or other, it has been piecticed by nearly all nations. The Romans undoubtedly uted this method of providing themselves with help-meets in that little atfair with the Sabines, and historical evidences exist to show that the Greeks were fqcally unscrupulous. In Australia, among the natives, the gallant lover provides hlmf elf with a good, stout club and waits in the bushes near tbe home of bis Dalcina t il she is unpro'ected, when he knocks her down with the club and carries her o3 oa his Shoulders before she recovers enough to make resistance. This is taken as a matter of course, and so well established ia the custom among these savages that it ia played as a game among children.

AND THE LOWEST Ml: Nfe b!e eapluie cf a wife, the ceremony of c ipture remained, as such things do, long a'ter the significance had departed. In his book on Central Asia Campbell eats that, "On one occaiioa I heard load cries from a village clcee at hand, and fearing sme quarrel, rede to the spot, and there saw a man leaning on his back something covered with a large ecarlet cloth; he was sarroaaied by twenty or ttirty joang fellows, aad by them protected frcm the desperate attacks made by. a lare r.umber cf yoangwooaeo. On seeking aa explanatioa ot this nivel Fcte, I was told that tha man had just tetn n anit d, and hia kurdea was his bride.waoa be was conveying to hia own village. ilr friends, es is tbe custom, were seeking t) re gain pc895jicn cf her. and hurled sticks and ttonet at the head of the devoted groom till he reached the confines of his owq village. Throughout nearly all Cea'ral As a ecme relics ot this custom are f on ad, simetircrs the bride being mounted on honebick, and the would-be eroom forced to rids after her, sometimes the suit being pressed by means cf a foot race, and sometimes the c istorn takirg tbe form of a regular scutlie between tbe parties to the contract Amoig the Tartar tbe marriaze is always celebrated by a mam fight between the groom's frieais and the friend3 of ths bride. A French aathcrity gives the fallowing recelrtfora transrarent cement which poseeeees great tenacity and has not the slightest jellow tinge. Mix ia a well stoppered bottle 10 drams of chloroform with 101 i drams of non-vulcanized caoutchouc cut in small pieces. Solution Is resdilv effected, aad when it Is completed add 211 drams of mastic. Let the whole macerate from eight to ten days without the application of any heat, and sbafce tbe contents ot the bottle at intervals. A perfectly white and very adhesive cement is the result.
