MULES AND NEWSPAPERS. A Boy. Bnidle of Papers aad a Vale Save Time.

A route carrier on an evening paper proceeding on his route last night near the Third district school house, corner of Third and Farrington streets, attempted to shift his papers from one arm to the other, when a sudden and terrific gust of wind caught the bundle from his grasp, blew open the papers and sent them pellmell over a street car male team. The mules were unprepared for a manifestation of this kind and accordingly whirlsd around, dragged the car off the track across the street and jammed it with its occupants into the gutter.

Three men who had been tossed about inside of the car like light balls, hustled out of the vehicle, and one of them as he rubbed a big bump on the side of his head, said he really didn't want to be impertinent, but he would really like to know "what in h—1 had broken loose.' "Nothing but a newsboy and a pair of mules," was the reply of a bystander. The harness was broken all to pieces and anew set bad to be brought from the stables before the car could proceed.

Chief Jones, of the fire department, long since commenced the work of removing the old style interfering boxes from the central and business districts of the city to the outs'de districts where the liability to pull two boxes for the same fire—and a consequent confusion of alarms—would be less likely to occur. Several boxes were changed some time ago. Yesterday box 23, which has been located for many years near the National house, was removed to Sixth-and-a-half and College, taking the place of box 61, which was put in on Sixth, between Main and Ohio. An exchange was made between box 15, corner Seventh and Eagle, and 51 at Fifteenth and Second avenue. Box 73, one of the latest improved Gamewell boxes, located at Eighth and Sycamore, waj sent to Twelfth and Obio in Slice

The opera house was fairly well filled last night to witness the initial performance o1 Ben Hur. The performance went off very smoothly considering the fact that it was really the first rehearsal in costume with scenic effects. The an dience showed their appreciation of the scenes that had merit and insisted upon a number of encores. The dances and the march claimed and received very generous applause. Tbe Cachouca was a very pretty dance given by ten young ladies. It received hearty and deserved encore, to which Miss May DaMond, the most graceful lady in the dance, responded. The costumes, very simple and pretty and under the colored lights made a mo*t pleasing effect. The ladies executed the difficult movements of the cachouca as though they were professionals. Prof, Mtlville, the dancing master in charge, should feel highly gratified at the succees his pupils have acquired in so short a time. The castinet dance was also well rendered and was a crecit both to tfcose participating and to the Professor. It, also, was encored. The scenery and stage effects were not an iney should be. The rendering of ths piece itself in pantomime was most difficult and should have had many more rehearsals than were given it. The title role was interpreted by Douglas H. Smith and was very well sustained. Miss Flora Keller, as the mother of Ben Hur, Mias Helen McGregor, as Tirzab, Mrs. Helen AJlen as Iras, and Mrs. Jennie Digges as Esther, were all excellent and in many of the scenes the acting was really fine. There was not that amateurishness that marred

some

of the other parts. It would not be just to compare any one of them with professionals, but in two or three of her scenes Mrs. Digges exhibited marked ability as an actress. This was especially tbe case in the scene where her father gave her to Ben Hur, who refused to accept her. Mrs. Digges was also excellent in tbe

house

top scene, in which Mrs. Allen displayed her best work. In the scene of tbe temple where Ben Hur killed the companion of Thord, Frank Sage as the wrestler did some very good work and made a fine fall.

One thing the audience could not un der&tand was what the transformation scene had to do with the piece. It evi dently dazed them as they Eat in their seats after the final fall of the curtain, not knowing the show for that evening was a thing of tbe past. They will pr b« ably know better in tbe future. The performance dragged Bomewhat and all the way through, showed very poor stage management, several bad errors being made that greatly marred the otherwise creditable entertainment. The piece will be given four more nights and undoubtedly move off in a smoother manner. This evening the famous Nautch dance will be given by the Misses May DaMond, Amelia Kussuer and Elise Hudson. This will well be worth seeing, for these three ladies are the most graceful dancers in the cast The tambourine dance will be given also, by the Misses Alvey, Pierson, Royse, Miller, Hummell, Clemens, Somes, Bindley, Ford, Barnes, Williams and Pence. This, too, is a very beautiful dance and the young ladies are well drilled. Gosee it to-nigbt. stuse CtoMip.

CMldren dearly love to imitate in that respect they should not bo offended at hearing themselves called very nearly the equals of monkeys. Boy Bine lives in a family' where botany furnishes one of the occupation* and pastimes of the hour. Scarcely a day passes without some learned exposition at the table or the display of a leafy wonder.

It is not strange that tho little lad has caught the prevailing mania to the extent of dabbling in science on his own account. One day he waa overheard by his elders, as he gave the following learned exposition to a little cousin.

Boy Bine held an apple tree branch in bis hand, and.began enlarging upon its peculiarities. "Now, Tommy," said he, "see how very curious this is. There Isn't often so many pistils In the middle, but this is a rare specimen, and it's got, I should think, as many as fifty. The petals, you notice, are pinkish. It isn't often you find one yellow or blue, but if you should you'd send it to some professor, and he'd name it after you. Perhaps he'd call it the Tommy-ania. '•Then hare are the leaves. Yon'd say, if yon didn't know anything about botany, that they were netted veined but look a little closer"

Here Boy Bine himself looked a little closer, and found that he was not stating a fact. *',% |rf "I do b'lieve this is netted," He exclaimed, recovering his self possession with the coolness of a true scientist. "I shall have to press this spec'men and label it 'rare, very rare indeed.' Now, observe how few leaves is on this stem. Only six or seven, you'll find never more than seven. One, two" Af

As the young lecturer proceeded he found his prophecy was to be belied. That, however, did not daunt him. Calmly stripping off the superfluous leaves he went on counting and announced in triumph: "Seven! I told you so. Oh, Tommy, it's a great comfort to be a real botanist

Every morning and evening ingoing to and from his work he placed a three cent piece In the palm of his hand and slapped it firmly down in front of the collector. At these times there was always a rush. In his hurry the collector tried to slide the money along with the tips of his fingers, but it stuck fast. Then he resorted to his finger nails, muttering blessings on th° bead of the man who annoyed him. This was kept up for thirty-two days until the nickel pieces were all exhausted. But even to this day jhsi collector always picks three cent piece with bis finger nails, so strong has the habit become.—Ernest Jarrold in New York Journal.

Repartee.

A man who returned from a yachting trip, which for some part of the time in* eluded Mr. Edwin Booth as a guest, tells the following good story of professional repartee between Mr. Booth and Mr. La Montagne, the well known amateur. No sooner had Mr. Booth come aboard the yacht than he was seized with a violent attack of attention to the waves at the side of the vesseL Mr. Booth's attention was engrossed here for along time, and when he returned to the party with, ps one of them 6aid, everything lost save honor Mr. La Montagne said in mild reproof, Why, Mr. Booth, is that the way yo$ are given to gagging your parts?" "Not at all,1* Mid Mr. Booth, seating himself in his best tragedy style, "not at all. I simply didn't like the reception that these swells gave me, and so I threw up the part"—New York Evening Sun. •.

A Thousand Tears Ago

In tho year 000 after Christ what was the state of Europe? The Goths, the Vandals, tho Franks, the Huns, the Normans, tho Turks and other barbaric hordes had invaded and overthrown the Roman empire and had established various kingdoms upon its ruins, Reading, writing and ciphering were separate and distinct trades. The masses of the poor and rich, alilto were wholly unacquainted with, th» mysteries pf the Al|rtifltb^1r""find tho pen. A few men known as "clerks," who belonged to the priesthood, monopolized all lea: set themselves up as special ai Rings did not know how to «ffen their names. When they to sign a written contract, law or treaty* which some "clerk" had drawn up for them, they would smear the right hand with ink, and slap it down on the parchment, saying, "Witness my hand."

At a later date some genius devised the substitute of the seal, which was impressed instead of the hand, but oftener beside the hand hence the law phrase, "Witness my hand and seal," At the date of which we write every gentleman had a seal with a peculiar device thereon. There were no chimneys in use the fire wps built in the center of the house, smoke escaping through a hole in the roof, Chairs were unknown, knives and forks were unknown. Even the nobility sat xra boxes and blocks and ate meat with their fingers.—St Louis Republic.
