This llre did net cause an alarm and tlie damage was net great, although Mr. Krncst Zutini had a geed portion or the fleer tern up after the flre was out In erder te be certain that thore was no mero about. Some or the water used In extinguishing the Humes worked through the ceiling and dren)cd into the slore room, damaging the wall paper. The second flre was at the dry goods Btore or Gcerge F.

The liouse was net lull by any means, yet it'sheuld have been packed, us the star, the play and the company wero first-class. The play is a clean, pure story or home life in New England, a typical New England ami Jai l'reuty is a quaint sayliurs and funiiv adventures in his own llttle village of Bucksert as well as while en a short visit te Bosten are admirably portrayed. Mr. Gelden was brought up In a town or this kind "away down East," and he hud plenty or opior epior opier tuiilties or ebserving and studying the runny characters who lived thore.

Mr. Gelden has the part el Jed J'reuti, the big-hearted and somewhat eccentric old innkeeper, and in It he has a character that suits him admirably. IIe plays the part in an easy, natural way aud'almest convulses the audience with laughter at times.

Den Pedre, supertcd by his family, re ceived (he dopuhitleu with absolute com posure. General Da Fonsecu was the. spokesman. He said that Hrazll had ad vanced fur enough In the path el' civiliza tion te dispense with the monarchy. The country, while gmleftil te the emperor for his put rlotle services, wasllrmly resolved te recognize only Iho republic. Dem Pedre made a dignlllcd reply, lle declined le abdicate, but suld he would yield te force. The Imperial family weru allowed ene hour te prepare for their de parture.

Iu the former year dlwill'octlen against the ruling monarch, Dem Jeas VI. led te his practical abdication In Ihver of his son, Dem Pedre 1 the ruther leaving for Portugal, le thu crown of which he hail succeeded. The popularity of Dem Pedre I, began te wune seen after he as cended the throue because of tlie favorit ism he showed Portugueso residing in Dnizll, mid he, In turn, wus compelled te leave his Seuth American throue for Europe In 1831, intrusting his son, Dem Pedro y., then live yearn old, and his threo sisters te the lender mercies of his subjects. Thus for forty-eight yearn Dem Pedre II. has been ut tlie head of Iho llni zlllan empire, und new he has also been comixilled te seek roftige In Europe, lira .IPs Enormous Territory. Iu extent or territory Hrazll is nearly us large us Europe, comprising upward of three million two hundred and eighty eight thousand Euglhh miles.

The metallic Jind mineral products of the country are various. Hrazll has always been iieted for Us richness In diamonds und ether gems, and the Holds from which (hey ure taken are the most extonslve known. Except ou the loftiest, mountains, the vegetation Is luxuriant beyond description, The forests of tlie country contain al most overy species of useful mid ornamental weed. The varieties of animated life are mere Humorous perhaps than in any ether legion of Iho world. Hrazll was discovered in lll.lby Vincent Yanez PIiheii, u companion of Columbus, lie took possession et (he country iu thu name or thu Spanish government, but ihe next year (he country wus declared an apauugoet Portugal by 'Pedre Alvarez.
