A Stage on Wbloh the Tlooth. Acted to Make Way For s Furniture Store. Tho Richmond theater, tho oldest playhouse iu this city and one of the oldest in the country, will vory probably in a few days bo converted into a furni ture store. Some of tho greatest aotors this coun try ever produood begau thoir oareer upon the stagoof tho Richmond thoutor, and it was at ono time the home of the bost stook company in theUnitod States, of which John Wilkes Booth was a member. Tho lato Edwin Booth and William Florenoe both began thoir o reors on this stage, and Creston Clarke, a nephow of Booth, made his first ap poaranoo at this theater. Bofore tho war it was known as the Marshall theater. In 1863 it was destroy ed by fire and was robuilt, the materials being brought through the blockade. The soon cry for tho now building was brought from England. Tbo building is now ont of ropair and unfit for a plaoe of amusement, though it has boon con ducted as sooh up to the presont time. Richmond Dispatch. A Senseless Flirt. At one of the suburban stations along tho line of tbo Reading railroad an en terprising soap manufacturer has erect ed a faotory and warehouse Facing the railroad is tho largo bulk window of the main salesroom. In this window one day a few weeks ago thore appeared to the riders on tho early morning trains very pretty girl, who appeared to have paused In the midst of her lubor of washing tho window to flirt with tho travelon. NCjrly every male rider who saw her proceeded to flirt with hor, and tho male riders ou all trains that passed dnrlng the day did the same. In faot, she has been flirted with ever sinoe, al though most of the rogular riders hive long sinoe learned that the boautifal young girl in the window is but a waxen Igure. Philadelphia Rocord. An Kxptnnntlon of flow lt-r Trlrks Mtrr Emily lie Implicated. While in Chicago I saw tho nnnontieo went of an electric girl who included in her repertory a new trick, or at least ono that I had not yet seen. A stick about four feet long and as tbirk as a broomstick was produced, and I nod an other gentleman woro requested to hold It In a vertioal position before us whllo grasping it firmly in both hands. Tho girl, standing In front of nnd faring tin, plaoed the palm of her open hand against the lower portion of tho stick, resting it on the side nearest to us and farthest from herself. After rubbing her hand np and down for a few moments in or der "to make better eloctrio contact, " as we were Informed, and after enjoin ing ns to hold the stick perfectly verti cal, we were told to press down on It as hard as we could. This we did until tho veins loomed to stand out on our foreheads; but, ex ert ourselves as hard as we could, we, two strong men, were unable to press down hard enough to mako the stick slip past the open palm of her hand. Had the girl grasped tho stick with her two hands, I amsnro sho conid not hnvo withstood my downwnrd pressuro alone. I would havo borno her, stick nnd all, to the floor. But there she stood, with but one open hand bearing ngainut the side of the stick, aud both us could not by our united efforts force the stick pnst that wondorful hand. Suroly tliero seemed something uncanny about this. But it is very simply explained. The wholo secret consists in insisting upon the men holding tho stick in a vertioal position. When the girl's open band is first placed against the lower portion of the stick, she moves it two or three times np and down, pulling gradually more and moro against it As this tends to pull the stick away from the vertical, she Insists that the mon keep It straight Thus cautioned, tlioy will exert more and more effort until, when she feels that the pressure ngaiust her baud is sufficient, she instructs thorn to push down with all their might They do so and Imagine that they are exerting a treineudoua vertioal thrust, Whereas their vertical effort is actually very slight lnsufllolont even to over come the friotion of the stiok against her moist hand. The men 010 really ex erting a tremeudous effort, but uro de ceived as to its direction. With their bauds tightly grasping the upper end of the stick they are really trying to force tho other end of tho stick against tho palm of hor hand. N. W. furry iu Cassior's Magazine. THE MODERN OYSTER STEW. The MKIdle Aged Man Cmitrnats It With the Stew ol Uelore the War. " Whon I was a boy, boforo tho war, " said a middle sged man, "tho price of an oyster stow in a good ordinary ros taurant was 12j cents. Tho prioo has gradually gone up until now, in a good restaurant, an ordinary stow costs 25 oonta. In the old rostaurant thore was cloth npon the table, but this oloth, unless you happened to find it when it had just been put on, was apt to be free ooed with ooffee stains. There were catchup and vinegar and so on, some of them perhaps in bottles in a oaster. Perhaps the waiter gave yon a piokle or two. The light was not very bright The waiter brought tho stew In an oys ter plate, and as the hot broth washed about a little in the plate as be carried It and set it down yon were afraid It might burn his thumb. But the oysters were good. Let me pause to remark that the oyster la something to be grateful for. "Today the table, without a oloth. perhaps, is chorry or mahogany, finoly polished. For a oloth there is spread before you a napkin of ample dimen sions and bright and fresh. Tho piokle is chopped up celery and very good. Yon got two kinds of orackers, aud plenty of thorn, and a gonorous portion of French bread. The bnttor comes In a sightly little cone. The table furni ture is all good dishes, glass, every thing. The spread before yon is agree able to the eye, and the whole soene is brilliantly lighted with the modern in oandesoent lamps. The stew comes in an oval dish that rests npon a plate. I don't like to eat out of suoh a dish so well as I do out of a plate, but you know at least there is no danger burn ing the waiter's thumb. The oysters are good; the whole arrongemont is away beyond the stew of before the war. It costs more, but are we not better able to pay for it? For general got np and get and dash and style and oomfort the old stew couldn't begin to compare with it The modern oyster stew is one of many things that we do an everlasting sight better than we did.
