THEATRICAL. "A Secret Warrant" with Willis Granger, the romantic young actor in the role of Louis De Beaumont, comes to the Grand opera house September 120. This attraction is under the manage ment of M. VY. Hanley and Son. who also control Robert 11. Mantell, and the farce-comedy "A Runaway Match." Mr. Granger has the fortune to bo sur rounded by his managers with a most competent company, two of which are the original creators of the parts they play in the piece, we allude to Beyerly Turner and Marion P. Clifton. Mr. Granger sine© his advent as a star, aims to he a continuous producer of those scholarly works which makes the theatre a temple of art and education. Not only is he himself an able stage ' manager anil sincere student, but he is surrounded with actors of acknowledged ability. The mountings are finish ed and correct, and the ensemble of "A Secret Warrant" perfect. Having a large equipment and costumes, the play is marked with taste and fidelity. X X t The powerful odor of the Joss stick will pervade the Grand opera house when tbo Chinese-American play will bo presented. It is called "The King of the Opium Ring." and was the principal attraction at the Academy of Music. New York, last season. The plot is said to he novel and interesting, and the fact that several of the actors are real Chinamen add> to the strangeness of the drama. X X * "Pennsylvania," which comes to the Grand opera house shortly tells an overy-day story flavoring of the soil of the locality in which its scenes are laid i with characters drawn from life, and comedy galore. It is the latest state named play, and that it is skilfully con structed, contains bright and witty dia logue. strong complications, and dra matic scenes of groat strength, may be inferred from the previous works of the makers, Daniel L. Hart, a young journ alist of Wilkesbarre, and C. F. Cal lahan, both famous as the authors of such popular successes as "The Parish I riest," and "A Romance of Coon 110 - ! low, respectively, as well as numerous other plays equally prominent. Special new scenery by James Fox, of New York, tho Hlack Diamond Quartette, and a carefully selected metropolitan cast insure a finished performance that will be worthy of liberal patronage. X t * At 4.80 Monday afternoon Prof. Sviigali suUatcd a committee who wore to take a drive, conceal some article and rat are The professor was then to take the ralni and do everything they did and Had the hidden object blind folded. A flier seeing that Svingali had been secured the committee started around t*wi and reached the cafe of ] C. O. Ravla where a modal was hidden 1 behind tht bar. Tho party then re- j turned to the Central hotel and the ' professor was taken on the carriage. ' He drove nvnr the same ground blind folded and secured the medal to tho j mystification of all. New feats are be ing introduced at the opera house nightly. LTV r RM Rxcftritloiift Via the I.EHLKB Valley Railroad. rthnra; Tompkins County Fair. Ticket.* sold fUptember 17-2(1.

FOR THE CHILDREN Tlio Berkshire Intl ustrial Farm. About an hour's ride from Albany, In the Horkshire hills. Is a farm where hoys are taught the science of fann ing. and one of the strange rules con nected with tlie Institution is that a boy must be bad before lie can be ad mitted to it. "A bad boy," says the su perintendent, "is one who is lazy, with out ambition, inclined to waywardness and more or less beyond the control of his parents or guardian." The purpose of the farm Is to make good men of sueli boys. It is a big farm of 1,000 acres. The institution is known ns the Berkshire Industrial farm, and it is supported In a large measure by benevolent and philan thropic people. The boys are taught tlie common branches, such as are found in the higher grades of common schools. A half a day is given to study and a half a day to manual work. The rising bell rings at 5:30, and eacli boy must be In the dormitory within 15 minutes thereafter. After breakfast the hours until 12 are devoted to les sons. At 1:30 work is resumed, and in the evening there are recreation and services in the chapel. Nine o'clock sees every boy in n good bed. The boys can earn pocket money by good conduct Their good conduct is credited to them and their bad is deb ited. Those who by their conduct get In debt to tlie farm lose certain privileges, have to cat their meals at the punish ment table, where butter, sugar and dessert are unknown and apple pie can only be dreamed about. There Is an abundance of proof from the records kept of boys who have been discharged from the institution that it makes a wonderful improve ment in n bad boy.—American Hoy. A Mother f*at'n Leniton. Our pet cat had three kittens of which she was particularly fond. One of them was unusually active ami mis chievous and much given to climbing up feneeposts, walls and trees. One morning I heard a pitiful little cat cry up in a tall cherry tree, and on examination 1 found that the mischiev ous kitten was near the top of the tree, clinging to a branch, and its cries showed that it was frightened and afraid to come down. Sitting on tlie ground a little distance off was the mother cat, looking ns if she was thinking what she ought to do to get her kitten out of its trouble. Suddenly she seemed to have made up her uilnd. for she ran quickly up the tree to where the kitten was, and, pausing there a moment as If to fix the kitten's attention on what she was do ing, she began to descend tlie tree slowly and carefully. She was show ing the kitten the easiest way to get down. When she reached the ground, she sat down and looked up at the kitten, calling to it with soft, entreating cries, and the kitten, as if understanding ex actly what was expected of it, came dovfn just ns the mother had done.— Philadelphia Times. The Sunbeam Bird. Of all birds the tiny bumming birds are the most lovely. They look like an imated jewels as they dart about from flower to flower in tho sunshine. As is so often the case with birds of beauti ful plumage, tbey have no song to speak of. Moreover, they are as quar relsome as the saucy sparrows, lighting with their mates as well as strangers. They are very inquisitive, too, their cu riosity often getting them into trouble and sometimes even Into the collector's net. Like most wild tilings, they can not bear captivity and usually pine away and die when caged. Because they are such exquisite creatures the South American Indians call them by the pretty names of the beams and locks of the sun. Memento of Alfred the Great. Wiltshire downs is a tract of fairly level land in England. As you stand on an elevation and look across the country your eye catches the form of a gigantic white horse upon the side of n hill beyond the valley. It Is a figure cut in the rock in the side of the downs and is 175 feet long from the head to the tail. It 1b believed to have been made in the time of King Alfred, who died 1,000 years ago. The figure is rather crude, but when seen at a dis tance the outline of a horse Is very dis tinct. .lust above the figure, on top of the bill, are the remains of an old camp. The Two Boys. "Two little boy*," said Grandmother Dole, "1 knew many years ago; One, I believe iic was Thought Good Acts; The other was Did Them, you know I One never helped his neighbors at all; He never grew brave and strong; He was known to do nothing really good Nor anything very wrong, But the other was active as he could be, A favorite, yes, with all I Somehow he helped, why, every one, Grown up folks as well as smallI" "That's easy, the reason for that," said Jack, "As easy as It can be; He thought good deeds and did them, too; The other just thought them, you see!" —Adelbert F. Caldwell in Chicago Rucord-Her aid. Wanted ItiiMty Ones. One of Mamie's little friends linda pair of rnsset shoes, and she thought it would be nice for her to have a pair of that kind, so when she and her mother went to the shoe store and the clerk brought out some black ones she said: "That Is not the kind I want, mam ma. I want a pair of rusty ones." Knew Iter Uuaiaen, "You will lind the work easy," said Mrs. Ilnuskeop. "We live very sim ply, and there are no children to"— ■Oh, Oi'll not take the place nv there's no ehihler," Interrupted the applicant. "The idea! You're an exception to the rule."' "Well, nv there's no ehilder, all the dishes Oi break II be blamed on me."— Philadelphia Press. A TERRIBLE EXPERIERCL I was employed ns night watchman in a sugar refinery. There were two of us ou watch, and one night the weather was so hot that we both fell asleep from exhaustion. Suddenly 1 awoke and smelted smoke and heard the crackling of llames. I awoke my companion, Blackwood, and opened the door of the room. A cargo of raw sugar and molasses had just been taken In, and this was piled up on each side of the vaulted passage that led from tlio main door of the refinery. This mass was on fire and was sending out dense vol umes of smoke. Ou the other side of us were wooden stairs which led to various parts of the building, and these were also in flames. We were sur rounded by the flames, and the heat was so great that it was certain we could not survive long. Blackwood and I looked at each other In dismay. Ills boy appeared to be calmer than either of us und suddenly cried out, "Father, the beer cellar!" The men who worked In the refinery, on account of the great heat to which they were subjected, had a dally allow ance of beer, which was kept in a stone cellar about 12 or 14 feet underground. It was to this place the boy referred. The top of the stone stair which Isd to it was surrounded by fire, but we at once rushed to It and descended the steps. In pnssing the flames at the top of the stair my face was scorched and my hair singed. The door of the cellar was locked, hut with the strength of desperation wednshed ourselves ngalnst it and burst It open. How cool it felt after the fearful heat of the furnace we bad Just left! But how long would it remain so was the question that Blackwood and I considered In a few hurried words. We had hardly closed the door when we heard the frightful crash of the falling roof of the refinery, and pieces of burned wood came hissing and crackling down the stair. We rolled two barrels behind the door, which we dhl not fear would cateh fire, as it was covered with iron, and then we waited while It began to grow hotter and hotter. It was quite dark there, although we were so close to the bright llames. I could hoar Blackwood praying as he knelt on the floor of the cellar. lie was a good man. I believe, and well prepared for the death that met him that night. 1 soon felt the choking stench of burned sugar, and on puttifig my hand to the floor I was burned severely. The melted sugar and scalding mo lasses were flowing down the stair and filling the place where we were. The floor sloped considerably, and 1 re treated to the end farthest from the door. The heat was growing intense and the vapor was stilling. I became unconscious, and how long I remained so I cannot tell. When I recovered m.v senses, the heat had not gone and there was about six inches of water In the place where I was lying. This had come from the tire engines and was lukewarm. I could not feel this with my hands, ns they and my face were fearfully scorched, but I did so with my tongue. 1 had called on Black wood, but there was no answer, and by wriggling over with great pain for a few yards 1 found both him and Ids son lying dead. The scalding sugar had reached the place where they were and bad apparently stopped there. 1 could feel the hardened cake under the water. I conjectured that tbey,like myself, had become unconscious and had been burned to death by the boiling sugar. The time during which I remained in this place seemed like weeks. I had no hope of escape, as I knew that above there must he an Immense mass formed by the parts of the building which had fallen. I liad not strength enough to reach the door. At last, when my pain had decreased a little. 1 fell asleep or faint ed, 1 cannot tell which, but when 1 awoke I felt somewhat relieved and a longing for life. 1 also for the first time felt hungry. 1 managed to get some beer, which revived me consider ably. I tried to open the door, but was unable. The silence which pervaded the place and the consciousness of the presence of the two dead bodies had their effect on iny weak state, and 1 knew I was becoming delirious. 1 re member 1 laughed hysterically and be gan to sliout When 1 stopped, 1 heard a faint sound far above me. This made me perfectly wild. There was a hammer, which my hand acci dentally came against and I took It and began heating au empty barrel In frenzy. Then I heard a shout from above, but I was mad now. and I re member as If It were yesterday that 1 attempted to strike my head with tlio hammer, and then 1 lost all recollec tion. When I regained my conscious ness, I found I wns in the Infirmary. They told me that when the men were clearing away the rubbish they heard a sound, nnd. remembering the cellar. liud dug down to it. They thought at first that we were nil dead, and it was not till a medical man had seen the bodies that It was discovered that there was still come life left In me. 1 lay thero for months and was never expected to recover. A young and strong constitution, however, serv ed me In good stead, and I wns at last nble lo fill n very good sltuatlou. which the owners of the refinery kindly pro cured for me In England. Ten years have passed since then, and I am glad to say very few effects have remained of that terrible experience.—New York News. tlniieccMMiii-}- 11 a rsli ti First Farmer—l hear they give Hank a cross examination in that trial up to town.
