AMUSEMENTS. Avsavon’s—Rata tx “Josermive.”—Rhea makes an ideal Josephine, and though the play in which she assumes the role is by no means as strong as her character, yet the subject ses an historical interest which has ma- terially assisted Mr. Haren in making a place on the stage for Khea which is pecaliarly her own. As presented last night at Albangh’s “Josephine” is considerably improved an in new scenery and effects the presentation of last October would scarcely be recognized. It is still too long, however. and there is a lack of rapidity in its movement which should be remedied. Mr. Harris’ Napoleon is a counter- part in the “make-up” and he brings the char- acter ont with good effect. Mr. Francur's Talleyrand, Mr. Owen's Murat and Ruslan, Mr. Amoty’s Duke of Dantzick and Miss Van Sic- Jen’s Pauline are worthy of especial mention, The comening of the play, the beautifal stage settings and the fidelity to nature in the like- nesses of the characters assumed constitute a living ma of history almost startling in its realism. Rhea as the empress of the French is the queen of the play and she is in look, tone and gesture all that she assumes, to- night. Tue Natiovat—Heremann.—Herrmann, the mephistophelian wizard of the stage, | was greeted by a large audience at the National last night and his welcome was as warm as if every trick he played were new and every de- ception fresh, Assisted by his wite, who is a pretty little witch herse! nd by other artists, the performance was calculated to mystify even old hands in magic shows. In the fan- lastic tricks of Mr. Herrmann his old-time grace and mysticism are quite as taking as ever, and the pigeons and the rabbits and the Other magic animals are unchanged.

He sold me the horse for that, but after I gave him the money he declined to give me the horse.” “Was the horse alive?” asked the judge. “Yes, sir.” “Was it standing up?” “Ob. yes: it was eating.” ‘Where do you liv The Waifs of the City.

Wasutxoroy, D.C., March 10, To the Editor of Tax Evexrxo Stan: After reading the communication of “‘D” in Saturday's issue I have concluded that I, for one, can forego the benefits of the proposed early delivery, and I believe that 99 per cent of our business and professional people will gladly submit to the old order of things rather than to impose additional labor upon a class of pub- lic servants at once the most faithful, pains- taking and industrious, Doubtless there are some of our citizens who rise early enough to read their mail before 7 o'clock 4.m., but my own experience with Wash- ingtonians as @ class has been of « character to encourage the belief that it would be as great a hards np for them to be obliged to read their letters before 8 o'clock as it would be for the Dostmen to deliver them. For all business purposes the 8-o'clock deliv- ery is certainly early enough, few if any busi- ness men being at their offices or stores betore that hour, and to that other class of public servants who do not need to get to their posts until 9 o'clock and who quit work at 4, I would respectfully suggest a little consideration for the comfort of their fellow man as a panacea for the slight inconvenience of the delivery of their mail an hour earlier than they get to work.

Criminals Who Find Time to Get Their Breath Here. “This city is a temporary refuge for crimi- said Detective Block to a Stan reporter this morning. “An escaping criminal from another jurisdiction can come here and defy the authorities to arrest him so long as they have no papers from the place where the offense was committed. If officers arrest him and he is not a pauper he can soon get released on a writ of habeas corpus and remain here at liberty until a requisition from the governor of the state in which the crime was committed arrives, when he can be rearrested. The chances then are in favor of the criminal, for a large number of the requisitions are so defective that the prisoners are discharged. While the Teseenting ones here are waiting for the arrival of the necessary papers the accused has plenty of time to leave the jurisdiction and get many hundred miles away. What the District wants isa law under which such persons can be held for a reasonable time. “With Washington criminals it is much dif- ferent. ‘hey may go anywhere in the United States they please and an ordinary police court warrant will reach them if they are charged with a felony. An officer need only go bsiore a United States commissioner and swear outa warrant and establish the identity of the per- son arrested. On such a showing the commis- sioner orders a warrant of removal and the prisoner is surrendered.” ———— Anacostia Notes. In the absence of Rev. E.

Policeman John Stuart of the 30th street squad saw an apparition yesterday morning in New York. An hour before daybreak he saw standing at the ladies entrance to the Fifth Avenue hotel the tall form of a woman attired ina white night gown with ruffles and a wrapper thrown loosely over it. The wraith had on hat and shoes and carried in one hand ariding whip. Stuart saw the woman's eyes stared right ahead. She was fast asleep, The policeman touched her shoulder and the woman gav2 a sudden start and woke up. Then, with a shriek, she dropped at the police- man’s feet, When she recovered the policeman took her around to Captain Reilly's station house,where she was fitted out with a dress and proper clothing to keep her warm. She was benumbed with cold. To the sergeant she said she was May Case, an opera singer, and lived at 21 Great Jones street, The last she remembered was going to bed and to sleep in her own room, She had risen, putonher hat and shoes and gone up Broadway to Madison square with- out kuowing what she was doing and without meeting on her whole route a policeman to wake her up. The sergeant sent her home in charge of Policeman Murphy, who delivered her safely at her own door. = o> — The Future of Our Planet. From Nature, Among the writings of those who love to speculate on the future of our planet there is probably somewhere (though we have not had time to discover it) an essay on the cosmical changes which man will be able to produco in the earth. The data for solving this problem are striking. In a few centuries man has ac- quired all those powers over iarge and solid objects represented by his knowledge of ex- plosives and his use of steam. Multiply the centuries, and with them the history, by con- venient figures (a familiar process in this kind of problem) and there is no reason why the earth's axis of rotation should not be shifted considerably by human agency. +0- — The Pennsylvania state trout aud carp hatchery has just completed a building in Al- lentown with & breeding capacity of 4,000,000 trout.

Semaxs, Professor of Chemistry, Ohio Wes- leyan University, Delaware, Ohio, says: I have made a complete analysis of Baking Powder, Cleveland’s Superior which I bought at a grocery store where it was on general sale.
