Kite flying has been reduced to » science in China, where many thousands of people will gather upon a hill on a holiday for the purpose of enjoying the sport. Many of the kites are cut loose and let go, because it is imagined that they float away with misfortunes that are threatening.

On Monday evening one of the Bowery variety theaters held not less than ahundred variety performers in its audi- ence, including numerous notables in that tield of acting. On the stage was one excellent vocalist in the person of a winsome young woman, and when she sang a newly popular song, “Comrades,” the professionals in front joined in the chorus, making itring as it had never rung before. A LESSON FROM THE GALLERY. It was in the Bowery this week also that some recklessly vulgar performers received a lesson. If the reader has never ventured to see an en- fertainment by female minstrels it may be news to him that tableaux are usually a component part of the show, these exhibitions of skirtless women being interspersed with the ordinary variety program. On this occasion one of the tableaux was copy of the familiar picture, “The Rock of Ages,” in which a female figure clings to a cross in’ mid-ocean.
