It was th unanimous verdict of all who had the felicity to witnees Pas- sion’s Slave at the scademy of music last ovening, that it far surpassed,both in the character of the plsy and it's representation, anything that has been put upon the bosrds ia this city for a long time, Mr. John A Stevens has ton wide and well established a repu- tation as an emotional actor of the higheat order to need econfums at this time, other than thoee which may with propriety be passed upon this successful introdaction of his pen.

Miss Helen Blake, as leading lady, is deserving of all the praises that were showered upon her, and together with Mr. Stevens, richly merited the en- thusiasm of the audience, who called them several times before the cartain, Mr. W. H. Biileg, as Oapt. Napolecn Bonaparts Shortaleeve, Mr. J. H. Miller as Danicl Webster Suralght- built, Miss Lottie Church as Patty, Miss Angis Griffith as Grace Toogncd, and all the others who so well bore their parts, are doubly worthy of complimentary mention.

Notes. NEBRASKA HAY CROP. Increasing Demand and De- creasing Supply. From the earliest settlement of Neo- braska until a recent period the lm- mense acreage of hay land ying aloog the Missouri in Washington and Burt connties,although tributary to Omaha, whore there haz slaays boen s large demand for hay, has been of bat little practical uze, owlog to the difficulty of bringing loose hay that distance. Recognizing this fact, Mr. John Hor- bach, of the Omaha & Northwestern railroad, aome threo years sincs msde propositiona to farmers and stock men In that viciaity, looking to the utiliz- Logof tho hay which had heretofore Kona to waste, offering them reduced tranaportation rates, on condition that they have the hay bailed and put in marketabls shape. Thia proposition was very promptly accepted by Me. Vick. Laotry, ot Blalr, and others, tho result being that an entirely new Industey hasbzoa ballt up in that lo cality and for two years past thous ands of bales of hay have been brought to Omaba snumlly from those coun- tics, whers formerly not a pound was shipped. The advantags of this has been doubly appreciated within the past month, tha fact bing that Oma- ha during that time has been entirely dependent upon the bailed hay recely- ed from Washlngton and Burt run- tics, andthe demand has baen a0 great that at presont it In selling at $20 per ton, and men who have hay to sell are “way up"” as far as cradit Is concerned. In this connection it may be stated thet it is reported that last fall Mr. James Stephensoa purchased of one of the Washington conaty dealers two haodred tons of hay, at £5.50 per ton bailed, which hag ho now finds a ready markat for at 315 per ton wholceals, therailroad freight being a trifls over on dollar por ton, thus leaving him a net income of over $8 per ton, or $1600 for ita investment of aix months since. Horetofore great deal of the hay supplying t1e Omahis market has been brought in Joose from the Papyo, immediately west of this city. The domand in thy city has steadily in- creased, whils the acreaga saitabls for hay purooses has very rapidly dimin- fshed, in conseqance of the land be- ing tillel. How tho city is bo sup- plied in thy futurs has becoms a very important problem To the west and northof us fsa vast extent of land specially adapted to the making ot hay, and when it 18 known that the making and baling of bhay does mot cost more than $3.50 per ton, acd that hay rarely sells in the Omaha market now at less t han $10 per ton and at times reaches the present high figura of 820, it will bo seen that there s a very handsome margin from which Nebras- ka farmers can derive a benefit. Ordi- nary hayland yields on the average two tons of prairie grass per acre, and by cultivation the yield could bs largely increased Nor Is the market for Nebraska hay confined to Omsha and our_river citles, for it is becoming tho policy of many of our large stock dealers to feed dly the best shirt In the States is mauaiactured at t'e Vaterial and workmanship, come thelr areat fmprcve f kind, ever at the uasderate price of Every shirt of our make in guaranteed first-clzas and wiil refand the money if found otherwise.
