I have made aeroplanes as large as 14 feet,
with 160 square feet of snrfsee, and have had
combinations of my kites In the air with ai
aggregate aorface of ST5 square feet, and

After obtaining tbla kaowledge aa to the

per square foot of surface, the next proposition
to he solved Is bow to arrange, the surface in
the best possible .manner. If an aeroplane of
IW square feet vt Surface will lift 40 pounds In
a twenty mile wind, I take It tnat dve times
that surface will lift Ave times as mnch, or SOO

tore this period and long afterward,
the reading of . plays, romances and
operas was a pastime in Virginia
country houses. The readings might
be by the piiviato tatar, and many of
the young men of those days prided
themselves on being good elocution-
ists. It was a pastime that filled out
rainy .awnday aftemomis. and
when a HOOtar could apt be had for
evening dances.
wmiamsbtirg was somesiiat of a
disappointment to the Hallams when
they first landed. There were not
more ttian twelve hnndred
white and btao^ .tlw. -toinh WtA
there were only abdi^ flfteen ot tW«n-
ty "gentlemen's" families resident in
the vlUa«e. Most of the bnUdings
were very instgnificaiit. without it was
the capital and the so-ealled 'palace"
of the goveniw. and tbe 'V^lliam and
Mary CoUegre, the second oldest col-
lege in the United States, wliich -was

Ite tlM ontokMs of tha .vElias the
aetots rentad a wardioasa and 'fitted
it up for a theatre. The seats were
classified into boxes, pit and gallery,
all on the same floor. They ~
bant at
the end of the warehouse. They had
to use tallow dips for the foot lights,
and also to light the building. Before
the ttme arrived for the opening of the
theatre the company became much
more discouraged than at first. The
old -warehouse was right in the 'woods,
and during the still hours of the day,
hardly did they see a person stirring
in the village. They could hear the
singing of bird In the trees, and It
looked to them that they had come
on a fool's errand to aet dnuaas to
the woods. But when the opening
night of the theatre came, Sept. 6,
1752, the whole scene was changed
like a work of magic. The road lead-
ing into Willtawisbnrg wave thronged
wlOt «nt-«C-date veUdes at every
sort, driven by negroes and filled with
gayly dressed ladles, whose gallants
rode on horseback by their side. The
treasury was well replenished, the
theatre was crowded, and Shakespeare
was acted on the eontinent tor ttw.first
time by a trained and competent omn-
8inglet<m. one of the actors
wrote and 9oka the toUowtos pro-

after years filled a unique place in the
history of the American theatre. He
'was the first star ever known to
American playgoers, and the first
leading actor whose debnt and early
experiences were American. He was
the foremost actor in America for fif-
teen years or more before the revo-

Tbe circus really has merely changed with
the people ot the country. The early Bh<.w-
men, who bad to make their way against aa
lU-instmcted and bigoted hostility, hroaght to
their aid every resource ot cant and charlatanry
of which Yankee wlU were capable. Beapeeta-
ble people would not go to an nngodly enter-

bss been going from bird to bird snd animal
to animal, and the fairy kisses she baa dropped
upon their brows snd eyes have made them
gentler and have cansed them to really con-

But all these years, tbe fairy qneen longed
for the arrival of the animal with the tooth,
that was to unlock all the cages and paddocks
in the gronnda. She was bnmsn enongb to
love snd sigh for the company of her liege
time s new anknal was purchased for tbe Gar-

this one tias tbe magic tooth," she would
say, but when she found she was mistaken, she
would not grow discouraged. She would say,
"Ah. well, I am sure it will be here sooner
or later."
A few weeks ago, a dog-tsced baboon arrived
at tbe monkey bouse. Queen Zo-Zo having ren-

and at night a grand banqnet among the
palms.
Tbe next nigbt after Queen Zo-Zo left, Mr.
Baboon, with an expression of deep gravity,
showing that he fully realUed the import-

having accomplished only fourteen miles. An
early start in the morning brongbt them to
the Eiunmlt before noon. Mrs. Whltmore's
hopes bad been that her boy and the men he
was with had stopped at tbe summit to rent
a day or so, before pulling out to the I.o;r
Cabin. The little party arrived on the 11 lb
only to find that the preeedlng party had bro-

"Tou can Imagine what It costs me

unable to give Rose all I could wish,

"Tes, but what 4o you managa to
get for yourself?" asked BIglow.
"I scratch along as best I can, con-
tent with what I get." And White got
up and began to pace the narrow con-
fines of hu room. . "If s pretty tough,
to-day, though, for the doctor who Is
attending Rose told me this morning
that I would have to move the little
cripple out Into the country. She needs
the sunshine and country air, he said,
or she would die — die, and I have not
got enough money to buy a square
meal." And he stopped in his walk to
swallow a great lump which seemed to
rise in his throat
"Well, old chap." said Blglow, reach-
ing Into his podtat, "tha truth Is, rm
not a capitalist myself, but Fve al-

fragrant flowers and an abundance of
the choicest fruit, he quickly wended
his way to the location of Rose's home,
laa sent the fruit and flowers to her
with his compliments, and hurriedly
sought a store where he knew cheap
paper was to be had. He bought a
quantity , and retraced his steps to
his "sky parlor" with a lighter heart
than usual, entirely unmindful of the
fact that as yet he had not dined that

THE Billboard Is pleased to ex-
tend to billposters and distrib-
utors generally Christmas
sreeUnss. tt is ft Uttte mtxiy
in the game, but aa this Is ths Chitet-
mas Billboard. It Is the proper place
In which to say "Merry Christmas."
WhUe Tbe BiUboard has taken but a
r— <«y •liilsiisr In tlin aflslxs .oC; its
biUposter MMids fiiir Sdme ttans It esn
not overlook the evidences of loyalty
to the "Old Reliable," 'which they have
Sbown doxinir the past year. For this.

!,i Tiitte win be a great gathering of
Unpostlng magnates In Old Clncy next
Tnasday, when the directors oC the
Association wiU hold tbcir.' Jlacaiiber
meeting. A large attsndsaos Is ex-
pected, and an the High Guys wlU be
«n hand. We have not decided whether
it would be best to take to the woods
on this octasion, or to remsln.'tB'town
and face it out. It is expected tlist
when thla bunch arrives that we will
be panic stricken and ready to hold up
both hands. We may. on the second
thought, decide to hajig oat the latch
string, and be prepared to extend a
ffiaA hand to all comers. The direc-
tors might do worse than spend an
hour or so looking over tbe magnificent
plant of The Billboard. A busier UYe
' of industry is not to be found In CIn-
l^annatL ^ ^ ^
i^' - Oar old friend. O. F. Vsddsr. for-

' . ft pleasing manner, is a thorough gen-
- tleman. and presents his proposition In
ft straightforward business way. He
takes great personal pride in seeing
- -that "the details of a contract, placed
■ In his hands, are carried out as agreed.
■>• Thus he wins a customer every time.

- ' It Is hinted that old man Van Ben-
ren is already klckiog himself for sell-
ing out the controlling interest In the
combined New Tork plant to Barney
Unk. Under the old arrangement,
: ' VsnBenren's share of the year's profits
amounted to sotnethlng ilka .thirty or
tblrty-five thousand dulan. Now, he
derives but stx per cent, on his pre-
ferred stock of tll6,000 — less than
seven thousand dollars. Of course, be
got one bondred and sixteen thonssnd
doOan cash tor Ills wnnnw a i .Mvel^ but
be flnsL Just tbe same, The New Tork
City Combination is worrying over the
situation, and know that the theatre
managers are seriously considering the
matter. We have it from a reliable
source that tb* deal Is going to go
through, and that nothing oan stop it.
The theatre Soaaaitei* have everj-thins
to gain lh"tlils matter, and nothing- to
lose. BUTTINSKI.

it throughout the west. "We do not
object to an occasional sacred concert
