It cannot be said that the seaoti h is been
a satisfactory one, either in Ottawa or else
where throughout the country. In Ottawa
no really first class stans have appeared, if
we except C'ouUlock and Catherine Lewis,
neither of whom were greeted by audi
ences nn h as they deserved; while the
balance, of the season has been made up of
a number of "crosses," in themselves nei
ther theattical, musical i.or burlesque,
thmigli laiining to be all, such as "Fun
on the r.ri.sfol," We, I's Al Co.," ' ' ne
ijihuk. 'I'lie truth is, the "combination"
system is playing out, ami rapidly reducing
the standard of thealt ir nl-i all over the
country; 11 result liroiight about through
the nature of the system itself, and the im
mense demand for nttrai ticns caused by
the ini tease In the number of "openi
hott-es" throughout the country. .When
live or fix yei.rs ago, the system begun Its
course, tiro "coiniiinatloii" muruigers had
the choice of the people of n large number
of stuck companies, the combinations were
excellent and 'ho houses so limited that it
was dillicult for nil to till their time with
out taking in the "rural" open houses.
Dining that period Ottawa saw many of
the lined companies in the country,
more than she. could well patronize.
From year to year, however, the quality
!;us dcbTbr iti'd ; metropoh'an as well as
provincial Louses have increased, and the
be.st have been Kiadually withdrawn from
the country to (ill their time in the cities
only, liar J times then came, and today
there are not enough first-class companies
In the land to (ill the time of the metro
politan dates open, to say nothing of going
into the country. The final result is few
new days are produced, and the produc
tion of old ones growing more and more
defective. Every leading man or woman
Is ".starring" as long as some guy's purse
lasts barnstormers supplying the support.
When the crop of fresh managers plays out
the combination system will go, and an
new race of actors will take the place of
the burlesque contortionists. It would be
interesting to know what w ill be the im
mediate outcome; but us we look at it, the
Opera House lu Ottawa and all other cities
of her size will be fortunate if In the near
future it even approximates the excellence
of attractions i llered a few years ago. It
is not the manager's fault that stars of the
first miiguitude no longer appear here.
They can't be had except 011 c-italn'ies so
enotmous that it is useless to attempt , to
get them at prices Ottawa people are will
ing and aLle to pay.

Si hah Statistics. -Tli world's pro
ductlon of sugar is probably well toward
eight million tons a year. Of this Hiitish
India and China produces an themselves
consumes over a million tons encji of cane
sugar, their exports lieing small, and these
of very low grade sugar. 1 he estimated
product of all countries available for export
was.lti l31-o. a year or Jartre production
2.1 02.(X)0 tons of cane and no less than
257,800 of beet sugar. It is estimated that
the cane-sugar crop marketed this year
will lucrease to 2,21,POO tons, and that the
beet sugar crop will fall oil 520,150 tons
partly the result of a lower acreage result
Ing from the low prices of last year. Cuba
produces more than a quarter of the whole
export supply of cane eugar, last year's
product being VI ,0U tons, wntle this year's-
will probably equal lier largest crop (1875),
wnich was 01)9,000 tons. Of this more than
bait (In 1885, :j:i!),5:)(J gross tons) come to
this country, wuicu gets half Its total sup.
uly for refining from that island of revolu
tions. Louisiana produced last year but
il 4,000 tons but Its normal product is nearer
125,000 tons to which lexas, our other
citiet sugar growing state, adds 10,000 tons
more, rive otner .Mates contribute some
cane sugar. 1 lie Sandwich Island crop,
under the stimi'Iiis of the treaty which per-
mlts its sugar to enter duty free, reaches
Go.tiOO 'ons, but It is said that the available
land, and the poor quality of native labor,
the prohibition of Chinese, and the high
price of white la!or, tlx the limit at the
pre.-ent figure. Of the beet-sugar supply,
Germany produced last year l,l. i,000 tons
Austria .V7,000, Hu.-vda 1180,000, France 1125-
(, Jielgiuin 1K, i i , and Holland 50 000
tons. Oar chief contribution to this crop
is frun a Lftory at Alvarado, California,
producing about 1,00'J tons but it is believ.
el that this will become an important Pa
cLk coast i:i.-!u.try. Ueet Migur is largely

Oiir yield of 111 ip'.f sugar, in which Ver

of syrup are made from the large acreage
at the West, has not yet come into the mar
ket as an important commercial souice of
cryst.dliz able sugar, the largest crop having
been but 5,000 tons; our scientific agricul
turists, w ho g ive g.iod reasons for lookiug
to this as one of the great American crops
of the future, have yet to justify their
faith by their works. The manufacture of

laiiliesl. Met hods of incasurinfi; Time.
The story is that King Alfred has on bet
ler way to tell the time than by burning
twelve cancles, each of which lasted two
hours and, when all the twelve were gone,
another day had passed. Long before the
time of Alfred, and long before the time of
Christ, t lie shadow of the sun told the hour
of t lie day, by means of a sen-dial. The old
Chaldeans so placed a hollow hemisphere,
wiih a bead in the center, that the shadow
of (lie bead on the inner surface told tiro hour
oftliediy. Oilier kinds of dials was alter
ward made with. a tablet of wool or straight
piece of metal. On the tablets were marked
the ditl'erent hours. When the shado.v came
to the maik IX., it was nine o'clock in the
morning. The di d was sometimes placed
near the gn und, or in towers or buildings.
You set, in the picture, two sun-dials that
aro ou the i ray and black .Nuunery in Utta
wa, the capital oft aniida. 1 lie old clock on
the cssiern end of FiiiHiiil Hall in Boston
was formerly a dial of this kind; and on some
of the old church-towers in England you
may see them to-day. Aside from th3 kinds
mentioned, the dial now in existence are in
tended more for ornament than for use. In
the days when dials were used, each one con
tuined a motto of some kind, like these:
'Time flics like the shadow"; or, "I tell no
Lours but those that are happy".
But the dial could be used only in the day
time; and, even then, it was worthless when
the sun was covered with clouds. In order
to measure tlie hours of the night as well as
the day, the Creeks aud lvotnaus used the
clepsydra. "The water steals away." A
large jar was tilled with water, aud a hole
was made in the boitom through which the
water could run. The glass, iu these days,
was not transparent. No one could see from
the outside how much water had escaped.
So there were made, on tho inside, certain
mark that told the hour a the water ran out
