/There is not any foodstuff whose growth
has been more astonishing- than the
•growth of sugar during the last thirty
■; years
' In IS7I-'72, as we learn from a state
ment of the Bureau of Statistics published
■ i o-day on our commercial page, the total
j»rocuction of beet-sugar throughout the
■worid/was but, .1,020,000 tons, and of cane
Hmrar, 1.595,000 tons. Tin* "total amount,
-therefore, of sugar of both kinds, raised
and consumed in 3571-'7l'. was bui • S.CUM'-JO
tons, and the price of sugar at that date.
xvas 5.::7, cents abound. This high price
Ss accounted for by the scarcity of the:
■<u>mmoduy. Thvre was jiot nearly -jnough ;
"raised to go aro:.'nd among would-be con- j
suniers." Jind thos.'i who wanted the articlo i
and had the money, to pay for it, got it, ]
but at a high Jipure.
Since IS7I-T2 the' increase in the jiroduc
lion of sugar has been steady, hut has as- j
_ ; sunic<l immense pro])ortions.- In ISSI- T S2 .j
the jiroduction of bett-sugar had risen j
to 1.752/M'. and of car.c sugar to r..ti60 r 0j0 !
tons, the price, having then fallen to 4.il i
cents. In 1b91.-"92 the production of beet- i
-sugar hrui swelled to almost twice its j
■; quantity in ISSI-'S2.. : and amounted to 3,531,
;oC<« tons. Cflne sugar meanwhile was not
ijiourishing so well, for in 1S?1-'S2 the cane
crop of the world amounted to only 2,5j2,003 '
: ions— somewhat less than ten years pre- ;
viously. The price- in lS?l-'22;. has still j
f furthe- dropped. to L'.fC cents. - <
"AVi^jTj'.piw. sugar a trifle under S cents a.' I

pSS^-'Pfr the amount of "beet-sugar raised
the world was S.GIO.OOt) tons,
'"nndof cane sugar. 2,501.C00; and thus, al
iopciher, during .this past year the entire
amount of sugar raised amounted to S.
f4l4i<JOo tons, as against 2,C19,00>j tons in
,3571-.T2. . '
-. ". l"»uring tho twenty-eight years" period.
1 therefore, the sugar supply rose from 2,
i613^000 tons to S, -114.000 tons, from ■which
it itppcars that considerably more than
three- times as much sugar was consumed
in IJS9S-'93 as was oonsumod in IS7I-'T2.

(iiiocd at U:>' _Vc:i«ieiiiy Vest«rt?a>'-:;
"Tlie Pur])!e I^ady." Sidney Rosenfeld's
farce, was presented at the Academy at
two performances yesterday before rather
.small audiences. The fare: is very clever
ly constructed, and was played by a com
petent company. "The Purple Lady,"
while emanating from the German, has
about it a French atmosphere; but the
latter is not laden with the foulness
which so. of ten offends those .who witness
the productions which have their origin
inVthe theatres of France. There are no
evil intentions or. the part of any. of the
characters, and the rather awkward situ
ations in which 'two of- them aro placed
lead to scenes which border on the sug
gestive, but/ the innocence of all parties
concerned is so apparent that these
scenes appealMo the sense of the. ludi
crous, and fail to give serious offence. In
this respect tiie farce is admirably con
structed.
Frank B. Hatch, as'the much-iinpoFed
upon professor, was delightfully droll in
the part,, and: acted v/ith a. simplicity of
manner that added to "the. character, and
made it a genuinely; humorous creation.
Teresa Maxwell was excellent as Peggy
"Proudfoor," and Olive Porter, in the part
of Lucy, tht; professor's wife, ticted with
a sweet -womanliness' that we.U suited the
role of the -better-half of the wild-man
nered Gillworthy. The others in t he':; cast
were acceptable.
