to what remains, and this policy can
only be contiemed by the daily decided accounts of an unexpectet ly large reduction of beet ings. In Silesia, official returns point to ue per ceont., in East Prussia 31 per cent. At Austria, eigoty | factories have been tabulated to show | 40 per cent., decrease. French esti-| mates of 20 to 25 per cent, are being | confirmed.

al- | ready sown, andin this neighborhood | at least the rains have not been sharp | enough to interrupt planting.” =a. Paganini Outdone. SOME RARE FEATS UPON A VIOLIN BY A PLAYER WITHOUT A BOW.
‘orrespondence Son Francisco Call}.
The piece on the programme which entertained me the most was a perform- ance on the violin. Ithad just begun as lL entered the room. The performer was a handsome young fellow, dressed in & grotesque suit of many colors, and he was taiking sway tothe audience as| I came in, in # Very animated manner.
t seemed, as neariy as [ could under
stand him, that he had lost his violio bow, and unless he could find some sub- stitute for it he could not do his pare in the concert. Did any of his audience happea to have a vielin bow with them ! Not Wel!, that was too bad! What should he do! Would anything else answer instead of a bow? Couldn’t somebody lend him something? ete. Of course this was all made up. The object of the violinist was to get hold of some nondescript object with which he could play on his violin instead of a bow, and so show his skill, and ail his talk was simply to entertain his audience so mach the more. Presently some body handed him a visiting card—a common, plain, visiting card. The Violinist took it, looked at ita moment inquiriagly, tried its edge with his finger, and then applied the edge to the strings of his instrument. It answered the purpose very well, and he played quite a nice tune, At the end there was a burst of applause. Then he called for something else—to see, he said, if he could not do a little better.
An officer of the army, who was sitt- ing near the stage, passed up his sword and with the sword for a bow the clever young violinist, after a moment or two’s experimenting, played another nice tuoe, over which their was more applause, louder than before. Then he handed the sword back to the officer and asked for something else. A lady handed him anumbrella. An umbrella! How could any one play onthe violin with aa umbrella! But this man did. He opened the umbrella and, finding a smooth place a few inches in length on the handle, went to work with it with ease and succeeded surprisingly well. he applause when finished was heartier than ever, and what had been before a scene Of mere amusement on the part of the audience seemed to rise into some- thing jike admiration.
(nd now the violinist good naturedly offered to try once more, And what do you think was handed him this time? A sboe; an old shoe! Surely he would have to give itupnow. Fora moment he looked as if he would. After examining the shoe with care fora moment, the violinist found a place on the inner side, between the heel and the toe, where the projecting sole furnished ushert, sharp edge. When he had found that and felt it with his finger, he looked up with a pleased expression, as if to say, I guess that will do. And so it did; for with the shve for a violin bow he went on and played a tripping tune that set everybody’s feet a-going, and when he had finished filled the room with a deafening round of applause. With a long bow and a pleasant xmile, in A moment he was gone.
