DUCE MARKET.

JFtess.

New wheat is beginning, evidently, to movi off a little more freely, though there are but few buyers yet m the market. Several sales have been effected during the week, including 1000 bushels of Tuscan, m two fbts, at 3s 9d on trucks. Oats are wanted, and, as offerings are now not numerous, the market is inclined to be firmer. Barley is, on the other hand, being offered somewhat freely, bat, with few ex* ceptions, the quality is only fair malting. Business has been done at 4s 6d delivered at the malt house,* and a line of 400 bushels of extra choice has reached sa. Enquiries are being made for Derwent potatoes, and 37s 6d is being offered for forward delivery off forks. Cooksfoot is still m demand, and the new crop is now coming forward fairly freely. The following are current prices paid to farmers, f.0.b., Lyttelton, for direct ship ment from country stations and free of oozh* mission : —

Old Wheat —Good to prime quality pearl 4a 3d to 4s 4d, Tuaoan 4a 2d to 4a 3d, Hunter's 4s to 49 Id, second quality wheat about 3d lower.

Oats — Nominal. Prime milling 2s 3d to 2% 4d, good stout feed 2* Id to 2s 2d, fair short feed Is lid to 2s, duns 2s Id to 2s 2d, Danish Is lOd to 2s.

THE TWO LITTLE VAGABONDS

"On Saturday evening a crowded, en thusiastic, and perspiring audience wept and laughed, and wept again, with inter vals of unstinted applause, as the sensational adventures of 'The Two Little Vagabonds ' were unfolded at the Princess Theatre. It is pleasant to b<3 able to record that it achieved a remarkable popular success, m which the artists, the author, and the management may justly claim a share:" So wrote the Melbourne Age when " The Two Little Vagabonds " was first produced m that city a few mouths ago. And being brought here fresh from triumphs achieved riot only m London, Paris and New York, but later on m the principal Australian cities, we have no' doubt whatever but the Oddfellows' Hall will be crowded on Monday eveniug next by an audience anxious to see the presentation of this, remarkable drama. The mere fsct that Messrs Williamson and Musgrove are at the head of atfaits is quite sufficient guarantee to the play-going public thut a perform mce of exceptional merit wiil be assured ; but it may jußt be mentioned that the company is exactly the same as that whioh interpreted the play m Her Muj->sty's Theatre, Syinoy, when it ran lo crowded houses for six weeks. "Ihe Two Little Vagabonds" is an adnpta'ion by ihose very brilliant dramatists, Messrs George R. Sims and Aithii'- -hirley, of M. Pierre Decourcelle's •• Lcs Deux Gnssce,"' under which title it was fii 8- produced *c the Ambigu Theatre, where it. had a remarkably successful run of two years- a quite phenomenal event :n the fickle French capital. It is a p!ay which m point of pathos, of the intensity of interest which it commands, aud of its cleverly (levUed plot, is one of the best of its class yet {Toduced. Much has been writttn re specting it, and invariably iv the language of eulogy. One of the prominent journalists iv London, and one who is connected with a loading newspap.r, even went to far as to write: — "The mau who is not touched by the picture of the lads m 'The Two Little Vagabonds ' is only fib for treasons; strata gems, and rpoils-let no Buch man de trusted. " Messrs Wiliamson aud Musgrove have had a complete set of scenery specially painted for the New Z aland tour and the piece will be stnged m the lavish manner characteristic of all their enterprises. The box plan is now open at Mr H. M. Jones.
