Sixth The first is an old established theatre,
the house having been built by a joint stock
company about the year 1853. IL first opened
under the management of j. nj. Field, with one
of the best stock companies ever associated in
any theatre in this country.
Although the stock company Is not capable,
perhaps, of performing standard plays as well
as some other companies, yet the performances
have been, on the whole, unexceptionable. A
year or two ago Mr. George ID. Martin became
the lessee of the Varieties, and has been quite
successful in making it pay. Adopting the New
Orleans fashion, he has for some time given
performances on Sunday nights, and the audi
ences were better than on other nights. He can
well afford to close on the Sabbath, if the law
demands IT.; but we are informed that he intends
to flight it out on that line, and win II he can
"Carroll's New Varieties" although paying
licenses as a theatre, is hardly entitled TO the
name. The place is small--a bar-room is in
'front.' large ''green-room" up stairs, and a
keno-room near by. The performances on the
stage consist of singing and dancing. The fe-
male members of the company are said to out
strip all competitors" in dancing the "Can-Can
Mabie." To any man of refined taste the eXh-
bitions of nudity are disgusting. To one OF rel-
gious feelings such displays on the Sabbath are
shocking. Carroll is known to the fistic frater-
nifty as the "backer" of several pugists. He is
shrewd and intelligent, and has travelled eX-
tensively and ''seen life in all its phases. His
patrons are mostly young men of fast habits. "
He. too, is prepared to defend his show, and will
probably unite with Martin in resisting the de-
mand to close up on Sunday.

ing their efforts in reaching the source. OF the
FIRE from the outside For a time their efforts
seemed futile, but finally the Chicago threw Its
inch-stream bodily into the windows on the fifth
floor and the 7. b. Brown, moment after, sent
it's Ia inch stream above that, clear upon the
roof topping the sixth floor. At this result a
hearty cheer burst from the crowd, and cries of
''Good, good, rang from every tongue. This
applause was an evidence of the value the citi-
zens of Chicago place upon the Opera House.
A fire in an ordinary establishment, even had
the streams reached the eighth floor, would not
have called forth such manifestations of enthu-
siasm.
The curtain had just risen on the transforma-
tion scene, and the attention of all in the audi
torium was concentrated upon the glittering
spectacle, when some idiot raised the cry of
"Firel" In an instant there was rapid rush
towards the places of egress CONSERVATION
was depicted plainly upon the countenance of
nearly every one. few, however, retained
their presence of mind, and, in stentorian tones,
exhorted the frightened people to pass out
quietly, as there was no danger. The same
assurance was given from the stage. Almost in
simultaneously with the alarm, the State street
doors were thrown open, and the audience, to
some extent quieted by the assurances of safety,
passed out in that direction. There were only
400 or 500 people in the house, and it cleared
in q very few minutes. Had there been a
crowded attendance, there would probably have
resulted fearful loss of life and limb.

In st. Louis, on Friday evening last Mrs. Har-

death about half-past o'clock Monday night.

with it. Her story is that she was in the habit
of leaving the lamp burning all night, and when
she was ready for retiring that night, she
trimmed the lamp and relit it, and was crossing
the room to place 1t on the mantel-piece for the
night, and as she passed the stove the lamp sud
denly exploded, and in a moment she was en-
veloped in flames. The burns were very severe
\ and extended nearly all over her body. Her
hair and eyebrows were completely burned Off

Coroner Predicow held an inquest on the

Narrow Escape from Destruction of Crosby,s
Opera House.

The Chicago Tribune, February 3, says-
Crosby's Opera House, the pride and glory of
Chicago, met with a narrow escape from destruc-
tion by fire last night AT one time 1t seemed
as If It were really doomed. 1t can scarcely
pass through another such ordeal and remain
intact. 1t is reported that nearly two hours
before the flames were observed it was apparent
to occupants of the building that something in
the vicinity was on fire, and search was insti-
half-past 10 o'clock that the location of the fire
was discovered
The cry "The Opera House is on fire, rang
wildly through the Streets and an immense
concourse of people was soon gathered about
the scene While several of the steamers had
run their hose up the inside, others were apply

Startling RumOr Prince Arthur's Life In
Danger
New York, Feb. 5.-The Ne,os of this city
has the following sensation:-
rumor reached the police last night that an
attempt was to be made on the life of Prince Ar
thur. An officer was detailed to watch the
Princes party as they proceeded from the Bre-
voort House to the residence of Judge Slough
ton, at Fifth avenue and Seventeenth street.
party of rufiians stationed near the Brevoort
House approached the officer, drew their re-
volvers, and ordered him to leave.
The officer got reinforcements, returned and
attacked the ruflans, and after a severe fight
arrested William Murphy. Pat. Mulhide, Charles
Gardiner, John Lough, and Michael McNulty.
Lough is an Englishn,pn, Gardiner a native of
Yonkers. The party refused to give any expla-
nation of their conduct. They will be arraigned
before the Police Court on the charge of assault
ing the officers there not being sufficient proof
to establish conspiracy against the Prince.

The Malone of Florence an organ of the
late Ministry, gives in full the Pope's speech on
New Years Day to General Kanzler and the
officers of the Pontifical army, in which occurs
Montana. He is reported to have said:-'1 can
tell you something. A person has humbly be-
sought pardon, alleging, as the cause of his sins,
that he had submitted to the violence of his
head of the bands which have assailod and
plundered us. We have known this fact for
long, but we have had the qualification of re-
ceiving the irrefragable proof of it from that
parsonage himself" The "personage" is, of
course understood to mean the King of Italy,
and his Majesty and the Pope will have to recon-
cile, as best they can, the conflicting claims of
private faith and constitutional rule.

Efforts to Break Them Up In 1T. Lou,

The Missouri Democrat of the I'd inst says:-
l Many of our church-going citizens have long
! felt aggrieved by the Sunday night performances
Aat some of our theatres, and effort is about to

the Lords day. A lawyer has been employed to
Iprosecute the managers of these theatres, and
yfrom the success that has heretofore attended
his efforts in the prosecution of misdemeanors
etc, there is little doubt that the knights of the

complaints will be made under the following
