A City at the Bottom of Lake Geneva,

The London Telegraph gives the fol-
lowing report of remarkable discovery
at Lake Geneva: "a strange discovery is
reported from the Lake OF Geneva. a
tourist, having lost his trunk, two divers
were employed to search for it. While
they were below water they found what
they supposed to he a village since GOV.
cred by the lake. Their statements led
to an investigation of the spot by the
municipal authorities, who took measures
to ascertain the truth of the extraordi.
nary account of the divers. On covering
the placid surface with oil, these latter
were able to distinguish the plan Of II
town, streets, squares and detached houses
marking the bed of the lake. The Iuddy
hue which characterized them led the OBJ
servers to suppose that the buildings had
been covered with the famous vermiion
cement which was used by the Celts, Cim-
bri and the early Gsuls. There are 6out
two hundred houses arranged over an OBJ
long surface, near the middle of which is
space more open, supposed to have been
used for public assemblages. At the
eastern extremity lies large square tow
er, which was taken for rock. A super
ticial investigation seems to indicate that
the construction Of these buildings date
for some centuries before our era. The
Council of Vaud has decided to have the
site of the buildings enclosed by a jetty
stretching from the land, and to drain oil
the water, SO as to bring to light what
promises to be one of'the most interesting
archaeological discoveries Of our day"

AS TO CIRCULATION

The representatives of the Cincinnati Daily
Times having had the audacity to dispute the
large circulation of the Cincinnati DAILY STAR,
before the County Commissioners, when
the award of the contract for publishing
the delinquent personal tax list was about
to bs made to u.s. we propose to settle the question
of circulation before the public fully as we did
before the Commissioners. We therefore propose
to the Daily Times to prove the following propo-
stionG
FIRST-That the DAILY STAR has published and
circulated more papers any one day during the
present year than the Daily Times has during the
whole six days OF any week in that time.
SECOND-That the DAILY STAR erculates in
the City of Cincinnati regularly more than three
times as many papers as the Daily Times.
THIRD-That the DAILY STAR circulates in
Covington, Newport, Ludlow, West Covington
and Dayton, Ky.,-the cities on the opposite bank
OF the Ohio-more than ten times as many
papers as the Daily Times.
FOURTH-That in the cities of Springfield, Ham
ilton and Piqua, Ohio; Lexington, Coyington and
Newport, Kentucky; Greensburg Vincennes and
Lawrenceburg, Indiana-three representative cit
les in each OF the three States tributary to Cncin-
nati-the circulation OF the DAILY STAR is more
than fifteen times that of the Daily Times
FIFTH-That the DAILY STAR has lists Of regu-
lar subscribers in three times as many places
as the Daily Times, and that these lists OF the
DAILY STAR average three times as many
subscribers as those OF the Daily Times
We challenge the Daily Times to
a contradiction of these five propo-
sitiOns, and offer to refer the matter
to any fair person of their selection,
and afford every means of arriving
mt the truth, SO far as the circuia-
ton of the DAILY STAR is cOn-
cerned.

ceedingy large but select. The house was
incomplete, but Notwithstanding that the
performance passed off smoothly and to the
entire satisfaction of everybody. This new
theater has a seating capacity of twelve
hundred people, and is conducted in way
that allows no disorderly conduct. Smok-
ing is strictly prohibited and beer served
between acts only. The arrangement is a
good one. In all of the theaters where beer
is served walters are constantly getting in
front Of people, making it impossible fol-
one to see the performance with satisfac.
tion. The new theaer has four private
boxes balcony, but no gallery. The stage
is medium sized, and supplied with scenery
sufficient to mount any drama in first-class
style. The scenery Saturday night was
beautiful, and was commented on and ap.
preciated by the audience.
The Blanche Media Combination opened
the new Opera house in J. Steele Mackaye's
new comedy drama, "Won AT Last" with
Miss Media in the role of "Grace Fleming
and Frank e. Aiken as John Fleming
The play is refined, full of emotion and
humor, and the plot is q very clever one.
Miss Media is charming actress. She does
not belong to the emotional ilk of actresses
but is capable of giving her part with Ger
tain degree of emotion and the intensity il
demands. Mr. Aiken is an actor in every
sense of the word, and takes the character
of John Fleming" a man of the world
in a way that reflects great credit upon
himself. c. w. Couldock, as Professor
Tracy" is good. Mr.. Couldock is an actoi
of the old school, and one who never
seems to grow old. Miss Emily De.mer
