The peoples party are fortunate in their

to any weight can be urged against Mr..
COOPER lie is Democrat in the high and
true sense of tho term a believer in equality
OF rights and in civil and religious liberty.
Nj COOPER is largely identified with the
industrial pursuits Of the city, and Is n pru-

Mr.. COOPER is a man to be depended on
and we may confidently expect at his hands
just such an administration rs he promises.

That sort Of thing is going 10 be unusually

too small to secure the right kind OF men even

HEINE,s OPINION OF ENGLISH.

Heine the poet, was for some time the
correspondent of the Augsburg Gazette. He
always professed an intense dislike to En-
glishmen, and there are some passages about
US in one of his letters to the Gazette,
which, although almost classic in Germany,
have never before been translated inic
English.
He says: II am told that Taglioni found
few admirers in London, and in truth this
is an evidence of her talent. Had she pleased
the English, | should have commenced to
doubt the poetry of her movements
The sons of Albion are themselves the
worst dancers in the world and
Strauss has assured me that hardly ole of
them is able even to keep time Poor
Strauss, he fell i'll when he had gazed upon
the English dancing. These beings have no
ear either for measure, or for music in gem
eral, and this renders their infatuation for
the piano and singing all the more insup-
portable. Nothing indeed, is more horri-
BILE than English music, unless it be Eng.
lish painting. This nation, whose sense nf
hearing is so defective, is absolutely want
ing in the sentiment of color, and OCCASION
ally the suspicion lays hold of me, that they
can not even smell What peoplel With
their eyes they fail to see, with their ears
they fail to hear and with their snub noses
they fail to smell. l."-[ London Truth.

A CONFESSION.

Some one, figure arrayed in white, with
frills around its head and blood in its eye,
let him in, and he lunged with easy grace
into the first chair that went past him. after
be had made several vain attempts to seat
himself on the piano. The reproachful fig
ure of Mrs. Bosbyschell regarded him with
calm severity, and her icy silence made him
feel uncomfortable.

Volksblatt offices.
Over the Rhine the finest displays are
made by Aims & Doepke, A. Schmidt
Heuck's, Thiel the halter, and Ray Broth

slight description of the manner in which
our citizens have responded to the reques
to decorate during the Festival.

GERMAN WIvEs-The culinary art forms
part of the education of women in Ger

mechanic, takes pride in seeing his daugh-

then is placed by her parents with coun-
try gentleman, or in large family, where
she remains one or two years, filling what
may also be termed the post of servant, ef
doing the work of one. This is looked upon
as an apprenticeship in domestic economy.
She differs from servant, however, in
this-she receives no wages; on the contrary
her parents often pay for the care taken af
her, as well as her clothing This is the
first step in her education as housekeeper.

Germany at the present time who was eda-
Gated in this way. Consequently the women
in Germany are perfect models OF economy.

LOTTA,S EARLY LIFE.

Mr. Burbank, an old stager, who was with
Lotta in California at the commencemcnto OF
her career tells reporter how she COM
menced:
sLotta was early led to the variety stage,
made great hit in it, and kept on. She
has undoubted talent, and her study would
have carried her through"
SIS it true that Lotta began her career IN
low concert saloon%
"No, sir, it is not. That statement that
has been spread abroad by the newspapers
is utterly false She never sang or danced,
or acted in any capacity in concert saloon.
She commenced her stage career
in California doing little child
parts with a travelling troupe that
went from town to town and from camp to
camp. There were no concert saloons III
California in the early days of Lotta's stagR
life Were the New Idea and Melodeon
concert halls? They were not. They were
variety shows, in which man could sif
down and drink glass of beer if he wanted
| it-iust as you could have done in the iegit
innate theaters here but a few years ago, but
they We're not beer halls any more than the
Theater Comique is, and that certainly is
not concert saloon"
Mr.. Burbank then went on to say that he

sion better than Lotta did She struggled
higher and higher up the ladder, day and
night, aud if any one deserved tc Win Win :s .s;s
success she has won it was certainly she.
There were various speculations in Cali
| fornia at the time as to her chances of win
ming fame-some believing she would never
amount to very much: but Burbank say
that there was good stuff in her, and fore
shadowed her greatness. She was not then
much of protean artist, dancing being her
! forte; but she could sing little, handle tine
banjo in passable style, and often played
small parts in sketches with the boys
When she left California it was to go
home to England but some manager got
hold of her, and opened in Niblos Garden.
where she played some protean parts Her
success was so marked in this direction that
she continued in it; got little play written
for herself, and the public know the rest.

Yesterday afternoon q fierce bul dog,

began to tear the flesh in a cruel man

him as loEg as be could, but the brute

went to the assistance Of Vosse, and, as
be approached, was attacked by the dog
which also seized him by the calf Of the
right leg, burying his teeth deep into the
