AN 0PERATIC HORROR.
ST. PAUL, March 25th.-The Opera
House at Nice, Italy, took fire from gas
explosion behind the screen, on Wednes-
day night, and was totally and rapidly
destroyed. A large audience was present
at the time, and scene of widest con-
fusion and terror ensued. The means of
exit were totally insufficient, and hundreds
were trampled, crushed and killed, or
more or less injured. Seventy bodies
have been taken out of the ruins and it is
probable the loss of life will reach two
hundred. 1t is thought not more than
half dozen people could have escaped
from the gallery. Although the building
is right on the shore of the sea no water
was available to stay the fire. Among the
lost are number Of the SINCERE.

Conklln will oppose the confirmation,
though 1t is doubtful If he can defeat it,
