Garfield could neither say no nor be silent; he
was very much lacking in executive quality,a
all men are who never will be brutal. Arthur
has spent years putting men into Office and
turning them out. He was selected to be col
lector of the Port of New York with reference
to his ofice-giving qnlities.
The supply of pure water for cities is at
tracing much attention, and justly so, for
health and life are absolutely involved in the
use OF water for drinking and culinary pur-
poses. Ill health, sickness and death are
produced by the use of impure water, much
more than people generally are aware. Every
large city with proper sanitary regulations
discountenances the use of we'll water, for
surface water polluted by surface filth is sure,
settling into the ground, to find its way into
wells, carrying with it its health destroying
impurities. Where water works exist, draw.
ing supplies from lakes and rivers, the food
ing of the banks of lakes, or rivers, causes
vegetable and animal decay, rendering water
unfit for use. This increase of vegetable sub
stances in the water, also causes decay in the
pipes, making the water offensive both to
smell and taste. Microscopic examinations
often show water to be full of fragments
of vegetable nature. Practical expert
ence is showing that small lakes
and shallow streams are inadequate to
supply pure water. Greater water depths
must be reached, as in Cleveland, Ohio, where
tunnel under Lake Erie is carried far out
into the lake, whence water supply is OBJ
tanned from very great depth.

BIOGRAPHIES OF GARFIELD.

Biographies of the late President Gar
field are being thrown upon the public
in large numbers; and book agents are in
dustriously canvassing for subscribers in
all parts of all, OF nearly all the states of
the Union. Most of these works are
necessarily imperfect, gotten up with so
much haste to accommodate rival book
publishers, who strive to get first into the
field. All of these publications will have
more or less merit, and contain doubtless
a marked degree of interest, considering
their subject, and the tragic close of q
great life.
Yet, many of these hurriedly prepared
works are crude, unworthy of American
literature, and must necessarily be ephem-
eral. Many of these new issues are the
mere campaign biographies published
during the election contest of 1880, with
few pages added giving an account of
the shooting and last days of the
president. The campaign pages
of many of these books have undergone
no careful revision, or adaptation, and
speak of President Garfield as still living,
and in full action.
This is revolving, even CHASTITY, and un-
worthy Of the reputation of respectable
publishing houses. Yet tens, and prob.
| ably hundreds of thousands of these
books are sold, thus attesting the popu-
larity of the deceased president, and the
profound sympathy awakened by his foul
murder. But the biography is yet to be
prepared, mature and elaborate, worthy
of the historic fame of the great states
man and honored president, worthy of
the literature of his country, and worthy
of permanent place in public and pri-
vate libraries of the English-speaking
people throughout the world.
His accomplished and capable wife is
already taking the preliminary steps for
the production of biography worthy of
her illustrious husband, and will
call to her aid such literary
ability as may be needful to the perfec-
ton of such a work. This enterprise
must, of course, be work of time. 1t
will be labor of love on the part of the
bereaved widow, and when completed
will be cordially greeted, and hailed with
satisfaction by the American people es-
pecially, and by the advanced readers
and scholars of the foreign public. The
name of James A. Garfield is zone of the
few, the immortal names, that was not
born to die.'

FRENCH FAIR.
A Great Rush for the Closing Night
Results of the Voting.

Results of the Voting.
The French fair closed last evening in blaze
of glory, to use mild expression. From the
opening of the doors there was a steady
throng of people to it's hospltable portals, up
wards of two thousand people, as shown by
the door receipts, visiting the
hall during the evening. All
the tables were most literally patrSnized, and
most Unexpectedly unable to supply the din
ing room demands.
Below we give the results OF the voting for
the several articles announced to be disposed
of in this way, only giving few of the high
est figures in each case.
For the gold watch to the most efficient
police officer-Rouleau 1871, Brosseau 971,
Marvin 395, Casey $50.
Doll to the most popular young lady Miss
Nellie Brown 5O2, Miss Carrier 147, Miss
Benet AZ.
For the revolver to the most popular young
man-P. Prudhomme led his opponent, Paul
Lavillee, by small majority.
For the French gong clock to the most
popular groceryman, the vote stood: Mich
aud Bros. 535, +. A. Caribbean 1,73l.
An elegant gold headed cane was started for
the most popular physician, for which there
was lively voting on the first two nights of
the fair, but last evening Drs. Macdonald, Gau-
thier and Roy, the contestants, withdrew, de-
voting the proceeds to the fair, and it was put
up for the most popular member of the French
Dramatic club, L. T. LeFebore proving to be
the fortunate man.
Owing to the great crowd several of the
raffles and some of the voting contests were
not completed. These will be concluded
Saturday evening next in the basement of St.
Louis church, corner of Wabashaw lind Ex-
change street.
The congregation in this connection desire
that thanks be returned to the many who so
literally favored them, and to express their
greater.
To the untiring and well organized effort OF
John Olivier and Alfred Dufrene, ESQ.,, and
their charming and efficient lady assistants
there cannot too much credit be paid for their
splendid success of the fair.

ADJUSTMENTS.

The engagement of Mr.. Frank Mayo
and his excellent company-the first ap-
pearance in st. Paul in the portrayal Of
tragic haracters-closed last evening.
During his engagement Mr.. Mayo has
presented "Othello," "Virginius," "In-
gomar," Macbeth" Hamlet" "Jack
Cade," "Ruy Bias" and Orchard
Ill"
Considering the fact that Mr..
Mayors name has been SO
long and favorably known in
connection with speciality, "Davy
Crockett" most pronounced opposite
to the characters essayed as above, his
engagement may be considered in all its
features success. Mr.. Mayo has GER
tainly made most pronounced depart
ure, not so much in abandoning "C1ock-
ett'' and embarking upon the legitimate,
as in the fact that in the chara cters
he persenates in his new role, he
has made in each a creation OF
his own, in some differing but little from
the recognized version, but in others be-
ing so radically different, as to be almost
new production, especially true is this
in respect to his Orchard ILL.," given
last evening with marked success, and in
somewhat less extent of his "Macbe eth
and s'Iago.'
While Mr.. Mayo can be honestly critL
cized for his failures in all the
roles essayed the past week, he
can be as honestly praised
for his successes. Unfortunately

pressing effects of severe hoarseness
which greatly marred all the tender anG
sympathetic passages in his several parts,
and often detracted from the stronger
points, the grand climaxes, as it were in
which his real superiority shines out most
prominently. But notwithstanding
all these drawbacks, his business
steadily improved during the
week, a fact that must have been most
gratifying, as we'll as encouraging to his
future hopes.
In one other respect, too, Mr.. Mayo has
made decided departure from all othe1
star tragedians who have visited oul
city, in that his company has been sc
large as to enable each part to be pre-
sented without resort to ''supers," his
aim being to give the whole play well
Great care is also bestowed upon the
dressing of each piece, the details and
richness of which, especially in his
"Macbeth," have never been equalled il
st. Paul.
The company go from here to Cedar
Valley, Iowa, leaving at u m. to-day
then to Des Moines, and from there t
ST. Louis for a week, from whence they
go to st. 10, where they will be Joined
BY Miss Henrietta Vader, as leading lady
known as the best Lady Macbeth in the
country.
This week the Opera house will be oc.
cupied for the first three nights Of the
week, and Wednesday matinee by the
Boston Ideal Opera company, and or
Friday and Saturday evenings by Leav-
tits Giganthean MINISTRIES.
The last part of the first series of Prof
Baldwin's organ concerts will be giveI
Friday evening next at the First Baptis
church, ON which occasion he will be as.
sisted by Prof. Lieb, Mr.. Willrich anG

SMALLPOX SCARE.

Excitement About tho City Hall which
Proves to Have Been Causeless.
A genuine sensation was created in
and about the city hall little before
noon yesterday by the appearance of Mr..
B. A. Froiseth, accompanied by young
Swede, who Mr.. Froiseth said had the
small pox. Captain Clark, who
was present, hurried Mr.. Froi-
seth outside the building in search
of health officer, and for the first time
in six months smoked a cigar as a disin-
fectant, while Detective O'Connor and
Officer Nugent, made for back room to
see how their vaccination was work
ing;
The circumstances of the scare are as
follows: A Swede, about 20 years old,
named Charles Linn, at work near Hinck-
ly, on the st. Paul s. Duluth road, arrived
ia the city yesterday morning,
met DR.. Dedolph, who told
him he had the small pox, and gave him
a note, with directions where he could
be found, to Health Officer Meyerding:
Reaching the postofice corner the sick
Swede was uncertain which way to go,
in which dilemma he was found by Mr..
Froiseth, who accompanied HIM to the
city hall, as above. Mr.. Meyerding was
not at the city hall, and it was
some time before he could be
found, during a good portion
of which time Linn stood on the side
walk in front the health Office, where
people were constantly passing. When
Myerding was found he promptly sum-
moned Drs. Hand, Stewart and Stamm,
who, after thorough examination, de-
clared that Linn was suffering from an
attack of varioloid, instead of small pox
He was. however, taken to the pest house,
that being the only place where the city
could give him proper care.

The Boston Ideals.

The advance sale of seats for the Bos-
ton Ideal Opera company's engagement
was begun on Friday morning, and
thirty-six hours afterward nearly all the
desirable seats were taken--a fact which
is highly creditable to the musical taste
of ST. Paul-for the entertainments
which the Ideals are to give here on
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights
and at the Wednesday matinee, will I'M
doVbtedly eclipse anything of musical
character ever before attempted in this
city. In this connection it may be stated
that Manager Haines, in response to nu-
merous requests, is making an effort to
have the great soprano Adelaide Phillips
appear in the Bellies of Corneville
as well as in Fatinitza, and,
as Mr.. Martin, the business
manager of the Ideals has given written
expression of his desire to so arrange
casts as to best please the majority of our
people, there is hardly any room to
doubt that the effort will be successful
This will make the matinee one of the
most interesting performances Of the en-
gagement, as it will show both the great
est contralto and the greatest basso of
the age, in roles which have become
inseparably connected with their names.
The Gaspard of Mr.. Whitney in this
charming opera is beyond question the
most powerful personation on the oper-
attic stage, his Incompatible voice splend-
idly supplemented by dramatic action,
which is seldom combined with high
vocal ability. The following is the cast

The Pxrifanic Ladies of BraSU.
rom an Interview with Paolo Marie.


"That's it, exactly" Mile. Marie chimed
in, "they are awfully stupid. Why, if an
inuendo or a mot leste is spoken, when ev-
erybody would laugh here, everybody
there would first very carefully look
round to see who would venture to imi-
tate the laughter, and from sheer want Of
courage they'd appear perfectly serious
and unmoved"
"Perhaps they are too virtuous a sort
of people for opera bouffe," it was lightly
limited
"They're rather purltanic," was Mile.
Marie's response. "When l, in the
sCloches de Corneville,' did the dance
with the slight, graceful lifting of the
petticoats, which is so popular here and
everywhere else, they appeared shocked
the ladies at Rio Janeiro especially
and they put their fans before their faces.
1t was too ridiculous and Mile. Marie
laughed heartily. "And yet, don't be-

"Gath," Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Enquirer, has this to say: There
has not been anytime for years when the gen.
aral operations of the executive were so little
known. The president gives very little salts
faction, even to his old friends, when they
come for Office, and his clerks are not much
known to the crowd, and therefore do not
leak his secrets. For the present, Gen. Arthur
is enjoying some of the applause arising from
this mystery and quiet counsel. He unques-
tionably has better address for officeseekers
than anybody who has illed the place these
many years. Hayes received the oficeseekers
in delegations, had them present their case,
and said he would take it into consideration.
They generally interpreted this to be proof
of his willingness to be. annoyed again, and
finding he had made another appointment, in
general, they called him a liar and hypocrite.
