The plot of the new comic opera "The
Widow" which was produced in Chicago

week, is as follows:
ssThe Widow" the composer of which
is Calira Lavallee, young French mu-
cathedral in Montreal will be produced

house Wednesday night by the Hess COM
pany, the story is, briefly this: A GER
tain marquis in the south of France has
deserted a widow to whom he was affi-
anced, and marries another woman.
Upon meeting the widow afterward she
takes revenge by pretending to drown
herself. He is observed by an attendant
as he is trying to rescue her, and, fancy
ing the attendant thinks he was trying to
murder her, he buys his silence, and runs
away. Where he takes refuge under a
new Names woman tries to secure him as
husband for her daughter, whose lover,
knowing the mother to be friend of the
marquis wife, introduces himself to her
as the marquis. The latter, in his as
sumed character, meets him, and, as
founded at hearing his own real name
applied to stranger, thinks THE latter a
spy on his track, and keeps silence. An
other girl, to avoid a marriage, she de-
tests, persuades the disguised marquis to
pass himself as her husband. The at
tendant rearpears, and has to be bought
again, and IN the midst of the coil an &C.
cident betrays the indemnity of the mar
Quis. Then the marchi0ness comes, and
is told that her husband is the husband of
another woman. The marquis, still in
terror about the drowning of the widow,
refuses to tell his wife the reason Of his
disguise, and things generally are un.
pleasantly mixed. Suddenly the widow
appears and the marquis fancies her q
ghost, but the attendant explains and
then everybody is happy. and the widow
ceases to be q widow by becoming the
wife of the due, who is uncle of the girl
that the marquis pretends to have mar
ried.

Hid for the Flooded District.

Especial to Western Associated Press.l
WASHINGTON, March 4.-Sec'y Lincoln has
been busy to- day in perfecting plans for the
distribution of the subsistence stores author
lied by congress to be issued to those made
destitute by the floods in the Mississippi val
lev. From the data furnished he thinks four
times the sum granted conld be expended with
ont meeting the actual immediate needs of the
people. Eight officers of the army will be
detailed to investigate the wants OF the people
on the spot, and Gen. Sheridan has been Or
dered to detail four more from those in his
division to proceed at once to the flooded dis
trcts In view of the great distress 1t is intended
by the delegations from the states affected to
ask congress for an additional appropriation
for relief and also to furnish the poor with
seed corn for the coming spring planting. 1t
is represented that all the corn reserved for
that purpose in the flooded districts has been
DESTROYED and unless it can be promptly re-
stored the suffering of the present will be
turned into an absolute failure during the
year. The secretary also to-day telegraphed
Senator Vest, Mo, in reply to telegram
from Governor Crttenden for more rations,
as follows: Eight days supplies for
tenden) in Mississippi and Pemiscott
counties have already been sent. In view OF
the enormous demands from lower down the
river, it does not seem advisable to increase
the supplies to this point at present. For
example, the Arkansas commissioners ask for
$4,000 rations for forty days, which alone
would cost about $4,000 more than the total
amoant appro priated by congress for all the
sufferers"

OF course went to see the stock yards (Chi-
cago), but my visit had something of special
character, Tor / saw pig put through its per-
formances in thirty.fve seconds What hap
pened was this: A lively piebald porker was
one of number grunting and quarreling in a
pen. He was suddenly seized by the hind leg,
firmly manacled, and swung through the fatal
door through which no pig ever returns On
the other side stood man
that two-handed engine at the door
Stands ready to smite once and smite no more
and the dead pig shot across the trough and
through another doorway, and then there was
splash as he went head first into vat OF
boiling water. Some unseen machinery passed
him along swiftly to the other end of the terri
BILE bath, and there a water-wheel took him up
and flung him out on to counter. Here an
other machine seized and scraped him, and
down the counter he went, and then,
presto he was up again by the heels, in
one dreadful handful man emptied him,
and, while another squirted him with
fresh water, the pig, registering his own
weight as he passed the teller's box) slid along
the steel bar from which he hung and was
whisked round the corner into the ice-house.
One long cut of knife made two sides of pork
out of that piehald pig, and two hacks of a
Ratchet brought away his backbone, and there,
in thirty-five seconds from his last grunt-dir-
ty, hot-headed, noisy-the pig was hanging up
in two pieces, beautifully clean, tranquil,
icedi
The very rapidity of the whole process robbed
it of all its horrors. 1t even adds the ludicrous
to it. Here was an opinionated piebald pig
making prodigious fuss about having his
hind leg taken hold of, and lol before he had
even made up his mind whether to squeal or
only to squeak, he was hanging up in an ice
house, split in two!
That the whole process is. virtually painless
is beyond all doubt, for it is only for the first
fraction of the thirty-five seconds that the pig
is sentient, and doubtif even electricity could
as suddenly and painlessly extinguish life as
the lightning flash of that unerring poniard,
''the dagger of mercy" and the Immediate
plunge into the scalding bath.

Mr.. SwANK'S census statistics of the iron
and steel production of the United States
have been literally made use of by Senator
Beck and other free trade prestidigitators
in Congress to point an argument in favor of
their peculiar tenets. Mr.. Swank's letter to
Judge Kelley shows how these debaters
have fallen into error on account of not
knowing the full significance and bearings
of the figures they undertook to handle.
Senator Beck figured up profit of nearly
seventy per cent. for the eleven steel rail
companies, whereas the S14, 100000 profits
which he takes from Mr.. Swank's reports
should have been made to apply to the thir--
ty-six Bessemer and open-hearth steel works
instead of eleven. The percentage, too,
should have been calculated on over one
hundred millions of capital instead of the
$4,000, 900. Dunnell, of Minnesota, grave
ly informed Congress that during the last
year 372, 375, 1907 tons of steel rails were i'm
ported into this country, Notwithstanding
the tariff of $2S ton. This he repeated
several times and based lengthy TRADE
against the tariff with these figures for a
text. Mr.. Swank calmly shows the shallow
ness of the speaker by pointing out that tina
number of tons of steel rails would be sufi-
cient to lay ,231 ,537 miles of railroad tracks,
enough to 60 around the earth 1859 times,
and sixteen times the length Of all of all
the railroads in the world, and should have
Melted the National treasure revenue of
over ten billions of dollars. The Congress
sional Record is heavy with the weight of
Free Trade speeches by political economists
who handle facts and figures with but little
more wisdom than Messrs. Beck and Dun

American Dialects.
A westerner Who Thinks that Yankees
Speak the Best English.

The Cincinnati Commercial recently pub
lished letter from resident Of the West1
who has been travelling through New England,
in which the following passage occurred:
Just as the native Southerner is betrayed in
his speech by the popularity of voice and pro-
nunclation, SO is the Western Yankee distin-
gushed from the New Highlander. The typical
Yankee, slow of speech, talking with nasal
twang, and answering one question by asking
another, is still to be met with occasionally.
Then the total absence of r-sounds in the words
of the inhabitant of northern New England is
another popularity; he pronounces such words
as warm, storm, and the like, as if written
wahm, stohm, ETC., just as the kentucklan
does He says obleege, deestrict and pictur
but he pronounces can't correctly. In fact, he
is given to broad vowel sounds, and pass, lass,
class, ETC., are pronounced after the British
method. He likewise enunciates half as cor
rectly as the best schoolma'am of Ohio, and he
would laugh himself hoarse at the bare idea of
calling a calf fscaff.'' Such barbarisms as
cam, sam and pam for thu pure, noblesound
ing words, calm, psalm and palm, are never
heard in this part of the Union. / wish Icould
saw as much for Ohio, for it really seems when
one hears a man who has received university
training give utterance to such flat, vapid
sounds that portion at least of that mans
education has been in vain. On the whole,
the New England Yankee, who has never left
his native hills, and whose schooling has been
SO little that he spells college with d, speaks,
think, better English, and speaks it more
dramatically than men of other portions OF
the country, whose educational advantages
have been greater.

ENGLAND's characteristic distrust of
share and share alike in National grab
games is whimsically reillustrated in the
new policy proclaimed in Egypt At first,
when France seemed hopelessly swamped
under the exactions of the Germans, Eng
land was quite willing to share the suzerain-
ty of the Nile with the crippled Republic.
But since the conquest of Tunis and the
entente cordjdle with Russia, demonstrating
the reassertion of French influence in conti-
mental affairs, John Bull prefers less en-
terprising partner in the robbery planned
for his own special profit. Hence 1.-The sug-
gestion that Turkey be asked to step in and
settle the turmoil in the Khedivate. No
wonder France refuses, and the end, even
yet, may be the Anglo-Freneh war, post
poned since the time of Louis Philippe. In
such diversion of course all Europe would,
sooner or later, be drawn, and it is not un-
likely that this sudden speck of war is the
explanation of the German guaranty of
French integrity, noted in the cable the 9th
err day.
