ADELAIDE RIsTORI made her debut in
English on her sixty-second birthday at
the Drury Lane theatre, London, after an
absence of many years from the stage.
The role was Lady Mdcbeth, and it is said
that the great actress had devoted many
months to its study, as her knowledge of
the English language is small. She en-
ployed an elocutionist to read the lines to
her, over and over, while she wrote out
the words phonetically. After thus get.
ting the sounds firmly fixed in her mem
ory she set about studying their meaning.
There was an immense audience. drawn
partly by curiosity to witness her novel
effort. At first her pronunciation was
hurried and indistinct, but after the first
act she was composed and spoke admir-
ably, while her acting was a. strong as
thirty years ago.

Movements OF 'Orrible Pasha.

Movements OF 'Orrible Pasha.
Arabi Pasha has diverted tho Mahomou-
dieh canal which supplies Alexandria
water, but it is believed that the greater
part of the cisterns in the town have been
recently filled.
A dispatch from Alexandria to the
London DAILY Telegraph says There
will be public executions to-day or to-
morrow. am asked to point out that all
the culprits have been convicted of MUIR
deriag Europeans under circumstances of
exceptional barbarity during the lombard
ment of the city. The murderers will
probably be shot by Egyptian troops. It
is quite possible, he says, that such ezecu-
ti0ns will continue for sOme time, as every
day brings to light similar cases.
Omar Pasha Lufti, governor Of Alex
andria, has returned from Cairo by way
of Port Said. He has made the follow
ing report to the kbedive On the way
to Cairo saw Europeans being massa-
cred and their houses pillaged at Daman-
hour, Tantah and Mihalla, where the
Alexandra robber had arrived. They cut
off tho hands of Berberins becaus. they
served Christians. Arab Pasha had called
q meeting at Cairo Of all the Pashas, Ule-
mas and nOtables and asked them
whether it was right to obey the khedive,
seeing he had sold Egypt to the English,
ordered the military bakebouses to make
1,5OO loaves daily for the British without
providing for his own troops, and sent tel-
egrams in their name. The minister of
the interior presided at tho meeting.
Mahmoud Pasha Baroudi practically d.
rected the discussions. Sheik Hassan
recommended the declaration of holy
war, but at the instance of the Coptic pa
triarch moderation prevailed. The meet
ing appointed a committee to 60 to Alex,
andria in order to verify the accusations
against the khedive. It was arranged that
u committee of seven should start on the
18th inst :, going from Cairo to Ismalia.

BROKEN PLEDGES.
Too Late Tor Beaver 20 Proclaim In
poDdonce.

Too Late Tor Beaver 20 Proclaim lndo
N. Y. World.
Why should Beaver talk about promises
and pledges ? He went to Chicago two
years ago pledged and instructed to vote
and work for Blaine, but that did not pre-
vent him from rafting to Grant. He was
nominated at Harrisburg two months ago
on platform which condemned compulsory
assessments for political purposes, while
his managers are now collecting 5 per cent.
from the Federal oficeholders for bis
campaign fund.
Who Bossed Wnom?
Philadelphia Times.
1t is a common belief that this little
man Cameron bossed not only Beaver but
pretty much all of Pennsylvania outside of
McManes, at Chicago in 1880 aid if little
Cameron bossed Beaver, in what size of
mould must Beaver have been cast Bea-
yer disregarded the positive instructions
of his own county in favor of Blaine he
treated with contempt the unanimous in
structions of his district for Blaine, and
he rushed to the fore for the despotic unit
rule and for Grant.
In thus betraying his constituents to
make the boss system omnipotent, did
Beaver boss the little Cameron, or did the
little Cameron boss Beaver? Somebody
was bossed, and if the little Cameron
didn't boss Beaver, there is an awful pop
ular delusiOn floating around very gener-
ally in the state. 1t is possible that tho
public have been in error about the real
boss at Chicago, and that the big Beaver
was bossing the little Cameron all tho
time but if SO, Beaver has been long
time in letting the truth out.
Better Arguments Asked FOR.
Pittsburgh Leader, Rep.
Mr.. Cooper, chairman of the Republi-
can state committee, sends us a circular,
which he hopes we will find space to
print. We are sorry that We have not the
room to spare, but will give Mr.. Cooper
the benefit of summarizing the contents of
tho circular. He says briefly that Mr..
Pattison, Democratic nominee for gov
ernor, was born in Maryland, whereas
General Beaver, Republican nominee, for
the same position was born in Pennsylva-
MIA. Therefore he thinks all Pennsylva-
mans would rather vote for Beaver. The
fact that Mr.. PattisOn moved into this
state at an early age aud learned all he
knows here is not alluded to by Mr..
Cooper. He was born out of the state, and
that is a crime serious enough in MIR.
Cooper's eyes to make him an unfit can
didate for the suffrage of Pennsylvania.
Please give US some stronger reasons than
this for not supporting Mr.. Pattison.

He Won't Play II Cameron Allows Him To

Ex,Attorney General George Lear, of
Bucks county, says that he does not ex-
pect to take the stump for the Stalwart
ticket unless certain things that have been
said about him are "taken back" His
particular grievance is against two Stal
wart organs of Philadelphia, which be says
called him hard names when he saw proper
to differ with Senator Cameron and Chair
man Cooper. Ifhe does take the stump
he says he may insist as one condition pro.
cedent to that step upon the discharge of
the proprietors Of one of the organs in
question, E. H. Nevin, jr., from the posi-.
ton of surveyor of tho port. Mr.. Lear's
theory is that Mr.. Nevin being depend

The public were induced to assent to
the increase of the salary of the presi-
dent from $4,000 to $4,000 per year in
view of the increased expenses of living
and entertainment, and this has been
the invariable apology made for it. But
as the San points out, the appropriations
made for the White House are on such a
scale that even the most extravagant
style of keeping it up can hardly. suffice
to expend the large sums Of money voted
for its incidental expenses. Besides
the presidents salary the follow
ing amounts are appropriated this
year to the executive department
For refurnishing the executive mansion,
$4,000 for care and repair of the ex-
ecutive mansion, $4,000; for fuel for

tions are made annually and inasmuch
as it takes $4,000 every year for "re-
furnishing" the presidents house, it
would he interesting to know what be-
comes of the furniture bought and worn
out yearly. $4,000 is big pile of
money to be expended annually in new
furniture. even in a presidents s mansion.

and far-sighted publicist as he is, speaks
in terms of deserved commendation Of
the personnel of the Democratic state
ticket, and INDUCES justliable hopes of
its election. No young or old Democrat
who is right in his head and heart is moved
by the silly-billy talk about differences
between "young Democrats and " old
Democrats in Pennsylvania. There is
only one Democratic party in this state.
It is big enough for honest men of all

tramping on each others toes, and it has
need for the counsel of its old men and
the enthusiasm of its young men in this
campaign. It is assured of both.

The summer weather up to this time
has been exceptionally agreeable the
days are not opprsssiyely hot, the nights
are cool and the song Of the festive mos
quito is not heard in this particular part
of the land. Our people have been COM
Portable at home and compasatively few
of them have felt the necessity of going
on the usual summer tours and of max
ing their stay at tho several watering
places. Some OF those who have gone,
likely, would not have done so had not
their preparations been made in antici-
patton of hotter summer than we have
or are likely to han, + tho power of
the sun must hencoforth weaken. !
The attenuated patronage of the gum
mer resorts this season is not a fair test
of their popularity, in view Of the favor
able conditions which 1t has offered for
staying at home, but since these have
afforded people the experience Of, realiz-
ing how comfortable they can make
themselves at home it is more than likely
that this year Of grace will date the be-
ginning of a reaction against the preva-
lent custom of going away. That
change in the ordinary modes and places
of living, at least annually, is healthful
and invigorating cannot be denied, and,
for the dwellers in crowded cities es-
pecially. run to the seashOre and stay
in the country cannot fail to be
salutary. But the custom has
run to rank abuse of its main
purposes and advantages. The re-
sorts have increased more rapidly than
their permanent patronage will justify,
and life at many of them has come to be
attended with the too severe exactiOns
of fashion and extravagance. The laws
of hygiene and the common rules of COM
mon sense are violated in the require
ments of many of the watering places
to a degree that makes stay at
them more burdensome than stay
at home. What those who 60 away
from home in summer want-Or ought
to have-are rest rather than dissi-
patton, pure air, good healthy food and
such natural surroundings as will graf
ify the instructive love of the beautiful
which is common to the race. The
places that furnish these at reasonable
prices, whether by the seaside, on the
mountains or in the country, will be
permanently successful but the places
that lack them or accompany them with
drawbacks like mosquitoes, extortionate
charges, incivilities of management or
inconvenience of travel will dry up.
