Max. MaretZek tells a story-well founded.
If not true, as the Italians say-in his
new series of 'Chrochet and Quavers" which he
is now writing for Music and Drama. 1t re-
lates to the battles which were carried on by
two rival factions enlisted on the side of Mme
GaZZaniga and Nine. FreZZolni, respectively,
during an opera season at Havana. Max
writes "In spite of all my dramatic skill tosus-
tain the balance of power between the bellig-
erents. the GazZangas' gained ground on
the 'FreZZolinos. The first husband of Mme
Gazzaniga. Marquis de Malaspina, having ac-
cess TO the asistocratic society of Havana made
easy proselytes for his wife among the
nobility. while FreZzolini's energetic style
pleased the gallery boys just as we'll
FreZZolini's party consisted of the
tiers-estat, composed of artists poets. mu-
scians, students and foreigners who could fully
appreciate the poetry i'm Nine. FreZZolini's
singing. The 'Gazzanigas,' more powerful and
more bold, would not shrink from any STRAIT
agem, however Mach!ayellic, to insure success
to their party and beat the opposition. Ono
evening, at performance Of Traviata, Nine.
GaZZaniga, at her entrance received shower
OF bouquets, but without acknowledging the
compliments by the usual smiles and conde-
scending bows. went at once toward a cunning
little white wreath, took it up, looked az
1t, threw 1t Indignantly on the floor, and
feet. Her friends looked I'm establishment,
and the opposition began to hiss her for
such disrespectful behavior, when she once
more took up the weed, stepped to the
footlights, and held the wreath at arms
length before the auience for their con-
temptation. 1t looked like a splendid
crown of white little roses and not even myself
sitting In the conductors chair could believe 10
to be otherwise. Having signifed her intention
to speak, the uproar ceased for moment. and
she burst out, 'Es una carona de a JOS Git is q
crown OF garlic), at the same time glancing
furiously at some of the well known leaders OF
the opposite party. From that moment the
Frezzolini party was not only SPLIT but CON-
pletely crushed, as everybody thought IL his
duty to revenge the insult offered to Marietta
Gazzaniga. l, on my part, wondered how she
could have singled out among so many flowers
and crowns the particular one, which needles an
explanation as TO its composing material and a
close inspection to dist nguish il from real white
roses. Toward the end Of the season I over
heard a conversation Of the French cook at I1e-
grand's with the sculions. about the opera ans
the singers, and among other things heard la
say: That was q fine and paying joh-.hat
crown of garlics which the Marquis Of aalazl.na
had ordered"

A freight and ballast train on the main stem
of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad collided yes
terday morning a few miles west of Ellicott
City. Twenty-Five men were engaged in load
ing the ballast train, when a freight train
rounded the sharpcurve near Woods switch at a
rapid rate of speed, and before the ballast train
could move on dashed into it. The two loco
motives were thrown down an embankment into
the river fifteen feet below. The engineer and
fireman of the freight train saved their lives by
jumping from the locomotive though the
former was seriously injured by escaping steam
from the boiler. the gauge cocks of which were
broken in the collision, thus allowing a great
volume of steam to escape. His face hands
and lower limbs were badly scalded and burned.
though by presence of mind in placing his hands
over his mouth he avoided inhaling the steam.
The fireman was also slightly scalded and
sprained one of his ankles

truth IS that, perhaps, owing to the way the to-

1t Is brought into more direct relation with the

sit is no uncommon practise for young men
who smoke cigarettes habitualy to consume
from eight to twelve in an hour and to keep
this up for four or five hours daily. The total
quantity OF tobacco may not seem large but be-
yOnd question. the volume of smoke to which
the breath organs of the smoker are exposed
and the characteristics of that smoke as regards
the proportion OF nicotine introduced into the
system, combine to place the organism very
fully under the influence of the tobacco. A con-
siderable number of cases have been brought
under our notice during the last few months, in
which youths and young men who have not yet
completed the full term of physical DEVELOPMENT
have had their health seriously impaired by the
practise of almost necessarily smoking cigar

RingbOne and Bone SPAWN.

The question has often been asked:
"What is the cause, and what will cure

caused by leak or rupture in the tube
or aqueduct that conveys nutriment to
the hoof; the matter that should pass on
and cause the hoof to enlarge leaks out
by the way, and causes the enlargement
called ringbone. During the first twelve
months the enlargement is not a hard

During this stage any laceration of the
