.THE BEGaAR STUDENT"
Tho Now Opera Great Success in tho
Hands of Charles r.. Ford's Comic
Opera Company.


In speaking OF the performance OF
the "Beggar Student by Ford's
Comic Opera company, tho New York
Sun said recently:
mo wonder managers are at logger
heads over the "Beggar Student" II
is novelty worthy of the quarrel. IL
was received last night ut the Standard
Theater with camprous applause at
the hands of Chas. II. Ford's English
Opera company. The situation Is rs
follows: a student of Kraker at the
time of the Saxon invasion of Poland
is persuaded by the Saxon governor,
who wisheS to revenge himself on n
proud Polish beauty, TO make love to
her, win and marry her under the
guise of wealthy prince. During "A
short but successful couriship--the
failure of a dashing young fellow like
the "Beggar Student" of last night Is
impossiblc-h finds himself actually
in love with her. His affection
prompts him almost at the last moment
To write her n confession to he handed
her before the ceremony. BY trickery
the Saxon governor prevents its deliv'
cry. AS her demeanor remains I'M
changed, he thinks that she loves him
too well To cast him aside, and he leads
her joyfully to the altar When the
revelry that follows the wedding Is at
its highest, the "Beggar Student is
suddenly unmasked by the governor.
Right here, rs she portrays the beg |
gar STUDENT forgetting shame and |
despair III his fury ut the betrayal of
the honor he had sought 10 save, Miss |
Alice May, the prima donna of Mr.
tord's company, realized in truly ar
tistic manner, the great possibilities of
the scene. The score OF the opera is |
very good, and we venture to predict |
that 1t will have in this country run
such as "PinafOre." the "Mascotte,"
and ether operas enjoyed in this coun- !
try. In the "Beggar Student" there
is a pretty ma2ourka, in which the |
"Beggar Student" describes the many |
charms OF Polands fair la les, "a da-hing |
Polish drinking song, which was bril- |
liantly sung by Miss Marie Brockell; |
an ardent love duet, given with pas |
sion and iervor by Phillip Branson
and Miss Louise Kissing, whose APP
pearance added Il touch of grace and |
beauty to the stage picture; some coup
lets and waltz which describes in
slow and voluptuous measures the feel
ing of the governor while kissing the
soft shoulder of Laura. The gem of
the score, however, is Polish love
song for the "Reggar STUDENT 1t is
n brief episode, but the nearer carries
II away with him as thing OF beauty
to be remembered by him forever.
The sale of reserved seats for "The
Beggar Student and Grip Van
is now open ut Max Elsers
book and stationery store.

The HOLIDAY Season

Opening at Max Elser's Santa Claus
Palace last night was participated in
by crowds Of visitors, who came and
went, crowding his spacious building
with eager purchasers and delighted
guests. From all parts of Tie city,
as well rs from adjacent towns,
came the thtOng which surged through
the building, and it was the unani-
NOUS opinion of everyone present that
never in the history of the Fort has
there been seen finer display of Holt
day goods, of greater variety or
better displayed. The build
ing was brightly illuminated
and showed to good advantage the
large stock of clocks, watches, dia-
monds, rare and costly jewelry, and
bBouterie Of every description. As
the sweet strains of music from the
Fort Worth Symphony society
hoated through the room,
the entranced visitor might
well believe himself in some fairy pal
ace over which some good saint like
Santa Claus Tor Max Elsar) presided.
1T Will be II source of pleasure to our
citizens to know that these
promenade concerts will be
repeated nightly through the
season, aiiording To everyone
a pleasant place to spend their even
ings. The following programme was
admirably rendered last night hy the
Symphony society and Tonight there

earnestly invited

THE State of Ohio is never happy, un- less she IS in the heat of political campaign, or prominently before the country in some way or other. The present Governors term does not expire till next winter, but the politicians of that ubiquitous State have already be- gun to kindle fires to set their little pots to boiling. The Republicans have just issued their call for State convention June next, at Columbus. The prohini- tion question forms a very respectable hump on the "body polite of that State, which is likely to cause some trouble to the Republican party before they get 1t moulded in form to handle. All the State officers, except Secretary of State, are to be elected next October; also a number of the Legislature, with none holding over. The fight will be bitter one as it will also involve the successor Of Prndleton in the Senate. He has much opposition Tn his own party, and the probability is that the successful man will not be Pendleton, even If the Democrats should come victorious. In case the Legislature is Republican, the fight for the Senatorship will be be tween Foster and Moves. The Demo cratic State central committee will meet this week and select day for holding their convention, and the leaders are divided as to the day the Geddis wing want the convention in Columbus and are not particular when it is held, while the Hoadley wing want fl held early and | at Cincinnati.

A DYING RACE.

The last of the Mohigsns by Cooper,
 was a sad picture to dwell upon. Yet
 number of Indian tribes in this country
 have been entirely exterminsted, or have
 died off, However insignificant a race
 of people may be, it is 8 melancholy
 thought, a sorrowful farewell to see its
 last member depart for that unknown
 land, without aiusie relation or mem-
 Der of hls own race, to lay him away.
 Yet such things have been, and there
 can be DO doubt will be again.
 MT. Comley, U. $. Minister of the
 Hawaiian islands wrote very interest
 ing letter to Secretary Frelinghysen last
 year. in which he discusses the future of
 the islanders. MT. Comley shows that
 out of population of 45,0O0 natives of
 aboriginal descent. there are over 700 condemned lepers. It IS estimated that
 there are between 5000 and 5000 con cealed lepers on the island. The sblest physicians there declare that four fifths of the natives are afflicted with syphilitic diseases. Mir. Comley says: ''rhe robust race of the ancient KanskB has shriyeled and dwindled to this melancholy hand ful, some of whom are still of noble phy- sique, and all of whom are of amiable character. Many are crippled by rheu mstism, syphilis, paralysis or leprosy; crippled alike in person, in morals, and in fortune-in mind, body and estate. There is no mercantile or manutactur- ing business in the kingdom that IS owned and managed by a native of full blood" The race IS dis at the rate of 1j per cent. | every decade, and IS on the increase. The royal family Is faring even worse there Is but one frail little glrl, the | daughter of princess, to represent the | second generation. The Queen Dow ager is childless. Queen Kspiolain has no children; Princess Ruth, sister of the | late Hemehamoha, has no heir of her body to her name or large estate, and so on to the end. Mir. Comley is of the | opinion that the question of replenish- ment of the vital forces of Hawaii de- mands the consideration of the United i States. It will require watchfuluess to prevent the island from drifting into Asiatic possession or becoming British l prOtectorate through the introduction of East Indian coolies. This island is we'll worth looking after. It produces | fine crops of sugar cane, an article that is in demand in the Pacific States, and | while we are not in favor of the present | of the island by MT. Spreckles, still We believe with NIT. Comley that 1t should be looked after, and that the United States should maintain such re- lations with Hawaii as to prevent the | island from being overrun by coolies or Chinese, and thus pass into Asiatic pos sessions

A Little Talk With a New Clerk.
! -hIcagO J0unaI

An old merchant, who has been m business since Adam was little boy, called new clerk to hIs desk one morn ing this week to have talk with him. The clerk IS very smart and the pro prietOr said to him:
 Young man, you are too smart. You have got so you smell of gin. You wear neckties that would scare a horse, and you seem tO be year ahead of the style, sir; the pants this year seemed to me to be tight enough, but those new pants you have got are so tight l don't see how you get all of yourself into them without using a shoe horn or stretching them with glove stretcher. You wear a number siE hat, with a washer inside of 1t, and number twelve shoes, and your cOattalls are so short I should think you would take your death of cold. And look at that diamond pin, or ls It alum? You have your finger nails dressed by a profes- siOnal corn doctor; and your hair IS parted in the middle and plastered down with bandoline. You get nine dollars 6 week and pay siI dollars for board, sev- en dollars for whisky, and five dollars for cigars. Now, where do you get your clothes? You think I am blamed fool to live here forty years and not get into the racket of a sOftheaCed kId like you? Now you go and sweep out the store and come in here about the time you usually go ont for a drink, and | will have a little time to give you advice that will do you good" The young fellow went out and dld not come back, and some thInk he crswled into gasplpe.
