Meyer, also committed another sin. He
opposed the election of Everett for Con-
gress, last fall, on the ground that Everett
was unworthy. The Republican city and
district of Cleveland thought so, too, and
Everett was beaten by 1000 majority, so
the machine sought revenge, and Meyer
was removed.
These Eat scraps of civil service
history exhibit the sham and
humbug "reform" that animate the

any progress in the publication of the

bosses can prevent it. They are for the
spoils, and for nothing else. The people,
however, will see to it, that the Waterloo of
1882 continues until the regime of the
bosses is crushed out utterly. All things
are working together for good. Let the
spoilsmen proceed.

already dawned upon the republic.
Under the dictatorship of the
most corrupt of leaders, the Forty-seventh
congress proved to be the most consum-
mate failure within the history of the
country. Corrupt from the hour of its
organization, the late congress so disgust
ed and outraged the great mass of the peo-
pie that they rose in their sovereign power,
and drove forth, in unprecedented num-
bers, the men whom it was impossible
to respect and trust. Arrogant,
rapacious and defiant of public
opinion, reckless and unmindful of the
public interests, as it began, it continued
and died. When the speakers gavel an
nounced the dissolution of the Forty-sev-
enth congress, over two hundred members
retired from public view utterly and for
ever. The great political revolution of
1882 has opened the door of hope to the
suffering country; and there is to-day
and rejoicing that in great
measure the period of misrule is at an
end,

The Rendition by the Emma Abbot Conn
pany Last Evening.
In the repertoire of operas presented
during the successful engagement of the
Emma Abbott Opera company in this city,
none have been accorded heartier recog-
milton or more enthusiastic reception than
that extended the rendition of ezra Diayo-
lo'' last night. In the varied and beauti-
full numbers of this melodious score Huber
succeeded in imparting something of the
genial warmth and languor of the south
ern cline in which the scene is laid.
The music is light, brilliant and spark
ling, and sometimes the coloring is barely
suggestive of the sensuous. At the same
time 1t Is free from the gush too FREQUENT
ly substituted for the true comedy vein
attempted in many of the recent lighter
compositions. The rendition of ssFra
Diavolo' last night was as ENJOYABLE and
exhilarating as the awakening showers of
April.
The cast was admirable,and this resulted
in highly artistic and satisfactory rendi-
ton.
Miss Abbott's "Zerlina'' was marked by
a vocal excellence and graceful finish of
action that won immensely on the good
favor of the audience. Her numbers were
given with great sweetness and liquid flu
ency of expression, and the role was CAP
tivatIng throughout.
Mr.. Castles ''Fra Diavolo" was as bold
and debonair as brigand of polished
manners and high notions we'll could be-.
and he sang the role finely.
Of Miss Annandall's Lady Allcash. and
Mr.. Stoddard's Lord Allcash, no words can
be said but those in fraise
This is notso much vocally, albeit they
fulfilled most artitically the lyric reuuuire-
ments of their roles, as it is true of their
acting which was capital, and the same
may be said of all the cast dramatically,
for while the music is bewitching, the
vocal gems of the score are not so decided
ly marked or brilliant as in many other
operas.
Mr.. Connell shone as the bold cavalier
and as for the brigands, Messrs. Hall and
Gilbert, they constituted much of the life
of the performance. Their costumes were
picturesque to degree and their by-play
was very amusing and enjoyable. Mr.
Frederick was also good in his role. The
tosumes were bright and pretty as a rule
and the chorus proved effective. During
the evening the recalls were numerous.

opera, Elixir of Love-" will be given, and

MR. DoRMAN B. EATON, the senior mem
Der of the new civil service commission, is
granted the official title of Assistant Presi-
dent of the United States. To what extent
his associates, DR.. Gregory and Judge
Thoman, may share this honor, is uncer-
tain, but it would seem as if it might be
somewhat embarrassing to have a
trio of Assistant Presidents fas-
tened upon the civil service. That
Mr.. Eaton will not have it all his
own way, is spiritedly foreshadowed by
the Indianapolis Journal, which puts DR..
Gregory to the front with dizzy whirl:
If DR.. J. M. Gregory is not ''weu known. -
We do not understand the term. He is not q
chronic like Dorman B. Eaton; but wherever
cleancut ability, wholesome Christian integrity
and the highest practical scholarship are known
and admired, there is Dr.. Gregory known and
esteemed. Mr.. Eaton will have to be a much
ADLER man than he has yet shown himself to be
to prove the equal of Mr.. Gregory.
Judge Thoman's friends are to be heard
from, but it is presumed that he will not
undervalue his position as Assistant Presi-
dent, for he has ambition enough to fill a
governors hat, to say the least.

GONE Il CUNNING FOR CIPTL SERY-
ICE REFoRM.
The New York appointments Just made
by the President, go to show that his brave
words addressed to congress, regarding
civil service reform, were only spoken to
the ear to be broken to the hope. The re-
moval of Attorney General Woodford was
an act without cause, provocation
or justification measured by any
standard except the spoils system.
And the same IS true in regard
to other removals and appoint
ments in the Presidents own State. 1t
appears certain that this exhibit of boss
ism was entirely the Presidents work, and
that none but the boon companions of the
executive had foreknowledge of the pro-
cedure. Until the new nominations were
sent to the senate the New York senators
had not heard of them.
A couple of appointments Just made in
Ohio show the same grade of con-
tempt for the civil service. Thos.
Jones, Jr., a ward politician
and tombstone artist, has been appointed
postmaster at Cleveland for the single and
sole reason that he is a brother of Arthur's
crony, Senator Jones. Under the civil
service rules the appointment should have
gone to Mr.. Harding, the experienced,
honest and capable chief clerk of the
Cleveland Office. But the man who could
best serve the government stood no chance.
as against Tom. Jones, though that indi-
vidual has not the capacity to operate the
Office single day.
Following this civil service appointment
comes the removal of Gen. Meyer, the
United States district attorney for the
Northern district of Ohio,a the appoint
ment of Maj. Eggleston, who knows nearly
as much of law as billy-goat knows of
Wagner's Lohengrin. In this
last appointment the President is
supported by Speaker Keifer,
and Senator Sherman who wanted Meyer
turned out. President Garfield appointed
Meyer, and when his name was before the
Senate for confirmation Senator Sherman.
asked Meyer to appoint protege of his
(Sherman's) to position in the Office.
Meyer declined, and Sherman, with Keif-
er's help, got Arthur to turn him out.

INTERNAL REVENUE COMMISSIONER RAUM
has been for few days credited with the
intention of starting new party. II
seems that while Gen. Raum was one day
in close communion with three of his BOG
friends, Gen. Butler called, and the five
remained so long in conference,
that the rumor grew that a new
party was beingl Matched out. Raum
is quite grieved to think that his
loyalty to the Arthur administration is SO
little respected, and so he has come out in
a card denying that he and Ben. Butler
have any notion of starting a "banty."
Some little time ago John Sherman tried
to get Raum turned out, because he was a
Grant man at Chicago, and very likely the
ex-secretary is at the bottom of this new
michief.

fight as the city ever witnessed, took
place tonight in the basement of Matt

cipals were George FulIjames, lightweight

battle was for $500 and the lightweight
championship. Fourteen rounds were
fought III twenty-four minutes. The cham.
plonship and money was awarded to Full
james, as at the end of the fourteenth
round Gallagher failed to come to time.
Both men were terribly punished. In the
middle of the fight cry of "police" was
raised, but it proved false alarm and the
men returned to the ring and finished the

and Fiddler" Neary handled Gallagher.
Over 500 persons were present. PhiIadel-

tiers. No arrests have been made.

The river now lacks five inches of last

mile below Friar's point, on the Mississippi
side, and at two or three places on the
Arkansas side, which, no doubt, checked
the rise of the river here. 1t is now rising
