GEIsTINGER's PERFORMANCES.
How Donna Juanita was Received at Turn
Hall Last Night.


The Geistinger opera company appeared in
Donna Juanita To crowded house ut Turner
Hail last evening. All the seats were sold long
before the curtain rose ana the notice stand
ing room only" was displayed at the box office.
As singer Geistinger was a disappointment,
but as an actress she fully realized the expecta-
tions of the audience. Since 80, when she ere
ated the Geistnger furore, her voice has lost
much of the mellowness which once dstin-
guished it, just as her form has lost its once
graceful contour.
OF the ladies' voices the best heard was un-
doubtcdly that of Miss Seebold, clear, of great
compass ana always seeming natural. never
forced as was Miss Geistingers. Ferdinand
Schuetz, The principal tenor, carried of his
share of the honOrs and, in fact, was awarded
even more praise than any other performer.
The acting of Miss Johanna Schatz.of Adj Link.
OF G.. ;. Schultze. a sOubrette, comedian and
a comedian bassO respectively, and the
singing of Mr.. q. Meyer, the baritone, were
very creditabe. Bocaccio will be performed
for the matinee and TrOmpctte this evening,
the last performance. The management made
an error last evening in not having libTetfos in
English for sale, as many of the audience did
not understand German.

Wrestling With a Barrel of Flour.

Our schoolmates are few and far

OF them away and those who are left

some another. We are all like pickets

Off myself a day % two ago. The
wagon had come from town with a few
comforts, and one was barrel of flour.
Mrs. Arp and the children always
come to the south porch when the
wagon comes for they want to see it

while, and so when the hind gate was
taken off and Mrs. Arp had wondered
how we would get out the flour, l

The Railway hotel at Yuma, Arizcna

with double roof, a delightful feature
in hot countries, as it permits the free
circulation of the ar between the two,
a great advantage fer rooms in the
upper story, as they are thus protected
from the direct rays of the sun. The
space between the two roofs is filled in
with lattice work, the upper roof ex-

Letter-Writing byPrOxy.

"I'm, t believe, the only person en-
gagged in the business in Chicago" :"
said the handsome and bright lady
whose business card bore the words,
Letter writer" Il have written let
ters for ladies who. from their wealth
and surroundings, you would suppose
could do their own corresponding. l
have, however, found many such who
could neither spell nor write plainly
nor express their ideas. / have writ
ten a good many letters for persons
who make no pretense of their Inabil-
ity to do so for themselves. Eut the
bulk Of my patrons come to me not be-
cause they are unable to write, but be-
cause they cannot command express
sion for their thoughts .
"What are the letters about gene
rally?"
"Well, that would be telling. But
if you won't say 1 told you, they are
mostly letters of sentiment. The
greater part are love letters. You
think that persons would prefer to
write such letters themselves So they
do when the sentiment they breathe is
real But the letters / write are tho e
OF occasion. Each party desires to i'm
press the other with epistolatory beau
ties, and not having any thenselye;-
well, furnish the sentiments fer them.
It's very easy she added, with a
flavor of cynicism. There's regu-
lar stock of sentiments for all occa-
sions that pleases all people alike. If
some gentlemen who are the proud pos
SCISSORS of glowing letters from ladies
knew that some of their friends had
others from other ladies, but nearly all
alike except in words and all coming
from the same source, they wouldn't
be so proud.
Ladies write much alike, and so,
for that matter, do gentlemen. no
lice one thing about the latter, how
ever, that is peculiar. Young gentle
men up to the age of twenty-three or
twenty-four are very effusiye and gush-
ing in their protestati0ns. From that
age on to forty they grow more guard
ed and cold. They are afl aid of + di-
cule or something. Perhaps they are
suspicious and distrustful. But after
gentlemen reach middle life they re-
turn to youthful ardor in their letters
of sentiment. Queer, isn't it?"
"What other kinds of documents do
you turn out ?"
"Oh, letters of coincidence, of con-
graduation, of ceremony and SO on
letters that are meant tO impreSS the
receivers and are out of the power of
the apparent writer's themselves to

FOR THE FAIR SEX.
pTu.t Max. Her own stapdard,

This is the opinion of Mrs ID. III. B.
Goodale, in an article in Education,
on Mothers as Educators" If God
made man and woman unlike, for diff
ferent work-and this we believe
then no man can teach woman what
she most needs to know. In the field
of life there is great realm of COM
mon riches, common pursuits, which
may be shared or divided into thou
sand varying proportions to mutual
advantage and delight but for the
most specific and individual work she
can take her orders from that power
alone which rules all. She must see
clearer, determine more firmly, act
more enthusiastically and devou.ly on
her own true lines than man can do or
suggest. She must make her own
standards, her own methods.
