A Good Per formance.

A large audience assem- bled at the
Opera House last evening to witness
the rendition Of Pop" by Rice's Sur
prise Party. The play is a highly sen
sational operatic musical comedy me-
lange in two acts, aud was received
with screams of laughter by the audi
ence. The characters were we'll taken
ard, being ludicrous, pleased the audi.
ence. Miss Kate Castleton, as Sophia
Belize, was the favorite of the evening,
and when she appeared as a aquakeress
and sang "For Goodness Sake, Don't
say Told You," she was repeatedly
encored. The Tyrolean Marbles were
we'll received, an were the four dudes.
John A. Mackay, as the absurd dra'
matte author, was the life Of the entire
entertainment, and brought down the
house upon several occasions. The i'm
mense G. X. Fortesque, who weighs
nearly 800 pounds, amused the audi
ence when masquerading as a little
girl. The entire company were good
and the final act, burlesque scene
from "Romeo and Juliet" developed
some strong vocal powers on the part o.
w. H. West and Miss Castleton. The
|impersonation OF various actors by Mr.
Mckay was also an interesting feature

Lately We have heaId much complaint
from citizens reading in the northwestern
portion of the city in relation to the lack Of
proper water facilities in case Of fire. Some
siI weeks ago . resolution was adopted BY
the City Council, which provided for the
erection Of . fire cistern on the corner Of
Eighth and Poplar, and one in the EIstern
Addition. This move was prompted by the
importunes OF Chief Engineer Crane for more
water supply. Since then We have heard
nothing In relation to the matter
At present there is cistern on the corner
of Rose snd Spokane streets. corner of First
and Birch, corner Of East Main and IsAho
streets, and cornss of Third ard Poplar
streets-four sources OF water supply for .
city that Govern as much ground - Walla
WJls. This distribution leaves the entire
northeastern part Of town unprotected. and
when We consider thar the finest of our pri-
vate residences arc erected in that section.
We think the cause for complaint just one.
Experienced 6remen tell US that Walla
Walla should have at least ten COO gallon
cisterns for proper protection, and three
more At lssst should be erected ON Main
street; also two water hydrants on the latter
thorOusfare. The water company can fur
nish plenty Of supply ii the cis.erns and hy-
drants are put in place. and We believe the
matter serious enough to demand immedi.
ate consideration from the proper authorities.
Possibly after We have lost the flow er part
Of our city by q conaagration that could have
been prevented had cisterns been provided.
the wisdom Of our remarks will be made sp-

O.Ie Of the most ingenious adaptations
OF electricity, recently introduced, is that
by which machinery when in motion may
be instantly stopped-as in the case OF an
engine. A wire rope, coiled around the
stem Of the throttle valve of the engine,
carries a weight which is held in place by
a rest, and the whole arrangement il such
that the passing of an electric current
along a wire releases this rest and causes
the weight TO fall. The tension thus
thrown upon the wire rope acts upon the
throttle valse, cuts off the supply Of steam
and consequently stops the machinery
Buttons, with wire connections, are
placed in different parts OF the works, and
on pressing any one Of these the passage
of an electric current acts as above men
toned In any factory, these electric
buttons can be placed in every room, or
several Of them in large room, as may
be required. Should any one happen to
be caught by the machinery, the simple
pressing Of button in the most distant
part Of the factory will quickly stop the
whole.

The way this symphooy effects one may
be coesiderably different from its effect on

The rare musical treat gwen to our cltI-

inst, by the First Cavalry Band, will
long be remembered, and We cannot but
express the opinion of all who were fortu-
nate enough to be in attendance that it
was the most glorious musical festival OF
their lives. The creator of the Symphc-
nv. Lud Sig Van Beethoven is in music
what Shakespeare is IN poetry, name be-
fire the greatness OF which all other
names. however great, seem to dwindls
He stands at the end Of an epoch in mu-
steal history, marking lis climax; but his
works at the same time have ushered IN a
new phase Of progress, from which every
thing that is great in modern music has
taken its rse. Although the most ideal ar
tist in that most ideal Of arts-music-he
Is always inspired by the deepest sense OF
truth snd reality. The grand note OF
sadness resouuding in his compositions Is
the reverberation of personal suffering.

great an undertaking, even for the excellent

with almost the delica,y CT strinRed instru-
ments and the tortissimos were brought out
in q manner that was ill that the lover OF
brass could wish for. We have listened to
orchestral reuderings that were far less sat

DOS we're correctly taken and the passages
well executed in the main. The last move

partly intoxicated when discovered after
committing the rash act. An old case knife
was found under the stove covered with
blood. with which 1t Is thought he did the
