The aquedact has been followed for several
hundred meters from north to south, and
then eastward by the side of the antique

The Cincinnati Opera Festival.

CINCINNATI, Jan. 29.-The opera festival
by the College Of Music and the Mapleson
company began to night in Music hall.
Before the doors opened all the seats were
sold and standing room all taken. The
audience numbered 5000. Changes in the
dress circle and an improvement in light
ing made the spectacle within exceedingly
brilliant. The opera was 'Traviata," with
Patti as Yroletta. Her reception was en-

Explosion of a Sy1atp jag.

Yesterday morning a curious accident
occurred at the residence of Mr.. Gottlieb
Bach, the driver of ssthe delivery wagon of
Jacob Christ. The syrup in jug was so
thick from the cold that it would not run,
and it was placed in the oven of the cook
stove to warm. One of the children, unbe-
known to the parents, had driven in the
cork so tight that it could not be drawn.
While the syrup was warming the prepare
tions for breakfast were continued, three
children, one of six years of age, one of
four and another younger standing about
the stove, the oldest being mounted on a
-four barrel near by. The result of the
continued heating was the explosion of tire
syrup jug and the blowing of the stove to
pieces, but with the exception of slight
burn to the four.year-old child no one was
hurt. The room was completely covered
with syrup, and portion of the stove was
driven with such force as to break one of
the slaves of the -four barrel on which
stood one of the children. Mr.. Bach is out
a cook stove and a jug of syrup, but is
thankful that no damage was done to Ibis
family. .za~ 1Esszass -1E

The German Catholics of this city have

church the coming season. The new edi-
fee is to cost between $25, 900 and $4,000.
In June the ladies of the society will add

Morning Work.

Sir Walter Scott used to do good
days work before his guests. were up.
Daniel Webster also worked in the
morning, and both seemed at leisure,
though it was not known how it was
secured. A good story is told of Turner
which shows his appreciation of the
morning hours:
Lord Egremont once invited Turner
to stay week at Petworth and paint
two pictures for him of some favorite
bits of scenery on the estate On the
first morning of his visit Lord Eyre
mont asked Turner what he should like
to do, and the great painter replied he
would go fishing.
The next morning at breakfast Lord
e inquired what it would please Mr..
Turner to do; and he replied that, hav-
ing enjoyed himself SO much yesterday,
he would go fishing again.
On the third morning Lord Eyre
mont thought he would wait for Turner
to announce his own plans, and was
greatly amused when he quietly said he
he was again going fishing.
On the fourth morning, Lord E,
unable to conceal his anxiety, said:
"Well, Mr.. Turner, [ am only too
glad for you to enjoy yourself, but you
are talking of going away tomorrow,
and felt anxious about the pictures :"
"Come up stairs to my room" said
Turner, "and set your mind at rest"
Nothing could exceed the Surprise
and delight of Lord Egremont when
Turner introduced him to two exquisite
pictures painted as he had desired
The great man had risen each morn
ing with the sun, and before breakfast
had, by good days work, earned his
pleasure in fishing. -Ma1aehester Times.

Animals in Norway.

There is a salient feature in the Norwegi-
an character which ought to be recorded
viz, kindness TO domestic animals. which in
that country are treated as the friends rath-
er than the slaves of man. As result, vi
cious horses are unknown; foals follow their
dams at work in the fields or on the road as
soon as they have sufficient strength, and
thus gently accustom themselves to harness.
Horses are trained to obey the voice rather
than the hand, bearing reins are not used at
all, and the whip, if carried at all, is scarce
ly ever made use of. Great care is taken not
to overload carts, especially in the case of
young horses, and, consequently, broken
knee is rarely seen, and the animals contin-
ue fat, in good condition and capable Cf
work till the advanced age of twenty-five or
thirty. So tame are the Norwegian horses
and cows that they will allow casual pas
sers-by to caress them while they are lying
down. Even domestic cats will approach a
boy with confidence, knowing that no chas-
ing or worrying awaits them. One very hot
summers day l met a woman holding up an
umbrella to carefully screen what l sup
posed was little child at her side from the
scorching rays of midday sun, while her
own head was covered only by a handker-
chief. In driving by tried to gain glimpse
of her charge, and found to my surprise that
the object of her care was a tat black pig.
The question of humane methods of slaugh-
tering animals has recently been prominent
ly brought forward in England. In this the
Norwegians show us a good example-they
never use the knife without first stunning
the animal. In the above remarks l am al
luding to the country districts of Norway; in
the towns the national characteristics be-
come modified, even though under these
conditions kindness to animals is still re-
markable. le.-London Times.
