Two Highly Satisfactory Performances by
the Chicago Church Choir Opera Com
pany.
The Chicago Church Choir company
gave two performances at the Opera house
yesterday afternoon and evening. In the
afternoon the company presented ssH. -
5. Plnafore," the opera in which the COM
pany first appeared before an audience
and in which it made a most brilliant sue
cess. While the personnel of the
present company is materially changed
from what it was upon their first visit
many OF the old favorites are still with il
The audience was good one for matt
nee performance, and as usual with such
audiences was rather undemonstrative
The opera is so well known that any ex-
tended notice would be superfuous. John
E. McWade as Capt. Corcoran was
IN tine voice and repeated
his former triumph in the
part. Miss Elite Butler also made a de-
clded hit as Josephine, singing and acting
her part with rare expression and grace.
The part of Buttercup was taken by Mae
Laws st. John, who took the character up-
on the occasion of the second visit of the
company here, and, as then, presented a
most capital conception of the character.
and singing her lines with that sweetness.
expression and vivacity which has
made her a decided favorite in ST.
Panl. William Wolf was the Dick
Deadeye, and better was never seen in
st. Paul, securing an imperative recall.
Of the other soloists it is ozly necessary to
say they were worthy of the company thes
were in. singing and acting their parts
most acceptably. The chorus and the or.
chestra under the baton of Prof. Adolph
Liesegang was prompt and we'll balanced
and added materially to the enjoyment OF
the entertainment.
PATIENCE
In the evening the company presented
Patience, or Bunthorne's Bride" to the
largest audience of the week. This bright
and sparkling opera has been given here
time and time again, and by some of the
| best companies travelling, but considered
as q whole, there never has been in this
city more pleasing presentation than
that of last evening. The cast was
particularly strong, each artist ap.
pearing to be especially fitted for his OF
her part, as was testified by the warm
and hearty applause accorded all the solos,
| and many of the choruses, notably the
male chorus of "The Dragon Guards"
which had to be repeated before the au-
dience would rest satisfied. The principal
characters of the cast were Calvery, by
John E. McWade; Maj. Murgatroyd, W
Norcross; Lieut.. Duke E;of DunstabIe'
Charles T. Barnes; Reginald Bun.

Herrick. As in "Pinafore' the chorus and
| orchestra did effective work. In fact, as
said above, it was very superior perform
anee, and worthy the imperative recalls of
the soloists and the generous applause scat
| tered all through the entertainment.
This evening the company appears for
its last performance during this visit in
The Pirates of Penzsnce," with strong
| cast and full chorus and orchestra.

IN INCIDENT OF THE FIRE.
An Act of Daring saYes a woman's Lii

An Act of Daring SaYes a WOman's Life {.
During the fire on Tuesday morning a
bit of heroism took place which almost
escaped attention SO quiet was the whole
proceeding. The fire had reached its
height and the building on the corner of
Ninth and Cedar had just caught, when
Pietro Ramacciotti, a spectator, observed
an old lady trying to make her way out of
the basement of house which was fast
filling with smoke and flames. She car
ried small trunk and was observed to
reach the vestibule when she fell, over
come by the smoke. The flames were on
the outside of the house, and in order
to reach the PROSTATE woman
it was necessary to pass through a perfect
sheet of flame, while the smoke was blind
ing. Pietro did not stop to consider the
chances, but he jumped through the fire as
if it had been summer shower he was
about to encounter. Taking the old lady
and her treasure in his arms he 6arted out
again, and when the open air was reached
he laid his burden down unframed. As
for himself he was singed up pretty badly
and his clothing was burned. Yesterday
he was sick from the adventure, but what
seemed to break him all up was the loss of
valuable meerschaum pipe, which cost
him nearly $40 and which he brought with
him from the land Of the Caesars. There
were hardly any observers of the act, no
applause, no flowers, and yet the whole
thing was very tidy and modest.

Don't Want to Compromise.

Sidney Baker, of Keene, Kearney county
Nebraska, holds two old Cedar Valley
railroad bonds of $1,000 each, known as
the old Minnesota state bonds, on which a
compromise of fifty cents on the dollar
has been negotiated and which the state
is taking up at that per centage as rapidly
as possible. Sidney writes, however, to
Attorney General Hahn that he is aware
of the so per cent. compromise, but that
his bords and the interest on them have
cost him too much to compromise, and
that he believes the state to be indebted
to him for the full amount of their face
and interest, all OF which becomes due in
December next and wants to know if the
state is gong to suffer fifty cent repudi-
alton of his bonds and thus injure its
reputation and soil its garments. Sidney
further writes seeking information as to
the names of four or five
prominent st. Paul lawyers
evidently limiting that he is going to en-
deavor to hoist the aforesaid Minnesota
garments with legal skirt LITTER if she
persists in her fifty cent garment dray.
If Sidney gets too belligerent the state will
have to sell few acres of its recently
patented swamp lands and give him a
supreme court wrestle. That soiled
clothes argument looks a triae like
Nebraska bluff.

STORM GOSSIP.
An Old Storm Fiend with a New Nance
WindfaIls and Cyclones Synonymous.

An Old Storm Fiend with New Name
WindfaIls and Cyclones Synonymous.
Several older citizens of Minnesota had
a gossip in st. Paul yesterday, among
whom were one or two from the southern
portion of the state. The topic under
consideration was that of cyclones, and
the result of the conference was the estab-
lishment of the fact that these spiral fends
of cloud and wind were no new thing under
the sun, though through rapid settlement
and the net work of Geographic and rail
way communication they were seemingly
more frequent and much moro thoroughly
noticeable than in the earlier days of our
countrY's history.
Notes being compared, the memory of
the older boys congregated showed by their
recollections that "windfalls" existed or had
existed in alllof the uorth.rl and western
states through all the ages, and their de-
scription of them, with large and small
areas of PROSTATE forest monarchs, showed
that these visitations from the skies were
now only an old-fashioned wind storm
clothed in more terrorizing name.
According to one witness, in 1859 one
of these cyclones struck grove of poplars
in Meeker county and cut down as with a
sickle several acres of large trees, leaving
the stumps like regiment in line about
five feet high from the ground.
Another stated that the track of a great
cyclone had been distinguishable on
both sides of Lake Pepln for
years, and the marks of its
devastation, as it shot from bluff to bluff,
were now plainly distingulshable from the
decks of a steamer.
Another gentleman stated that there
were indisputable marks below Red Wing
that that locality had been the track of
these fierce storms for very many years.
In connection with this he stated that in
the cyclone of 1859, some six miles below
that city, house was lifted from its
foundations and carried across the river,
while the wife of the owner escaped, hav-
ing taken refuge in the cellar, the husband
having been killed as he was attempting
to get into that evidently only safe retreat
in such visitations. It was
narrated that in the same storm horse
and wagon we're caught up and the wagon
never more seen. while the horse was dis
covered lodged in low tree with his hind
hoofs just touching the ground, but ready
for his half-peck of oats when released
from his unsought hammock.
Just here the discovery was made that it
was train time, and these sources of storm
information, more valuable to the wide
awake modern reporter than library with
thousand miles of shslved volumes, hast
lily grasped their busters and canes, and
made for those vehicles of transportation
which, like time, wait for no man.

Next weeks tragic revival will introduce
Mr.. John Mccullough to his st. Paul ad-
mirers, in round of his great portrayals
The sale of seats begins at the box Office
of the Opera house this morning. He will
receive cordial welcome, for he is en-
twined in the public's memory by the ten
drills of affection as well as by the branches
of his spreading fame. Mr., McCullough's
s'Virginius" is very noble and pathetic
performance. The actor draws real inspi-
ration from his theme. He combines great
physical power with exquisite innate refine
ment. He has the lions strength and the
sweetness and tenderness of woman. Mr.
Mccullough can be pathetic and heroic at
the same time. To be able to depict th {
pathos Of common man is high, but
not very rare, talent; the ability to illus.
trate the pathos of a hero or demi-god is
given only to the few elect of genius
"Virginius" is type of those heroic
figures of the classic age, beside whom
man seems plgmy. Mr.. Mccullough
will be supported by Manager W. NJ. Con-
ner's company, the most powerful ever or
ganized for tragedy. Its members have
lohg been associated with Mr.. Mccullough
and are in thorough accord with his meth.

Paid Twice for Their Lands.

Fred Malkenhuber, of Scott county, was
at the state house yesterday afternoon to
see if he could recover 1854 paid to Ring,
the defaulting treasurer of that county, for
his land, for which Ring made no return
to the state auditor. Fred, becoming
alarmed about the title of his home, at the
time of the discovery of Rings fraudulent
the $154 over again, and secured his pat
emit, and when Rings bondsmen were called
upon to pay the state the 1854 which Ring
had fraudulently taken from Fred, they
refused as the state was not out that
amount, having been remunerated for
its land by Fred's second payment. There
is about $40O which was thus paid by poor
farmers in Scott county to Ring, and who,
on his arrest for crookedness, became
scared, and fastened to the state treasurer
and paid for their homes second time for
fear of losing them. This amount,
stolen by Ring, the state authorities
are not authorized to refund, and Rings
bondsmen are as we'll not legally held for
the same. Of course these poor men who
have thus made double payment to secure
patents to their farms think the state
should reimburse them, and can not get
it into their heads that there is any reason
why the state officers should not de it. 1t
would seem to be the only correct way out
of the middle that the next legislature
should appropriate $500 to pay these
claims, which as they stand are practically
against nobody, and that the people of the
respective counties should look sharp for
men of known honesty as well as availa-
bility to command party votes in their
treasuryship selections.
