Quite sensation was caused on a recent
evening in a London drawing room Of well
know leader of English political society, says
a correspondent of an American journal.
The hostess had gathered around her the
shining lights of the Conservative world, and
at midnight, when the buzz of conversation
was highest there came a sudden and mys-
terious silence. All looked up to discover
the cause, and saw standing in the doorway
an old gentleman with wrinkled face and a
grey curl on his forehead, with eve glass in
hand, ogling the crowd. The look, gait, curl,
altitude, stoop, eye glass, were those of Dis
rael, first and last Earl of Beaconsfield. The
awestruck silence continued for some mo-
ments, and many in the ascend lage thought
for a moment that the wrath of the dead
premier had returned to set matters right in
the Conservative camp. When the old man
mingled with the crowd, however, and was
introduced, it was found that he was Sir
John Macdonald, Premier Of Canada. an ex-
act counterpart of the late earl, who enforces
the likeness by his manner, dress, etc.

The QUESTION Of a Summer Opera Season.
The indications for a big house at the
Grand tonight are most favorable, as our
musical loving people are anxious to see the
FIRST production Of the latest comic opera,
THE BegEar STUDENT" which created such
ftlTOre in the eastern cities. The opera will
be presented by the Thompson Opera COM
pany, a new organization to our theater
goers, Though including several artists we'll
known here,) but one that has been greeted
with crowded houses at every performance in
Minneapolis. The Journal said last Tuesday:
''The Brggar Student opened at the Grand
last evening, and several hundred delighted
people found out 'Eho Thompson IS, a query
which arose from the throat Of the
SUNDAY russler."
Mr.. w. A. Thompson, the manager
Of the Beggar Student company,
IS an enterprising, affable young man, re-
Gently from Australia, where be has managed
numerous attractions and opera houses in
Melbourne, Sidney and Adelaide. Mr..
Thompson has entered into arrange ments
With John A. McCaull, Of the Casino, New
York, TO play ali the great successes of that
house, and next season will bring to St. Paul
the charming comic opera "Falka, now in
the fourth month Of its success in Boston,
and will star Miss Carrie Godfrey, a hand
some and gifted English artistic. Mr.. Thomp-
son is also agitsting the question Of sum-
mer opera in ST. Paul and Minneapolis,
playing three performances in each city for
a season of twelve OF fifteen weeks. His idea,
is a good one, and viii undoubtedly
be appreciated by lovers Of music in this
section. and prove profitable to the managers
of the two houses. His idea is to organize a
strong company of thirty people selected
from the best talent nov on the road who are
at liberty during the summer months, and
play a repertoire OF twelve or fifteen popular
operas, at moderate prices, twenty-five and
fifty cents. In St. Louis, Chicago, Baltimore,
New Orleans, Montreal and other large
cities, summer night opera aud concerts are
quite fashionable, ami each city supports a
splendid company. AS is well known, St
Paul and Minneapolis are growing in favor
with summer tourists, aud there is no doubt
that good company, playing choice operas
as the Merry War, Princess Trebizonde,
/ Queens Lace Handkerchief, Falka, the Beg
gar Student, Iolauthe, Little Duke, ETC., dur
ing the pleasant summer nights, would re-
eeive the support of the best society of the
two cities.

This proceeding Is criticised with some
sharpness by some secular journals, as lack
Ing discretion and propriety. Such volun-
tary vows are not binding, any longer than
the person taking them may choose 20 abide
by them. A journal mildly remarks that It
may be well TO observe, though the PROPOSE
ton is almost self evident that such VOWS
have no legal or secular force whatever.
They are the same kind Of obligation as a
man makes when he Is ordained an Episco-
pal or Presbyterian minister. He binds
himself to believe certain dogmas and when
he ceases to believe them he resigns bis
ministry, or can do so If he likes.

considerable portion Of bis life in 3 gloomy
debtors prison.
Mr. Stoddsrd presented one after another
Of Dickens famous characters and briefly
related the striking events Of their story,
while the strreoptiean pictured inns, streets,
eathedrsls and shaded country lanes. The
trip took the listener to Gad's Hill, the last

A BOGUS LETTER.
Which Does Anything But Tell the
Truth.


SIT would not be easy to cram more mis-
statements into half a column than the
Pioneer Press did this morning in reference
to my recent visit to Albany" said P. H.
Kelly to 4 GLOBE man yesterday.
The remark was made in reference TO a
letter which appeared in the p. p. yesterday
and purported to have been written at Al
bany by one Fl. d. Cunningham. In re-
Spouse to a request to point out the false

AZ never lived in Plattsburg, and 1 never
knew Mr.. Tilden, personally, until the cam
paign of 1850. There was no accident at al
about my going to Albany. / went TO New
York at the request of prominent members
of the Iroquois club at Chicago, for the pur-
pose of meeting Mr.. Doaue, of Chicago, and
going to Albany to invite Gov. Cleveland to
visit Chicago. Members of the
National committee from Indiana, Wisconsin
and Iowa were also invited. We went to
Albany and secured Gov. Cleveland's prom
Use that after the Inauguration he would visit
Chicago. We talked no politics whatever,
and if had il would have been absurd for
me to oppose Wisconsin when it is well
known that l was warmly in favor of Col.
Villas for chairman of the national cOnven-
ton and would do anything could for him.
Besides, Minnesota has no claim or eandi-
date for a member of the cabinet. We were
not entertained by Col. Lamont, but merely
called at his house TO ascertain if
we could meet the governor
at that time, it being Thanksgiving day.
Anyone who knows anything Of politics,
knows that Carter Harrison and the Iroquois
club do not harmonic, being opposed to
each other on the tariff and at the last club
banquet they shut Of Carter from making a

SOME affect to think that the Democratic
party and its newly elected President are
pledged to the one term dogma. The party
is bound or handicapped by no such eonsid-
Grafton. Those sturdy Democrats, jefferson
and Jackson, were the most powerful and
far reaching in their influence of any known
to the history of the government, each served
two terms, and there is no reason why the
example set by their administrations in re-
gard to tenure of Office should not be followed.
Whether the new President will be candi-
date for reelection, will depend upon the
course, character and success of his admin
istration. This is matter that will take
care of itself and need not be discussed now.
1t may well be conceived and expected, how
ever, that from the developed characteristics,
capacity and temperament, inhexible honesty
and manly Independence, that the new
President may have no opposition within his
own party TO denomination in 1888.

'Fire-fy Gallop," by Meyer, and ''Gavotte, -
'Transposition of Sweet Bye and
Bye" of his own authorship
were particularly charming. He
also showed himself a very proficient vocalist
and his humorous selections, "The old Brandy
Bottle" Laughing Song" and Counting
Sunday Night" were excellent and brought
down the audience with storming applause.
The Duet, Embarrassment" by Mr.. and
Mrs. I. H. Lyles, was charmingiy sang and
secured them a recall. ''Fair as Starr by
Mrs. JAS. Murray, and the "LOver and the
Bird'' by Miss Addie Liggins were heartily

thereof provided a fine repsst in an ante
