DISABLED TRUTH.

The lighthouse keepers in some localities
Of the sea coast aver that often immense
flights Of sea birds ..circling above the lights
impair their efficiency, and prove very en-
barrassing to those who would keep such
guiding signals at their best warning bright
ness.
1t is an excellent illustration of DR.. Bur-
chard's dilemma. For speaking the truth as
he believed 1t, and as he was satisfied that
the party Of his utilization believed, be has
been set upon by every bird Of evil omen,
from far and wide with the croaking aud
tapping that would hide the light which this
keeper held to religiously and politically, and
thought to have gratefully acknowledged.
Now he knows the penalty for speaking the
truth. 1t is almost as grievous as the cele-
brated Biblical instance of the condign cut

Quiet Thanksgiving at Washington.


WASHINGTON, Nov. PA Sabbath like
stiffness has prevailed here to-day. When
the departments are closed IL seems as II the

little demonstration this afternoon, when the
Gre department made its annual parade.
The churches were pretty well attended, as
they generally are in Washington. In two
of them former Chicago pastors
preached. DR.. W. w. Patton, president
OF Howard university, and formerly pastor
of the First Congregational church, Chicago,
preached in the Congregational church a ser
mon devoted entirely to the praise Of agricul-
ture and agriculturslists, dwelling on the
dependence Of every branch Of trade and
traffic on the products Of the
soil, the elevated moral tone of
rural communities and moral, intellectual
and physical benefits flowing from labor on
the soil. Rev. Wm. Alvin Bartlett, formerly
Of Plymouth Congregational church, Chicago,
preached in the New York avenue Presbyier-
ian church from St. Paul's words: "A eItl-
zen Of no mean city," upon which found&-
ton he constructed 3 fervid euogy

That grand old favorite opera II Trovatore
Was given a fine reception at the matinee
yesterday, and the rendition was such az TO
satisfy the most critical musician II served
to introduce to the St. Paul public Miss Laura
Bellini. who essayed the splendid role OF
Lenors. She produced q 6ne impression,
and was awarded an enthuslls reception
Her voice is a round, fun, rich soprano Of
rather q pezzo quality, and very
even throughout the entire register.
Her conception Of the character was sdmira-
bic, aud she displayed in her yocAlIsm
thorough schooling and con cientous devotion
to her studies. Lizzie Annandale made a
grand Azucena, looking, singing and acting

as Count Luna and completed With F4brini,
who was in excellent voice, a quartette of
rare merit aud even balance. The fsmil-
iaritT with the score probably made the or
ehestra careless, for their work was by no
means what it SHOULD have been.
KING FOR DAY.
This delightfully."- romantic opera called out
last evening the largest audience OF the week
thus far, and well we're the auditors repaid.
The composition literally bubbles over with
melody and its rendition was entrusted to
competent representatives,. The part Of Ne
mea afforded Abbott grateful opportunity
for displaying those eonsummate grsces of
voice and action by which she originally
gained the esteem aud devotion of St. Paul
people. Her score s0Ou nds ia delicate aud
intricate vocalism, and affords the COM
pietesi scope for her flexible voice.
The combination. Of pretty embellishments,
often daintily seconded by a skillfuily man
ipulated auts, awakened great enthusiasm
aud PROVOKED frequent encOres. Castles
part is one admirably dited for hin and an
actor ol such great ability as he possesses is
required for but seldom found its proper
portrayal Tie music Is In the range Of the

ILLEGAL FENCING OF THE PUBLIC LANDS.
In my last annual report called attention
to numerous complaints made concerning
the Illegal fencing of the public land, and
urged some legislstian by which such illegal
fences might be summariy removed without
the delay and expeuseo of suit in court. I
regret to say that congress has so far failed
to take action on this subject. A number
of suits have been instituted by the depart
ment Of justice at the request Of this depart-
ment, to compel the parties to remove such
fences, but such proceedings involve much
time and delay, and il the parties defend
ants desire to continue in possession Of
such fenced lands, appeals will be taken
70 the supreme court Of the United
States, and the government put to great ex-
pense and the land withheld from occupation
under the settlement laws. thrust that some
legislation may be had that will enable the
department In summary way to destroy
these fences where the builders refuse 10
take them down. 1t has been claimed by
some that the power exists in the depart
ment to destroy these fences as distractions
on the public lands. II this is so the depart
ment has no means at its disposal to pay the
expenses OF such removal, neither has the
department OF justice. Authority should be
given to remove such distractions, and pro-
visions made for the payment Of the per-
sons employed to do such work.

EX-SENATOR BRUCE, of Mississippi, at pres
ent Register OF the Treasury, although act
Ing with the Republican party has one of the
best minds among the colored men of the
country. When the Republican supreme
court pronounced the civil rights law un con-
sututional the respect Mr.. Bruce entertained
Tor Republican expression of regard for the
negro race was greatly shaken, and he
plainly said SO. Regarding Mr.. Blaine's
speech since the election Mr.. Bruce ia
equally outspoken. He says that there is all
possible harmony between the whites and
blacks in the south, and the charge of poli-
teal intimidation and violence he denoup ces
as absolute and uponaliied
1alsehoods." The charges from the sans
quarter regarding Gov. Cleveland's southern
policy he says are "demogogical in the ex-
treme, and wholly unwarranted, and will be
the cause of mental distress among tho
colored people of the south.n Summing nm
the Augusta utterance as a whole. Mr.. Rrnce
declares that it has ''fomented a new antag-
onlsm, and lowered Mr.. Blaine in popular
esteem more than any other act of his life. -
1t is hopeful sign of the times when a man
ike Bruce holds to such just and wise onin-
Ions and has the courage to utter them. No
thing could be better calculated to rebuke
and neutralize the Republican spirit of intim-
ldatlon, sectionalism and Injustice

Josedy is now considered the worlds greatest
pianist, in fact his playing is considered the
acme OF perfection.
The programme at this, his second and last
appearance here, will consist Of entirely diff

ing, which held his large audience thoroughly
spell-bOund. Josefy's concerts are not
only full OF delight for those unsteady edu-

but also 70 the novice for the wonder sure TO
be excited al the multiplicity Of tones which
he extracts from the instrument, especially
what may be designated As its singing quail
ity.
The New York Herald SAYS:
"Joseiy's playing never suggests the idea
OF dilieu.ues overcome. His execution IL
quiet, sclf-conttined and self-assursd and
marvelOus!y refined. Nothing could excel
the deiicacy and the precision OF his touch,
the ciearnrss and purity of his tone. He is
not one OF your pounding pianIsts. He
makes no fuss about MS works. But he is
in no way lacking in strength or individual
lily, aud his playing is sympathetic and earn
est as well as refined with = sparkling quail
ity, that gives to his Torture the beauty Of q
birds clear song. His technical methods are
altogether admirable. Not only in the
wonderful delieAey OF his runs and trills, but
I'm the nice balance Of parts, the harmonious
shading, his playing is exceptionally fine,
and in the mOlern school of piano 'virtuos-
Ity' We are not likely 10 hear any more highly
polished work than MS. Certainly II was a
great treat TO listcn 10 him last night"
