whipping the wrong Man.

The town of Manning, Carroll county.
Iowa, is stirred up by first-class sensa
tion. A prominent business man named
William Morrow, while walking upon
the street this morning, was accosted by
two women, who threw cayenne pepper
in his eyes, completely binding him.
One Of the women then, with horse
whip, thrashed her helpless victim with
all her power. They were both arrested
and dsarmed. The women recently re-
ceived letters asking then, to stay away
from the skating rink. as their presence
was Objectionable, and Morrow was be-
lieved by them to be the author of the
letter, hence this act OF Vengeance. 1t
has since been learned that the propri-
etor of the rink sent the letters, and
Morrow had no hand in it.

A Song Queens Picture.

Mr.. Labouchere, the brilliant editor
Il London Truth, has been making
ournslistic observation Of Miss Emma
Nevada, the bright opera ic star which
tose in the West aud is now shining
5ver Paris. The youthful song-bird
took part in church concert almost be.
fore she could talk, and she played
Cinderella in little comedy at an age
when the majority of children are in the
arms of their nurses. In March, 1871,
she sailed from this city in the rrisia
for Germany, where her father, Dr;
Wixom. had sent her for the purpose OF
completing her musical education with
DIR. AbeiI. who had an academy IN
Rerliu. When she arrived in that city
DR.. Abel was dead and his widow was
unable to continue the institution. Miss
Nevada was AFRAID that II she teiegraphed
to her father she would be ordered home
on the next steamer. Ehrlich, the
musical critic, advised her to go to
Vienna and place herself under Nine
Marchesi, who, in his opinion, was
the first professor of singing in the
world" The now famous cantatrice re-
NAMED with her two years and q half
She made her debut as light soprano
at Mapleson's opera house in London.
From there she went 10 Italy to study
Italian and the scenl. Next she made
a tour of the italian cities, winning de-
served fame wherever she sang. Subse-
quently she appeared at Prague and
Berlin and then ut the Opera Comique
in Paris.
Emma Nevada, says Mr.. Labouchere,
'has American resolution and dire CT
ness. In all other respects she is Irish.
Her features are irregular, but, taken as
whole, they are pleasing. They never,
perhaps, expressed all ill-natured feeling
that was not called out by just anger.
Certainly they never expressed a low
sentiment. The eyes are of dark vio-
let, full, set under wellmodeled lids,
and eloquent. Miss Nevada has strong
heart, which beams out in her face, con-
quers sympathy, and gives suavity to
her manners. Her teeth are white,
even and not too large. She has also O
line head of nut brown hair, a graceful
figure, and delicate plant hands. II
would delight All Irish Nationalist to
hear her say: My mother was from
Cork, and her name was Kate Without
having kissed the famous stone, she
understands blarney. What do you
think OF this compliment paid her by Q
country woman Of the late Mrs. Wixom
'The day first met you, the friend will
whom l was asked me when you left vi
if had noticed your eyes. 10 be sur'
l did, ! answered. should have re
marked them a mile away, they are 81
