FORD'S OPERA HOUSE.-The unfortunate In

Martha" as the opening opera Of the Ideal
change of bill was given in the evening papers
of yesterday, nor indeed until after the fall of
the curtain on the first act last night 1t is not to
be Wondered at if the audience felt some slight
disappointment and resentment and sat out the
performance without displaying the enthusiasm
arouses. The fact is "Fatinitza' as rendered By
this company no longer possesses the charms
which once made it theiT T, most popular repre-.
opera III the true meaning Of that phrase, and
demands careful and spirited acting as well as
good singing to Insure Its success. The comedy
of the piece is as genuine and as full favored
as anything the dramatic stage, and slip
shod, bungling treatment cannot but detract
materially from the enjoyableness of the enter
tainment, however strong the cast may be vo-
calIy. Mr. Herndon Morsell. who seems to luz
prove with each successive visit to " ashington,
did the part of Julian Hardy very acceptably.

season. Until after the middle of January the hills
were brown and bare, wheels rumbled In the
streets of Bangor, and the lumbermen could
haul no logs for want of snow. Now, however,
everth1ngis changed, and there's 50 much snow
that the Superabundance of 1t causes almost 81
much inconvenience as the former lack of it did.
The icemen complain that 1t costs more to keep
the snow off than it does to cut the ice. Huge
drifts are piled up everywhere. Train schedules
have been cancelled, and stage coaches have
been days in getting from Bangor to nearby
country towns, In some instances going through
fearful experiences. In the city great ridges Of
snow are piled up in the cutters, reaching al

An Old Trick Revived.

THE WAY SOME PEOPLE MAKE SIX BANK NOTES
OUT OF FIVE.
From the n Y. Herald.
There is an old swindling device which con-
siSts in cutting bank notes into strips and then,
in putting them together, save enough from each
to make an additional note. This ingenious
process, technically known as ''sweatingy' has
been applied to the United States silver certif-
Gates.
The discovery was made yesterday at the SUBJ
treasury by Mr.. Marion, who has charge Of that
department.. A batch Of ten dollar silver certif-
icates was received from a Wall street bank on
Friday and was redeemed. Yesterday it was
found that several of the notes, which on q cur
sorry handling appeared to have been accident
reality been subjected to the sweating process
above alluded to.
The law permits the Treasury department to
redeem mutilated Till stits face value If three
vantage of this law. The certificates were first
cut in five pieces and tlen by taking one piece
from five differ ccrtificates,a sixth certificate
was made. Thus the five genuine certificates
would each lack one-f1fth, but the sixth or bogus
certificate would apparently have enough pieces
pasted together to make it complete. An the
certificates were, therefore. until the trick was
discovered, redeemabie at their face value. I'm
fortunately for the swlndler, the ten dollar GER
titicates have the numbers Of each engraved in
various places on the note in very small figures.
OF course the dOctOred notes were made Of frag-
ments containing numbers which did not cor
respond 1t was this discovery which exposed
the fraud.
THE NOTES AT THE TREASURY DEPARTMENT.
A STAR reporter ascertained to-day that some
of the manipulated notes had been presented
at the Treasury department for redemption.
