WASHINGTON January l0.-The naval ap
preparation bill appropriates Sl4, $50, ~ for
the Navy Department for the fiscal year
1885. This is S9l3,96 less than last year.
There was no general debate on the bill and
it was read for amendment. The amount
appropriated by the diplomatic and consu-
lar bill is 81, l,I9O,8S5 or $432,29l less than
the estimates. An item of 1924, 900 asked
for in the estimates for resurveying the
boundary line between the United States
and Mexico was omitted. In speaking to
motion made Mr.. Robinson said he was
opposed to paying big salaries to seud Amer
leans abroad to make fools Of themselves
and forget their Americanism. He was op-
posed to appropriating money to pamper
lot of incurable snobs. There was no use
for American ministers abroad, except to
degrade their government. He did not want

PARIS, January lO.-The scenes about
the entrance of court the day of the trial OF
Madame Clovis-Hugue', were in the highest
degree. dlsgraceful When the doors opened
the most unseemly crowding and crushing
occurred, everybody in the unmannerly
throng making frantic efforts to get inside.
Visitors carried luncheons and went pre-
pared to stay all day. A hum of conyer-
sation, enlivened by frequent salieS
of wit and outbursts of laughter, pervaded
the court room, greatly detracting from the
dignity of the proceedings The papers

The revolver is coming to take the place of

that France has entered upon downward
track. In this the journal only voices the
opinion Of many pessimistic observers OF

KANSAS CRY, Mo, January l0.-The

New York to join her husband. She bears
her trial with great fortitude. Phelan is de-

quick tempered and fond of notoriety. His
visit to New York was the result OF a recent
interview published here, but opinions differ as
to whether he went in response to sum-
mons there for a purpose of his own. 1t is
generally supposed, however, that there was
some misunderstanding regarding the inter
view and he desired to cleal it up.

AT THE THEATRE.
Lucia" Sung Before q Fine House Last
NiCht.

Donizetti's melodIOus opera, "Luoia di
LammermOor," was sung last night at
the Theatre to a fair downstairs house."
Taken as a whole the performance was
satisfactory. Mile. Aida Narena, the
leading soprano IN the cast, has a sweet,
clear voice OF considerable power, and
she sang with good effect the part Of
"Lucia." Mile. Earena is not lacking in
dramatic ability and her acting was very
pleasing.
The gem OF the opera was Lucia's solo,
incense is burning" and IL was warmly
applauded. The lines, "by the fountain
with me sit thee aWnile' In Lucia's sOlil-
oquy Immediately preceding the solo, were
finely rendered, as the smile on her face
gave way to q look OF terror as the dread
ful phantom rose before her mad imagina-
ton.
sig. Arturo MarchesPs strong baritone
voice was well-sUited for the character Of
Ashton" the brother Of Lucia" All of
the numbers which he rendered were es-
pecially good and spirited.
Sig. G.Taglierl is pleasing light tenor,
and appeared 10 try to make a good i'm
preston. In part less heavy he would
doubtless acquit himself we'll. AS
'Edgardo' he was creditable, and his
meritorious execution of "a shelter soon
to give me-" in the last act, was appreci-
ated by the audience.
Sig. Gill, "a "Artuso," and Sig
Bologna, as "RaimOndo," sang their
parts very well.
The passage, "What terrible moment"
by Arthur, Raymond, Alice, Norman, and
the chorus, was one II the rettiest airs OF
the opera, and was twice encOred. The
orchestra was at times too strong, but
generally effective. The audience was
fairly demonstrative throughout.

Americus hreans Busineaa.

The Americas people are stirred up on
the proposed railroad from there to Savan-
nah. The heavy business and the cotton
men of Americus, says the Recorder, are
very anxious that the road should be

assist IL with liberal contributions A
prominent cotton man is quoted as saving
''If 1 knew 1t would insure the building
OF the road, l would be willing TO give %
per cent. OF what / am worth, for believe
that in two years it would pay me back.
The matter, as il stands to Americus, is
just this: The small towns which are be-
ing built up around here are taking away
our wagon trade, and nothing but direct
route TO Savannah, which will give us
competing freight rates, will restore 1t to
us. Then we can sell by wholesale to the
country stores, who now buy in Macon
and other places.

road reached this place, you would have
a compress; you could raise the price of
cotton nearly 1c,, and lower the price OF
groceries in proportion. Real estate
would be in demand, for, being the termi-
nus of the line, and having so many natu-
raj advantages, the population OF the CITY
would Immediately begin to increase.
With such feeders as the Americus, Pres

that you might build, IL would bring you

When there is a road built to Savannah
