''Do tell as about the Van Zsndt trouble"
said representative OF the Ssn Francisco
Chronicle &c a gentleman just from Paris.
1T is hard toexplsin that. Americans can
not possibly understand the impetucus tenn.
per OF the Partisan public. Demonstrations
that weuld seem terrific here are merely nat.
Ursl expressions Of feeling over there. Per
haps the Parisians have been unkind to Van
Iandt, since, after ell. she lie a woman, bat
looking at ii in auo her way, you can not
blame them. They were kind 10 her q long
time, patient with all her oaprices, but f1-
ally. when she deliberately insulted the pub
lie, the public resented it,"
Then she"
"She did. At least so they affirm in Paris.
The opera | believe, was The Barber CT S.
vile and il was plain 10 the audience from
the first that Mile. Van Zandt had enjoyed
very gosd dinner-s regular French din
ner, IS they say here. l can not spsak
from observation, but in Paris every one
ssys that Rosina merely misunderstood her
roe"
How SOP
"Why, you remember in The Barber.
that Count AmalviYa returns 10 Rosinas
houee apparently in q state OK hilarious in
toxicstion. They say in Paris that Van
Zsndt thought she had to pay AmslViya,
and went to considerable expense to pre-.
pare for the part 60 much so that the real
Amalviva vas frezsn with horror and forgot
TO be tpsy a. all"
"Will she evsr make peace with the Pari.
!. sians2"
st is rot likely. The public there are
either all for You or all against you, There
is no halfway about Il. Shs thought they
would forgive anything, but IL she mad IN
derstoOd PGIisieus better she wsuid never
have tried it. TSey believe she has insallsd
them. Tefsoting discredit upon hsrself, her
profession aud the publie dignity. This
is with the Parislsns Smaiter OF conviction,
and her case must be hopeless.

AIDING TaE PRECEDENT.
sIinHe sotans Reducing the Work of Filling
Offices to Business Principles.

Washington special
While the whole country is talking about
civil service reform and President Cleveland
is moving slowly in making appointments
there are two men in Minnesota who pro-
pose 10 take short cut at results and reduce
the work of filling the Offices 70 business
principles. They have accordingly published
on advertisement which ls 2 political curiOs-
ity. Copies have bssn sent to the heads OF
the departments and 10 the President. 1t
Iea0s IS follows:
To ali whom il NAV concern:
ia order IN expedite applications for Office GER
tain form alities should be observed, and appli-
oants VIII cid their cases b observing the follow
ing: The chic point 10 be considered is that the
candidate must De well ino0rsed by the leading
Democrats OF his locality, aud the candidates
character must be satisfactory 70 the people WITH
whom he will be ErO0ghk IN con tact, and ne must
also be qualified TO I'll the position sought for.
His IaperE should be formally drawn and signed
By the member OF the state Genital Committee
from his judicial district, a. we'll as the Democrat
&c candidate Tor Congress from his district at the
late election. The paper thus endorsed should be
forwarded 10 the Hon. N. DoTan Chairman of the
State Central Committee. or the Hon. =. II. Kelly,
member OF The National Committee at ST. Paul.
Committee.
p. H. KELLY, member Democratic National COM
mittee.
Kelly figured at Chicago as an original
Cleveland man, and was through his inhu
ence that the delegation went to Cleve-
land at the right time. He has been in
Washington looking oIter patronage.
The best evidence that brokerage in offices
here is not broken up under the new civil
service reform era Is found in the newspaper
advertisements. The following appeared in
one of yesterdays papers
will give $500 for position in sny branch OF
the Government service that will evade the civil
service,
A man who has passed civil service examina-
ton will pay onet third salary while employed for
position under Government
gentleman with good endorsements will give
500 in cash Tor position in one OF the depart
ments paying 500 10 5000 per year.
There are good reasons for believing that
such advertisers often succeed IN getting the
places tLey seek. They will continue to
succeed until many jobbers who are retained
IN the departments under the Eaton system
ave turned out and honest men are put in
thor places.

The Beginning of Roller Skating

The Beginning Of Roller Skating.
When lie prophetic" was first pro-
duced in Paris (says the New York
WORLD the skating scene, though high
" desirable on account of it's novelty.
came near being eliminated because of
the impossibility of having real ice and
skaters upon the stage. The difficulty
was finally overcome and the novelty
made available by the ingenuity of the
property man, who conceived the idea
of roller-skates, and thus to a theatre
subordinate the world owes the pleasure
it desires from roller-skating. The
pastime was not, however, introduced
into private life by the Parisians, the
French being VIGOROUSLY slow in adopt
ing the new and untried. In 1847
the old Covent Garden Theatre, Lon
don, was transformed into the Roval
Italian Opera House, and Gle Prophetic
put upon the time honored
boards, and for the first time the
British public beheld roller-skating.
Although they went almost wild with
enthusiasm over the skating scene,
they look no more kindly to roller
skating as pastime than the French
had done. How and when roller-skat-
ing crept into this country, is not known
to the writer, but it has taken thirty-fve
years since its advent into London 10
bring it to its present state Of pop
ularity.

The Panama Settlement,

Secretary Whitney of the Navy sent The fol-

your steadfast maintenance of this govern
ments position on the isthmus. The treaty
guarantees the protection of the transit equally
by this government and by Colombia. Meas
ures necessary to effect this will be supported.
Have a sufficient force at Panama ready, in
case of need. Any act of the Colombian forces
involving the destruction or embarrassment of
the transit is in violation of their treaty with
