Amuscmcnt Notes.

A genuine attraction is to appear at the
National next week in the person Of the
bright and versatile actress, Miss Alice
Harrison, who is making great success OF
her new and amusing comedy, which is
aptly called "Hot Water" The Bati-
morcaps are wildly enthusiastic over 1t, and
the lady, with her exceptionally strong
company, will no doubt receive an equally
warm welcome in Washington. The play
is clever bit Of farce and comedy, inter
sperscd with numerous pretty songs, and
IFS fun, which is said TO he very fresh and
enjoyable, never ceases from beginning to
eud. The Brooklyn Union says that the
piece is indcscribably amusing, and that
nothing but commentator can be spoken
Of Miss Harrison. She can look young aud
pretty, and she gives herself up to fun
making with genuinely pleasing results to
all and uproafious consequences to very
great many. The Baltimore Sun says: "She
is capital actress, with great natural
powers. which have been fully developed by
thorough stage training"
The Nnth-Street Opera House will be
open as usual this evening, when Louise
Sylvester will appear in "a Hot Time" the
comedy billed for this week.
The Washington critic., 1886-05-13
The Asplnwnll Spiders.

The spiders that sometimes find their way
to this country concealed in banana
punches are fuzzy creatures about the size
of an average thumb, with several long,
black legs stuck into them, but they are not
80 dangerous as is generally supposed. A
fruitdealer at Macon, Ca, informs the
Telegraph Of that city that 1t is rare occur
renee for them to bite, but he added: "They
fight like wild cats, and they are high tenn
pered, but they never trouble anybody un-
less aroused and teasea. Although there
are millions of punches Of bananas brought
to this country every season, and many
thousand spider steals his way across with
them, you never hear Of any one being
stung. They are very peculiar things, and
differ widely in their habits from
the common spider of this coun-
try, which makes web like the
center-piece of a rising sun crazy
quilt They make kind of nest, and then
spread out lines of web in every direction.
On this single line, which is as small AS
silken thread, they run with ease hanging
to it by their long, flexible legs. When
danger threatens they have way of draw
Ing in the lines. and, huddling together,
await the attack Of the foe. When thus
disturbed they make prodigious leaps, and
arrange in circle around the nest, which
they seem to guard with jealous care. Then,
when provoked, they run all over the at
tacking party. They are game, and put up
an ugly fight"

The Typographical Arbitration.

The disagreements which recently arose
between the Associated Publishers Of this
city and Columbia Typographical Union,
owing to an advance of 25 per cent. in the
price of composition ordered by the union,
have been submitted to arbitration and will
probably be adjusted In a few days. The
arbitrators consist Of Mr.. John Ii. Oberly,
the Civil Service Commissioner, selected by
the union, and Mr.. Norman J. Colman, Com
missioner of Agriculture, selected by the AS
sociated Publishers, with General Horatio
King as umpire. The parties in interest ap.
peared before the Board Of Arbitration yes
terday and again this morning, and another
hearing will be held tomorrow. The meet
lngs are held at the Department Of Agricul-
ture.

The Catholic University.

meeting Of the Board of Directors Of
the Catholic University was held yesterday
at the residence of Archbishop Gibbons in

Gibbons, Williams, Ryan and Corrigan, who

eral meeting Of the board. Ten plans for
building the new university were submitted
by Archbishop Williams, and of these three
were selected, rs numbers |, 2 and 3. No.

Of $500, and No. 8, that Of 5000. After at
tending to other details the board adjourned
