NEW HAVEN OPERA HOUSE.

MT. Horace Wall will open the third sea- son under his management at this opera house tonight with James O'Neil in Dumas great play of Monte Cristo, supported by an excellent company. Mir. O'Neil needs no recommendation, as he is well known to the public as powerful and superior actor of marked ability and talent. Monte Cristo continues to be greatly popular. Among the many improvements made by Manager Wall during the past season, of which we have spoken, the one which will be specially ap- preciated by fremen and others is the plac- ing of fire alarm signal on the stage, so those in the house can hear all alarms of fire. MT. Wall has secured c. T. Langley, foreman of steamer 4, for master mechanic, and MT. Langley will always be accompanied behind the scenes by two mem bers of the New Haven fire department. MT. Wall again desires to assure the public that he has contracted with attractions of the highest character only, who appear only at the frst-class theaters. He states that the prices will remain as before, 75 and 50 cents for the reserved seats and 25 cents otherwise. ''Monte Cristo" will be repeated Tuesday night.

Provisions Of the BILL passed by the
House Of Representatives.
Congressman O'Neills labor arbitration
bill, as passed by the House, provides that

railroad corporation and its employees in
any State or Territory or the District Of
Columbia the differences may be submitted
to a board Of arbitration of three men,
bers-one selected by the corporation,
o second selected by the employees and the
third selected by the other two. This board
shall have all the powers and privileges Of
United States commissioners, appointed
under tho authority Of the Federal courts,
and shall administer oaths, summon wit
who refuse to furnish them for contempt.
The third member of this Board, who has
been selected by the two interested parties or
their representatives, shall be president Of
the board, and any finding or award madeby
a majority of the board shall be Of the same

The New York Times declares that the

The New York Times declares that the
frauds practiced upon farmers by knaves
of various kinds have become so rreva-
lent and notorious that even the agricul-
tural department at Washington has
turned its attention to the subject. In
vestigation has been made in the Bohe-
mian oat swindlc, which has grown into
such proportions as to become serious
disaster. In some counties in Ohio where
the operators have worked most indus
triously as much as $4,000 in notes OBJ
tanned by fraudulent representations has
been turned into the banks for collection
in only one county, and, Notwithstanding
the publicity given to the frauds during
three or four years past, the present
season is more prolific of victims than
the previous one. Farmers are induced
to pay ten dollars bushel for the seed
of this worthless grain on the prom
ise to take the produce at the same price.
A note is given in payment for the seed,
and bond is given that the oats will be
called for when ready. The note is good
because the farmer has farm to make it
good, but the bonds are worthless be-
cause the maker is not to be found when
they mature.

The superiority of American fun is &C.
knowledged by an editorial writer in the
London Neus. He holds that there are
only two kinds of American humor to
which the Englishman objects. The
"jokes about courting between lovers
seated on snake fence, or about Sunday
schools and quaint answers there given
to Biblical questions, leave us cold" BE
declares that in literature, when English.
men want to be even Historically di.
verted, they must, as rule, buy their
fun from the American humorist. "We
arc not at present." he says, "a bolster.
ously comic lot of geniuses, and if you
see the tears running down the eyes of
fellow-countryman reading in railway
carriage, if he be writhing with mirth
too powerful for expression, the odds are
that he has got hold of Yankee book.
It is unsafe to recommend any writer as
very funny. No man can ever tell how
his neighbor will take a joke. But it
may safely be said that authors who
really tickle their students are ex-
tremely rare in England exceptas writers
for the STAGE"

The COffin.Making Industry.

There are thirty-four coffin factories in
the United States, and they turn out an
average of $50 coffins and caskets day.
The largest factory is in Cincinnati; it
covers acres Of ground and it's shop facil-
tiles are so great that it manufactures
everything necessary to complete fun
eral, except corpses. Anything from
tack up to hearse can be seen in process
of manufacture on their premises. Next
to Cincinnati, Chicago has the largest
coffin factories. The biggest coffin kept
in stock by one Chicago house is six feet
nine inches in length and has an opening
of twenty eight or twenty-nine inches.
The average opening is only eighteen or
nineteen inches, and the average long
coffin is six feet four inches. The long
est coffin turned out by any factory is
nine-footcr. in which the dignitaries of
the Catholic church are buried. Such a
coffin was used at the burial of Cardinal
McCloskey, the extra length being re-
quired for his crown which he wore in
death. About twenty four hours were
taken to put this coffin together, but any
ordinary coffin, that is. coffin of extra
large size, no matter what its cost or the
character of the trimmings or upholstery,
can be put together from the rough
boards in three hours at the utmost
