The "Pinafore" Performances

The Theatre box Office opens at Il
O'Clock tomorrow morning for the sale OF
seats for the coming performances Of
"Pinafore." The opera has been
thoroughly rehearsed and with cast
including such names as those OF
Miss Edith Clawson, Miss Hawley, Mr..
B. B. Young and Mr.. Spencer, the
complete success of the entertainment is
a foregone conclusion. The musical part
is under the direction OF Professor Care
less, and the stage management is in the
hands OF Mr.. j. r. White. These gentle
men have shown in the past what they
can do in the way OF presenting an opera,
so that nothing need be said in anticipa-
ton of their coming triumph.
Due attention has been paid to COS
tunes, stage settings and scenery and it
is safe to say that all the beauties OF Gill
bert and Sullivan's greatest success will
be brought out to their fullest extent.

made the chairmen and secretaries
This will do for specimen.

The Democratic "ofticials," meaning
the appointing officers, do not organize
or reorgaLize the examining boards.
That is done by the Civil-Service Com
mission at Washington. 1t has entire
control of the machinery of examine
tions. The constitution of the examin-
ing boards here and in other cities
which the Tribune criticiscs was deter
mined by the Republican commission
of which Mr.. Eaton was the head, and
was not revolution of the existing
practice when the Democrats came into
Office" but was precisely the practice
always pursued. The members of the
board in the custom house here are ap.
pointed, not by Mr.. Hedden, as this
reckless writer says, but by the COM
| mission on the nomination of the Col
lector, Surveyor and Naval Officer, and
the present board was appointed by the
Eaton commission. The chairmen and
secretaries are not ''made' by the
democratic officials but by the COM
mission On the nomination of the men,
bers of the board itself, and the present
commission has refused to confirm
these where they are ''private sccre-
taries and chief deputies establishing
a rule for the first time that such
officers shall not serve in that capacity.
After utterly misrepresenting this
matter of organizing examining boards
the Tribune says: "The new Civil
Service Commission not only winked
at but openly allotted this method OF
evading the law. 1t changed the reg.
ulatioas to permit Collector Hedden to
GUST the old officers Of the examining
board" This though Collector He'd
den has nothing directly to do with
constituting the board or choosing its
officers and the commission has speci-
tically put stop to the practice, al
ways possible before, of having private
secretaries and special deputies serve
as the officers of the board. AS to
the eligible list and appointing officers,
the abuse came in under the Republic
an commission, and the present COM
mission is the first to propose making
the rules forbid the appointing officers
to have access to the list of cligibles.
In short, this commission is fighting
against abuses which it inherited and
which sprang up under the law before
the Democrats came into Office. The
only purpose of reckless misrepresenta'
tons of this kind is to discredit the re-
form itself and help to break it down
1t is mean kind OF warfare, but too
easily exposed to be effective. N. Y

A YOUNG NlMROD.
The Adventure of a Fifteen-Year-Oid Boy
with Huge Mountain Lien.

with Huge Mountain Lion.
There is young Nimrod living on
a ranch near Helena who is quite an ex-
pert with the rifle, and who has, in adj
dition to his expertness with powder
and ball, very large amount of in
domitable pluck, endurance and good
sense. His name is Ole Synnes, and he
is Just fifteen wears old. On the 18th
of February last father and son were
out in the mountains near their ranch,
taking out timber for fencing. The
boy, who had been sent on a short er-
rand, came running back, saying he
had seen the track Of large mountain
lion and was going to follow out the
trail. "Reminiscences from the father
were useless and in a few moments the
plucky boy started o: with II forty
four cal;ber Winchester rifle
to hunt the tierccst wild beast
in the Belt mountains. After
following the trail for mile and half
the boy lost 1t at the entrance of Il
wood. When about to give up the
search he cast his eyes upward and be-
held the beast couched upon the limb of
large fir. The head of the creature
was hidden from sight, so the
boy aimed at its fore-shoulder
and fired. The animal upon receiving
the fire sprang upward and climbed
still further up the tree, when from his
elevated perch he sent forth q series Of
roars that made the mountains resound
| with their echoes. Not in the least de-
tered by such fierce expostulations on
the lions part, the boy fired again and
this time brought the beast crashing
down through the branches. He lay
for few minutes partially stunned
upon the ground, and the dog, which
had hitherto kept in the background, SO
| to speak-perhaps because he couldn' t
climb tree-now rushed forward and
attacked the wounded lion. A power
full blow with one of the immense paws
sent that dog on an excursion through
the atmosphere that had Il wonderful
effect in cooling his enthusiasm. In a
moment the lion sprang to his feet and
was going up the nearest tree like a
rocket. He got on the loftiest limb and
endeavored to conceal his body behind
the friendly shelter; but he left a por-
ton of his head exposed, and the boy a
second later lodged bullet in his brain.
The father had heard the uproar from
where he was working, and fastening
to the spot came upon the scene Just in
time to be at the death. This big fellow
measured scant ten feet, and weighed
nearly three hundred pound.-F. Keogh
