the music of his "Trovatore," which had
been put ON the music stand as a gentle
ovation, locked the piano. and said to the
son of the hotelkeeper. "Take me to the
place whence can see the deepest abyss. +"
The young man, somewhat abashed Mt the
proposal. made in solemn tones. led Verdi
to the top Of the Marienberg, whence the

AN ACTORS SAD DEATH.

Dissipation Had Wrecked His Brilliant
 Career-Comnitted to Jail.
 MINNEAPOLIS, Mh,n, Feb 1.-An old man, neglected, poor and harmlessly insane, died at the county jail as the sun rose yesterday morning. Monday night he was examined by Police Surgeon Kelly as to his sanity, and by him ordered to the county jail tempora- rily. In the morning when the turnkey went to his room he complained of feeling badly, drank cup of coffee that was brought him, and in a moment gasped once or twice for breath, and fell back a corpe. The name of the man whose life ended thus miserably was Professor William Mcfarland, and in a sense he was one of the notable men of the day. He was an actor whose earlier career had been full of triumphs, but whom time and dissipation had wrecked, until his later days told but little of his early genius. He had be en in this city for two years, and for the past few weeks had been engaged about the Fence opera house doing odd work and eking out a scanty living through the kindness of Manager Bock William Mcfarland was one of the oldest actors in the country, and one of the best. For ffty-fve years he was on the stage, and he was at one time recognized as one of the leading men in the country. He supported Macready when the great English man was in this country, and later the elder Booth, John Adams, Edwin Forest, and all of the old timers. Of late years he had beer disinclined toward travel because of his age.

MANY IDLE CONNECTS.
Work at Sing Sing Has Been Suspended
 for an Indefinite Period.

SING SING, N. Y., Feb. 1.-The failure of the legislature to pass the prison appropria- tion bill is working great mischief One of its results was the order promulgated by Warden Brush, of the Sing Sing prison, at the close of work yesterday afternoon, that all work would cease until the appropriation was made This was the order to the citizen employees of the institution. Of these S5 are in the shoe shop, 30 in the stove works and 2 in the laundry, or 12s in all There are tc- day 1,627 convicts in the prison and of these 49O were in the shoe shop, 4s9 in the stove works and 226 in the laundry, the others be- ing utilized as walters, hall boys, etc. When the warden was asked by reporter why he had shut down he said that he had no money to go on and could do nothing else, and he had telegraphed Superintendent Lathrop to that effect The loss to the state, he said, would be at the rate of S1 500 net profit a month.
 At the present time there is $50, 900 worth of leather in process of manufacture into bootsand shoes and SIS, 900 worth of material on hand and $20, 900 worth of stoves in course of com pletion. Altogether there is S1S9,0OO worth of completed stock which is awaiting ship ment and cannot be sent until the citizens gC to work This will cause loss not only to the state, but customers are kept waiting, and the state may lose their custom Orders will have to be cancelled.

 the Salvation Army.
 LITTLE FALLS, N. F., Feb. Ion Dec. 5 last there was grand hallelujah wedding in this village, at which Capt. Eric Von Alex son and Capt. Polly Bryan, of the Salvation Army, were married. They had big pro cession parading the streets, preceded by a drum corps, and had hallelujah time gener- ally. Polly was buxom and fair to look upon, and was altogether the most prepossessing member of the female contingent of the Sal vation Army. But Polly is now in disgrace, and the cause of that disgrace is her hustle. Gen. T. E. Moore, commander of the Sal vation Army in the United States and Can ada, in letter to Polly's husband explaining his action in the matter. says:
 ''I do not think your wife in at all a condi- tion to lead others away from the world and sin, and must say am astonished to think you could uphold an officer, though she be your wife, in dressing herself in a manner that Mrs Alexson did She was kindly re- proved and shown the wrong, but persisted in wearing hustle on her back that disgusted every decent person, and say in sincere god Illness I cannot send her to another station. Hoping you both may see the wrong of this 1 am, with sorrow, yours forever"

THE TARIFF BILL.
The Measure Will be Drawn to Placate
 Both Sides of the Democratic Party.

The Measure Will be Drawn to Placate
 Both Sides of the Democratic Party.
 WASHINGTON, Feb. LA prominent mem Der of the house, not member of the ways and means committee, but who is thoroughly posted as to the doings of the committee ln tariff matters, said yesterday: "The tariff bill is being very carefully considered, and such good progress has been made that expect it will be reported to the house next week, un- less, of course. there should be any obstacles in the way that are now not known. That bill will be of such nature that believe it will pass the house, and be satisfactory to the country.
 ''It will not be of radical nature. be lieve that you will find that the duty will be taken off wool, that a moderate reduction will be made on woolen goods, so, as to in meas ure correspond with the reduction on the raw material, and that the tax on cotton goods will also be reduced. There will be consider able of an increase in the free list, and a re- duction of from 20 to 25 per cent. on the sugar duties. That part of the programme will please the revenue reformers, who are clamor- ing for a reduction on the necessaries of life. To piacate the Randall Democrats the duties of tobacco will be cut some $20, ,00O, ,OOO; but the whisky tax will not be touched"
