The remaining territory whose adj
mission to the Union Congress this
winter will be called upon most
strongly to consider, is Idaho. A
constitutional convention assembled
at Boise City in July last and framed
a state constitution, which on Noyem-
Der ), was voted upon and accepted
by the people. Delegate Dubois,
man of force and determination, is
now presenting the case of his con-
stituents at Washington. Idaho has
a population estimated at about
$4,000 and property of an assessed
value of 1000, 900. The area of
the territory is 100000 acres,
much of it too mountainous for agri-
cultural purposes.

The newspapers were filled, day
or two ago, with startling stories of
the sudden and mysterious dissap-
pearance of Mr.. Parnell. 1t now APP
peares that he was simply confined
to his house with an attack of the
influenza, which all London finds so
fashionable just at present. Mr..
Parnell is not a man who is readily
lost, and when lost is as readily
found. In other words his friends
and his enemies always know where
to find him.

The Pigott Letters.

LONDON, February 2O-When the
Parnell commission met this morn
ing the court room and it's precincts
were crowded. Parnell was present.
Mr.. Houston, secretary of the Irish
Loyal and Patriotic league, standing,
was further cross-examined. He had,
he said, destroyed Pigott's letters to
him in accordance with the agree
ment made between them; that they
were intended for the witness eye
alone and were not to be used public
ly. Up to the time the witness went
to Paris, Pigott had not given him the
names of any persons connected with
the letters secured by the Times. He
did not consider that a knowledge of
the men from whom the letters were
obtained was important in connection
with the question of their genuine
hess. Witness said his part was done
when the letters were obtained. He
accepted them without securing any
means Of testing Pigott's statement in
the event of their genuineness being
questioned, because he understood it
was useless to attempt to make COM
plete case, and further inquiry would
only handicap himself; he had no
means whatever of testing any part of
Pigott's story that the letters were
left in a bag found in a room in Paris.
Witness showed the letters to Lord
Harrington, and asked his advice as to
their disposition; his lordship refused
to advise him. He did not offer the
letters to the Pail Mall Gazette. He
saw Mr.. Stead, editor of the Gazette
before he obtained possession of the
letters and asked him to make up the
matter, which would lead to the dis
closures. Mr.. Stead said he had lost
$4,000 by the publication of the
Modern Babylon" articles, and he
would not like to touch anything else
unless he knew it would be success
full.

LACE HANDKERCHIEF.
A Very Pretty Opera Sung Over
One Last Night.

one Last NlRnt.
Nearly as large an audience greeted
the Carleton opera company at the
Grand last night when the curtain
rose upon the first group of the
chorus as upon the previous
night. The audience was mainly COM
posed of the same people too; opera
lovers, who will attend every per-
fOrmance of opera given in this city.
They were more pleased with 1.-THE
Queens Lace HANDKERCHIEF" the
opera sung, than they were with
"Mynheer jan" Not, however, be-
cause they were more acquainted with
it; for Grau's light company is the
only one that has ever previously
produced it in San Antonio; but
because it is better opera. with more
melody, more music and with
higher register. There is no topical
song, but the comedy introduced is
finer and mole diverse. The
composer, Johann Strauss, is almost
personally known in San Antonio,
among our German musicians and his
swinging, musical operas are favorites
here, in the concert as well as the ball
room, and many young debutante
has alike learned to triIl by them and
dance by them. In the Lace Hand
kerchief" he has given us a charm
ing love plot coupled with bright
music and containing excellent cho-
ruses and solos. From the rise of the
curtain until its fall, the Carleton
Company, who served as the readers
of the lines, was applauded as well
for their painstaking efforts as for the
music itself. Mr.. Drew, of course, as
Sancho, received the lions share of
the appreciation, but Mr.. De Mesa, as
"DOn QuiXOte" came in for q good
second in the comic parts, while Mr..
Murray, as the Prime Minister to the
King, was full appreciated in his ex-
cellent singing OF his baritone part,
which gave him good scope for his
powers. Mr.. J. c. Taylor, tenor, made
a very good attempt as a king, but his
tenor, which does not show as well as
in "NanOn,n seemed little thick last
night. The ladies, as they generally
do, carried their parts well, both in
the principals and chorus; Miss Alice
Vincent as the queen singing splen-
didly her soprano score, and Miss
Rose Beandet, as Irene, substituted
instead of Miss Lane, whose hOarse-
ness prevented herr carrying her
really fine voice through the
lines with perfect ease and tech
nique. Though the conspiracy,
and the serenade of Sancho, begin
ming of the third act, was badly cut,
the trial of the supposed insane poet,
Cervantes, by the learned doctors,
Chorus ladies) was well done and
very pleasing. AS "Cervantes," Mr..
Carleton sang better than on the pre-
vious night, having better music to
sing. And many were the times he
received hearty applause.
Today for matinee the best opera of
Their repertoire, "Nanon." is being
given. Tonight the engagement of
the company ends with Robert Ma
caire," or "Ermime."
Miss Clara Morris is underlined for
Friday and Saturday nights.

viii Fight the First Settler.

KANSAS CITY, Feb. 2O.-F. p. Blair,
the authorized attorney for the
Cherokee Nation, said in an interview
yesterday, that if the Springer Okla
homa bill passes the senate in its
present form, the Cherokee Nation
will dispute it's constitutionality the
moment the first settler makes his
appearance on the land known as the
Cherokee strip. Springer intimates
that Indians have no title to this
strip, while at the same time
he practically acknowledges their
title, by offering to recompense them
for its loss by paying them S125 for
the land. The Indians have refused
bona fide offers of three dollars per
acre for the same lands. The strip
includes six MILAN acres. I will
bring suit in equity court in behalf of
the Cherokee Nation against the first
settler on the Cherokee strip. the
suit will be brought in the name of
Cobboudinet and others, on behalf of
the Cherokee Nation. The CherO-
KEGS have been leasing this strip to
cattle men for two hundred thousand
dollars a year, and it is too valuable a
property to be parted with.

George Oustoff at the Brunswick no.

Instead the prince pawned the coat
for 500. Upon searching the room of

Conflicting Reports of Indian
Troubles.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, February 90
A special from Helena, Mont, says
the latest reports of trouble on the
Flat Head Indian reservation are con-
flicting. At Missoula it is said two
men, Clifford and Cunningham, have
been killed. The Indians have been
troublesome since last March, when
two Indians were hanged. The Mis-
soula people look for serious trouble.
At Ravailli it is said that the stage
has arrived and that Clifford and
Cunningham are safe.

More Victims Excavated.

HARTFORD, Conn.,, Feb. 2O.-The
work of excavating the Park Central
ruins has been vigorously prosecuted
today, and more effectively than
heretofore. About o'clock this morn
ing, a body was discovered, which,
from its location close by the safe, is
probably the night clerk, Ferry. A
great mass of debris is yet to be over
hauled. Many think no more bodies
will be found as no other persons are
reported missing, but others expect to
find more, as it was reported full at
the hospital today. All ten OF. the pa
TENTS are doing we'll and no serious
result is expected with any of them.

Replies to the Critic.

Editor LIGHT
Will you kindly find space in your
valuable journal to allow me to an
swer an article of the Times of the
18th, in regard to the orchestral ac-
compartment of the Carleton Opera
Co.: C"The orchestral accompani-
ment was very thin, the pianoforte
alone sustaining the greater part of
opera. Surely this can be avoided.")
In the first place, if the able critic of
the Times can find an orchestra COM
posed of five men to play louder and
with less mistakes than my orchestra,
especially where there is but hur-
ried rehearsal, I will give him my
check for $4,000. In Europe, where
musicians are plentiful, they would
laugh at any one suggesting to them
to play with five men for an opera
with only one rehearsal. In the sec
ond place, why don't the critic take
the management of the opera house.
/ would be pleased to furnish him an
orchestra of ten pieces, and L will
guarantee him the music won't be so
thin. To cease criticising my orches-
ira where there is no occasion for the
same, is all ask.
