STORY OF A GIRLS PLUCK.
Mark CroxaII ana Charlie Vivian-Ned
Royle Leaves James 81 Vain
wright-Di Murska.

Leavitt's Variety Company drew a
good house last evening, and ended up
q satisfactory engagement; not an i'm
msnse, such as big variety troupe
usually experiences, but comfortable
more than average, decent money max
ing business. Why the engagement
fell short of the usual results is due
probably to two causes, the absence OF
Leavitt's usual naked printing, aad the
chill the public experienced from the
John Murphy sell. The show last even
ing was as good as ever the Ventriloquist
first and the marionettes second being
the great features The act of the
deformed Keller is rather repulsive
than attractive, and its place is not on
the stage OF theatre.

upon it, whereby it might be distin

This paragraph appears in the num-
Der of Music aud Drama just at hand,
and this morning brief in THE HER
AID tells that Mark Croxall, Vivian's
old time chum, yesterday breathed his
last in Butte. The two were once in
seperables, and in their time were bril-
liant lights in our little Bohemian and
musical world. A train OF many inter
esting thoughts their chequered lives
start in motion, and not the least cur
ious is that both should nave graVl-
tated away from the place where they
were once so populer, to die amid
strangers in mining camp. Inc tate
of Marx Croxall seems particularly sad;
a finished musician, prince OF good
fellows, handsome and engaging In
manner, he is still well remembered by
a host of his old.time friends and &C
uuaintances. May his virtues be borne
in mind and his faults be forgotten.

the doors Of that conservative institu
ton, the Conservatory of Paris, is to
her sex, as well as all others, very in
teresting. She was only eight years old
at the time. Three years before she
had conceived great desire to learn to
play the violin, and at first had played
on rude instrument made by an old
music teacher in Der nstive town of
Nantes.
She went to Paris and asked to be ad-
mitted to the Conservatory to study
The celebrated composer, Auber, was
president of the institution. and his
answer to the request was, why, she
is a girll' Her father was obliged to
use every possible plan to break this
unreasonable barrier between the tai
ented girl and success, and finally got
her the privilege of playing at the an
nual examination. There were seventy
boys, the youngest of whom was
eighteen years old, who competed with
the little cir! for one of the three vacant
places to be had at the Conservatory.
Camilla was determined to win and
show those who thought girl could
not play, what talent there really was
in the sex. On the examination day
she was admitted before the judges,
who looked grim and displeased at her,
but she did not mind She was there
for business, and she chose and played
the Fourth Concerto by Rode. Her
rendition took the staid professors by
storm. They did not believe it possible
in one so young, and especially in a
girl. AS result, she obtained the first
prize, much to the disgust of her nv Is,
and since that day the great Institution
has been open to women.

in extreme poverty.
Her daughter, who was heartbroken
at the loss of her mother, committed
suicide by taking poison"

her appearance here several years ago

years and a personal presence which
always told against her public sue
cess-militated against her, and not
long after she left Salt Lake, she drop

another eloquent instance of the sor-
rows and disappointment of an artistic

The Exposition.
To the Editor of the Press:

10 TIE Editor OF the Press:
One of the speakers at the Board of Trade
meeting which proposed that the city should
put $4,000 into permanent exposition
building, spoke as if the addition of that
sum to the tax levy was inconsequental and
not to be considered for moment by the
liberal citizen. 1t may not be felt seriously
by the gentleman who made the statement,
but to the people of moderate means to whom
the addition of dollar to their taxes means
the deprivation of just so much of the COM
forts of living; to the poor widow and the
helpless woman; to the man past labor and
dependent upon a limited income, the addi-
ton Of $4,000 to theltaxes upon the present
valuation means an addition of 10 cents to
the rate.
This too, without the addition of one dol
lar to the value of property generally and
only for the sake Of benefitting a few peo-
pie, who at the expense of their fellow citi-
zens want to increase their sales and get
gratuitous advertising.
On behalf of the small tax payers and peo-
pie OF limited means we protest against
squandering the money raised by taxes for
the benefit of the few who seem to have the
control of the Board of Trade
The way to increase permanently the pop
ulation and business of Portland is by re-
ducing taxes and not by adding to them S.
