New York Letter In Philadelphia Times
The Rev. John X. Paxton, u. d., Is n
peculiarly dashing preacher. lie is impol-
iiic and has mixed himself up with several
rows unnecessarily, but his sermons are
remarkably iorcble in language aud deliv-
cry. aud his Presbyterian Church is
crowded by one Of the weallhicst congrc-
cations in New York. The Goulds have
two pcws In his church, aud ho is an init
mate friend Of the family. Gould was not
formerly religious at all so far ~ anybody
knew, aud he rarely went 10 church; but
acquaintance with Dr. Paxton led TO his
attendance, occasionally at first, but lat
terry regularly. lie has not joined the
church, but lac has been urged strongly 10y
his pastor TO do 50, and has shown signs OF
ncquiesccncc. II Is certain that Paxton
has made n determined effort TO convert
him, supplying him with q large number
OF theological books TO read, spending
many afternoons with him at his residence
since his retirement from Wall street, aud,
ut all events, becoming a familiar and well
come companion.

From The London Court Journal.
The Pope has a weakness for chess. He
Is n very inc player, aud In the amateur
ranks Is said TO have few superiors In the
knowledge OF gambits aud opening. There
Is one priest In Rome who has the especial
honor Of being the Pope's adversary over
the board. Thispriesl Father Giclla-has
played chess with Leo Pccci for thirty-two
ycars past. When Cardinal Pccci was
raised TO the Papal throne, Father Giclla,
who was then in Florence, got an invita-
ton TO proceed 10 Rome and take up his
quarters In the Vatican. Giclla Is hot
tempered, aud has been known 10 look
very black indeed at the Vicar Of Chr.al
across his chess board. Tho Pope takes
Giella's temper good naturally, and often
improves tho occasion by little homily ON
the virtues Of resignation and mecknUss.

THE OPERA,
Carmen" by the Boston Ideal Com.
pany.

Those who attended the admirable per-
Torrance of "Faust' Monday night by
the Boston Ideal Opera Company enjoyed
a delightful surprise last night when they
heard Carmen" with Miss De Lussan in
the title role. This artists Marguerite
was so thoroughly excellent, so abounding
in sympathy, so refined and satisfactory
in physical expression, that when she
displayed equal adaptability rs Carmen, "
she made revelation Of brilliant versa
tility. Her treatment OF the part Of Gar
men" is, we believe original, in
that she seeks to modify the
coaseness of tho character. She
does not, however, sacrifice too much,
and her Carmen" is Carmen after all.
Her voice proved equal TO the demands OF
a very trying score. She sang II with
marked facility and ease, and her recalls
were frequent and cordial. Mr.. Scovel,
MS Don Jose, appeared 10 great nd-
vantage, his voice having rcgaincd clear
ness, aud he infused abundant vigor
into his work. Mr.. Martens, Ms Is Ca
milo, once more aroused the audience into
iervent display OF enthusiasm by his
rousing barito ne, the song of the "Iorea-
dor" afording tho frccst display Of his
vocal gifts. These were the bright partic-
ular slars Of Intervening but the supporting
company was generally satisfactory. The
audience was the largest OF the engage
ment, there being standing room only. II
is TO be regretted that the troupe did not
arrange to play the whole week. We are
quite sure the engagement would have
proved profitable. We trust the managers
may come TO Memphis next season for
such an engagement They can find no
fault with the results OF this, their first
visit, aud they may rest assured that the
impression made by the company has been
entirely favorable. A welcome will await
their return.

The special committee appointed by
the Senate to investigate the alleged
beef combine, have submitted their re.
port which is as follows:
Your committee have taken the
testimony of large number of specu-
iators and dealers in cattle, farmers,
and feeders OF cattle, stockyard men,
ranchmen. comission men, shippers of
stock to Kansas City and other mar.
ket packers, butchers and retailers of
meat. We find that there is a prevail.
ing opinion among farmers and stock
raisers that combination exists among
the packing houses in Kansas CITY to
control the prices of cattle on foot and
the prices addressed meats, but we did
not find positive proof of the existence
of such combination.
We are led to believe, however, from
the circumstantial evidence and from
personal observation, that the existen-
&c of the packing house at Kansas
City centraliZes the cattle market of
the west at that point and places in
the hands of a few, a power that can
be used at will to the detriment of the
stock raisers of our state.
We therefore recommend as a protec-
ton TO stock raisers and others that the
municipal government of the state be
empowered by an act of the legislature
to enact ordinances requiring local in.
spection on foot and slaughter of cat.
tie, the meat of which is offered for
sale in the city where such ordinances
are enacted.

A GREAT OFFER.

The Kansas City Evening Neps,
without doubt the brightest daily pa.
per that reaches our Office, is max ing
great inducements to new subscribers.
They offer to send it one year for two
dollars. This is the cheapest daily
published, but little more than half a
cent day.
The Evening NeDs is not the Oldest
nor the largest paper in the west, and
these facts we think are largely in its
favor. 1t is young in years and for
that reason is active, aggressive and
fearless. 1t is small in dimensions i.
thus saving the publishers great deal
of expense for waste paper and the
readers a great deal of the valuable
time usually spentin plodding through
the labored columns of the blanket
sheets which are fast becoming obso-
lete. The thirty-two columns of the
Evening Ne,oS are completely filled
with condensed news from which all
the chaff and "slush" is carefully elm.
mated by experienced writers. AS is
already widely known the Evening
NeDs has laid the foundation of an ag-
gressive policy without fear or favor
SO long as the public good is being
served. We cheerfully recommend
this paper to our readers. Send $500
at once to the publishers, corner Ninth
and Delaware, Kansas City, No, or
leave order with your postmaster.

A TERRIFIC explosion of powder in
squib factory at Plymouth, Pa, &C
Cured on the 25th. The building was
entirely wrecked and many persons
buried in the ruins. The "squi bs
manufactured are pieces of straw
filled with powder and fitted with fuse
and are used by the miners in ex.
ploding blasts. In some mysterious
way the powder stored in the build.
ing was fired. The factory employs
usually about eighty young girls
most of whom were fortunately al
dinner when the accident occurred
Some of the employees were eating
their noon lunch in the building, and
went down with the wreck. Ten
girls and one man were taken Out
blackened and burned almost beyond
recognition.
