"Ishnavogue was played for the last
time at the Opera House last night. This
evening Mr.. Ward and his company will

Haggard's imaginative work she" Mr..
White Is member of the company. His
version is that which was presented so long
at the San Francisco Tivoli. Special super
numeraries have been secured, and new
scenery will be used. The management
announces that its troupe Is finely adapted
to the effective production of the piece, and
that it is the intention TO make il a notable
performance. Carrie Clark Ward will as
sumo the title role and Mr. White will fiji
the original old man part in which such
success was achieved by him in San Fran

The Amateur Opera Company had still
larger audience at the Metropolitan Thea

better than on the first night, the singers
being more composed and stronger in voice.
Miss Fitch as Yum Yum wss even more

ton of the SACRAMENTO SUNDAY UNION.
The first question asked is:
Can the average compositor get that day of
rest and publish newspaper seven days in q
week?
Certainly he can, and icai The reverend
gentleman could not have asked a question
which would more completely expose his
subject on which he writes. If he knew
ANYTHING about our business, he would
know that very few compositors on this
paper, or any other morning paper, average
more than fire days work in each week.
They invariably work by the piece, and by
a system of subs" or substitutes, lay of
any night they choose. They may work
one night in the week, or six, as they
please, getting pay for what they do. We
do not wish them TO work seven nights in
the week. for we are well aware that a man
who attempts to work seven consecutive
DAYS is not likely TO give rs good service as
one who takes needed rest.
In this connection it will probably be
news to Mr.. Merrill to learn that in max
ing arrangements for the publication of the
SUNDAY UNION sufficient extra force has
already been engaged SO that every person
EMPLOYED on the paper by the week will
be relieved from duty one full day OF
twenty-four hours in each week and re-
ceive the same pay as heretofore. Thus,
when the reverend gentleman admits that
all he desires is that men shall have one
day of rest each week, whether it be on
Sunday or some other day, his arguments
have no force whatever as applied to this
paper We might add, what everybody
knows who has read the REcoRp-UEIoN,
that we have maintained the necessity for
one day of rest in the week, and shall con-
tinue to do SO, and repeat that we yield to
no6e in our regard for Christian principles
or our sympathy with the legitimate work
of the priests and apostles of pure religion

Several years ago an artist OF Dresden
persuaded a locksmith there to give up
his trade and become an artists model.
1t was a good thing for the locksmith,
who is now the famous muscle man of
Dresden, whose magnificently developed
body makes him probably the most re-
nowned model in the world. In order
to preserve for future artists an exact
duplicate of his extraordinary figure,
the director Of the Royal Saxon Powell
anfabrik at Nielsen, recently invited
him there that n cast from life might be
taken Of the upper part OF his body. 1t
Is said that "his muscular development
is so complete and detailed that ever the
least and slightest cord of every muscle
stands forth prominently, and his whole
body looks as IL it were woven together,
or plated like basket work. His muscles
have such a hardness that they feel to
the touch rs IL they were carved in
wood-"-Brooklyn Eagle.

IMPORTANMT TO SETTLERS.

IMPORT1NHT TO SETTL
We have 70 fat seen no references to
the important act of March 2 last, grant
ing to claimants who have, by abandon
ment or forfeiture, failed to perfect title
to claims instituted prior to the date of
the act. The new law will be of particu-
lar interest to settlers in this territory as
there are innumerable instances when
barren soil, failure OF crops and other
circumstance have caused an abandonment
or forfeiture of claims initiated in good
faith, which have reverted to the govern
Eent without any substantial benefit to
the settlers. Under former laws and
rulings. the mere filing of a pre-. emption
declaratory statement or the preliminary
homestead entry, have been deemed an
exercise of the respective rights to the
exclusion of other filings or entries
whether the claims were perfected or not
Quoting from the department circular
of instructions: The second section of
the act allows in general terms any party
who has heretofore made a homestead
entry and who has not perfected title
hereunder to make another homestead
entry, while denying such right to any
party who p~erfects title to lands under the
pre- emption or homestead laws already
initiated, and specifically provides that
parties who have existing pre-. emptron
rights may transmute them to homestead
entries and perfect title to the lands under
the homestead laws, although they may
have heretofore had the benefit thereof.
The third section provides for permis.
sion to be granted in certain cases by the
register and receiver of the proper district
land Office for parties claiming public land
as settlers under existing laws, to leave
and be absent from the land settled upon
Tor a specified period, not to exceed one
year at any one time.
The fifth section provides for an add.
tional entry of land, which shall be
contiguous to the land embraced in the
original entry for which the final proof of
residence and cultivation made on the
original entry shall be sufficient, but of
which no party shall have the benefit who
does not at the date OF his application
therefor own and occupy the land covered
by his original entry, and which shall not
be permitted. or if permitted, shall be
cancelled. if the original entry should fail
Tor any reason. prior to patent, or should
appear to be Illegal or fraudulent"
The sixth section admits of an addi-
tlonal entry ofland. which need not be
contiguous to land embraced in the orig.
inal. by parties who have complied with
the conditions of the law with regard to
the original entry, aud have had the final
papers issued therefor, and with the con-

WYO IS He.

The principal topic of conversation in
this city yesterday was the now celebrated
letter to the New York Times which was
reproduced in THE LEADER. 1t is safe
to say hat no article regarding Wyoming
which has appeared in print since the
letter on wOman's suffrage, which was
published in the same paper. has created
a more genuine sensation. who wrote
the letter p was a question upon every
tongue. Pretty nearly everyone who
rut the query had at least one answer
ready for it and it was very seldom that
any two agreed. Many OF these
answers evidently shot wide of the mark
for they were not backed by even n reas-
enable degree Of probability. Some OF
these brought under suspicion might have
reasonably been suspected OF having
written portions OF the letter but there
was an obvious Incongruity in believing
hat any of them went to the extreme
and very diverse limits of the whole letter.
The result of all speculation has sim
mered down to one potent fact and that
is that the author in all probability is not
now n resident of Wyoming. He is evil
IDENTITY a man who, while he has acquired
n superficial knowledge Of territorial aE-
fairs through a more or less extended resi-
dcnce here, still does not possess the &C
curate information which every actual
resident has at his fingers ends. He is a
man who entertains a profound and I'M
reasonable antipathy toward all men en-
gagged in the stock business, who has
himself no material interest here, and,
therefore, an utter disregard OF the dam
age he may do to the credit of the terri
tory abroad. He is a man who has n
deep seated dislike of Governor Warren,
and an equally deep seated admiration
for ex Governor Moonlight. It'll evident
from the references Il threatening letters
that he must at one time have had in
innate relations with the latter gentleman
and it is equally evident that he must
have had access to the department letters
at Washington. Furthermore, it is APP
parent that the writer was a ruan who has
close relations with some important mem
ber- of the Times staff. otherwise he
conld not have secured the insertion of an
article cmbodying such grave and reck-
less charges even over his own siga-
ture.
Find the man who fills all these requis-
ties and the writer of the article will be
found.
But who is he?

Probably tho most unique railroad pass
issued this year is that of the Silverton
Railroad company of Colorado. 1t is a
thin silver plate, about the size and shape
Of passes in general use. On the upper
left hand corner of the face of the plate
Is n vignette showing a curve Of the road
between Silverton and Ouray. The pass
Is rolled from silver bars and stamped,
the vignette and lettering, with the ex-
ception of the presidents name, being in
relief. The name is intaglio, and is gild-
ed. as are the vignette and scroll. The
number of the pass and the name of the

having been served with a plate of soup
he had ordered, said to the waiter:

On receiving the second plate the guest
once more remarked:
Its no use. / can't eat this SOUP"
Then the waiter went to the proprietor
and said:
"The old gentleman over there is COM
planning about the soup. He says he
can't eat it."
"You don't know how to wait on peo-

Convict Douglas Again at Work With
HIS Pen.
TELL-TALE
MISSIVE
Gets Into the Hands Of the Wronq
Party, and Warden Randall
Is Now On.

Convict Douglas was detected yester-
day in clandestine correspondence, hav-
ing struggled out a letter addressed to
a fictitious name. The letter was called
for at the Saltwater postOffice by man
who at first perSOnated the one adj
dressed. but proved to be one Riley,
discharged from the state prison ON the
previous day. In the meantime the
letter had been opened through mistake
by citizen to whom the carrier had de-
livered it, and who happened to bear
the same surname as appeared on the
envelope. The missive was intended by
to loose woman friend of Douglas in
one of the Twin Cities. Part of the
document was evidently in cipher, and
a portion stated that the writer ex-
pected to effect his escape before Christ
mas and would expect the woman to
conceal him for a time if necessary.
Postmaster Mccarthy at once turned
over the letter to the warden. WHO again
started it towards its intended destina-
ton. Warden Randall has known of
Douglas surreptitious correspondence.
and has allowed it to proceed in accord
ance with plan aiming at benefcent
results, which may develop later. Doug
las is the fiftpen-year man VINO robbed
the Minneapolis bank in broad daylight,
and who recently rode down town "on-
cealed in box cal. but was recaptured.
Joseph PerrO, the member of the Oak
Park school board at whose instance

come up for trial in the municipal court

Democrats Cannot Afford to Re.
appropriate Siicott's Stea'ings.
WASHINGTON, Dee. 13.-A small
crowd of Democratic members of the
house was clustered around Representa-
tive Mills, of Texas, in the house this
morning talking over the effect of the
Sillcott defalcation OH the chances in
the next election. Mr.. Mills was the
chief spokesman, and he laid down Wig
orOusly his opinion that the Democrats
could not afford to Inappropriate the
lost money to reimburse themselves.
1t would lose the party thirty or forty
members and The next house, he said.
The best electloneering that the party
could do might be done right away
on the floor of the house.
1t might be that the money
was lost through no fault of
theirs and that they thought the gov
eminent was responsible, but in every
close district the party would find their
opponents on the stump making loud
prOclamations and crying that Demo-
cratic sergeant-at-armS had lost the peo
pies money. and that the Democrats
had voted to pay 1t back. 1t would lose
them several hundred votes right along,
and before the campaign was over some
OF the members would be vainly seeking
to give the sum appropriated away to
churches, or anybody or anything that
would have it, as was the case wi b the
back petty grab when two well-known
members could find no one to take the
money. The best way out of it was for
the Democratic party leaders and
Leedom to go among their friends and
raise the money and turn it over to the
treasury TO make good the deficit. This
would do more effective work for the
party than all the experimenting next
fall. and the national committee should
take it in hand. He was willing himself
to give his November salary toward this
fund. and he thought the other Demo
Gratis would do the same, and in this
way part of the money might be made
