AS HIGHEST ART.

"TrovatOre" Superbly Rendered
by the Hess Opera Company.
I'll Trovatore," which is regarded by
many as the masterwork of its illustri
Gus composer. enjoyed a representation
at the Newmarket theater last evening
which may be set down as almost fault
less. The cast comprised Nj. Guile
as ManricO. MIR. Merteps as Count di
Luna, Mr.. Hamilton as Fernando. Miss
Fanny Myers as AZuceDa, and Miss
Camille Muori as Leonora. To those
who only remembered Miss Muori in
The lighter roles which fell to her lot
with the BostonianS. her performance
of VerdiS heroine last evening was a
genuine surprise. None of the dra-
matte fire which is essential to
proper portrayal of that diff
euit role was lacking, and
while exception might be taken to the
tremOlo, which was somewhat cOnSpic-
uouS in her lower tones during the first
act, she left little to be desired as the
opera progressed and her voice warmed
to ITS work. The difficult colorateur
passages, which are frequent in the
music of the role, were we'll executed,
and the power of her well cultivated
voice was fully equal to the dramatic
requirements OF Inc part.
The most pronounced success of the
evening, however. was made by the
truly wonderful little tenor, NJ.
Guile. Throughout the opera the
sweet and ringing quality of his
remarkable voice lett nothing To be de-
sired. He was warmly applauded for
all his efforts, and his singing of the
"Di Quella PIra" reused the audience
to pitch of enthusiasm which has sell
dom If ever been witnessed i'll this city.
Four times during the aria he Il Ok the
high &. and sustained it with display
of ease and power which can only be
characterized as wonderful. 1t Is SAFE
to say tn + we have never before had
tenor in st. Paul the equal of NJ. Guile.
In him Mr.. Hess has q prize which
should win him a fortune. Mr.. Mtr-
tens, the baritone. shared the hOnOrS
of the evening with the others. The
role of the Count dl Luca was admira-
bly, suited to his clear, rrSonent voice
and manly figure, and Ill the Ill Balen"
he received an enthusiastic encore.
The AZucena of Miss Fanny ayers was
another success OF the performance.
Miss Myers is the poSseSsOr OF we'll
trained meZzo-SOpranO voice, which
Was displayed 10 good advantage in the.
role of the captive gypsy. The ensenl-
Die members OF the opera were We'll eX-

HER BLACK PROTEGE.
A School Girl Directs Attention
to Darky Boys Wrongs.

to a Darky Boys Wrongs.
A little darby boy with kinky woody
head and big dark eyes staggered along Min
nesota street yesterday afternoon. falling
down every few steps. and rising only to fall
again. The little fellow was scarcely more
than four years old. His face was bruised
and tswollen and covered with blood that
streamed from a wound i'll his scalp. One of
his hands was bleeding. too. and altogether
the child presented piIiful spectacle. Sew
eral little school girls met him, and one of
them, a beautiful blonde little fairy, put her
arm about the neck of the weeping little mig.
What is the matter with you, little bow"
she asked. trying to wipe away the blood
from the swollen face of the black baby.
His auntie, he said. had hit him with stick
and hurt him like this. The little American
school girl knew thing or two about law, if
she was but seven-year-old. Away she
went in search of police officer, and she
found one. Officer" she said, this little
boy has been beaten and his head cut Will
you see that he is taken care Off
The officer replied that he would, and the
fair-halred little miss patted the bruised
hand of her colored protogee as she assured
him that he would be all right now. The
child. whose name is Arthur Douglas, wss
taken to police headquarters. There he told
representative of the GLOBE that his
mother. Mary Douglas. worked at Highwood,
and came home every night. She had left
him to the care of his aunt. woman
named Lottie Branch, residing on the corner
of Eagle and Exchange streets. Yesterday
morning she had taken heavy stick and
beaten him. The boys head showed deep
scalp wound, and his hands were bruised
and bloody, and his face was Nfrighttully
swollen. Lieut.. Morgan learned that the lad
had relatives on Twelfth street. and sent him
there i'll charge of John Sparks, a colored
man, who knew him. The humane society
will investigate the matter.

HALF OVER THE RIVER.
A Woman Barely Saved From Sui
cide-The Husband Claims an
Accident.

Shortly after $3.50 p. m. yesterday a man
rushed into the Thomas drug store, on South
Robert street, near the bridge. He waved
bottle in the air and exclaimed that his wife
had taken poison, exhibiting the bottle
labeled ''carbolic acid. from which he said
the poison had been swallowed. Dr. Sigler
proceeded at once TO the scene of the occur
renee. The mans story proved to be cor
rect. Mrs. Antonina French was found
lying on the floor of the residence appar-
entity at the point of death. Her limbs were
rigid end cold, and the death rattle was al
ready issuing from the swollen lips.
Too late, m afraid said the doctor as
he saw the patents condition, but he lost no
time in administering emeucs. and TO the
surprise or every one signs OF life became
noticeable. The woman opened and closed
her eyes several times, aud the efforts of the
physicians were redoubled. DR.. Darling ar
rived shortly after Dir. Sigler, and the two
worked faithfully until the patient had re-
covered sufficiently TO swear vigorously and
utter the most bitter denunciatiOn of her
husband. she was then considered out
of danger: oBiateS were administered ana at
last accounts Mrs. French was sleeping qui-
city. Inquiries as to the manner in which
the poison was taken present conflicting
statements. Joseph French, the husband,
says that the dose was taken by mistake, the
bottle having stood among q number Of med
iclne bottles on shelf. French is employed
at Booth oyster house on East Third street
house boat on the levee, between Robertson
and state streets. The interior of the float
ing domicile is comfortably arranged. The
couple were married i'll Chicago five years
ago and have lived in ST. Paul three years.
I here are three children who at the time of
the reporters visit were playing about the
floor OF the cabin sans clothing, except ex-
tremey abreviaed undershirts. In direct
contradiction of the accident theory ad
vanced in explanation of the poisoning by
Mr.. French, Is the testimony of the neigh
bors. They state that the relations between
French and his wife have been strained,
that she has been heard to and
threaten suicide more than once
The medical men working on the
Case also incliue to the opinion that it was an
attempt at suicide which came so near being
successful that the recovery was almost mir
aculous. Mrs. French had not sufficiently
recovered last night TO offer an explanation.
Two nurses were left at the boat last night,
with instructions 10 call the doctors if u turn
for the worse occurred.
