WASHINGTON MATTERS.
nEEAI-IrING EECEINERS.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-Ihe discovery
thut a comparatively large number o. Ie-
,piyers of public moneys in different
nn,ls of the west are short III thelr ac-
counts with the government has led TO an
Investigation into what safeguards lave
been employed to prevent deialcaii"''s.
Ii is stated that hitherto receivers nave
been required to furnish duplicate copies
,i all certificates OF deposit, one ot which
is sent to the treasury department, aud
the other is retained by the receiver him.
self.
The result is that while the officials of
the general land office may kno" from
reports received the exact amounts col
lectod by the receiver during any given
time. thew have no knowledge Of what
amounts have been deposited in tile des-
ipnated government repositories. On the
other hand, while the treasury depart
ment officials have information as to the
amounts deposited from time to time, they
have no knowledge of whether these
amounts correspond with tie office re-
ceipts which should have been deposited.
Thus it is that receivers have been able
to keep each department fully and cor

THE YARMOUTH NOMINATION.
The senate committee on commerce has
under consideration the nomination OF ex-
Gov. Yarmouth to be collector of customs
at New Orleans. Ex-District Attorney
Larned and Representative Coleman were
present and opposed confirmation in short
speeches; but as it was stated that Mr..
| Yarmouth is now ill at Phlfadelphla, the
further consideration of the case was post
poned till next week.
Judge Morris Marks and several mem
bers Of the Louisiana legislature, also OPP
posed the confirmation, charging that
Yarmouth had while governor increased
the state debt enormously, had been guilty
of misdemeanors and maladministratlon
in office, and that he had been notorious
" engaged in Grading politically' with
the Louisiana Democrats to secure his
own ends.

Sensational Shooting.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 25.-l.oul l..
Bromwell, president of the California In
surance company, was shot and badly
wounded in his private office yesterday
by George C. Pratt, general agant OF the
con- pany. The shooting caused great
sensation as it was at first thought the
wounds sustained by Bromwell were
mortal.
In explanation OF the shooting Pratt
said he had recently been sent to Japan
by Bromwell, and upon returning one
week ago received from his wife confes-
sion that she had been seduced by Brow
we'll.
lie says he aiterward obtained evidence
confirming this. Prior to the shooting
Pratt and Bromwell were alone in the
private office OF the latter for quarter OF
ra hour, during which Pratt says he
charged Bromwell with the crime, and
then shot him. Both men are widely
known in business and social circles.
Pratt said that one OF his principal reasons
for the act grew out of the fact that his
wife, by reason OF her betrayal, has be-
come insane.

BONNIE KATE.
Her Singing and Dancing, Her Eyes
and Jewels

What a pleasure it was for the blaSe
thcatrc-goer to attend Miss Kate CASTLE
tons farcc-comcdy "A Paper DOLL" pre-
scented at the Grand last night! In spite
of the day being Good Friday. the house
was very we'll filled and both the manager
and the actors were very agrceably sur
priScd Everybody who attended received
their moneys worth, for there is but one
Kate CaStlctOn and but one such company
of thoroughly balanced, excellent actors.
In the whole evening something new,
fresh and bright was continually given to
the audience, and many pretty little SkitS
Of "huSneSS" were admirably worked in
along with the funniest comedy and good
music. many times adapted from pOpu-
lar airs. by Geo. \. Cragg. the jolly mu>i-
cal director Of the company.
The comedy has no great plot, only
enough to string ii along. as it were. on
wire and hold the three acts together, but
during its presentation opportunity was
allowed each OF the company OF eight to
give the best they had. Miss Grace Ottil
lie made a finished old Irish woman: Mr..
Harry {. Clarke and Mr.. Ben +. Grinncll
both were splendid as eccentric cOmedi-
ans. Richard 0. German was drOll and
made a big hit in Chinese imitation. and

possessed Of fine physique. pleasant
face. graceful pOiSo. sings well,
Ga Ia Fannie Rice. something's
dances well. and has a way
Of quietly using her eyes that not only
brings down the dudes but causes the
| maimSpringS Of the old fellows hearts to
whirr and snap. She has always been
paSSiOnatcly fond of pearls. and she has
made u fashion that is charming enough
| to please any woman, but likely TO be fol-
| lowed only by those whose husbands are
| English dukes or American milliOmaircS
| On her wedding day her husband, Harry
| Phillips. gave her as his bridal gift a row
| of the finest pearls to be found in America,
| having been informed Of her pcnchant for
| that particular gem. When the first an
| vrrsary Of her wedding day arrived he
| asked what she wished for gift. and She
| said another string Of pearls" and the
! second year She answered in the same
| way. After that he asked her no more,
| but always gave her the same gift. She
! has been married more years than it is
! gallant to count, and her necklace OF
| pearls counts by this time enough strings
! to quite cover her throat with a collar OF
! gems. Many SuperstitiOuS women are
| afraid of pearls as a wedding gift and say

not think this way
At matinee today there is a large at

Another IcVce Gone.

New ORLEANS, April "a dispatch
from ROsedale, Miss, dated yesterday,
says that the new levee at Catfish
Point, between Connelly's and f. F.
Miller's, broke at 4:3O p. m. and the
water is now rushing through the
gap, about six hundred feet wide.
The scene of this last mishap
is about eight miles south of
Bolivar Landing and comparative
ly near to the Easton crevasse.
Most of the plantations affected are
already more or less inundated by the
waters from breaks lower down at
EastOn's and Huntington. Many of
the best estates in the county will,
however, be flooded to a very COnsid-
cradle depth. Precautions have al.
ready been taken to protect stock and
70 human life is endangered. The
stream from the break will strike
across lake Bolivar, whicn is now
rising rapidly. The bustling little
town OF Bolivar near by, will proba-
bly, be partially overlooked, though it
stands on high ground.
