MUSIC.
THE NEW OPERETTA.

amlahle EhSiinhmcn has been III performed
in this country, fact which is douby dcplorablc.
for not only do Americans deserve better at the hands
Of the authors and their manager By reason Of the
sincere admiration and generous patronage bestowed
on the productions Of Gilbert and sullivan but
not one OF these productions hitherto performed in
America stood much in need OF careful intelligent
and artistic presentation The GOndOliorss The
subtitle Of tie operetta, The King Of Barataria,'
contains a suggestion Of shrlmps 20 the American
mind and this word, in its old English meaning,
describes the artistic stature Of the company that
has been brought across the water 70 introduce the
work to the American metropolis The company is
indeed " 4 weak AMI WTtlcd shrimp" but II differs
from him whom Shakespeare thus designated by
striking terror not 20 it, enemies but to those who
would like 10 be it friends. Considering the fact
that Mc,,rs. Gilbert and sullivan have enjoyed more
of the favor OF the American people than any living
puIveyors to their amusement, ho criticism Of the
performance at the New Park Theatre on Tuesday
evening be too severe. It presented the English
manag ment in the light IF persons who considered any
thing good enough for people Of whom IL was
kn0wn that they would welcome the work with
an eagcrness that w0uh be more amiabic than
critical.

Sensational accounts of the prevailing in
fuenza are TO be severely condemned, what
ever quarter they proceed from. To alarm
people unnecessarily at such a time as this is
little short OF criminal. But it is right and
proper that the readers Of the newspapers
should be made acquainted with the simple
facts-such. for instance, a. the notable in
crease in the death-rate during the last few
DAYS This is clearly matter of legitimate
news. and the Health Board would increase
rather than diminish the concern which the
strange maady has produced if they should
undertake to conceal it. The lesson which the
large number OF deaths ought to convey to in
telligent minds is the necessity Of the great

French Ideas of Rewarding meri..

I should like to answer a question which I am constantly being asked: "How is it that the French, who arc such admirers of pluck, adventure, the advancement of science, etc., not only do not lionize Stanley, but even give him the cold shoulderp Ear be it from me to reply that the French do not recognize the great feats of this great explorer; but they are sentimental people, and when they see man of this kind make, financially, good thing out of his ex- ploits they consider that he has his re- ward, and they cannot be made to see where the bands of music and hat way ing come in. If Cincinnatus had been a Frenchman he would be saint in the eyes of the French; but a Wolseley in enjoyment of gold and title would never be considered to need niche or pedestal in addition.
 If M. Pasteur had charged 8 guinea every time he inoculated a patient mo- body would have objected; nay, it would have been thought quite right and natural; but he would not have been regarded as entitled to hero wor- ship. It is because M. Pasteur is known never to have taken a cent for himself from his patients that he is idolized by his countrymen. They admire in him . benefactor of the human race, and 1t f1atters their pride to claim him as product of French soil. Call this senti- mentality if you will, I am neither com mending nor condemning it, but stating the plain fact.-Max O'Rell in Washing. ton Star.

;oJtt::t iisp .tshes indicate that lEe elections went of very harmon eously. In several instances the negroes were reported to have made an attempt 10 steal the ballot boxes, but were promptly frustrated by the sheriff and d posse who had doubtless entertained premonitions of something of the kind and had prepared for an emergency. The dispatches from another quarter state that several hundred negroes were simply attempting to vote and had nc designs on the ballot depository. But that's "niggah's word"

Burglars Caught by Electricity.

Electric burglar catching has re- ceived an impetus in Paris at the hands of an enterprising wine merchant in the Rue Secretan, who has just land ed his fifth man in the following way: There is no concierge for his premises, and he has had his store connected with the room occupied by his walters by means of an electric wire. When the burglar enters the bell in the walters room rings and the intruder is quietly rabbed. The wine merchants experi- ment, has been so successful that several ether traders in the vicinity have adopt ed his modus operandi, and are now Yerning for real live midnight ma tanoS b come their way-Exchange.

Something New and Good

Col. Durr has again made step for ward as a public benefactor. It had come to his ears recently, that some of the ladies of Tucssn were complaining about the beer sold in this city being bitter. Being on confidential terms with his grandmother, famous old lady who has spent her lifei n studying the likes and dislikes of her sex, he wrote her, explaining what was the matter with the ladies of Tucson. The grandmother knew at once the remedy, and straight way sent carload cf the celebrated Extra Pale Erlanger Standard Beer. This beer arrived yesterday, and has been sampled by the best judges in this city. and pronounced the best family beer in the West. It is just the thing for the ladies, and no bitter taste is car ried with it. The Colonel asks that every family try few bottles of this beer, and feels confident that they will have no other afterwards. The grandmother has never made a mistake about the wants and needs of Tucson, and will answer for the satisfaction given by this new hAAr with her reputation, which is good.
 Tno Colonel has been instructed to sell this beer at So per bbL and s2.20 per doz., so that all ma. share in the luxury nd benefits afforded b. it's use.

WE understand MT. Zeigenfuss is Edi- tor of the Governors Republican. We have a very estimable opinion of Mir. Zeigenfuss, both as gentleman and a newspaper man; but MT. Zeigenfuss is laboring under mental alteration when he assumes that there is string on the Editor of the CITIZEN. The only string we have seen since crossing the hne was a gee string at Yuma. Being a stranger we have no prejudice against the Governor or any one else. We have not ed however that there seems to be dis position on the part of the press of the Territory, with one, or possibly two ex- captions to make light of the governor and question his ability; and that the Republican, which IS an excellent paper in it's make up, is accused of being per sonal organ," and of being started for the purpose of exterminating the old tune Republican papers We noticed also in the last issue of the Republican an allusion to sir Brewster Cameron, which would indicate that Mir. Gamer on might have been iailbird, but we are informed here at Tucson that he is a worthy, energetic and reputable citi- zen, and that the article was simply written because Of some personal spleen which Governor Wolhey felt against Mir. Cameron. We need enlightment on these things, and trust that before the campaign closes we shall have become sufficiently familiar with the ins and outs, to take an active part. Clean poli- tics should be the ambition of every true American.

THE execution of Kemmler by electri- city as an experiment was not brll liant sue ess. Three times the charge was applied and each time the prisoner showed signs of life. The doctors say there was no consciousness, but there never is when scientific experiment Is to be made. The greed for examining a mans brain or liver is becoming para mount to everything else. In what man ner a mans organization is supposed to change inwardly because he is convicted of crime has not been mentioned in the lelegramE.

NOTWITHSTANDING the fact that the execution of Kemmler by electricity was horrible affair, we see no grounds for assertion that the theory of eIectrocution is wrong. Mismanage- nent on the part of those in charge, more than a faulty apparatus, seems to have been the cause of the failure of the first execution by electricity. There are however frequent accidents in hang ing by the breaking Of the rope pre- matu'ely. The new system promises to be more humane than the old and should be given a far chance to prove
 l,a virtues that 1t claims.

The Value of a Silver Dollar.

Senator Jones, of Nevada, was twitted by Senator McPherson, of New Jersey, in the course of his silver speech with the fact that the silver dollars were only worth seventy-two cents. Of course it reminded him of little story"
 ''I recollect," said he, talking on this subject once with some senators in the cloak room. During the conversa- ton one of the senate pages brought me 8 telegram, on which he said the tele- graph messenger had told him there were fifty cents due. I gave the page 8 silver dollar and said to him:
 '''I have been informed by some very respectable and intellectual gentlemen in here, some of them candidates for the presidency even, that this dollar is worth onlyseventy-fiv cents. l do not want to cheat little boy. Take this out, and if the boy thinks it is worth only seventy five cents he can send me back twenty five cents, and if he thinks it is worth a dollar he can send me back fifty cents. I will leave it to him.
 "The page brought back fifty cents and said the telegraph boy told him he did not know what those old 'duffers' in there might say, but it was as good a dollar as he wanted and was very hard to get."-Cor. New York Tribune.
