the queens of light opera, has the leading
female part, which, it is needless to say, she
sings admirably. Mrs. Laura Joyce Bell, who
is hardly less favorte than her husband, is
also In the company. the other leading mem
bers of which are Josephine Knapp, Hubert
Wilke, Charles Wayne, Hilda Hollins, and
Maud Hollins. The company is even stronger
than it was during the operas long run at
Palmer's Theatre, New York, and the music
loving people of Washington may rely on
witnessing one of the most enjoyable light
opera performances given here in years.

THEY Col A PITCHER FULL.


-
Sheriff Reeves and Chief of Police Du-
mas Friday evening raided the premises Of
a. II. Norton, at the corner of Cherry and
Champlain streets, and secured a pitcher
full Of beer. Norton met the officers at the
front door, and led the way at a
pretty rapid pace through two rooms.
The third reached, he grabbed a
pail of beer and doused 1t
into the sink. The pleasure of his meet
ing with the officers had SO unnerved him,
however, that he forgot to turn on tho
water and Sheriff Reeves, with the uso Of a
small tin cup succeeded in saving about a
pitcher full of the liquor. 1t proved to be
beer.
Sheriff Reeves searched the premises run
by I. II. Murphy on Main street Friday
afternoon, but the string was pulled too
quick and no liquor was secured.

She Is Turning to Bone.

Mrs. Mollie Hughes, n highly respected
widow lady, living near Camerville. Ida.
is afflicted with unique and most dis
tressing disease. Little by little the flesh
of her entire body is turning to solid bone.
or in other words she is becoming ossified.
The disease was first noticed in 1886 when
Mrs. Hughes was Miss Duychink, of Can
yon Rapids. At that time only a single fin
ger was affected Within a month after
the time when Miss Duychink first no.
ticed the numbness and stiffness of the fin
ger it had been accidentally broken off
while she was asleep.
The incident gave the girl no pain, there
being neither blood, nerves or flesh left in
the diseased member, but it excited the
alarm of the family, who called in a physi-
clan. The broken stump of the finger was
amputated back to where the living flesh
set on, and everything was thought to be
all right. Soon the flesh, muscles, arteries.
veins and nerves on her hands, fingers and
arms became as hard and feelingless as the
finger had been before it was broken off.
Next the awful malady extended to the
elbows, the forearms becoming as white
and clear alabaster. Within the year
the toes and the end of the nose and ear
tips showed a like color and rigidness. The
process of Justification has now been going
on nearly five years, and the attending q
physicians says that it is only matter of
time when the entire body of the poor vic
tim will be a solid bone. 1t is a rare dis
ease. and the pathology of it is little under
stood.-St. Louis Republic.

There are $4,000 bakers in London, of
whom 5000 are foreigners, mostly Ger
mans. Foremen bakers get from five
dollars to eight dollars week, second
hands from four dollars to five dollars a
week, third hands from two dollars to
three dollars a week. The hours of labor
range from twelve to fifteen hours day
and on Saturdays from twenty to TWEEN
ty-three hours. Most of the small bakers
-;ssst.ssses-t heir own foremen.
The majority of the bakehouses are
miserable Underground cellars. overrun
with reaches, mice and other vermin.
The cellars are SO i'll ventilated and SO
unhealthy that the bakers ;tre subject to
number of special diseases, all of
which may be communicated to the con-
sumers of the bread they make. for they
are mostly diseases of the skin, and the
bakers in these dens, as a rule, work
stark naked from their waists up, and
there is generally no accommodation of
any kind for washing except in the
kneading tubs.-New York Recorder
