Negotiations have been completed be-
tween France and Brazil for the protection Of
the literary property OF the authors OF the Two
countries By their respective Governments.
We do not hear much about Brazilian litera-
ture but 1t is a fact that Brazil has not few
authors who have produced valuable books OF
science and history and political economy and
poetry. dramatic and epic. Thore are In Brazil

Carleton Opera Company.

W. z. Carleton's opera company will sing
'Indigo,' ''Nanon'' and 1.-The Gondoliers''
at the opera house next week, beginning
Sunday night. "Indigo'' was composed by
Strauss. It is said to be as tuneful and
catchy as all of the famous composers
works. 1t is pervaded by dreamy Strauss
waltzes. Much of the music is oriental in
order to be in keeping with the scenes.
The first act opens with a scene in the
harem Of King Indigo. and %discovers his
ladies in waiting reclining on Persian rugs,
gently tanning themselves as they softly
sing a sentimental waltz song. The music
ducing harmony both in execution and
movement. King Indigo supplies the
comedy. Ali Bahia and Baby An
SON. a tiny donkey, augment the fun.
The blue Danube'' and Thousand and
One Nights waltzes are but samples of the
beautiful music which characterizes "In-
digo.' These are sung by the entire
strength Of Carleton's company and to the
accompaniment of an augmented orches-
ira.
III scenery is all new, and it;was painted
by Clare, of New York, under Mr.. Carleton's
personal supervision. 1t is said to be
bright and pleasing, and contains many
novel effects. The costumes are also new.
They are the handiwork Of Worth. OF Pan.
Carleton's opera company is we'll known
throughout the country. 1t has the repu-
tation of being one of the best drilled of
any on the road. 'Indigo will be suns

adapted from Mrs. Burnett's story by Gus
Thomas, was produced last night to a

semblage that gathered to welcome Mr..
Grismer and Miss Phoebe Davies in their

was kindly, but there is very little room
for comment. otherwise Than compli-

to thoroughly appreciate the clever work of
the people i'll tho cast of THE Burglar"
1t was a very clever performance in every
respect, and it is no wonder that the play
has been so successful elsewhere. The
author has accomplished quite a feat in
producing such a play from the charming
little story which forms its basis.

berry at Mann, Cascade county, Mont.
'"The Montana mail robbery case, in which

Barnum, Esq, has acquired considerable
notoriety, has awakened a lively interest
among the old settlers herea bouts. OF
course no person is absolutely exempt or
safe from false accusations. and it is posi-
BILE for guilt to exist where least suspected,
but the good people of this region, where
tho family of Mr.. Barnum has resided
for many years, will be slow to believe
them to be guilty of any participation
in the crime charged, or any crooked
mes s whatever. Through a long term of
years, and sometimes under trying circum-

appear to have become entangled in their

The father, a fine appearing old gentle
man, is now in the county Jail with his two
sons, Edward and Roger. Mrs. Barnum,
who was also indicted, is out on bail and is
at her home on tbs ranch near Mann with
her two young daughters.

A WORD ABOUT THE W. G.. T. U


The announcement that the Womans
Christian Temperance union in conven-
ton at Boston, decided to nail prohibit
ton to the masthead occasions the fol-
lowing comment from the Portland
Oregonian:
"This means that, ignoring all means
of curtailing the drink evil, all efforts to
reform the industrial drunkard, of les
sening the power and demoralizing in
1uence of the saloon by restricting it
within bounds that practical experience
has shown to be the limit of repression
under the present state of popular senti-
ment, it will continue to waste it's
strength upon a task utterly impossible
Of accomplishment in this generation"
We think the Oregonian's structures
harsh and not warranted by conditions
under which this organization has
labored and will continue to labor. To
begin with, they do mot ignore all
methods of c%urtailing drink, all efforts
to reform the industrial drunkard" in
their advocacy of %prohibitory laws. In
nearly every great city in this land they
have started coffee. houses, reading
rooms, and have worked on the lines of
charity and kindness to rid society
of the liquor evil. They believe
in using every practical means to bring
about temperance reform and have
worked earnestly, brayely and success
fully to this end. AS a body and in con-
vention they have made prohibition the
strong argument, and we agree with
Oregon contemporary that earnestness
in this line, if turned to other channels
of temperance reform, might have been
productive of more results. Still, it is a
matter Of opinion, and the ladies' are en-
titled to their side of the question, and
they are not at all slow in presenting
arguments worthy of consideration.
They do not contine their work to any
one system, but to all systems which
produce good results. The good they
have done cannot be measured on this
earth. There have been times when
the W. G. r. u, like our political
parties, has come under criticism for
exaggerated statements, and over bitter
Recommendations by some of the leading
spirits, but us a body it is devoted to
good purposes. and has accomplished
good things.
