FRANCIS WILSON'S NEW OPERA.
1t Is Better Than His Old ones-what
He Does on the Stage.

1t Is Better Than His Old nes-wh
He Does on che Stage.
Francis Wilson's new opera, "The Lion
Tanner" has already had a run in New
York long enough to prove it to be a sub.
stant1al success. From some points OF
view it shows little merit as u literary or a
musical effort, bat every one agrees that it
Is funny and Mr. Wilson's public asks for
nothing more.
The opera, as its name indicates, tells
the story OF the joys and SORROWS of a circus
performer-Casimir. In the first act he is
the owner Of the show. but is badly in debt
and beset by enemies, who buy up the
claims against him and press him for
money. They are all in love with his wife,
Angelina, an equestrienne. To escape from
his creditors the lion tanner disappears and
circulates the story that he is dead. While
wandering about, disguised, he tries to
s~traighten out an unhappy low affair and
is discovered by the father of the girl in
the case in what the old man considers a
situation compromising to his daughter.

IT. frequently pleases the newspa-
pers of Great Britain and the Conti-
nent to crlticise those OF the United
States for the manner in which they
present the news, charging, often
without good cause, exaggcration and
sensationalism. While the journals
of this country may not aspire to nor
possess all the pondereus dignity or
those of Europe, it is seldom that
they can be truthfully accused Of the
more serious offense, which the in
yestigation of the Panama Canal
scandal has brought to light in ref
erence to the journals of France. The
examination of the affairs OF the DE
Lesseps wrecked canal project by the
legislative investigating committee
elected the information that large
sums had to be expended in conciliat-

the enlightenment of the general
public on the weaknesses of the
schemes and the corruption of its
managers. In one instance, out OF

Chinese Surgery.

Like most things in China, the
practice of surgery differs considera-
bly, from that in vogue in less en-
lightened Western countries. Bone
setting in the Celestial Empire Is a
complicated affair, and doubtless
more efficacious than European meth
DDS. in setting a fractured limb the
surgeon does not attempt to bring
the bones together, but merely wraps
the limb in red clay, inserting some
strips of bamboo into the clay. These
strips are swathed in bandages, and
in the outer bandage the head OF a
live chicken is placed. Here comes in
the superior science OF the celestial.

strating that the divorce was illegal,

A cARPINe spirit rarely goes with a
working spirit. 1t is easier to find
fault with what some one else does
than it is to do something ones self {;
hence a man who enjoys doing the

harder one. AS a rule, men are
divided into the two classes of those
who growl and those who work, and
each class is alike devoted to his own
mission. But when it comes to the

The vigilance of the national

physicians of the United States
Marine Hospital service to Europe,
Tor the purpose of devising precau-

merits the cordial commentator OF

summer are the seasons when the
likelihood of a cholera epidemic lis
greatest. If it gets here it will, un-
doubtedly, come through immigra-
ton. The government physicians
will travel incognito, and will ex-

ports OF departure for immigrants.
