OF Madame Mapleson, who appears
at the Opera House Friday and Satur-
day, the Boston Traveller says:
A large audience was present at Music
Hall last evening to hear Mrs. Laura
STANDARDIZATION as Lucia. Some OF
those present remembered the young
lady's appearance in 1879. when slight
girlish figure came tripping on the stage
OF the Globe theatre in the opera OF the
Grown Diamonds" but they were
hardly prepared last evening to see the
magnillcentspecimen ofglorious woman
hood, who stepped out in Donizettis
famous opera. There has been an i'm
provement in her voice as well as in her
physique. 1t is clear, vibratory, and
under tho most perfect control. The
mad scene was splendidIy done, and in
it she showed n dramatic strength,
which was little expected in her earlier

MRS. NAEsEn,s REClrAn
At tho Misses Cummins's Last Evening
ON Artistic Success.

At tho Dlisses Cummins's Last Evening
on Artistic Success.
Owing to the dampness prevailing in
the atmosphere and under foot, the at
tendance at the recital given by Mrs.
Naeser at tho residence OF the Misses
Cummins, last night, was not OF the
magnitude it should have been, but in
appreciation it was as il the parlors
were crowded.
Beginning promptly at eight o'clock
the fine programme was rendered. The
Second Rhapsodte" Of List was per-
formed by Mrs, Naeser, assisted by Miss
Belle Cummins, in u truly grand style.
This piece gives one the impression OF
a scene in the country, over which n
storm sweeps, followed By clear skies,
when all OF Gods creatures voice their
Chopin's "Scherzo" was interpreted
in skillful manner by Mrs. Naeser.
An Audante Capriccio OF Mendel-
sohn was perfectly executed by Mrs.
Naeser.
Mr.. Spells rendering OF Bethoven's
Romances +. and Il. Major showed true
musical taste.
D0Vlu Is composer VI WIluLu w hcSI-
ing has heard very little, but by the
assistance OF Mr.. Spell some OF his beau.
tiful ideas were developed. The
'Audante, Sherzo, Capriccio" was exc
cuted In a mastery manner which
developed to the fullest extent the
various beauties in the piece.
Mrs. Nascr's rendering OF Godnrd's
Valse and Mazurka was exceedingly
happy and brought ont some new must
cal forms in the French style,
Mrs. Naeser is pianist of no ordin-
Ary ability, but one whose musical sem
sibilities are extremely we'll developed,
and in the numbers OF this recital fuller
expression or feeling than she showed
is hardly possible.
1t is hoped that the series OF rccitals
will be continued and that tho music
loving public will encourage more OF
this class OF music, which, when prop
erIy understood, has the effect Of up
lifting the feelings OF humanity.

IN the editorial columns of a jour- nal having ,lie s.andiHg 0. the Gh.be- Democrat one would expect to find sqnCre dealing in the discussion of any subject II might deem worthy of consideration. l. is rher6 fore more than surprising that the GlCbe-Demo- crat should stOop 10 such unfair criii- cism as it did few mornings since in regard 10 the admission Of Ar.Zona and New Mexico. The Globe-Demo- crat charges that the percentage Of ilai,eracy in these ter ritories Is greater than in any other section of tine W, st and that partisanship on the part Of A DemOcraiic House was the cole cause of the course of action that determined the passage Oi the bill. On this rotten plank, it then proceeds to give us d flashing for having the impudence to seek admission into the galaxy. Now, why not consider the illiteracy of the older states as we'll As the west? Why not give just consideration 10 the fact that in Arizona the popular vote l. very evenly diyided7 The facts are that the percentage of illiteracy in Arizona is less than in almost any other section of the United States i; and that the vote in Arizona Is su close on party lines as to drown the cry of partisanship on the issue of ad- mission. According to the Globe Democrat the white population of Arizona bears a comparatively small ratio to the aggregate This is also false, as is we'll known. The fact is very grea. triumph as a newspaper. yet in the political arena it is ultra partisan, and iu this case, both through ignorance and party feaiiy, has made assertions that j: cannot Lroye. The G;,be-Democrat draws comfort from the probability that the Senate will crush the bill, and that ii the measure should pass that bcdys there would siilI be Inc Presidential veto, and in conclusion, says:
 "Neitber territory is ripe for admis- sion yet, although each has been m its present stage for many years. Il would scarcely be wise to let these territories in now. They arc not ye' fully prepared Tor the honors and re- responsibilities of statehood. Perhap, in few more yeaIs their people may be fitted for self government and the creditable performance of the dutir: O. American citizens, and when ihi' time comes the country will cheerful, confer on them the privileges and dig mites which they seek"

June 10.
 This is the hottest day of the seas- on.
 c. w. Beckwith, the surveyor for the Copper Queen Con. Mining Co, has lately erected an elegant five room cottage on the lot adjoining W. H. Brophy's residence. It is rumored that Charlie is meditating taking a partner, to look after his house, in the not far distant future. The old Dame however, is very unreliable in her prognostications. It is the general supposition that she is more than half right this time.
 There are about 250 teachers in the territory. At least 99 out of every 100 are dissatisfied with the text books al present authorized. Some weeks ago ar opportunity was offered by the superintendent of public instruction to bring about a change. Of the 25O just 10 had enough mental energy to answer the letter sent out. 240 were eilher mentally too lazy or shiiiless to exert themselves a trifle to bring about a change that all admit ought to be made.
