REBUILD THE OPERA HOUSE.

Shall the Metropolitan Opera House be re-
stored 1t will strike the musclovers OF New
York with something akin to CONSERVATION that
such question has been left open till now tor
discussion The Opera House and the species
of entertainment which it has domiciled have
been for eight years among the most potent
and significant factors in the artistic and social
life of the city More than any other factor
they have given distinctive character to That
life They have distinguished Newly ork from
the other cities of the Western Continent and
made II rival of tho ancient capitals OF
cultured Europe. Through their influence the
art which is the most direct OF all arts III the
work of spreading gentleness and refinement
has nourished during the last few years with
q luxuriance which may truthfully be said to
be without parallel in the history OF CIVILIZATION
1t would be ungracious to inquire into the
motives of the men who built the Opera House
and have maintained it till now. In view OF
the beautiful fruits that have been harvested, it
is immatera whether their purpose was 10
advance art culture or simply to add to the
gayety If the social season in the American
metropolis They have achieved both ends
and more They have come near TO making
the opera an essential thing 10 Newly rk.
Throughout its history opera has been an exotic,
not only in America, but in Great Britain. IL
has been merely the plaything OF fashion. The
METROPOLITAN establishment has educated a very
large portion of the public to an appreciation
Of the lyric drama which recognizes in it an
entertainment of perfect dignity and splendid
potency The generosity and public spirit OF
the Metropolitan stockholders have made this
education accessible to rich and poor alike.
They have filled the role which States, Art
Ministries and Kings play in the Old World.
They have been philanthrOpistS in very large,
4 very noble and very lasting sense. But the
work which they established is not complete.
IL will not have fulfilled its mission until
operas are sung for us in the yernacular a
we'll as they have been sung for two genera
lions in Italian, French and German; until
our music schools reach a plano of excellence
which will make it unnecessary for students OF
the ant in all its branches to seek instruction
in foreign lands. The history of the Metro
politan Opera House, in spite OF the instability
of policy which has checked the progress of
tho form of art to which il has been devoted, is
a peerless history, which challenges the pride
of the city and Nation, and has aroused the
envy and admiration of the world. Ii is the
record of the growth Of a new charm in the
social activities of the city. Newly York has
many praseworthy musical institutions, but
not one of them can take the place OF the
Metropolitan Opera House. Society cannot
spare it. Without it music will languiSh and
the progress of culture be interrupted.

AN EFFECTIVE SHOT.

To "kill two birds with one stone" has al
ways been considered the top notch of effective
execution. 1t has passed into a provcrb-a
proverb that in commences Of quotation is
about equal TO the other onthological state
ment that " a bird in the hand is worth two in
the bush," or that other one concerning birds
of feather" 1t does not appear that any
body ever did kill two birds with one stone.
If anybody did, his name and fame have been
lost. So far as we know the feat has never
been actually achieved except as figure of
speech. But here is a man in New-II Haven
Conn, an official of the county Jail, who has
just done something In the ornthOlogcal line
quite as remarkable as killing two birds with
one stone. lie killed one bird and broke three
statutory enactmcnts with one shot. IL was
last Sunday An eaglc-described as a big
American cagle'-after crcing through the air
over the jail for some time settled down on the
flagstaff OF that institution Whether the Jail
official was struck with the incongruity of the
bird of freedom perched over a penal institu-
ton where freedom was the exception and not
the rule, or whether he simply wanted stuffed
eagle does not appear, but he pulled up gun
and brought him down.
Gated. For there's a general law in Connect-
cut against killing an American eagle, with a
penalty of not less than $50 nor more than
$50 fine. Then there is a law against Sab
bath breaking, and in New Haven there is a
municipal ordinance against dscharging fire
arms within the city limits. On all these en-
actments the jail official, who doubtless in
tended no harm and had not the slightest idea
he was infringing single statute, jumped with
both feet when he fired his gun. This was
nothing like the shot fired by the embattlcd
farmer" that was heard round the world"
SO far as is known 1t was heard only in the
neighborhoed of the jail, and possibly did not
even disturb the devotons of the inmates of
that institution but when its effects are con-
Sdered. it was what "The Saturday Review"
or The London Times" would call "A corlSer"

a conservative view Of these preliminary electo-
raj contests-we cannot refuse to hail the vic
tory in Vermont as an encouraging indication
of what is to happen in November.
Owing to similar causes the reduction of the
vote in Vermont is not unlikely to be followed
next Monday by less decisive victory in Maine
than has sometimes been achieved. That
the Republicans will carry the State we have
little doubt, but our adversaries are making
a strenuous fight and do not expect to be over
whelmed A notable Republican triumph would
signify much but the party there and through
out the country would find in result some

inactivity, but cause for redoubled zeal and

1t is a melancholy fact that some millions
of reasonably intelligent human beings in all
parts of the world were intensely interested IN
the prize fight with gloves which was decided
in New Orleans last night. Educated people at
least ought to have higher things TO think OF
and to get excited over than the meeting OF
two big brutes who are trying to pound each
other into a collapse. But since the attention
paid to this affair has been so widespread, and
since so many people wish to learn the result
of the fight this morning TIE TRIBUNE prints
the news of it as inoffensvely as possible

prize-fghters in every country, was overcome
by younger. more nimble and alert adversary.
Corbett now assumes the championship among
the professional thumpers of the globe For
MANY weeks thousands of papers have been
prjnting pages upon pages about the sayings
and doings of John l.. Sullivan. This iron
listed gladiator of the ring will now sink into
comparative obscurity, while Corbett will be
Aattered and followed to a sickening extent.
II is to be hoped that however badly his head
NAV be turned by his discreditable eminence
he will not provo himself to be so insult cradle

Buffalo, and reports that the National League
Convention next Thursday and Friday bids fair
to be phenomenal success in point of num-

a place will be found for every Republican who
wishes to attend what will assuredly be a
memorable convention.
