The Calhoun Comic Opera company,
which presents "Said Pasha" at Light
house theater next Wednesday, jan
uary A, is new organization, the prin-
cipals and a large contingent of the
chorus having been selected from the
late Carleton and Juch opera COM
panies. 1t is under the management
Of James II. Shank, the well-known
manager of Chicago, and will be the
strongest operate attraction that has
ever visited this city. The Livingston,
Mont, Enterprise contains the follow
ing relating to recent production of
"Said Pasha' in that city by this COM
pany:
The presentation on Wednesday
evening of this bright and popular
OPERA was attended by packed house.
The curtain rose displaying scene of
oriental splendor representating the
Pasha's palace in Constantinople. The
plot is not very elaborate and contains
in the first act the love affair of the
Pasha's daughter with Hassan Bey,
commander of the body guard, the
efforts of the father to prevent the
match and the disguise of the daughter
as a sailor, in which character she
Joins the Pasha's expedition to India.
The second act represents the Rajah's
palace in India and the tableauX of the
sleep-walking queen brought forth
loud applause. Mr.. Thompson, as Said
Pasha, was suffering from a severe cold,
but in spite Of it gave a pleasing rep
resentation Of that monarch. Miss
Millard, as Serena, and Miss Calhoun,
as the Rajah's queen, were bewitching
and sang their parts delightfully."-. The
musical feature was the singing of the
tenor part by Mr.. Pache in the char.
acter of the Mexican adventurer in
search of his ideal beauty. But Said
Pasha is more comedy than opera and
this feature was most carefully devel
oped by Messrs. Flint and Calhoun, as
Hadad, an adventurer, and Mock, who
assumed to be an idiot, and Miss Nellie
Hartley, the awful sister of the Rajah
The acting of these gentlemen and
lady was something long to be remem
bered by those who witnessed it..

New Populiat Scheme

TOPEKA, Kas., Dec. 3O-The Popu-
lists propose to inaugurate new plan
for making loans in this state, which
owing to high rates of interest and
brokers charges cause many thousands
of industrious men to lose their homes
through the foreclosure of mortgages.
The scheme is to create state loan
commission, through which all loans
shall be negotiated. The money would
pass through the state treasury, and
payment would be guaranteed either
by the state or counties, thus doing
away with brokers charges and secur-
ing a low rate of interest. Governor
Llewellyn in his annual message will
recommend the scheme.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 30-A remark
able scene was witnessed in Judge
Hubbard's superior court room this
morning during the trial of the suit of
the executors of Mervyn Donahue
against the Hotel San Rafael corpora
ton. Some time ago the directors of
the corporation were fined $500 for con-
tempt for disobeying the injunction of
the court, but execution thereon had
not been issued. This morning AttOr-
ney Charles Hanlon, who represents
the plaintiffs, entered his bill of costs,
which, on motion of ex-Superior Judge
%. p. Evans, counsel for defendants,
Judge Hubbard ordered stricken out.
Evans then asked a stay of execution
in the matter of the $500 fine. This
greatly astonished Hanlon, who asked
if Evans had not promised him if the
bill of costs be not pressed Evans clients
would pay the fine. Evans denied hav-
ing so stated, and then Hanlon called
him liar. The exjudge retaliated by
shooting his right fist into Hanlon's
face, and in minute the two attorneys
were hammering each other about the
court room. A bailiff was ordered tC

An Immortal Play

One cannot help but wonder why it
is that "Uncle Toms Cabin always
proves a drawing card, and yet there is
nothing very wonderful about it when
once the plot and presentation Of this
realistic drama is taken into considera-
ton. We have read "Uncle Toms
Cabin" as many as twenty times and
always with absorbing interest, and 50,
too, we have seen it presented on the
stage forty times, and it seems as if we
enjoy the last better than any previons
rendition. There are some plays like
"Uncle Tom" and Grip Van Winkle"
that will never wear out. There is
that about the plot of "Uncle Toms
Cabinn-a combination of drama,
comedy, wit, humOr and pathos, all
blended so naturally and realistic-that
the audience lives through it all, be-
come part Of the players ON the stage

New York, Oct. 6.-The woman &C
cuSed of smuggling paintings valued
at $4,000 is said by the custom house
authorities to be the divorced wife OF
William Campbell, the millionaire wall
paper manufacturer. She is now the
wife of an Italian named Dioaccie. Of
Naples, Italy.
Mrs. Campbell called at the Customs
house today very angry and said she
called to prefer charges against Inspec-
tor Iraitteur. He was she said, con-
cerned i'll the charge of smuggling again
her i'll order that he might take pos
session OF paintings which belonged to
her. His motive, she charged, was re-
yenge, because she did not reciprocate
his passion for her. She declared he
pursued her to Saratoga and other
places to make love to her.
Deputy Collector Phelps took the
papers, but did not give Mrs. Campbell
much satisfaction.
Nearly three months ago the Customs
house officers began to watch Mrs.
Campbell. About that time she entered
great many paintings us household
goods and personal effects. She took
the usual oath at the time, that she
used the goods abroad for Il year and
they We're not intended for sale. The
officials learned that the woman had not
been across the ocean for two years
and lived continually here. They learn
ed that she stored them away in storage
houses ana auction rooms in this city
and had had a catalogue printed and
sent around. The woman disposed OF
many paintings.
Some of the paintings are by Leo
nardo DaNinci, and one of them is the
famous picture, Christ Carrying the
Cross, valued ut $4,000. There are two
by Rubens and a number by ether old
| masters. SiXty-nine are by Italian mas
tiers who lived prior to the sixteenth
century.

Mr.. Frank McNiver, of New Jersey,
in the American Agriculturist, gives the
following description of the old ''straw
bee hives" still used in some parts of
Germany, we believe:
While the old straw cOne-shaped bee
hive is referred to III hundreds of works
on Bookkeeping, and in encyclopedias,
we do not now remember of ever read
ing any direction for, or description Of,
their r2nufactUre. 1t may be THAI
authors generally have considered the
process too simple to need describing,
for these hives are usually made Of
braided straw forming ropes an inch or
or two in diameter and these are laid
around a form of the required size, and
then skewered together to give solidity,
and keep the hive in shape when re-
moved. A full size straw hive will
hold about three pecks, but they are
sometimes smaller. They have been
generally discarded because they af-
ford an excellent hiding place for the
worms of the bee-moth, and are very
difficult to keep clean. and in no way
superior to hives made of pine boards,
which are also cheaper and far more
convenient for dividing swar1ns, remov-
ing surplus honey, etc.
