"Under the City Lamps."

OhueE tho OlCy LampS.
 "Under the City Lamps," a melo. drama of unusual merit, will be pro. duced at the opera house next Wednes- day evening.
 "The Vendetta"
 "The Vendetta" will be the attraction at the Jacques opera house Tuesday evening. The production is spoken of by the entire press as being marvellous for its many mechanical effects. Two tremendous steamships complete in every detail crash into each other in mid ocean causing terrific collision at sea. The prison at Toulon, Monte Carlo and the burning of Paris are just as noted in their way. The company is composed of well known artists.
 "The Burglar"
 "The Burglar" has very interesting plot, so wound up that it strikes the hours of progress with dramatic effect highly suggestive of genius in the author. The incidents are all nicely arranged, while all the characters are so Rrtistically drawn and personated as to lead to finale that must be productive of good. It will be presented at the opera house this evening.

A MAINE EPIS0DE.

It is said that guilty conscience needs
 no accuser, but occasionally an accuser
 will prove an effective spur to guilty
 conscience. We have all heard of the man
 who lost his umbrella and advertised that
 the one who took 1t was known and if he
 didn't return it he would have trouble.
 The next morning the advertiser found his
 front yard full of umbrellas. An interest
 ing illustration of what con science will do
 when aided by fear of disc overy has just
 been given in Maine village. A ades-
 man had missed articles from his stock
 from time to time, and at length the olerk k
 saw a woman take things she did not buy and pay for. This Furnished the desired opportunity. An advertiee ment in the paper over the merchants signature said
 he had positive proof that ''some of the best ladies" of the town had taken articles from his store, and if matt ters were not fixed up there would be 8 rumpus. There was rumpus in several breasts, and so far four women have be en in to "settle up," with possibly more to follow. One woman came from an adjoin- ing town to admit that she took up an srti- cle one day with the thought of stealing it, but repented and put it back again.
 We wonder how such an advertisement would work in New Haven. Of course none of the s'best ladies" of this village would respond to 1t, and we think 1t doubtful if any would. The women who steal in storss hsre steal for keeps, and they probably wouldn't bs made cow ardly enough Ky conscience to be afraid | that merchant who might advertise as the Maine merchant did had really caught \ Ehem.

 Of the firm of Boulsnger, Maillert & Co.,, of Geneva, Switzerland, who conduct the chief watch dial manufactory in that country, the local and experimenting partner is bright and charming young woman in the early twenties. Helen Mail lert is Genevese by birth. She graduated with the highest honors from the best school in Switzerland when very young, then went to Germany to continue her studies. When she returned it was her fathers desire that she should assist him in his business, and she was happy in gratifying his wish both, from her flial love and her delight in technical studies and developments.

LICENSE AND NO LICENSE.

l LICENSE AND NO LICENSE. 1 The advocates of ''No License" made an
 earnest effort in this city Tuesday, and the
 result of their work was seen in a vote for l no license about double that of last year. Those who brought out this vote are in good spirits and they intend, we believe,
 to fight on until they find out that they
 can or cannot carry this town. They ad- I init that there are at least two sides to the question, but they feel sure that theirs is ] the right side.
 In theory no license means prohibition. In practice it has been found to be some- thing very different in many localities, and munity can have at the same time no license and faithful and efficient officials to enforce the law the sale of intoxicating drinks can be very much decreased But the combination is unusual, and so no license is apt to prove as unsatisfactory as license even to those who believe in 1t. How it may work can well be seen in our
 neighbor State Massachusetts, where the
 people in some of the cities try no license until they are disgusted and then return to
 license until they get disgusted with that.
 It is noticeable that this year in Massachu- setts most of the changes were from no
 license to license. Fitchburg is tho only city which changed from license to no
 license, while no fewer than seven changed the other way. In some places the revo-
 lution in public sentiment was overwhelm-
 ing. Fall River, for example, declared for
 no license last year, and in favor of license
 this year by 8 vote of 7,413 to 3,363; and
 the change in Taunton was almost ss ex-
 traordinary. The main reason given is
 that the nolcense policy in such cities
 really meant free rum, and the people con-
 cludsd that, If liquor was going to be sold
 anyway, 1t was better that the sellers
 should pay something for the privilege.

It Is joined to @ round yoke, cut in one with the high collar, and the former is finished with two circular ruf1ss, the lower one pointed, the upper one square, and both garnished with braid. The seam Is covered with a heavy silk cord. The second coat Is made of brown, faintly plstded cheviot and buttons in front. The sleeves are plain and the dou. ble circular cape Is made separately and is apart from the whole. The fronts of the coat, the two capes and the turned down collar are garnished with bands of wide and narrow braid.
 The toque worn with the coat just de scribed might as we'll be of home making. It takes two pieces of green velvet eleven inches square put on to have the inner sides overlap each other. They must not

THE VAN ALIEN SCANDAL.

The Van Alen scandal shows no signs of dying out, notwithstanding the very in- genious collaboration of Van Alen and President Cleveland in an attempt to clay it. The only thing accomplished by that attempt was to put the President in an even worse place than he occupied before. It was plain that he had given Van Alen an office because Van Alen contributed generously to his campaign fund. It has been plain since he and Van Alen publicly "corresponded" concerning the matter that he is oontemptuous of the public opinion which Van Alen has had the good sense and the tact to yield to. The Prest- dent says, in effect, to Van Alen: "Never mind what they say about our lit- tie deal. It is all right, and there is nothing that we need to take notice of in the voice of the people concerning it," His course is either one of stupid obstinacy or bold bluff. The people care very much about such per formances, and they are especially offended because the practice of the President in this matter has been so very different from | the fine theories which he has go often put forth. Even that faithful worshippsr ot his, the New York Evening Post, feels ob Iged to say: President Cleveland wa. about the last man in America to expose himself to tais rebuke.

 LONDON, Nov. 23. To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 To the traveller in Norway the impres- sion is constantly recurring that the coun- try possesses the greatest amount of ma jestic scenery and the fewest people of any bsbitable land on the face of the globe. Perhaps this feeling is strongest with the wanderer on foot along the mountain high ways. What might be termed the supera- bundance of nature's tremendous specta- cles often saddens and even sppalls the spectator, who finds scant relief in human contact or even in that scenic contrast which provides repose from awe-inspired emotions.
 These psnoramas of nature have been provided in such vast proportions and are so endless in number that something like head d-ache and heart ache follow the unre- lieved emotional tension. One involunta- rily cries out, in the surfeit of 1t all, for | respite; just as one who has passed with unwrecksd mind through the mountain | height spiritual and sound tornadoes of Wsgner's "Parsifal," at Bayreuth, feels that reason might be easily dethroned If the human gaieties of Berlin and Paris were not conveniently near to assist in | speedy restoration.
 Without 8 companion I should have de- spaired of trsmping more than from one dreary station to another. Indeed I find love best the lands of peoples, of activi. ties and homes. The mile-posts, as would be remarked in dear old Ireland, are toe far apart in Norway. There are too much of frozen field and glsoier-peaked noun. tain between clusters of homes. And when, after always journeying long and far, you come upon human kind, while you certainly meet honest folk, hospitable folk and, universally, folk possessing extraor. dinary virtues of mind and character, yor still detect the ineffsbie sadness and ap pslling loneliness of surrounding nature reflected in their facss; as you will find the world over, vacuous meagerness trans mitted from chAngeless surroundings intt the natures and faces of all human stand stills and stay -at-homes.

Fur is made up in connection with cloth for coats in striking manner by utilizing the fur in corselet fashion, the sleeves, collar and skirts of the coat being all of the velvet.
