ANOTHER RAILROAD RUMOR.
Report Concerning the New England's
 Entrance Into New York.

Report Concerning the New England's
 Entrance Into New York.
 It Was rumorcd in New York yesterday that the New England road. under Nc Leod had positively reached an arrange ment by which it will secure its long GOV eted and long fought for entrance into New York city, thereby giving full competi- uon over a shorter route than the New York, New Haven X Hartford railroad It was said that Mcleod had enlisted Gould and Sage in his behalf, and had completely outgeneraled the Consolidated officials. who have been working for years to bottle up the New England. Mcleod claims to now have route that cannot be inter fered with in the courts or in any other way.
 The scheme as is outlined is to the effect that Mcleod has secured the right of the proposed Richfeld & New York road, an air line from Danbury to Portchester. and the proposed New York city and West chester road to the Bronx river Most of the route has been graded already and the charters have three years to run. Then they will meet the Second avenue elevated road, which will be extended to that point and the New England's terminals will be located somewhere down town, probably near Second avenue and Twenty-third street.

Work for Everyone

How can We find employment for the people who are compelled to live on short al lowancc? By extending water pipes on the new streets, that you contemplate laying water pipes when you get the new water supply. or replacing the old cement pipes with iron that you will be compelled to do next summer. This can be done without laying special tax. because the city has power to borrow half a million dollars to furnish the people with water.
 KELLY says to the Common Council. You can put every idle man in Waterbury working to-morrow, because you have the money and the work to do, and you will bring comfort to many firesides that have been wrecked by the present hard times"
 What KELLY has on hand to-day: 6. .995 Barrels of Flour, or enough to feed the town of Naugatuck for l2 months.

THE NEW DRAMATIC VENTURE.

1t is said that the Theater of Arts and
Letters in New York is failure. 1t made
some money and gave some notoriety to
lot OF indifferent people, but as an ad-
vance in dramatic art it has not been a
triumph. Why should anything else
have been expected OF it? No progress
is made by leaps. True art, like all
other growth, develops; it is not dragged
by the forelock. The Theater of Arts and
Letters was founded on the assumption
that what the practical theater rejects,
may win success if given a field in
which managerial criticism is elimin-
ated. Here were to be produced plays,
| the product of the alleged diletantte in
dramatic art-plays that other theaters
could not pay gas bills with, and by play
ers who spurned the path of experience
along which real artists chamber. These
were to be they who out of their con-
sciousness Of ability We're to step into the
front rank at one stride. For instance. a
young girl-a Californian, by the way
who made her debut on the first night,
/ stepped from the modeler's room to the
footlights, never having before essayed a
dramatic role. Because she is a sculptor,
ambitious, pretty and presumptious, she
was welcomed at the new theater. Her
success was equivocal; in truth, it was
the amateurish success. What must
such women as Julia Marlowe, Ellen
| Terry, Madam NIodjeska, Ada Rehan,
/ Mary Anderson. Clara Morris, Mrs.
! Bowers and a host of others who were
content to begin at the foot of the ladder
and carve their way, think-o a stage that
presents such debutantes to dispute for
laurels with excellenceS Their thought
must be that of the sensible theater-
goers, of sensible people generally, and
given visible form of expression it reads
mildly ''presumptious." Think of the
| splendid Edmund Kean, with all his
natural gifts. standing from monday
until midnight before a pier glass study
ing the shadings OF his own Lear, until
tired nature laid him PROSTATE on the
floor; think OF the great Salvini, after all
4 his triumphs, declaring that honest, hard,
tireless work alone makes the actor, and
then think upon the effrontery of the
/ Phatons of the Theater of Arts and
! Letters. There is no true excellence
without labor; it is as true of the
drama as of all things else. The Theater
of Arts and Letters may be likened to the
scheme Of a publisher who would under
take to print and put upon the market
the rejected Ms. of all other publishers.
The reading world for him would speed
lily dwindle to the few who were the
authors of the rejected manuscript. That
the stage may advance to a greatly
higher plane and rid itself of the vulgar
and the weak is the hope of all true low
ers of dramatic art, but spasms like the
experiment in New York are not going
to help the stage on and up.

EDGAR MILLS.

In the death of Edgar Mills, President
of the National Bank OF d. 0. Mills d
Co., of this city, the State loses one of the
early pioneers of California and one Of
its first business men. a sketch of his life
will be found in our local columns. He was
man who was of most kindly disposition,
of careful business habits and upright con-
duct. He mingled but very little in DO
litical life, his tastes inclining him to
business and to engagement in enter
prises of a progressive character, de-
manding large executive ability and fine
business talent. Mr.. Mills had wide
circle of friends, and his loss will be
keenly felt by the old pioneers with
whom ne stood shoulder to shoulder in
the early days, and by the wide business
and social circles that have SO long known
him and felt his influence.

Thus far not the slightest showing has
been made that President Carnot was in
volved in the Panama Canal corruption
matter. But the enemies of the French
Republic will leave no device unused to
blacken Carnot, in the hope that if his
name is smirched the Republic will fall
with his retiracy. That France is in a
perilous situation is certain, and the fact
that the italian ambassador has so Off

tracts for Indian supplies are now so
rigidly supervised that the scandals for
merly attaching to them have well nigh
disappeared
All these things have been in part the
result of the education of younger In
dians, the investment of older ones with
citizenship and the policy Of holding
them to accountability to the laws equally
with white men; in part the result of the
new land distribution system, under liza
bliity of forfeiture if the opportunities
offered are not availed of, and in part of
the efforts of an association not much
heard of, but one that has for twenty
years steadily labored, under the title of
''The Indians Rights Association" for
the recognition of the Indian as man
capable of training in civilized ways.
This association has been radical, largely
promoted by extremists, good deal in
fuenced by mere sentimentalists; but,
nevertheless, its influence has been felt,
and its persistent presentation of the cause
of the Indian has operated as did the
work of the old abolition societies to the
attainment of the abolition of slavery.
1t is gratifying to all true men that we
are so near at last to the complete re-
moval Of the reproach that has so long
attached to the American Nation for its
treatment of ats Indian tribes. We are
at last able to say to the world that we are
dealing with the red men honestly and as
great nation should.

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $1O
to $40 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company has ro-
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres OF
Iand in the heart Of Tehama County, for the
purpose OF promoting subdivision and settle
ment. This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land to
land of fair average quality, and is offered at
from $40 to $40 per acre, in subdivisions of
40, so, 120, 100 and SEQ acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive. They viii be sold In
subdivisions, as above indicated, by the pay
ment Of interest only for three years at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment OF
principal by paying the first OF five equal an
nual installments. Thus no part Of the prin-
cipal is tc be paid for three years, and then
the purchaser is to have five years in which to
pay five equal annual iRstallments, with in
terest at the rate of per cent. per annum,
making payments extending over period Of
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an opportunity to purchase
land OF fair average quality at $40 per acre,
and good agricultural land at $40 an ac-@.
with other grades of land at prices to CORE
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming, and es-
pecially adapted for fruitgrowing, cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
300 an acre. An examination of the land
subject of this advertisement will prove to
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $40
an acre, and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land at $40 an acre, on terms of
payment which should make the disposition
of these lands to actual settlers result easy OF
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase of this
body of land was the breaking up of . large
holding for the plrpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.
