the company presented to large and

comedy, entitled "Chick," in which
little Mable was of course a central

the entire satisfaction of the audience.
TUESDAY EVENING
Bright Eyes" a three-act musical
comedy, was presented. The house was
full, and everyone went away delighted
with the performance. There were
many songs and dances, and Mabel
and Amy Paige i'll their new French
dance completely captured the large
audience. All of the performers were
literally applauded, and they richly
deserved all the praise given them.

MABEL PAIGE.

1t has been two years since there has
been an attraction at the Opera House
that gave such genuine satisfaction as
the Mable Paige Comedy Co. which is
playing here this week. Mable, the
child actress, is indeed a paragon in
her profession, and has reputation
all over the country for her admirable
acting, which is as easy and refined as
one would desire.

Gonyea Gets Into a Peck Of

Flour City News.

Police Officer Gonyea, Of the East side
station. whose resignation takes effect
tomorrow, had a very exciting time
about 10 o'clock Saturday evening, near
the corner of Adams and Spring streets.
The officer is not very popular with the
people in that vicinity, and when he
undertook to arrest eX-Ald. lrwin's boy
for some petty remark he had made,
great Indignation prevailed and "wlld
scene of excitement followed. The
officer was jumped upon by the eX-
alderman and a number of eye wit
neSses, and for few minutes it looked
as though some one might be laid to
FEST.
Gonyea was greatly excited, and drew
his revolver and placed it under the
nose of NJ. F. O'Brien, the "Potato
King" and had it not been Tor the
market-man's generalship there might
have been one more death for Commits
sioner Kelley to record.
The revolver was taken away from
the officer and turned over to another
policeman, who advised Gonyea to g
home, which he Immediately did. Had
the officer renamed on the beat for the
night, it is quite likely that he would
have been subjected to severe treat
ment. 1t is said that several of the
youths have made threats to teach the
officer a lesson in etiquette after he
retires from the force. Gonyea tele-
phoned to police headquarters asking
the officers in charge to send over the
patrol wagon and reserve squad"
They were not sent over.

the country has suffered during the last

..Neyer in the history of our country

all we lament the death OF James u.

arena with Gladstone and Bismarck.

gressiye. too brilliant, too progressive
to become president. With regard to the
unfortunate remark by DR.. Burchard.
there has been some mlSunderStand-
ing that | may be able to clear away.

liberatelv uttered the words in order TO
iniure his cause, but l am sure that ne

full half hour, and then l asked Dr..
Burchard to accept the duty. As the
ill-chosen words fell tremblingly from

have been the first to appreciate their

The mayor evidently does not intend
to allow any one to dictate what he
shall do. During the past few days
several ministers and church people
have sent petitions to him requesting
that skating contests on the Sab
bath at Normanna rink be stopped.
The mayor, as 1t is customary listened

together with the mayors private
secretary, Joseph ManniX. visited the
rink to witness the various contests
that had been advertised. Much TO the
surprise of the petitioners, the police
did not interfere, and the events passed
off as smoothly as Sunday school meet

were more than 1000 people present.
there was not enough noise made 10 al

The Affair at the British Legation,
Guatemala.

SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 29.-Jo Dias
Duran, consul of Guatemala, has written
a communication to morning paper
concerning the attack Oh the British
legation at Guatemala. and furnishes
the following version of the affair:
"From private correspondence, and
from an interview with gentleman
who recently arrived from Guatemala,
L have learned that the trouble has been
greatly exaggerated. and | therefore
take it upon myself to rectify the
matter. The trouble. as it is related,
happened in the following manner:
Thomas Wheeler. the British consul,
left Guatemala at the beginning of the
month. on his way to Salama to invest
igate the manner in which the min
ister's eldest son and another British
subject had been wounded at planta-
ton near San Jeronimo. While short
distance from Guatemala mule on
which he rode became unmanageable,
and he was thrown to the ground, the
animal falling over him. His ribs were
fractured, and one of them penetrated
one of his lungs. causing his death.
Several days after this fatal accident
the minister in person started for the
same location in order to investigate
how his son had been injured. During
that time one of the farmers at the plan
tation approached the minister's resi-
dence, and the latter fired upon him,
killing him instantly. The minister's
son had gone to San Jeronimo to enjoy
his vacation during the holidays, and
one evening, while lin the company of
friends, visited the residence of one OF
the farmers, who. without word OF
warning or reason, attacked him. On
being informed of this the British min
lister made Inquiries of his son. and the
latter telegraphed to him and explained
matters. at the same time requesting
him not to take any action on the matter
IN his official capacity"

CATHOLIC CHURCH UNITED
Sntolli Says Trivial Differences
Are Being Magnified.

New YORK. Jan. 90. The World
publishes an interview between Mgr.
Satolli and its Washington correspond
ent, in which the papal representative
is quoted as follows:
q among the Catholics in this country
there is the strongest devotion and
hearty cooperation. The church as
whole is united in its sympathies and its
aims. There is the utmost harmony be-
tween the clergy and the people.
Misinformation has many times mag
nitied. Trivial differences of opin-
ion appear to those outside the
church as a lack of harmony. The
Catholic church OF America was never
in a more healthy condition, or its pros
poets so bright. The influence of the
church is recognized as healthy. 1t is
a great moral force, and is indiSpens-
able to the States"
After a moments thought the mon
signor continued:
America is constantly receiving the
eyer-growing influence Of Immigrants.
a very large proportion of whom are
Catholics. TO keep together and pre-
serve unity among these various ele-
ments, there is required a superior
moral force, ever working among them,
and steadily, if silently. etfectlng their
assimilation, binding all in a common
feeling and interest. No stronger power
is at hand to effect this than the Catho-
lie church.
''It is the consciousness of this mis-
sion incumbent on the church that die
tates to Leo XIII. the policy he is out
lining for the Catholics of the United
States"
"Will your permanent residence be at
he univerSity?''
"My future plans are not fully ma
tured. l am waiting further instruc-
tions from the holy father. But the
university is most agreeable home for
me. l have felt the greatest interest
in it since | was here at its
Inauguration, and the latter years
of my life have been spent, as
you know, in the college DIT Rome. This
university has a magnificent future,
and will be brought up to the standard
of Oxford and Cambridge in their palm
lest days, when. with Paris, they led
the learning of the Christian world"

ADJUSTMENTS.

Charles L. Davis began a weeks en-
gagement at the BiJOu yesterday in his
so-called comedy drama, calvin Jos
lin." The theater was crowded at both
afternoon and evening performances.
The adventures of the old Yankee
farmer, as portrayed by Davis, were
applauded vigorously by the gallery.
The lower part of the house also ap-
plauded, but by no means bOisterously.
The play having been seen in this city
before it will not be necessary to detail
the peculiarities of the piece. Suffice
it to say that Davis plays the
part of Alvin JOslin with the
same vim which characterized his
previous performances in this city. This
vim is also noticeable in the other mem
bers of the company, and, taking it al
together, those who miss seeing the play
will mss one of the most unique per-
fOrmances witnessed by local theater-
goers since the engagement of Alden
Benedict some years ago.

THEY HOLD THE KEY.
Populists Able to Control Matters
at Cheyenne.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Jan. 29.-This has
been a busy day among the senatorial
aspirants. The New forces are work
ing hard to increase their vote tomorrow,
but with little success. The other
Democratic candidates are arranging
to unite upon one of their number ac
ceptable to the Populists and thus end
the struggle. The Republicans are dl-
vided equally between Warren and
Clark, with but little prospect of con-
citation. The Populists alone are
united and in position to solve the.queS-
ton at any time when it suits them, and
when the Democrats unite upon a
candidate acceptable to them. They do
not want New, as he is supposed to be
the Union Pacific candidate. They are
adverse to Beck and Baxter, both hav-
ing been in sympathy with the lnya-
sion. A selection of Corn or Holli-
day, who are in the field, OF of Thomp-
son or Beckwith, who are not avowed
candidates, would suit them. Several
ballots are expected to be taken tomor-
row.

other battle, so that even if he is de-
feated he will be able to retire on
fortune"
The pope" was asked as to his opin-
ION of the comparative merits OF Corbett,
Jackson and Goddard, and replied:
THAT is good deal of guess. Neither
Goddard nor Jackson is anxious to
tackle the other, that is sure; but either
one seems confident of defeating Cor
bett. Corbett talked very freel y with
me regarding matters that | do not
think he would desire to be
made public. but there is one thing GER
tain, he is the greatest boxer that ever
pulled on a glove and as game as they
make them. Regarding the visit of
Charley Mitchell to this country do
not think he and Corbett will ever meet
in the ring. Mitchell will go behind
Hall, and if he wins. will probably
go on a boxing tour through the
country. He Will be unable to raise the
side stake to bet on himself, and there
is no sure thing but jackson will guar
antee him a slice of the purse if he will
sidetrack and let Jackson have the first
chance at Corbett, as the latter has de-
clared publicly that he will fight Jack
son if Mitchell refuses to come to the
mark.
.'What did Corbett think Of the roast
ing that he has been getting from
Sheedy?"
He simply laughed and said that the
trouble with Sheedy and his followers
was that ne failed to throw his money
around among gamblers, saloonists.e ETC.,
but behaved himself. John Donaldson
is Corbetts sparring partner, and they
give the best setto | ever witnessed, and
ii is on the square, too. Corbett, aside
from his ability as a fighter, comes
nearer being a gentleman in every sense
of the word than a whole lot of counter
feits travelling under that name."

New YORK, Jan. 29.-J. E. Robinson,

that while he was mem

"The fame of James 6. Blaine is

'Richelieu' Robinson, who withstood an
avalanche of the most violent abuse and
misrepresentation in his successful eff

How the hepuDlIcahS SIaih TO
Have Elected Senator.
TOPEKA, Kan, Jan. 29.-The Repub-
Hcans claim that they elected United
States senator in the joint session of the
two houses last Wednesday. They claim
that none of the members of the Popu-
list house were legally sworn
in, and consequently had no
right to vote for senator;
that the senators. including the
.Populist members of that body, together
with the members of the Republican
house, constituted a quorum of votes or
a majority of the quorum, and that Ady
was before elected senator. Mr.. Ady
will be furnished with credentials
signed by Speaker Douglass, of the
Republican house, and by each
of the Republican senators, and will
proceed at once to Washington to claim
the seat now occupied by Senator Per-
kins. and to which the Populists claim
to have elected Judge John Martin,
Democrat. The Republicans expect
that the United States senate, having a
Republican majority. will give MIR. Ady
the seat.
