St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1893-11-09

This opera has been running in the
Columbia Theatre, Boston, for the
last three weeks, and this week there
has not been a vacant seat in the
house. There are 65 artists in the
company and they have been secured
for ST. Johnsbury while on their way
to Montreal. The libretto is cleverly
written and is full of humorous pas
sages which can scarcely fail to catch
the fancy of an audience. Mr.. Furst's
music is unquestionably the best he
has thus composed, and the piece
as a whole. has achieved distinct
success. Miss Hall takes the part of
Amadee and as the plot develops
her part becomes more and more
prominent. Richard Golden gives
her excellent support all through the
play, and in the character of Rewski
finds an excellent chance to display
his quaint and original methods.
The stage settings and costumes are
very elaborate. The management
have wisely decided to sell the tickets
at a low figure, and the highest
priced seats are only 81 100, while ex-
cellent seats are offered at rs and
so cents. The tickets will be on sale
at Bingham's and Bagley's drug
stores after this morning. "The
Honeymooners" ought to fill the
house next Tuesday night.

NOT CONFIRMED.
Arthur G. Randall not Confirmed by the
Senate for Postmaster.--Major Bow
man In the Field with Good Chances
for Success

man In the Field with Good Chances
for Success.
The entire town was stirred up
Saturday afternoon by the an
nouncement in the Boston Herald
that the nomination of Arthur c.
Randall for postmaster was not con-
frmed by the senate. At first it was
supposed that his name had not
been considered, but very soon after
the Herald's announcement word
came here that his nomination was
brought up in the committee and
that evidence was presented of such
serious nature as to make it al
most certain that he will never be
confirmed.
AS soon as it became known that
Mr.. Randall was out of considera-
ton there was almost unanimous
wish that Major N. P. Bowman be
given the Office. The suggestion
came to MIR. Bowman as complete
surprise and he would not consent
to enter the field until he had seen
Mr.. Randall and told him that he
was going into it. Major Bow
mans petition was started Monday
morning and many of the democrats
and nearly all of the republicans have
signed his petition, recommending
that in case Mr. Randall was not
confirmed Major Bowman be made
postmaster. This is virtually ask
ing for the appointment of Major
Bowman, as the senate committee or
post Offices and Postmaster Genera
Bissell are perfectly conversant with
the facts in the case and refused to
recommend Mr.. Randall to tht
senate.
The failure Of Mr.. Randall to Sc
cure the coveted prize is a just re
buke to the methods taken to secur
Mr.. Sprague's removal last June
The CALIFORNIAN said then: 9TH
undue haste to secure Mr.. Sprague'
removal has created feeling of in
dignation which is not confined t.
the republicans, but is shared by
good many democrats who believ
in fair play on either side ** 1t
a species of star chamber tactics i
J which the local democrats playe
little part" As time went on thI
feeling was intensified and as til
facts have become known upo
what false charges Mr.. Sprague wa
. removed there are few citizens OF S
Johnsbury who regret that til
chickens have come home to roos
Major Bowman is one of the mos
, popular men in St. Johnsbury an
, would resume official duties wit
a host of friends here and elsewher
AS stated before, he had nothin
whatever to do with preventing M
Randall's confirmation and did ne
: know until Saturday night that il
: fluences were at work to prevent i
t Postmaster Randall was re-a
! pointed by President Clevelar
Tuesday and his name may aga
d come up for confirmation when Il
h senate meets in December. In an i
r terview in his official organ he e
pressed himself as absolutely certa
,. that he will be confirmed by the sc
" ate, and the same paper declares th
c Mr.. Randall is not worrying hims'
y over the matter. Mr.. Randall deni
l. emphatically the charges that we
. presented to Postmaster Gener
Bissell and the senate committee.

Baby's Venonous Cradle-Fellsw,

From the Philadelphia Times.l
LAKE CHARLES, La, Aug 4.-The
wife of a lumberman named William
son few days ago had a novel and
terrifying experience with a lattle-
snake. The Wi:liamsons live near here
in a small cabin on Lake Calcasieu.
Mrs. Williamson had left her six
months old baby asleep in its cradle,
near the open door, and was going
about her household business. when
she happened to approach the little bed
to look at her child, and to her horror
saw line OF mottled green and black
nestled close to the form Of the peace
fully sleeping little one. The ugly
bead was raised and resting on the
child's arm with its eyes keeping
drowsy watch over it.
The mother sank, nearly fainting,
on the floor, but with a parents
bravery realized that the snake must
be dislodged at any cost to herself, as
at the first or slightest movement OF
the babe the cruel fangs might be
buried in its flesh. It was necessary
also to act with speed, so arming her
self with a pistol belonging to her hus-
band, she bent over the cradle, and
with one rapid gesture laid hold Of the
snake by the end of its tail and as sud-
denly gave it jerk which landed it
on the floor. The creature made at
her with uplifted head, sounding its
dreadful rattle as it coiled close to her
feet. But, aiming steadily, she put
ball through its body, aDd although it
again tried to attack her, she fired
again and again, and succeeded in kill
ing it. AS it died it flung itself upon
her foot aud struck the shoe with its
fangs, but it was only the death agony,
and the blow served only to entangle
it in the tie of the shoe, to which it was
still clingipg when her husband reached
her, having heard the shots and ran to
her assistance.
