Breeding Cobras For a Bounty.

The government offers sixpence head
for every poisonous snake killed in India.
know of some places, says an English cor
respondent, where natives went into the
business of breeding cobras for the purpose
of getting this bounty and made a good
business out of it. In lower Bengal, where
snakes are held to be sacred, you find them
in profusion, for it is considered sacrilege to
kill them. l remember a house in which
resided in that district in which it was usual
to kill one or two cobras day.

FOREIGN complications that result in
drawn battle and bloodshed are of course
t. be regretted. The American people de-
sire most of all else to be ut peace with all
the world. but there are points which can
not he overlooked even if 1t results in war.
Americans in Rio Janeiro must be pro-
t, cted in their business. Life and prop
erty are as much under the protection of
our government there as in New York or
Honolulu And so if Admiral De CANA
continues to allow lighters taking oft mcr-
chan,lize to American merchants to be
fired upon he will be rightly punished.
Admiral Benham's course has been the
right on, to pursue. If the Brazilian in
surgrnts are not content with the whip
ping they are sure to get from the troops
of the president of Brazil, he can do no
better than to run counter to the wishes of
our government De CANA has no stand
ing among the nations of the earth. None
of them as yet have even recognized his
forces ~ brlIGerents. though our ancient
enemy, England would like to do 81. If
d, passage ut arms does occur it will be the
Last ,f De CANA.

John Drew has returned to us with a
new play by Henry Guy Carleton called
Butterflies" 1t had been given with a
moderate degree of success in Boston and
has won fair degree of favor here. Struc-
turally considered, the play is better one
than Nat c. Goodwin's "A Gilded Fool"
by the same author, and it is of much
higher order than The Masked Ball"
Cares French farcical comedy, in which
Mr.. Drew made his stellar debut. Although
it is lacking in some of the essentials of
high comedy, it is a bright and jaunty eX-
position of character and incident. Mr.
Drew S fine talents and his years of excel
lent training in Days company peculiarly
fit him for an exponent of this style of com

raise doubts of the passage of the bill, but
Mr. Wilson has been calmly confident from
the day the bill was reported from the

that his confidence was built upon firm

to congress on tariff reform issue would
not allow themselves to be stampeded by
manufactured sentiment against tariff re-
form. If the democratic senators will dc
as we'll as the democrats in the house have
done tariff reform will soon be here, but

Walker Whiteside, and although he is q
Chicago man he has not acted here since
his professional debut 10 years ago, when
he was billed as 1.-The boy tragedian."
Young Whiteside certainly made a pro-
found impression by his conception of the
melancholy Dane, and certain of our critics
have predicted that he is the coming Amer
lean tragedian; that the mantle of Booth
and Barrett will be wOrthily worn by him.
After carefully listening to his impersona-
tions of Richelieu and Othello, find my
self less enthusiastic as to his future. He
is certainly a conscientious and earnest &C
tor, who has devoted years to the study of
his favOrite characters. While he may cor

CHICAGO, Jan. 91.-Ths burg keeps up
it's reputation as the fin de steele town of
the universe. Tell me if you can what
other city, European or American, is able
to boast of two genuine and bona fide"
Patti fNrewellS in single week. My
friend, Marcus Mayer, who is the adorable
diva's manager this season, is gentleman
who evidently knows his business He had
booked the great song bird for positively
two concerts only" at the Auditorium, an
evening and a Saturday matinee, the latter
announced the last time Patti would
ever be heard in Chicago. The stress upon
this announcement led our public to believe
that at last Patti was to say FAREWELL for
good Every body Knows the result Such
an audience was never before assem- bled in
the Auditorium, which seats, boxes includ-
ed, 1850 persons, and can comfortably ac-
commodate perhaps 600 more by utilizing
the standing room in the foyer. An idea
may be had of the crush from the state
ment from the box office report that the
crowd numbered 6,S17 persons At a mod
est calculation there We're 1000 persons,
mostly ladies, turned away from the doors
unable to obtain admission.
The sight in front of the big opera house
was an impressive one, and inside the ro-
tunda it was unparalleled. l have been in
large department stores on "bargain" days
and have come away lame and bruised from
contact with elbows of the "gentler' sex,
but l wouldn't have braved the feminine
maelstrom that seethed and swirled before
the Auditorium doors that afternoon for
one of PATHS brightest diamonds. Richly
dressed and eXQuisitely bejeweled women
pushed and crowded each other and fairly
fought their way inside. A Yale Harvard
football game would have seemed tame in
comparison. The police were poweress
and looked helplessly upon the scenes Of
carnage. Handsome costumes We're torn to
tatters, and costly laces We're rent from their
fastenings and trampled underfoot. More
than 30 delicate women were overcome and
were carried fainting to their carriages and
taken home. 1t was finally found neces-
sary to stop the sale of seats, and at 3
o'clock the doors were closed. 1t was said
that fully 200 ticket holders who We're en-
titled to reserved seats We're unable to OBJ
tain admission, and number of lawsuits
are threatened against the redoubtable i'm
presario.
For this single concert the receipts were
a trifie under $l1 600 Can anybody blame
Patti for feeling a strong desire to say
''goodby' again? | think her very wise
old lady, and the fact that the sale of seats
for her last farewell" on Monday evening,
Jan. 20, almost cQualed that of the matinee
proved that her faith in dear Chicago
was not misplaced.
