THE BLACK CROOK" AGAIN.
| Demurrer of the "Black Crook Up to
Date" Company Sustained.

Demurrer of the "BIack Crook Up to
Date" Company Sustained.
The suit of the "Black Crook vs. the
"Black Crook Up to Date" was again in
the United States Circuit Court yesterday.
The plaintiff was confronted by the de-
cision of Judge Deadly in the case of the
"Black Crook" VS.. the "Black Rock" but
Attorney Chretien offered the original
manuscript of the play. and produced a
brother of the author to prove its genuine
ness. Judge McKenna sustained the de-
murrer interposed by Attorney Hutton,
however, and gave Leonard Grover ten
days in which to amend his complaint.
In speaking about the play H. d.
Barras, brother of the author, said the
"Black Crook was first produced in New
York in 1866 a burlesque On it called the
.tBlack Rock" was written and produced
at the Metropolitan Theater by the Mar
tinettis. At that time John Mcguire at
tempted to secure the California rights to
the '"Black Crook" and, failing in that,

ornamented in keeping with the style OF
architecture, and it is surmounted by a
heavy transom, rich in ornamentation.
On the panel of the door to the right the
central figure is vase for the ashes of the
dead and above and around it are the
laurels of glory, and the palms OF peace:
two torches reversed through wreaths OF
immortelles.
In the interior of the tomb are ten re-
ceptacles, four on each side, one above the
other, and two side by side, just opposite
the entrance. In one of the latter the re-
mains of Captain Kohl have been laid, and
the other one is reserved for the partner of
his joys and sorrows on earth. The slabs
covering the receptacles are marble, and
the panels inside the tomb are of polished
granite.

Howard: also to the bad condition of side
walks on that street. The pavement was
cut up in many places and crumbled under
the weight of passing vehicles.
This pavement has been attended to, the
ruts filled in and the street made smooth
all of which has done much to remove the
appearance of neglect which characterized
that thoroughfare.
A sidewalk on the west side of the street
near Stevenson, which had been below
grade for many months, has been filed
with concrete and in few days will be
ready for the public use. There are still
other places that need attention, and now
that start has been made, probably the
desire to make improvements will spread.

An Impending Nuisance.

The Indiana Legislature has set the
ball in motion. In the House of Rep
resentatives on Tuesday a resolution
was adopted ..condemning every
phrase of the policy of President Cleve-
land with relation to the little Repub-
lie of Hawaii" In addition to that
the resolution demands 1.-The keeping
of an American man-of-war in Hawaii
an waters for the protection of Amer
ican citizens and American interests. -
1t doesn't even stop there. 1t recon-
mends the "return to the policy of the
Harrison administration. looking to
the annexation of the islands to the
United States at the earliest possible
day."
If this thing were to emu with Indi-
ana. it wouldn't be so bad. A suffering
public might contemplate with some
measure of Indifference the ''baying of
the moon" by the Hoosier statesmen.
But there are reasons to apprehend
that this is only the opening of the
floodgates, and that the Legislatures of
Michigan and Wisconsin. and Minneso-
ta, and Illinois and various othes States
of which the members of the Legisla-
ture are in need of rudimentary in
structions in current affairs will follow
in the same line, until the newspapers
are made sluiceways for conveying
evidences of their lido ~ to the public.
If some of these jingo statesmen
would give a good reason for '.keep-
ing a man-of-war in Hawaiian waters. "
the sort of rubbish which the Indiana
Legislature INDUCED in the other day
might be tolerated. The distinguished
statesmen who represent Maine in Con-
press have ssmethod in their madness. "
Ex-Minister Stevens, no doubt, pro-
missed them some corner lots in the
deal by which he was to get big slice
of the capital city of Hawaii, but those
Indiana fellows get nothing. unless
they think that there is advantage in
boosting the Harrison boom for the
Presidency, and trusting to chances for
nsufruct.
There was disturbance in Honolulu
on the 9th instant. But no American
citizen was disturbed in person or prop
erty in consequence. The so-callec
Republicans were not injured by the
absence of an American man-of-war,
for the President of the Republic ex-
pressed to the American Minister his
qualification at the absence of war
ship. 1t appears therefore, that the

LADY, OR woMANY


One of the most interesting page of
the Ladies' Home Journal for this
month, Is that given to a discussion
of the question Of the use of the
terms lady" and woman" It is a
question p%erplexing to all of us, for
1t is very difficult to discriminate in
the use of the two words, so nearly
synonymous without sometimes feel
ing that we have misused a word and
perhaps injured some ones feelings.
Mrs. Deland lays down two good
rules which we can safely follow, al
though we must sometimes make ex-
ceptions, as to all general rules.
First, a woman when referred to in
connection with her occupation in life,
should be spoken of ar a For
instance, lit is preferable to say sales
woman, washerwoman, and medical
woman, rather than saleslady, washer
lady, and medical lady.
Second, custom has suggested that
When we would refer to such persons
not in reference to their occupations,
we would, for the sake of courtesy,
speak Of them as ladies'"
The number of exceptions to the
rules is considerably lessened If we
include also the definition that a lady
Is a woman plus education, refinement,
dignity, and culture.
But, after all, In these days when
ladies" are so common, we can be
most complimentary If we use the
term woman" provided it be given
in the proper tone and in well chosen
language.
We ar reminded that there can be no
phrase expressing greater appreciation
than THAT used in speaking of a per-
SON as a fine woman" while It might
be "a very doubtful compliment if we
were Ito say fine lady"
l have always liked the expression
OF a friend who said that "a lady is
n who is not ashamed to be called a
woman"
Mrs. Deland's rules and definitions
are the best general guides to the cor
rect use of the two words I have ever
seen, and they will certainly be read
with great pleasure, yet the necessity
OF exercising u judgment ait all
times If we would avoid offending
those to whom we speak.
For my part, my Judgment will in
cline me to say woman whenever it
is possible in preference to lady"

WANTS COMMITTEE TO TALK.

Editor Astorian:-
From your editorial this morning
1t appears that matters pertaining to
The railroad are at last taking shape.
And your suggestion to rouse up and
get enthusiastic 1 heartily endorse.
But in order to start this enthusing,
would 1t not be we'll for the subsidy
committee to let the public, ard espe-
cially the subscribers, know what has
been done, what is doing, and what
is proposed to be done?
There is a great deal of distrust and
Shaking of heads when anyone talks
railroad. and the croaker is abroad
with his usual: II told you So"
The silence on the part OF the COM
mfttee, the seemingly mysterious, and
the ''donIt-tell-anybody-way" Which
has NhAuherto enveloped all railroad
promotions in the past, ought to be
dropped, and an open, public state
ment made, to satisfy, not only the
subscribers, but THE public at large.
and silence the croakers for good and
ever.
A newspaper editorial is good, but
is lacking In that authority which the
committee alone can give.
