All this occurred In Chicago.
Mr.. Pullman came TO New York, and
shortly afterward the prince followed.

make an appointment with him.
Mr.. Pullman was ut the Waldorf.
The prince was registered at the Cam

ON the appointed day the prince, &C

add to our wealth and population and
factors of commercial prosperity. One
installment of the hegira had already
been received without protest, but sud
denly. on the arrival of a second, the
commissioner general Of immigration
evolved from his consciousness the
hypothesis that diamond cutting was
no longer "a new industry and from
his official authority the resolve that
the diamond cutters just arrived must
be arrested and deported to Holland.
And. indeed, but for the Intervention
Of the Secretary of the Treasury, this
preposterous programme would have
consumated,
The bureau, finding the men could
not be held as contract laborers in the
sense contemplated by the law, next
set up the plea that the Hollanders
should be deported because otherwise
they might become a charge upon the
community, Notwithstanding that one
of them is a rich man worth more
than 100000 and every head of fam
lily in the company is independent
If the management of this bureau
is a sample of the management of the
others under the control of the Treas
ury Department, it is suggested that
it must take most of Mr.. Carlisle's
time correcting the plumbers OF his

THE EMOTIONAL MATINEE GIRL.

1t was thought that emotional hys-
terra had reached the height of its
manifestation when Paderewski last
played in New York and at the Worlds
Fair. when brainless women and girls
with disordered nerves swarmed upon
the stage. cried over him, begged for
locks of his hair, waylaid his carriage
and besieged him at his hotel; but
Chicago just now is witnessing a
somewhat similar nauseating and
ridiculous outbreak of Stiffness and
diseased nerves. The object of this
remarkable display is a Polish tenor
named Jean de Reszke, playing in
grand opera in the Auditorium in that
city.
1t appears that the other afternoon
the usual mob of fair lunatics who
went to worship at the handsome ten
or's shrine, were met with the an
nouncement posted in the theatre lob
by that owing to indispositiOn their
idols role would be sung by another
tenor.
The scene that followed is thus de
scribed by a Chicago paper:

Clasped her hands and called Jean

friends who We're with her tried to make
| things better by telling her that perhaps

/ moned and one Of the four comprising
the now mOurnful matinee party was
hastily wheeled from the scene.
Moved by the sight, there was clatter
of reticule clasps and handkerChietS were
called into play. Some were wrathy and
saw no reason why NJ. de ReSzke should
not have been in at night instead of in
! the afternoon. especially that afternoon.
IT remained for a figure clad in black and
| crowned with a widows bonnet made in
excellent taste TO put the most refined
touch of pathOs TO the scene. She did not
join In the general buzz that filed the
air. but taking out her handkerchief
while she read the notice put it 10 her
eyes and turned away weeping.
And, according to our contemporary,
the tide of emotional asininity that
swept over the Auditorium lobby ran
so high that it left all sorts of flotsam
and jetsam behind it. After the cur
tain had been rung down and the last
weeping woman had been turned out,
the lobby was found to be strewn with
flowers, wet and clammy handker-
chiefs, broken fans, opera glasses,
hair. parasols. gloves, feathers. eight
pair of garters(D, notes marshmal-
lows and chewing gum.
Is there no remedy for the emotional
matinee girl?

The setting aside Of the order of the
