on Thursday, March 4th, The house will
doubtless be crowded with the most i'm

lights. In New York, where the Opera
ran for months, it was said by music
lovers, to be, without any possible excep.
ton or doubt, the most mertorious and
pleasing comic opera presented in this
country for several sea sons. 1t will be
produced here with all sumptuOu5 stage
settings which made the performance n
notable ono in the metropolis. Many
musical critics 60 so far as to say that it is
absolutely the best work that has come
Gr IN native composers. The opera is most
turc,hly striking for its beautiful melodies

which is exceptionally rare in works of its
class, "A real plot. Tho plot is founde! on
the romantic history Of Sir Walter Scott,

Z There may be a few Republicans In our
city who consider that the advantage arts;
ing mon, the defeat of J. Edward Addloks
will fully compensate for the election Of q
Democratic Governor, Democratic mem-
Der Of Congress. Democratic Legislature
and the election Of Democratic U. s.
Senator. There are many good Republi-
cans who disagree with them, and not a
few would like to hear the matter more
fully explained, so that they can under.
stand just what advantages have accrued
to the Republican party from the present
position of our political affairs. Tho OBJ
stacles which Mr.. Addicks has interposed
to Republican success have not been re-
moved by his defeat, but still exist and are
likely to exist for years to come. The
only way to get rid Of them Is to compro-
mise in some way by which the members
of the party can unite In voting for the
same candidates. Success Is impossible
without union, and the leaders Of the par.
ty may as we'll acquiesce in this conclusion
first as last. To defeat the party on ac-
unit Of one office, is like committing
suicide, because some one dares to ask for
al Office that properly belongs to another.
The Democrats are now congratulating
themselves over the differences in the Re-
publiean ranks and are ready to again di-
vide the offices in our city among them
selves at our next election. We hope bet
ter.counsels will yet prevail and all may see
their way clear to vote for their polite al
friends and not for those whom we class
as their enemies. The outrages committed
in the name of Democracy are so many
and glaring we should think any man who
desires to promote reform and prosperity
would need no other incentive to bury
their prejudices and vote for the benefit
of the public good,

Seen In the Stores.

Stockings are cheaper this spring than
for long time, and signs in shop windows
and over counters assure us that real Isle
thread hose may be had for % cents a
pair.
Bicycle boots occupy great deal of
season advances and the days get mild.
One of the new belts is of metal, which
has rather a crimped effect. 1t comes in
blue and green and is astonishing, rather
than pretty. Gold filigree belts, with min
iature buckles and those of red morocco
bid fair to be popular.
Etamine, thin cotton fabric in lacy
weayes and delicate shades will make
beautiful gowns this summer Its price
ranges from 12J to 80 cents yard.
Japan silks are back in favor and will
be hailed with delight by the middle-a aged
woman for a utility gown.
Linens are both prettier and cheaper this
year than last Pure linens with mar
row satin stripe of red, blue or old gold
running through them may be bought for
% cents a yard Made up over a eolored
lining, they will be very stylish.
The numerous devices on sale to keep
the insidious belt from climbing up over
the waistband leaves absolutely no excuse
for the shirtwaist girl to be untidy.
Some of the newest frocks for very small
damsels are of cream colored Holland
linen. made with the very long and full
pouf waist, separated from the skirt, which
is, of course, proportionately short, by a
band of insertion and finished with wide
haring sailor collar made of alternate stripes
of linen and insertion.
Scarlet and military effects will be the
rage among the juniors, as we'll as their
seniors. Some of the new spring jackets
are Of brilliant red cloth, braided across
the front with black soutache edged with
/ gold thread and fastened with oddlyshaped
smoked pearl buttons.
Baby bonnets are perfect marvels of the
millinery art; the close-ftting French cap
is entirely superseded by the high-crowned
Normandy cap, with Aaring ruffies, and
wide strings tied under the chin These
come in lawn and chiffon, in pinks, blues
and white, and are a decidedly picturesque
framing for a baby face.

1t is possible to prevent many diseases
and cure others by drinking large guam

says that typhoid fever can be washed out
of the system by water. He gives his pa

ounces an hour of sterilized water Hot
