The ODera,

Last night the Columbia Opera COM
pauy presented Balfes beautiful and
romantic opera 1.-THE Bohemian Girl"
to a large audience who braved the
storm rather than miss hearing the ex-
cellenS company.
The opera was stayed carefully and
the company, both principals and cho-
rus acquitted themselves most credit
able. AS Airline Miss Ethel Balch was
at her best and recited the encore for
Marble Halls.''
AS "Count Arnheim" Mr.. Hunting
ton sang we'll. but it looked as though
he might infuse more dramatic force
into his acting.
Jack" Henderson appeared in his
natural face and was at first iDcognito
to the audience.
The performance was greatly enjoy
ed, the familiar strains of this beauti-
full opera never seeming to pail on the
appetite of music lovers.
Today "Oivette'' will be given at
he matinee and that grand opera Fra
Diavolo'' tonight. This is said to be
the company's strongest production
and is adopted to all tastes in that it
contains plenty of comedy, beautiful
music and intensely dramatic situa-
tions. AS this will be the farewell
performance of the COlumbians, a
crowded house will undoubtedly greet
them.

Match 1t. Who Can.

The late Samuel Colt, we'll
known here, WAS one of the original
reanlzers of The MUTUAL LIFE IN
SURANCE Co., of New York. At the
time of his death he held policy No.
l35, which was originally written for
only $1,000. There were S., 700 90 divi-
dends added to this policy during his
lifetime, OF which he drew and used
during his life 81, 399. %, leaving a oal-
ance of So, ,301 in dividends which were
added to the policy and paid at his
death, his heirs thus receiving in cash
Sc, ,301, or more than double the amount
of the original policy. If Mr.. Colt had
used no dividends during his life his
estate would have received SO, 7OO.O9, or
nearly three times the amount of the
original Insurance. What other COM
psny can show such record? Mr.. Colt
drew out and spent in his lifetime divi-
dends amounting to four ffths of the
face of his policy, and bis heirs at his
death received 10 cash more than
double the amount of the face of bis
policy.

A Bank of England Trick.

WASHINGTON, Septambe Is The
chief financial officials are studying The
alleged proposal of the bank of Eng
land to encourage silver coinage. and
see nothing in it but a gigantic bluff,
through which, in devious ways, that
institution seeks to throw dust in the
eyes of certain countries still suffering
from the depreciation of the white
metal. 1t is declared by experts here
that the bank of England is going to
be and has to be very careful about
disturbing its credit. If it carries any
silver as part of its reserve, it will be
in the form of bullion bought at the
lowest market gold price, and not at it's
face value

MONTREAL, September 1S.-All is
quiet at ST Vincent de Paul prison to-

usual. Guards mounted on horseback
patrol outside of the walls. The sur

get tobacco again, but will not be pun

tobacco was given them the noise ceas-

is the reason mounted guards are pa
trolling outside of the walls.

why can't we have similar meetings
frequently? In Civics two questions
arose which we're not settled. Would
the two Presidential electors on the
Prohibition ticket, voted for at the
November election, have full power to
cast the electoral college vote of the
State provided the said two electors
had received all the votes cast at said
election. The Republicans had nine
electors, the Demo-Populist had nine;
the National Democrats had nine, but
the Prohibition had but two. 1t is
not probable that a vote could be had
similar to the query. Had the Prohi-
bition party the right to place nine
electors on it's ticket? If SO, was it
economy which led to the placing of
but two? The lesson in Civics and

BAD BREATH
Is What Woman breads More
Than peStilenCe or Famine.

And yet thousands of women are so
afflicted. In spite Of all they can do
this continues to grow worse, or at
least grows no better. Tooth brushes
and breath perfume seem Of no avail.
The reason Of their failure is, in the
majority of cases at least, they do not
know the cause of their trouble. Per-
haps the most frequent cause of un-
pleasant breath is catarrh. The in
fammation of the mucous membrane
of mouth and throat discolors the
teeth, coats the tongue, causes the
lips to become harsh and sore, and
imparts a more or less disagreeable
odor to the breath. Such condition
must be an extreme annoyance to the
women whose instincts are naturally
dainty, and she would do anything in
her power to overcome it.
To all such women, the word that
Pe-ru-na will absolutely cure catarrh,
will therefore be good news. Peru
ma, by removing the catarrh, sweetens
the breath and causes healthy secre-
tons to take the place of the irritating
ones which have been the cause of so
much discomfort. The teeth are east
ly cleaned and the effects of brisk
brushing remain, The tongue re-
sumes its natural color and the un-
healthy coating disappears. Catarrh
of the stomach also is often the cause
of foul breath. Pe-ru-na cures catarrh
wherever located.
A book of 81 instructively illustrat-
ed pages on catarrh, of which DR..
Hartman is the author. will be sent
free to any address for short time by
the Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing
Company, Columbus, Ohio.

BY AIKEN E. SCHMAHL.
THURSDAY, APRIL %, 1897.
new MEXICO.
Santa FEES Quaint Streets and
Mexican GreaSer Life.

s. T., LGnkGrd in Granite Tribune
After five months residence in this
ancient city I will attempt to give your
readers a few of my impressions con-
corning "the land of the Greaser."
Santa Fe is located in little valley
high up among the stately Rockies.
The altitude is about 1000 feet above
the level of the sea. The scenery
about the city is grand. Mountains
tower upward and pierce the sky in
all directions. Old Mount Badly, for
ty miles away to the northeast, raises
its snow capped peak away above its
fellows and stands like a grim senti-
mel at the head of number of small
valleys. One would think to look at
Badly on bright morning that it was
not more than two miles distant.
The old people of this place claim
that Santa Fe is the oldest town in the
United States. The records of the
Catholic church here claim 1888 as
the date of the city's foundation. I
assure you, dear reader, that you will
not question the accuracy of the above
if you ever visit this old town; you
will doubtless conclude that it has not
changed much since it's foundation.
We arrived here during the night
and could get no idea of the place or
its surroundings until the next day.
In the morning when I looked up at
the Brown mountain sides dotta here
and there with shrub pine and cedar
it seemed to me that a man was GER
tainly insane who would under
take to make home amid this barren
waste. After breakfast we sauntered
forth to see the quaint old city. The
first peculiarly that appeared to lis
was the narrow winding streets. The
principal street is only about forty
feet wide and in some places less.
Water street, one of the main thorough
fares, is about twenty feet wide with
out sidewalks. Men, women, children,
vehicles of all descriptions, and the
eyer-present burro jostle through this
street and the strongest keep in
the middle of the road" and the 9TH
ers keep wherever they can find room.
will here give short description of
the burro. He is degenerated spe-
cies of ass and about as large as a
yearling calf. A full grown burro
weighs about two hundred pounds
and mouse colored and the ears and
head are out of all proportion to the
body in point of size the head being
very large. The reason for the size of
the burro's head is not very apparent
when one considers the stupidity and
the general cussedness of the brute.
Nearly all the fuel for this city Is
packed to town upon the backs of
these stupid little creatures. One
