 OIo" by inc Andrews Company.

 Chorus of Carbines-s, Peasants, Rob- bers, etc.
 Auber's Era DiavolO' has not the charm of Flotow's opera Of Martha, 9 yet there is much to enjoy in the com position of the French composer. It is not pretentiOus and the demands upon the singers are not heavy. When written it was termed light opera, but in these later days the title has changed to comic opera. There is q good deal of horse play in Fra Dia- volo," but notwithstanding that the performance of last night was thor oughly enjoyed by the large audience present The real Fra Diavolo" Brother DeviD met no such tragic death as is shown in the opera. Fra DiavOlO,' the Italian, whose career afforded the text for the opera, was a noted bandit whose real name was Michele Pezza, and who was ignomin- iCusly hanged at Naples in 1806.
 Miss Ada Palmer Walker appeared n the cast last night, but her voice showed the effects of her recent iIl- ness, she being still hCarse. There is little worthy of mention In any of the soprano parts, but that little was well done. MT. Seaton as Fra DiavoIo had splendid Opportunity to display his excellent baritone voice and well did he take advantage Of it He makes a most robust aQd forceful character of the famous bandit and his singing w2s above tho average Lyn ParmIy as Lorenzo was fair. MT. Taylor, whose singing in Martha" Thursday night made such a hit, had the small part of Berpo. As a comedian MT. Taylcr is more of a success than one would have believed and his burlesque of Ger linda was more than clever, receiv- ing three well merited encores. Hubert Sinclair as Giacomo was a good second to Mir. Taylor. The chorus repeated it's success of the night before, being especially good.
 The company could improve the prayer scene by remembering that in all Catholic countries every one blesses himself and makes the sign Of

TWO BURGLARIES.
4 Professional Safe Breaker made
 quately Rewarded.

The stores of the BarkleY Bros Mer-
 cantile company and w. A. Watts &
 Co. were burglariZed on Thursday night. Both jobs were neatly and pro- fessiOnally done. but as often happens ill this world skill and painstaking care do not meet with commensurate reward. In fact, in this case the burg lar had no reward at all except the consciousness of having done his work thoroughly Failure was not his fault
 Barkley Bros. store was entered first The burglar was after cash only and he attacked the safe. Only the day combination was on, so that the outer dCcT5 were easily opened A hole was bored through the inner door to the lock. The lock was knocked off and the contents of the safe lay at the mercy of the night man. They con sisted of the books of the firm, a bunch of keys and a dime. It is a business tenet of the firm never to keep money i14 the safe. That's what banks are for The burglar left the dime, but he took the keys of which all hut two were found scattered about the building The burglar had let himself into the store with a key and he locked the door after him when he went out He got into the store of w. A Watts & O. through a WlndOW. lie must nave Ie1E hUrriedly and in alarm, for his tools a brace, some pitts, a hammer and 3 kind of chisel were found on top of the safe. A hole had been bored through half way into the lock of the safe
 It was discovered later that the blacksmith shop of Frank Moss had also been burglarized and it was here that the brace was procured. The owner of the ether tools has not yet been found.
 The day before the burglary one of the travelling men of Barkley Bros. re- turned from the northern part of the territory with a large sum of money. This circumstance, together with the ether one that the burglar was able to let Himself into the store, gives rise to the suspicion that Ghe crime was planned. The attack on the Watts & Co. safe may have been an after thought made in fit of indigna- ton and disappointment

Yankton. s. D., Feb. 24.-'rhe cor oner's jury on the investigation of Sundays fire at the asylum for the in sane brought in a verdict today, in which they fail to find any person re- sponsible for the death or the seven teen female patients who lost their lives in the disaster
 The verdict states that the building was erected fer laundry. and was used to house patients only because Of the OveTcrowded condition of the other structures; also that, owing to insuf- fcient salary appropriations by the legislature no nightwatchman had been employed cn the hospital grounds for the last four years.

TWO APPOINTMENTS.
R l.. Long for Superintendent of Pub
 lie Instruction.

Governor Murphy yesterday sent the name of F. L. Long to the council as territorial superintendent of public instruction, and that ,cf pr. E. N M0lleT of Yuma as territorial prison physician. The latter nomination was made on the recommendation of Coun- cilman Carpenter and Assemblyman DOan of Yuma county.
 The nomination Of Mir. Long was made on account of his extended ac- qu2intance with the educational af- fairs of the territory. It is not gen. eral1y known, but it is fact, that MT. Long is the author of the present school law of the territory. He drafted a bill which was passed by the Thir- teenth legislature Though it has since been slightly amended it has never been essentially changed
 MT Long held the office of superin- tendent Of public instruction in 1884 and 1885, At that time the office was elective or was construed to be, though it was afteTwaTd admitted that the appointment of the superintendent was one of the prerogatives Of the gov ernor In 1888 and 1889-90 he was principal of the territorial normal school, which position he resigned in the last named year to accept the p-in- of the Phoenix schools.
 His connection with the educational affairs of tho territory covered a period Of fifteen years. Since 1891 he has been engaged in the abstract bIsi- ness in Phoenix and has held the office of clerk for Arizona of the court of private land claims since the organi- zatiOn of that court.
