 To Supply the Government with Large Number of Arms.
 Washington. Dec. 14.-A large order for Colt 3S-calibre revolver has just been approved by the secretary of the treasury for his department. It has been decided to do away with the old revolver which has been fin use for watchmen and guards of the treasury department for.more than twenty years, and to adopt the more modern revolver Of the Hartford concern. The depar- ment officials speak of it as superior weapon and less clumsy that the old one. The new plan contemplates not only to equip the watchmen with the Colt revolver. but also the employees of the revenue service, thus making this order one of the largest ever placed by any department in the government. These arms are scattered all over the country. F. c. Nichols and l.. c.

MoRTALITY FROM ALCOHOL.

It is remarked that even in countries where alcoholism is denounced, the mortality from it, as given by statis- tics, is low. apparently because the cause of death is not exactly declared. Professor Mahairl, of the University of Lausanne, drew attention to the matter in congress of Brussels, and proposed a method of certifying the canse of death, which would give exact statistics, while respecting private feelings. In Swift zerland it is already done by certificates bearing numbers, and to identify the person corresponding to the number re- quires a long research. The plan has been in use fifteen years in the towns, and two years in the country, and giv- en satisfaction. It appears that one half per cent. of the deaths (male sub jects over twenty years) are caused by delirium tremens. Alcoholism alone, acute or chronic, is the cause of five per cent, of the deaths.-London Globe.

, Grnna Opera rIanse.

The scene of the recent great miners struggle in Pennsylvania has furnished to number of writers of successful plays sufficient material for the con- struction of plays of great interest and principal among these is that one writ ten by Theodore Krener, the we'll known author of many stirring stories Of the coal regions, which is entitled s.No Wedding Bells for Her This strong glnelodrama full of life and pathos, of love and hatred, of villainy and leroisn, was presented at the Grand opera house last night for the first time in this city. It was the open ing of a three night engagement of Forester & Mittenthals company, which has met with splendid success in other cities and received encomiums from both press and public wherever presented. Z
 The company is well balanced and several among them are possessed of of considerable ability. Last night night they were generously received by the large audience and their work was highly satisfactory. This was especial- ly so of the ubiquitous young lad, Master Willie Fink, who as Paddy Sullivan, enacted the role of the noble young hero and by his bravery and dar- ing won enthusiastic plaudits from all.
 The rest of the company was in keep ing.
 The scenes of the play, which is in four acts, are located in and about Wilkesbarre, Pa., and most of the char ,4n.-s Ia1 .-,s4t the coal industry. The name is derived from an incident in the life of Nellie Wilbur, who is betrothed to one John Anderson and is about to be made a happy bride, when through the treach- cry of the villain, her fiancee is torn from her by the false reports, to the eff feet that he has been implicated in the
 assault on a virtuous young woman, and she in consequence is not wed,
 even though the wedding bells were
 pealing out joyfully. By a series of thrilling scenes and climaxes the truth is finally siften out, the guilty punish
 ed, the wrongs righted and the girl hap oily wed and all made happy.

noticed that during the long run of Dante at the Drury Lane theater in London, that those who attended the performance were often led to the study of the real Dante, just the same as my production of Faust at the Lyceum theater revived an interest in Goethe's immortal work. This was clearly shown by the many thousand copies of the original work that were sold while the plays were running. Naturally, I think that it is an educational accomplish ment to induce people who otherwise would not read them, to take an inter- est in Faust and the Divine Comedy
