 Be careful of the old shaft was Dicks oft repeated warning. Not much of mystery, certainly. had he simply said nothing at all, for no one would ever have thought of going near the place. It was dark and dismal enough, and not likely to invite inspection. It was Dicks ever recurring reference to danger that led, finally to the discovery of a skeleton at the 200-foot level. The skull was crushed, but that might have been done in falling so great a distance. The clothing had long since decayed and gone to dust, all except a pair of heavy shoes with round headed nails in the soles and heels.

CARMEN

Before a representative audience last evening Calve sang in Carmen, to the delight of everyone present. The opera was given in splendid detail, a good cast including besides Calve, Cam panari as Eseamillo Dufriche as Dan- cairo; M. Frau Naval as Don Jose, Mime. BauerIneister as F'rasquito and Mieaela enacted by Mime. Norelli. The chorus WIS well balanced and supported by a good sized orchestra, under the direction of Gustav Heinrichs. Car men" has made Calve famous, and Calve has, by her superb acting made Carmen" inadequate without her per- sonality. CaIve has sometimes been ac- cused of being indifferent, but certain ly last night she was the gayest spirit, and in most brilliant mood. Of course her voice is not as fresh as it was years ago, which is perfectly account able for, owing to her untiring energy. But she will always be captivating and a sascinator. even when she has no voice. In all of her solos she was ap- pTeciatively encored, and in turn for which she was exceedingly courteous. Campanari, who sang here last spring at the May festival, shared the honors of the evening with Calve. He is a good actor and possesses most won derful voice, typically dramatic. and burning with temperament. Nothing could be more thrilling that the way he sang the famous Toreador song. He was obliged to repeat it. The tenor MT Naval made his debut here last evening. He is over dramatic, if any thing, but his work was good, and he made good lover. His voice is ade- quate and of nice quality. Mime, No velli and Mime Bauermeister enacted the roles of Micaela and Frasquita re- spectively creditably and especially noteworthy was Mne Novelli's solo in the third act She has a. big voice. a good personality, and is charming actress.
 Of the most charm besides the solos referred to was the quintet in the sec ond act, and the audience demanded an encore.
 Indeed the opera, contrary to many skeptical minds, which scorn the thought of grand opera in any place outside the metropolis. was a delight. The next time that Calve in Carmen is here crowded house should greet her.

VARIOUS OBITUARY NOTES
MISS MARY GREGORY, DAUGH-
 TER OF ADMIRAL GREGORY.

4 Sketch of Her Life-FuneraI Services
 of Mrs. Catherine B. Judge--FuneraI
 of Eliza Turner-Other Notes.
 The news of the death of Miss Mary Gregory, daughter of Admiral Francis Gregory, which occurred Thursday night at the New Haven hospital, is received with general sorrow. For two or three weeks past Miss Gregory had been fail- ing rapidly and the end was not un- expected by her intimate friends. She was a sister of Mrs. Charles R. Inger- soil, whose husband was formerly gov ernor of Connecticut.
 Although a resident of New Haven for the greater part of her lifetime, Miss Gregory's circle of friends was comparatively limited, her retiring dis position and intense love of literature and study overcoming all inducements to mingle in society. With children and animals, however, her acquaintance was almost unlimited, her love for the little ones and for dumb brutes of all kinds being one of her most notable charac- teristics. On all her walks she was well comed and attended by hosts of chil- |dren, who fiocked about her, and nearly |all O. whom she knew by name. So, too, dogs appeared instinctively to rec ognize her as a friend, and accompanied her on her rambles through the city. Equally strong was her love of read ing, her range being unrestricted, and embracing, particularly, technical works and books relating to the most profound and difficult sciences. She had no es- pecial hobby but eagerly devoured all that was worth reading under the vart- ous heads from fiction to psychology, Miss Gregory was woman of unusual mental attainments and let no oppor- tunity escape in developing her mind to the utmost.
 In addition to her sister, Mrs. Inger- Isoll, Miss Gregory leaves "a nephew and two nieces, Frederick Ingersoll of Rye, N. Y, who married Miss Trow- bridge of this city; Mrs. George Haven, wife of prominent New York banker, and Mrs. Henry Cause of Wilmington, Del, whose husband is prominent in financial circles in the south.

To Work Is Honorable.

, There has existed and still exists to
some extent false sentiment that la
Dor is degrading or belittling. The con-
trary Is true. An ideal condition of So
ciety can come only when every mem
Der Of it recognizes that he is bound to
exrcise whatever skill or strength or
faculty he possesses to its full capac-
ity not seltishly or for the sake of gain
merely, but for his own happiness and
development and for the benefit Of all.
And there should be no restriction on
any one, either legal or social Or
through associa ton, in regard to his
labor or it's fruits. If by patient appli-
cation or natural endowment man
possesses more skill than his fellow Or
If he chooses to be more Industrious he
is entitled to the full benefit of it.

Mistakes In Stamps.

By simple error in the printing of a
set Of stamps the value is enormously
increased to collectors. A short time
ago Dutch stamp was printed yellow
instead sof blue. A week later these
stamps were sold. at a great premium
A New Zealand stamp some years ago
was printed upside down, and it is now
worth a large sum. Among English
stamps the old red penny, with the
plate No. 255, is valued by collectors,
and the small pink halfpenny, with
plate No. 8, is not worth less than $2O
1t is said that the plate of the latter
was broken soon after it came into use
and was never replaced; hence sthe
value of the few stamps printed from
it. It is always a question with anna
teurs whether to buy their stamps used
or unused. But it is safe on a great
occasion, such as a Jubilee or exposi-
ton year, to buy them with the post
mark. -. Fl ~>g..,...55t3., ~

It is q well known fact that pure wa

transparent. In large masses it is dis
t!nctly blue. Snow is simply the crys-
tails Of pure water. The reflection from
these Is that Of all the colors Of the

fore they reach the eye cause snow to
appear to be white. But" you will
say, ''the single crystal also appears to
be white. This is true beyond ques-
ton, the reason being that that which
appears to be a single crystal is in
reality multitude Of microscopic
threads, prisms, lines and dots.
In spite of their apparent great di-
versity in form and shape, which may
vary from hairlike crystals to perfect
stars of beautiful, delicate and intri-
cate designs, they may be said to be
absolutely uniform in original delinea-
ton, that of the hexagonal prism The
primitive form is that Of a straight
needle Of ice, radiating from q central
nucleus, always at symmetrical dis

rule are the little disks which occasion
ally fall. These on close examination
proved to be six sided planes, the angle
still being l2O degrees. NJ 4. n
