The Paris hoodlums, otherwise known as students and bohemians, again hissed Van Zandt at a performance at the Opera Comique. 8everal arrests were made. However as the house was ciowded to overflowing and no serious harm was done we don't see why Van Zandt should complain, especially as she lias shrewdly given out the impression that this persecution is owing to the faet that she is i'.ti American, which little ruse made a very good advertisement to precede her appearance in a country which sBe left when a baby and has not seen since.

Indiana democrats are becoming more and more disheartened at the prospect of being left out in the cold in the division of the spoils. Senator Voorhees is reported to have suggested to Secretary Lamar that the administration ought to consult a map to learn the fact that Indiana was still included in the Union, and a rash member of. .the state senate wants to pass a resolution withdrawing all Indiana applications for office under Cleveland. The bitterness of the disaf pointment is increased by the hope held out to them by Mr. Hendricks that there were 50,000 offices to be distributed immediately after the new administration came in. Indiana democrats will yet have to fall back on the $8 dividends...

The latest account of the way in which Hendricks captured one office is as fol lows: It was an appointment by the president upon the most earnest solicits tion by Mr. Hendricks at a recent interview. "Upon this appointment Mr. Hendricks asked the president: "Do you desire to humiliate me, Mr. President?" ''I do not," answered the president. "Then," said Mr. Hendricks, "you will appoint Mr. Jones postmaster of Indianapolis, because not to do so would be to me a humiliation." Following this in terview the president sent for Mr. Bynum, and after informing him how deeply interested Mr. Hendricks was in the appointment of Jones, requested Bynum to withdraw Creelman's name, promising him another office. And this is a great victory for the man who was put second on the ticket to carry Indiana?

TXBBE HATTTE, Ind., March 27. [Several months ago she was to appear in opera on an opening night in Paris When the time came for her to sing her first solo she walked to the front of the stage, but "was unable to utter a note. She was then hissed from the stage, many of the audience believing she was intoxicated. The Paris newspapers the following morning charged her with drunkenness. Many explanations were offered by her friends, the principal one being that certain enemies had drugged a glass of wine she had taken just before going in front of the audience. She went to St. Petersburg, where she met with a. grand ovation, and has now returned to Paris to sing down her disgrace. Public sentiment has changed much in her favor, but she still* meets with hisses from certain cliques that she says, are actuated in their malice by reason of her being an American.—

Courtesies to tbe Fx-Preeident.

This reached Mr. Arthur in due time, and he replied that, while the compliment was greatly appreciated, he preferred to go abroad, if at all, simply as a private citizen. The relations between the two men are of the most cordial character, as has been shown by numerous courtesies extended to each other since Mr. Cleveland's arrival here

Jalt-o Thompson

Cincinnati Commercial Gazette. There has seldom been a more infamous character in history than that of old Jake Thompson, in honor of whom the department of the interior was closed, and the on the pension office half-masted yesterday.

Concede the claim that he blundered in the enormous loss of trnst funds when he was in oharge of the department of the interior, and that he did not profit by the robbery with which his name is identified, and that he did not did Booth in his schemes, at last executed, to murder Lincoin, still Thompson was a scoundrel guilty of acts of baj^arism that would have disgraced a Congo chief.

He it was who wa» the supporter of the Sons of Liberty and other schemes for carrying war into the northern states. He furnished our copperhead conspirators money for purposes of treason, arson and murder, and sought to spread the yellow fever and small-pox through our cities, attempted to burn the city of New York and did pay for the'murderous burning of boats on the Mississippi, involving the loss of the lives of women and children, some of whom were of this city.

Jake Thompson wrote to Jeff Davis: "Money has been advanced to Mr. Chnrohill. of Cincinnati, to organize a corps for the purpose of incendiarism, in that city. I consider hiin a true man. As yet he has effected bnt little. I am in constant expectation of hearing of effective work in that quarter."-

See this Tilso: "Having nothing else on hand, Colonel Martin expressed a wish to born NEW York city. He was allowed to do so, and a most daring attempt has been made fnade to fire that oitr. bat the reliance on the Greek fire has proved a misfortune. It can not be depended on as an agent in suoh work"

Again: "Mr. Minor Major visited me and represented himself as an accredited agent from the Confederate States to destroy steamboats on the Mississippi river, and that his operations were suspended for want of means. 1 advanced him $2,000 in Federal currency, and soon af-r terwards several boats were burned at St. LoniR, involving an immeuse loss of property to the enemy."

Still again "Daring my stayin Canada a gr%pt amount of property has been destroyed by burning. Several parties claim to have done the work in St. bonis, New

Orleans, Louisville, Brooklyn

Philadelphia and at Cairo." Mr. Cleveland's administration has gone out of tbe way to glorify the monster who sent to the West Indies for yellow fever clothing, and had trunks.packed with unspeakable horrors. The flag of the Union was half-masted yesterday on the department of the interior and on

pension office itself,

the nose-a blow so powerful that it was

Colombo* (O.) Special. While discussing the general appropriation bill in the house to-day, Mr. Alien O. Myers, democratic member from this city, who was somewhat intoxicated, accused Mr. Littler (republican) with being influenced by capitalists, and characterized him as a sneak, a liar, a thief and a cur. The chair endeavored to call him to order, bat Mr. Myere persisted and refused to-obey the order of the gpeaker, all the while heaping the vilest abuse upon the house generally.

Mi. Littler, deathly pale, rushed across the aisle at Mr. Myers. The excitement that ensued .almost baffies description. The members rose to their feet with one accord and started in the direction of the belligerent statesmen, the whole bod' yelling like Comanches. Mr. Stillwel and Chief Clerk Fisher sheilded Myers, and prevented Mr. Littler from striking him. Mr. Stouger stood with a chair posed in the air ready to brain any one who attacked his democratic colleague.

While this scene was being enacted the speaker (Mr. Cogan) was vainly pounding and calling on the sergeant at-arms ana his assistants to separate the bot-headed members. Whe these officials finally appeared on the scene the cooler legislators had quieted the agitated parties and a sort of peace reigned.

Myers' friends quickly secured an adjournment, and staved off the resolutions to expel him which were being written. Two such resolutions are irepared, however, one to be introduced iy a democrat and the other by a republican, and there is little doubt Mr. Myers will be expelled. He has treated the house to several such exhibitions lately, but has been able to smooth them over.

Allen O. Myers, the member of the legislature who caused such a disgraceful scene in the house this afternoon, at tempted suicide by taking morphine late to-night. While swallowing the drug he dhoked and spat the greater portion of it out. He was driven to his home, and is now out of danger.

Mr, Cleveland a:d Mr. McDoiiald "Smiled." Ex-Senator McDonald, after dining at the White House, was invited into the president's "office," a private and commodious apartment, nicely furnished, and containing a large desk. "This is the place where I work with my coat off," said Mr. Cleveland when his guest had been seated and while he was surveying the room. "My most important business is transacted here." Thev conversed for a brief period on topics of tate, and then Mr. Cleveland remarked: "By the way, Mr. Arthur was very kind he seemed to desire to make my advent as pleasant as possible." And going to the closet and opening the same, he added: "The expresident has left me a supply of elegant liquors." "I could not doubt their excellence," interposed Mr. McDonald, "knowin President Arthur to have been a splendii judge of liquors."

Mr. Cleveland selected a black bottle, bearing a familiar brand, and, without calling a servant, took a cork-screw from his pocket, drew the cork, set some glasses and a pitcher of ice-water on the table and then he and Mr. McDonald "smiled, the visiting Hoosier taking two fingers and the president three fingers. It is said to. have been after they had "smiled" that the president had tendered Mr. McDonald the Russian mission.

I was sitting at the small table, hanging on with both hands, in company with a negro passenger, when there came an explosion that sounded as if a barrel of powder had gone off. Something whizzed by my face so closely that I felt the wind, and an other projectile struck me full in the breast. The negro was not so fortunate. He uttered a loud yell .as the sound came, threw up his hands, and with tho blood spurting from his face, went over backward with a crash that brought the skipper and crew down the hatch in a hurry. We picked him up, and first he swore that I had shot him, and then that I had hit him with a club, but in a moment he recovered from his fright and we began to investigate. "The man had been struck fairly in

The New Style Hats.

Philadelphia Times. "There will not be much change in the style of hats this season," said a promin ent Chestnut street hatter yesterday. "The high silk hats are a little higher and straighter—less of a bell- shape and with a little lighter curl in the rim. The Derbys are much the same, only there'is a slight deviation in the direction of square crowns. One of the new things is a reddish brown tan and a greenish

The great Opera Festival hall now "being erected in the exposition building in Chicago for the Opera festival, to occur April 6th to 18th, is now so far completed as to illustrate the fact that it is a beautiful auditorium and a? comfortable and excellent in its arrangements for seats as it is handsome. Mr. S. 6. Pratt, the projector and director of the festival, has carefully-tested the acconstic properties of the place and pronounces it as astonishingly perfect, the slightest sound being heard from the stage in every part of the honse. The decorations in the auditorium are beginning to show and the curved fronts of the private boxes as also the front of the dress circle and balcony is being decorated papier mache in ri gold.

It is announced that Patii will sing three times the first week and probably the-same number- of times the second week of the festival.
