Tarts, May 25. Fire broke oat to-m?ht &t the Opera Comiqne darin the first act of the opera of "Mignon." One of the "Wiogs caught fixe from a gas-jet, and the entire stage was immediately enveloped in flaaiea. Tbe lire soon spread to the whole house. Had ante Jlergviliier and M. M. Tasquim and Bernard were on the sta?e when tbe fire broke out All the actors ran out in stage costume. The aadience got olT easily, but the gas was turned oil before all left the building, and it is leared that some were left In the upper tiers. Tbe roof soon fell in, sending showers of sparks as far as the Tlace de la Bourse. With the exception of Madame Tellier, -who perished, all the actors e3eaped, although several supernumeraries are injured severely. Five bodies, terribly burnt," were conveyed to the National Library. Among tbem was the body of a woman clasping a little boy in her arms. The money receipts were saved and deposited in the Gauioi's office. The crertien showed the greatest courage. Vim. Gablet, Thitaudin aDd Grejnon were on the spot soon after the fire started and remained throughout with the fire cfSciala. A military club rendered great assistance in tbe work of rescuing the people from the baildiDg. Nineteen persons are known to be dead. Many of these are supers. The artificial fire apparatus, which had been placed in position in readiness for the burning of the palace, in the Eecond act, rolled down from its place near the roof, and exploded below. The women, half clad, carrying their costumes, fled from the stage, screaming. The supers and members ot the chorus were terrified. Some of the latter fled with nothing on but tights. The flames spread with such rapidity that in fifteen minutes the state was a va3t furnace. Several actors escaped by climbing to tae roof cn the side of the Hue Marivanta, where they were rescued by fire esoapes. M. Tajquin Implored "the audience to remain seated until the exits were opened, which they did. If they had made a rush for the doors the loss of life would have been terrible. The police outside were unable to restrain the crowd, who besieged the building, inquiring for friends inside until a military cordon was formed. One man who wanted to resize his brother and sister, raved, tore his lair and menaced with a stick people who topped him from rushing into the blazing building. The scene outside was one of the wildest excitement Falling embers struck the horses in the surrounding streets, causing them to plunge and rear. Flames shot out of every window, forcing the crowd into the narrow streets, where the crush was temnc Madame Figurante says there were 150 persons on the stage when the fire broke out. Ehe heard the glass tailing like hail storm, but told.the other girls not to mind at. But while she was speaking a column oi came burst through the wings witn a roar, and all rushed pell-mell from the stage. Many policemen were injured. It ia still unknown now many persons were unable to escape Jrom the building. Only a fortnight ago M. Steenackera called attention in the Chamber of Deputies to the dangerous condition of the Opera Comique, the oldest theater in Paris. The Figaro a! 90 called attention to the same tbiDg after a recent twelve-hour benefit performance. The Ilavas News Agency places the number of persona killed and injured by the re at Blxty. The theater was completely cestroyea. raj Taeis, May 20. The bodies of ballet dancers who lost their lives by the burn ing oi tne upera uomique last night are lying in heaps in the ruins of the theater. Ihe firemen assert that many bodies are iying in the upper galleries. The number of persons killed greatly exceed the previous estimates. An excited crowd sur xounded the ruins, which are guarded by a military cordon. Many distressing scenes are wimesseu. 2 p. m. Twenty bodies In a terribly xnauiatea condition nave been recovered Irom the ruins. The remains are princi pally these of ballet girls, choristers aad machinists. Five of the bodies are those of elderly ladies and one of them is that of a c;nld. The firemen are lowering son of the bodies from the fourth story of the afceater by means ct rope. p. m. iwenty more bodies were re covered this afternoon from the ruins of the Theater Comique. Search for victims till continues. The remains of three men and two women were found in the stage box, where the victims had taken refuge from the fames It is ascertained that many bodies lie buried in the debris in the upper gal Jeries, where escape was exceedingly dim ult. The Government proposes to close several of the Paris theaters because of their deficiency in exits. Late this afternoon the bodies of nineteen women, all in full dress, were found Jying toe ether at tbe bottom of the stairvase leading from the seoond story. These ladies all bad escorts to the theater, but no Tmair)s of men were f .und anywhere near where the women were burned to death. Ihe walls of the theater began falling this evening, and the search for bodies had to be abandoned for the day. The library at lache d to the theater was entirely de stroyed, with all its contents, including xcany valuable scores. Six thousand cos tumes were burned in the wardrobe. The work of tearching for the bodies was resumed to-night, ana a number more were exhumed. An official statement says znat iiiiy oooies nave aireaay oeen recov ered. M. Heveillon, speaking in the Chamber of Deputies this afternoon, est! mated that at least 200 persons had lost Jheir lives in the fire. One hundred and fifty-six missing per sons have been inquired for by relatives. IThey are supposed to have perished in the xiamea. The bottom or the theater is flood cd with water to the depth of five feet. . Eixty bodies have been found floating in zne water or tne cremen. Among the audience at the Comique last night were General Bouianger, General t-'Bir, General Thibaudin, if. Goblet, 31. Berthelot, Marquis Ferronayls, and the preiect of police. All escaped unhurt. An artist namedThilippe performed prod JgUs of valor An saving life. He mounted n ladder three times and saved three danues after they had been abandoned by the firemen.

A local paper gives an account of a gigantic scheme to consolidate all tbe cattle Interests of the Northwest and form a company which shall control $15,000,000 worth of cattle and grazing lands. It seems to have originated with the Wyoming Stock Association, of Cheyenne, and is the outgrowth of a combination of smaller cattlemen into companies, which has been coins on for several years. This scheme has been formed for organiz ing the largest cattle company ever known, controlling hundreds of thousands of cattle, and ranees larger than many States. The failure of the Bwan Brothers brought matters to a foens rather unexpectedly. The plan is to unite the Wyomtog, Colorado, Eastern Utah, Western Nebraska, Southern Montana, and Southern Dakota into one giant company, each abso lutely surrendering his individual herd and ranch, and receiving a proportionate amount of stock in return. A similar association has been recently formed in Texas, but one of far less extent and complete in its organization. The danger of throwing upon the market a large amount of stock at an unfavorable time mil thus be entirely obviated, and such disasters as followed tbe Indian Ter ritory sales rendered impossible. Periodical depressions necessitating weaker ranchmen to sell unmatured stock at ruinous prices have been disastrous at times, and this con solidation will in a great measure if not entirely relieve this. Fear of disastrous conEequences of the Swan failure compelled the cattlemen to take immediate action, and delegates were sent to New York, London aad Ldinburga to Impress upon the capitalists of these cities, who agreed to go into the enterprise, the necessity of immediate action, whicb. they have done with commendable sctivitv. There are connected with the enterprise: Sturmis, Lane, Carey, Davis, Illtle and Clarke, of Cheyenne, and Ulrichs & Have-meyc-r, of New lork. together witn a number of Scotch and Ecglieb. capitalists, and come from Boston and Philadelphia. These gentlemen already control fully half the stock in Wyoming and have tbe support of nearly ail the rest of that .territory. The catttle will be apportioned to the ranges, tbe water supply fairly divided, and the prcductive region largely increased. The Story of Tom, Joe and Ja e. Salt Lake Tribune. I Tom Collette, with two friends whom I shall christian Joe and Jake, was making a slow and painful journey from Pine Grove, Esmeralda County, to Eastern Nevada. They camped one afternoon near some hot Fprisgs not fai from Walker Lake. Discovering a large hole or poo) that was fall of cold water and convenient to one of the hottest of the bot springs, they turned the hot water as it flowed out of the spring into the pool, until the hot and cold water blending made exactly the right temperature for a bath. This done, they plunged in and enjoyed the delicious water as only those can who have traveled some days over dusty alkali trails in hot weather. When supper was over and they had lighted their pipes, the theme of conversation for a long time as they smoked, was the delicious bath they had taken and tbe wonderful sense of refreshmeht it had brought them. Full of the joy of it, they spread their blankets on a grassy spot beneath Borne willows a few yards distant from the spring, and fell asleep. Tom was up with the dawn. Recollections of his fine bath of the previous evening were still fresh in his mind. So, bounding np from his blankets with a skip and a jump, he plunged Into the pool to his middle. With a groan of agony he sprang out again with the agility of a wildcat. The hot water had been running all night. Hours before dawn the cold water pool had been rendered almost as hot as that of the hot spring itself. Brief as had been the ?eriod between his entry and his exit, om's fair skin was changed to the color of a boiled lobster. He was soon in a terrible state, as the skin was almost sufficiently cooked to peel off. As ha asserts, he "wa as tender as a young pullet that had been cooked two hours." With indnite care he drew on his pantaloons and boots, though he felt as though the cooked flesh was peeling off in Btrips wherever his clothing touched him. Forcing back the tears of anguish that were swelling out of his eyes. Tom erect back to camp. Though it was a most difficult thing to do, he put on his old time frank smile as he n eared the sleepingplace at the willows, for Jake had awakened and was sitting on his blakets, gaping and stretchiBg. Seeine Tom approach. Jake asked where he had been ii he had been out looking after his pomes. Tom replied that he had so enjoyed his bath of the evening before, and had been so much benefitted by it, that he could not think of breaking up camp without repeating It. "Jake," said he, "it's just lovely!" Jake did not wait to hear more. Bouncing up from his blankets he rushed away toward the pool. As swiftly as he could move. considering the tender condition of his skin, Tom followed, and dodging behind a convenient clump of willows, kept covert watch. Jake threw oil tbe few duds in which be had slept, bounced into the pool, uttered a yell of mingled anguish and rage. then clawed his way out upon the green turf with the celerity of an adder. As soon as he stood erect he began making swift ap plications oi mi open nana a to various parts of his body to arrest the pain, each particular square inch ot his hide seeming to hurt worse than the other. All this time he was swearing a blue streak. Louder and louder rose his voice, as light began to break upon his mind when Tom stepped out from his hiding-place crying: "Hush up! Would you bawl like a bull calf and give us away, when that other pon-ot-a-eun up in camp is not yet cooked? i on and l have had our dose. Man. we must cook him or we snail never hear the last of it!" Soothed by this, Jake caref ally drew on his trousers and shirt and the pair leisurely proceeded to camp. By this time Joe had commenced to rouse up. Seeing Tom and Jake approaching he asked If they had "foand the stockthe pontes "Ponies, no," said Tom, "we haven't peen looxirjg ior tne ponies, we nave been taking a bth. Do you think," said he, as he stood holding his pantaloons away from the rear of his person, "do you think we'd break camp without one more magnificent aw im7 hot much." At this Joe sprang up crying: "Not mucn, you bet!" and dashed away toward tbe little pond. As Joe disappeared behind the willows Tom sprang for his pistol and took off all the caps. He and Jake then secured their own revolvers. Tom crvlns ' Get your pistol, Jake quick! There'll be business when Joe comes bftck!" In about two minutes Joe did come back. He howl ing and cursing furiously and, all naked as he was, never stopped running until he got his nx-enooter in his hand. "Drop it!" said Tom, "I have a deadhead on jou and so has Jake. Besides, I took all the caps oti your gum." The difficulty was amicably settled as soon as Jake and Tom had related their ex perien.ee;, The Uio took theix breaklart

New Stock Law. Connersrille Examiner.! The new stock law enacted by the last Legislature makes it the duty of the Supervisors to take up and Impound all stock that is found upon the public highways, and in case of failure or neglect of this duty they are liable to a heavy fine. It is no matter whether the stock has only broken from an enclosure or has been Intentionally turned upon the commons, its presence on the roads without the owner is sufficient to warrant the Supervisor in takiBg it into custody and holdine it until the fines imposed are fully paid. The right to allow stock to run at large on the highways has been greatly abused. Farmers have been put to great trouble aad expense In fencing their enclosures effectually against a cow or two that some one was pasturing upon the roads. Every man was compelled to keep his gates constantly closed and barred lst a drove of hogs or a flock of sheep should raid his premises. It was this that made the people call for a stock law. Tbe last legislation upon this subject ia the most severe and effective of any yet passed, and, as might be expected, is not giving nniversal satisfaction. Tbe man who has a horse or a cow to keep and no pasture thinks it an outrage to be compelled to keep it up In a dry pen while the road-sides are covered with hieh grass and his immediate neighbors enter no protest sgainst his stock running out, and others think it equally unjust stock that has broken out or left on the roads by accident should be -run in and held for fines. Under the new law the supervisor Is compelled to take up stock whether there ia any complaint made or not. "While the law may be too severe, it makes a sure thing and leaves no loop-hole through which the transgressor may crawl out. Whether or not this law Is a Just one, or whether it Is what it ought, to te, it is better to abide by it than to disregard it. All who have been disposed, t? make &e tet

have found, after being subject to heavy costs, tbat it w ill stand. It ia a law of the fctate and will be enforced.

A NewStory About Grant. ISew York Graphic. Colonel II. A. Chadwick recently told a little story about General Grant that ought to be published : "In 18C4 General Grant was a good deal at headquarters in Washington. He loved a fast horse, and he thought the big chestnut Cincinnatus he then drove would take the dust from no other in Waehing ton. One day he was spinning along the road on the outskirts of the town when he noticed a rough-looking gray horse trotting along to a two-wheeled butcher-wagon filled with meat. The General flew past the wagon, but the gray just Bet back his ears and the way he made the mud fly along that road was justaV toniihing. He got his nose to the rear of Grant's buggy, he pulled his head to the hind wheels, and his forequarters were soon pattering along in a swift, neverbreaking trot near the heels of the great Cincinnatus. Grant got mad and used his whip, the butcher driver laughed wickedly and held the reins taut on the gray, and the meat-wagon, jolting and jumping, showered the dirt from its wheels over the General and into the nose of the horse he thought could not be beat. "üext morning early little Webster, o Grant's staff, came 07er to meandsiid: 'Chad, the old man is as mad as sheol thia morning. lie was out on the road yesterday, end got beat by a gray horse dragging, a load of beef. Now he wants that horse, and you are to buy it for ninx. Here's his check signed in blank, and you must not lose that animal for 15,000.' Well, to make a long story short, 1 found who owned the boree, and, as luck would have it, I got hin in to ii y stable for $350, and ten minutes after he was at headquarters, in Grant's pessession. When the General drove him out the l ext day the butchers 8a w him, and in Laif an hour the man of meat was at onr hotel making the air blue for having nold tho horse at eo low a figure. Bat I threw a couple of bottles of wine into him and sent Mm away satisfied. Graxt drove that gray horse for ten years, and it was his favorite animal during all that time. It finally died on the General's term in Mis souri. i) Drawing the Color XJne. I Atlanta Constitution.! A number of prominent colored men have made arrangements for holding a national convention of their race in Indianapolis Eome timo during the summer. The projectors are mainly from the north, and tbe convention is to be held mainly for the purpose of organising the colored voters and preparing for the next national cam paign. Borne of our exchanges are pointing to this project as au attempt to keep up the color line, the convention being for the purpose of organizing the negroes as a ra;e party. We have frequently remarked this tendency on the part of the colored voters. Though they deprecate the drawing of the color line by the whites, they never heless keep It dd for political purposes of their own, and piopose to make party capital out of it. It is a very foolish affair altogether, just as a convention of Irishmen or Germans would be; but the negro, both nofth and south, has a vague idea that his race is a more important matter than citizenship. The idea is the result, and perhaps the natural result, of the circumstances that have attended the history of the negro race since freedom, but it is a very vicioas idea in some important respects, and its euect on the future of the negroes is not auspic ions. Still it is a matter that only time can remedy. After awhile tie colored brother will recognize that citizenship n a more important affair than race aililations, and then we shall hear nothing more of the color line as a political factor. "A PIECE OF ADVICE." Threatening Letter Received by Mr. O'Brien Yesterday. Niagara Falls, May 21. -Mr. William O'Brien arrived here this evening from Hamilton, Ont., on his way to Montreal. To-day in Hamilton, the following letter was bended him. It waa posted in Syra cuse, rs . I ., on May 19, and traveled to all the towns where Mr. U linen kas visited, reaching him finally at Hamilton: "East Syraccee, N. Y., May 13, 1837. "A piece of advice. William C'Brien, you black hearted Irish fool, If you ever make your appearance in Kingston or Ottawa your blood win run cold, lake my advice and go back to your black Irish home. r. G." 'I will be there in less than forty-eight hour?." "This letter," said Mr. O'Brien, ''portends something dangerous. I do not, as a rule, care much about threatening letters, but the man who wro'e that is just the sort of a fellow who shot at me last night." IThat the Gun Was Good For. The Wasp.l "Yes, gentlemen," said one of the few yet nnboycotted liars of the Bohemian Club as he finished a snipe-shooting story; "ibat was the most rennrkible gun I ever saw. Wouidu't Uke $1,000 for it." "It's nothing to a gun I used to own," said an ex-champion prevaricator, waking up just then. "Itwa9 simply impossib'e for a bird to get away from that gun. It made the closest and most regular pattern you ever Baw. I traded it for a fifty-acre lot." 'To Bogardus, eh?" said the other finished equivocate r, sarcastically. 'Xo, to Jimpson, the big wholesale druggist. He used it to Bhoot holes in porous plasters fifty at a clip." And then nothing could be heard except tbe scratching of the other man's pen as he wrote out his resignation. Denouncing Mr. O'Brien. Tobosto, May 21. The Blxth annual session of the Grand Lodge Orange Youog Britons commenced here to day with a large attendance of delegates. Grand Master Morrison, in his address referred to the home-rule agitation, which, he said, was being carried on by unprincipled demagogues in Ireland ; and while deploring he breach of law accompanying Mr. O'Brien's visit to some parts of tbe country, expressed gratification that his visit had fallen entirely short of its intention to discredit the representative of Her Majesty in this Dominion.

It is very likely that the earnest divine is too lazy to con template such a climbing teat without per spiring, and probably has to be petitioned sixty times to carry a scuttle of coal up the cellar stairs. A number of gentlemen in this country have undertaken to erect a monument to St. Taul in his native city of Tarsus. The monument will take the practical shape of a training-school for orphans, of whom there are a great many In OJicia. A nam ber of people have already become inter ested in the project, and about $u,;uj a year has been pledged, a sum sufficient to support aoout ruty cnuarer.. The church army of the Church of England, which is at work among tbe poor by methods modeled, to some extent, after those of the Salvation army, has brought forward for confirmation over 3 000 adults, mostly gathered from tho Btreet corners and from public houses; has 1,000 more adults awaiting confirmation, and has over 6,000 adult communicants, who are humble speakers and laborers in the cause of Christ. The King of Slam hasfgiven $1,410 to the hovpital established by the American Presbyerian missonaries, and the Queen has given $000 to thejschools and the Old Ladies,' home established by the same missionaries, The King has promised future aid, and has instructed the minister of education to place the missionary schools on the same plane with the government echcols, and to aid them in the support of teachers, the furnishing of books, and in other necessary ways. Over $50,000 has been the result from the first of the annual collections for the nero and Indian missions ordered for the first Sunday in Lent, throughout the United States, by the plenary council of Baltimore. Thia is exclusive of what goes to the 8ociety for the Propagation of Faith. It will be distributed oa the return of Cardinal Gibbons, who, with Bishop Kain, of Wheeling, W. Va., and Bishop Curtis, of Wilmington, Del., constitute the commission on military work. A good old church deacon in Michigan, who was tempted into dabbling a bit in wheat, picked up the paper one morning and read : "A more hellish feeling developed in the market yesterday." The editor had written "bullish," but the good old deacon laid the paper right down and went to the telephone and said to his broker: "Sell me out at once for whatever you can get. I have been expecting something like this for a long time, and I don't propose to have old Satan walk in on me." Somebody makes this remark: "Some churches revive only when they are stirred up. The life of their members is, for the most part, a menagerie life. They are kept confined in cages when they would like to be running in lawlessness. There they lie all nerveless, listless and forlorn ; their tongues protruded in a listless wagging until some gay-robed exhibiter, bearing a flag of his own some fancy preacher steps jauntily Into the ring to stir them np, and then the dismal spot resounds with dismal life, and this they call a revival." Borne of the more liberal minded Church of England clergymen who chafe under certa n church restrictions propose to introduce a bill into the House of Commons next year, providing for greater liberty for Clergymen and conformist ministers to preach in other pulpits. In the meantime arr augments are to be made, if possible, for the delivery on a given day of religious lectures by nonconformists in the naves of eeveial churches. Efforts are to be made also for tne participation in the jnbilee services In Westminster Abbey of one or more of her majesty 'a Presbyterian chaplains. The London Missionary Society Chronicle publishes Interesting facts regarding the society. It is ninety-two years old, and has passed more than half of its existence during the Victorian period. In the year of the Queen's accession the income was 04,372, an Increase of 11,000 on the previous year. Last yesr the income was 124,078. The number of stations has increased in the interval from 423 to 1.78G; Ihe European ordained missionaries from 114 to the native teachers fröm 451 to G,00G; the communicants from G.615 to 0.5G1, and the scholars from 34,222 to 140,3S7. Omaha la ly: "You are taking a prominent part In Chinese missions, I believe." San Francisco lady: "I am laboring only among the Chinese girls in California, and my success with those who were born there is remarkable." "I am glad to hear

that" "It is much easier to influence the

girls than the boys. The Chinese girls teem to have a very clear comprehension of the utility of Western ways,aud lately I have felt ever so much encouraged." "They are not hopelessly heathen, then?' "No, indeed. Why, eome ot them bane their hear and wear bustles." The Boston Post savs that a verv low churchman objected to one of the canticles lung at morning service called the "Bencdicite." because the invocation, "O ye spirits and souls of the righteous, bless ye the Lord, praise him and magnify him forever," implied prayers to the deadl He went to a neighboring rarson and pro claimed his grievance. "By the way, sir," answered the pastor, "let me call yor attention to another invocation in the 3tme canticle. It reads: "Oall ye green thing3 upon the earth, bless ye the Lord." To those who are inclined to think that the Jews exalt ceremony above feeling, the following from the Jewish Messenger will be interactive: "It is a blunder to identify reheion wholly with devotion, and meas ure the religious man or woman by mere attendance at public worship, or methodic performance of ritual acts. Neither-kneel ing nor bowing, neither declamation of grayer nor utterance of song can properly e termed religion. Religion is more of the heart, the sentiment, the tender, true, righteous deed. "Keep thy heart diligently, for out of it are the issues of life,' is the everlasting yea of Scripture." TRUSTEES COMMISSIONED. The New members of the Insane HospUal Board Kecelvo Tkelr Papers. Mr. Joseph L. Carson, who has been ap pointed president of the hoard of trustees of the insane Hospital, was in the city yesterday and received his commission from the hands of Governor Gray. He aid not siana on .tne order or his going, but left almost immediately for his home. There is this much known, however: Mr. Carson is a very energetic, able and determiced man and will have his office if it is to be had. Dr. Harrison was at work yesterday morning as usual, taking cursory glances at supplies and letting contracts for the hospital as though everything was lovely and bloomin'. t Mr. Flack, who it was supposed would not accept because he could not afford to exchange a $6,000 contract for furnishing the institution with supplies for a $G30 po sition, was also in the city yesterday and received his commission. He was very uncommunicative, and wouJd not Bay what he would do in case Mr. Gapen did not chooEe to quietly resign. "We want to fix things up as amicably as possible, which is the best way," was all he had to say. The two new appointees will give bond in a few days for the faithful discharge of their duties. Then the matter of who has the tight of cilice will be taken to the court. It was expected tbat Messrs. Carson and Flack would make a formal demand yesterday for their places, which would have been refused, and quo warranto pro ceedings follow, but they had no such in tentions, it seems. DR. HARRISON'S SUCCESSOR. Mr. Carson Formally Appointed President of the Insane Hospital Board. As foreshadowed by the Sentinel, the ap pointment of Joseph L. Carson, of Fairland, bhelby Conntv, was yesterday an nonnced by Governor Gray as president of tne Board of Trnstees of the Ins iua lios pital, to succeed Dr. Harrison. Many fnends of Mr. Carson were in the city urg Ine his appointment, Mr. Carson will ac cept, and will be here to day to receive his nar-ers. Dr. Harrison, who has loosed forward to such event and has been in the city the week past receiving ad vice from friends and getting ready for the fray, will, cf course, resist. The matter will be taken to the courts at once. Governor Grav cives the same reasons that he gave for the appointment of Mr. Flack Dr. Harrhou has held the office for four years and his term of office, the Governor says, has expired, "lhereis no hold-over which the law provides for, and it is the business of the Governor to supply va cancies as fast as they occur," said Gover nor Grav. Mr. Harrison, however, is in diced to another opinion, and will sec what tne courts say awut it, A Pioneer Farmer Dead. Kokomo, May 20. William Petty, an old pioneer farmer, died at his residence one mile east of this city yesterday, and was buried to day. He was one of the best krown men in the county, having been a Vfry popular auctioneer of farm property in this and adjoining counties for the last forty years. KASKTNE IIE NE QUININE.)
