The Fairy’s W ell. *The Fairy's Well” is an unusually inter- esting Ivish drama, and people who apprec ate plays in which are mixed all the elements of every day life, should not miss an oppor- tunity of seeing it, Last night this produc- tion wus vresented for the first time in Omaha, at Boyd’s opera house, by W. H. Powers' company, and created a ry favorable unpression. Being so simple asible lot and introducing the cters, it could not be otlicrwise than interesting., There was the proverbially heroic Ivish lad and his sw hicart, the miserlyjold villain, the aristocratic sconndrols, the persecuted heroine of high birth, the ancient matron and the aged servant, all e having their innocent fun or’ ploty rain somebody.

Incendiarism in kalls City. FarLs Crry, Neb,, May 8.—~[Svecial Tele- Tine Bee. |—At about 10:30 this evening, the city was alarmed by a cry of fire. Investigation showed that the new cottage of W, D. Easley was rapidly going up in smoke. The building was not quite completed, and the origin of the fire is a mystery. There is a well-founded suspicion that it was of incendiary origin and was fired for the purpose of robbery. The build- ing cosil when completed £2,000, and will be a total loss, as there was no insurance, Tho fire company did good work, and but for its efforts, several adjacent residences, would have suffered like fate. Second District Spoils. CrLnerso: Neb., May 3.—[Special to Tur Bee. ]—The republicans of the Second congressional district are very indignant at the attempt of John W. Jacobson to control the patronage in Laird’s district. There was aletter sent to Hon. James Laird and marked “personal.” Mr. Jucobson answered it and and informed the writer thereof that it was useless to mark anything personal, as he (Jacobson) was attending to ail of Laird's business. The friends of Mr. Laird want to know why matters are thus. They all sym- pathize with him in his present condition. It is remarked by many that none but the friends of Jacobson need apply, as all other applications were suppressed and were never examined by Mr. Laird, Your correspond- ent does not believe that Mr. Laird would, for one moment, keep Mr., Jacobson as his private secretary if such was the case. [ think this rumor was started by disappointed aspirants, but should these charges be true it will prove disastrous to Mr. Laird in the future, as his friends have a right to demand his personal attention to their applications. Affairs at Neligh. Nevion, Neb., May 8.—[Special to Tur Bee.]-—Neligh is baving no boom, but is hav- ing a steady, healthy growth.

The duke was taking a family dinner with the old king and the princesses of his court, the Duchoess of Angouleme and the Duchess of Berri. Upon the table, at desert, was placed a dish of early straw- berries, The King deliberately poured them all out into his own plate, covered them with cream and sugar and ate them, withput offering any to the ladies or apologizing for not doing so. Lord Mahon, the historian, on hear- ing the duke relate this anecdote, eapped it with another. William 111., king of England, dining one day with his wife, Queen Mary, and Princess Ante, afterward Queen Anne, ato the contents of o dish of early peas without a word of apology to the two ladies. The Duke of Wellingtog laughed and said: “Aye, I hope it is not & royal custom. $ guests must have known what he meant by this remark. He had recently gone through many troublesome and some disgusting experionces with that very vulpar and disreputable king, George IV., of whom the duke aft ward said that ““he really could act like a gentleman—for fifteen minutes! There are no ‘‘nobles” more proud of their ancient lineage and fine breed- ing than thoso of Spain. Wellington, who lived among them several years, d that they formed a little coterie about the court at Madrid, never lived upon their estates, had no public life, and valued nothing but the petty dist- tinctions of the court circle. He de- seribes them as very good-natured people, of erude and primitive man- ners, but ‘‘complete liars, and destitute of principle or high fecling.” The real avistocracy of a country con- si of those who take the lead in strengthening, teaching and improving it. Ancient birth has nothing to do with the true aristocracy, not even in the comparatively unimportant matter of polite demeanor. Some of the greatest Dblackguards now living on the earth had unexceptionable great-grand- fathers, and some of the most consum- mate gentlemen have made their way, aided, from the lowliest homes, or still inhabit them. = e Robert P. Porter's Work. Superintendent Porter expects in a short time to have 100 clerks gaged on the preliminary work of the eleventh consus, He will have 1,600 at work next year, but the smaller number will serve until the actual work of enumera- tion is-nearer at hand. He says th he does not intend to appoint his clerk under the civil service rules if he can help it, and he does mot believe the secretary of the interior will interfere with him in this. e intends, he says, to appoint his subordinates as he would in anewspaper office, according to their fitness for special lines of work, and it is fair to say that he seems to have fol- lowed this policy in the few appoint- ready made.
