Mr. Thomas Officer, in & communication tothe city authoritics, states that it will cost §1,200 to construct an electric light line to the chautauqua grounds, and if the city will build the line, he will furnish the light froe. The council isin favor of building the line, some of the aldermen expressing the belief that the city would receive enough benefit from the chautauqua to warrant it in bearing the entire cost. Alderman Everett favored appropriating #3500, provided Mr, Officer would place certain lights along the line for one year. Bids for the construction of the line have been wdvertised for, 80 it is regarded as cer- tain that it will be built, A committee was appointed to confer with Mr. Oficer regard- ing the matter, and a report will be made at the next meeting, which will be favorably acted upon, if the line can be erected at tho cost above stated. — Notice the beautiful finish given col- lars, cuffs and shirts by Cascade Laun- dry company. e Another Matinee.

Cuar TAN Manawa's Auspicious Opening. As previously aunounced, yesterday was the time st for, the opening of Hotel de Manawa and the lake gencraliy for the sea- sonof 1889, During the day but few visitors took advantage of the half-hourly trips of the Manawa motor trains to visit the lake, owing to the dust and strong wind, and at 5 o'clock there were very few people to be scen of the grat crow.d that was expicted. At that time, however, the wind fell con- siderably, and soon after the stream of humanty began to flow toward the lako. Until after 9 o'clock the south bound cars were filled to overflowing and came back empty for other loads that were waiting to follow. The hotel was bardly to be recog- nized in its bright, new colors, und the great improvements about the grounds in the wa; of walks, lawn, shade trees, etc., combine to render more complete’ the wonderful transtormation effected there since last sea- son. Landlord Tamisica was scemingly present everywhere, looking after the comfort of ~each and every guest. 1t was evident at first glance that hie was the man for the place, and thorougbly under- stood the art of conducting a suinmer resort hotel in a manner to sutisfy even the numer- ous demands of & critical public, 1t was not, however, untii the doors of the Qining hall were thrown opon at G o'clock,that the full realization of tho fitness of mine host for his position dawned upon the minds of the assembled hundreds. 1twas like entering auother sphere. The decorations of the room were of u nature both unique and_beautiful Opposite the door was a largo **Welcome, wrought in_evergreens, upon the wall upon all sides, us well iz from the were artistically arranged figures in Jap: anese fans and parasols, The larce pillar the center of the room was almost hidden from view behind a mass of vines and flcw- ers. On the tables and in various places about the room werc groups of cut flowers and potted plants, the whole burdening the air with a rich and delicious fragrance, Covers were laid for a hundred guests, and whiting to attend to their wants were o dozen colored waiters, faultlessly attired. It was a scene not soon to be forgotten by the favored ones, whoso eyes first foll upon it before the rush and burry of hungry guests had marred ite perfect arrangement. The menu was most cluborate and was got- ten up in o highly artistic and pleasing man- nor, and the guests carried them away as beaitiful souvenirs of the occasion, Space forbids extended mention of the countlcss luscious dishos prepared by the capable b Diuner was served to the constaatly vidg guests until afier o o'elock: the evening the purlors were cleared for dancing, and until long after midnight the visitors tripped the light fantastic to the delightful strains of Prof, Heisc chestra, which furnished music for the aftdrnoon and evening. Over two bundred people were present from Oniuha, and expressed their unqualified de- light and appree; "Phe occasion wWis more than was expected, and apens the soason at the lake in o man' ner so fur i advance of all foriner attempts s 1o admit of no comparison.

The author of *“Little Tord Fauntle- roy” has creatad o great reputation for herself.and in this, her latest novel, it is fully sustained. This a bright romance in which the passionate nature of the Spaniard is deiineated with pic turesque effect. The scene is laid in Madrid. The heroine, Pepita,a seif- willed, tempestuous girl of the humbler class, when introduced to the reader, is possessed of a vivacious and joyous ture, with a distinet antipathy to the amorous overtures she is continually re- ceiving from the men in her neighbor- hood, owing to her fascinating beaut; In spite of this avowed antipathy, how ever, she at length surrenders her heart, after a very obstinate struggle.to the superior power of Sebastiano, the favorite matador of Madrid, Pepita’s behavior to Sebastiano would discou age an American lover, but her appar- ent coldness only fans the flame of the Spaniard’s passion., yet ho at ono time loses all hope, owing to Pepita’s unpre- cedented conduct at a bull ficht. When Sebastiano,at the most exciting moment pnflict, thro the devisa into Pepita’s lup, she deliberately scorns the honor by publicly stamping on the rib- bon. This action on her part is possi- ble, no doubt, but bearing in mind the fact that she was a true Spaniard, such treatment of the devisa appeurs very im probable. The humbling of Pepita’s proud spirit and the ultimate avowal of her fierce love for Sebastiano, is beautifully told. The splendor and excitement of a bull fight in Madrd is graphically described, The plot is not peculiar for any origin- ality, except in the dramatic intensity of the incidents developing it. The story is related with the piquancy and agrecable simplicity so characteristic of the author. The illustrations are good in design, but the engraving is hoor. Jose, by Charles or R, Or FAITHFUL AND UNPAITHFUL, by aret Lee; Frank F. Lovell & Co., New Yorlk, The plaintive ery, ““Is marriage a fail- ?” has become wearisome by the monotony of repetition. One man’s af- firmative is answered by another man’s negative. and so the controversy is sus- tained without much benefit to society in general. ‘Margaret Lee, in this novel, has apparently desired to show what a terrible failure can be made of geunder certain conditions rine, Constance, is high soule sensitive, with a sweet di altogether a very lovable girl—though hardly a reality in this so-called pra tical age. Her purity of purpose shines Jlendent, resembling some star co spicuous for its brightness in an atmos- phere reeking with subdued immoral- ity, where separations and divorces are discussed as lightly as a change in the weather. Such is the New York society in which Constance moves. Unfortu- nately, she passionately loves Gilbert Travers, a very handsome, magnetic and intellectual man, but also a mass of egotism and sclfishness. He final dovelopes into a repulsive brute. Con stance is young and invests him with all the attributes of her ideal; she marries him solely because of her great love for him; he marries her for love of himself. Such a union is productive of the usual results, When the husband’s passions are aroused by the fascinations of another woman, Constance, unable to cast out love for her husband, suffers inconceivable tor- tures. He deceives her to the end, when the refinement of cruelty is at- tained by his contemptible method of obtaining a divorce without her knowl- edge. The story certainly illustrates the evils existing in society of the present day, but the public reguire no novel to impress that fact, as the law courts fur- nish ample opportunity for studying our immorality. The author offers no remedy for the discase, but only la- ments the legal facilities for obtaining divorces. From the incidents related, it is diffi- cult to decide as to the merits or d merits of **Divorce Made asy.” Matr! mony is undoubtedly a very sevious and sacred compuct; its success must depend on the behavior of the contracting par- ties themselves. The evil in man can seldom be cuved by legislation. To those who enjoy an_ illustration of spreading social epidemic, this novel will prove acceptable. Frefatory to the story is an interesting review of Rt. Hon, W. E. Giadstone. AN L D. BN Sours Armica—By Louise Vescelius Sheldon, Frank F. Lovett & Co., New York. Refused Two Presidents, Among the curious coincidences gathercd by the Religio-Philosophical Journal is that two girls from the same small Obio villinge rejected two future l.ruui-h-ms of the Uuau States, and both for the snme cause—poverty Hayes was one of the suitors, but the parents of the girl opposed the match ou the ground that he showed hardly sufficient ability to warrant trusting their girl iu his care. Gorfield paid at- tentions to the other, and again the parents objected that his future pros- pects were none too bright, Bedford, the village in guestion did not at that time coutain 500 inhabitants., But in Ohio a girl runs great risks of refusing a president when she declives any suitor whatever. The coincidence would be stronger if it had oceurred in some state where the lightning strikes less unex- pectedly. DNESDAY MAY 8, 1 1HE 8AMOA FRR —_— An Estimate of Gormany's Terms— Receptions gnd, Reylews, [Copn roht 1665 by JiViven Gorigon Bennett.) BenrLis, April 7.—[New '§ofk Herald Cable Special to Tue Bk, |—From s source which, though excellent T know) F¥# not at liberty to quote, 1 am enabled topresent to you an approximate estimate of thetérms that would satisfy Germany in the sdlntion of the Sa- moan dificulty. ‘It cannotvbe: denied, nor is it denied by Americans whg have been in the island, that Germany has invested more money—three times as myct money they claim—in Samoa as both, Kwgland @nd the United States taken together. What the German government therefore claims is, in the first place, satisfaction for the killing of the German officers and sailors in the action with Mataafa’s men on December 17 last; and, secondly, compensation for losses sus- tained by German investors and own- ers of pluntations. If, therefore, the United States will purchase the planta- tions owned by thie German company, or the Sumonns themseives purchase the planti- tions, payment being guaranteed by the United States, Germany will not make the slightest objection to the installation of Malicton or some one of the minor chiefs not hitherto named, Tamasesee having no follow - ing and Mataafa being utterly out of the question from the German standpoint. The state of war, too, still nominally existing, they will probably urga the punishment of Mataafa, say by imprisonment for a time on board the German man-of-war or on the wland under the German flag. They may waive this condition in cousideration of a round sum being baid the widows, orphans or nearest relations of the Germuus slain on the island. 'ihe third condition, equally acceptable to cach of the three powers, is that the three col- lectively guarantee the neutrality of Samoa. In other words, Germany wishes to save the stake in the aslands, and it would perhaps be the wisest policy on the part of the United States to accept this, after all, simplest solu- tion of the difficulty, and by well timed con cessions to Germany's tender sense of hono: and solicitude for the welfare of her col- onists, make friends of her forever. Well informed Germans ussure me that Count Herbert Bismarck had not the slight ition of impressing the Inglish- members of the conference with sreatness of CGermuny at the ex nense of their own fe when he made that famous speech in vthe begin- ning of the conference. He was obliged, though he speaks English like an English to uphold s right to use Erench as e of diplomatie intercourse, If NCBE. Rus ent us rown niards, Italians, Portuguese aod s might have pointed to the pr ification of their right to use th ch he might not be equaily familiar at some future couference. Nor 18 it true that the two Amcrican members of the conference were entirely ignorant of that language. Phelps spoke that langua court, and Bates himself assured me that he understood almost every word the count ut- tered on that memorable occasion, At the presentation of colors last Thurs- day morning to the First regiment foot urds, Kasson, Phelps and Bates were in s and I understand that the ously pleased to express his regret at the ivon rule that insists on that costume on such occasious as n substitute for the full uniform. ~Amidthat larce crowd of imperial guests, attired 'one and all in uni- hue of the rainbow, the American representatives attmcted general notice by the republican simplicity of their attire. It is safe to say that if ever three American diplomatists vegretted th ence of diplomatic uniform in the American ser- vice, these three gentiemen didy, Two young naval officers, Buckingham -and Parker, were in full uniform, cocked hats and all, and u couple of handsomer young fellows could scarcely e hcen' picked out to do Uncle Sam’s service credit. While it is well known that England’s leanings in the conference are—towards G many, on that vexed questibn of a secret un- derstanding concerning ‘Tongi, Sir Edward maintamed an obstinate ilence. He ex- pressed himself, however,,jn a very kindly manner regarding the favarable impression produced upon himself and others at the conference by tueir American colleagues. Sir Edward—and th was no better judge in the matter—is inclined to think that an- other month will sec the labors of the con- ference ended. He had met Mr. Kasson be- fore at the Congo conference when both of represented their respective countries, r Idward's liorary there lies on a lit- tle spider tuble near the window a large folio ining, in all the glory of gilt edges and icent printing, the minutes of the Congo conference. When the Herald asked Sir iEdward about how often the Samoan con- would sit, he turned to this booi, and after cons aid he believed thut now as at the Congo conf all matters of detail would be referred to a sub-com- mittee. “The Congo confercnce,” he re- rked, “only sat ten times during those ce months. Iive or six sittings, there- will, in all probability, suflice to settle Nothing could have been more eminently gracious than the manner in which Count Bismarck received the guests at the dinner the other day in the pavillion of the foreign oftice, where he mekes his home, When the time for leave taking came and it was a late one, for Count Herbert host who will not be denied, he walked across o large garden with each one of the devart- ing guests, while in the great trees that su round the house the siren voices of great num- bers of nightingales poured forth u volume of sweet melody to enchant the ears of Uncle Sam’s republican representatives. Some peovle have ventured to assert that when the emperor issned his invitation to the Ameri- cans to attend the parade at Potsdam, he did 50 with u view to impressing them with a sense of the military power of the emperor. 1f 80, he certainly succeeded. *Nowhere in the world,” said one of the naval ofiicors at- tached to the commission, ‘‘can yeu sce such absotute precision of movement, such large masscs of men so deftly and skilfully han- died.” PSS FISH IN TH1 SWIM.
