ADDITIONAL LOCAL NEWS.
t'uflo Sum's House ,
There hai boon apparently an at
tempt to mislead the people it
rognrd to the fact , concerning the novs
government building here , and bocitis
THE BEE stated the truth about it , tb
democratic organ of Cmigreaanmn 1'uaoy
anortoth and attempts to still cany the
impression that the work will proceed
just as If the add itioual | * . § 100,000 hail
been secured , instead of being merely
promised. Just why this 8100,000 was
not granted at the last session of con
grcss is not known. It has boon reported
od that it was because Congrossmai
Pusoy was in Now York on private busi
uoss when the bill came up. Ho has nol
taken the pains to deny this report , bul
whatever mny bo the roasor
appropriation was not secured , althougl
favorably reported by the committee.
Conurosamnn Puaoy tells lib constituents
that it la so certain that the next suasion
will grant the additional § 100,000 thai
work will proceed ns though It had al
ready boon granted , despite the following
tolojjrnm :
WASIIIXOTOX , Aug. , 21 An interest
ing question in regard to the constructiot
of public buildings was decided at the
treasury department today , in effect tha
the supervising architect , in preparing
plans and specifications for such buildings
shall bo governed entirely by the lunouu
of money appropriated by congress for
the purpose without regard to future ox
pectatlons.
To show that work will proceed or
plans of an unsecured appropriation Mr.
Puaoy produces the following latter :
Hon. II. 11. M. 1'usoy , Council BluIVs
Sir ; In reply to yours of the Kith
inst. , you ore informed that the superin
tendent of the now public bulding in
our city has boon this day instructed to
proceed with the piling for the founda
tions.
Very respectfully ,
M. E. BELL , Supervising Arthitcct.
V. S. Ho is to excavate according to
the enlarged plans , which you will know
when you aeo it. Yourp , etc. ,
It will bo noticed that this letter does
not say that the work will proceed on
the plan of a 8200,000 building , while
5100,000 only hn boon appropriated.
From Superintendent King , and other
authorities , it appears that the work will
) roceod on plans which are bused simply
) n the § 100,000 already appropriated ,
) ut that if the ether $100,001) ) is secured ,
then instead of a brick building a stone
ono will be put up , and aomo other chan
ges made , but that these changes will not
iQccssitato any change in the founda-
ions , which will bo about all the work
hat can bo done before congress meets
gain. It is to bo hoped that the addi-
ional § 100,000 will bo secured , but it is
lardly fair for Congressman Pusoy
o attempt to make the
moplo ooliovo that ho haa already practi-
: ally secured it , and that all that remains
o bo clones is a mere formality. It is
aoloss for him to attempt to gain politi-
al stronct'i ' for himself , by trying to drag
n as proof something which is no proof.
f Congressman Puaoy has half the
trongih which his friends chim for him ,
10 does not need to resort to such little
eceptions. Lot him como out like a
man and say that ho failed to got the
xtra § 100,000 , but that ho hopes to sue-
oed at the next session , if elected. This
ttompt to snatch laurolsbofore there are
ny laurels , should bo beneath a man of
Ir. Pusoy'a standing.

'hustle- them niggers , " when a middle-
aged man , closely resembling the typical
louthorncr , tuiddenly stopped out from
) ohind the wacka , presented n revolver
vithin a foot of the mato's face , and
cried out : "Throw up your hands or

"It may not bo generally known , " sal
an old operatic impressario ono wh
has grown gray in management
ether day , "that a husband seems to b
an indispensable part of a prima donna's
outfit. Before 1 had boon a manage
long 1 came to the conclusion that i
would bo utterly impossible f r a prima
donna to sing without ono. Thu hus
band is seldom n singer or performer o !
any kind , but is generally a man who re-
; nrda his marriage as a profitable busi
iiois investment which will enable him to
live as a gentleman of elegant leisure for
: ho remainder of his days. His chiel
duty ia , of course , to draw his wife's '
salary and glvo her as small a portion Jo
it as possible. Beyond this , all the
energies of hia being are devoted tc
making the manager's life utterly ant
completely miserable. Ho is the month-
lioco or speaking trumpet through wind
ill the demands and dictates of his wife
are made known , nnd moat of theao do-
nands and dictates originate in lui teem
ing brain.
A
"It is generally stipulated in a prima
donna's contract with her manager tha
ler name shall appear upon all posters
end announcements in typo of a certain
izo. ! If , through neglect on the part of a
Jill writer or the intelligent compositor ,
! ier illustrious name should appear ii
; ypo a size smaller , the first person to
discover It after the bills have boon
mstod up is her husband , Ho says
lothing to the manager but goes straight
: o the prima donna , inflames her against
.ho wholly innocent and unconscious
niprcssano nnd instills iutj her mind a
sctiumo of venganco. Night comes but
ho prima donna , for whom a crowded
101130 is waiting , does not. A quarter of
in hour before the time for raising the
curtain the manager finds that his prima
lonna has not arrived and ho has no one
vho is up to the principal role of the
opera announced for that night to take
ler placo. What ia to bo done ( The
uly thing is for the almost distracted
manager to jump into n carriage , seek the
irlma donna at her hotel and inquire
vhy she haa not presented herself nt the
lieatro. Having learned the reason ho
mat than bog and implore her nlmost
pen his knees , to save him from im-
lunding ruin by not refusing to sing that
light. When ho has impor-
imed for what the husband
liinks a sufficient length of
imo the prima donna shows signs of re-
onting , and at length , after the wretched
lanagor haa promised to to all sorts of
liings to ntono for the neglect of the bill
vritor or thu intelligent compositor , she
onsonts to sing , the result being that
lie curtain goes up nearly an hour lato.
) a nights when his wife does not appear
lie prima donna's husband pervades the
rholo theater , Ho coos behind the
cones , makes love to the chorus girls
nd tries to stir them up to mutiny
gainst the unhappy iinpressario. Ho
iponds his wife's money freely , for you _
enow how easy it ia to bo generous with
thor people's money , and as a result
nearly incapacitates with drink some
male mombur of the cast , lie ondoavora
o find out if any other lady of the com-
mny is using his wifo'a dressing-room ,
md if such is thu case ho poats off to toll
lie prima donna , and the consequence is
hat there IR a repetition on thu follow-
ng night of the incident already do-
icribod. Ho pries about the front of the
louse endeavoring to find out the terms
f the contract between the manager of
lie company and the local manager , and
: ho finds that they aru of such u nature
s to enable the farmer to make any
lonuy ho forthwith incites the prima
onnix to demand such an incrcato of sal-
ry as will absorb thu full amount of
irofit. Ho carries tales to and about the
uaiiagcr and all the members of the com-
any , setting them all by the oars and
cooping everybody in hot water. Besides
10 above named method there are count-
eas other ways In which ho contrives to
lake the inaiiagor'a lifo life a curse nnd
o cause him to wish every day that head
ad never boon born. Ono season as
lanagcr of an opera company , headed by
prima donna with a good live husband ,

"There is scarcely n primn donna of
ny great reputation now boforu the
ublic that in not or has not been sup-
lied with a husband. Indeed , 1 can
link of only two exceptions to this rule ,
tlario Van Xandt and Clara Louise Jvul-
ogg. The former is still very young and
ins atill many years before hpr in which
o make a marital choice , while all the
owspapors in thu country have boon

ho past fifteen or twenty years. The

"Of the noted prima donnaa of the
ircaont day who have permitted the mat-
imonial noose to bu adjusted about their
air nocks , Patti may bu mentioned first
f all , The only reason that can bo ua-
ignod for her marriage to the Marquis
u Caux is a desire on her part , uhared
y many of our free and independent
Vtnurican citi/.ans to wear a title. The
erms upon which that worthy nobleman
consented to allow Madame Patti to be
come a Marquise , were stipulated in the
marriauo contract to bo the payment by
her of all his debts , and the payment to
him of B largo pur centago of her salary
throughout this life. Hu was , par ox
rellonco , the meddling , mischief making
huaband I have described ; but nut con
tent with driving to the verge of distrac
tion the managers who engaged la diva
ho found time to make her wretched also.
Consequently she soon got rid of him and
consoled herself with Nicolini in a sort
of loft-handodmorganatic , or professional
marriage , which haa proved very happy.
