electric light put into the hall. In putting
in this last light the city light was cut
out. UCSWICK seeing that the city light
was not burning , concluded it was Hiis
duty to turn the switch and set it into a
blaze. He accordingly did .so , and as the
light did nol Hash up , lie turned it the
other way. Still no glimmer. Then lie
turned it the other way again. While ex
perimenting with it , und getting no sat
isfactory results , some of the army came
rushing out of the. hall and complained
to him thai someone was fooling with
the electric light , and wanting the mis
creant arrested. Tim ciowd in the hall
had been left in darkness two or three
times. Ho started oil' to hunt up the fol
low who hud been turning oft' the light ,

Amusement circles hero were on the
tip-toe of expectation to see and hear
Miss Adelaide Moore , the charming
young English actress. Her praises have
been sounded far and near , and it was
no easy task to meet the high expecta
tions of the audience which gathered in
Dohany's opera house last evening. That
the expectations wore more than real
ized was c\idcnced by the appreciative
applause and enthusiastic u raise given
by a Council Bin Us audience , which has
the reputation , and justly , of being cold
and timid in expressing its admiration of
artistic merit.
"Lady of Lyons , " with such a charm
ing actress as Miss Adelaide Moore , is
indeed a treat for any audience. She
captivated all by her beauty of face and
form , her grace of movement but beauty
was adorned evidently by those intellec
tual graces which make really the artist.
Her career has been brilliant , for in a
brief time she has made for herself a
name and a fame far in advance of mosl
who have toiled for weary years. Unlike
some who have suddenly gained favor ,
she is not a nieio imitator of wonderful
cleverness in portraying a conception
formed Dy some more thoughtful artist.
Shu so thoroughly puts her&clf into the
character as grasped in its completeness
by her own intellectual effort , that Miss
Moore is wholly lost in "The Lady of
Lyons.1 ,
'Miss Adelaide Moore is therefore won
derfully gifted. A richer endowment of
personal beauty , of physical grace , is
seldom seen , but she is not a mere beauty.
She is an intellectual wonder as wcil ,
and her mental strength , without which
there can be no true acting , coupled with
her charming ways , accounts somewhat
for the rapid strides made in her profes
sion , by. which she has been already con
ceded a' place with those whose names
are not to bo forgotten.
The company supporting her is excel
lent , and while she is the crowning at-
Iracliou , there is bv no means any de
traction from the enjoyment of the even-
incr bv an infeiiority in the support.
To-night "Homeo anil Juliet" will be
given. This alternoon "Pygmalion and
lialatea. " Thus the people of Council
Bluffs and vicinity are given a most ex
cellent oppoi Utility of seeing this charm
ing aotruss in dilHtrcnt roles.

Mn.for Anderson Declared In Error.
During the recent congressional cam
paign , and in fact ever since Major An
ders on dropped out of the board of rail
way commissioners , he and his friends
have made great capital about his record
as a commissioner. One of the cases
na > that of the state VH the Chicago &
Northwestern railroad company. It is
an important case , as it involves critical
questions Jt has at last been decided
by the supreme court , the opinion being
given by Justice Heed of this city. The
summary of the case and opinion is as
follows :
This is the famous case of HIP railroad
commissioners , involving the question of
the right of the commission to regulate
inter-Pluto commerce. In February , 1881 ,
one Barber delivered to the Northwest-
nrn railroad at Morrison , 111. , jv buggy ,
for shipment lo ( Hidden , la , which was
none , and complaint was made to tlm
railroad commission about the chaigcs of
the company. The commission investi
gated the facts and found that the rate
per mile charged for this shipment was
greater than the company's local freight
rates in either Iowa or Illinois , which
they held to bo unjust. The principal
question for the commission to decidu
was Its right to control or regulate inter
state commerce , of which this was a fair
sample. It will bo remembered that this
was ucar the close of Major Andei son's
term us commissioner , and he wrote
out the opinion of tlio commission.
asserting that the commission had juris'
diction in tlm case. Thn opinion closed
with the pere.mptor.y order to the North
western road to rearrance their intur-.itu.to
tariff rates to correspond with the Iowa
rates. The minority of the commission
filed a dissenting opinion , taking the
ground that they had not this right. The
.Northwestern road refused to comply
with the order of the commission and
this suit was commenced to compel obn-
diunco. Before the trial was aeachcd.
however , the change in the make-up of
the commission converted the minority
into the majority and vice versa , and the
personal views of the commission then
would have been for the dismissal of the
suit. But the order had gone out
on the official word of the commis
sion and they prosecuted the suit. They
were beaten in the circuit court uud ap
pealed to the supreme court. The lower
court is sustained , ami the action of the
commission in Issuing the order against
the Northwestern rend instructing it to
charge the tariff on Intcr-statc commerce
Is decided null. The limits of power in
the commission arc discussed , and it is
shown that such assumed power would be
in violation of the coiiMitntlou of the
United States. The decision is al o based
upon a recent iwco taken to the * United
States supreme court where this question
was decided. Judge Beck writes a sup
plemental opinion , in which ho concurs
with the majority of the supreme court ,
but deplores the fact that this is made
necessary by the ruling of the federal
supreme court.

The following we liiul in the Blair ,

good work on the Pilot. Coming from
the "original Kralc , " the stand ho takes
in defense of progressive cuchro and
kindred games will bo appreciated by
those of his numerous friends who know ,
as a matter of fact , that Clark
does not know how to play
a single game of cards , and
scarcely knows the neo when he sees it ,
and never played a game ot profes
sional euchre in his life. In his article he
says :
We Iliul the following rcfeicnce ton ser

linir. It mattered nufwlicther folks played

whether they played for position , lor such

In thusrevlving the fanatical and fossilized

A VAC/SNT THRONE FOR RENT.
Hill Xye Politely Declines the Job of
KiiiK or liulgiirli.
Bill Nye has furnished the Now York
World the following copy of a cable
despatch just forwarded to the allied
powers of Europe :
SUITIIV : : KumnssT , IIr ox , AVis. ,
Nov. 25. To the Allied Powers , care
Lord Salisbury.
IIINTIEMKK : Your favor of recent date
regarding my acceptance of the Bulgarian
throne , which is now vacant and for rent ,
in which note you tender me the use of
said throne for one year , with the privi
lege of three , is at lund. You also state
that the allied powers are nol favorable
to Prince Nicholas and that yon would
all prefer a dark horse. Looking over
the entire list of obscure men , it would
seem that you have been unable to ti.v
upon a man who has made a better show
ing in this line than 1 have.
While I thank you for this kind oiler of
a throne that has , as yon state , be.cii
newly refitted and refurnished through
out , 1 must decline for reasons which 1
will try to give in my own rough , un
polished way.
Jn the lirst place I read in the dis
patches to-day that Knssiii is mobili/.ing
her troops , and J do not want anvthing
lo do with a country that will treat its
soldiers in thai way. Troops have cer
tain rights : is well as those who have
sought the pleasanlcr walks of peace.
This is not all. J do not narc to enter
into a & ( | iiabblo in which I am not inter
ested. Neither do 1 care lo go to .Bul
garia in tlm capacity of a'carpet-bag
monarch from the ten-cent counter ,
wearing a boiler-iron overcoat by day
ami a stab-proof corset at night , I have
always been in favoi of Bulgaria's selec
tion of a monarch viva voce or vex pop-
nil , whichever you Ihlnk would look best
in print.
1 hate to sea a monarch in hot water all
the time ami threatening to abdicate.
Supposing ho docs abdicate , what good
will that do , when he leaves a widow
with nothing but a second-hand throne
and a crown two si/.es too small for his
successor ? J have always said , and I
still say , that nothing can be more piti
ful than the sight of a lovely queen
whoso husband , in a wild fron/v of re
morse , has abdicated himself. Nothing ,
1 repeat , can be sadder than this picture
of a deserted quean , lefl high and dry ,
without meaiiH , forced at last to go to the
pawnbroker. * with a little plated , llutcd
crown with rabbit-skin ear tabs on it !
We am prone to believe that a mon
arch has nothing to do but issue a ukase
or mandamus ami that tie will then have
all the funds ho wants ; but such Is nol
the case. Lots of our most successful
moiiarchs are liable to be overtaken any
year by a Jong , cold winter , ami found as
late as Christmas reigning in their sum
mer sceptres.
1 am inclined also to hesitate about
accepting the Bulgarian throne for an
other reason J do not earn to bo deposed
when I want to bo doing something else.
1 have had my deposition taken suvcral
times and it did not look like mo either
tune.
Ijthink that yon moiiarchs ought to
land by each other more. If you would
or ui a society of free and indnpcmlent
monarch ) ; thcro in Europe , where you
ure so plenty , yon could have a good
time and every little while you could
raisn your salaries if you worked it right.
Now you pull and haul each other nil
the time and koo yourselves in hot water
day and uight. That's no way for a dyn
asty any more than any one elso. It im
pairs your usefulness and tills our telegraphic -
graphic columns full of names that wo
cannot pronounce. Every little'while we
have to pay the operator jit this mid of
tbe cable $10 for wilting in a rapid , Hewing -
ing band that "meuubile \ linesia will
continue lo disregard the acts ot the so-
branjc.1'
Why should a great country like Russia
go about trying to make trouble to a low-
priced Sobranjo * I think tlmt a closer
alliance of crowned heads , whoso inter
ests arc identical , would relieve the mo
notony of many it long , tedious reign. If
1 were to accept the throne of Bulgaria ,
which is not llkoly , so long as my good
right arm can jerk a llucnt cross-cut saw
in the English tongue , 1 would form a
syndicate of monarch ? , with grips , pass
words , explanations and signals ; every
sceptre would have a contralto whistle in
the bull end which could be used as a
sign of dlslrc s , while the other end
could have a cork in It , and then steering
a tottering dynasty down through the
dim vista of crumbling centuries would
not bo PO irksome as it now Is.
As il is now , three or four allied powers
ask a man to leave his business and squat
cold , hard throne for a mere pittance ,
and then just as he begins to let his
whiskers grow and learns to dodge a big
porcelain bomb those same allied powers
jump on top of him all spraddled out and
ask him for his deposition. That is no
way to treat an amateur monarch who
is trying to do right.
You can see that unless you .stand by
each other the thrones If Kuropo will
soon be empty and every | 2 a dav hotel
in America will have an heir apparently
to the throne for a head-water , with a
coronet put on his clothes with a rubber
stamp and a loaded sceptre up his
sleeve.
If you want to rear your children to
love and respect the monarchy indu try
you must afford them bolter protection.
1 say this as a man who may not live to
bq over one hundred years of ago , and
with my feel lluis settling into the boggy
shores of limn , let mo beg of you ,
moiiarchs and inonarclies&c , lo
make your calling an hon
orable one. Teach your chil
dren and Iheir children lo respect the
uusiness by which their parents earned
their bread. Show them that Itis honor
able to empire a country if they do it
right. Tcacli them that .to do nghl is
better than lo fraudulently turn a jack
from the bottom of the pack. Teach
them thai it is better to bo a popular
straight ont-and-oul paitisan king who is
sincere about it than to be a mugwump
monarch who dares not leave his throne
night or day for fear that somebodv will
pul a number of bombs under it or ciiti-
else him in the papers.
1 would like to empire. Bulgaria this
winter lirst rate if I could get bacif in
time to remove the counterpane from my
asparagus bed , bill it would hardly pay
me to do so. If Nicholas will do it , anil
do il at living rates , I would tell him to
go ahead.
If you furnish reigning tools and palace
ho ought to do it at ? 1.200 a year , or sa3 *
$1,000 and lind himself. Yours sincerely.
