The distribution takes place at niffhtfalL The first thuijf to provide for is the supply of the honorary free list, namely, the Emperor and two or three of his chief Ministers, mclud-inatheheadof the Police Department. Copies are forwarded to these through the post, with a manuscript intimation on the margin of the paper that the recipients will be done for at the first convenient opportunity. The letters are posted and the regular distribution begins.

A copy is left with every dead wall, where it may remain all night, with the chance of being read by the moujiks as they are jroin? to their labor in the early dawn. This part of the undertaking involves considerable risk and danger. Every dead wall in St. Petersburg is guarded Just now, not only by the police but by watchful house-porters, who are ordered to stand outside their doors and keep awake all night Still the house-porters cannot look two ways at once, and while they are looking one way the riinble stall may contrive to post up a copy the other.

The full list of entries for the stakes to be trotted at the July meeting in this city was given in yesterday's Tribune, the number of nom inations in the eleven events footing up the handsome total of 151, divided as follows: Free-to-nll ft anion stake. 5 Stake for 2:27 class 21 Pacing stake 4 Stake for 2:40 class 26 Stake for 2:30 stallions 13 Stake for 2:23 class. 10 Stake for 2:34 class.

17 Stake for 2:19 5 Stake for 2:21 class 9 Stake for 2:30 class. 23 Stake for 2:25 class. 15 Total J5I The total amount of the stakes and added money, provided all the horses that are entered started, would be between $29,000 and $30,000, but as there will be numerous declarations by those who think they have no chance to win and prefer paying tbe forfeit, this amount will of course be reduced somewhat. But even when an exceedingly liberal estimate is made of the non-starters, the fact still remains prominent that the winners at Chicago will carry away about as much as they could by winning the purses offered for their classes at any three other meetings in the country. In fact, the success of the new departure has been simply phenomenal, and that trotting associations in other large cities will hereafter be forced to follow the plan adopted here, there is scarcely a doubt.

The following table, which was prepared by a gentleman entirely competentto Judge such matters, shows at a glance what tbe winners of first, second, and third moneys at Chicago may expect in the way of winnings: jBegro soon found and brought to her. She re-muutited him to go home with her. He did so, and when she reached the door she knocked. Her husband opened the door, but fainted when he saw. her, thinking it waa his dead wife's ghost.

To the Editor ef The Chicago Tribune. Chicago, May 7. To what oity official or department should a citizen appeal for improvement in the condition of the Washington street tunnel? As it now is, it is dark, dirty, and tbe wood Jand stone pavement very bad, littered with old clothes and waste paper. Timid people, or people not familiar with horses, avoid the tunnel as it now is. If cleaned, lighted, and policed, the half million, more or less, that It cost would not be entirely lost.

West Sios. Department of Public Works. Defacing Coin. To th Editor of The Chicago Tribune. Chicago, May 8.

The practice of mutilating and defacing coin of all denominations by various devices, either from motives of malicious mischief or fraud, has of late assumed such widespread dimensions as to cause a great deal of annoyance to the public at large, rendering it a nuisance and a National disgrace, reflecting' very discreditably upon the character of the American people and their institutions, and should therefore be most effectually stopped by a strict law making it a misdemeanor to. mutilate, deface, or alter any United Siates coin or other currency, or to circulate any coin or currency thus mutilated or defaced, a conviction therefor to be punishable by heavy fines or im prisonment, as in cases of counterfeiting. Such a law would not fail to diminish very Bhortly this malicious practice, which seems to be increasing in the absence of such measures. S. VlOTOB.

Letter from John W. Nor Is, To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune. Chicago, May 8. It was not my Intention to notice by any newspaper reply the scandalous and false statements and Imputations published In your paper of April 25 as an abstract of a cross-bill purporting to be filed by one W. H.

Hopkins against his wife, but many of my friends have urged that I ought not to allow such a matter to pass In silence, until the slow administration of the courts shall demonstrate the falsehood and malice thereof. I therefore briefly say that each and every statement in the said cross-bill charging any improper eonduct whatever of Mrs. H. with myself are utterly false, and Hopkins and the persons who Instigated bim to sign the bill, I fully believe, made the statements knowing them to be false, and seeking in a scandalous and malicious manner to make a cowardly attack upon me under the protecting" shadow of a proceeding in court. The statemant that is put into the mouth of Hopkins (who was absent from the city for a year previous to my late wife's death, and who, therefore, could have known nothing of the matter of his own knowledge) that my wife died of a broken heart is entirely false, as it can be proved by hosts of witnesses tbat she died of cancer, which defied the best medical skill, and which was from its inception considered incurable by such eminent physicians as Dr.

R. X. Iham, her regular medical attendant. Prof. Andrews, Dr.

N. 8. Davis, Dr. Gunn, and others, and no one will allege otherwise, unless it be with intent maliciously to injure me thereby. The statement that a bouse was fitted up by me for Mrs.

H. Is also without any truth whatever. I respectfully ask of all who may have read these falsehoods to withhold their opinions until the proof of the false and malicious character and purpose of them shall be proven and developed, as It will be in due time. John W. Norris.

A NIHILIST NEWSPAPER. The 10x3 Sheet that a Staff of One Stu dent Write, Prints, and. Distributes. SU Petersburg Correspondence Mancheeter Guardian. I have just seen one of the greatest typo graphical curiosities in the world a Russian revolutionary paper.

It measures about three inches by ten, and is printed on one side of a single sheet It bears the imposing title of The Will of the People. This little sheet took such possession of me that I could not rest until I learned more about it I made inquiries in the proper quarter, and obtained a most interesting rev elation of the whole "inwardness" of one of these Russian revolutionary papers which so perplex the police. The office of a Russian revolutionary journal is usually a little back room in a very big house. The room must be so insignificant that it is, as It were, lost in the house, and a policeman would hardly think of looking into it in a general search. It bears on the door an humble business an nouncement to the effect that artificial- flowermaking or some such harmless handi craft is carried on inside.

The room is scantily furnished, and the staff of th journal is just one small, unwholesome-looking ex-student who has been turned out of colleee for insubordination and who is now living by his wits on pawning and and a small allowance from a revolutionary centre. The staff has long, uncombed greasy nair aim a. iitc wuicn is rareiy wasnea with anytning but its own tears. It wears a Inn cloak, or wrapraseal, lined with what was once fur, but is now merely a bald surface of hide, and the only glimpse or hint you can get of nether garments is in certain frayed ends of trousers peeuins out from below. Within this wraprascalis the all in all of a revolutionary ioural, its soul and spirit and its material life.

When the cloak moves, the staff and the type, the pen and paper, tne ideas, the principles and the policy all go with it Ii is a triumnh of t.hA HJtof packing. It is still rather inaccurate, tn say that the staff is a pure individuality. It is a dual one. A woman shares the wretched room, and the labors of the wretched enterprise. She, too, has been a student, and she is still young.

She studied medicine, perhaps at Zurich or at Paris, served as "Oueen's messenger" between the home centres and the leaders abroad, until the police made Russia too hot to hold her in her own name. To the other half of the staff she is devoted heart and soul, and through him to his hobbv tne universal revolution. She is a voluntary outcast from a respectaDie ianiiiy, and she would as cheerfully lay down her life as any petroleuse of Paris for her creed. The journal is not a dailv imirnal. hut what may be called an intermittent one.

It comes out when it can. The first business is to collect material. For this Duronse th reporting staff, after a scanty meal on the cold remains of last niarht's sunner. wrans itself in its cloak and sallies out to watch public -events. It is irresistibly at tracted toy a Sort Of -maenetiA inaHnft to Dass tlapR where "thprp maw Un body to shoot at.

Warde will play the leading role, Mark LtawtLin. Miss Diekv Uncard will assume that Of Uctt'j, and Frank Pierce will enact the character of UieK cor ley. Bartley Campbell and wife, who nave been in the city since Fridav, will leave ror tne r.ai. morrow. Mr.

Campbell sails for England some time in June to superintend the production of some of bis plays. Samuel Kayzer, who for the past three or four years haa occupied a prominent position. iu uo West as a dramatic instructor, has recently fitted up elaborate quarters with stage appurtenances in the Central Music-Hail structure. This evening the German performances at McVicker's wiU be for the benefit of Miss A. Spahn.

Schiller's Robbers will be played, and Mr. Emil Hochster wiU act the role of Uutrles de Moor. Mr. Hochster announces this as bis last appearance on the stage. The Treasurer of the Academy of Music, Mr.

John Muir, will take his annual benefit to-day, and no doubt the receipts will be gratifying. His friends have come up as usual and have made up a most attractive program. Conspicuous among thote who wili take part is Miss Carrie Swain, who has won so many admirers by her efforts at Haverly's during the past two weeks. Mr. George W.

Thompson will appear in his Yacup," Miss Kate Howard will sing seriocomic songs, and Little Mac, the Coghill W. M. Duggan, Zeph Le Petrie, Freeman and Wilson, Harry Jennings, Edward Clarenoe, and others wili participate. Coupe's circus will pitch its tent on the lake front and exhibit its wonders ou Monday afternoon. The managers appear to lay particular emphasis in their numerous posters upon the fact that thev have an unusually magnificent collection of Broncho horses.

These horses, we are assured, can do everything but speak. They ean do anything and everything from seven-up to a Scotch reel. There is a large menagerie in connection with the show, anv number of acrobats, clowns, daring male and female riders, and one of the star features of the whole thing is a new electric light by which the tents are illuminated in the evening. Oaken Hearts is underlined for Hooley's on Mouday night. There is some talk of an injunction restraining its production.

Yesterday telegrams were flying tetween Mr. Heme, the owner of Hearts of Oak," and his lawyer on the subject, and if there Is a legal possibility of stopping the performance they intend doing so. To make matters more interesting, it is rumored that Barney Macauley, of Louisville, intends doing something or other. Mr. DalzieL, we understand, had contracted with him for the week beginning to-morrow, but, finding that he could get an opening at Hooley's, canceled the contract with Macauley without a word, naturally making The Messenger from Jarvis Section" very wrothy.

It has been deflnitly settled that the Tom Keene season will be opened at the Chestnut-street Theatre, Philadelphia, on Sept. 10. The company will play there two weeks, and will then appear at Hamlin's New Theatre in this city on Oct. 4 From the paragraphs flying around the country one would suppose that Mr. Hayden waa trying to get up a corner in actors and actresses next season.

We have authority for stating that the only engagements made so far are with Mr. Frazier Coulter, Miss Henrietta Vaders, Miss Grace Both, and Mr. Charles Webb. The energetic Hayden has a great number in hia mind's eye, but he wants a strong troupe and he is going about the business cautiously. There will be eighteen people in the company, and the pieces will be produced under the supervision of Mr.

Charles Webb. The last performance of "Fairfax was given at McVicker's Theatre last night, in which Mrs. Agnes Booth and Miss Sydney Cowell have won tbe admiration of play-goers. Gilbert's "Engaged will be presented to-morrow evening with the following cast: Belinda Trefterne, Agnes Booth; Minnie (Sym person's daughter). Miss Marie Chester; Mr.

Maefarlane (a lowland widow), Mrs. G. H.Gilbert Magie (her daughter, a lowland lassie), Miss Sydney Cowell; Parker (Minnie's Miss Nellie Whiting; Ctievoit Hill ia youug man of Mr. James Lewis; Belvawney (his friend). Mr.

J. Ferguson. When the piece was produced at the New York Park Theatre, Agnes Booth achieved a great popular success in the role of Belinda, and won most marked consid Vation not only from the critics, but from the gifted author himself, who testified his appreciation of her rendition in the following note: "Hoffman House, Nkw York, Dec. 20, 1879. Dear Mrs.

Booth; I must write to tell you how delighted I was with your performance of Belinda lust Monday. Tbe conception of the part is excellent and the execution, if I may be allowed to say so, most artistic With many thanks, 1 am very truly yours, S. Gilbert." PROFESSIONAL. DIRECTORY.

Whenever a new speaker came on the stand this man bawled out: "Mr. Henry! Henryl Henry! I call for Mr. Henry!" After several interruptions of this kind at each speech, a young man ascended the platform and was soon airing bis eloquence iu magnificent style, when the same an as before was heard bawling out at tbe top of his voice: "Mr.

Henryl Henry! nenrv! I call for Mr. Henry to make a speech!" The Chairman arose and remarked that it would oblige the audience if the gentleman would refrain from further calling for Mr. Henry, as that gentleman was now speaking. "Is that Mr. Henry?" said the disturber of the meeting.

Hamlin's New Theatre-Contemplated Changes.

Novelties for Next Week at Our Local Houses. Where the Large and Small Professional Fish Will Swim the Coming Week. "SXAP" MANAGERS. Opportunity has often been offered for severo comment upon the horde of "snap" managers, utterly unprincipled and irresponsible, who appear to make this city their headquarters. Warnings bare often been riven, but published warnings, and even practical experience, appears to have very little effect in diminishing the number of victims continually falling: into the hands of theso sharks.

These managerial "fakirs." with the aid of so-called dramatio agent, may be said to entirely consume their time in organizing and disbanding small troupes, In swindling boU'l-keepers when they oan, and in never doaling honorably with any one if they can possibly succeed in dealing crookedly. Without a dollar, except, perhaps, the fare to the first show town, these swindlers, under false pretenses, inveigle the often unsuspecting people to enter tneir "snaps." If business proves good, then the hotel bills are paid if the landlord is sharp enough and the tribe reach the next town. If not, then the manager seeks the seclusion the railroad grants, the baggage of the unfortunate people is seized by the creditors, and, if the strolling players should not be blessed with a pocketbook, they are left to leisurely count the railroad ties lying between the stranding-point and their homes. These managers, of course, are quite as un-scrupulous in regard to their appropriation of stolen MSS plays as they are in swindling the people who enter into engagement with them. We know several who skirmish In and around Chicago playing such pieces as The Banker's Daughter," "My Partner," "The Danitea," Indeed, as soon as a play makes a hit anywhere these men, through Chicago agencies of New York establishments, find no difficulty In securing a copy for a few dollars.

Of course these thieves rarely venture into the larger cities with their stolen wares, but they generally organize here and proceed to infest the small towns of Illinois and ad-Joining Btates, trusting that the country people will be induced to go and see plays whose popularity may have become national, the rustics imaginitig that the fly-by-night manageris not a llv-by-night individual, but the countrymen having been so assured by the posters he is tb man who originally produced the pieo in New York or some Eastern city. The law can scarcely reach them; even if it could, the process would be a tedious, vexatious, and an expensive one for any manager to in-duliro in. A few years ago in this city McKee Kunkin made a hue and cry over the theft of a copy of "The Danitea," and with the aid of detectives discovered on the West Side a truukful of MSS. plays. He exposed to a certain extent the fellows who traded in this stolen property and threatened to punish them if he could find law to do so.

But the threHt came to naught, the suit fell through, the thievery went on the same as now nourishes as formerly. The latest case of "snap" management that has come uuder our observation is that of Prank K. Wallace, who, some three weeks ago, got a troupe together to skirmish around the rural district with "Joshua Whitcomb." It is needless to say that the piece was stolen. The thief, Frank K. Wallace, was to plav Den Thompson's part.

L'pon the strength of his representations be engaged Georgo Pike, W. H. Stewart, J. J. Pirns.

Louis Meredith, Miss Ada Lawrence Miss Minnie Burleigh. Mr. and Mrs. Davis, and Miss Virginia Richmond. At the end of a week they returned, but no salaries were paid.

In the hope of receiving the money duo most of them started out again. At Soutn Bend, where they filled an engagement of two nights, they remained for Rome reason or other five dav, and wbeu they did try to move it wan discovered that the manager's funds were exhausted. Hotel Mils were due and the landlord then casbis little eye upon the baggage of the troupe He passed the Saratoga, in the shape of acham- minus basket, of one of the ladies, with disdain; xjked with disgust upon one gentleman's wearing gear confined within the limits of a blacking-box; and came to the trunk of Miss Minnie lSurlcierh. lie levied upon that. Then Mr.

Prioe, of the South Bend Theatre, touched with compilation, gave the troupe a lift to the next town, Mishawaka, where it is said the star's performance so outraged the taste of the esthetic villagers that he was in danger of lvneh-ljig. They drew mighty little here, and Mr. Pi ice airain came to the rescue. They reached Elkhart, but, the Mishawakan gossip bad preceded them, and the reception was frigid. They Ft rug-fled on until the good nature of Air.

Price was exhausted. Thev struck a little money, and as far as the wealth would go determined to return. In the meantime Miss Minnie Burleigh hnd been taken sick, and the generous Prank Wallace gave her a 6o-cent ticket to South Bend, when the party returned to tne city. The girl was left at Bend, from which point she madn her friends acquainted with her position and they came to her rescue. It ia needless to say that no salaries have been paid, and that none are ever likely to be paid.

HAMLrX'S NEW TIXEATRE. Architect Addler, of this city, has completed (tie platis for the reconstruction of Hamlin's Theatre, on Clark street, and on Monday mom-aig the work will be commenced and will be jmshed toward completion as speedily as possible. Mr. Addler was the architect of the new Central Music-Hail, and in the plans for the new louse many of the ideas seen In that charming edifice have been incorporated, and some of them have been improved upon. The seating capacity will be increased to l.flOO.

The auditorium will on each side be made seven feet wider than at present, and the roof will oe elevated at the highest point fourteen feet. Another gallery will be erected. The shape of tho house will be entirely changed. The stage will be elevated slightly. The proscenium will be, if erected as designed, the finest in the city.

There will probably be eight boxes, and these boxes will not be made, as in most houses, to look at, but wdl be so constructed as to be of use. Instead of being like kennels set way back, they will be brought forward that a view of the entire stage can be secured, and the drapery will be so arranged as to screen the occupants from the observation of the audience should those occupants desire privacy. Then the front of the house will be entirely changed. The wide lobby now running from the auditorium to the street will be redui-ed nearly one-half, thus affording space for a foyer similar to that in the new (Neutral Hall. It will be some 25x45 feet.

From it a staircase seven feet in width will run to the first gallery. Prom each angle of the building, as in the Music-Hail, a stairway will run from the main floor to the top of the building, thus affording uuusual facilities for exit in case of fire. In the design a novel system of cloak, retiring, and smoking rooms is contemplated, and the upnolstery and uecorative work will be of a very lavish description. The chairs will be similar in shape to those in the Central Hail, and the aisles will be much wider than those of any theatre in town. The estimated cost of ail this is but the owners of the building say that should any alteration in tbe present plan be needed to make tbe house more complete they will not hesitate to expend the sum necessarv.

In regard to the stage, tbe scenery will be entirely new. Probably It will lie painted by Voeghtlin. They are now negotiating for his services. Mr. Hamlia says that be will have the best corps of officers around him money can secure, and that he will Inaugurate a new policy of doing business.

He purposes playing only first-class stars and combinations, and, recognizing the difficulty to secure, a continuous supply of really good attractions, he will select only the best, and, when be Junuot get those, he will close his house. Early ji September the new theatre will be opened, tut the opening card has not yet been named. LOCAL NOTES. The warm weather during tbe past week haa thinned the theatres. An organization known as The Sural Boosters follows "Nip and Tpjfk at tbe Olympic.

Frank Mayo will appear at Haverly's on Monday. Miss Laura Don will play the leading female role. John Norton, of St. Louis, says the dramatic season now drawing to a close haa been tbe best in fifteen years In that city. Henry L.

Slayton, ot this city, has engaged the New York Criterion Comedy Company for 150 nlghta, commencing Aug. 23, 18S0. Mr. Fred Maeder will be the star at the Hal-ted-treet Opera-House the coming week. He appears as flash in Tbe Lightning Detective." To-night the Blaisdell-Dillon combination will dose their engagement at Hooley's.

For a week Ihe company will rest. Then they will travel through Wisconsin. Early in July the Beason will cud. Albert Harman, who ia said to be a sort of Australian Havcrly, will reach San Francisco In tho next steamer. He comes to uuiwunir In search, of novelties.

Unchanged by tiaie ah 1 thankfully Thy hand once more in mine I hold. Faithful and true through storm and calm, Thy warm and Jeyous greeting thrills. As, after close and sultry day. The burning cheeks a cool breeze fills. With throbbing breasts we sit and speak Of past and present joy and care.

While tender thoughts their story tell Upon thy tempting red lips fair. Thy merry laughter, eager words, The blood send coursing through each vein, As when, upon moon-lit night In cold December's icy reign. From warm and drowsy fire-side, One ventures to the great bouse-door, The sharp wind strikes the tingling nerves. And vaulting visions with it soar. Thy quickened breathing, light'ning eyes, Proclaim thy burning passions free: Ah 1 lovely is a pretty word When said of s'nch an one as thee 1 -Through sparkling.

lesta and repartees Subdued and gmiiit thoughts make way. As when, through gay and noisy streets, A funeral train, in Death' 8 array, Its dreaded serpent line extends, While men bow down their heads, and feel That homely, agonizing grief Which only time and love can heaL A modest, shrinking blush, called forth By mention of thy kindly deeds, Rests crimsoning upon thy cheek A rose sprung up from Heavenly seeds: As when, upon a Summer-morn, The bright sun streaming through tne hall. Fills with a ruddy, peaceful glow Some dark room nestled in the wall. Thy features rich, impassioned play Stirs up the mind to nobler thought Awakes ambition long asleep Starts daa.ling dreams of honors wrought. Thy generous friendship, all unbought, Iu poverty or wealth the same.

Thaws through the ice-bound love of man. And fans its stifled, dying flame. Thy woman's force to rule or serve; To spurn, lead on, and fascinate, God-given, strong, yet merciful. Thy gracious acts extenuate. Thy deeds are famous, and thy skill Is not the shallow Jugglery Of gifted hands, but plainly bears Tbe impress of tbe soul.

Ah me 1 Thou hadst no need of mighty works -To show thy worth-to mankind's race; Great in the goodness of thy heart, God wrote His greatness on thy faoe. Thy priceless love, who shall win? who can make thy queenly heart Flutter against its prison-walls, Trembling and pleading to depart? Thy fiery nature, once aroused, Must love with genius' wondrous power, Unswerving, passionate, and blind, Simple and trusting as a flower. And if, from thy pure heart's choice, Some cruel Judgment thee should wean. How sad that that so faithful heart Should blossom, live, and die unseen. Dear childhood's friend, too soon at last Thy hand in farewell I must clasp Heaven irrant we meet airain on Karth Heaven grant we meet with friendship's grasp.

The barber came in a cab and was detained in the outer rooms until ne sent word that he could stay no longer. He was then admitted, and performed the service for which he charged bis lordshin more tnan a dollar. He complained at the price as outrageous, and was answered tbat "a hansom cab had been waiting outside for an hour." So he was paia, but next aay on being sent for, said, "I iro. The messenger could hardly believe his ears, and repeated his message, to which he got the same answer. Horror-stricken.

A Remarkable Story of Suspended Ani mation, Burial, and Reaurreetion.

iJRANKL.lNTOjr. X. fl Mnv 6. The following remarkable story was published, in the local paper or this place this evening: Mrs. Martha Smith, of Cbatuain, reports a remarkable case of suspended animation, and resurrection of a person a married lady of that county, who possessed a gold watch and finger-rings, which she often expressed a desire tu have buried with ber whenever she was dead.

Finally she was taken-ill, and lite seemed to gradually ebb. away until her attending physkiian pronounced it extinct. At her burial her previously expressed desire was complied with, and the second night after her interment a white man and negro went to the grave and exhumed her for the purpose of obtujnirtg her Jewelry. As they took tbe lid off the coffin, and began pulling onf the ring from her finger, she raised up. At this both men took fright and ran aray.
