hA.W We have received a co mmunica-
ton relating to the poisoning of geese
in Christian street. The article states
that certain women 'grudging neigh
bors"- has for year past, been en-
gagged in administering poison to the
geese in that section, and that great
many have died in consequence
Justice can obtain proper redress by
making complaint before Lieutenant
Furman, which is the only remedy"
that we can advise.

PRIZE WRESTLING MATCH BRO
KEN UP.

A party of some three hundred men
and boys assembled at Arnold's Hall
last evening to witness a grand wrest-
ling match between two men named
Taylor and Johnson, haiiing from New
York and Harrisburg. Chief Keron got
wind of the affair, and fastened to the
Hall but was unable to gain admit
tance-the doors being carefully lock-
ed and guarded. The Chief passed to
the rear of the building, up a narrow
flight of stairs, to the room which con-
tanned the party. With bound, he
sprang on the stage, greatly to the
amazement of those present, who sud-
denly left without caring to wait to
have the admittance fee of fifty cents,
returned to them.
The Chief in few plain words in
formed the party" that the " show"
could proceed no further. $500 side
were the stakes to be contended for.
One round had been fought before the
arrival of the Chief.
We understand that man named
Cartwright residing at the Port, was
the leading spirit, in fact the referee,
and that it was through him that the
disgraceful exhibition was given in this
city. Chief Keron deserves credit for
the manner in which he broke up this
nice little arrangement

Bsas' The exhibition of the fine or
gan just completed for the Second
Presbyterian Church at Railway, took
place last evening, and was attended
by large and highly appreciative au-
dience. Mr. George W. Morgan per-
formed several solos upon the instru-
ment in his usual mastery manner,
among which were the "Otfertoire in
G" by Wely :; "Grand Introduction
and Fugue in D." by Hesse Overture
to civilian Tell" and Overture to
Ella Gazza Ladra," besides two or
three "Improvisations," which gave
the audience an opportunity to observe
the various effects that could be pro-
duced.
The vocal part of the programme
was admirably sustained by Mr.. W. J.
Hill, Tenor, and Miss Charlotte V.
Hutchings, Contralto, both of New
York City.
The organ (which was bnilt by Mr..
L. U. Stuart of New York; contains
twenty stops, has two sets of keys and
two octaves of pedals. The diapasons
and reeds are remarkably fine. The
"Clarionette" in the great organ being
particularly noticeable for its close APP
proach to that instrument in quality of
tone. We understand the cost of the
organ to be about SO, 900, and congrat
ulate Mr., Stuart upon the success he
has achieved, and also our neighbors
at Railway for being the possessors of
so perfect an instrument.
