RONCoNI's OPERATIC ENTERTAINMENT.
The first of series of operate entertain
ments under the direction Of sienOr Ronconi. given
last evening at the Union League Theater sgnor Ron
conf assisted by his pupils, rendered the Third Act OF
NabucO the Second Act OF Linda d Chamounix and the
Second Act OF Petrcla's PrecauzOni. The NabucO,
though helped along by good chorus, was tamey re-
cevcd. The selection from Linda made much stronger
impression, both unsteady and dramatically. Mr..
GulageI as Linda, and signOr Ronconi as An
tonic, not wanting in the passion and
power which the scene requires. They were well
supported by Mrs Frida de Gebele and Mr..
KOppen as PierOtto and Visconti. In Petrela's
light amusing composition Miss A. i. Han sang the
principal part with admirable spirit and signor Ronconi
was as funny Mr. de Gebelle and Miss Roncon
personatcd lMmosa and Romida, and showed the re-
signOT Roncons dramatic instructions the com
poser having afforded their voices little Opportuni-
ty for emulaing the lady first mentioned The auditO
rum Was crowded to the utmost OF it's limited capacity

I worked the critters in early. Well,
one day old Tennessee Smith, down by
tho Lillypache, had cut red elm and it

A SUPPRESSED DISPATCH.

TOUCHING SCENE IL AN EDITORIAL nooM.
We take the following from the Chicago
Times: The editorial rooms Of morning
newspaper, though the omninn, gatherum
Of all the startling events daily occurring
elsewhere, are not usually very prolific in
startling incidents of dramatic situations /,
and seldom, indeed, does an episode Of SO
painfully interesting character fall under
the immediate notice Of an editor while
in the performance of his somewhat mo-
notonous routine duties as the following.
And this is how dispatch came to be
suppressed:
A little before 12 o'clock on Tuesday
night, while the night editor of the Tiixes
was engaged in The reading and prepare
ton Of the numerous tclegrapbic messages
which we're to appear in the next morn
ing's issue, he was visited by young man
of twenty-five or twenty-six years, evi.

parent that their errand was a painful
one. llesitatinsly, anxiOusly, and in q
subducd tone, the young man inquired If
auy news had been received Of a murder
committed at Troy, New York. during
the day. Being answered negatively, he
t'icn explained that he had been informed

in Lrict dispatch that his brother, living
in that city, had been shit and killed, aud
that be was anxious to obtain additional
particulars, with lingering hope that the
message be had received was some hOrrid
mistake. lie was asked to wait until the
next dispatches arrived, and sud They
would probably contain information oflhe
affuir. He took q scat and anxiously
awaited for some minutes the arrival of
the mcsecdger, the silence being broken
by an occasional sigh or groan, as tue
dread reality, or some tender recollection
of boyhood's days. when he and the
brother he mourned were playmatcs. came
over him, escaped him 1t was bitter
enough, and it was plain enough that his
quiet dencnnor was only the result Of
powerful effort at self.control.
The messenger came; the looked for
dispatch was found. 1t was not mere
confirmation of the terrible news hs had
received. Terrible as that had been, the
reality was worse, infinitely worse! His
brother had not been murdered, but was
himself murderer, aud in the agonies Of
remorso had committed suicide. Some
