The American minister, Mr.. Schenck, at
tended Friday evening the annual BANQUET of
the merchant tailors of London and responded
to toast in honor of the United States In the
coarse of his remarks Mr.. Schenck said that the
treaty of Washington had been very much
criticised in England as well as in his own
country, but both sides were content to accept
It as wise termination of what had seemed
likely to be an endless difficulty. Mr. Schenck
alluded to the kind manner in which he had
been received by all classes of society in En-
gland, and expressed the belief that the present
era Of good feeling between the two nations
would be lasting one. He concluded by
declaration that an alliance between the United
States and England would be irresistible.
A Paris dispatch states that by the explosion
Of a powder magazine on the eastern side of the
city, thirty persons were instantly killed and n
large number terribly injured. The greatest
excitement exists in the vicinity of the ex-
plosion, many believing the building was blown
up by sympathzers with the commune. The
authorities will probably order an investigation
into the circumstances attending the case.

A HARD CAsE.-Patrick O'Brien is a tough
customer. Half his time for a few years past
has been spent in jail, and yesterday he was ar
rested again because he displayed a disposition
to carve up his mother and the several members
of his family residing on Burt street. He is a
rolling-mill hand, but, when taken, appearances
indicated that he was about to enter on the
shoe business, for he had large shoe-knfe in
one hand and heavy iron-handled awl in the
other, both of which were waving threateningly
in the air when officers johnson and Sprague
were called in to take the troublesome mem
Der of the family to quarters where he
would ne longer endanger the lives of the
people in Burt street. His arrest and removal
to the lookup interested several hundred peo-
pie, each one of whom ought to be ashamed of
themselves for so crowding around officers
when only the ordinary duty of caring for dis
orderly drunken man was being performed,
After having been taken inside the station house
he conceived strong desire to wrestle with
some of the officers, and in every possible way
showed off the qualities of a vulgar brute, from
whose violcHce the public is only safe when the
restraining influence of a lock is held over his
career.

THE ORPHANS CoNcERT.-The con-
cert given at the Opera House, Tuesday
evening, by children of the Berea Ger
man Orphan Asylum, was a most ad-
mirable performance, and was attended
by a large and appreciative audience
We have not often listened to music so
thoroughly delightful and refreshing as
the singing of these children. The
bird-like warble of their young voices
was not only the music-eloquence Of
youth and innocence but the well-nigh
perfection of harmony and cadence, and
betrayed the most pains-taking culture
and training. Each little voice came
ripping in at the appropriate time and
place as sweetly and naturally as though
it were an inpromptu offering, and yet
was as delicately attuned to every other
voice as one of the accordant keys of a
piano.
The exercises of the evening were
preceded with prayer. and were aPpro-
priateIy introduced by remarks from
Rev. ]. Rothweiler, of Berea.
The programme embrac / the follow
ing pieces: Willkommen seliger Abend;
What comforts Lord, to those are given;
Hochan Himmel strahlt die Some !,
What can be more Beautiful Wiederum
hat Stille nacht; Meinen Heiland in
Herr; The Stars have Disappeared;
Die Wacht am Rhein My Country It's
of Thee; Hail to the Lords Anointed
Leise kommt die dunkIe Eacht; All the
birds are here already L get vo Berg
und Thai, in Swiss dialect Silent night,
halIowed night Was ist IS Deutschen
Vaterland; Seht vie die Some schon
sinket.
Besides the above Prof De Prose-,
of the Female College, and Mr.. J.. Van
Cleve, blind student of the Universe
ty. gave some very fine voluntary pieces
The.audience signifed its appreciation
of the performance by many hearty en-
cores, and some of the pieces, such as
the Watch on the Rhine, and that soul
inspiring anthem, What IS the German
Fatherland, created a real fervor Of en-
thusiasm by no means limited to the
German auditors.
The young choristers, thirty in num-
Der. moved at the motor of finger
and throughout the exerci. IS scarcely
word was spoken to them They were
under the direction of NJ Lieberherr,
the Superintendent of the .5erea Asylum.
which institution was founded in 1868
under the auspices of the German Meth
odist Conference and now contains s.
orphans, gathered from various parts Of
the country, and reclaimed, in several
instances, from most melancholy want
and destitution The children of the
Asylum have access to the German De
partment of the Berea University, be-
sides the excellent advantages afforded
by the Asylum itself for their mental
and moral training.
The concert given here was given also
in Columbus on Wednesday evening.
It might have been repeated at this place
with profit.
