A FEW days after the nominations were
made by the Philadelphia Convention, the
Dayton (Ohio) Journal, a Grant organ,
gave the following explanation of the mo-
tive which induced Henry Wilson to change
his name from jeremiah Goliath:
''The change of Wilson's name came
about this way: His father was a dissipa-
ted man, who died the death of the intem-
perate. The stigma on the family was in
furious TO young Wilson. Upon bis appli-
cation, the Legislature changed bis name"
The Knoxville Radical paper pronounces
this "a contemplate, dirty falsebood."
Wen, it is family matter and they can
settle it between themselves. ar Jazz a.

CooL.-The HtelHgsncsr OF yesterday
morning quietly takes the SUNDAY
News report of the meeting on Saturday
night without word Of credit, publish
ing them as their own. Neither OF the
editors Of that paper thought the meet
ing OF sufficient importance to justify
their attendance. If they had they
would have discovered that Mr.. Cos
tello did not make the speech they
have published as his nor one anything
at all like it. They would have learned
also that Mr.. James Nolan did not
deliver a word more OF his speech than
we published. Mr.. Costello's speech
was slashiug diatribe against England
and ringing appeal to Irishmen never
to forget the wrongs done by her to
their native land and not an argument
Tor or against tariff. 1t strikes US that
a larceny oftwo columns and half OF
matter is by no means petty" larceny.
Don't do it again. If you think such
meetings of so little worth that you will
not honor them by your magnificent
presence, say nothing about them or
credit your reports to their proper
source.

PCRIM Hop.-One Of the most delight
full dances of the season was that given
at Turner Hall, last night, by the Jewish
ladies of this city. The arrangements
were perfect, and the whole affair
reflected the highest credit on Mrs.
Louis Gold, Mrs. Herman Cohn and
Mrs. Henry Hartman, the lady man.
ayers. The ladies were nearly all in
full dress, and in magnificent attire in
diamonds and other precious stones, out
shone any similar gathering this winter.
The music was by Kramers string band,
and was, of course, all that could be
desired. Zeigenfelder furnished the
supper, and fairly outdone all his pre-
vious efforts. Everyday considered,
the Purim Hop was grand success
aud credit to the ladies instrumental
in its arrangement. 1t was not designed
to do more than pay the expenses, but
as more than enough for that purpose
was taken in, the balance will be do
mated to the Children's Home.

The OPERA Observation-Disclosures,
citizens, everybody, remember the
meeting at the City Council chamber,
tonight. Several propositions to sell a
lot on which to build the Opera House
have been received and will be opened.
We are satisfied. in view Of the great
need Of suitable place of amusement
and the excellent prospect Of having one
built, that all the remainder of the stock
will be taken tonight. A proposition
will be submitted to reduce the proposed
capital stock from $4,000 to $4,000
1t will be wise to do so. Sixty-fve
thousand dollars will be amply suffi-
cient to build the Opera House. We
suppose the corporators will be selected
tonight and everything made ready to
ensure the successful running Of
the Opera House Company. Everything
looks bright, now, and We trust we
shall be able to congratulate our read
ers tomorrow on the certainty ofhaving
a decent place Of amusement.

The new rooms at No. 90 Market street
Hamiltons Block, just occupied by w.
H. Chapman & Co., agents for the
famous Florence Sewing Machine, are
as cosy, neat and we'll arranged as could
be desired. The great and growing
popularity OF the Florence rendered an
enlargement Of quarters necessary, and
Chapman & Co. are now prepared to

visitors in style.
Chapman g. Co. are a'so agents for
the celebrated Silver Tongue Organs,
and we were fortunate enough day or
two since to see the magnificent instru-

well be proud Of, one Of great power
sweetness Of tone and beauty OF con-
struction. Call and see the Florence

KILLED BY AN ENGINE-On Saturday
last as the tonnage train west, drawn
by engine No 302, on the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad, approached Cottontown,
a settlement about mile from Burton,
a man named Walter Hudson threw
himself under the engine and was cut
all to pieces. He was seen TO 60 to
the track as the train approached, and
a man named Saunders, diviuing his
intention rushed after and caught him
and endeavored to drag him from his
swift approaching doom. Hudson
braced his feet against the rails and
stubbornly resisted his friends kind
offices. TO save himself Saunders was
obliged to let HIM 60 to death. Hudson,
it is supposed was suffering from the
effects OF deliri,lm tremens.

ASSAULT AND BaTTERY.-The hearing
of the charge OF assault and battery
preferred against John Lang by Alex
auder Firth, came off before Squire
Johnston yesterday. Lang, who is a
man sixty.nine old, married a wife OF
eighteen or twenty years, and as is usual
in such matches, the old man is jealous
of his young darling, and of any one
who speaks to her. Lang confessed to
the assault and battery, and was held
in the sum Of $500 to answer before the
Circuit Court, and in the sum OF $500 to
keep the peace for one year.
