Shooting ARRAY,


Last night mackerel named Michael
Kelly, recently from st. Louis, was shot
by some one of party of confederates
in Happy Hollow, back of the county
Jail. Kelly had his left hand badly
shattered, and another ball entered the
right groin, ranging back toward the
hip. He is dangerously wounded, and
his attendant physician, DIR. Nuttall,
who saw him last night, thinks it
probable that he will die. Thomas
Harrison, William Carey, William
Fitzgerald and Thomas Hines we're
arrested on suspicion of committing the
offence. Fitzgerald says that he and
Hines were sleeping together in Happy
Hollow, and that Hines got up and took
from under tis (Fitzgerald's) pillow two
pistols, and that the shooting took place
coon afterwards. The shooting took
place at disreputable house in the vicin-
ity, and one of the women says that
Hines did the work. All the parties
we're placed under $4,000 bonds by
Recorder Winters to-day to answer be-
fore the Criminal Court.

ADJUSTMENTS.

MEMPHIS THEATER.-There was a
crowded house at the theater last night.
The play, Chris and Lena, is desti-
tute Of plot. Like all pieces of this
character it is merely chain to connect
the specially performances of the stars.
AS Chris Baker is decidedly good.
He presents the German characteristics
and peculiarities in life-like manner.
Farren as Lena" cannot be exeelled,
while as Tim Flaherty " and in the
Mulligan Guards he is irresistibly ludi-
crous. Several of their specialties were
excellently well rendered. For instance
Little Frauds" Z" Tim Flaherty and
the Mulligan Guards, all of which are
an intermixture Of the minstrel and the
comic opera business. The audience in
attendance enjoyed the amusing per-
Torrance, and kept up constant roar
Of laughter. The play is a little too
long, and even humor becomes monet
onous by being long drawn out. 1t is
safe to predict that Baker and Farron
will continue to draw large houses du-
ring the week, and they deserve such,
their specialties being far above any
thing of the kind ever before presented
in this city. There wiltbe matinee
to-day, and the performance will be re-
peated tonight.
MINsTRELsY. = Cal Wagner's cele-
brated minstrel troupe appeared again at
the Assembly Hall last evening. The
troupe gave a series Of songs, dances
and negro comicalities, which was thor
oughly enjoyed by the large audience in
attendance. Cal Wagner, Sam Price,
Hawkins, Murphy, Green, Sadler and
other members of the troupe, gave their
best specialties last evening. The vocal
quartette has been selected with care,
and their voices chord excellently we'll.
Tonight the troupe will give their last
performances
WIRES OPERA HOUSE. = Manager
White has brought out twenty splendid
stars, who appear nightly at his Jefer-
son street Opera House. The pro-
gramme of entertainment consists of
vocal and instrumental music, fancy
