THE PARTY THURSDAY EVEN.
THG

The social party given by the ladies
at Bigelow's Hall, Thursday evening,
was a decided success in every particu-
lar, and the ladies having the manage
ment of the affair are entitled to the
thanks of the guests for their success
full efforts to render it the p~leasantest
social entertainment aver given in the
Base Range. The hall was well filed.
but not sufficiently crowded TO consti.
tute a ''jam," or to interfere with the
enjoyment Of the dancers, as there was
quite a number present who did not
participate in the terpsichorean exer-
cises. The music, Frank Reigelhuth's
entire band, was considered to be the
best ever furnished at a party in the
town. The canvas carpeting greatly
the graceful movements OF
the dancers, and was a great improve
ment upon the waxed deal which had
formerly constituted the surface of the
dancing floor of the hall. The supper
which vas under the supervision
OF Mrs. ID. w. Levan and Mrs. J.. f.
Platter, contained a bountifnl supply
of everything that the heart or
stomach could desire. and the guests
substantial evidence of their APP
probation of the goodly spread. The
entertainment netted upwards of two
hundred dollars. which will more than
liquidate the debt uponthe church.

pages of a portion of Yesterdays edi-

Mowc,s Grcnl Londom CIRCUS

Chattanooga Clenn.) Daily Commercial'l
Exhibited here yesterday afternoon
and evening. The morning opened
dismaly, skies dark aud rain falling
heavily. About ten o'clock the clouds
fortunately cleared away long enough
to enable the company to make their
street parade "Grand;" "rhe finest
display ever saw a show make;'
"They deserve to lie patronized for
that alone,n were among the compli-
ments the pageant received from the
best citizens, aud II deserved every
word of praise bestowed. The chariots
were OF artistic and novel design,
handsomely carved and richly adorned
with mirrors, gilt and crimson. The
stock was all fine, in good condition,
decently harnessed and well driven.
The menagerie comprises some rare
animals, with others usually found in
travelling geological collections. They
are all fine specimens of their species,
and in good health and spirits. 1t is
worth the price of admission to see
that cage OF splendid Bengal tigers.
The five performing elephants lack lit
tie of having human Intelligence, and
did all they were billed to do. The
ring performances are better than the
average; some very critical and we'll
posted spectators pronounced them the
best, rs a whole, that they had ever
seen under canvas. In conclusion we
desire to call particular attention to
the uniform behavior OF the attaches
of this mammoth establishment, and
their unwearying courtesy to visitors.
They seem delighted to answer even
the sometimes tedious questions of
children about the different animals,
thus making visit to their menagerle
u source of much information to be AZ
tanned only by this form ofobject teach
ing. Notwithstanding the heavy rain
in the evening and the sloppy condi-
ton of the grounds, fair audiences
were present at both performances.
Don't miss seeing them is our honest
advice to the people Of any place at
which they may exhibit.

miles from the city, on the west bank
of the Trinity river. For upwards OF u
year there have been rumors among
his nelghbors TINT all was not right

dIsappearances OF cattle las lately
turned rumor into accusation with the
proof Of guilt pointing directly at
Mann, Day before yesterday morning
the grand jury found a true bill against
him for cattle stealing,
Yesterday the Indictment was placed
In the hands of Sheriff Barkley, and
lie Immediately deputiaed Deputy
Sheriff Ashton Pryor to make the mr.
rest. Mr.. Pryor left early in the morn
ing in the face of the binding rain
and with great difficulty effected the
capture Of Mann, some sixteen miles
from the city. Mr. Pryor displayed
great energy in the undertaking as he
and his horse had to swim several
creeks aud streams, some Of them
swollen into little torrents by The heavy
rains. On his return to the city the
prisoner was placed in the county JAIL
Mann is said to be worth between fifty
and sixty thousand dollars and ther,
is no doubt but that he will be able lc
give the necessary bond for his release
to-day.

Fields Theatre.

advertised, at Fields Theatre last
night. Owing, We presume, to the in
clemency Of the weather, the attend

made sweet music, and were applaud
ed by the audience. Burton Stanley
deserves all the praise the press of the
country bestows upon him. He is the
best impersonator of female character
we ever saw, and his "get up" is won
derful. One can scarcely believe he is
looking upon man. Master Willie
ahd Miss Florence Marcy, in their
character songs and dances, Were
good, and raised the hearty applause
of the audience. Little Lola Peak We
think far superior to Fay Templeton In

has not the powerful voice of Fay.

There has been great deal said re-
lative to Major Barkley's treatment to
prisoners in the county Jail. Let any
one place himself In Major Barkley's
place for short time and he will find
how different matter it is to act
otherwise than he has done. AS far
as his being cruel to prisoners is con-
cerned, II is a malicious Islander. 1t Is
true that he sometimes speaks harshly
to them and In rare cases of bad con-
duct Furnishes them, but upon their
part many of them do not appreciate
kindness enough to.deport themselves
in such manner as to deserve 1t. On
several occasions lenienoency has been
shown them, that is they were un-
chained upon their pledge being given
that they would conform to the known
rules of the prison. Scarcely would
Major Barley and the jailor be out of
sight before these very same prisoners
were not only trying to devise means
of breaking out Of the Jail themselves,
but trying to induce Others to join
them who were not thinking of such q
thing. ANY one who Is at all
acquainted with the structure of the
jail knows that 1t is very far from be-
ing safe for men who are disposed to
make their escape; and Major Bark
lev, knowing this fact, is he not right

them? | think it would be much
more reprehenslble in him as a zeal.

SO endeavor to discharge his duty.
II has been said that the prisoners
friends have been denied the pleasure
of visiting them. Granted--but has 1t
stated that time and again instruments
have been passed in (by somebody's
friends no one being able to find
out who, for the purpose Of aiding the
escape of the prisoners? This has been
certainly the case. When extreme
rigor has been used, II has been the
fault Of the prisoner, aud not OF Ma
