Ohio River distractions.

Mayor Johnston and the Southern
Railroad Trustees are in receipt Of the
following protest from the Louisville
Mail Line Company:
''To the City of Cincinnati, o.:
''Notice having been given by public
adVertis ement in the newspapers OF this
city that on or about the 10Th of NOvem-
ber the erection Of the channel span OF

and that, while this work is
under way, the channel span will
be filled with trestles, and OBJ
structed by boom extending to
the channel piers from orb above and
opposite the middle Of the channel
SPACE; and as the closing OF said channel
will not only seriously obstruct the nav.
igation of the river, but, in all proba.

pied, entirely destroy it; and as the
United States Mail Line Company own
and are running lines of steamboats, be-
tween Cincinnati and Louisville, and
Cincinnati and Madison, and have all
their wharf and wharfboats, and con-
veniences for receiving and discharglng

where their office is; and as no con-
yenient or MT place for receiving and
discharging such freight and passengers
can be had below the bridge, and
would be attended with greal
extra expense if one could be had

against such occupation of the channel
OF the river; and they especially protest
against the closing or obstructing OF the
channel at the present stage Of water In

not sufficient water or space for the SAFE

The Hart Murder Case Concluded

The inquest in the Hart murder case
was resumed this morning.
Mrs. Catherine Olding, in whose house
the shooting was done, testified that the
prisoners came into the saloon about 8
O'Clock and asked for some whisky.
They got it, and after sitting down for
about fifteen minutes wanted some
more. Under the belief that they
should pay for 1t, she put the bottle
on the counter. They took the bottle
and went away with it. After return
ing they began fuss with the Hart
brothers. She then went out into the
yard and saw nothing Of the-shooting.
Her motive for going out was that she
anticipated fuss.
The case was then given to the jury,
who rendered a verdict that Danl. Hart
came to his death by pistol ball
fired from pistol in the
hands of Jas. j. Cain, on November 6,
and we further find that Edward Brad
ley was accessory to the act. Cain and
Bradley were remanded to Jail, and
Deppe, the third party, dismissed.

HYDRAULIC PRACTICAL j

HYDRAULIC PRACTICAL JOKES
When Catherine IL ana her successors
amused themselves at PeterhOff, the
water-p0wer was taken into service to
play practical jokes on the unwary peo-
| pe, which can not be called enjoyable.
! In one retired nook there stands a gi-
gantic mushroom, large enough to have
| a bench around its stem. AS soon as
| anybody undertakes to seat himself up
| on it the water streams out of the whole
periphery Of the spreading top, inclos-
ing the captive in splasnlng cylinder.
| To rise again stops the flow Of water,
Of mind to think of that. In another Sc
cluded spot there is what is called th4
"Lovers' Seat" and here l came upon
a poor boy in rather disagreeable
plight. Under a spreading elm, the
| branches of which are arttully inter-
woven with water-pipes, there stands "a
bench, just wide enough for two, with a
bed of flowers in front, containing some
artificial and some natural shrubs and
two huge cast.iron thstles. Some fun
loving individuals had enticeu the boy
to sit down there and turned ON The wa
ter, which was pouring over him from
all directions, from the branches of the
elm, the back of the bench, and from
every braL ch and thorn oil the shrubs,
1t must be an ardent lover indeed that
would survive such q dOusing. In the
boys case there was no tender flame to
overcome, and he bounced from his
seat with yell and fed across the
park, his cowhide boots causing SAD
havoc among the fower-oeds, while his
dripping garments secured him plenty
OF elboW-room wherever he struck d
gayly dressed crowd.

Notwithstanding the unlavorable
weather Miss Augusta Dargon and her
excellent company had fair audience
last night. Her impersonation of "Queen
Catharine" in "Henry WHIP was pro-
nounced most excellent, and the good
opinions she won on her first appearance
were more than confirmed last night.
The company is really fine one, and
the support was in consequence more
satisfactory. Tonight we are to have
"Camille," and tomorrow night "Lon-
don Assurance"
Grand Opera-hOuSe.
This is the last night of "Lord Dun
dreary." Tomorrow night we are to
have Mr.. Sothern's new play, "The Hor-
nePs Nest"
The popular family matinee will be
given to-day, with "Marble HearW as
the bill, and only 25 cents admission to
all parts of the house. Mr.. Frank.
Roche, Miss Gussie De Forrest, an
other leading members of the excellent
company OF the Grand, will appear. The
p, pularlty OF these family matinees con-
tinually increases. IL is not so much
the cheap admission as 1t is that they
are given in the middle OF the week,
when ladies are much more at leisure
than on Saturdays. The people who
compose the audiences at these matinees
are always among the most fashionable
to be found at any place of entertainment
in the city.

many OF our friends and volunteers in
the army, VINO were suffering from Diar-
rhea, caused by change of water, un.
healthy and improperly cooked food,
and in every case it was used with the
best results.
This is no quack nostrum, but the
prescription of regular and successful
city physician Of extensive practice and
reputation; the prescription has been
used for some years In our own families
with invariable success.
1t is a scientific prescription prepared
with the greatest care, aud we recon-
mend it with the utmost confidence as the
best remedy known for the diseases
mentioned.
Every family should have bottle Of
this Cordial ready for Immediate use. A
single dose of only few drops in the
early stage OF these diseases will often
check and cure the disorder.

changes of water aud diet, will find this

the awards, and decreed for the New Wheeled

MEDALS OF MERIT. This is double victory
and the highest award which it was In tM
power Of the Centennial authorities to bestOW
No other sewing Machine received such I
recognition. More than thirty OF the best proc
ducers of machines in this and other countrieS
entered for competition, and at PhiladelphN
in 1876 as at Vienna in 1873 and at Paris in
1867. Wheeler & Wilson lead the list. After .
careful, rigorous, and exhaustive examinas
ton, the judges unanimously decided that thu
superior excellence of these machines des
served more than one medal or diploma, and
consequently, they recommended TWO OF
EACH. The Centennial Commission unantS
mousIy ratified the action Of the judges, and
the public will indorse the decision Of thes4

A PLEA FOR cHARITY.-The coming
winter is unquestionably to be a severe
one, even in the mildest aspects Of the
weather, to the large class OF poor people
who OF necessity have been kept out oil
work the greater part Of the year. The
times have been exceptionally stringent
and many persons who have been accus'
toned to free and generous living have
been compelled by stress Of fortune TO
curtail expenses in every possible way;
80 that it Is not 10 be wondered at that
those who have always found life u hard
struggle at best should now be severely
pinched and will be, az the cold season
comes on, greatly troubled to obtain the
smallest comforts, even the protection
that is required 10 keep soul and body TO.
gether. But as we all can fOresee the
suffering that is sure to come, each oil US
should prepare to contribute in some
measure toward its alienation. Cloth.
ing, fuel and food will all be needed, and
each one in his own neighborhood may
do the part Of the Good Samaritan and
receive not only the rich reward OF
thanksgiving from grateful hearts here,
but boIntiful blessings from above. Re-
member that 1.-THE poor we have always
with u.s." and realizing it, let none who
are we'll provided with comforts fail 10
perform their share Of charitable work
during the cold and blcakness OF the up
preaching winter.
