very satisfactory, the faults being those
inevitable in an amateur organization,
where the members have no cnance for

difficult one, even for professionals, the

and biting satire requiring light comedy

The Conservatory of Music Con-
cert.

CefLs
The announcement of concert by
Miss Baur's Conservatory of Music nev-
er fails to bring together an audience
made up of the most apprecistiye and
cultivated of Cincinnatps lovers OF
music. The relatives and friends Of the
pupils are always sure to be present,
and these embrace a large number OF
the most prominent and influential peO-
pie OF the city.
The concert last night was very de-
| hghttul one. Miss Emma Heckle's sing
| ing was exquisite. She rendered two
numbers, the first from Schubert, and
the second Schumann's "Ffuehlings-
nacht." Miss Alice Lowenstein sang
"Am Ufer des Fiusse" just as such an
artist would be expected to sing it.
Throughout, the concert was decidedly
enjoyable, and fully sustained the high
reputation Miss Baurrs Conservatory
| has won.
This was the first time many Of those
present had seen the new rooms Of the
Conservatory on West Eighth street,
and it is no wonder they were almost as
much delighted with the surroundings
as with the music. Miss Baur is most
devoted to the profession, gives her un.
divided attention to the Conservatory
and fully deserves as we'll as receives
the Endorsement and good wishes OF all
| who leel an interest in our city and Its
| flOurishing institutions.

The COOpers' Strike.

The coopers OF Cincinnati, who are on
a strike for an advance in wages, met at
9 O'Clock this morning at Arbeiter Hall;
one hundred and sixty representatives
were in attendance. Mr.. M. Bush pre-
sided.
The Committees which were appointed
Yesterday to canvass the shops in the
city, and Investigate the condition of
| Affairs, brought in their reports.
They found that some OF the "bosses"
were willing to accede to the requests
OF the strikers; others would not agree
to an advance in wages. In some OF the
shops the laborers would not hear OF
throwing up their work, but were will
| ing to keep on at the wages they were
| receiving. The Committee, in general,
found most of the shops deserted.
1t was moved that the strike be kept
up until next Tuesday or longer, until
tie busses would be willing to pay the
advance, rather than have their stock
lying idle.
ers determined to "stick," and, though
they had been offered Scent raise by
some of the bosses, demand the raise OF
10 cents.
1t was also determined that when the
bosses had granted the advance all the
names of those who did no. join the
strike should be recorded, and when
these men applied for work in any of the
shops where the strikers are engaged
they should be hlndered from obtaining
work. Should the "boss" accept theil
services, the men were to quit their EN-
ployer, until those men (who did not
Join the strike) be refused admlttance
in the shops.
The strikers, who were mostly Ger
mans, were an orderly set, and are res
oIute to obtain the advance required
from their employers. They threaten
no violence, but intend to gain their END
in quiet and determined way.
The strikers then adjourned to NEE
again tomorrow morning at 8 O'Clock.

CincinUati southern Railroad.

There was large meeting of citizens
last night at the rooms of the Board OF
Transportation, to discuss the location
of the depot. The matter, after lengthy
discussion, was referred to the joint
committee. Mr.. Laws then wanted a
discussion as to whether the road be
opened by Trustees or leased. Messrs.
Laws, Marsh, McNeale and Wells were
Of the opinion that the road ought to be
operated IN the interest of its owners.
Mr.. julius Dexter believed it best to
lease the road.
A motion having been made in the
course OF the discussion, that it was the
sense of this meeting that such legisla-
tion should be obtained as would deprive
the Trustees of the power to lease the
road, question was called on that motion
and it was unanimously carried. The
meeting then adjourned.

curious case of contempt OF court was
disposed of in the Appeal Court at
Douai recently. A workman named
Bernard made an application against a

argument was that he had pulled down
