"CaRIsT In ART" is work of rare
merit. It's engravings are finely exc.
cuted copies from superior artist, ana
its text mas been skillfully arranged by
DR.. Eggleston, 1t is pieced out OF the
four Gospels so adroitly that the life Of
Christ appears as n rounded and con,
tinuous narrative giveL in the exact
language of the Evangeiists, and yet
without break or repetition. The sacred
story reads like fresh poem or tragedy
in the history of the world. The text
and engravings taken together form

JACK, THE GIANT KILLEx.-The
comic opera of Jack, the Giant Killer
continues to be the delight of the young
folks. at the Opera House. The chill,
dren are enthusiastic over it. and this
feeling is not confined TO the Juveniles
alone, as many an adult side is made To
ache at the ludicrous scenes presented in
the performance. All OF the Liliputisn
actor, sustain their parts admirably, but
Commodore Nut and Miss Jennie Quig-
ley seem to be the fsvorites. The Commo-
dore in his inimitsble song of Drunk
Again" would provoke smile from the
most Jealous Murphyite. Miss Ella
Kirkland dsuces the Highland Fling"
with most graceful ease. and Miss Jen-
ME in the Old Virginia "brskedown," is
superb. Colonel Goshen is q monster
giant, and when he picks Jennie up by
the head and carries her of to his castle,
the spectator naturally expects to see the
bean pole to spring up BY the wall. Nat
nee and evening performance during the
remainder :: the week.

AT IT AaAIN.-A Pointer for the
Poliee.-For some time past petty swind-
ling games have been carried on IN TINS
CITY rather extensively, but as yet the
victims have either not been possessed
of enough common sense, or lacked the
nerve. to report the same to police head
quarters This being the case, we give
the police this morning the particulars
of what is called the "knife game" as
practiced on a country-msns near the
Christman stock yards yesterday. Danlei
O'Conor Qulnlsn, ex-csndidate ior
Mayor, and recently released from the
work house for an alleged attempt AT
highway robbery during the campaign,
in company with several OF his comPah,
IONS in crime, yesterday sccosted a rural
youth named Dillon in familiar way.
In the course of the conversation,
Daniel, who is well posted in the wsy'
that are dark and tricks that are vain,
produced a common pocket knife ana
opened and closed the same. He then
proposed to gamble five dollars with his
new found friend, that he could not open
the knife. Dillon At first declined 10
gamble on the result, stating that he dld
notldeslre TO win Quinlsn's money, but
Qulnlan's pals coming up and asserting
that he lacked sand" ''hsdnt the
nerve" was weakened" and olacK'
guarding him for while, Dilioa wa
finally persuaded to wager FIVE dollars
which amount was put in the hands OF
stakeholder, companion OF Quin Ian
The knife was given him to open, but as
was expected, he did not possess the
"open sesam' to lead him on to fortune
A concealed spring in the handle OF the
knife prevented the blade from yielding
to his touch, and Qulnlan and gang
walked away with their ill-gotten gains
the verdant youth, whose name 1t Ii
Dillon, remarking, without any endeaVol
at sarcasm, that he "thought Qulnlsn sne
friends were too respectable TO treat hin
in that way" So lar as we have learn
ed, the victim of this confidence game
made no report of the same to the police
probably fearing the wrath OF the par
ties who had swindled him, and we give
publicity to the matter that the eyes o
the police may gently foreshadow the
movements of Daniel OConnor Dunbar
and friends, and their little game be sue
cessfully squelched. The gang are no
above suspicion.
