CITY GLOBULEs.
''Peek-a-boo," Opera House, tonight.
The McGibeny Family at the Opera House
this evening.
Mrs. Geisler, residing at the corner of Oak
and Third streets, while passing along Dayton
avenue fell and broke her arm yesterday.
We cannot say too much in praise of the
McGibeney family, who give another of their
most entertaining concerts at the Opera House
this evening.
John Reilly, the New Orleans hoodlum who
gave such trouble when arrested on Tuesday
afternoon, was Yesterday sentenced to seven
days upon the stone pile.
The ladies managing the fair for the House
Of the Good Shepherd will be glad to see gen.
tlemen between the hours Of IL and to-day,
when they can be served with lunch to suit the
most fastidious epicure.
The immense gathering at the Opera House
last night did not in the least detract from the
fair at Music Hall, which was well attended
during the evening. The refreshment room
was an especially attractive feature.
Henry Webb, the cripple picked up on lower
Jackson street on Tuesday in helpless state
of intoxication, was yesterday reprimanded
and discharged by Judge Flint, with the under
standing that he should leave in the evening
for Milwaukee, whence he hailed.
The bridge across the wide ravine at the
junction Of John and Bridge streets, Sixth
ward, was finished and opened to the public
yesterday at 10 o'clock. The grading Of the
| street and the construction Of the bridge in SO
short time, reflects creditably upon the con-
tractors, Cooley & Co.
Regarding the omnibus which was upset on
the Como road on Sunday evening, it should be
said that, although it belonged to O'Donnell
d Lunkenheimer, the firm named was in no
| way responsible for the accident. The bus
| had only been loaned and neither the horses
nor driver belonged to that establishment.
Casting at the Harvester works was resumed
| yesterday for the first time since the foundry
was consumed by fire on Saturday evening, a
| temporary building having been erected in the
meanwhile, with commendable rapidity. Re-
sumption of casting was rendered all the more
| rapid from the fact that the blast cnpola and
the patterns were saved.
Thomas Bower has just returned from sue
cessful trouting expedition on Mckenzie river,
Pr TX county, Wis, thirty five miles above st..
Croix falls. Asa proof of how widespread the
liz
| cidentally mentioned that Mr.. Bower never
heard the eight Chippewas of Grantsburg were
on the rampage until he reached St. Paul! But
then he is tolerably secure from scalping,
anyway.
The wife of Rudolph Scheneman, United
States gauger, residing at 173 Exchange street,
died suddenly last evening. She was designing
| to take walk with her husband after supper,
but at half-past six threw her hands up, ex-
claiming, MY head, my head" Medical aid
was summoned, but more than an hour elapsed
before physician arrived and she was already
dead. DR.. Wheaton will make post-1nortem
examination this morning.
G. " Smith was arraigned yesterday in the
municipal court on charge Of Strengthening
within the corporate limits-namely, on Broad
way. The case was continued until this morn
ing. It is worthy of mention that this is the
first prosecution of its class that has occurred
In two years. although similar nuisances have
existed and several Others do exist. The mat
ter is an important one, and this morning s
trial will be watched with interest.
As the foremost band of the Temperance
procession approached Bridge square last even
ing, a horse driven by Mr.. Joseph O. German be-
| came FESTIVE. MIR. O'Gorman seized the horse
by the head but the animal broke away from
him, and in so doing he was thrown down, the
wheel OF the buggy passing over the back of
| his head and causing severe, but not dan
| geraous scalp wound. The horse was caught
| near Rice park, the buggy having been some
whet demoralized during the run.
| DIR. N. B. Patterson stands very high with
the Chippewa race at present. He had OBJ
tanned from first hands Photographic copy of
| one OF the finest works of art the world has
ever seen, and yesterday he presented it to the
| hSoEs, ~
Indians now visiting the city. The Indian,
while not cultured, is nevertheless an enthusi-
astlc admirer of natures noble works. They
accordingly showered thanks upon the doctor
and pledged themselves that their finest tepee
should be graced by the work of art in ques-
ton.
1t has been heretofore noted that Jerry Man.
ming gave himself up to the police on Monday
for the rough-and-tumble fight he had on that
day with Sylvester Montague. The two were
sentenced on Tuesday to twenty days on the
stone . pile; but Jerry skipped over the fence
after working short time. Yesterday how
ever, he was recaptured on Robert street and
lodged in Jail by Detective Brisette. Man.
ning's mother is lying at the point of death
and it is understood an effort will be made to-
day to secure his release.
On Tuesday evening last young son of Mr.
John A. Chandler, residing on Ninth lstreet
near the Baptist church, was flying kit,
from the roof of the house, and had perchec
himself on a chimney. From this odd and ele
waited position, he fell and struck upon the
The force of his fall was such that two of tn
spike-like points of the railing entered one
his thighs, and, breaking off, remained imbed
ded in the flesh. The spikes were extracted b,
DIR: Higbee, and the boy fortunately ESCAPED
serious injury.
A spicy little runaway occurred yesterda,
morning at about $50 o'clock A team, i,
charge of boy, attached to load of WOO,
started from Bridge square, pelted up Waba
shaw street, and turned up Fifth. At this mo
ment Mrs. George s. Acker came down Fifth i,
a buggy with her little son, and terrific cras]
seemed inevitable But Mrs. Acker wa
equal to the occasion. With presence O
mind that won the admiration af ali beholders
she quietly drove into Dowlan' wood yard, un
I'll the runaway was stopped opposite the post
office. Then Mrs. Acker emerged from her re
