BARN BURNED.-A barn belonging to Mr..
Packard, situated Just south Of the creek on the
Reynolds road, was burned, together with its
contents and stack Of straw, Friday afternoon.
Mr. Packard was not at home, and nothing could
be done to save 1t by his frightened wife and
children. A little girl was hunting eggs about
the barn half hour or SO before the flames were
discovered, but 1t is not thought she had any
matches. The fire originated in the stack and
burned hay, oats and corn worth considerable,
besides the barn. No alarm was raised, and the
existence of the FIRE was not known to the imme-
diate neighborhoOd, even till night, when the
light provoked inquiries.

The st. Louis Republican says: "Show me the
way in which the standard dramatic works are
supported" said the late Charles Dickens land
will show you the scale of intelligence of your
citizens" Judged by that standard we are truly
proud of our people as the audience at the Grand
Opera House last night was composed of the most
intelligent and fashionable ever assembled in that
building, and the manner in which the great &C.
tor Lawrence Barrett was received, must have
been as hsttering to him as 1t was credtable to
our city.
This can very appropriately be said Of our city
also. Barretts last reception here was very sue.

Thursday evening will undoubtedly be equally
