The SOIdlier.n Trust.

This beautiful drama is advertised to
be performed in the Opera House III this
city, on Monday evnning next. The
play is thrilingly interesting, and with
Boniiace as Corporal Antoine" is said to
have become exceedingly popular. OF
this accomplished actor the Louisville
CoDunerctM says: III
Mr.. George G. Bonilce appeared last
night as Corporal Antoine" in ''Thc
Soldiers Trust before a large audience.
The play proved to be Of the greatest in
terest. The story is well told, and is
strong in situations. Mr.. Boniiacc's :
performance is most remarkable. Dur
ing long period Of the drama the "Cor-
poral" is dumb, and the actor is compel
ed to make his points by means of pan
tomimc alone. SO wondrously success
ful was Mr.. Boniace in this respect that
he was frequently complimented will
the hearticsL applause. The character l.
phenomenal and the actor must be ;
most consummate artist to present i
| clearly and with effect. This Mr.. Bonl
face does, and his performance shoul'
he seen this week by all our theatre
gocrs. lie is supported by an excellcn
| company.

John Reed was before the Mayor thi>
morning on the charge of being drunk.

testified that he was passing along

though some one was in distress. Aiiei
hearing IA second call he followed the
sound, and found the prisoner in the Sor'
rell Horse hoie stable yard. Upon be

was, he replied that a negro had hold OF

A Warrant fhat was mot served

Mention Is made in the first edition of
to-day's paper OF the attempt of man
named Stephen Machaw, to get posses
sion of his three step-chiidren, at New
Castle, by means of searchw arrant is
sued by quire Cole.
chaw arrived the house of John Tin
die, at New Castle. they were met by
VIM. Herbert, who is also an uncle of
the children, and Informed that they
could not get the children on any such
document as asearch warrant issued by
Justice of the Peace. Hickman at once
decided not to press the matter, and
whatever intentions Machaw might have
entertained were checked by the asser-
tion that ii would be death for him to at
tempt to enter the house and take forei-
BILE possession of the children. He back
ed out at once, left the town, and will
probably make no further attempts in
this direction.
Mr.. Herbert says that before he got
possession of the children, their father
had Il EN- travelling through New Jer-
sey, singing At religious concerts, under
the title of the "SingIng Pilgrims" They
were not ill-treated, but they were get
ting verv poor living, and hence he
determined to bring them to New Cas-
tie, where they could be well cared for.
He traced them from Camden to Lam
bertville, and was prepared to OBTAIN
them by a writ of hdbeds corpus, but as
the step-father happened to be absent
when he stopped at the house where the
children boarded he just took them away
without troubling himself about legal
| proceedings, the children being only toe
anxious to go with him. The mother Oi
the children was Mr.. Herbert's sister.
The attempt of MachAw to remove the
children from their comfortable HON,
created much indignation in New Castle
and it il said he would have been tarret
and feathered had he remained there
much longer
