Miles JuviniIe opera company.

Messrs. Logan & Smith have secured
Bob. Miles Juvenile Opera Company to
present Pinafore at Music Hall On Mon
day evening, March 8th. The company
is the same that visited our town
in the early part of the Winter, and
gave excellent satisfaction. There have,
however, been several changes in the
cast, which have materially strength
ened it. The Cincinnati Enquirer of
the 10th ult. thus speaks of the per-
formance of the company at the Grand
Opera House on the previous evening
There are in the company about forty
boys and girls, from four to fourteen
years of age, who present the Operatta
entire, and, take it all in all, as we'll as
any of the more pretentions companies
that have given the opera in our city,
and in some respects better. This may
be saying good deal, but it is the truth,
and any one who witnessed the perform
ance last evening will, we are sure,
back us up in this opinion: The audi
ence last night was very enthusiastic,
and the little ones receptions were al
most OvatiOns. The "Josephine" of
Miss Sallie Cohen we have noticed on
former occasions, and repeat what we
then said, that in acting and singing,
when her age is considered, it is Won
derful performance. Little Daisey
Hooker played "Buttercup" for the
first time last night, and she made a
tremendous hit. She is indeed, 'dai-
sy," and as clever a child-actress as we
remember to have seen for some time.
Manager Miles has gained a prize in
securing Master Lasker, a manly
little fellow, with one of the best
voices in the company, as the "Cap-
tain," sang with spirit and acted the
part capiTally. frankie Temple was
the Ralph, "and sang well throughout,
ina voice well toned and pleasant.
Harry Davis, as the ''Boatswain, ;" re-
ceived hearty encore for his song of
''He is an Englishman." "Deadeye"
was well taken care of by Master Fox,
and Mamie Cohen was cute as 'Hebe."

e. Gs TulhiIf.

We imagine none Of our readers will
fail to notice the mammoth advertise
ment of Mr.. E. G. Tuthill, the enter
prising carriage builder, of this place,
which appears in this paper. Mr.. Tut
hills establishment has gained wide
reputation for stylish and excellent
work, and his sales last season, not
withstanding the hard times, were very
extensive. He is manufacturing more
extensively than ever for the coming
season, and is taking the proper steps
to secure an increased trade, by liberal
advertising. Being satisfied that he is
able to supply what the people want at
satisfactory prices, he makes use Of the
best means to inform the public Of the
fact. Persons intending to purchase
buggies OF carriages the coming season,
should see what he has to offer them in
the way of elegant and substantial
work at fair prices, before buying.

CRUSHED UNDER HE CAR.
WHEELS!
Chas. Carr Run over and Killed
while Lying In a Drunken stu
pOr ON the Railroad Track.

Chas. Carr Run over and KILLED
while Lying in n Drunken Stu-
pOr ON the Railroad Track.
Chas. Carr, an Irishman, a resident
of this place, was killed on a side track
of the @. g. M. V. Ry., just East Of the
Fayette street crossing, on Saturday
evening last, about 8 O'Clock. He was
lying with his head upon the rail and
his left arm and right hand extending
across it, the rest of his body being out
side the track, when train of several
cars, backing out Of the side track,
passed over him, crushing off the back
part of his head and his left arm be-
tween the elbow and shoulder, and
right arm at the wrist. He was not
seen by the engineer or fireman until
after the train had passed over him and
backed on far enough for the light from
the engine to fall on the track where
he lay.
Coroner Hooker was notified of the
accident, and the body was taken to the
engine-house, and from there to Bow
man Hess undertaking establishment,
where it was properly cared for, and
remained over night. An inquest was
held in the morning, and a verdict
returned in accordance with the above
facts. The body was buried Sunday
afternoon, in the Catholic Cemetery.
Carr was about 35 years of age, un-
married, and had no relatives living
here. He came to this place three or
four years ago, and has been in the en-
ploy of the railroad company part OF
the time, worked for some time at Ely
g. Stimson's elevator, and at the time OF
his death was engaged in ditching for
B. F. Cofman. He had the reputation
of being an industrious and well-be-
haved man when sober, but was in the
habit of getting drunk when his weeks
work was finished and he got his wages.
He had not been working on Saturday,
but was on a spree. The last seen of
him alive, was about 10 minutes before
the accident occurred, when he was
seen in the vicinity of the railroad, in
very drunken condition, leaning
against a fence, vomiting. He started
from there toward the railroad, reach
ing which he sat down on the end of
one of the ties and vomited again, and
either laid down and went to sleep, or
fell over in a drunken stupor, and was
evidently lying upon the track in an
unconscious condition when the wheels
struck him.

ably be open portion of next week.

old. This new addition to the almost
endless list Of curiosities in the collec-

going some distance to see.
