WILLIE JOHNSON.

Sweet little babe, born Dec. 10Th
1880, after having lived but a few
transient months, and only long
enough to embalm itself in the mind
and heart of an affectionate mother
doting father, loving sister and kind
brothers, died of Inflammation of the
bowels, after only few hours ILL
ness, March 23d, 1881. This being
the fourth child which Mr.. and Mrs.
G. r. johnson have lost, makes the
death of this precious little boy pc
culiarly sad, but they are cheered
by the promise of the resurrection.
One less tie on earth and one more
in heaven The little darling, I'M
SCARED by one single sin, goes back
to God as pure as when it came to
earth, and there waits the coming of
mamma, papa, sister and brothers.

Irvington, the county town of the
new county of Dickinson, situated
on the Kentucky border, east of
Pound Gap, in the most mountain
GUS and inaccessible portion of Vir-
ginia, was totally destroyed by an
incendiary fire on the night Of the
28th ult. The county is only a year
old, and fully one-half the population
were violently opposed to the locali-
ty selected. The court house had
not been completed, and it and the
two church buildings, nearly all
there were in the town, were entire
ly destroyed. Four men were ar
rested and are being tried for the
crime. 1t is believed the torch was
applied by parties who wish the
court house located elsewhere.

Artificial Eyes Inserted which
Move and Appear as the
Natural Eve without Pain.

Natural Eye Without Pain.
Read what one of the most reliable
citizens of Knoxville says:
MANY years ago l lost one of my
eyes, which has always been sore by
the lids lying together and also disfgur-
ed me very much. l consulted DR..
Jones, who told me he could insert an
eye without operation or pain to move
and appear natural and cure the sore
ness all of which he has done. The
eye moves, gives no pain, and the old
soreness is gone, and but few of my
friends can tell the artificial from the
natural eye. JOHN q. FOX,
Engineer at the Custom House. F"
Knoxville, Tenn, Feb %, 1881.
The great cures and skilful surgical
operations accomplished by DR.. Jones
has induced the people to urge him to
stay at the Hattie House, Knoxville,
until April "a, that all may come and
get cured.

"DR. JoNEs-Dear Sir: am happy
to report that in eight days after using

treatment, she is well and attending to
her household duties-has visited the
country and attends church and goes

she ever had been an invalid seven

the more remarkable as her pain and
sufferings were intense and she could not
rest day nor night before she commence

General Mention of Profes-

The Boston Ideals, as their name would
indicate, is musical organization chat was
started in Boston two years ago. for the
purpose Of securing the best talent on the
American lyric stage, The idea was a
most happy one, as the success of the
present troupe will prove; and the amuse-
ment loving public have testified their ap-
probation by liberal patronage whenever
au opportunity presented Itself. At first
the organization performed 'Pinafore, .
and although this highly attractive little
opera had been played to death, the Ideals
packed the houses in which they appeared,
because of the well-known superiority of
the individual members of the cast New
operas were gradually added to the repor-
toire, and the same financial and profes-
sional success attended their efforts. To-
day the troupe stands unrivaled in the ex-
cellence of the different artists engaged TO
assume the leading roles, while the chorus
and orchestra are as near perfect as is pos
sibIe for travelling organization to carry.
The repertoire of the Ideals includes the
fascinating Chimes of Normandy, Z"
'sOlivette,p The Mascotte," Gear and
Carpenter" and "Fatinitza, as well as
several of Gilbert and Sullivan's.
This fine organization viii present Won
Suppe's light and taking comic opera of
''Fatinitza" at Harper's theatre next We'd
nesday night, and the people of Rock
Island are thus offered musical treat
which will perhaps not be the case during
the season. 1t behooves the amusement
going public of this city and Moline to
make preparations to attend the opera, as
the merits OF the piece and the excellence
of the performers are acknowledged where
ever the troupe has appeared during the
past two seasons.
The citizens of Moline are enabled to at
tend, as the regular G. B. & @. train leaves
in the evening and arrives at the Rock
Island depot only block from Harper's
theatre at 7:30. The C. III. Sc st. P sends
out the night express at II o'clock thus
taking the opera goers to Moline in good
season.
The sale of seats commenced this morn
ing at Marshalrs drug store, and from the
large number already sold it is assured that
the theatre viii be crowded Wednesday
night as the merits of the performance sc
richly deserves.
