The Store Of Ed Larkin Broken Open by
Midnight Providers.

The Store OF Ed Larkin Broken Open BY
Midnight Providers.
About two weeks ago q porter named
Lightfoot, employed at the st. James
Hotel, reported to Major Scranage that
he had noticed burglars on the roof in
the real OF Ed Larkin's dry goods store.
Tho matter was made known to Mr..
Larkin, and he secured the services
OF Captain Bennett and one or
two OF his men. The place
val carefully watched both by Mr..
Larkin and the police, but up TO this
time nothing has transpired TO give the
slightest clue TO the perpetrators. The
particulars OF the affair are as follows:
About the time noted above the porter,
Lightfoot, was engaged in some work OF
one OF the upper floors. Passing Q win.
dow or the upper side OF the house he
noticed two or three parties prowling
about over Mr.. Larkin's roof and also
noticed that they were carrying bundles
OF dry goods, but could not distinguish
their faces. The building 10 four-story
structure in front and two stories in the
rear, and Mr.. Larkin thinks an entrance
was effected by the burglars climbing to
the roof Of the two-story building and
prying open a window. Mr.. Larkin Is
positive that some articles have been
taken, az goods which he had In stock
when wanted cJuld not he found. Just
what has been ~purloined he is not able
10 say, but many articles have already
been missed, and some very valuable
ones, too.
Mr.. Larkins thinks he knows Who the
guilty parties are, but has not sufficient
proof TO definitely settle it upon any
one person. He says, however, that
they do not live very tar from his prem.

House in "0livette," that charming
comic opera. Thursday afternoon and
evening Audran's comic opera Mas
cote" will be given. OF this opera the
Chicago hter-O Ocean says:
One OF tue most pleasant light operas
that we have had here tor many n day is
Audran's comic opera Nhichh as many
claims for public favor. In the first place,
the music, while it CANNOT be called Of the
highest standard, Is very pretty through
out Ii is always rIelOdIOus, and occs-
sionally reaches a grade Of harmonic
merit which some comic operas do not
pussess. The OrChesEratiOn IS very COM
meudable. In the second place,
the plot, while not involved, is
very good, snd includes some funny
situations, and in the dialogue
and stage business conStane
mirth. In the tlird place. there ar
two very amusing, we'll sustained char
scters, LureEz) and the Court Physi-
rIan, which stand out in bold outlines
from a very pleasing and harmonious
background. In the last place, there Is
an undpTcurrent Of fun running through
the whole opera, which is decidedly
agreeable, especially in a piece that Is
gwen for the public entertainment du-
ring the deg days. Tickets at Banners

DISCIPLES caURcH.
Rev. w. B. Thompson d~iscoursed az
follows, yesterday. upon the subject OF
the nations mourning:
President Garfield is dead. The ma
jestic tower v which we had strung
the cables Of our hopes has been thrown
down. We many look about among the
ruins and take some observations OF that
character whose priceless value We were
only beginning to appreciate. President
Garfield was q growth OF fifty
years. The career which began
in obscurity and poverty in a leg
cabin at Orange, o., closed at the
metropolis OF the nation in the admira-
ton and sympathy Of the world.
The b~arefooted, overworked son OF
widow Garfield has died the president
of this grand nation ami more honored
than any man whoever lived. The
speaker remembered him as he appeared
in recruiting the 42d o. V. l., making a
solemn appeal for the preservation of the
Union and its blood-bought institutions.
Also took q view OF his characteristics
in home, social, religious and political
life. But while We gaze into the kaleid-
ascope and admire tine many forms of
beauty from the combinations of his
virtues our eyes grow dim with team for
We remember that he 10 dead. The

to carry on the work. The Passover
was ordered to be observed, and agrand
revival spread throughout all the land.
But no man is perfect. Josiah, though
a wise and plous king, lost his life in An
unnecessary battle with Secho, king OF
Egypt.
Our whole nation mourns to-day be.
cause OF the death Of our chief execu
tive, and the whole civilized world sym.
pathizes with us in u deep sti ;ction.
You are all familiar with the record
Of the case from the sad End OF July 10
the sadder 18th OF September, 1881.
During those seventy. nine days we were
vascilating between hopeand fear, and as
the events have proved, We were all
wrong in u conjectures as TO the prob
able issue. During that time, much has
been said about the noble and faithful
wife OF the President. Mrs. Garfield is
worthy of all the praise that has been
bestowed upon her. As wife and
mother, she has shown herself worthy
OF her high position. In this claim to
praise, the wife Of the President is
not alone. Thee are other wives and
mothers by the tens OF thousands
Just as worthy Of praise as she is.
This fact does not de ract from the need
OF praise due the wife oil the President,
but it demands from US the utterance Of
praise and commentator to every true
and noble wife and mother in the land.
Look at the lessons that are taught by
th-se sad events.
Oue of these is, that the religion OF
Jesus, and this alone can sustain us in
the hour Of trial and suffering. Presi.
dent Garfield has done the best work OF
his useful life in giving to the world his
example OF the sustaining power of re-
ligion in the midst Of trial and suffering.
Another. Death is no respecter Of
persons; the high and the low are alike
the subjects OF death. The President is
no more exempt than the lowest citizen.
Let all hear and heed the admonition,
Prepare to meet thy God"
Another lesson both Of the text and of
the sad events Of the day is, the adyan-
tages OF early piety. Youth is the time
when soul and life should be c~onsecrat.
