A controlling interest in the st. Louis
and San Francisco railway has been pur-
chased from Messrs. Seligman by jay Gould
and G. p Huntington. They have thereby
acquired half ownership in the Atlantic

property of the Santa Fe company. This
may result in stopping the extension Of the
Atlantic road to California: it will certainly
prevent the paralloling of the Missouri
Pacific by the st. Louis road.

For the Sunday Bulletin:
FTHE CONCERT.
Having heard great deal about the
Musical Convention which has been held
in this city for the past two weeks, we
thought we would attend the closing con.
cert given at the Presbyterian church last
night and to say that we were surprised,
but feebly expresses the emotion which we
experienced while listening to the grand
music rendered by Prof. Sherwin's class,
We had not the slightest idea that Cairo
was so rich in musical talent.
The class was largely composed of edi-
tors, ministers, doctors, business and rail
road men, which fact completely upsets
the old notion that man who is a good
musician will never be successful at any
other business. Then, the wives and
mothers who help to compose the class
and whose exquisite voices contributed to
render this occasion such delightful one,
are all of them charming house.keepers
and watchiul mothers, and this proves that
cultivating the musical talent God has
given them has not interfered in the least
with their domestic duties. How proud
we were of the young ladies in the class
Many of them it seems but yesterday, were
little girls in short dresses and pinafores.
How sweetly they sang-how bright and
happy they looked, aud but for having
their hair little too "muchly banged" the
charming pictures they presented would
have been perfect. Long live Cairo's
Choral Society. May it flourish and in.
crease in numbers until il is considered a
permanent institution Of this city, and
may its harmonzing and elevating inhu-
ence be felt throughout the whole length
and breadth of the land. Long live Prot.
Sherwin, and may the earnest enthusiasm
which fills his melodious soul, pervade each
member of the Choral Society with which
he labored so zealously. LA, NJ.

German, made the rounds of the Missis-

it in good condition. 1t was reported that
a wash was in progress at or near point
where the new levee joins the old, but
close investigation proved that this was
erroneous. The levee is being constantly
watched by several men, who will report to
the city authorities any sign of washing
that may occur at any time during the
day or night, and when such signs do APP
pear, they will receive prompt attention.

Two white men created great dis
turbance at tho corner of Twelfth street
and Washington avenue Friday night about
eleven O'clock. They were both slightly
under the influence of liquor, but not so
much SO as to be unable to use their muscles
to good advantage, or their tongues either.
They fought, scuflled, cursed and yelled for
about ten minutes, when they were stopped
by a couple of officers who conducted them
to Jail with some difficulty. They were
tried by Magistrate Comings yesterday and
each fined six dollars and costs for drunk
enness and disorderly conduct. Their
names are Frank Kelly and hobart Clark.
Ed Luster and Lena Abbott, the former
arrested by Officers Tyler and Wimms for
being drunk, and the latter, by officer Tyler
alone, for being drunk and disorderly, were
fined one and six dollars and costs respec-
lively in the same court.

The Steamer John A. Scudder ran
aground in the cornfield just opposite the
slaughter houses, Friday night She
struck very near the same place where the
John B. Maud grounded the night before
and, like she, in an attempt to cut across
the made land to reach the Ohio river front
of Cairo. She struck with such force that
both her great chimneys broke their fasten-
ings and fell over backwards on the
hurricane deck, injuring it to some ex-
tent. She was drawn off after several
hours of hard work and after having been
lightened, and wa showed opposite the foot
of Tenth street where she lay all day yes
terday while her chimneys were being re-
paired preparatory to replacing them.
Thick volumes of smoke came forth from
the chimney openings for several hours
during yesterday afternoon, almost hiding
the boat from view, and was driven by the
strong wind down the entire front of Ohio
levee, binding and sicKening people who
were compelled to walk there, and giving
Cairo, for the time being, the veritable ap-
pearance of smoke.curred Pittsburgh.

by unclean teeth breeds dyspepsia. Such
at least, is the declared opinion of medical
men. Remedy the evil with purifying,
aromatic Sozodont, which clears away cor
rosive particles which lodge in the teeth
and produce an acid ferment, that in time
destroyes their enamel and ruins them. 1t

can yet be saved from the destructive ef

Yesterday the remains of Mrs. O'Brien
were taken to Grand Chain for burial.
The family is very poor, making barely
enough to live and pay house rent Be-
cause of this the mothers remains were
taken to their last resting place unattended
by the grief stricken children, Of whom
there are quite number. A subscription
paper, passed around among the attaches
of The BULLETIN by zone Of the boys yes
terday, raised enough to buy for George,
one of the eldest of the children, who is
employed in The BULLETINS news room,
some necessary articles of wearing apparel,
and left him also q small sum for future
use. 1t is likely that the Clark block
contains more families who are in need and
who, like the family referred to, are not
unworthy of assistance from the charitaby
inclined people of Cairo. 1t is also proba-
bic that in other portions of the city, in
some ugly old barrack, there are still
others-men, women and children, to
whom q dollar or two would be God
send--a salvation, perhaps, from sin and
crime, unto honor and honesty. If tn
plan of organized charities, suggested
some time ago by The BULLETIN had
been adopted and carried into effect in
this city all these poor people would be
hunted up and given necessary assistance.
AS it is, they languisb, and languishing, they
die--or worse still, they fall victims to the
temptations of evil.
