THE LOST ROSS BOY.
A Thrilling scene In Philadelphia,

A scene Of considerable excitement oe-
Cured yesterday morning at the office Of
the Adams Express Company, on Chestnut
street. About nine O'Clock a couple of gen
tlemen were quietly walking down to their
respective places of business when they
were suddenly startled by the suppressed
yet distinct cry Of "Let me out; Pm dying. :"
The words came in the shrill voice OF a
child, and as no children were near, 1t was
evident that the cause Of the cry was con-
tanned In a large suspicious looking
box which stood on the pavement
in front Of the express office, and
when was marked Robert Swan,
New Castle, Delaware" The box was
seized and turned upon its side, when it was
observed that its contents fell with II, and
the voice, which, it was now plainly evident
to the crowd that had assembled, came from
the inside, cried, "Oh don't; you hurt me.
Let me out" Excitement was now at fever
heat. Threats of lynchlng the party who
had shipped the box were freely uttered,
and in few moments the whole neighbour
hood became aware Of the fact that the lost
boy, Charlie Ross. had been found In box
a. the express Office. Capitalists and clerks,
proprietOrs and porters, rushed to the
scene by scores, and soon the crowd became
so dense that the street cars were unable to
move, and the whole square was blockaded
by ankle US iEquirers and swearing jshus.
Some shouted TO burst open the box; 9TH
ers exclaimed 1t would be illegal; many
booted the idea of stopping to inquire about
its legality, and added, 'the boy will be
dead before YOU get 1t open" Finally,
Warren, who keeps the restaurant on the
corner, appeared with an axe, and
the crowd formed q circle, while he
went at the box with the axe.
You could hear the leaves on the
trees futter overhead, and every stroke of
the axe made was distinctly heard OF the
corner below, while ''Pm dying; hurry !"
came from the inside In faint voice. The
top is loose-another stroke and off 1t flies.
A hundred pairs of ewes anxiouslY peer into
the box, and in the corner, peacefully and
calmly, uttering a moan Of supreme hsppi-
ness, lies-sn imported short-nosed hog.
Sold and such sell is not upon record,
while but a few "initiated" only, imagine
for a moment that all the furore was
created by that quiet little gentleman lean
ing calmly against the awning pole, twenty
feet away, and uttering not word. 1t was
Zera Semon, the king of ventriloquists.-

AHInt for our Amateurs,

During the approaching summer season
It is Anticipated that the monOtoDy of the
long dull evenings will be varied by some
entertainments by our dramatic and musical
amateurs. Those given last season met
with great success and afforded much plea
sure. We would suggest to some Of our
leading amateurs that the production here
Of the new comic opera 'Dollie," would
meet with great favor. This opera,
the Joint effort Of Messrs Bridges Smith
and Arthur L. Wood, of Macon, who are
well known 10 this city. has been produced
there with the greatest success. We are
sure our amateurs could present it with
equal effect The favor with which "Pene-
lope, or the Milkman's Bride" was received
here a few weeks since induces US TO believe
that sprightly little opera like "DOllie"
would take equally as well, and would sug-
gest that some effort be made to secure the
privilege.

a Needless AIar1-A Hard Run OF
rhe RIreuaen for Nothing.


Abou. twenty minutes TO twelve O'Clock
last night, bright light was discovered by
parties on Whitaker street, nesr the Bay,
Illuminating the southern horizon, which
was uumistakablE the reflection from some
fire several miles out in the country. Al
most Immediately after this light was OBJ
served en- alarm sounded from station No
80. corner OF Wayne and West Broad
streets, which brought out the IRE
department. The BaTtOws went SIS far as
Henry and Dray1Ou streets, when, discOv-
ering the FIRE was IN the country, and
considerable distance beyond the city limits,
they returned, as also did the Werner Hook
and Ladder Company. The Waivers were
also out in good time, and proceeded be-
yond Whitaker and New Houston streets,
when they stopped, disguised, and returned
10 their quarters.
The fremen very naturally felt fncensed
At their being needlessly called out, and the
individual who unnecessarily brought them
out By giving the alarm was severely de-
uOunced. Whoever the party Is the
fact that he summoned the department at
an uuseemlY hour, and caused a hard task
upon the horses for q FIRE 8 long distance
beyond the city limits, shows be is Lot 70 be
trusted with q key and an investigation
should be made by the proper authorities
70 ascertain who he is. The giving OF an
unnecessary slsrm is equslly as culpable as
sounding a false alarm, and the party so
violating the ordinances should be pun
fshed 70 the same extent.
The fire wEs in the direction Of Mon-gCH-
cry. and may possibly have been in Kings
