AMUSENI ENTS.

The popular opera "Iolanthe" will be
presented at the Opera House by e. E.
Rice's opera company this evening. The
music OF 'Iolanthe" is not of the ear
tickling order which prevails in "Pinafore,"
but there is a certain rythmical swing, the
melodies are well formed, the harmonies are
thoroughly worked out, and the orchestral
scoring is delightful. The libretto is, of
course, In Gilbert's usual vein. The wit is
brilliant, the satire keen, while the con-
struction is similar to that which has per-
vaded all this authors works, from the first
to the present. The most absurd ideas and
situations occur, side by side with the
gravest topics, and the argumentative
manner in which they are written gives an
appearance of possibility to the most ridicu
lous assertion.
The concert tomorrow night at the Opera
House by the Weber Quartette, assisted by
Miss Lizzie Arbuckle, sonrano, and M. Ar
buckle, the noted cornetist, will be a rich
musical treat. That the citizens appreciate
this fact is apparent from the appearance of
the box sheet. There is still a number of
good seats to he had.
Milton Mobiles, with his wife and strong
company of comedians, will appear here in
''Intel views" at the Opera House on We'd

LANDLORD AND TENANT
A CASE BEFORE JUSTICE
O'NEILL TO-DAY.
A ONE HUNDRED DOLLAR AWARD
A Pastor Surprised on the Eighth Ami
verssry Of aIs Residence in Whining
ton-Local Jottings.

On the 18th of January, 1888, Councilman
Robert Q. Shaw, owner Of the building at
Second and Jackson street, served notice
upon William Dollard, tenant, to quit the
premises on the 25th of the coming March,
Dollard questioned the signature but
did not take the necessary precau.
tion to ascertain the legality of the
notice. He therefore made up his mind re
would not move, and he didn't.
Shaw, laboring under the impression that
Dollard intended moving, rented the house
to a man named John Barton, who, when
he found that Dollard would not move,
notified Shaw that he (Barton) would look
to Shaw for the payment of Sl00 for breach
of contract.
Shaw then had writ of ejectment issued
against Dollard and the case was heard be-
fore Squire O'Neill this morning.
Charles B. Lore, Esq, represented the
landlord. He claimed that the law had
been obeyed to the letter in every particular
and asked that the Squire give decision in
favor of his client and award 800 damages.
L. c. Vandegrift, ESQ , contended that
the law clearly stated that the notice to
quit shall be such that the tenant can act
advisedly on it at once" He claimed that
the law was not followed, from the fact that
when the notice was served the man who
served 1t could not state positively whether
the name attached was Shaw's signature or
not
The Squire ruled that the defendant in
the case was at fault and awarded the plain
tiff, Shaw 500 damages, the costs In the
case to be paid by Dollard.

AN ANNIVERSARY.
Delaware Avenue baptist Church Decor.
ated With Flowers.

Delaware Avenue baptist Church Decor
ated With Flowers.
Eight years ago the Rev. |. N. HaIdeman,
took charge of the Delaware Avenue Baptist
Church and assumed the duties of pastor.
That event was therefore duly celebrated
yesterday by the members of the congrega-
tion, the arrangements being left in the
hands of the ladies' of the Mite Society
The pulpit platforms were handsomely
decorated with flowers. In the rear of the
platform large pyramid of potted flowers,
about eight feet high, was constructed. On
either end of the platform was handsome
bouquet of cut flowers placed on stands.
On the lower platform, directly in front of
the pulpit, was square urn of flowers and
on either end large urns of tropical plants,
in the centre of which was placed Gala
lily.
On the reading desk was place a large
pulpit Bible on the outside of which was in
scribed: Presented to the Delaware Avenue
Baptist Church by the Ladies' Mite Society,
April 8, 1885,"
Accompanying the Bible was handsome
copy of the "Service of Song" bound in
Turkey leather and with gilt edges. On
the back, in gilt letters, is The following
"Pulpit d. A. B. c., April 8, 1888"
The arrangements of the flowers, the pro-
curing of the books was all total surprise
to the popular pastor, who had no
hint or thought OF the surprise
In store for him until he stepped
upon the,platform. He had forgotten entirely
the fact of the day being an anniver-
sary of his pastorate, and the work of ap-
preciating hands was therefore more keeniy
appreciated and enjoyed. No special ser
vices were held, but after the morning ex-
ercises Mr.. Haldeman received the hearty
congratulation of the members of his grow
ing charge.

Conflicting Statements.

A young man named Trask, employed by
Forepaugh's advertising party, on Saturday
complained that he was defrauded of a
dollar at the Grand Union Hotel, while
getting two dollar note changed. He
charged that the proprietor withheld one
dollar and then pitched the young man out
of the place when he asked for his money.
Henry Blouth, the proprietor OF the hotel,
denies the allegation of fraud, says the
young man only gave him one-dollar note
and was not thrown out until he became
impudent. Mr.. Kelly, Forepaugh's press
agent, called at the GAZETTE office shortly
before noon to-day and stated that the
Misunderstanding between young Trask
and Mr.. Blouth had been settled satisfact
orily.

How an Idea Originated.

Last summer Adam Forepaugh, the pro-
prietor of the Great Forepaugh Show visited
the Southern States with his exhibition.
One day he saw an ancient mule team,
covered by rope harnesses and driven by a
venerable darkey drawing wagon, to which
paint was a stranger, and dust, dirt and
decay fast friends. In the wagon were
several bales of cotton, and upon these were
Sc. ted a number of colored people, yc ung
and old, clad in garments of many colors.
They were singing the songs which have
rendered their race famous. Interested him
self, the great Snowman thought, as he
turned away, that such scene presented
upon the streets of any city would be of
interest. qe sent an agent after the group
who bought the mules, harness and wagon,
and even some of the dresses of the party,
which were sent to the winter quarters of
the show This spring they were brought
out again, together with troupe of genuine
southern negroes, and the old wagon and its
surroundings now form feature in Fore
paugh's street parade, which will be seen
here on Monday, April %.

The Augustinlan sooIety,s Affairs.

IT was announced yesterday in the Roman
Catholic churches at Lawrence, Mass, that
the Augustinian Society would file a petit
tion in insolvency, it being the intention to
abandon all efforts to reduce the indebted
ness to depositors in the Augustinian Say
ings Institution by making collections.
Rev. G. E. McEvoy, Governor of the order,
says this course will be pursued because the
attachments on the church property would
not be relieved, and it was desired that all
creditors should share alike. There are ~
attachments, aggregating 100000. The in
debtedness to the depositors is S455, 900,
which, with the mortgages, makes the total
liabilities $569,000. The assets, consisting
of churches, parsonages and school build
ings, arc claimed to be S569, 900, but should
the property be sold by order of the court,
the depositors would realize scarcely 5 per
cent" Father McEvoy says "they will be
paid the full amount though it may take
many years for the final settlements"

DRAGGIN THE RIVER.
Efforts to Recover the BodIes he>.ec..
Whitaker and His Companions,


ELKToN, Md, April 9.-The boat In
which the Inflated Cecil N. Whitaker aud
his companions, Jefieris and the colored boy
sailed, was small fishing smack, such as is
used by the gillers for shad in the Chesa-
peake and Delaware bays. 1t was entirely
seaworthy, under ordinary circumstances
IL was last seen by Alexander Peoples, who
has charge of the railroad bridge at Hayre
de Grace, and was then under full sail on
the Susquehanna fats, heading toward
Turkey Point, which it would probably
have reached in safety, but it is supposed a
5nag was struck somewhere on the Susuue-
hanna flats and that the boat was blown
on to the Elk Neck shore of the North
east River by the strong wind which pre-
vailed at the time of the accident on Thurs
day evening. Carrot Cove is about three
or four miles below the town of Northeast.
Owing to the fact that the wind was blowing
SO freshly on Thursday evening the people
on MIR. Whitaker's farm at Turkey Point
thought he and his companions would not
return that night, and those at Havre de
Grace, knowing they had started for Elk
Neck, were under no apprehension for their
safety. 1t was not till the boat was found
| late on Friday that anyone was aware OF the
accident.
George P. Whitaker of Principle Fur
mace, the father of the drowned man, imme-
| diately took measures to recover the bodies
of his son and the others, and to this end
one of the large hauling seines used at
| fishery near Carrot Cove, where the boat
| went on shore, was called into requisition
/ with the hope that the lead line thereof,
| which reached to the bottom of the river in
| some cases at a considerable distance from
the shore, might catch them. Up to late
hour tonight the efforts had been abortiye.

Place-Notes of Visit to Wilmington.
lRoXbury, Mass, ADV Yocate, April H.
We spent the earlier days of last week
very pleasantly In Delaware's chief city
quiet, slow going old Wilmington. A more
staid and unpretentious place it would be
hard TO find, and yet withai, there is a GER
tain charm in the absolute lack of hustle
and excitement and the apparently pre-
meditated leisureliness of the town and its
people that interests the stranger accus-
toned to the active life of Northern cities.
Wilmington's population consists of but
two classes; the sober and industrious arti-
sans who are dependent on their trades for
support, and the more fortunate people
who have succeeded in working their way
up to positions of comfort, II not of luxury,
by dint of hard labor and careful living
There are few very wealthy people there,
and absolutely no social display or ostenta-
ton. The one eminently proper thing
for the stranger to do is to take the Front
street horse car and ride out to the summit
Of Plunketts Hill TO see the residence Of
Hon. Thomas F. Bayard, Delaware's Sena-
tor and favorite son. 1t is a square man
sion of stucco, in the Southern style, with
lofty-pillared porch, fronting the town and
commanding magnificent view of the wide
expanse of Delaware Bay. There was
neither name nor number on the door, upon
the Intel of which was nailed horseshoe,
but noticed the inscriptian
"oUR SENATOR,
THOMAS F. BAYARD,"
deeply sunk into the upper face of the
horse-block at the foot of the steps.
