the report was not generally believed, il
was thought best to be yigilant, and several

asked that special care be taken Of the re-
turns-a request that the clerks OF the

THE BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY.
The contract with this company was
taken up. The President announced that
Mr.. Curtis was detained by illness, and
that he had asked to have a card read
which had been published in the State.
Objection was raised and the card was then
read. During the discussion Captain Piz-
zini stated that while in Danville he was
told that they paid $40 per annum, while
here the charge was $50. He could not
understand this.
Mr.. Higgins moved to amend by con-
tracting that the Telephone Company only
charge the city departments S25 per annum
for the use OF telephones. Mr.. Higgins
thought the city ought to be indemnltied
for the great franchises voted the telephone
company.

the amount to he charged the departments

" silver King, at the Theatre Last
Night.

A fine play beautifully acted seemed to
be the general verdict OF the "Silver
King" as presented at the Theatre last
evening by j. Fl. Haverly's company.
The old Richmond favorite and citizen
Of Confederate times, Mr.. +. G.. Bangs. ap-
peared In the title-r6le, and most decided
success he made of it, His acting was for.
eible and natural throughout, and he was
called before the curtain at the end Of
almost every act. The part is just
suited to his whole-souled, generous ma
ture, and he carried his audience with him
throughout the play. He was ably sup
ported by Miss Helen Blythe, Messrs.
Brien, Ross, Joyce, Vincent, and, in fact,
the entire company, which is large and
well selected. The stage-mountlng was
excellent, although, owing TO its being the
first night, the scenery did not move as
smoothly rs II will tonight.
The play Is melo-drama OF decided
strength, has q good moral, and through
five long acts awakcns increased interest
TO the end. 1t will be repeated each night
during the remainder Of the week, and
those who enjoy really fine and moral
emotional drama would do well TO see
"The Silver King" The Theatre will
doubtless be crowded during the rest OF
this company's engagement here. The
audience last evening was good, but not
equal to the merits OF the performance.
