Quite number Of our Democratic breth-
rem announce themselves this week as VIC
tins on the sacrincial altar Of politics. We
.lv
word of every one of them that gets de-
feated In the Convention, and may take oc-
casion to do so anyhow.
The Hidden Hand Company which ap-
peared here last week Is regarded in that spe-
cialty As the best company that has appeared
here for long time, and competent to render
we'll all pieces IL presents. Its return to-
night and the presentation OF an immense
bill is assurance Of crowded house.
Mr. John Bielen berg received a letter this
week from Sun River stating that three cow
boys had eaten some wild parsnips about
noon one day recently, and that before $50
d. m two Of them were dead. The third was
saved by the most active exert.on OF physi-
clans. One of those who died was Tim
whose mother lives in Philipsburg. He was
employed for several years here by the Biel-
enberg boys, and they speak very highly Of
him. He was aged about % years.
whiteley's Hidden Hand Company, which
made such favorable impression in our city
last week, by special request have consented
to return and favor us with another of their
excellent eDtertai nmepts on FRIDAY evening
| May 9, at O'Neill's Theatre, on which occa-
sion will he preset ted Grand Double Com
edy Bill. and one which cannot but please
the most fastidious. The evenings enter
tainment will commence with the laugha6le
comedietta, entitled 1.-THE Little Rebel" in
Producing Mr.. Rob- V. Ferguson in one Of
his best representations, concluding with the
great New York sensation and rollicking
Irish comedy Of "Muldoon's Picnic" TIA 1t.
As will be seen by the proceedings fur
| nished by our legal reporter, the court house
question was argued at length Wednesday
and Thursday by able attorneys. Much pub
| lie interest was taken in the arguments, all
available authorities were cited, and the ar
Ruments covered the ground while the law
books covered the table. Judge Galbraith
took the question under advisement and ad-
journed court until Monday next. There is
much speculation as to what the decision
will he, those favoring aud those opposing
the project differing in their anticipations Of
the decision. That IL will be console ntious
one, from cold. blooded legal standpoint, is
universally conceded. 1t will probably be .
written decision
