Successful Entertainment {.

The second dramatic and musical en-.
tertainment, given by Good Intent Di.
vision, No. 3. S. of r., took place last
evening at Odd Fellows Hall and was a
decided success. The temperance drama
" At Last" as presented by members Of
theDivision. was we'll received and after
each act rounds of applause greeted the
actors. The lesson in the play is good,
depicting as it does the folly of drink and
gambling. Mr.. Vallyon, as Frank
Thompson, sustained his part to per-
fection, especially where he strikes his
wife in his drunken frenzy, which was
very realistic and hard to beat by any
amateur.
MontrOse Benedict as "Mose,"
brought down the house by his spright-
y acting and faithful conduct to his
master. The other characters deserv-
ing of special mention were Miss Laura
DeVere as Ruth Montgomery" Mr..
Henry Ashton az "Hans Christopher"
Paul Delaney AZ Charles Scranton"
Chris Dwight as "Bill Morgan" and
Warren Ferrell as "Thos. W rem, "tht
detective. The entire performance was
first class and replete with new scenery
painted especially tor this play, and
procured from Philadelphia. The same
company will play at New Castle in tht
near future.

ously wounded on Saturday night, while
returning home from an entertainment
at kiaDeDsi, tie particulars of the
affray being about as follows During
the progress of an entertainment at the
above place, given by the colored people,
q party Of drunken roughs entered the
building and C eated some disturbance
before the close, but no serious outbreak
was anticipated and they were quietly
told to observe order, which they did to
certain extent After the entertain
ment was over, the drunken gang,
spelling for a fight, became boisterous
and raised row, when general fight
ensued ,duringwhich several Of the party
received numerous bruises, Finally,
those who were attacked dispersed and
started to run, pursued by the angry
roughs, who opened fire on the retreat
ing crowd and several shots were reck-
lessly discharged. One of the balls
struck Guerdon Charles and entered his
abdomen, inflicting serious if not .
fatal injury. He was picked up and
taken to his home, where Drs. Booth
and Chandler were summoned to attend
his injuries. The physicians state that
the man is in . very critical condition.
1t is stated that the man who fired the
fatal shot ia named Crouch, bIt no
arrests have yet been made. 1t is also
