The Trouble in the Pop Company Be- |
coming Serious.

The Trouble in the Pop Company Be-
coming Serious.
NEW YORK, March 24.-It was reported
on the Square last night that George For
tescue and Miss Irene Perry, members of
the Rice "Pop" Company, had thrown up
the contract while performing in Pitts
burgh, and were on their way to this city,
The trouble which caused the sudden
breach has been long standing and was u
surprise to no one. 1t originated, it is
said, from the dsagreeable manner
in which John A, Mackay, the lead
n man and stage manager,
treated the company. He made himself
distasteful towards Miss Perry, and their
when at the close of one of the perform
ances he reprimanded her for some
fancied misconduct. The lady charged
him with showing favoritism to one of
the other lady members, which Mackay
denied. Fortescue sided with Miss
Perry, and both cancelled their engage
ments. 1t is said that this is by no means
the end, as Miss May Stempler has notified
the manager that she would leave to-day.
Several other designations were expected
to follow that will seriously interfere
with the company's dates. None of the
actors who were appealed to for informa-
ton had seen either Miss Perry or Fortes-
cue, and it was the prevailing impression
that they had not reached the city. Mr.
Marcus Mayer, the business manager of
Mr.. Abbey, told the reporter that he had
been notified that the report, as it reached
here, was true. Both the parties, who
are well known to him, have not yet pre-
| sented themselves, but it is very likely
that upon their arrival the lady will have
| an interesting story to tell.

'e'e'o'oio never 'hought OF joining the old
lodge To increase the number of Odd
Fellows in this city is probably the main
object of the movement, and, with proper
effort, the object is likely to be attained.
The old lodge is very strong institution,
numbering about one hundred and thirty
five active members.
Mayor Mertz, OF Mound City, died at
his home there Sunday morning He died
OF abcess of the stomach with which he had
been suffering for some time He had been
Frustrated about month before his death,
and week or ten days ago his suffering
was 50 great that here solved to submit 10
surgical operation. Little if any hope was
entertained by the surgeons at the time,
that the operation would save his life,
though it might afford temporary relief,
which it did. His remains were inferred
yesterday morning, at Beech Grove Cine
tary, accompanied there by several hundred
friends. Deceased was about slxty-eight
years old, have lived in Mound City over
twenty years and was one of the most pop
ular men in the place. He leaves three or
four grown children.
Another little Jail delivery occurred
Sunday night, at the City Jail. Two negroes
got out, one of them was Las Price, habit
ual breaker of the law, and the other, a
man named Ray, who had been arrested by
Officers Taylor and Tyler on suspicion of
being thief. The fellows got out of
their cell by pryiug the lock off with an
iron bar that had beel left there inadvert-
emily. They got into The cell from which
the three prisoners escaped last week, and
got out through the same hole those fellows
did. The delivery was discovered by the
officers mentioned soon at ter it had occurred,
but all search for the fugitives proved
fruitless. Ray had some new clothing,
silk handerchiefs and other things about
him, which lie was believed to have stolen
in Du Quon.
The drowning of the little son of Mr..
Frank Shafter yesterday afternoon will ex
cite much sympathy in the community for
the bereaved father, who has, within the
last year or so, lost his wife and two little
children. The affair of yesterday was pc
cular. Mr.. Shafter lives in house on
Seventh street near Walnut. There is no
water in the yard at all, but the floor of the
cellar under the house ia covered with
water to the depth of only about eight
inches. The little fellow went down the
back steps and was playing near the en-
trance to the cellar door, all by himself.
Two young girls were sitting in the door Of
the house, but they did not notice the
child's absence until Mr.. Shafter came
home and inquired for him. Mr.. S.
searched and was the first to discover the
little body laying face downward in the
cellar, and quite dead, near the cellar door,
where the child had evidently fallen and
died with hardly struggle. The discovery
was terrible blow to Mr.. Skater, who has
had much more than his share of the bit
terness of life within the lest year or
eighteen months. The funeral occurs to.

The Nation and some other newspapers have
pitched into Julian Hawthorne because he

SUNSET IN THE NORTH BEHIND PINES.
Against the steel-blue sky the pines
Stand outlined, dark and weird and tall;
Low down. beyond the suns red ball
Between their forest pillars shines;
The sunset sky their boughs enfold
CLEANS as in some cathedral old;
Beyond the pillared nave, o'erhead,
A window flames with mystic red.
DRAGoN-FLIEs.
Blue as though fallen from the skies,
The pool dreams in the gorse-clad heath;
The yellow nevis dart swift beneath;
Above, the wheeling dragon-flies
Fash in their shining coats of mail,
Or with spread wings slow float or sail
Through the MINDLESS air: live gems they
seem.
That late in the earth's bowels did gleam.
APPROACHING SKYE, FROM THE NORTH.
The sweeping seas with foam are white.
The Isle of Mist before US lies,
Pale As the blue of morning skies
Ere quickened by the suns full might.
LO! there Duuvegan's crags; there
Macleod's Maids, delicately fair;
And. >hadowed faint in harebel blue.
The dim Cuchullins haunt our view.
MOONLESS NIGHT OFF SKYE.-AUGUST.
The heavens with sprinkIed star-dust hang
Above the phosphorescent sea.
Where swim meduse uminously.
Live-purple, green. The casual clang
OF swaying chains within the boat
The silence only breaks, save note
OF passing gull. or the dull sound
Where whales blow DER yon herring
ground.
