AT The Grand.

"The Lights O. London" drew crowded
house at the Grand last evening, and in the
rear of the theater many people stood.
The play was put on in an elegant manner.
and drew forth much applause. The scenic
effects are grand in the extreme, and could
not well be improved upon. Of the com
pany itself too much cannot be said. There
is not a poor player in it, and in several
cases some of them were called to the foot
lights after the curtain went down. The
play is thrilling one in all It's details, and
was put on in the best possible manner.

to SUIT the judge, and he raped for order.
Neither of the clerks noticed it and con-

Shakespeare VS.. the Bible.

The residents Of Smyrna will recog-
nize in George II. Phmbus the bright
little lad who lived with his father in
this town twelve years ago. A New
York special to the Baltimore american
of Wednesday, says: George r. Phe-
bus, a lawyer, son of Rev. DR.. Geo. A.
PhGbus, retired Methodist clergy
man, living in Brooklyn and formerly
of Baltimore, has mysteriously disap-
peared. His wife is an actress, whose
only known stage name is Hageman.
The couple were married last Nav.
against the wishes of the parents of the
bridegroom, who was headstrong and
inclined to gay life. 1t is reported that
PhRbus, when he would 90 home and
find his wife studiOusly reading her
parts, would say to her: Here, drop
that sOul-destroying trash and read the
Bible When she declined, he would
read to her from the good book until
she would leave him in disgust. Their
disagreements, it is alleged, finally led
to separation last October, when Mrs.
Phebus left Brooklyn and took apart
ments in East Seventeenth street, this
city. Phebus tried to induce her to
return, but she refused. This made
him desperate and he left for parts un-
known, and no olew has been obtained
as to his whereabouts. The last seen
of him was on Monday evening (28th
ult.), when he babe his brother, a
lawyers clerk, good -bye.in front of the
Continental Hotel, this city. Mrs.
PhGbus is supposed to be with her
parents in Toronto
The New York Tribune of yesterday
contained later intelligence from Mr..
Phebus announcing his arrival at Liv-
erpool and promising to write a letter
explaining everything. Until the reas-
suring cablegram his whereabouts was
a mystery even to his relatives, Phm-
bus left a note for his brother dated
two days before be went away, stating
that he was so deeply involved" that
he could not get out in time to save
himself; that he was going away and
did not known where he should turn
up; that he was going to reclaim him
self, and that no woman should be his
ruin as one had been.

The Episcopal Sunday School.

1t is not without qualification to the
members of St. Peters Church as well
as the community at large to see a
new departure in the Sunday school
organization and work at that church
that is already felt in a stronger pulsa-
ton of life, and will doubtless be much
more so when the new machinery gets
in worrying order. For some time past,
we do not know just how long, there
has been only the semblance of an or
ganizatiOn, the duties of the SCHOOL in
their execution deVOlVing ON the rec
tor and a few faithful teachers. The
school dwindled, as it very naturally
would, because of u lack of associated
lnterest-that interest in numbers in
one person coming in contact with
another. The younger members of the
congregation other than those excepted
above having no specific duties. grad
qally swelled the ranks of the absen-
tees, and the day perhaps worse than
wasted. Rev. Mr.. GOrdOn's Sunday
afternoon engagements at Clayton made
II necessary to have some one in charge
of the school during his absence, and
with this came the idea aud pressure
for a more complete and thorough or
ganization to put it on the basis of
modern affective Sunday school work.
Accordingly, an organization has been
effected as follows, which gives promise
Of decided success
Superintendent, VIM. A. Cummins.
Assistant superintendent, Edgar
Spruance.
Lady Superintendent, Mrs. M. X.

Lady Superintendent Of Infant

Another violin and violincello will
be introduced as soon as ARRANGEMENTS
can be effected, the oornet and one
violin being used on Sunday last. this
being the first instance of violin being
put in place Of worship in our town.
The Sunday schools of all the
churches will doubtless find it benefit
to their respective organizations ifthey
can find something to engage and hold
the young people to the work of the
church in some form.

One Of the most pleasant social
events that has occurred In Thorough
fare Neck for u long time was the
crystal wedding or fifteenth marriage
anniversary Of Mr.. and Mrs. |. II.
Staats, at their home. on Monday
evening, Dec. 28th. Early in the
evening arrivals began and continued
till eight o'clock, when the house was
literally full of guests, some from Mary
land and Pennsylvania as well as our
own State the number present being
about one hundred and fifty. Not
withstanding the crowded condition of
the rooms there was not apparent any
stiffness or discomfort. Each hour
seemed full of entertainment for every
one. Some of the time was occupied
by singing the selections ranging from
the sweet old hymns of Zion, in which
all could join, to those innocent songs
of mirth by the more skilled in sing
ing.
Work in the dining room began at
an early hour and continued till late
ere each guest had paid his respects to
the handsome collection of refresh
ments served. Each company upon
leaving the dining room passed up
stairs, where, spread out upon tables, a
large number of beautiful tokens of
best love and esteem were viewed.
The presents were mostly of glassware
and seemed to include almost every
thing procurable in that line, made in
the latest styles and varied in color
When all had gathered i'm the parlor
again, the host introduced Mr.. Terry,
who, for an hour, amused the COM
pany by an exhibition of his wonder
full power of imitation of sounds by the
use of the vocal organs. Mr.. T. is a
master of his art. The bride and
groom then took their places in the
floor, attended by the same bridesmaid
and grOOmsman who first stood with
them, and in response to an impro-
vised ceremony by Rev. l. d. johnson,
their pastor, expressed themselves,
after fifteen years experience. satisfied
with the matrimonial estate, and were
pronounced still man and wife to-
gether.
At a late hour the company dis
persed, the time having flown swiftly
by, so great was the enjoyment. The
large gathering, the numerous pres
ents and the success Of the whole affair
indicates how completely Mr. and Mrs.
Stats have won their way to the es-
TEEN and love of the community. D.

Winter in the Neck.

The residents of the " Necks" are an
eminently social people, and when
the season is so they can't work, tney
had just as lief play rs not. The Win
ter months always go round merrily
with them, and why shouldn't It when
there are so many turkeys fattening
for the roast, and oysters are counted
by the gallons. At the very start of
these neighbOrhOOd dinners or per-
maps more properly suppers, man OF
SeversOn's Neck had aD unaGeountable
accident. When he started for home
the moon was shining, and nOtwith-
standing the road was clear be ran into
