Mr.. B. F. Busey, in Opequon Dis
trict, suffered the loss of many of his
geese, ducks and chickens in some
way for some time past. A den of
foxes was suspected of carrying off the
poultry. Mr.. Jacob M. Vanmetre
took four pounds of dynamite last
week and exploded it in an opening
in the rocks on ridge near the Opeq-
uon. The force tore up the rocks for a
number of feet, disclosing large cave
and a number of dead fowls. 1t is
thought the force killed the foxes, as
no poultry has been missed since and
there are no further indications OF
Mr.. Reynard.

So, the Offices are what the Peoples
Ticket want. The Republicans want
" change" to higher motives than
the mere patronage of the Office
Some people are so imbued with the
idea of political office that they can't
rise to any higher purpose than hold
ing office, probably because they could
never live without an Office. 1t is
not life or death matter with the
Republicans; they are all we'll known
men; will do their duty honestly and
faithfully, and the people will have
nothing to regret should they entrust
corporation affairs to their hands.

THE CITY COUNCIL, BY VOTE oF5 TO =,
DECIDEs TO ABOLISH TTIEM-ELECTIoN
RETURNS TO BE CANyAssED TO-DAY.
The city council met in regular session
yesterday afternoon, with the mayor and
full council present. The only matter
ofany Importance which came up was the
petitions Of John L. Leer, w. e, Graves
and George Holland for licenses 10 run
variety theaters. The first two applied TO
institutions already in operation and
the last TO one which it was proposed TO
open near the foot Of Houston street.
BY vote of FIVE to two the council de-
clined to grant either petition. This ac-
ton will result in closing the Theater
Comique on the corner of Main and
Second street ana the variety near the
foot of Main. The aldermen who voted
against the continuation of the licenses
were Mulkey, Barter, Daggett, Ferguson
and Brownson; those for granting the
licenses, Alexander and Haymaker. Each
of the petitioners had deposited S25 in
payment Of the tax for one quarter. This
was ordered refunded. The city council
win meet again this afternoon and can
yass the election returns. The new adj
ministration will probably be installed at
the next regular meeting of the council,

The crowd, Not the building, Oaved.
An amusing scene occurred at the city
hall Yesterday afternoon. The council
was in that halliday mood which dull
routine inspires, when suddenly rum
bling, crushing sound was heard. One
startling fear seized all--that the build
ing was falling in. The benches outside
the bar were comfortably filed with spec
tators, and 10 an instant the doorway was
darkened by tapping coat.tails. The al.
dermen were ON their feet 10 the twin.

Down the stairway poured the crowd, one

After nearly all had reached the grount
an investigation was instituted which
developed that the hall was still intact
The origin ef the peculiar sound wa

The audience slowly fled back up tn
