To The Editor Of he Register:
Satisfactorily the quartette of public
spirited individuals composing the Official
Executive Boycott Committee OF the Ohio
Valley Trades Assembly" rose from their
childlike slumbers, anOinted themselves
with arnica, adjusted the patent kick-proOi
rubber shields which they always carry
concealed about their persons, and with
bosOms filled with high and holy aspira,
tons and stale beer, they sailed forth up
ON their GRAND of mercy. After calling
upon several of the business men of the
city and finding them cold and unrespOn,
Siye TO their earnest and disiReIeSted ap,
peals, they finally halted before the place
of business OF citizen who
had been proven guilty of the heinous and
inhuman crime of advertising in the morn
ing papers.
They had been watching his course with

show him the error of his ways and en-
deavOr to win him back to the paths OF
virtue and rectitude. 1t was with some
miSgiving that these noble hearted apostles
of freedom reached the office; IN fact the
chairman of the committee Us he iOndled
his latest bruise, resolved to stand nearest
the door, so that if the sinner should prove
refractory he could excuse himself without
trouble.
Remembering that it was all for the cit,
liens good, they dispensed with the form
atty ofSending in their cards and walked
right in. He was at home, and rs he
glanced up and saw the benevolent eX-
preston upon their faces, he inStinctively
guessed the object Of their visit; but sc
deep was he in his degradation that he
gave 10 sign Of repentance, but in the
coolest manner possible he requested them
to take seats.
PrOfting by past experience, they de-
clined to be seated, assuring him that Their
business wouldn't require much time fol
its transaction. He then, as if to brave
his fate, inquired what their business was,
1t this question the visitors looked al
each other, and then, with faces
in which the deepest sorrow was re,
vealed, coupled With the most righteous
solicitation, they looked at the President

THE MENDELssOHN CONCERT.
The Club Greeted with the Old-Time r


The Club Greeted with the OId-Time I'm
thusiasm.
The concert given by the Mendelssohr
Quintette Club, last evening, was artist
cally what its concerts always are-a mu'
steal triumph. The programme was not
strictly adhered to, partially because Of
the illness of Mr.. John +. Rhodes, solo
violinist, and partially because of Mis-
Ryan changing her number in the
second part, but for all this il
was none the less interesting. Mr..
John Marquardt, the violinist who ap'
peared in lieu of Mr. Rhodes WAS no less
an artist than the last named gentleman,
and his Interpretation of the numbers
falling TO him was greeted with storm OF
applause.
The event of the evening WAS undoubt-
edly the Beethoven Quartette, op. II. No.
4. The number was rendered in very
satisfactory manner, and the audience was
liberal in its demonstrations of ap'
proval. Mr.. William Schadc's flute solo,
al NcntO," by Briccialdi, 80 pleased his
hearers that m encore was demanded, ia
which the artist responded with q beauti-
full Scherzo. In the second part LOtti's
"Bocca, BOcca, Bella" was on the pro-
gramme for Miss Ryan, but she
substituted for the number two songs,
Chadwick's Sweet Winds that Blow
and To>ti's Goodbye" rendering each
in charmidg manner.
In Mr.. John Marquardt, who, a. we
have said, was substituted for Mr. Rhodes,
the club has violinist of rare finish and
skill. His number was the "Othcllo'
Fantasia, by Ernst, instead of Ole Bulls
THE Mothers Prayer" printed on the
programme for Mr.. Rhodes, and so well did
he interpret it, that the audience demand
ed double encore, the artist responding,
first with some Variations by Leonard,
and again with Romance by Nieuxtemps
That matchless 'cellest, Mr.. Blumenberg
held the audience spell-bound with Dunk
ler's "Danse Railroads.&c., and on being
recalled he gave 'Berceuse," by the same
author. His technique il perfection, and
his interpretations OF whatever he under
takes are beyond criticism. The Arion APP
pearcd twice in.the first part singing Moeh-
rings wild Wind and Waves" and in
the second, Braun's "All Alone" and
Speidel's Farewell" Prof. Schocky con
Quoted, and the members were appauded
TO the echo.

FOR THE PEOPLE.
A Capital Addition to the Enterprise Of Our
City.

City.
At this season of the year, when the
restaurant business is at its height, it at.
fords the REGISTER pleasure to say a
good word for that veteran caterer, Mr..
Martin Thornton, and TO recommend his
dining rooms to all classes of citizens
as the best the city affords Mr.. Martin
is striking example of what industry,
skill and perseverance will do. He open
ed his restaurant away back in 1873, when
war prices were still prevalent In those
days an Oyster stew cost 40 cents,
and meal from 30 TO 10
cents, but Martin saw = way
of making both ends meet at lower figures
and his - cent meals and stews were
launched into the wOrld-tO the mutual
benefit OF, the public and himself. Res
taurants have sprung up and passed away
by the dozen since that time,
but the capital still exists-the best
place in the city for all classes,
rich or poor alike. To the transient
stranger it is of peculiar value, and the
Capital is known all over our State, and
in all the adjoining region OF Ohio and
West Virginia. The oyster season Is now
at its height, and lovers of the bivalye:
should call on Martin.
