Red-handed Crime.

While Rev. Father Miskiewitz, Pastor
OF Polish church at the South Side,
Pitteburg, was turning around to address
his congregation at the close of mass on
Sunday morning, bullet was fired at
him through side window of the church
The missile passed within a few inches OF
the priest and 1attened itself against the
opposite wall. The priest seemed quite
cool and waved his flock to their seats,
but more than hundred of the m rushed
outside. No trace was seen, however, of
the would-be assassin. 1t is supposed the
attempt grew out of trouble which has ex-
listed between different factions in the
church for some time.

"The Little Tycoon" was given at the
Opera House Last evening for the first
time In this city, by q company from the
Temple Theatre, Philadeiphia, before a
large audience. The argument is excel
lent, and claims the attention of the
audience throughout, while the entire
opera is filed with bright and pretty airs,
prominent among which are "You Cawn't
do 1t, ye Know" and "The American, :"
both OF which are given by Mr.. James
Mas.
The scenery, costumes and mechanical
effects are the finest ever brought to this
city, and under the powerful rays of the
CALCIUM light were more than beautiful.
Miss Hattie Arnold, as Miss Hurrican,
sustained the character in an admirable
manner; her dramatic action is excellent,
her voice perfect, and she proved herself
decidedly the best of the the lady singers.
Miss Damon ss Dolly Dimple is sprightly
and vivacious, and the few songs belong
ing 70 the character are given by her in a
satisfactory manner. The character of
violet was sustained by Miss Zita Gaines,
and although che performed it well, her
voice seemed weak, and suffered In COM
parison with some of the others. The
male voices are good, and Messrs. Mas,
Darrell, Flint and Harvey, not only sang,
but also performed their parts in a man
ner worthy of the highest commendation.
The chorus is strong, and for the short
time the company has been formed, well
trained, while the orchestra, under the
able direction of Mr.. Fred Gagel, render
ed the music in the most perfect manner.
The entire performance was very satis.
factory all through, and there is no
doubt but the closing performance this
evening, will be witnessed by fully as
large an audience as was present last
night.
Next Saturday night the Pat Rooney
Company will appear and present a new
Irish farcical comedy entitled "Pat's
Wardrobe"
Monday and Tuesday nights the Garlic
ton Opera Company will appear in the
great NewYork success ''Nanon," in
which Mr.. Carleton the English baritone,
will sustain the original part played by
him at the New York Casino for 100
nights.
