threatened his residence Monday evening.

ms little boys savings bank and contents
stolen, ne concluded when he went out into
the country Monday to take his watch and
ms wife diamond ring with him, which
fact the family were not aware of The
money lost belonging to the church, lie
stated TO have been only a small amount.
In this connection Jordan Allen, pastor of
the A. NJ e. Church, sends the following
desire to say that the report in this
mornings RECoRD-UNIoN that the church
lost $500 in the fire Monday evening is a
mistake. 1t was So instead of $500. Ger
tainly, II we were able as church to have
IN our treasury $500 we would feel too
mean TO go the public to ask for donations.
But we have no means, and are now strug-
giing to be able to seat our church this
season.

CLUNIE OPERA HoUsE-The charming
opera, Bells of Bonneville" which is full
to the brim with beautiful melodies, is now
~
marked excellence. The chorus most of
its members being from Mapleson's late
company is specially good, and the or
chestration, under Navoni, is highly credit
able. The opera is richly mounted and
IN every way dramatically and unsteady
treat such as we do not often have here.
The opera will be repeated tonight, and
should have liberal patronage.
