 There has been of late quite good deal of building in the Ninth ward. While there is not what can be called boom in real estate or of buildings there, yet there has been a steady growth for some time. Within the last year Admiral street has been pretty well built up, and Gregory street is fast having all its vacant lots occupied. The streets above these have also been built on to consider able extent.
 John Wolf, the furrier, has nearly finished . new three story dwelling house on Gregory street on land bought of Joseph Sheldon. The four stury brick building on the cor ner of Dfxwell avenue and Foote which c. Richards has heon building is finished. The lower floor will be used as 8 grocery store by MT. Richards, while the rest of the building .Will be occupied by tenants.
 George l.. Austin has just finished the erection of large three-story dwelling on Gregory street, opposite the Winchester !. W. Bishop, the real estate dealer, has put up three tenement houses next to the school house. They are now occnpid. Within about 8 year seven new houses have been erected on this street. The Win~ okester school, c fine brick structure, is quite an ornament to the locality.
 It will not be long before all the vacant lots in the Ninth will be occupied.
 L. W. Robinson is preparing the plans for Dr. T. 1T. Munger's new residence on Pros- peet street. It will be frame house, old colonial in style, 45x45 feet, with hip roof; interior In hard woods.

had suffered intensely but patiently for
about seven months and seemed to long
for the day when she could quit this ten
ement of clay. she having obeyed the com-
mand. "Remembe thy Creator in the days
Of thy youth" She was converted to God
nearly two years ago and joined the M. E
Church as probationer, but her failing
health prevented her from uniting as 9
full member Of the church militant unit
she joined the Church Triumphant. Her
funeral was preached at the house by Rev
James Murray, and the remains inferred al
Bethel Church, large conoourse of sor.
rowing friends paying this last tribute OF
respect to her. The grave was covered
with floral wreaths.
The pulpit of st. Johns Church was
filled by the Rev. Geo. l.. Cook, of the
Presbyterian Church. Mr.. Cook is a ma
tive of this county, but is now from North
Carolina He is visiting relatives. It was
a great treat to his many friends to see

The wheat crop never presented a better
appearance than at this time. The fruit is
nearly total failure.
Some of the Democrats about this town

Entertainment at Flint Hill.

Entertainment at Flint Hill.
On Saturday evening, June 10th, we hai
the pleasure of attending an entertainment
gotten up by the amateur club of Flint
Hill school. And notwithstanding the
rain and mud there was full house.
| think all who were present will agree with
me in saying that it was most admirably
gotten up entertainment. that everybody
enj ,,yed it, ard that Mr.. Stuart Houff, the
manager and getter up of the affair, de-
serves great credit not only for his happy
selection OF pieces and characters. but
also for the excellent preparation evinced
by The rendering of their respective parts.
Aud, moreover, Mr.. Houff merits praise
for the training, experience and ease
which result to young people because their
appearing before the public. 1t would be
our delight to give an extended notice of
the pieces and characters, but both time
and space are wanting.
The program was long one and on the
Whole 1t was well rendered A few pieces
deserve especial notice, and among others
thu Goddess of Liberty, dialogue repre-.
setting the arts, sciences, agriculture.
manufactures, &c. Each actor was dress
ed in costume appropriate to its char.
ac;er.
The Glass Man, was an instructive as
well as amusing play and the performers
deserve creoit for acting so well their
respective parts. 1.-The Last Hymn by
Miss Sa1lie OFT, showed a careful prepare
tion and some dramatic talent. 1.-The
American Flag" by Mr.. Robt. O. Will
berger, was well delivered. "Gemima's
Advertisements" dialogue, was very
amusing, and was much appreciated as
was shown by the hearty applause of the
audience.
In addition to these pieces and others,
there were some pieces by quite small
boys and girls, and it is surprising how
we'll the little ones acquitted themselves.
The program was interspersed with good
vocal music by the whole club.
1t is to be hoped that this willnot be the
last entertainment of this kind, but that
Mr.. Houff, who is especially qualified for
such work, will at some time in the fu.

The Panama Canal.

PARIS, December 1.-THE Panama
Canal crisis and the success of the Rus
siau loan absorb exclusive attention
Financiers have hope that the schemes
of the canal committee will avert a
crisis. The Credit Foncier directors
maintain their refusal to advance funds
to bolster up the Panama Company
without an explicit guarantee from
government, with the assent of the
Chambers. The public subscription
closes tomorrow. There is small pros
pect that the bonds will be taken. Re-
ports that government will eventually
subsidize or give a guarantee for the
Panama Company are discredited.
Financial houses have their eyes open
to the fact that America might not
tolerate a conversion of the Panama
venture into State enterprise. De
Lesseps has his OVID schemes to have
the project go through, by making it an
international one. According to his
plan, England, America and other
great powers will be invited to con-
tribute, in the ratio of their tonnage,
with equivalent share in the control of
the canal.

The ParreII Commission

LONDON, December 11.-At meeting
of the ParnelI commission to-day, In
spector of Police Ardle testified in rela-
ton to the disturbed condition of
County Mayo. He said outrages in
creased after the issue of the anti-rent
manifesto. On cross.examination, he
said he knew secret societies existed,
but did not know government sup
ported such societies as counterforce
to the league.
David Freely testified that because he
paid rent Moonlighters visited his house
and shot his son. On cross-examina-
ton he said he had been member of
a local league until it was suppressed.
He had no reason to believe the league
was implicated in murder. The
league and priests belonging to it de-
nounced his sons murder. The league
did not object to the payment of rents
where % per cent. reduction had been
made.
Miss Thompson testified in detail
concerning the outrages committed
upon the men in her employ, on the
Hurley estate. On cross-examination
witness admitted that she had increased
the rentals with view to improve
ments which were to have been mace.
One increase amounted to 35 Per cent,
and the lowest increase was 10 per
