THIEVES AT WORK AGAIn.
The Church of the Immaculate Concep
 tion Entered and Robbed.

1he ShurCh oL Gne l"maCulaCe COncSp-
 tion Entered and Robbed.
 This morning when the Rev Father Walsh entered the church of the Immacu- late Conception he found that thieves had visited the church during the night and robbed three of the four contribution boxes, which are stationed near the en- trance for the reception of money, which is given to the poor. The boxes are of black walnut and were locked with cham pion lever No locks. The staples hold ing the locks were wrenched off and the sacriligious thieves helped themselves to the contents. The box at the east side of the church showed evidences of an unsuc- cessful attempt to pry off the brass staple, and the lock was marked in the attempt to pick it. The robbers entered the church by climbing upon the porch that covers the entrance to the basement and breaking the stained glass window where the, steel rod keeps it locked. After raising this rod it was only the work of minute to open the window so that mans body could very easily pass through. The aisles of the church are carpeted with mating, enabling the thieves to move about with thorough examination was made but none of the vestments or any of the church ar ticles were missing. The boxes usually contain quite large sum of money after Sunday services and are emptied every Monday. Yesterday they were not emptied. The church has been entered on three former occasions, and the contribu- ton boxes relieved of their contents.

RELEASED FROM PRISON.
The Prisoners Pardoned by the Stat
 Board.

Board.
 Three prisoners, Arthur Bennett, Edward Geoble and Oliver Budde, bid farewell to the state prison yesterday, having been re- leased by the board of pardons The case of Bennett excited considerable interest at the time of the hearing before the board a month ago. He is now 29 years of age and has been in prison for twelve years. Ben nett's home was in Ridgeield, the home of Governor Lounsbury, who is we'll acquaint- ed with all the facts of the crime for which the youthful burglar was sentenced to fifteen years imprisonment The father and mother were thieves and the boys took to it naturally. In 1876 there was series of burglaries in Ridgefeld. and Arthur, then but 16, and his brother, Q few years older, were arrested for the crimes. Arthur. ill his statement before the board said he pleaded guilty to save his father His brother is now in the prison Bennett shows the effect of his long Imprisonment. By the good behavior allowance, he had but about one year more to serve It is probable that he will join his mother in l Philadelphia. Geoble and Budde were sentenced ill 1883, the former for eight years and the latter for seven years, for robbery. The ringleader escaped at the time, but since the petitions of Geoble and Budde, last December, he has been caught and is now serving n term in prison. Tho two men have expressed determination to lead upright lives and become good citizens.

COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL.

The Mayor Hands in a veto-Alderman Munson Creates Some Excitement No Election for Police Commissioners.
 Only two matters of any importance came up before the court of common council last evening. The first was the mayors veto of the vote passed to pay the damages arising from the layout of Vine street. The veto said that there had never been a report made by the board of compensa- tion which found favor with the court of common council and favored recon mitment and a summoning of all parties interested to appear before the board. The recommendation was adopted. The vote ordering the police commis- ! sioners to procure plans for new lookup, and go ahead with the work, passed by the council at the last meeting was brought up as the second matter of importance. Economist Munson jumped up and said Y: ''I want to say word. I have only been member of this board year. Was this committee who have made this report ever appointed by this board By what authority do they come in here and make this report. If you accept the report of the police commissioners you can accept the report of a base ball club. Both of the police commissioners are by a singular coincidence members of the court of com mon council and men whom l very much respect, but by what authority they come in here and make this report fail to see. "
 Clerk Kilduff: ''This vote was passed by the council June H."
 MT Munson: If that board does wrong it is no reason why we should. l fail to see how they can act on such a report.
 Mayor Boughton: ''It appears in the miutes of the council"
 MT Munson: 'I object to that report"
 The clerk read the vote of the council and motion was made and carried to table it.
 The proposed extension of Liberty street to Bank street was treated in like man. her.
 The balloting for police commissioners resulted, in the aldermanic chamber: c. B Webster, 8; T. R. Martin, ?; Thomas Hal pin, l. In the council chamber T. R. Martin, 6; Thomas Halpin, 4; c. S. Chap man, ,; c. B. Webster, 1; consequently there was no choice.

 ages for Libel.

We sell them at the lowest possible prices and most favorable terms. Weber, Shoninger, Emerson < Wheelock are our leaders any one of which will in every way give satisfaction and prove a source of joy in any family. Among the things we do not do is this Never annoy people, who are not ready to buy, or lie about our neighbors goods, but are willing to accord all 8 fair valuation in the market. Neither do we run after customer who has purchased of other agents, trying to make them dissatisfied and are yet liberal enough not to d" all the Business. No Miniature Pianos carried in our pockets or Tuning Ham, mers thrown in. We prefer the principle of every farmer to his milk cans, and mechanic to his trade and have yet a friendly, feel manage our own business honestly, fairly and le ultimately; pay dollar for dollar promptly; fur nish our own Bank Vaults for Leases taken from Installment Customers without the aid of Sher- ifs to collect on the same. Thirty years standing before the people as Company, is sufficient guarantee of our stability. Those Shoninger New Style Upright Pianos are elegant in design and finish. We make them and get the price way down. Warrant them frst-cass. All the rest of the dealers are blowing about them, which proves that they are A No 1, otherwise no abuse would be necessary.
