ELECTRIC LIGHT.-Mr. 7. Loring,
Electrician, and his representative
here, Capt. E. a. Burnside, appear
ed before the city council, at their
meeting last Wednesday night, for
the purpose of an informal confer
ence relative to getting the franchise
and contract from the council, for
putting in an electric light plant
here, for the purpose of lighting the
town by electric lights, and for
furnishing individuals with the
light for stores, hotels, halls, private
dwellings, &c, either by arc or in
candescent systems, or both. The
matter was presented to the consid-
Grafton of the Council by Council
man Hess. who introduced Mr.. Lor-
ing who is practical electrician of
some twelve years experience, hav-
ing been connected with all the
foremost electric light companies in
the United States, and as such has
put up and in successful operation,
plants in many sections of this coun-
try, and in Europe, South America,
British Manitoba, &c. Mr.. Loring
briefly informed the Council of the
object of his visit; stating the sys-
TEN he would use: the probable cost
per lamp (arc) for the town lights,
and also probable cost for both arc
and incandescent lights for private
parties. The matter viii come up
at the next meeting of the Council,
when a contract and franchise will
be submitted to the Council for their
action. An option has been secured
fjr station for the plant, in case
the action of the Council is favor
able, which we hope will be the
case The merchants and citizens
are requested to assist in the enter
prise Now we have a chance to
get good light cheaply, let US not
rest until it is secured. The lights
will be furnished at cost in the
reach of all. 4 number of mer-
chants and private citizens have al
ready promised to have these lights
put in their business houses and
dwellings. Boom the electric light
plant, and let all interested be at
the next meeting of the Council and
discuss the matter. Give this nee
essary enterprise your most hearty
cooperation.

a Coon SHow.-There is no snide
.or fake abeatProf. Hurlburt's show
of educated horses and dogs. He
exhibited them on the stage of
HeGfss New Opera House, Monday
night, to a crowded house. The
many performances of the horses,
who atseommand of the Professor,
amazed1the audience, for no one I'M
less he saE with his own eyes, would
believe that horse could be taught
to do such wonderful things. He
had but to speak to them by name
and they obeyed his every command.
The military drill and evoIutions of
the ten horses were wonderful, and
trained soldierseould not have went
through the drill better or with
more precision. This afternoon
tuesday, a matinee is given ex-
pressly for the ladies and children,
and no parent ought to keep his
child at home, for this show of
horses will be interesting and in
.structive to them Itisseldom they
have chance to see such a show as
this.

RoRBERY.-News has Just reached
us of one of the most daring rob-
berries ever committedin this county
On last Friday evening band of
cut Threats entered the residence of
L. S. Clagg, prominent farmer in
the lower end of this county, and
after throwing coal oil all over one
end of the house, they proceeded to
open trunks and closets, continuing
their search in every conceivable
place where money could be hidden.
They found $500 in gold and about
5000 in greenbacls and made good
their escape while the family were
extinguishing the flames which the
rascals had ignited, in order to
divert their attention from the vile
robbery which they had just com
pleted. Mrs. Turner, the mother
inlaw of Mr.. Clagg, received a large
pension but short time ago, and it
seems they were persons who were
wellacquainted with the circumstan-
ces. The money taken mostly be-
longed to Mrs. Turner, and she
being an invalid came near burning
to death, as she at the time was
confined to her bed and in a helpless
condition. No clue has yet been
found to the diabotical wretches,
but the country is being secured by
officers, and if caught they will be
summariIy dealt with.

Church music in our town is not
what it ought to be. Most of our
churches have choirs, but they don't
seem to do much; they will work
faithfully for while, but soon all
''drop out and the choir goes down.
We understand both the Presbyte-
rian churches are organizing new
choirs, and we wish them both much
success. The Episcopal church has
had more nearly continuous inter
est than perhaps any other here.
Seven years ago it's present leader,
Mr.. a., G. Van Glider, who is well
known by reputation as one of the
best-if not the best musical critic
and director in this part of the
State-took hold of it, and has since
done what he could with the mate
rial at hand. AT one time they had
quite good quartette choir, with
Will Spencer, and aftcrward Mr..
Rose, as bass. But poor Will was
called away to other scenes, and Mr..
Rose moved away from here, since
which time they have generally
been "baseless." A new interest
seems lately to be manifested; and
now that Mrs. Polsley volunteered
to add her full, rich alto to the
bright, strong sopranos of Mrs. Ed.
Sehon and the class, incisive tenor
of Mr.. Van Glider, we look for good
results from the organization. Miss
Ella Gibbons, who has been organist
for nearly twelve years, and most of
the time also the alto in the choir,
retains her position as organist, but
on account of throat trouble, has
given up singing altogether. They
need bass, certainly, and we have
it from good authority that one will
be procured soon.

The concert for the benefit of the
Episcopal Church has been post
poned till after Easter. Episcopa-
lians do not believe in having such
things during Lent, and as it was
impossible to- get the opera, house
ready before the beginning of Lent,
the concert had to go over. We
feel entirely sure that our people
win be gamers by this, in having a
much better concert when it finally
comes off,

DEATH OF CAPT. HoLLAND.-The
many friends of Capt. Gabe Hol-
land, popular conductor on the
Ohio River Railroad, will be panied
to hear of his death, which sad
event occurred at his home in
Wheeling. on Friday last, after a
two weeks illness from typhoid
pneumonia. Capt. Holland was
well and flvorably known to our
people, and was popular with all
who knew him, and his death will
be widely and sincerely mourned.
His funeral took place on last Sun
day and he was buried in Green
wood Cemetery, at Wheeling, and
was attended by large eoncourse
of relatives and friends. All rail
roads leading into Wheeling sent
special trains on Sunday morning to
carry friends to pay their last re-
sPects to him. We extend our
heartfelt sympathies to his bereaved
wife and family.
